Here goes more!:

I think its time for a totally new and improved character select screen.

Please note that the 2 fallowing drawings are just an idea on how the new select screen should be. I just want to point out that this were done fast and painted in a hurry, ONLY to SHOW you the idea.

I can draw very good, I love art! But I did this in a hurry since I really wanted to post them, plus, it was scanned by a friend and the colors are kind a messed up but the draw is still the SAME.

This first one shows the main idea I had first. The character select screen is ROUND like a big GOLD/ANCIENT circle, with cool and fancy decorations in it (the ancient letters and stuff) that you can make SPIN. Notice the 2 red arrows in the name of Sonya Blade. You make the circle spin in order to change your character.

I did not have the time to draw each characters face so thats why I only wrote the names. You choose how you like it best, with the characters faces in the squares the circle holds, or just the names.

In the center of the big ancient circle, we will see the image of your character (This time Sonya) and their info like it was in Deadly Alliance, BUT, I also think the character should be ANIMATED. Move like in Soul Calibur or something, but they should be animated in some way. Fire can burn in the back of the character, but I think each character SHOULD have a UNIQUE animated background.

--------------------------------

--------------------------------

This idea I had right after I finish the first draw. The character select screen SHOULD START like this. CLOSED and SEALED by steel, metal, or something. You cant see any character but the dragon logo and a few decorations.

After 3 seconds of viewing this screen, the STEEL boxes will OPEN and the DRAGON in the center spins and MOVES, opening in a cool way the sealed boxes revealing the characters inside.

ALSO, notice that in this pic, the cool fancy DECORATIONS are not there, but when the circle opens, they will start to GROW or appear MAGICALLY in some cool way, as if they were gold living plants or poison-ivy.

Remember the first movie? When Shang Tsung took Sonya to Outwolrd by going into that portal? Just remember the way the little dragon logo opened and started to spin, allowing Tsung to enter with Sonya after she yelled NO!.

The same thing will happen with THE CENTER of this circle. It will open like it did in the movie, but the little boxes were the characters faces are supposed to be, will OPEN in a more normal way.

Also notice that there are some locks in 2 of the squares, this are the ones in the other pic that have the ? symbols in them. Now, you can choose 2 ways: we can have ALL the metal/steel boxes open to reveal the characters and the ? symbols.

OR ALL the metal/steel boxes will open to reveal the characters BUT NOT the ones that are with the ? symbol, you will not know whats behind these steel/metal boxes until you unlock them with a key or in someway. Then they will normally open/unlock.

They are almost finished! They look amazing! I hope he finishes them soon! Excellent work _drazz_! I love them! This are past ones.

Badass idea! I love it! I'd like the circles with the character pics in! It must be done! It reminds me so much of Stargate! The circle spinning and having the MK Dragon open up is a nice touch man.

Aye, awesome ideas. If the circle were big enough, I imagine it could contain both players in a versus match. Very cool concept. I am a huge SG-1 fan and it does remind me of the gate a bit.

That's definitely a good idea queve. Good drawings as well. I think it would be easy to have two players in there also. Just make their larger images smaller, and put a red VS between the two. Maybe even have the characters glaring at one another.

I didn't overly like the character select screen in MK:DA. Don't get me wrong, I didn't dislike it either. I just thought that the pictures could've been bigger for all of the characters. The select screen, for some reason, has always been my favorite pictures to look at in this series. I hope they do something like queve's suggestion, or something completely new to the series. Animate the characters (like you said) as well. Good ideas man!

Great ideas Queve. I liked that part in the movie that you are talking about. That is a great idea to use for the character select screen. I liked the idea of haveing it open up to reveal everything. Would be sweet to fit both ppl inside of it for the VS. screen. I would love to see this in the next game.

is it just me, or do i only recall seeing 1 question mark..and almost every character from MKDA... i hope this aint what it looksl ike, cause if deception has all the MKDA characters instead of new ones...im probably not going to even bother with it, what good is making a sequal if its gonna have the same characters in it...?

Good idea but I don't think the 2 player screen would look too hot. Both characters would have to be alot smaller since you have to account for both players having their info on the screen too.

It would be awesome for 1 player and would work for 2 player also but wouldn't look good for 2 player.

But I will give you credit towards the 1 player screen.

Make some changes like make 2 smaller circles and make the name parts smaller and then the person's picture in the circle could be bigger. Or make it exactly like GG's 2 person select screen but to me that is not original enough.

You stupid noob, that wasnt the real select screen just an example of wat queve wants it to look like. There is only 6 ppl from MKDA in deception, where have you been, and 8 new fighters. which means more new fighters then DA fighters.

I think it is alright. I personally liked the one from MKDA. It was pretty cool and different from all the others. but i like the circular idea. Im not sure if i have seen something like that already. Im not sure. But its pretty good.

the idea is pretty good. just need to fix it a bit if anyone wants to play it with vs mode. expand it a bit or somethin. what would be cool though to add is when you pick your character, they give off a move like of gratitude of picking them such as a ending move they perform in game after a round, or a sort of fighters bow. other than that, pretty good =p

I love the concept. And yeah it does remind me of the Stargate. You might want to change the thread title to keep people's hopes from rising though.
I had a concept awhile back for a character select screen.It might not be as cool as yours but it's something I made up awhile back.
1)The screen starts out black.
2)After a few seconds you here"Mortal Kombat!"
3)The dragon in the back Lights up in flames, like in the movie opening.)
4)The dragon's eye glows red and the metal form shatters.
5)It turns to the screen and turns it's paws over.
6)A blue flame envelopes the screen for a second from top to bottom. As it fades out the camera zooms in on one of the dragons eyes to show the character select screen.
7)When you select a character the camera zooms back out to the dragon's paws and a giant flame appears with the character coming out of it.
8)The character would do some fighting pose before the screen changes.
There would be flames in the background and foreground with a black back drop.
For two players the camera zooms in on both the dragon's eyes to show the character select screen. And there would be two flames on the dragon's paws for the two players.

I know it sounds long but all this takes place within a couple of seconds.

For the two player mode, instead of having smaller screen or two circles, you can have player one select his character first. Then when player two selects their character, player one's character turns around to show player two's.(Kind of like selecting the alt costumes in MK4 when you would flip the characters pick around)

I think you got a cool idea. I know it is also being discussed that some people would like to see a 3d type select screen. I kinda had an idea to expand apon yours.

You use your select screen as a navigation peice. There are statues of all the warriors arranged in a cirucle. As you move left or right, your select screen would move. The selection screen would be in the middle of the screen, and the outter edges would also rotate depending on the current character you are on. However the inside would be transparent. You would see the statue as well as a little tablet, that would show alliance, height, weight, whatever. Then when you choose to select this character, the select screen would glow in the aura in the color of the character. So for sub-zero it would glow blue. Then the select screen would lock on sub-zero. And the blue light would shoot to the center of the select screen, and the once transparent select screen would show your character in full motion, doing a few quick moves, and then posing. The effect would somewhat be as though your character was "warping" in through a portal or something.

Sorry my discription is probbly not the greatest.. It's a simple idea.. im gonna try and draw it out, to give everyone a better idea.
