The good news: I loved MK2 female ninja designs and since I don't have any UMK3 female ninja costumes, these will do nicely.

I've missed Kitana having shoulder length hair, it looks so muc better.

They're free and despite me wishing it was someone else, as long as we eventually get retros for the other characters, I can't complain, I don't care if they charge us or they're free, but I want them eventually.

What a waste.... This is so stupid. Can we have some other classics? I'm not even a big sonya fan but i would of much rather of seen the classic skin of her, Stryker, jax,.... anyone that doesnt have 3 costumes already.

The funny thing is MKII are my fave's for everyone but NRS made those look like crap.


not happy.

Really, I don't like the classic jade more than her new outfit, but that classic MK2 kitana is just SOOOO awesome!

Now I can use Mileena's sexy new outfit, Kitana's mk2 outfit and jades mk3 outfit! Awesome!!!

I really hope of the following alternate costumes next.

Rain's Armageddon or totally new look.
Skarlet new alternate
Kenshi new alternate without blindfold

Sonya's mk3 outfit
Sub-zero's unmasked mk3 outfit
Shang Tsungs mk3 and mk2 outfits
Quan chi's mk4 outfit
Mileena's Deception outfit
Kano's MK1 outfit
Sub-Zero's shredder outfit
Cyber Smoke outfit, not new character
Reptiles mk4 outfit
Ermacs mk Deception outfit


I think I named them all.


Mileena's MKD outfit will not happen. Her alt in MK9 is already remixed version of the MKD primary.
Kano's MK1 outfit is unneeded - he has MK3 outfit that is basically recolored and a bit updated version of MK1 costume.
Ermac's outfit is already resembles his MKD one, so there is no sense to give another costume.

IMHO, the only characters that can receive retrocostumes are Sonya (MK3), Jax (MK2), Kung Lao (MK2, MK3), Shang Tsung (MK2, MK3, MKDA).
All others have slightly remixed versions of old costumes, so there is no need to give them retros, that will look like simplified versions of their current outfits. It workd with ninja, since they were so prominent in their palette swapping, but for the rest of the cast it will look unneeded.

Look bland, sorry. They succeed at recreating the classic look, so props to them. But converting costumes that had an extremely simple look, doesn't look very visually interesting.

On the other Jade is seriously reminding me of B. Orchid.

I think it's a case where they probably shouldn't have remade the costumes so faithfully. I mean it's cool that they did and it turned out great for the UMK3 suits but I think taking inspiration from the Malibu comics probably would have been better, such as longer, fingerless gloves, longer boots, a thinner belt, longer hair and give the leotard more of a halterneck. I'm still not sure whether or not I like these costumes but still, it's cool that they did it and hey, it's free. I hope Mileena will get hers though. Her crazy eyes, mouth and swagger will probably carry it better.

?

First of all, that's what people do for promotion. It is actually quite necessary to show off how good these look if you want to "sell" (even if these are for free) what you are offering. They want people to download the compatibility packs, so, a video showing off the female ninjas has a much bigger impact than just 2 simple renders.

Second of all, even though you don't feel it is necessary, are you not happy we can get a cool trailer anyways? I'm not overexcited about having more ninja costumes, but, I'm still liking that trailer.


Was just my opinion.

Understood.

But, you still claimed it to be unnecessary and I explained to you why it's not and why a render would not be good enough and how it doesn't say everything.

Well they are not the best design, I acknowledge that but I like them
because for me they look more like a true female ninja. ( I still want to play as the fuckin bosses and then in my eyes this game will be complete ).

Then stop getting your hopes up.


Yeah, I suppose expecting anything really different or decent is unrealistic, as they are free after all. It would just be nice if they occasionally acknowledged that there is 20 other characters in the game


They should.
If they'd make a pack with kassic costumes for several of the non-"ninja" characters and ask maybe 5 dollars/4 euros for it or something that would be cool. I think lotsa people would buy it. It's like with the first klassic pack. Of course those were all on-disc already but NRS had to design them then as well.
But I'm suspecting that's the sort of stuff we're gonna see when they're through with the 4 DLC characters. That and maybe some klassic fatalities.
If they'd mix that up (for example 5 klassic costumes/fatalities per klassic pack) they could even charge a little more for it. I bet they'd still sell well.


This...

Ok please wrap all the ninja love up. I love the MK retro alts for the girls (should of had mileena in there as well) but please focus on original alt costumes. Take the
concepts in new recognizable directions for the non ninja cast.

This!


I find the costumes barely OK, sort of uninteresting and I really don't like the hair.

UMK3 costumes are much better, imo. However, overall I prefer MK2011 costumes (except Kitana's shitty alternate), they just look fresher.

Too bad UMK3 costumes weren't free... I really like UMK3 light blue version of Kitana since it matches the color of her fans.

I just want to say something.

I see a lot of people here saying that the MKII female ninja outfit isn't as good as the UMK3 one.

And all I have to say about that is:

You're wrong.

You're absolutely, objectively wrong.

Okay... I have to say I'm a little disappointed.... I should expect that... but...

NRS is obviously LAZY... because let's face the FACTS people....

Noob and Smoke SHOULD have been in the first 'classic skins' pack...
why?... because all these are palatte swaps... seriously... NOTHING is different other than the colors... that shouldn't take more than an hour to change...

This time... Kitana and Jade... *sigh*...
FIRST... we already got the MK3 versions of Kitana, Jade, and Mileena...
(I know... these are FREE... but still)
Mileena SHOULD have been included... (and yes, I know... already another Mileena costume that would have made her have more than anybody else)
BUT
seeing as Jade wasn't even playable in MK2... it just defies all reason to skip over Mileena... like I said... maybe another hour worth of work... if that?

I've never been a MK fan until I picked this game up a few weeks ago... (they were selling it for 34.99 on walmart website)...

and if the lack of balance and consistancy keep up this way... I won't become one after this game either...

It just doesn't make LOGICAL sense...

My opinions are facts to the only person to whom they matter.

I didn't say they were better (thought they are), just that they were as good.

But they're better.

Let's be real here.

Ain't nothing good come from MK3/UMK3/MKT.

At least in terms of costume design.
Edit: Remonster: There is something seriously wrong with the legs, but that's a fault of the MK2011 all-purpose female model, not the costume.
