Any confirmed info on how the stage weapons will work? I was wondering if picking up a weapon would give you a fourth fighting style to choose from, or if the Stage Weapons would be of the "pick-up-and-throw" variety (a la MK4). Personally, I think it would be great if the normal fighting style weapons worked like MK:DA, and the stage weapons worked under the MK4 system. MK4 had its flaws, but I loved how you could knock a weapon out of someone's hand and then pick it up yourself. Being able to throw it was nice, too.

once you pick up a weapon you only have only style and thats the weapon you pick up, you can't switch until you drop it, or someone knocks it out of your hands.,


i really dislike the weapon editions in mk6

it takes away to much from the rest of the combat, cuz evey1 tries to go for the weapons as soon as the battle starts just like mk4

So it IS like MK4? Awesome! I always thought that was the coolest thing about MK4 and I for one will be glad to see it return.

While I totally agree with you, I'm pretty sure that will be impossible going from what was printed in the Game Informer article.

Since nobody can just pick up the weapon at their leisure, and they are forced to knock their OPPONENT into the weapon's encasing first, it will force players to actually strategize when trying to acquire the weapon.

If someone seems to be doing nothing but trying to do that against you... a new type of defensive strategy will be born that didn't exist in MK:DA.

I have faith that they will be a nice addition to game... but I also pray that the weapons aren't too overpowered and can't kill an opponent in a few hits.
