If you know who the character is, and you're not here to tell us, you're here to what... tease us? Brag? That's just annoying.

You told Jaded, so you can be proven right tomorrow, but tomorrow no one will give a damn if you were right or not because we'll all be in a different thread attached to the "4th DLC character revealed!" headline.

Clearly this can't be THAT big'a life or death secret, or you wouldn't be dropping hints, and you wouldn't have TOLD someone. Generally hint dropping implies someone is saying, "I have something I'm not supposed to tell you but I want too. Twist my arm and I will."

So like... *Twist*

I'm not trying to be a jerk here... but I just got to this thread and read the last 3-4 pages... and this all seems very annoying to me. You claim to have information, but you're not revealing it so like... WHY am I supposed to care... that some guy is here taunting us? Reading all four pages was very "I know something you don't know! Neener, Neener, Neener!"

By tomorrow, I'm not gonna care if you were right or not, because while Jaded may vouch that you're not a liar, you'll still be a pointless tease who made me wait a day for information I'll already have learned from another source that isn't you by then! *Shakes Fist*

*Frustrated Grunt*


Calm down, granny. Don't want you to pop an arterie.
I was just lucky to have been told who it is, and I promised not to tell. I did it mostly for myself, but like everyone else, I won't be 100% sure until the announcement tomorrow.

People just got overgeared and started guessing like madmen.


But he's got a huge point though.

Why keep something a secret and then blab that out to the public, while knowing how people get, and just sit there? Granted that the reveal of this character will be tomorrow, it's still not nice to just sit here and say, "hey I got a secret, I'm just not gonna tell you."

That's just asking for trouble. And it goes to anyone in the future that does so as well. Not just you guys in particular.


I'm still not going to spill it. Sorry.


*clutches heart in utter pain*

Oh noez...

I think I can survive one more day.



Good. ^^ Then we can go on with out lives.

I wouldn't mind cyber Smoke. Im not a fan of multiple versions of the same character; The evil Ruys and oni Akumas and shit, but I would take him over any guest character for sure!

Hmmm... It's a male and it's not Shinnok.

Well, considering Boon posted a list of potential DLC characters MONTHS ago asking which people wanted, the only remining male from that list is CYBER SMOKE (or Bo' Rai cho?? - but I mean, honestly). *If* Ermac is being honest, then the clues can only point to cyber smoke.

Bit meh about this. Glad I didn't get the full season pass. Though I do still think Tanya's on her way. Boon's tweets seem enthusiastic about additional DLC characters beyond the initial 4.


Boon's list was- Kenshi(In), Rain(In), new character(We can assume this was Skarlet-In), Tanya, Shinnok, and Cyber-Smoke.

But it sounds like they're drifting away from making Shinnok DLC.

Pleeeaaase start reducing your quotes. The layout is bad enough without having to scroll through so many lines of text.

Actually Bo wasn't in that list.

It was just Rain Kenshi Shinnok ROBOsmoke (His words not mine) and a new character..........

I don't care what you do with the secret. I'm a very patient person.

I just think it's rude to let people know you got a great secret that you know what's what and not tell, but you'll just tell everyone that you got that secret. That's not nice nor is it fair to others... Especially when you have the audacity to tell one other person.

Got a secret, either spill it in a way where people just think you're guessing/estimating/assuming/etc. Or keep quiet that you know what's what.

Well that's kinda my POINT... you don't KNOW any better than we do if the guy is telling the truth, but at least you HAVE the information and can formulate an opinion for YOURSELF... one way or another... the rest of us are left in the dark stewing.

I hardly care if this guy is proven right tomorrow. What I CARE about is the information he claims to have, but isn't revealing.

If he ISN'T sure the information is true, and he clearly CAN share it with one person, WHY can he not share it with everyone? We don't know his real identity. We don't know the identity of his friend. HE doesn't even know if this information is true. And even if none of that were the case, the reveal is tomorrow... I don't think NRS is gonna come hunt any of us down over a spilled rumor the night beforehand. Hell EVERY bit of information in the vanilla base game leaked about a month before release... not just on one guy's word... but HARD FILES... Pictures... Evidence...

And I don't think they came here hunting for any of us afterward.

So I'm a little confused as to what the hell the point of all the cloak and dagger, hush hush BS is... If he's here to tell us he can tell us, and if he's adamantly clinging to the idea that he's NOT going to tell us, he's just being a bragadocious tease... and I could care less if he's proven right tomorrow, after this secret is no longer relevent.

He claims it's a character we've already seen in game. I doubt highly that it's a character who hasn't already been mentioned. I don't think Boon will hunt him now just for dropping a name dozens of other people have likely already dropped...

If he tells us what he knows, half of us can say "Awesome! I believe you!" and half of us can say, "You liar! That's BS!" and we can move the hell on...

And then I might actually care if he's proven right or not tomorrow, because we'll likely have a bit of discussion about the likelihood that his information is true or not.

As it stands, I've just been reading four or five pages of posts that ultimately amount to nothing... and it irritates me. tongue

YOU, Jaded, not spilling it, I completely understand. Some dude told you something in confidance, and you don't feel it's your information to tell, so you aren't. I get it.

HIM not telling, just irritates me, because he's dangling the carrot in front of our face, and CLEARLY has the ability to hand us that carrot at any time he wants... You're living proof... but he's not doing that.

When someone is taunting me, I have a right to be irritated.

Is it against the rules not to reduce the quotes?
Are you going to start skull people if they don't?

Yes, I remember now.

I've got to say, not to piss on anyone's parade, but if it IS cyber smoke I'll be heartily disappointed. Should be alternate costume at most. The fan's who've requested him as an entirely seperate, alternate character, have been - imo - a little bit self-indulgent.

A cyber version of Sub is more than enough.

I'd prefer Cyber-Smoke to a guest character. But I think I'd prefer any other MK character over Cyber-Smoke. At least for now.

I just hope it's not a guest character. That is literally all I care about. I kinda knew from day 1 that my top DLC choices weren't going to make it anyway.

Why are you bowing down to Jaded like he's the pope? He doesn't know much more than us really.

But I'm hoping for Tits.

It's a bit of a shame Ed flew in with 6 choices, but didn't specifically listen to the fans - the forum poll for who posters most wanted (amounting to priceless market research any company would pay a ton for). Which had Fujin listed right near the top, though it seems he was never really considered.

I agree Cyber Smoke is better than a guest character, but then I'd rather have Mokap than a guest character - doesn't say much for CySm really does it? tongue
