Fatality that resembles Brutality (Li Mei's MKDeception) or Animality (Liu Kang & Scorpion's MK4/Gold), but a Fatality = ROOLZ

I guess that way is better. I liked the Brutalities but they were repetitve and there were too many to learn.

One or two as a Fatality will be great! Li Meis looks awesome!

Maybe consider it a brutality if you can connect the few biggest combos to finsh the opponent and they just explode or loose a head or a few body parts. That would be better my opinion than having a button combo for brutalities.

what happends in these fatalitys

freindships
babality
fergality

friendships= fatality that shows friendship(e.g. shang tsung makes rainbow)

babality=turns opponent into a baby

Fergality=special fatality that raiden does in mk2 that turns him into some guy named fergusson.

Brutalities would actually be a fantastic addition to a future Mortal Kombat game.

Consider the style branch system. With two hand-to-hand styles and a weapon style, it would be possible to make them unique an varied for every character...

Throw in a signature move or button combination and we could see some truly original brutalities. Sub Zero could include his freezing abiltities, Ermac could use his mind, Sindel could scream, etc....


Just some thoughts.

it would be cool if you could somehow finish it off, like at the end off the brutality, the opponent should be lying on the floor in agony and then you should press a button, or a kombination and it should a certain thing, for instance quickly tapping the attack 1 and 2 button could activate the characters fatality (theyd pull the opponent up off the ground and stand them up and perform it) or holding down attacks 3 and 4 to pull them up and impale them with a weapon or do a secret fatality or sumthin

Thats pretty Sweet man I likes it much! Like once you beat the sh*t out of them you can do a Fatality or like you said impale them with a weapon attack and leave them there and maybe taunt after word good stuff man!!

WORDLIFE!!! you can see me!

thats a great collection to my thugnomics.

LOL

what u know John Cena thats cool i guess we do have something in commun huh small world.

Have you ever played Killer Instinct?

People are looking at this in a COMPLETELY wrong way.

First of all, I'm going to start off by saying that I loved brutalities even though they were similar. You can only be so unique in a 2d game. The question that was asked was, would you like them to come back, not did you like them in previous MK's. Who says they have to blow up at the end now just because they did ten years ago?

In another new thread on the forum someone stated that a new magazine quoted Boon at hinting at A new "ality." Now, I don't know if he means brand spanking new or if it could be something returning. But, if you ask me, Li Mei's looks an awful lot like she's doing an AWESOME looking Brutality. In my opinion her fatality is one of two things:

1. After she beats you up she finishes you off by ripping off your leg and knocking your head off (the other fatality on the end of this one)

or

2. It is an actual brutality being done.

You might be curious about my reasoning to number one. Well, the reason I think it might be this is because, if you watch the first fatality trailer they released, it shows the beginning of each persons fatality at the beginning of the video, and the end of each one at the end. Just because the end of the fatality in the video might be against a different character doesn't matter at all. It is like that for a couple of them, they probably did that to throw you off, give it some thought.

At E3, 11/12 characters that were playable we have seen Fatalities for. The only character we haven't seen a fatality for is Ashrah (from those choosable). Now, why would they show TWO of Li Mei's fatalities, one similar to a brutality and her other one and NONE of Ashrah's?

This doesn't make sense to me. Either it is one giant fatality, or one of them is a Brutality.
I Sincerely doubt they would show BOTH of Li Mei's Fatalities already. Why would they do that?

And for anyone thats going to say It's Mileena that does that fatality, no matter which way you argue it, that means they either showed 2 from Mileena or 2 from Li Mei and I don't think they would show 2 of any one character.

My god, think of how awesome a Brutality really could be. Breaking limbs, necks, backs, cutting off random limbs, they could be unique so easily. It wouldn't surprise me to see Brutalities back, as Boon always has tricks up his sleeve, and I'd SURE as hell take them over Hari Kari's. But don't listen to me Boon, include Brutalities along with Hari Kari's and at least 2 Fatalities each and I'll buy 20 copies of your game. Okay, maybe just 2 for each system =).

The point that I'm trying to make I guess is that you guys should be more open minded about things. If you give it some thought, and ask me, Animalities and Babalities were MUCH more unrealistic than Brutalities. Brutalities always had the most potential IMO, even more so than alot of the crappy fatalities they've created in the past.

Please bring back Brutalities and do it well. Please, Please, Please, PLEASE!!!

I agree with what your saying! I loved the Brutlaities, but as I said before, just a few would be nice. Having them end without the exoplosion would be far more realistic and I like the idea of Li Meis Fatalities being one huge Brutality! That would be awesome! Hopefully, they'll listen to your ideas! I think they're great!

Thank you nough said..

This dude says it right here. The way to keep brutalities from getting stale and repetitive is to incorporate the character's style. Ex. Scorpion can beat his opponent senseless, then while they're staggering all bloody and beaten up, he backs up and throws his spear. He jerks it back and the body flies apart! Also, Hotaru can finish with his grasshopper kick and Liu Kang with his bike kick! Think of brutalities as "tenderizing the meat" before delivering the signature coup de grace .
