This thought crossed my mind as well. I mean GOD I hope not but the thought did cross my mind.

Damn I thought scorpion would be similar in gameplay but christ hes identical. Kinda feel that NetherRealm was getting pissed with their secrets getting leaked and also felt the backlash of the lack of MM so they bumped up scorpion first to give time to work on manhunter more and throw off the rumors abit. My guess is next MM and Zod in next season pass which im okay with I"ll just be happy to get more than four dlc characters. And those blackest night skins look fucking awesome.

Ya know, I'm actually proud of NRS on how they executed this. I mean, I knew that Scorpion would make his way in this game some way the other. But it actually wasn't a half-assed, lazy MK9 port. They actually gave him a new costume, intro and wager animation. Good job to you all, Jim Lee and NRS. You did not disappoint.

Wait...

So you're angry that others are happy? How selfish.

I like the hood... And that is all the positive critique I can give without lying.
The rest is just... Meh.

Sarcasm everywhere!

I'm glad he still has his moves from MK. I'd hate to have to relearn a character I was quite familiar with before.

The whole point was just making him fit into Injustice, which they did perfectly.

Well... So much for keeping Injustice and MK separate from each other. That said... I'd be lying if I said he didn't look like fun to play. The design is a nice one too. Still don't think he should be there... but no amount of complaining is going to change that, so might as well make the best of it. Best thing for me about this vid is the MM tease.

"Rather expensive" does not mean much. Save up in the case of being poor.

I was referring to the possibility of them purchasing MK10 because Scorpion piqued their interest in the Universe of Mortal Kombat. It's profitable from a business standpoint for NRS to include Scorpion: they'll likely get some extra cash from those who wouldn't have been curious about MK, if not for Scorpion's inclusion in I:GAU.

That wasn't sarcasm, my friend. I was quite serious. The team actually put in a good effort towards this DLC. And to those who are complaining about his moves being "copy and pasted" I must ask why? Isn't there suppose to be some sense of familiarity? Why re-learn the moves for a character with whom you're already quite familiar? *shrugs*

Considering he is 90% copy and paste, I wonder why did they change his intro, victory pose, and throw. Also wouldn't it have been easier to take his X-Ray, remove the X-Ray effect and call it his Super? Lol NRS.

Backflip kick is back + air throw + air teleport. Scorpion is officially the best anti-air player in the game now or at least gives Doomsday and Wonder Woman a run for their money.

A punch to the jaw and a stomp on the chest are so weak in terms of scale in this game.

Black Adam.

He's considerably stronger than Scorpion lol

True, but it's all about the slow mo effects man lol.

He looks badass... "Ninja from hell" concept hit right on the nose. Wonder if they'll give him an even more radical alt costume. ??

Loved his intro...it's a nice surprise, nice touch.

Also like that they kept his move set very similar to MK9. His super feels a bit "Kratos-ish" and like they should've done it more like Scorpion from MK Shaolin Monks (swinging the chains around, cutting up the opponent up etc) but, it wasn't terrible. I think it should have turned out more like a fatality without rightly being so. I'm luke warm about this one.

I'm not surprised about Scorpion being DLC either...they made it work well enough. Besides, one MK guest isn't bad and why not Scorpion if it was goinh to be any of them? -- But, I do think it feels kind of funky visiting Scorpions Hell arena a few times. ((In the next MK I hope they re-invent "Hell" conceptually...rethink it...re-design what hell means. Move away from so much of the lava, heat, and fire color pallet a bit, and focus more on how scary nightmares, death, and hell is.)) Anywho...

Bring on the Martian!

They translated him really well in this game, his moves, personality, and design. I really like his wager clash, and I'm glad they made his disable require a bar of the super meter. Overall, he fits well into this game. And the way MMH came out of the background, I wouldn't count him out just yet!

I'm actually happy they didn't change his moveset too much. I want to see how an MK design functions in the Injustice engine.

As for his design... I'm kinda indifferent. I like the loose hood, but I hate the obnoxious spikes on the gauntlets. I like the golden armor, but I hate the lines and loose cloth on his legs. I like that he looks very MK-ish, but I hate that he's in the game at all. I'm not even mad, though. I accepted his inclusion a long time ago.

LOL I'm not selfish... what I mean is tha I hate people saying that just todo get a ed boon RT....

I think it's near safe to say either:

charcater list 2 is real
or Manhunter may be character 4 since apparently Scorpion is character 3


all in all though not too happy with Scorpion. His super looks a bit lame....i could have sworn it felt like watching Kratos........

Probably not, but just a guess... Maybe their is a tie-in with Scorpion and MM somehow. Manhunter being prone to fire and characters getting the Blackest Night costumes. Maybe somehow Scorpion is involved with that arc and that's why if at all, MM will also receive a BN outfit later on.

I do find it odd that Scorpion is Summoned to the Injustice world. Makes me wonder if someone else was transported back to the MK realm in his place of teleportation.

lololol

I only had one problem with Freddy, and it's the same problem I have with Scorpion. No Jason, No Sub-Zero.
I've been a Friday the 13th fan for over 20 years now. When I saw Freddy was in MK9 my heart skipped a beat. I figured "if Freddy is in, Jason has to be, right?" Wrong! i feel like that has happened again with Scorpion. I can live without SubZ in the game, but you have to notice the similarities. It's not that Scorpion can't stand solid ground in Injustice, he just needs some company. Plus, more people would get into him if SubZ was in.
Get to more DC characters first!!!

He looks awesome!
It's got me even more excited about a future MK game.
I have no problem with him having the same moves from MK9, it's his style, it makes sense.
I feel like his super needed to end with more of an oomph but apart from that, all is good.
I love how he sinks into the ground for his clash.

Me too man. It's sad how much knowledge I got of F13's. Ask me some trivia sometime. I'm a f13th nerd.
