Should they keep Stage Kills in MK7?

I would definately keep stage kills. I think almost every stage should have its own defining stage kill. Stage kills adds another element to the fighting in which you will need to constantlty focus on. I feel that the 3D motion which was used for mk:d allowed you to either escape from being knocked in a stage kill or position yourself to knock an opponent into the stage kill.
Stage kills also add an extra surprise in the fight especially if you have never even seen it done. For example: when I fought in the Steel Mill stage I was all of a sudden knocked on to the hot orange metal, (trying to crawl out and screaming in pain), thinking I was gonna get out and only suffer some damage when *SLAM*, I was crushed. Another example is when I fought in the Golden Desert stage, I knocked the my cousin into the wall where rocks began to hit his head and he lost some life, I was ready to finish the fight when when *GIFT* I was crushed by a Buddah. So unexpecting these 2 were the first time I seen them but of course I now know what happens in each stage kill and enjoy most of them still.
Some of the other stage kills are classic and innovative such as the infamous Pit, flesh frying dead pool, death defying falling CLiffs!!, 2 spiky meat purifying slaghter house rotators, slicing and dicing lasers in quan chi's fortress, quick penetration of spikes in the dragon temple, etc. These all have unique, funny, and down right brutal effects when ever it happens!
One thing which I love about stage kills is that it will allow you to turn the tables in the match drastically. For example: Say you only have 17% of your health bar left and your opponent has 50% of his bar left, Your last hope for winning that round could be a stage kill if you are able to pull it off. If you have ever one a round like that, then you know how good it feels to still be standing after that brutal incounter.
The only thing I would add/change to the stage kills in MK:D is at the end of it. I think it should say "FATALITY" when you kill them with a stage kill your final winning round.
Please post ur opinions on Stage Fatalities: Likes/Dislikes, Want it/Dont want it, Hate it/Love it, etc.

I like both of your ideas (Smoke and Baraka) and feel the same way as you do.
Smoke heres my take on your idea. Say you have 50% or more health and you get knocked in to a death trap, you should not even have to press any button to stay alive, you should automatically be able to get back to safety some how. If you have 50%-25% of health, THEN you should have to tap really fast to save your self. If you have 25% or less health, u should die like on Deception's death traps.
Baraka heres my take on your idea. I agree with pretty much everything you said and would only make note to one thing. Like you said you should be able to knock ur opponent to several places but in some of those places but definately not all there should be death traps in the mix. For ex. In the slaughter house, you cannot be killed by a death trap if you are on that first level with that skull but if you get knocked through the floor, you can get knocked in to that grinder.
Talk to ya later

yes, instant kills aer a must. I am tired of the illogical fights in MK.
Also instant kills should be implemented. But for fatalities, they should remain untill the end of the match.

Deathtraps yes, but they should REALLY define the danger zone a little better. Many times I would be knocked into a trap and be, in my opinion, nowhere near the thing.
I also think the moves that send you into a trap should be a little more limited..only the most powerful moves, and none of the projectiles.
Although, if a projectile sent you into one, then I like what the person above said..a struggle to get out.

I agree with you on the projectiles knocking you in. I hated it for example, when I fought my friend and he kept knocking me into deathtraps with Liu Kangs high fire ball.
I kinda like it when I knock (or even get knocked into) a death trap when we are no where near it because it is so spontanious and adds an extra surprise in being killed.

I think the deathtraps were perfect in MKD. I disagree with the idea of being able to get out, because it takes the fun out of deathtraps. If you hit your opponent into one and they get out it is discouraging to you and continue the battle less enthusiastic. And realistically, if you are knocked into a meat grinder or fall off a cliff, how could you escape? So i think the deathtraps are perfect the way they are and should stay that way.

Good point! I guess a resolution to that problem would be to have different kinds of death traps. Some death traps such as meat grinders, lava, dead pool, etc. that cant you cant possibly slip away from realistically should kill yiou the same way they do in MKD when you can be killed with 100% of health left. Other deathtraps such as the pit, hells foudary, dropping buddah, closing spikes in dark prison, etc. are escapable or avoidable and should abide by the methods I mentioned earlier. Also the animations should be adjusted accordingly to which death trap you are trying to escape from. I just feel that being able to control your character when he is in danger of some death traps makes you feel more like you are in control of everything you character goes through.
As for what you said MKKitana, MKD does infact allow you to turn off death traps.

IMHO(in my honest opinion) I believe that if you get knocked into a death trap by the biggest noob, You are in fact the noob.
A very good fighter knows how to avoid being killed by death traps and would rarely if ever be knocked in it by a noob unless of course you let them win

Yes! They need to keep deathtraps! Like when your really frustrated with someone and you can't beat them (other than Onaga he can't go into deathtraps) you can push them in a deathdrap and they die instinlly that's the magic of deathdraps! I think they should keep the Golden Dessert and Dark Prison areanas!
