I got several emails from various sources... Each stated all that was said... I wasn't the only person that got this info... apparently, someone named 'queve' in this board at MK5.Org, also got this info, which is extremely likely to be true, although i don't agree with friendships at all.

as long as they have REIKO/KAHN situation by having them in the same game.
also a background story with Ermac,Reiko,Drahmin,ShaoKahn, and the Dragon King and all of them are playable and very strong.

i love frindships!

Actually Boon didn't say that it was because of the funny aspect, as Brutalities and Animalities have nothing funny about them. He said he wanted to go back to MK's roots, and escape from the game ending up centered around the end of the match instead of the fighting itself. He also wanted to avoid the stupid exageration the Fatalties had come to (Fatalities, Friendships, Babalities, Animalities, Brutalities...what more would they come up with) and just keep it simple.

Although, the funny side was alread mentioned as bad for MK by some, if not most, fans.

I would agree for Friendships, but with a different meaning to it (which would probably mean getting a new name, like Accidentality, or Casuality or something like that), which would be, instead of some stupid thing, it would be like accidents which would kill the opponent. Eg. Quan Chi juggling both Broadswords, one would hit the other and one of them would fly in the direction of the opponent and...Casuality! Or Scorpion started playing the flute, the Spear would start to dance (you know, like snake hipnotism), then Scorpion would miss a note and the Spear would go on a frenzy spearing the opponent's body various times...Casuality!

hahaha that could actually be pretty cool sputnik7.

Friendships were gay, keep them the fuk out.

MK 6 should NOT have Friendships in it...to me it would ruin the game...i LOVED mkda's DARK tones...it just helps the game and storyline alot...if they can keep it dark, they can thicken the storyline by killing off characters that need to be killed to enrich the storyline...HOWEVER...as MUCH as i hated the character Drahmin...he was AWFUL to play as, IMO with NO combos...but...his ending and storyline was unique...and to me that would merit him returning in MK 6...just because...i would love to know who he transformed too in his ending...if it someone we know from past MK's...the original Kung Lao? Jerrod? the possibilities are endless. I think his character could open alot of doors, which has to be why they added him to the character roster for MKDA.

Brutalities Wrote: All you guys are full of s***. As I recall, Ed said that the reason friendships and all that other crap is not returning is because they wanted to shy away from all the funny stuff. Now, that was said for mk 4 and mk:da, now you honestly think that he is going to make the stupid mistake of bringing crap like that back again???? NO way man, use your head..... Nobody on this damn planet knows anything about Mk6 except for the Midway development Team, and you people know as much as anybody else does.... And that is nothing!!!! So don't get peoples hopes up, because once the game comes out (if it will even come out) and it has nothing that you or anybody else mentioned in it then people will think it sucks..... Except for me, because no matter how bad future mk games will look and play, I will embrace it in my X-Box collection no questions asked..... Because I am a true fan!!!!!LET THE KOMBAT KONTINUE!!!!! queve Wrote: Actually all those rummors are credit from Murdoink, and I shared them with many sites, and yes, they are very lickely true!

Feel better now that you have blurted out your insides Mr 46 visits???

And another thing hotshot! Before you go and "Dis" the likes Of Murdoink, Slica and Queve (all who I respect and who are all great people )who were here on this forum long long before you even got your first childish rant n rave post up and who have done shitloads more for the MK community than you'll ever do just be careful what you say mr 46 visits OK?

I was thinking about them friendship, at first I thought: No friendships, I prefer more characters and fatality's.

But now I think MK 6 should have friendships if all characters have 2 fatality's and there are at least 3 pit fatality's!

Just imagine the possibility of choosing between a friendship and (2) fatality, it gives you the option to kill or to let your opponent stay allive.

I don't know about anyone else...but for Mk 2 and 3...i never really DID friendships...in tournament play...and for the most part, i usually only did friendships ONE time...and that was naturally the first time i did them...just so i could see what the friendship was...for each character myself...after that, i never used them, or cared for them...it's just nothing special...instead of putting friendships in...either just put another fatality in...or create a new ality.
