I also Feel The Same Queve...I was Expecting A LOT of Murders and all....but we get a Battle(AMAZING) and the DK Destorying the Allaince Between Chi/Tsung/and Raiden....I wanted to see what happened to Sonya and Cage!!!!! They could have been with raiden at the Time and helped Raiden but Quan and Tsung were too much......in the end where the Alliacne tries to Kill the DK with their Powers Sonya could have Sent in the Purple Projectiles from the Past MK's and Cage could have sent in the Green Plasma or whatever it is.....Yet , we didnt get it. I ALSO loved the INtro...It was Awesome, and the Fights were better than in the Movies...(MK 2 that is...) but I was expecting a Lot more Depth!

"At least the important ones: Sonya, Johnny Cage, Kung Lao and Kitana."

Bah, you say Sonya, Johnny Cage are important? They needed to focus on the Dragon King and the Deadly Alliance more than on any other. Other characters should be told on Konquest IMO.

i thot it was cool and i LOVE the character gestures cuz they look more real and the fight scenes are cool.....but its not as good as i thot it wud be....i mean, it left me with a lot of unanswered questions, like, y r all those nomads lying there? How did the dragon king revive? Wat happened to other characters? And they cud of added like a lot of characters like getting ready for his arrival and stuff, i dunnno, it was awesome, but it was missing something....o yea and there are too many fireballs

Well, my guess would be that the DK's army took care of them before they reached the soulnado. That would make the most sense.

I don't really feel disappointed with the intro since there is now know that the video we saw it's not the full intro.

i dont think its the full intro guys.. u would think they would show how the earth realm fighters got defeated.. then show what they did.. then probably the aftermath.. we'll probably see how the D.K. was revived in konquest..

mileena and baraka fight was just for show..

My only real gripe was that the Shang-Quan showdown was a little short...but that comes back to the time issue...how long can an opening FMV be for a fighting game?

That was very well said dude! Props for that post! BUt you missunderstood me in some parts.

Its good to see many people agree on the subject, but some other people misunderstood me. All the “questions with no answers” that the trailer provided us is actually a great thing, a very good thing.

I was not asking for a complete “Trailer-biography” showing us everything about each character of the game, I think its pretty obvious that it is unlikely to happen.

What disappointed me though, was the lack of story about the DRAGON KINGS PAST. His rise and fall, etc. Just a little info on his past life.

Also, some scenes with other characters, the main ones laying on the floor, and the ones who returned such as Sindel and Mileena.

BUT now, it seems that it was not actually the complete intro. Hopefully this is true, so they will provide us more information and show us some other important facts we need to know and see in the vid.

Well, actually on Mileena's profile it says:

Mileena's Profile: "She misleads Kitana's Military forces in an attempt to give the Dragon King the time he needs to complete his plans."

So that explains what happened to Kitana. I think those things, like what happened to everyone; will be explained on the profiles.

I continue thinking that it's the complete intro, really I don't see so that the intro would have to be more long, although if somebody has proofs that isn't the complete intro, I'm enchanted to read them

Personally I think that what we saw is either the beginning of the intro or the end. I don't think it's the whole thing. I don't know this for a fact, but I have a feeling of it.

I can't see it, because I was late, and they took the thing down. Oh well. Gamespot or IGN will pick it up in no time. Until then, I HEAR it's good, and I can only assume it is. It just whets my appetite for MK goodness. Fatality.

I believe that it is the complete intro, but if it's not than it's the 2nd half of it.

This is just an introduction to Deception, the story is told through Konquest. We found out that Shujinko had a huge part to play in the return of the Dragon King, and Konquest is where we learn about the Dragon King and his revival. We don't need to see that in the intro, because all we need to get in order to start the game and the new story is the jist of what happened. The Deadly Alliance won MK:DA, Raiden fights them and loses, Onaga returns, Desperate Alliance tries to stop him, Raiden blows everything up, the DK takes the amulet, and Shujinko says he is to blame and that only he can stop Onaga. All of the holes will be filled in by Konquest, bios, possible fmvs, and endings.

