Well, that is why it says "possibly" in the headline.



I'm not sure if it is purely assumption on the writers part or if they actually received that statement from the developers while asking about exclusives for Wii in their preview (that is at least what I hold for more probable when reading the full sentence). Would be easier to determine if you could get a view inside the magazine yourself.

Who is Monster and how do I see him in Deception? I'd really like to check that out. Sorry, I just never heard of that guy all throughout playing Deception and it's Konquest.

I have no idea who they would chose. I really wouldn't care for them to add Tremor or Tashia from Special Forces. It would be different to have No Face though. There is no kharacter that is like him in the games.

I doubt they would use No Face since he is a character more popular with Twisted Metal as opposed to Mortal Kombat.

Plus, I only think there will be Khameleon in it, and that's it. Maybe a few glitches fixed for the gameplay, but overall nothing too different.

Although they do seem to keep delaying it...

I'm thinking Kia and Jatakka tag team really. Why? Because they already have their models from Konquest, Midway just need to wave the magic stick and tart up the models for the full game and use two of the unused styles from Deadly Alliance.

Why would we need one when he's probably in?

Monster isn't Scorpion, but they of course had the exact same moveset. Either way, no point in putting characters like Monster or Tremor in. I'm pretty sure we're just going to get Khameleon added in, which is fine by me.

seriously the only character you can expect is monster or Tremor thats its. no other character is even a possibility think about it (plus tremor would have ground moves a fresh weapon ) besides its only about a 40% chance of a second character .

I heard a rumor that Noob Smoke would be a playable tag team again. I'll predict that as the additional character to make the select screen even again.

monster would be the worst possible addition to the roster.

why?

because he's just a "monster"...

it would be like adding a shadow priest to the roster...

the name tag would be called "shadow priest"


monster is not a character's name - it's just a little event they put in there to spice up MK:D's konquest mode... nothing more.

I wouldn't say that. It's more of a means to make use of the scrapped Scorpion idea they were going to give him, namely a story involving time travel to stop Shujinko for making a complete ass of himself.

he had all of scorpions moves, he had scorpions same voice actor for konquest, he had the same storyline as scorpion. IT WAS SCORPION.

I would prefer some extra character where you would click on them, then got to choose a species, then it would give you a random warrior from that species, but would be called their species...

Please clarify. I think your use of the word "species" over and over threw me off.

Guys, don't go getting too happy, i highly doubt we'll get two characters, Khameleon would complete the roster, so we really don't need anyone else. If they want, i guess they could just throw in Tremor,Monster,Jattaka and Kia for fans enjoyment. and DarthMarino, i heard there would be an option that allows you to play as Noob-Smoke, but you can play as them sepratley if you want. All i want is for mka to feel dark and to feel epic, like it felt when i opened that cover of game informer that had that large render and the first screen shots.

Agreed,ther is no need for Tremor at all,Tremor is just a minor character with no true part in the mk universe.


He just doesnt have a point.

Let me reiterate...

It WAS supposed to be Scorpion. That look was supposed to be his alternate costume, and there was going to be a story for him involving time travel. However, the idea was scrapped, so instead, they made use out of that design, making him into "Monster". Scorpion couldn't have possibly been around when Shujinko was young.

I mean, wouldn't it be kind of strange for Shujinko to fight Scorpion, who wasn't even born yet, let alone become the specter we know him as, and then meet him years later in the Netherrealm?

My memory is a little rusty, but if i remember correctly, you train with Sub-Zero himself during Konquest, a little before you find the Kamidogu of Earthrealm. Sub-Zero is the Grandmaster and already has his Cryomancer armor equipped. Scorpion is in the Netherealm hunting Quan Chi down when we find him, though that's much later in the story.

However, Scorpion would have been alive before Shujinko, but Shujinko does age more than 10 years (a decade passed before MKDA and after MK4/Gold, right?).

I'm confused. I need to review the Konquest storyline a bit more...

One problem with MKD's Konquest is the timeline, though I suppose that Jax's line in MKSM about time being different in Outworld COULD possibly be used to explain the time problems.

MKDA takes place 10 years after MK1.

Shujinko's second trip to the Netherrealm is supposedly before the start of MKDA's intro with Quan Chi trying to escape from Scorpion. But yeah, there are definitely plotholes.

Regardless, Monster is not Scorpion but was meant to be Scorpion.

Ah. Hm, true. I'd like to see if they could add a story to Monster, though. The character looked pretty decent; didn't look as cool as Scorpion's MKD primary outfit, but he looked alright. Tweak his looks a bit, give him some original specials (or just make him use something other than Scorpion's specials), and give him a reasonable storyline, and we have someone new to discuss.

yeah,however are passed ten years in the REAL life,but we don't know how many years are passed between mk1 and mkda in MK timeline.
For what i know MKDA events happened few days after MK4/gold,in fact in scorpion ending Quan Chi were trapped in nheterealm with scorpion.
And MKDA begins right in this moment.
However Mkdeception konquest mode is full of mistakes and plotholes

According to the GI interview there is only one exclusive kharacter for the Wii version and it is Khameleon. No tremor, no monster, no surprise. Now let's at least hope that they don't half ass Khameleon with something we could have done in Kreate a Fighter.

Actually I disagree. I hope Khameleon WILL be makeable in KAF. This way those of us who don't have Wii can still make her as accurately as possible.

I do agree though, about not making her "half-assed" though. I really hope she looks cool.

Like I said, MKDA takes place 10 years after MK1. Sonya's MKDA bio states this. I'm not sure about the time that passed between MK4 and MKDA, but it had to have been sometime longer than just a few days.

And yes, I know MKD's Konquest has mistakes and plotholes.

I hope that won't be a new character. I hope for Monster.

The Game Informer article states that only Khameleon will be added to the roster. So that puts that argument to rest.
