I just got the newest EGM in the mail today, and it had a small article on MK:Deception. It stated a bunch of stuff we already know. The only thing that stood out was that they stated that the roster will be made up of 24 characters. I'm not sure if anyone else knew that yet, but it's new to me.

For pictures, it showed Sub-Zero (w/ponytail) kicking Ermac into the grinder, and another pic of Ermac facing off against Baraka.

Top 3 Reasons not to ask for scans:
1) I don't have a scanner.
2) I'm not going to betray this site.
3) I'm fairly certain ~Crow~ would pillage my house if I did.

That's about it.

The article didn't mention any additional confirmed characters. Keep an eye on Scorpio's MK:D FAQ thread for updates, as he'd doing an excellent job keeping track of all the aspects of MK:D.

You guys seem down? This isn't MK Trilogy, whats wrong with 24 characters.

Hopefully this excludes any hidden characters.

There was 21 characters in MKDA not counting Blaze,Mokap,and Moloch so it's not to bad I hope they bring back Smoke with only 13 characters left it's not seeming likely but I still have hope

Agreed, I hope there are at least four or five hidden characters that aren't included on that list of 24. That's not a bad number, but I was kinda hoping for about 30. Oh well, if they're all good, well rounded characters, then I'll definitely be happy.

I have no problem with it. I think 24 is a solid number for a 3D fighter.

Maybe thats not so bad. If they have some good secret characters and bosses, itll be cool i guess. I hope most of the characters will be new or ones that were not featured in MKDA.

Hopefully, the article was referring to 24 playable characters from the start, with several hidden characters that are to be unlocked.
Sounds interesting
If most of the original characters return there doesn't seem to be much room for growth

The 24 will most likely include all playable characters (from the start) minus secret characters and bosses.

Well this is my first post ever so here I go... I think 24 characters would be alright, just as long as they have plenty of interesting special moves and more fatalities than in the previous game Deadly Alliance. I think that having a larger number of characters would mean more mimic-ing, like many characters having the same moves or similar fatalities.

It seems like 24 characters would be plenty for a game of this magnitude.

Think back to the days of Mortal Kombat II.. It's hailed as the best in the series and it only featured twelve characters.

We still have to think within the realm of reality, here. Just because technology has advanced so far since Mortal Kombat II doesn't mean that the development cycle would be any longer. Be thankful that you're getting what you are..

Then again, the development of the game isn't over, either. Who is to say that they won't include more characters before the ship date?

well dudes, the quantity doesn't mean quality, remember mortal kombat wchich have 7 characters only and how wet your underwears were, and remember mk2 which contained 12 characters and made me crap my pants, clean them just to have room for more crap, and it was so amazing, 24 looks fine, that makes at lesast 48 fatalities which doubles the number that mkda had, plus suicides, plus stage fatalities, making it bigger!!!wink

You guys do realize we're getting more characters than we got in MKDA? 24 is a very solid amount, and it'll probably end up being 26 with hidden characters, then even breaking into 27 if the boss is unlockable.

I don't see why everyone is disappointed. I would like to see more than 24 contenders, but we have to be a bit reasonable.

There's a 100% chance in my book that MK:D will have at least two secret characters. Every MK game has had at least two secret characters.

MK:DA had 21 characters, 2 secret characters, and a non-playable boss. MK:D is going to have 24 off the bat, Not sure if any of them are bosses. But then like i said, I know that there's going to be at least 2 secret characters. So i'm more then happy with the numbers.
