qftw
thanks for saving me $40 haha
Just played this flaming turd and all I gotta say is fuck all you guys who actually bought it and put more money into that asshat’s wallet. You’re just encouraging him. Gameplay is stiff as shit. Characters have no personality whatsoever. Fuck this game.
True it does play the same. Even though there’s some small sound problems, I don’t think it effects gameplay. However, as mentioned before, I hate the fact that I have to do the MOTHERFUCKING Ultimate Kombat Kodes everytime I have to load UMK3.
Could it hurt Midway to at least modify the ROM so the three characters are already unlocked at the start? I mean Namco modified the Tekken 2 and Tekken 3 ROMs to have the time released characters already unlocked at the start on Tekken 5 with no problem.
My thoughts on MKA…
Midway’s version of CFJ. Except the same fighting styles have different skins this time around. And “Konquest Mode” is just as awesome as Tekken 5’s Devil Within.
The only reason it took Midway two years to release this game (if that) is to make the intro movie as good as it is.
Hearing about the endings and what-not does’nt surprise me either. If they just slapped 60 some-odd character’s together, then why the fuck would they care about making animation stills for endings. Even Deception only had like what? 18 characters total?
And the oki games still have not changed. Sure there are a few characters from Deception that got “toned down” but some characters coughShinnokcough can still create situations where you can not roll (at least for a while anyways) and make the get up kicks useless. (And staying on the ground is also useless) I really would’nt doubt this game having the same glitches and exploits that Deception has.
All in all, I would’nt doubt if Midway made this game on the Mugen engine.
It’s selling on ebay for a pretty penny. Score!
I don’t want to buy the game.:sad:
Wow really. Just look at the thread title…it holds all the answers, even before the game came out.
I’m not expecting anything revolutionary from this game, but some of the reviews I’m reading all over the place seem really shitty right now. Maybe I’ll just rent this.
I love it when I am so fucking ahead of the times.
Now I need to see how this pile of rancid maggot shit is being recived by the holy warriors at MKO.
It seems that when you play the computer on the hardest difficulty you have no power over whether you will win or not. The only way you can win is if the computer feels like getting hit. Also, I don’t like the fact that Scorpion no longer knows Pi Gua (I don’t care if I spelled this wrong). Finally…the Air Combo system only seems to work with one particular pop-up with each character, one per style that is, and it only seems to work if the pop-up is the first hit. I have, however, connected the air combo with 4-hit combo popups such as Scorpions triangle, x, up+circle…but it only works in certain places on the map, like against walls. By the way, if you do Scorpions x, x, circle air combo while the opponent has their back to the wall, then do it again, they won’t bounce back because of the wall, so as soon as you land just press up+circle and launch em again. It is a reset combo…heh.
Please don’t compare Tekken logic to Mortal Kombat stupidity
It’s like comparing a horse penis to a douche
The game is better than deception at least.
It has a wakeup game now and a parry system. All of it seems a little sloppy but at least it’s there lol.
Also a lot of the broken shit like inf’s and shit from deception are gone. I’m sure theres more broken shit but at least they got rid of the old broken shit so we can find the new broken shit lol.
Oh yeah konquest is pretty cool. Kinda like shaolin monks. Regardless it’s mindless fun. I’m usually not looking for a deep fighter when I play these new mk games.
UMK3 on XBL arcade next month FTW!
First of, I actually read the whole thead and it took me like 3 hours to do it including checking out some links to MKO and stuff.
Just a side note, I do think you guys were hard on that MK fan way back and he was right when he stated that some of you speak as if your words are 100 % correct and godly and there is no such thing as a different opinion. Eventually it starts to sound bad similar to that kid who spends too much time in the arcade and beating everyone and not enough time trying to get chicks.
With that said, Let’s be serious now with ourselves without ripping someone else’s opinion. MK is BAD, BUT it’s successful and thus it’s continued existance. In the US MK: D did better than Tekken 5 and the combined efforts of VF4 and it’s patch evolution.
Also way back, someone made a statement that one of the things that made MK bad is because it has bad characters. I beg to differ. MK has the BEST characters of any fighting game, BUT espeically this generation, the team created a lot of very bad characters just to pad the amount of characters in it. Like Su HO (spelling asside). But come on, Sub-Zero, Scorpion, Jax, Raiden, Kenshi, Cyrax, Repitle (better and more original than Soul Calibur’s lizardman), Shang Tsung, Shau Kahn, Liu Kang, the list goes on. Even the 6th incarnation created a good character in Onaga. Tekken 5’s Boss is Jinpachi, come on that isn’t even close. Now tekken is the better game but not character wised. Virtua Fighter, the best fighting game ever has very poor and unclassic characters (Lion Rafael), and boring as well. But maybe part of it is because they were never given competent stories or cut scenes and endings so they stayed being bland.
