Did everyone just like... forget the whole Fatality thing? Wherein... in the previous game...

I feel like that's a big giant gaping hole in the theory that it's going to Batman, Catwoman, or most (if not all) other DC characters.

If they didn't want us decapitating them last time, what would change this time?

Now I will grant... that as a single entrant... one character... the rules might be a little more flexible for some of these guys. And I'm not even sure who... (Lobo? I dunno...)

But when push comes to shove, I honestly still don't see it happening. I can't see where DC would be cool with us splitting Batman in hald from the crotch up. Or shoving a grenade in Catwoman's torso. Or tearing Joker's skin off.

It just doesn't feel likely.

Now... the alternative would be... disabling fatalities against that one character but... that seems lame. Incredibly lame. So lame that I don't even think they'd go there.

Anyway...

I hope character #4 isn't a letdown...
I fear it might be...


Good point.

Granted, we probably wouldn't see Batman performing a fatality, but somebody like Bane could, or Green Lantern, or Catwoman, or a bunch of characters from DC. Warner Bros owns DC and MK now. DC comics can get pretty violent and brutal. If they wanted to, there's nothing really stoping them from giving a lot of the characters from DC a fatality.

I could *absolutely* see even Batman giving and receiving Fatalities.

Gillbob, I didn't forget about the Fatality Issue, I specifically mentioned the possibility of that getting changed for this one character.

They're obviously hyping this character a *lot*,
so I could totally see them laying down a "shock" like Batman with Fatalities.

yes but the true killing charachters have always been guys like sinestro and atrocitus. actually they cant kill because now the guardians just discharged hal for killing krona and sinestro is now back as a gl. read gl 67


now i just got done reading the interview about mk legacy and maybe the hydro charachter will be the dlc?


keep in mind the guy playing cyrax said he also plays hydro and the final episode of legacy will be shown at the con.

I don't know about the rest, but this is more or less true.
It would be ridiculous for them to debut *two* water characters back-to-back.

Point is, giving a Green Lantern character a fatality wouldn't be all that unreasonable.

that would be interesting. maybe an actual vampire? and i dont mean a sparkly fairy that wants to be a vamp either. ive often though having a character that looks kinda like sorin markov from MTG would be cool. he does have a sword, and magic powers, after all tongue

na i dont like the idea of a vampire at all.

nitara is what ruined it for me with the whole hey kids we have a vampire in mk.


maybe something more on the lines of a dragon type kharacter.


make him or her balanced and not anything like onaga.


the story could be something simple like a 2000 year old dragon warrior has a taste for new kombatent blood and enters the mortal kombat tournament to get his or her taste . this warrior is happy when killing his enemy

If that pun was intended...you get a "well played" from me.

Anyways, the more I think of it the more convinced I am that it will be a character from the Batman universe.

Nitara wasn't a bad character, she was just in a bad game which couldn't show her full potential, just like the rest of the characters from the MKDA-MKA era.

about the pun... wink

and arkham asylum was a great game. arkham city will be even better, im sure. if the 4th character is batman, im sure he'll be a good addition. and he doesnt really have to do a fatality, id be fine with him beating the shit out of the opponent and dragging them off for interrogation.

then again, this is coming from the guy who enjoys playing as kratos, and thought the idea of ezio (brought up in another thread i think) was a decent one. i enjoy playing as characters i know and like, whether they fit in MK or not. its only a game after all, meant to be fun and entertaining.

I hope it's good.

I also hope a few older characters get classic costumes in the future. Kang, Sonya, Kano, Cage, Raiden.

In my opinion, I WANT someone from MK4 to come. MK4 by far is my favorite game in the series. I just find it amazing.

However, I don't think it will be anything anyone is thinking. It's gonna be crazy hopefully.

i think out of all the mk kharachters i got my list of ones that need to be removed.



1. nitara.


2. bo rai cho ( if i wanna see a drunk that farts ill visit my uncle)

3 hotaru ( reminds me a of a tekken type charachter)

4. havik ( i just never dug him at all)

5 meat ( they missed a golden opertunity with him)

6. hsu-hao ( need i say why ?)

7. jarek ( seems boring)

8. ashra ( never interested me)

.......................................................................................................................................

i wouldve added movado but i think theycan really fix him like theydid kenshi because i use to be a kenshi hater back in the deadly alliance days

I think its a guest charcter from WB games. They gave some thime a go a hint that its somewone outside the mk world " The role and story is a Mystery, but not less exciting"
I think this is a hint for a guest charcter.
