If any of you recall.. as you unlock artwork and behind the scene pictures from the krypt in mk deception.. There are alot of 4 player battle blueprints.. They custome designed arenas and camera angels to have 4 players fighting at the same time.. Now with shaolin monks fighting engine in tact.. could it be possible the the 2 big new elements there adding are ..

1- simultaneous 4 player kombat.
and
2 - A fighting engine that allows u to branch any move to any move.. For example.. in decpetion.. you can only execute certain flow of combos to allow for a smooth branch off into another stance.. or smooth completion of a combo in 1 stance... Now imagine pressing any buttons.. like a punch kick upercut then press the branch off key and it jus goes into the next stance.. That kind of fluidness would really allow for a player to create.. They should really advance the breakers to, instead of being like 1 punch deal, make it more of a dead or alive type of thing.. but less abusive and cheap.. I can beat any person strickly on reversals in that game.. so it takes away alot of the fun..
anyways thas my 2 cents..

P.S
sub-zero will have a huge role in this one.. i can feel it.. ANd if u remember.. the Ice catacombs he burries frost in.. might be a playable level as tony goskie said in MKD