I thought the intro was amazing. It got me so pumped up to play the game. Ed Boon and his team have done a great job putting the intro together.

I doubt it was the full thing I haven't seen it yet. Everyones like no we can't let you see it. Or send it to you or leave it on are site. Why the hell not ppl can rip photoshop off by getting a free version off of kaza why the hell can't they show the rest of us. I say it could be a fake version too just to throw us off a bit I doubt it but maybe they would decieve us lol.

Well, some people said they saw the Tarkatan creatures lying on the ground, but I thought they were just for the DK. And the MKDA intro showed that the DA controlled just the mummified army, no Tarkatan.

I thought the intro was AWESOME!!! The whole Raiden vs. Deadly Alliance and Raiden/DA vs. Dragon King was great too. When Shang Tsung and Quan Chi first fired on Onaga, it kinda reminded me of a Ryu/Ken thing. I would've like to see more, whether it be backstory or fighting, but I was happy.

this is unblievable.You guys are just waiting for something to screw it up.You never apreciate and You
always look at the negative sides.
Think it is easy then do it yourself

That I can agree with...but I think the greater problem is the fact that we weren't clued in too much in MK: DA...I think that was the best place to start pushing things about the Dragon Kings past...to help build him up abit...but I guess you could also say that mystery is an intriguing way to go as well.

I just think the whole thing about the DK's past, will be discovered more in Konquest, and I guess that's the development teams other ploy (as if they needed one)...to get us to play konquest, all the way through, and make sure we cover every kernel of land in Konquest.

I think the biggest cure, to all these problems...is just get October 4th here already, lol.


Would be nice if there were more to the intro though....that's not a knock, but I'll take all the MK I can get, lol.

Best. MK Intro. Ever.

And if what some guys say is true, then we haven't seen all of it.

I have to say though, they could've said more about the other Earthrealm Fighters. However,if we compare this intro to the MK:DA one then we can safely assume that we'll get more info through Konquest or just by beating the game.

I'm just hoping there will be a longer intro realeased soon

I only watched up until the snake fireball by shang and I thought it was the best ever. It really made Liu's fight with the DA look real crap. I also was hoping for more story.

The way I think of it, Sub-Zero was on par with other earthrealm fighters around the time of MK3, but now his powers have been increased by the Dragon Medallion, he's a lot more powerful, I think the introduction should've featured Raiden + Sub-Zero vs Quan Chi + Shang Tsung.

Having said that, the intro was still brilliant, I wasn't disppointed.

im hoping that the ending fmv features powers from all realms.. raiden,shao kahn,sindel, quan chi, shang, sub-zero,nitara, shujinko and scorpion. teaming up to take out the D.K...

Actually, there is.

You know the first vid we saw? The one that revealed the Dragon King?

There are many short vid scenes that show him doing many things he did not do in the intro movie. And those scenes, Im sure are from the Intro.

Look carefully.

This is not the complete intro.

YAY!

I was very disappointed with the whole thing. It reminds me of the terrible Amulet plot. The fight between Shang & Quan could have been a little longer. Shang should have morphed into Quan Chi before being defeated. And I really think Shang would put up a better fight, Quan Chi isn't that tough.

Well thanx to omega1977 in the Krypt lay out thread, we now know that Kitana did in fact die, but was RESURRECTED (praise Jesus), and Sonya is ok as well (she is on her own in some way, looking for Jax, Cyrax, and Kenshi)!!!

I don't know anything abt. Kung Lao, Johnny Cage, or Frost!!!

I loved the intro video & seeing enemies fight alongside one another to try and stop him gave me chills all over. It gave us what is happening now, and the individual character situations are being saved for the game's content, I am sure. It would be great if this was only a part of the intro, seeinf as how it looks incomplete at the very end, but who knows? If it is the entire thing I'll be fine with it. I'm just looking forward to this game!

I agree. IMO, Shang Tsung has proven to be the best of the 2.

He is just more evil, more powerful! The snake thing was amazing.
