I'm thinking of buying it on Steam next year, but before i buy it i have some questions.

How many stages are in this game ? How many do i have to unlock ?

How many characters are in this game ? How many do i have to unlock ?

How many attires are there ?

Who should i main ?

How's Reptile, Scorpion, Sindel, Mileena, Quan - Chi in this game ? How many specials do they have ? How's there pick up and play ability ? What are there finishers inputs and what are there distances ?

If i get it will someone will join me and teach me few tips/tricks/play some matches ?

How's the online ? Do i need a console account if im playing on steam or is it all steam providing the online lobbys and such ?

How hard is the bosses and tower mode ?

How many secret fights are there ?

How long is story mode and if i lose a fight can i continue or do i have to restart from beginning ?

These are just few questions i have.

You can't be fucking seroius... do you go through all these stupid questions with every game you buy? GO BORROW IT FROM A FRIEND. Geez. People like you made renting games a lucrative business.

There's plenty of stages, none that has to be unlocked.

There are 32 in total if you are including Kratos, Cyber Sub-Zero, Freddy Kruger, Skarlet, Kenshi and Rain. The only ones you can unlock are Quan Chi and Cyber Sub-Zero by completing the story.

There are two attires per character with the exception of the "ninjas" and female "ninjas," as they all have DLC costumes that has them wearing their costumes from previous games.

Whoever you are more comfortable with? Can't really answer that for you.

Scorpion is everyone's go-to cheap guy. Reptile is all right, decent but I don't play as him as much. Mileena isn't very powerful in my perspective, but she is decent. Sindel has a lot of great combos, great movesets. And Quan Chi is decent if you know how to play him right. I cannot answer any other because it's more so your opinion on how they play according to you, as everyone has a different standard set for these characters based on how they've played them. And you can look up their fatality inputs and moves online.

I'm sure someone will be glad to help you. I can't because school, the boyfriend, and GTA 5 are more important right now.

Online is all right, been a while since I've played it so I don't know how it is as of right now. As for your other question, I don't know anything about streaming, someone else is gonna have to answer that one for you.

Shang Tsung/Goro/Kintaro are completely easy to fight against. Kahn is a bit cheap, but once you know how he fights and all, it's fairly simple to beat him without you beating him. That or just spam the crap out of your projectiles. The Challenge Tower is very fun. There are a few hard challenges, but all and all, it was worth the inclusion.

Classic Jade, Smoke, Reptile, and Noob are the only characters that you fight against for the secret fights.

Story mode has 16 chapters, but it doesn't have you playing as all of the characters. If you lose a match, it doesn't send you back to the beginning, you just restart the match you lost.

Do you need to act like an idiot all the time or just when it comes to a thread that you don't want to spend more than five minutes in?

Oh shut up IceBaby. You didn't need to talk to me. You already answered the ridiculous questions. Stop trying to converse with me if you don't like me. It's not that hard to ignore people.

This post alone answered my question that you are indeed an idiot.

I also will advise you to take your own advice, it's not that hard to ignore people.

Good day, and acidslayer, hope my answers helped a bit.

Icebaby answered most of your questions. I'll go in depth about a few.

There's 29 stages in total. 5 of which are variations of existing stages. (Ex. Rooftop Dusk, Rooftop Day, Rooftop Dawn) 30 if you get the PS3 version and you get the Chamber of the Flame. Easily the best stage in the game.

The challenge tower is fairly easy. A couple missions might give you trouble but nothing impossible.

The bosses are pathetically easy. All you have to do is jump, punish, repeat. It's literally that simple.

Who you main depends on what playstyle you prefer. You like to rushdown? Johnny Cage is good for that. You like zoning? Noob is your guy for that. You like a defensive playstyle? Sub-Zero is good for that. Everybody plays differently though so I'd give everybody a try at least once.

I too am shocked that anyone would ask all these silly questions 2 years after a game is released... and there are plenty of websites that have enough info and videos where one wouldnt even need to play the game anymore.

I honestly thought the OP was trolling with these questions... like seriously.

So this site, a Mortal Kombat forum, doesn't count for someone to get some info about a game they want to get?

Thanks Ice,Lao for answering alot of my questions.

Is there any differences between the pc port and the console port besides Kratos and etc.

Saibot i know i could of looked up alot of this stuff but it was quicker and easier just to ask on the forums on this site.

I hope i may be able to play against some of you on here if you have the Steam version when i do decide to buy it.

Later.

You can always get the "Komplete Edition" that has everything already in the game, no DLC buys or anything.
