I didn't like his look much in DA either. I prefer him looking more like he did in MK4, still ninja-ish but very reptilian. We haven't seen the end of Reptile.

I miss the green machine, the way he was in mk2 sweet evil orbs of doom. I can hear the sound in my head of that game. and I miss the invisable reptile as well. what up with the ball roll. I don't think we will see him again.

Reptile's look was based on a concept character named Timat. If it weren't for that concept I assume that Reptile would have never been in Deadly Alliance.

I agree, I liked Reptile's classic moves. The invisibility move and the green orbs made Reptile such a unique character back in Mortal Kombat II.

I Loved his DA look but i still miss the MK 2 look , And Reptile has been confirmed my ed boon confirmed him in an interview

I've said this before... overall my favorite look for reptile was definitely when he was a ninja butI do like the idea of him evolving (or deevolving whichever way you wish to look at it). I did like his DA look and think that they should keep making him more monsterous because it brings in alot of interesting opportunities for ferocious moves. I do defintiely think that the classic moves he had from mk 2 should return though.

personally i liked the MK4 look(The ninja/lizard look). I agree with everyone, the classic moves should return.

i liked his mk2 look better then his mk:da look because it was really cool with his ninja out fit he looked wicked and i hope he comes back like that look

Yeah, i want reptile back with the ninja/retilian look. And the special moves.

I like how Reptile was more monsterous looking in MK:DA and if he returns they should have him be like that but wearing a ninja costume but make it a unique ninja costume that Reptile would look wicked in.

Peace Out

Classic moves, definitely bring them back. If anything, in 3D they could do something really cool with a cloak.

The force ball I can handle gone, but it was really cool. Had a tactical use when you did a slow one then a fast one.

I like the idea of having his alternate give him his ninja form back, with scaley skin like his alternate in mk4.

And I HATED the MKDA look. I tried so so so hard to like him in that game..but the costume design was just something out of the power rangers with that bulky outfit and huge pendant belt. His webbed fingers and pointy snout also hurt his look. The alternative caveman costume is hardly redeeming.

But anyways, that's my steam. I'm sure we'll see Reptile back in an essence, but it is his time to stop being a screwed over little henchman and start being a threat.

While I will always prefer the old Reptile to the MKDA Reptile, I wouldn't mind if they implemented a morph ability so he could switch from one to the other at will, with completely different move sets for each form. Would please everyone I think.

In MK:DA reptile's look was ok but they should have stuck him in the MK2 ninja outfit and had his spines and tail poking out of it. That would've looked badass. As for the old moves I'd like to see invisibility.

ravensillusion Wrote: I don't know about you guys, but reptile' s look was not that good in DA, and I think that it kinda sucks that he's not gonna be in the game anymore after what happened with the Dragon king.

I disagree. I thougt his MKDA look kiked ass. IMO, it was his best form yet. I cant wait to see him de-evolve even more. All he needed in MKDA was a good set of special moves.

I think Midway regrets that they made Reptile's ending, what it was...

Invisibility would be soooooo cool now that Mortal Kombat is in 3D. In 2D all you had to do was throw a projectile and you'd have a pretty good chance of nailing him. But with 3D movement, Reptile's location won't be as predictable.

As for his look, I too prefer the MK4 incarnation. In MK2/UMK3 he just looked like a green clone of Scorp and Sub-Z; in MKDA he looked like he belonged in a pet shop. I don't know if he'll be back in MKD. I hope he will be, with all his old moves - including invisibility.

i think reptile's look in MK:DA was not good,he reminds me of Lizard from soul calibur.i prefer his MK4 look,reptile skin and ninja outfit.but in MK:D he is the Dragon King,so it's unclear for me if he's gonna be a playable character.

peace....

I actually agree with the consensus going here...I liked Reptile better in his MK4 home version alternate, with reptilian skin/ninja outfit. If I recall correctly, I beleive Boon said that Reptile will appear 'more dragonlike than ever' in Deception. Reptile was NOT killed in his ending.

I don't think Boon actually ever said anything about Reptile...I think Midway is thinking of a way to get away from that ending ever happening. More so, the egg just hatching instead of the DK being born in Reptile.

Well in my opinion, Reptile's look in MK:DA was not how it could have been. The official Devs said they meant for him to look like what he did in MK4, more ninjaish. (That mean I didn't like it) And Reptile probably will be back in MK6, they would have announced it. For example, the komfirmed characters. But as of now Reptile is probably NOT going to be in it but it's almost 50/50 cuz of what with the dragon king and crap.

I loved reptiles look in MKDA. I'm glad hes not a ninja anymore, because to me, if he was, there would just be to many ninjas and things would get all nasty again. I have to admit though, i loved his MK4 look, the reptile face with the ninja outfit....it kicked ass. But i like how hes evolving into something different, something more animal-ish, leaving behind his ninja styles.

The whole looking more like a dragon thing intrigues me. If thats the case and he doesnt turn out to be the DK, i would love to see him looking more like a dragon, something more bigger and tougher. Perhaps like that he could be a sub boss.

I loved his look in MKDA,I think it was good to get away from his ninja look.With Sub-Zero,Scorpion,Ermac,Noob,Mileena and so on we have more then enough ninjas.I love the ninja's and all(Sub-Zero is my Fav)but I liked the move on Boon's part.I do think they should have gave Reptile his ninja look for his second outfit however,cuz his second one kinda sucked.

Yes well I'm a fan of war movies I think it's cool for people to look like each other at least a bit.
So, if Reptile could've look more ninjaee it would be cool since there's:
Rain
Sub-Zero
Scorpion
Ermac
Smoke
And of course Reptile
Blaze

If reptile is back hopefully they don't make him as cartoony looking as they did in DA. His DA look just didn't look menacing enough to be taken seriously.

Reptile should look more sinister, but I never want to see him as a ninja again. It was only a disguise for him, it's run it's course, there's enough ninjas around.