For those of you saying you guys will by this game for UMK3, I question if you guys are either DUMB, Rich, or have some poor financial advisors because there are a million and one ways to get a hold of UMK3 without paying 50 or 60 bucks for it, including Midways own Midway Arcade Treasures 2.
For those of you saying I know this game is bad but I’ll buy it anyways, I question you guys as well, but not as much as one buying the game just for UMK3.
For the dude asking which game should he buy, this, Tenkaichi 2, KOF MI2, or whatever poor fighting is out now. I say, don’t expect much from these games as they are updates to previous games. One video of MKA told me that it’s still the cluncky stiff and unbalanced fighter from the last two games. Nothing even close to being a copetent fighter, videos of the other two are the same. Why don’t you go buy VF4: evo, Tekken 5, Soul Calibur 3 (hopefully PAL version) along with 2D greats like SFaniversary and the alpha anniversary and in your hands will be 8 of the greatest fighters around. And if you already had these and/or don’t like these, then save your hard earn money and buy Final Fantasy XII. One of the big knocks i had against CFJ was not just that it was a poor reshash of old games, it’s because when it came out there were games like Half Life 2, San Andreas, Metal Gear solid 3, Devil may cry 3, WoW, Madden, Grand Turismo 4, Metroid Prime 2 and others all coming out at within 3 months of each other which begs the question, why buy a bad fighter when there are new AAA titles out. remember, fighting games have to compete with their rivals as well as other games for your all mighty dollar.
Online play no matter how much it is look down upon here in SRK.com is essential. At least attempt it and maybe in future generations, you can perfect it. remember for those people always talking about tournaments, Not everyone is an adult, not everyone has a car, Not everyone doesnt’ have kids and responsibilities, there is a million and 2 things you could be doing then spending money and time to travel to places like Las Vegas. So despite me agreeing that this generation of MK games suck, it doesn’t mean that there isn’ t online play online.
Finally, a rant on the State of MK. Let’s get one thing straight, MK1 appeal was the shock. Years later when that didn’ t matter as much anymore, we see that it’s a very poor game. hopefully you came to that conclusion earlier. MK2 was much better, but I to am in agreement that the game was slow, turtle fest, I’m not in agreement with the general MK lovers that it was the high point of the series. MK3 to me was the pinnicle, best stages, best story, best characters, best gameplay system, used environment a bit, still contained the best boss (holdover from MK2). When I was young, the genesis port of MK3 was better than the port of UMK3 so that is why I put that one ahead of UMK3, i haven’t revisited the more arcade perfect ports of UMK3 much and definitely not competitively since so I never got the overwhelming love from UMK3 but I do understand why it’s there and not MK3. midway had a stream of very poor MK related games whihc sunk them to a state of no longer mattering (MKT, MK4, MK mythologies, MK special forces, plus the 2nd MK movie, the horrendous cartoon on USA, and that live action show.). Despite how bad MKDA and MKD was gameplay wise to some of the eyes of people on the board, what it did was at least bring MK back to the realm of partially playable game and a player in the fighting game genre again. So what does Midway needs to do. Simple,
Figure out how to create a competant fighter which includes projectiles and heavily ranged moves, something even Capcom couldn’t figure with it’s street fighter franchise, OR go back to what you KNOW you can do. That is, create a next generation graphically great, 2D fighter where some of these over the top moves are accepted. take some time and look at Guilty Gear to see how 2D have progressed from the Street Fighter 2 days that you originally copied MK after. While your at it, take a look at SFIII and some of the other 2D games to see how game play should be done and how parries should be done. Thow online play as well, give it some minigames like puzzle kombat and I’m sure Nostalgia, brand loyalty, and some new players might make it as profitable as the very profitable MKDA and D, but at the same time, regain respectability and playability in the hardcore players where people take fighting game seriously.
Thanks.
YOU ARE THE BEST FROM NOW.
[Seriously though, my eyes]
Hmm. I’m liking it, but it is technically horrible in the story, and just how much was recycled. I’m liking the gameplay fixes, Kreate-A-Fatality system, and Kreate-A-Fighter though.
I haven’t even touched Motor Kombat, and I get this weird feeling I still won’t know how it plays 7 months from now. Meh.
the mk:a intro video so you don’t have to waste $$$ on this turd :lovin: http://youtube.com/watch?v=APvvE_o7sBQ
Lmao, at 1 point I said wtf is Kratos doing in this game?
For the person that read this whole thread, you are a trooper :tup:
