Hey y'all. I was just curious to see who would like some sort of Krypt to be in Mortal Kombat 7. Not necessarily The Krypt, but something similar. I would certainly like something of that nature to return, I enjoyed unlocking / buying things. It made the game more playable in my opinion. What do y'all think?

Yes, the krypts hsould stay, but let it serve some kind of purpose other than unlocking stuff. Maybe a level-up based system would be nice, allowing you to unlock more and more interesting and USEFULL things for actual fighters.

I liked the Krypt, and I hope that it does come back, but maybe under a different form. Have the coffins all contain something that'll actually affect the characters, like a new attack, a new weapon, or a new fighting style.

Maybe the coin system could change a bit, like how one wins a match can change how many coins one earns (like getting a bonus for a flawless victory, or performing a fatality).

Yeah, I think The Krypt should return. But they shouldnt put a lot of pointless stuff in there. Just character bios/alernate bios, unlockable characters, alternate costumes, hidden stages and character artwork.

I thought the krypt was a great idea, I love all of the fun stuff like lifeguard Sonya and cooking with Scorpion. It disappointed me to see less humor in the new one. I definately agree that there should be more useful things like moves, weapons, and stuff to that effect.
I also agree that the coin system should change. I would love to be able to bet, like play someone for their coins. smile

SmokeandAshes, you can bet money in matches.. you both have to push.. R2 I think. Yeah.. anyway..

I like the Krypt and want it to return, but I hope they put stuff in there that'll affect gameplay like Shujinko. I also would like to be able to unlock a special fatality for each character. All the stuff that's necessary remains, like backgrounds, concept art, bios, etc. Bring back some humorous stuff, that's always great. I agree with you, the guy who liked Sonya Lifeguard and Cooking with Scorpion(LOVED THAT..). Maybe make you be able to unlock ALL endings from MK1-D so it's more fun to unlock. MUST be high res, though. Not that other crap where you can't see it. The bloopers sucked, by the way... too blurry. Finally, NO MORE STAFF PICTURES OR STORYBOARDS! If I wanna see your face, I'd stalk you. If I want to know how a game ends, I usually beat it. So yeah, no more staff and storyboards, but also put in useful stuff and I'm good.

OH!, thanks for telling me how to bet! I definately agree on no more staff and storyboard pics, that bugged the crap outta me! I kinda like the empty coffins too, because you know that it's the creators' twisted sense of humor and supposed to tick you off, not a plea for individual recognition.

It should return, but without minor junk like Staff pictures, character renders from previous MK games (who really wants a Sonya render from MK4?), Storyboard pics were lame as well...

The only "minor" thing that should remain is character concept artwork. I enjoyed seeing early ideas of characters in the game and even characters who didn't actually make it in as playable.

Yes the Krpyt MUST return. Just add some better stuff like Crow said!

Also probably have some Plantium koffins for some Super Unlockable Chacthers only way to open it, is with a key and Coins!!!

And maybe if they have a Super Unlockable do what Reptile did in MK 1, maybe have some clues in the koffins to tell us were he or she is hidden!!!!!!

i happen to disagree with everyone. the krypt seems like too much b/s to me. i would rather have hidden characters than unlock them in the krypt and nothing else. i guess it would be ok if there wasnt so much useless stuff in there. just my opinion

Bring back the MKDA krypt to give me an actual REASON to make me WANT to go to the krypt. Getting keys in Konquest was less of a challenge

I'd like to see it return, though if it'll take time away from work on the fighting engine then it should go. I agree that better stuff needs to be in there. All of this useless junk needs to go. I'd like to see unlockable Fatality movies in the Krypt. If you remember the Supreme Demonstrations from the older games, then it'd be like that and would be fun to show friends. I'd like some more unlockable stages and bios. The artwork is good too. It'd be nice to see some unlockable storyline history maybe. These would contained detailed history of MK's mythology and the events from the past leading up to the present. It'd be nice to read such scripts. It'd be cool if there were some movies in there too showing the characters in various scenarios or even just kata practice. And some of the fun stuff like Cooking with Scorpion should be in there too.

That goes ditto for me! I agree with all you said.

I also Agree! But Koffins HAVE to be expensive!! An unlock Characther should cost about 30,000 to 50,000!!!!

And maybe have some mini games in the koffins like chess and test your sight, etc.

Yeah, but don't put chess in the krypt! I liked chess and puzzle kombat from Deception and hope they return in MK7, but not if I have to earn them! Just put the test your might/sight in the koffins!

I also don't want the unlockables insanelly priced! Characters should not be that much, maybe only 10,000 coins each, or more, depending on the character and how popular they are!

The Krypt should return and it should give only wiseful things like concept's, renders, Fatality theater, biographies, unlockable fighters, unlockable arena's, costumes.


and not stupid things like empty koffins, koins, photo's of the staff members

The Krypt was rubbish in both games. I'd rather have them put the time into adding secrets back into the fighting part of the game, like in the classics. Where was the secret cheat menu? Hidden fightable characters? UKK's?

Bah, I hated having to unlock all those coffins full of crap, just to get a couple of remotely interesting things.

Hopefully, since Shaolin Monks is gonna incorporate secrets into the actual game once again, they'll remember how much more exciting that was and stick with unlocking secrets by doing something difficult, like what you have to do to fight Reptile in MK1 and Jade in MK2...

The Krypt should stay. I don't have the time nor the wis to -let's say bother to push X+Y+down when someone screams Toasty from the corner of the monitor. The Krypt should stay becouse it's:

convenient, easy to use, and nothing prohibits the unlocks from being in the actual game. Plus, it would add a new depth when, let's say you do a double flawless on the Pit on full moon, and few of the coffins are unlocked by it. However you must decide wich one you choose.

This goes with the fact that the coffins should hold usable and interesting things, such like character upgrades, secert levels, ability for one of the hidden characters to be fightable. You get the picture.

IMHO the krypt should stay. It Whas a VERY oroginal idea from the MK staff. with all the other fighting games you have to beat someone with someone and you have a new character.. way to easy. i think the krypt is indeed a good system and i hope they keep using it to. smile

The idea of the Krypt should stay, but maybe they can change it up every now and then. Like maybe for one game instead of having a krypt they could have something along the lines of the Elder Gods temple, with the floor shrouded in mist and instead of koffins you could have orbs floating off the ground, also covered with mist. on the inside with the amount displayed in the mist and when you unlock something the orb would glow with the mist inside seperating, showing you what you unlocked.

Yeah, the Krypt should return. I found it less enjoyable in Deception than DA. There was cooler stuff in the first one, such as little jokes, and the MK comic was awesome. They should put the MK2 comic in the next one. No more staff pictures or stuff from old games.
