I honestly thought the Krypt was a nice addition to MK5, but most of the stuff, honestly, was crap. About 40 pages of comic books to blow my cash on? Ugh. In MK6, how about some GOOD stuff... like a playable version of MK2? FMV unlockable endings? Movie clips? Unlockable Fatalities? Unlockable Weapons? Etc. What do you think? Fatality.

I too thought the Krypt was pretty cool. But I much rather unlock only character's, arena's, alternate costumes, character profiles, movies, and etc. The pics and comics are junk in my opinion.

The crypt should certainly return, it should be made as large as possible (including pictures and other useless stuff). They should hide some boxes, unlockable by chess-like stuff (game withinn the crypt).

Someone a few posts up in this thread nailed it. A smaller one. No retarded extras like pictures of the cast posing in various martial arts styles. Or pics of the arcade casing of the MK 4 game. You know what I mean?

The krypt was cool as hell, but it was alot of wasted space with the useless shit they packed it with.

no fan art, only exceptional concept art, and no 676 koffins, maybe 200 or so. Just fill it up with useful crap (arenas, characters, hidden costumes, extra fatalities (extra as in addition to the 2 and pits we're all expecting) etc etc etc).

How awesome would it be if you could get a playable version of MK2 from the Krypt.

I liked the krypt idea. It was new & different.
But yeah, maybe there are too many

However I don't think that they should only be good stuff in them. Sure enough those comic books are just plain pathetic, but i do think it is a good idea to have some silly stuff in some of the krypts. Maybe booby trapped or something. So instead of just giving stuff, they actually take koins away from you, or maybe only giving you half energy for a couple of fights. Somethign negative to make it more challenging.

Everything good doesn't make it as exciting.

I would like to see a smaller Krypt, for 2 reasons:
- it would only include the REALLY good stuff (no more MK Arcade pics, or a test for Reptile's Tongue Animation and other stuff like that);
- some secrets, like Secret Characters (not the unlockable ones) and Secret Modes, and stuff, would be unlocked by finishing something, and then using a combination in a screen (eg. to get the Final Boss, you would have to finish Konquest with every character, open every Koffin, and then perform Scorpion's Fatality on the "Press Start" Screen), or through performing some special requests (like getting to the boss without changing styles, in which case you would fight some special character, and if you beat him, you can later play as him in Vs. Mode).

Also, I would like for the Krypt's unlockable characters not to be directly unlocked, but would instead activate a slot in a Challenge Mode, which would be a Mode that would let us fight a specific character in a Single CPU Match. After beating an unlockable character in Challenge Mode, we would finally have access to him in every other mode!

I'd like to see the krypt return with similar proportions, but much more in the way of quality.

I'm a big comic book fan so I had no problem with that, but did get a little tired of the same old concept sketches.
They're great to see, but would be better suited as a free section unto their own.

I'd definitely like to see more video and FMV sequences to unlock; more secret characters [without losing from the already available roster]; and perhaps some more mini-games.

Yeah, fill it up with cooler things. Maybe put the most gruesome of fatalities or cooler weapons in the krypt. Also, they should make the grim reaper go around pointing at the koffin you would like to purchase. (That was the original idea-but lack of polygons prevented it in MK:DA) I also think they should put the Dragon King as a playable character in the krypt. But make it sorta expensive.

I couldn't agree more with your ideas!! That sounds really cool!! It would also be cool if in the krypt it had some super secret codes and menus hidden in it and only opened with a specific order combination of coffins opened.

I think that the Krypt was a great idea and should return in MK6. The 676 coffins was fine, just hide more good stuff inside like fatalities.

I agree with most of what has been said already, the krypt should return but have extra Fatalities, extra areans,hidden charaters past and present,alt costumes maybe even a CGI movie for every character past and present showing their back story from the beginning to MK6 instead of the useless stuff like pics on the mk arcade machines or MK Staff pics etc. the making of section was good maybe they could do one for MK6 but have more of it included in the krypt along with any Music videos etc

I think the krypt should be as big as it is, with some more interesting stuff (hidden fatalities, etc), plus some stuff like concept art that some may find interesting, but show more of a character evolution with each, instead of having 15 separate Mavado sketches. Personally I would find it interesting to see how different character designs evolved...plus things like Dairu concept sketches that never made it, to give us an idea of possible new characters to come...

I also think that, with the exception of key items like unlockable characters and arenas, items should be placed randomly, say, for each profile, so you couldn't look online for a krypt "key." I think this would make it more interesting and, to an extent, challenging.

Definately keep the krypt, and keep it BIG, but with lots of meat. It does so much for the replay value of the game.

I just had another thought. They should put things in the krypt like FMV movies that are part of the story, but not in the intro or endings. For example, in the Adema video in MKDA, there are scenes from a fight between Quan Chi and Scorpion. I dunno where they got this footage from, unless it was in commercials or something, but we all know there was a fight between Quan and Scorp just before the Deadly Alliance was officially born. I would like to see fight videos like this in the krypt, or even 3D renderings of important fights from other games, like Scorp vs Sub in MK1, or Liu Kang vs Shang Tsung (also MK1) etc.
