[QUOTE=Pennywise;47318535]The obvious workaround is transitioning him into a regular roster character. [sp]Shut up I can dream[/sp] [editline]5:42[/editline] Although Freddy then, Jason now, and the Predator rumor seem to be paving the way for "the horror icon dropping in for this game" becoming a thing going forward. How many games do you think they could go on doing that? Because I'd be all for seeing Hellraiser cenobites showing up, but it also seems like you'd quickly wind up in the realm of Chucky and Pumpkinhead if not careful.[/QUOTE] You start adding Action movie characters duh. Terminator and the guy from Die Hard. [editline]14th March 2015[/editline] no but seriously, Warner Bros does own DC Comics....
[QUOTE=postal;47317829]That character leak is still going strong. All that's left is Erron and [sp] Liu Kang [/sp], since we already saw the images of [sp] Jax [/sp]. I wonder if [sp] Liu [/sp] really is gonna be the final boss since they've been so secretive about him, assuming the leak is right of course. They did say it was gonna be a surprise, didn't they?[/QUOTE] He's pretty much the go-to choice, none of the other bosses are remotely recognizable compared to him and that includes Shinnok. I can say Sub-Zero or Scorpion or [sp]Liu kang[/sp] in public and people know who that is, and not even Shinnok qualifies for that level of recognition. My money's on [sp]raiden or liu kang [/sp].
[QUOTE=goluffy;47317048]I think the most interesting thing about Jason is that he's going to need multiple unique intros for every MK characters.[/QUOTE] yeah that's gonna be pretty interesting to say the least "I have no quarrel with you!" "..." "alright well see ya"
[QUOTE=Bread_Baron;47253799]Apparently there's been a leak, I'm [url=http://i.imgur.com/BGsDZ8S.jpg]tagging this[/url] just in case but [sp]Jax, Sonya, Johnny and Kenshi[/sp] confirmed.[/QUOTE] Boon just replied to some guy tweeting this [url]https://pbs.twimg.com/media/B_93wFKWoAAVR6e.jpg:large[/url] seems to match to the bottom left one in that leak there, I'm guessing that's the revenant version of him.
Was this posted yet? It seems to be the revenant version of [sp] jax [/sp] [url]https://pbs.twimg.com/media/B_93wFKWoAAVR6e.jpg:large[/url] matches to the bottom left pic from that [url=http://i.imgur.com/BGsDZ8S.jpg]concept image that was leaked[/url]. Boon even replied to it on twitter so I feel like this must've been shown somewhere and I just didn't catch it.

[QUOTE=usaokay;47323544]I hope the QTEs are just like Injustice. If you fail one, you start with a lower health bar.[/QUOTE]It looks like the QTE segments are used in place of brawls that wouldn't work via normal vs mechanics, so it may actually be possible to get murdered if you botch consistently or on the [i]really[/i] important ones. Personally, I found the Injustice method to be kind of... flaccid. I mean I recall a section where not touching the controller at all led to my character being absolutely saturated with machine gun bullets throughout the entire cutscene, just to shrug it all of with only a minor health ding in the resulting fight to show for it. I kind of appreciate interesting failures/deaths unique to the situation for royally fucking something up, y'know? (As long as it isn't difficult to succeed and progress normally, of course)

Johnny and Sonya are really awesome, Johnny's play style in particular looks very fun. That Story Mode footage looks incredible, has me absolutely excited to get my hands on the game.

In all MK versions, I've mained Cage/Carlton, but now I have to choose from three (well, Sonya is his ex-wife, so that counts?!), it's gonna be awesome :D

Not sure it's gonna be possible for me to choose anyone but Erron now. Full Eastwood mode all day everyday.
Holy meatballz.... [sp]Baraka[/sp] slicin' time :))
[QUOTE=usaokay;47346192]Jump scares are the worst.[/QUOTE] Especially if you have arachnophobia. Not going in the krypt any time soon I guess.
Has Ferra/Torr had any involvement in the story so far? Right now they seem to be just, there. I imagine they're gonna be goons for Mileena? Also the lack of cyborgs is depressing as fuck. They had the perfect opportunity to combine Sektor and Cyrax into a single character. ... Actually, now that I think about it I bet one of the DLC characters will be one of the above with the other's general moveset as a variation.
Wheres my Liu Kang. You can't have MK without Liu "Hyaaa" Kang

I'm pretty sure that's just a generic Tarkatan from the screenshots and not Baraka.
It might be too early to judge them but is anyone else slightly disappointed that the new heroes are the less beloved offspring of our old heroes in the same game, instead of filling the roster with characters as cool as Kotal and Erron Black?
Ed tweeted that they are preparing a "big" Kombat Kast for tomorrow.
[QUOTE=chmidth;47347835]Ed tweeted that they are preparing a "big" Kombat Kast for tomorrow.[/QUOTE] My guess would be Ferra/Torr or Goro.

Plus there are only like 4 "offspring" characters from what I recall out of what 24 spots.
