MK9 | News & Discussion (Updated as news happens!)

Again, they done that before. Almost all the heroic characters didn’t return from Deadly Alliance to Deception because most of them were dead. What makes it worse for this game is that there are only a handful of heroic characters left at the end of the story. If they chose to not bring back the dead characters then the living villains will neither have to change alignments or put their differences aside to work for a common goal. That should be very easy to do with the villains that remain

Exactly. All that’s changed is the context. Hell, you even fight them at the end of MK9 even though they’re ‘dead’.

Just means the heroes are outnumbered instead of the villains being outnumbered. Might make a nice change for once. And even then, that’s if I ignore the swapping of sides that would take place as the dead heroes inevitably tell Quan Chi to suck a dick.

I wasn’t talking just heroes. I said cast. If you look at playable characters, around half the cast is dead. Or just under half. There will be a significant amount of resurrection next game.

Quan Chi did it with Scorpion, they could easily make a new character (or make Raiden an Elder God or something along those lines) to do it for others.

Though most of the deaths have been on the hero side. Aside from Khan, Shang and Motaro (maybe Noob) are the only villains that bit the dust. The others were merely KO’d or status left unaccounted for.

Sindel is also dead (again).

As long as CSZ lives, I dont give a damn who dies.

Too bad for you CSZ’s existence in the next MK is based upon how well he’s recieved. I don’t know where I read it but that was the plan. If people don’t like him, GGPO.

I personally want my Sub-Zero to be human. They can keep Cyber around as a what-if character like Evil Ryu and Human Smoke in post-MK2 games

Cyber Sub Zero is a nice idea for an extra. If they plan to keep him that way THEY CAN FUCK RIGHT OFF.

raiden goes back in time again and returns in the nick of time to save everyone, and then doesn’t bbq you know who at the end.

you mean liu kang
who is you know who? :rofl:
i think the klassic robots are a hack
cuz mk3 cyrax is at the desert waving his arms like a boss
and it could be like skarlett’s model

I think he’s better off BBQ’d considering what happens in his arcade ending

Has anyone on 360 been checking to see if the parry glitch got ninja’d?

And I wonder what ridiculous way they have thought up to bring the cast back alive in the next game? Lol.

Deus Ex Machina!

Raiden: Elder Gods! Please return the fallen heroes to the realm of the living!
Elder Godz: k kool

Shinnok: Quan Chi! Return the fallen baddies to the realm of the living to serve me!
Quan Chi: um ya sure

CSZ is purely an improvement on the original, works for me. On top of that, human smoke is pretty awesome, so yeah, we’re good.

what does yomi mean?

I hear that word brought up a-lot now a days.

Also Our favorite pole girl.

Yomi is pretty much knowing what your opponent is going to do next and reacting correctly.

Ermac’s teleport is pissing me off. Can’t cancel into it from a jump quick fast enough -consistently-. When I get it done right it’s a easy 50% with 1 bar, so I’m tryna work it into my brain.

Ermac’s teleport is where the excessive negative edge comes in handy. You can do JK with 4, and then d,b immediately after to get JK xx teleport easily.

God bless you! I was always doing similar with Scorpion to make life easier when doing something in the demo, can’t believe I forgot to try and apply it here. Thanks again!

Edit: Yep, getting it done like 90% of the time now. If it fails I knows it’s 100% my fault.

Edit 2: I’m sucking real bad at cancelling into it perfectly this evening.", lol.
