It’s Morphin’ Time! Defeat Shang Tsung in Randper Kombat! (Konquest)

Shang Tsung desires your soul and will have it at any cost. Using his magic he casts a spell on you that sees you shape shift into many different beings uncontrollably. He believes that this will be your disadvantage. He too will morph, but at his discretion. Defeat Shang Tsung under the following stipulations:

You will morph into a random person every few seconds. Shang Tsung will heal himself by absorbing several souls flying around the area periodically. He also has double health.

(Note: This will be a separate fight to the one involved in the Ermac unlocking.)

Shao Kahn

Home Run Contest! Best Shao Kahn in a hammer shot contest! (Konquest)

Kahn’s hammer has been wielded by its owner with unmatched power and intensity. Shao Kahn can send any victim hurtling through the air with one fell swing. As a test to prove your worth to him, he challenges you to a hammer shot contest.

By mashing the buttons on your pad, you must reach the required bar on the gauge (like Test Your Might) and then release your swing. You will be launching skulls, bodies and anything else Kahn thinks up. Defeat him here to unlock him. He may even flip out and start knocking everyone all over the place.

Sheeva

The Show Kahn (Shokan) Challenge! Survive and conquer! (Konquest)

See Goro.

Shinnok

Portal Kombat! Defeat Shinnok!

Shinnok has been the ruler of the Netherrealm for many an age. He does not take kindly to those wishing to challenge that rule or those who are enforcers of good. Due to this, it obviously doesn’t go down well when you get launched through a window directly into his throne room. Shinnok is enraged and swiftly makes to destroy you. You must defend your life or lose it.

You will face him in Portal Kombat. Shinnok is a portal master and before he was banished he used them to travel to other realms. Now he uses them in battle as well to move small distances to escape his enemy and get in a sneak attack in battle. He lines the throne room with multiple portals for him.

Up until you defeat him in 3 rounds, the match stipulations are as follows:

Shinnok will use the portals at will to move around or attack from another direction. The portals are instant transporters so you must be on your guard. Trying to enter a portal yourself will cause heavy damage.

Defeat Shinnok to unlock him.

Shujinko

Dedicated Specialist! Attack mainly with special moves! (Any mode excluding Practice and the Krypt)

Show your mastery over special moves by performing them successfully 1000 times. You can use any character you wish as the totals will add up as long as you have your profile loaded.

Sindel

Scream-Zero! Help Sindel recover her voice! (Konquest)

The Queen Sindel was sent into a rage upon losing her crown one day. The scream of fury she released was so powerful that a section of the Edenian palace needs rebuilding. However, in the process, Sindel lost her voice.

Your task is to find Sindel a powerful medicine and return it to her to take so she can regain her voice once more. Do this to unlock her and her screams of fury.

Smoke

Where there’s Smoke, there’s fire... Isn’t there? Rescue Smoke. (Konquest)

Smoke is being held prisoner in a chamber within Noob Saibot’s Netherrealm stronghold. Most of the rooms in the central area along with the area surrounding Smoke’s chamber are fitted with smoke alarms that will sound an alarm if Smoke tries to escape. Unfortunately, you are unable to break or disable the alarms due to their shielding.

You must break into the stronghold and rescue Smoke. Oncey ou find him, you will need to re-programme him so that he obeys you. Then you must try and navigate the rooms and get to the entrance without triggering any alarms. If you do, you will have to fend off members of Noob’s cyber demon army. They are no easy customers and fortunately for you, the boss man himself is away attending to other matters.

You must safely get Smoke out of the stronghold and back to Earthrealm. If he is re captured or he or you are killed, you must restart.

Sonya

Babewatch! Kick some ass – Sonya style! (Konquest)

Having worked her ass off over recent months and putting foot to ass across the realms, Sonya is taking a break on a beautiful beach. Although on her break, she’s still on duty as an acting lifeguard.

That’s when the enemy strikes. Led by Kano, the group swarm the beach and begin terrorising and robbing the screaming crowd.

Armed with her gun, bikini and a killer body, it’s time for Miss Blade to take down the enemy. You must work your way across the beach – kicking, punching, shooting and possibly pouting and booty shaking and clear the enemy off the beach. You might want to knock Kano’s teeth out too. Catch him if you can!

Stryker

First Stryke! Hit first. Hit fast. (Arcade, Versus, Konquest and Online Versus)

Deliver the first successful blow of the match. Do this 100 times in total to obtain Stryker. (The hit must do damage and excludes teleports and disabler moves. Also, all matches must be fully completed.)

Sub-Zero

Ice surfing fun! Race to the finish! (Konquest)

Sub-Zero has built an ice slope within the Lin Kuei HQ. He also created an ice board so he could glide down it. He challenges you to a race to the bottom to prove his superiority on the ice.

You must reach the finish before him whilst avoiding hazards such as ice pits, snowmen and any hazards Sub-Zero may choose to put in your way on your way down. Use your jumps, aerial techniques and careful evasive tactics to best Sub-Zero. If needed, launch a snowball at him...

Tanya

Where’s Tanya? Find Tanya! (Konquest, Arcade, Versus, Survival, Team, Tournament / Wii)

Upon meeting a bored Tanya, you find that she wishes to play a game of hide and seek. Her instructions are simply, ‘Find Me!’ She then disappears in burst of flames and the game begins.

After this brief encounter, whenever you’re in a match, you should be on the look out for Tanya. She or apart of herself or something that belongs to her may be visible within the background. Look out for her neck brace, her clothing, a boot, her eyes or even her shadow etc. Using the Wii mote after spotting one, you must point to the object and press A to reveal Tanya who will then flee. Find her 10 times and she will be yours to control.

