theres a lot of talk about mk6. most of it is about the fighting engine, fatalities, ringouts, etc....

but the one thing i really want to see back is the point scores that were in the orginal mk. mk2 removed the scores, and we never saw them again. i really want to see the point feature back in mk...it could add to the "records" dep. like most wins in a row, most koins in a single fight, most points, etc. and it could bring mk back to compete on a tournament level.

certin attacks could be worth certin points. like, if you hit attack 1 with scorpion, that could be 20 points (or higher/lower)..but if sub-zero hits attack one it could be 10 points (or higher/lower) so, that would add to the gameplay if there was a "high score" mode or something. so, it would be possible fo rplayer 2 to loose, and yet still have the better score because of the attacks he/she used. so, if there were koins wagered on the fight, player 2 would win them even though he/she lost cause they had the better score.

but if it says "finish him" and your loosing by a large number of points and dont want the opponent to win your koins, do a fatality and get the fatality bonus wich could be like 100,000 or something like that.

no matter how it works, i just wanna see it return. how do the rest of you feel about this?

No offense or anything, but you actually paid attention to the point meter?

Or THINKING that no one could beat your score.
By the way, I too, have always wondered why they got rid of the point meter.

no, i said knowing. i had the highest on an mk1 arcade for 2 years. and the only reason my score was "lost" is cause they replaced it with an mk3 arcade...i even have a vid of it. a vid you ask? yes. i was at a birthday party and made sure my mom got my score on tape grin
anyway, back to the topic please.

i like ur idea because me and my freinds always argue who's better and this would be a great way to solve it. and also it would be another intersing feature to the game and wouldent take that much effort to put in

I think, too, that the points should be back. It brings a whole new level of competitiveness into the game.

Mine too. Get rid of the Krypt and Koin system. Seriously that's how they could solve the "secrets" issue. Get a certain score using certain moves an voila, unlockable character. Or fight a hidden character. Not to mention the point system really shows who plays the best. Not just a win streak but how they play and how well they play.

i agree..but would like the krypt and koins to remain. koins could be just for wagering purposes...and the koffins could be opened by getting the score number rather than the koin number...het, as long as its in, im happy.

Why should the 'K'oin system stay just for wagering? I mean, you aren't using them to get anything. It would be a waste of space for something else.

I think the point system would be a great thing to do for MK6 to make it more of a competition with your friends. :) Good idea Scorpio

I understand what you are trying to say and I think it's not a bad idea. I'm not sure if it should be in MK6 but I like your idea.
