Getting kinda tired of potential hype FG trailers being ruined at the end with the word "mobile"...

It's the new finisher. Hypetality... :pac:

These cinematic trailers are actually making me want to play MK, that's not something I've said in a long time

Forest Demon · 13-03-2015 1:57pm

MKX delayed until summer!

For Xbox 360 and PS3 only. PS4, xbone and pc still on track.

Hmm the cynical part of me suspect it is that way not because the game is not ready but to sell more of the newer consoles

AAA gaming in a nutshell. :rolleyes:

Macal · 13-03-2015 6:34pm

Well the PS3 and 360 versions are redundant now for competitive players. I'm on the fence on whether to shell out 500 quid for a next gen console to get MK X. Plus the game's release is in the thick of college exams and assignments so I probably won't get it until June. Let's hope the MK scene doesn't die by that point.

TurboTaco · 13-03-2015 9:02pm

What console are you's going to be playing this on?

Negativity like this before the game is even out is something that could make it happen. No need to say things like that.

I'll be playing it on PS4 myself. I imagine a lot of the NRS guys will be too since most own one.

eastyy · 13-03-2015 10:41pm

watched the stream johnny cage looks pretty good the story mode looks ace but never been a fan of QTE events.

Really wished in story mode before you actually get into a proper fight using a character that it gave you the option to practice a bit first

I haven't met any of the NRS guys at casuals so perhaps that's why I can't quantify who'll be playing it. Scrubby logic on my part I suppose.

Naphiel · 13-03-2015 11:33pm

They mostly post on TYM but they're some of the most dedicated to their game. Always showing up to support it and pushing their game wherever its on.

Nutrient · 14-03-2015 12:21am

NRS lads are some of the most reliable & dedicated players in the scene.

Games have lived for months beyond others SCV/DOA/ despite low numbers.

TBF the MK scene is a special case in that regard.

Yeah but its them not worrying about numbers and stuff and just playing their game that keeps it alive.

Johnny cage is Noob saibot

the multiple styles look great. it really expands the roster.

The reveals are leaking more than a public men's lavatory. Erron Black, Jax, Shinnok and Baraka quite likely confirmed by these screenshots.

Baraka! Nice one.

Only need kabal, sektor and cyrax now. (And noob and smoke)

I read somewhere that there are six dlc in the pass excluding Goro.

The season pass is 4 characters - one of which is Jason. Don't know if Goro or other DLC is included.

I think every character in the season pass comes with a batch of costumes. Dunno for sure though.

Introducing Test Your Luck and Kustom Kombat, looks good to play for some lols at casuals.

Mileena seems to have a mix of everything across her variants from super-delayable teleports and tiger shot-style sai projectiles.

Takeda is the most interesting shown here imo. Has a serious long range attacks with his whip and some good-looking teleports in his Shinrai Ryu variant. The second variant makes him even more keepout-style but his Ronin variant seems to change him completely away from his long-range game.

Kung Jin is essentially the Hawkeye/Green Arrow here as you might expect. His first variant is about all projectile spam, the first variant looks the strongest so far.

Quitalities will make the rage quitter salt all the more better.

Sairus · 21-03-2015 4:36am

Jason, Predator, Tanya and Tremor in the Kombat Pack.

MKX looks like a pretty cool game, but man, buying a $60 game and then needing a $30 season pass, plus preordering it in order to get all the characters is a ****ing joke.

As much as Street Fighter milks people with reselling the same game a year later, I still don't feel as taken advantage of as this does.

Macal · 21-03-2015 9:21am

They clearly rushed this trailer as well with the Predator being leaked.

You can see a bit of pixel blur around Tanya's belly.

Three monks to choose from. I can't decide which monk to main.

Actually screw monks. I want ninja cowboys instead.

Xbox one and PC only? I would be into this. I like online leagues and tournaments. So I guess that the Xbox one and pc versions are not region locked.

I can see why people wouldn't want characters like jason or tremor

Anyone know any shops selling this in Ireland early? A few on my friends list (not from Ireland) already have it.

Ramza · 10-04-2015 12:46am

This game looks great, is it coming to 360? I'm a peasant and cannot afford next gen

Your best bet is the likes of Tesco, as gamestop told me yesterday they have them but cant sell them until tuesday, maybe some smaller or more stupid shops will make the mistake of selling today.

If anyone knows of anywhere, let us know please.

andre2010 · 11-04-2015 1:12pm
