And this, ladies and germs, is why Tgrant needs to work for Midway. Even with no bios, crappy endings, horrible gameplay and the various other faults MKA has, I'd still be playing it regularly were ideas like this implemented.
**Standing ovation**

Thankyou kindly good sir! grin

Lol! I thought that was a pretty funny one myself. I'm glad you liked them though and thanks for the comments.

Liam approves of this thread, and wishes more games used ways of unlocking things like this.

Great ideas. Like I'm sure someone else has said though, that's way too much stuff to do. WAAY too much. What if someone's memory card went crazy or missing? Unlocking in MK could still use your creativity though.

That was great. This is how MKA should have been, or at least more like it .

Although some things might seem tedious, overall they seem pretty acheivable for the average player.

Personally i love this type of unlocking, it gives you a sense of accomplishment once you have done something.

We can only hope for MK8.

Glad you liked it, man. I would hope MK8 would be better all around and hopefully unlocking will be more of a task and alot more fun than ever before.

Ok man' I didn't bother to read it all , you really have time to invest in these creative thinking, all that writing would have been useful if you actually worked on the game at midway, otherwise I think you like MK a little too much . Why don't you write a novel about it. And no, starting with only one character would suck pretty bad, good for you , but bad to most casual players. It's like hey I just got the game man' let's play a match. OOh what there's only one character, what I have to go to konquest first to unlock a second one so we can at least play a match, let's call the game Shaolin Monks 2 then, since so much emphasis would be put on konquest. And most people don't want to bother with hard challenges to unlock characters. If you like MK so much , your replay value is in your heart , don't need 2 years of stuff to unlock in a fighting game.

So you finally got this up eh? Excellent stuff there. Highly inventive and original. It's easy to see just how much thought went into all of these. Some of them sound like so much fun (lmao @ Bo's < I think that's my favorite) while others seem like they'd make you break a few controllers trying to pull them off. Everything that unlocking secrets should be. I told you this before and I'll tell ya again: You do superb work my friend. MK team would do well to consult you on a great many things from unlockable ideas to arena design. grin

Hey man, sorry it took me so long to reply to this thread... Christmas and all smile

Anyway very cool thread man! This would have made Konquest much more awesome!

Btw I really liked the Frost one! Kinda reminded me of one of the mission modes in SoulCalibur.

Plus Sonya in bikini...Hell Yeah!

You replied! grin I'm surprised that Bo's would be your favourite, but that's cool. I'm really happy you like the finished project.

And thanks, but the MK Team wouldn't hire me lol. Though it'd be so cool. Thanks again, man!

Thanks, bud! And yes, the Frost mission is based off the modes in Soul Calibur 2! I think you're the first to see a reference to another game in the ideas!

And back off sonya! tongue

You really should read the initial post before replying. I never said starting with one person was a definite. It was just the groundwork I based this project around.

And also, most of these are not anywhere near hard.

Finally, whether or not I work for Midway shouldn't determine what I can and cannot write based on MK and how much I decide to write. Grow up.

'Course I did Ty, lol, I told you that I couldn't wait til you had this up, and then I saw it while looking for anything of importance on the MKA board (*sigh*, a fruitless task somtimes to be sure lol)

And you're not the only one surprised that Bo's is my favorite, I was too. But i dunno reading it, it just made me laugh cause of how I was picturing his reaction to the booze being gone lmao... they're all excellent though. I also really loved how you have the difficulty fluxuating a bit. Some are very simple and straight forward, and then others are more complex... like I said everything "unlocking" should be. Great job once again man.

AWESOME!!!

Wow, I really enjoyed reading all of this, its just fantastic! Excellent ideas Tgrant, I honestly felled in love with the Sonya and Johnny Cage parts, would rock to do that, and the “WTF!?” ones were simply hilarious and super fun!

I would love it if all this could be done, well, it should had been done....sad

Almost all characters unlocked in MKA was kind of boring, hopefully something as original as this can be done in the future.

Exccellent work T, excellent.

Lol! I pictured that same reaction and from there I knew I had to use the idea. I just had trouble making up the scenario at first but I eventually got it down.
I'm glad you enjoyed the overall set of ideas. Thanks alot, bro.

I knew you'd love Sonya's! grin That's why I wouldn't show you it or Keith!
Remember, there were only four characters to unlock in MKA and that blew. I also hope they could use something like this for the future. It'd just make things so much more interesting and bring back an old MK feel as well as some longevity.
Thanks, dude!
