I really want to get some HQ shots of her boots and gloves. They look pretty cool.

*sigh* I wish she had more straps around her body. She'd look even more epic.

And what happened with the bullet holder around her chest as seen in the concept art? I think it looked great in the picture. Maybe it just threw the costume off in-game?

Agreed.

Most of the time its the little details that make all the difference.

I can honestly say that I'm 100% pleased with this costume (90% in regards to her primary).

I hope we get some RED alternate versions of it. It would fit her so well.

Yup, exactly. I feel I'd be doing a disservice to NRS if I didn't voice my honest opinion on even the tiniest thing whether it be good or bad. I will never be 100% satisfied with anything I see but I can be content and happy with whatever it is. I am very content and happy with this alternate. It's a great and surprisingly well thought out costume. It fits Sonya. I just happen to hate the stupid sunglasses. To each their own I suppose.

I like the alternate better than the regular outfit. Wished they brought back her fatality from Deadly Alliance. It was my favorite. I wish she played more like she did in Deadly Alliance also.

I'm one of the craziest Sonya fans out there and I definitely agree that the lack of a shirt in her default was a terrible idea. However, the overall costume is far from being terrible, imo.

Regarding her second Fatality, I understand why you love her MKvsDC Neck breaker as your favorite Fatality ever, but, what is it about this one that makes it stand out as much?

I personally find the execution and look badass. However, the overall presentation is so simple and (imo) weak when compared to her specials and past Fatalities that I can't help but to feel disappointed.

It might grow on me, but, for now, I just feel extremely disappointed she didn't decapitate the victim in similar style/fashion as her Mk4/MKvsDC Neck Breaker...she should have stayed on top and spin around.

Oh, and I'm bitter there is no Kiss of Death (for now, anyways). Hopefully its somewhere there, hidden...or as DLC.

Sonya's fatality is the only thing that bothers me, she must have robotic legs or something to be able to split someone in half like that.

I seriously hope you are right.

This would be a first for Sonya....and what a bad time to do it (right when the game is being "rebooted" and brought back to life).

I'm severely disappointed by the *bullshit* they gave her for her second Fatality.

Yes, it looks cool and she looks badass. However, if that concept was to be used, it should have resembled her MKvsDC Neck Breaker in terms of execution and presentation.

Instead of flipping over to the other side, she should have stayed with the lges up in the air, twist and spin like a helicopter while holding the weapon thingy, and than fly back down.

This is just too simple and, well, unimpressive when compared to her special moves and other Fatalities.

The_Truth Wrote:

Now, as far as the outfit itself it's definitely better than her primary which honestly is not only non-functional but also about as far away from military as you can get. As said previously this is a very Lara Croft costume. This is something somebody would wear possibly if they had to do serious warm weather hiking. Thank fucking god she is not wearing stupid ass heels.

I see this as a survivalist kind of outfit that I actually advocated for in the past. When the world has gone to shit you need to think and dress appropriately. This is something she can run/climb/swim/fight in. Have a good ruck or backpack and she could make do and scavenge with ease.

I approve of this outfit except for the sunglasses. Finally NRS you've done something right in regards to Sonya's dress. You have my thanks and appreciation.


Totally agreed.

We've been getting a "Lara Croft" vibe from her since MKvsDC, and the outfit fits her and fits the mood of the game really well.

I too see it as a "survivalist" costume. Beautiful.

The_Truth Wrote:
I hate the sunglasses. She's wearing a hat there's no need for sunglasses especially since they look like they belong on the face of a third world communist dictator.

Hate, hate, hate, hate, hate the aviator sunglasses. I mean for crying outloud she's in the military. She's almost 100% more likely to have a pair of shaded Oakley eyepro that not only look cooler but are ballistic.



I mean hell, Stryker wore clear eyepro (which seemed to be modeled after Oakley M Frames) in his Armageddon primary and he's a freaking cop. So yeah, hate the aviators.


I love the sunglasses they gave her. She looks badass and tough.

I dare to say they also add to the sexiness of the overall look.

However, I do understand that you are involved with the military, so, maybe those other ones would have made more sense.

Still, I have no complaints despite the fact that its a shame she doesn't have more straps around her body. Something a tad more "futuristic".

JADEdSCORPION Wrote:
AHHH YES!! That second outfit and that second fatality are PERFECTION!

I'm glad they didn't give her the Kiss of Death. Was always a boring fatality in my opinion. This is much more military and classy/sexy/cool. SONYA BETTER WORK!!


