How many would like to go back to the old days where High and Low Punch and Kick were in existance? I believe we now have Buttons 1,2,3, and 4 in MK. I wouldn't mind seeing the Run button again, either.

I would like them to come back.. but not run.. I think a dash move is so much more efficient..

The only thing I would have to say in contrary to that is that there are some very kick-heavy fighting styles (ex. Tae Kwon Do) in which the two kick buttons would get overused. Having the buttons assigned 1-4 gave the game makers more freedom to expand on that style's moves (ex. assigning certain kicks to buttons 1 or 2), as well as other styles that aren't 50/50 punch/kick.

As for the run button, I didn't mind it in MK3-4, and I thought the lack of a run feature was sorely missing in MKDA. I doubt if there should be a f,f dash feature because a lot of special moves begin with f,f and I think the animations would clash (I've said this all before). So I guess I would rather have the run button.

The button setup in MKDA is really comfortable and I think that the martial arts used in MKDA are much more complex than just HP, LP, HK, LK. The run move was alright in the 2D MKs, but I don't think it's a good idea in the 3D games. So I'd have to say no to HP, LP, HK, LK, Run.

REJECT!

The new system is better.
Right, the new system is easier for the developers to work with.

The new styles demand a better set up. I think what they did with the main attack buttons in MKDA was brilliant.

They just need to expand on it, and because of they way they set it up, they are not as restricted as they would be with the old system.

reject! do yall not want Mk to evolve and just stay the way it is. it is already way behind in terms of fighting games these days. and you want them to go further back and regress. change and improvement are good. otherewise mk6 would just be more 2d gameplay with digitized characters, or do you want them to go back to that too. look, all im saying is the old system has been done in 3d with mk4, and that sucked. so lets push boon and midway to improve what they have.

I would reject it.The time for those moves ended in with MK4. Let it die with grace.

I would ACCEPT it.... but I think that they should be molded with the multiple styles.

For example most Japanese styles are stiff and strong. So the High Punch should be stiff and strong. Chinese styles are faster and more graceful... so the High Punch should maybe be a quick backfist to the face.

Also... if they add the HP, LP, LK, HK back in a future installment... I think they should add High Block and Low Block. Not just duck and block. This way the game will be more difficult and a successful block will be better appreciated by the gamer.

I wouldn't want the Run button or HP,LP,LK,HK back but I do want the directional moves (eg. uppercuts,which are konfirmed, sweeps and roundhouses) back.

I'd accept it, albeit I'm used to both systems now. I wouldn't mind if they brought it back, but keep the new system in there if you have to.

Reject it. Some styles have more punches and kicks than others, so 1, 2, 3, 4 is much easier.

REJECT!

Gayest idea ever.

REJECT!

I Do Not Agree With The Majority Of This Thread.

REJECT!

Some People Just Cannot Get Used To Change...if any of you are about 20 & are using a computer, that's like changing the system. It changed dramaticlly. If you want to go back to the old fighting system, this is similar: log off your PC's & read the newspaper for entertainment...

REJECT!!!