Taven

Konquest finish! Finish Konquest mode. (Konquest)

It's self explanatory. Finish Konquest and Taven is yours.


That's all of them. Let me know what you think.

That was Pure Genius!


Lol ... and Mods complain about Double posting

That is Fantastic! Great job as always.

MKA's unlockables were crap. Im so tired of boon adding in his pics of him and his team. For christ sakes boon it's only 2 years apart. We seen you in MKDA. MKD. MKSM. Blah.

I like the ideas here.

Okay, at this moment I don't have enough time to tell you just how fucking awesome this is, but I will be back to drool as I post my thoughts. From what I read, I've drenched myself. I know you know which four I love the most.

I'd be lying if i said i read all of them, as it is late here. But what i read was great, some creative ideas with humour to boot.

(lol Quan's Chi)

Some very good idea here, definitely would be better then how MKA is now. I liked how there was a mix of tough ones, easy ones and just plain wtf? (Baraka immediately comes into mind...) ones.

My faves were Kitana's, Jarek's, Tanya's and Cage's (what would happen if you took away his glasses btw?). They all seemed interesting and fun, especially Tanya's.

The only one's that I didn't like were Khameleon, Hsu Hao, Onaga and Mokap. They seemed too long and not worth it, but I guess so did unlocking Liu Kang in MKD. I guess I am just too lazy to put in all of that effort

Still, an awesome job here. I much prefer this to what is currently in MKA, and they all seemed entertaining, not just countless battles. A definite 10/10 for these, great ideas!

Liu kang was defiantly worth it. His speed was incredibly fast.

Probably, but I dont use him at all, so he was kinda a waste for me.

kick ass man i would love it i noticed you left a short amount out of chars as starters and they were pretty good choices. sadly, you did not make MKA if you did it would be awesome

Awesome thread bro, I always wanted there to be unique and creative ways to unlock characters as well, especially in MKA. You pretty much covered everything, great work.

And harder the better IMO. After you do certain tasks, there should be eerie noises/sounds that you hear in the krypt or at the main menu. Perhaps whispering or someone quietly saying letter after letter of a name or place.....this is something that I'd love to see in a future MK, a difficult and hard way to unlock secret characters.

Hints on stages should be ways of unlocking as well. Wheather changes can play a big role....something like lightning constantly flashing, when it happens you'd have to quickly press a button or two a few times; then when it happens again after a while you'd see a dark figure appear on the next flash to confirm the code.

Secret characters that appear before matches should also say alot more. This includes places they visit once in a while, something part of their storyline, a certain day at a certain time, and/or they might tell you hints on doing certain tasks first. Some characters may tell you to retrieve something or slay someone in order for you to battle them.

Some characters, like Havik IMO, would be great at mocking/teasing you, and when they do this they sometimes throw clues. For an example, Havik would appear in Konquest and at times you would hear his echo telling you to come get him or find him here/there. He could be anywhere from ontop of a New York building in Earthrealm, to a maze-like jungle in the living forest. Also, as soon as Havik starts talking to you, a mini-clock appears on the bottom left screen that times you. You have a time limit to meet Havik or he will disappear; don't get it twisted with being easy because it would be very difficult. Sometimes you'd only have a minute or 30 seconds, depending on where he is, and if you fail you'd hear his annoying loud laugh. After that, you'd have to wait to hear from him again.

Just some more ideas. Again, great thread bro......if you want you can check out my post in ThePredator151's stickied thread located in the future Mk section. Not alot in there, but similar things to this post.

Thanks, dude!



Thanks, man!



I'm glad you like them.



Lol! I'm guessing Sonya, Mileena, Tanya and Sheeva. I'm probably wrong with one of them though lol.

I look forward to your reply.



Thanks, dude.

Quan's is one of my favourites.



I'm glad you like the overall ideas, but have to disagree on the length of most of those you disliked. The only one I can agree with that is long is Onaga's. The rest given how most people play an MK game is nothing. The Mokap one is all auto based so you'd only need to play as a character once and you only need to do that 32 times.

Khameleons is short! Given the amount of time I know people spend on MK, 26 hours is nothing. The hard part is dividing it between the females. I understand that not everyone might want to do that, but for most, this is an easy job.

They're all shorter than they seem with the exception of Onaga. But again, combine this one with Khameleons and it's easily done. Those of us who play online would find Onaga's and Khameleons unlock a breeze. I cna see what you mean about how they could be long though. I guess it's just a matter of if you're willing to make the effort or not lol.

10/10..SWEET!

As I said to MINION before, I am extremely lazy :p

The Hsu Hao one isn't that long, but having to memorize a whole new style seems a bit much for me considering I dont play the game very competitively, and learning a style for a character I dont even like seems like too much effort.

With Khameleon, it would be easy with characters like Sheeva, Jade, Tanya, Mileena etc., but for some (like Frost, Kitana etc.) I dont like using them at all on MKA, and to be playing through Arcade mode for 2 hours (as you know, I dont have online), it would get boring.

With the Mokap one, maybe I read it wrong, but from what I gather, you have to go through half of the roster and do every single move they learn, which becomes tiresome after getting through half of a character. I dunno, it might be me though.

Anyway, I still think that they were all quite good, even those ones. It was just that when I read them, they seemed to require more effort then the others, and the characters werent any that I would have wanted to do any extra for (except maybe Khameleon). Meh, as I said before, I am lazy

Still, awesome ideas for all of them, and still, 10/10.

Well, this is absolutely kickass, and is a true testament that you love MK more than the MK team does.

Cool stuff, man. I've pretty muhc told you my thoughts for them all, so no need to repeat them here.