Her many Kisses of Death kick the crap out of her new Fatality. I pray to God that its included as a 3rd hidden Fatality OR at least as a DLC.

Her second Fatality? Its pretty much bullshit for the glorious Sonya Blade.

A character with so much potential in special moves and so many great Kiss fatalities deserved something more than the bullshit they gave her. I won't be this mad if the Kiss is in as a hidden, I promise.


AWWW tongue

I really really agree that she should have a kiss of death fatality, but I must say sonya is the most realistic character ever now.
I mean I wanted her leg splitt and we got it YAY, I also wanted to see something new for my fave girl, and I must say now I have seen it is is badass en really realistic YAY and it gave me the shivers
I mean Queve I love you for also being the greatest Sonya fan, but I really think and REALLY HOPE that this will work out for you with the 2nd fatality. ( I can not stop watching it )
I think Sonya still is full of potential, seen so far she is the absolute best character.

BUT I also hope that her 3rd one will be a kiss of death. Purple Orb or Fire one. So let us keep our fingers crossed grin

LOVE YOU

AND her outfit just amazes me, it is ffin great. I love it from cap to boots grin and I really love the sunglasses

I’m disappointed that a new version of the kiss hasn’t as of yet been presented, however I love her second fatality it’s low key, brutal, sexy, classy and to the point, I also find the victim’s facial reactions humorous as well. Both of Sonya’s fatalities reflect her personality and character, and they aren’t as exaggerated and over-the-top as some of the others.

Anyword yet on an ingame bicycle kick, I mean other than her X ray is it available as a special move?

I've said it before but I like my finishers to be quick and dirty. The more spectacle a fatality has the more I tend to dislike them with a few exceptions.

So that's why I like this one. It's quick and dirty and it totally suits her. Also it reminds me of the way Cammy kills people in Street Fighter II V which was bad ass then as well.

I'm sure there's a kiss somewhere. Looking at characters move lists it seems that almost everyone has three fatalities.

Her second Fatality is pretty cool, definitely a nasty way to go, but I think she needs something flashier thrown in for good measure. That's why I'm pro the Kiss returning. But it seems like NRS is just dropping magical fatalities unless the character's power is essential to their character.

And I'm pretty sure it's 2 Fatalities, 1 Brutality, and 1 Babality...

I bet they will make Sonya's and Kitana's Kiss of Death fatalities as their classic ones. So we'll probably get to use them soon enough. ^^

I wonder Jade's classic fatality will be... if it will be her "Staff Shaker" fatality, then I certainly hope they will do a good job re-interpret it into this game, like they did with her "Staff Impale" fatality. ^^

I hope so, too. The uses of her rings in the Story Mode is about the only allusion to her supernatural status in this game, it's one of the reasons I miss the Kiss. How long after the game do you think they'll release these DLC Fatalities? I mean, they're probably just about the easiest DLC to make, it's essentially a tiny cutscene.

I think they've done a great job with Jade's Fatalities. I'm happy with both, but especially her 2nd/Unlockable one. That one was straight brutal, especially the slowed-down scream when she rips the head off. And I can't get over Jade and her sexy poses every chance she gets in this game lol

As a side note, I'm currently watching someone play through Arcade with Sonya in HD, and was able to finally see and hear her Splits in good quality. There is actually an obvious crushing/slowly-ripping-apart sound when she's got her legs on them. It grows until they finally split apart. So you really do feel like she's "working" at splitting them, and it doesn't just seem to happen out of nowhere as per the low-quality videos.

This is all making me wanna rob a Gamestop. I was supposed to get the game today, but got slapped with bad luck and now gotta wait 'till Monday tongue ...Life...

I guess I'm also disappointed that this finisher wasn't as flashy and stylish as it could have been:

And yes, the alternate is definitely amazing. So far, my biggest complaints and disappointments regarding 2011 Sonya are:

1) No Bicycle kicks special besides the X-ray (upward and downward).
2) No shirt under her vest in her primary costume.
3) No Kiss of Death (so far).

I agree the fatality is indeed badass and that it reflects her personality pretty well. Its actually quite vicious for someone like her. However, the missing presence of a "magical flashier" finisher really stands out, imo.

PS: I think the bicycle kicks only appear in her X-Ray....sad What a shame.

It's too Lara Croft for me. For a slutty Sonya outfit, anyone could have seen this coming.

Would have liked to see more of sci-fi look for her, as she's always looked too realistic imo, except in MK3 with that colorful superhero spandex and MKDC with that futuristic style.
