I'll try to make this as clear as I can.



And if we look at the bridge from the original waterfront...



How can anyone deny this is the waterfront? It even subdivides downtown... like the waterfront.


Fineeee. Can we call it the Water-Bridge?

Could be a mix of both. It looks alot more like the MK3 Bridge tho, even if the water was not visible; the perspective of fighting ON the bridge with the city in the background looks the same.

Can't everybody just agree that it's both the Bridge and the Waterfront?
It's not like they didn't do it with other stages.
Everybody agree? Good, that settles it then...

Well, since no one really knows what was underneath the bridge, it could very well be both. I'm only arguing that it's AT THE VERY LEAST The Waterfront.

Gotta put my two cents in as it seems almost every member from the forum is lol. I love this concept. I completely agree with the humor, don't need it for the traditional arcade mode or story mode but for the challenge tower it's perfect. Two things I also wanted to address.

Really important question.

The Challenge Tower will be completely different 300 missions every time you play it right?

I don' want a set pattern of missions to do.

Also can someone clarify what Krypt is.



Karried, the Krypt in the past has been a place where you spend koins to unlock various items such as concept art, videos, music, characters, alternate costumes, among other things.

Now will the challenge tower be completely different (or altered) missions every time you play? Also do you get to choose a character and play as them the whole time? Or does the mode have pre-selected characters you use?

I'm going to say that the challenges will not be completely different every time. On a test your luck challenge that will be different I'm sure as the slots will be pulled at random. But the "orange you glad I came" is a challenge where you have to be Scorpion and Sub-Zero facing Kahn. Perhaps some of the order of challenges may be changed but I think it's going to be straight forward. Like the first one is Sonya vs Jax for offense training. Maybe your character changes during but I don't think so. Perhaps the next time you play you might be Kung Lao vs Kano offense training, or not?

Any ideas on how exactly the mode will work out in terms of this? Either way, it still seems fun as hell and very creative.

The challenge with Sub and Scorp in the retro costumes is called "Retro Reincarnation" so it looks like all the retro costumes will be in the game from the start. Maybe they will be unlockable??

I knew they were in the game from the start and you get DLC codes to unlock them with preorders. What I hope tho is the DLC code is just to unlock them EARLY. And we can still unlock them through the game

The costumes will all be exclusives for when you reserve the game at a certain store or area but after about 2-3 months, they will be downloadable on the playstation store or where xbox gets their DLC stuff from. Its like that for almost everygame that has alternate costumes for reserving the game. It might be free ot might be like 1-2 bucks (for US people).


This game is amazing...... After seeing all this replay value in a fighting game genre.... I would have to say... Mortal kombat... game.... of... the ... YEAR! Period. After all the complaining and half assing and generic characters and crap they did on MK over the years, they deserve some praise where praise is due. GAME... OF... THE. YEARRR. period.

I just nutted myself. Holy Shit this looks GREAT. This is one game I will never return to gamestop. The MK team is doing such a great job. I won't need to play another MK game until the next gen console is out. (probably because it will take me that long to beat this challenge tower.

I'm pretty sure that klassic/retro costumes & fatalitys are only early unlocks.

Okay, after managing to find words to what I need to say, and I know I'm probably a little late with my perspective on this... Who the fuck cares.

Ahem...

First things first, I thought Kintaro was really in the game until I took a second look at the challenge name and it was just Zombie Goro... They really had me there. Haha.

Secondly, I thought the Asian guy from Heroes was talking to us, instead it was just Mike Birkhead haha.

If those who had doubts about Baraka, even though I'm sure no one did but if so, then here's more proof that he's in.

What caught my attention immediately was Nightwolf's axe getting thrown into Jax's head after failing. I loved the animation that went on with that, his mouth moved while falling so he just doesn't look completely frozen. (I've been realizing I'm taking closer looks with this ever since I began my animation class)

Fucking Stryker, man!!!

One tiny, itty, bitty little complaint... Sindel's hair is just like Kitana's. Yuck!

Limbless fighting... that totally reminds me of the one fighting game that managed to make Midway lose an employee over... Hmm, I wonder what game that could be? Haha. But still, that's really interesting that they would do something like that. Bloodstorm managed to make opponents lose their limbs throughout the matches while this is taking them away before the fight even begins. I think this is a really cool concept to put in, but it just totally reminds me of Bloodstorm.

Retros look cell colored characters, which isn't an issue, but they do stick out big time. They're very bright, but who's that to say, their old costumes back in MK1-Trilogy were very bright. At least they were nice enough to show us what the Retros look like in this game, hopefully it's not an issue to anyone.

Yay Test Your Might!!! The other test games are cool too, but I was seriously begging for Test Your Might to make a comeback, I knew that it was going to, I got my wished, I'm satisfied, on to the next part of the video.

I'm liking the slot machines, upside down combat would be really fun to play. I wonder if these slot machines are also used in online mode as well. If so, I cannot imagine how fun it will be fighting some stranger online with whacky modes during the fight. It would make online fighting ten times more fun and better to play rather than just fighting.

Shooting galleries and teddy bears, another interesting touch to add to the game. Humor might be something I didn't want, but at least they incorporated it to where it's not out of whack or completely out of control like it was during the MK3/UMK3 part of the series. This is the kind of humor that I can endure.

Orange You Glad I Came seems to be a really fun game as well, I can't wait to reach to that challenge.

Dream Kombat is going to give me a headache, but it's another that I might be interested in while fighting.

Headless Kombat + Rainbows are a good mixture together.

Dark Kombat is going to be another challenge that caught my attention as well.

Of course, two days in after the game's release, there's already going to be some video on Youtube showing us how they beat the last challenge.

Other than that, I cannot wait to get my hands on this game even more than I used to. This was a really sweet announcement. This is ten times better than having Conquest being added in. Seriously, this is just one of the greatest things I've seen throughout the last several months of released information.

They should through a few posts before replying. I saw at least 5 separate "Robo-Smoke" debates within a few pages. I'm not extremely annoyed...I just wish people would read thoroughly before constantly repeating what others have said.

And here i thought people said it can't get any better with the noob saibot release trailer.

Guess Ed, and staff said "look at them saying is this the big revel about the truck tour. Man they are whining." "I know show off some of the gameplay of the new tower mode, oh and throw in the classics, that will make them piss thier pants."

Yes Ed, we pissed our pants, oh thank you so much.wow
