In my opinion,Midway really shot themselves in the foot by intertwining with DC instead of the "More popular then God" idea of combining with Street Fighter. Im only gonna buy for the online play,although the 1v1-ness may alter that same reasoning (im always hanging with friends online). but in general the game has slight potential,all the hate seemed unescesarry at first until they announced that no heroes will have fatalitys but brutalitys that "wont kill the opponent." which sorta ruined things for me. i really wanted to see my only liked DC character Flash actually kill someone,but that was dashed by the announcement.........and the fact that i realized that Flash has no real strength...........just the ability to run.................away..............fast. to change my mind they NEED to have the full MKA roster+full DC roster.

Why would that be bad?? its bad enough that DC is there at all but thats how we could make the most of it. more character=possibility of less sucky ones

I am currently not going to buy the game. I might rent, but not buy. What will change my mind? A fantastic fighting mechanic and an assurance that this is not canon in any way. To make this better? If it were all a joke and we'd be getting a real MK. Seriously though, more characters. give us like 30. and add KAK but you choose if your character is MK or DC and you get your powers/suits based on that.

I'll rent it. The last time I bought a MK game (Armageddon) I was disappointed.

Seriously the whole MK and DC roster! That's stupid. Remember Armageddon! Worst game of it's MK generation. This would only make it worse as someone said. However if KAK is included (it won't be) it might have some meaning this time since you could make the characters that didn't make the cut.

Why did everyone hate MKA?? i thought it was th best of the sieries (except for UMK3). the combat,compared to Deception,was alot better;faster paced,more fluid. Deceptions combat seemed WAAAAYYYY too stiff. the aircombat was bad but fixed itself due to its weakness. th roster was great but with only 4 unlockables it kinda sucked.

Im actually very excited with this game and always kept an open mind regarding it despite me wanting a “real MK”.

I see what you are saying and I agree with you to some extent, BUT....I definitely do NOT agree with your final words...

You want another MKA??? I loved the music, new backgrounds, v spics, extra content, Konquest (best thing of the game), air kombat, and kac was fun....but aside from those elements and probably a few others, its got to be one of the most horrible games in quality...plain horrible.

In quality, its got to be the worst.

The gameplay in MKA was definitely an improvement, but overall, the game was rushed, ruined, it screamed quantity over quality, it messed up and screwed a lot of official MK trademark elements, it was uninspired, it sucked.

Exactly.

Btw, NO Create a character....I rather see them spend their time CREATING excellent characters and official costumes for the confirmed cast, instead of us creating extra characters who might just end up with 2 silly kinds of “weapons/whatever” like in MKA.

It sure was. sad

I enjoyed a few elements of it though.

Too bad they didn’t keep all their promises and screwed most of MK’s essence.

What do you mean full roaster?

Anyways... I am one of those who WILL buy the game. I am sick and tired of reading everyone on this site saying they are not going to even look at the game on the shelves becuase they really hate the idea that this game is a crossover game. I am buying this game because, well, I want to see how this goes. I want to hear the music they have for htis game, I really like the music they put in all of the games. I also want to see how the gameplay and all that looks so that if they really did put a lot of effort in this game, the next game would be cool.

Though, I am sad to say that everyone is not going to buy the game. I don't understand why you won't buy it because of a little change. Haven't we all asked for that anyways? You guys always wanted something different to be featured into this game, and well, here we have a crossover. Get over the fact that there is something different in this game and stop act like pre-madonas becuase there's not going to be that much gore as all MK game has.

There is nothing out there in the world that will change my mind about buying this game,. The only thing that might retain me from getting the game is... well, who's buying the game. I usually don't have that much money myself to buy because I don;t have a job, I don't have a lot of time during the summer so why should I look for a job when I don't have the time? But yeah, ther's nothing that will change my mind about geting this game. Not even if some crazy MK fan even tortured me about buying the game.

This should go in the rant thread....

But anywho, this game will be great once it's out not a doubt in my mind.

As for having every single character from MK and DC? You're talking about 200+ characters=not going to work and just dumb IMO

Yeah i'll buy it, The worse it can do is Suck. That's why i'll be sure not to throw out my Receipt straight away.

I personally am not against the Idea as much as others. Granted at first i was Dissapointed and felt it was just a Street Fighter vs Marvel Ripoff.

But it's winning me over slowly but surely.
