Mortal Combat: Deception

<div class="IPBDescription">What will it take to be good?</div> I have always been a great fan of MK, and MK: Deadly Alliance was a fantastic game.

Of course, it was not without it's flaws, and so I very much hope this game will build up on MK:DA, but even better.

What will it take to officially make this game better than it's predecessor? Here's a small list of my few essential priorities...

1: Interactive environments. The trailers have already shown that they've worked on that, so I won't have to worry too much about it...

2: More fatalities. Vengeance had some pretty good stuff but...How about a different fatality for each style of combat? Babitality? Friendship? And most importantly...Brutality?

3: Dan "Toasty!" Forden. This should need no explanation.

4: They better keep The Kypt. MK has always been great at adding bonuses and keeping the game fresh, so I'm expecting alot...


What's your input?

    You've been playing it for 11 years? You could have spent all that time socializing, and spending time with your girlfriend.

    You would be suprised. The 3D MK ones you see at the arcades are crap, but DA was extremely fantastic. See that Cooking With Scorpion thing? That was an unlockable video that you purchased from The Krypt, using Kombat Koins you got from winning matches.

    Woa, I thought you were bsing us or something and photoshopped that. If that is real that would be incredibly awesome.

    A quick google search reveals that, indeed, Deception has The Krypt.

    Deception's main problem is that it only has one or two fatalities per character. WHY? Ask anyone what the worst thing about Deadly Alliance was, and they'll say it didn't have enough fatalities... I simply don't understand why Deception couldn't have included at least a couple different types of fatalities, if not more.
  • OmegamanOmegaman Join Date: 2004-01-11 Member: 25239Members
    Each character now has two fatalities and a Hara Kiri move. Plus, the stage fatalities.

    No much of an improvement, but it is an improvement...

    Yeah, but that's coming from... what, 4 or 5 types of fatalities in MK3? I know they can do better than that. The fans want more blood and messy decapitations, dang it!

    I never really liked MK...

    I like Dead or Alive more, or Tekken.

    Chopping! Chooping! Meat tenderizing! Chopping!

    :P


    Personally, I think the #1 biggest thing about MKD is the online play. For the first time ever in any fighting game to my knowledge, you can play against the entire Interweb. So if your best friend gets a girl friend and tells you to go to hell and you never see him anymore despite living in the same 2 bedroom apartment you can still play other people online!

    I believe Capcom vs. SNK 2 on the X Box (and PS2 in Japan) supported online play, but don't quote me on that.

    it indeed does, but i think deception will be the first 3d one.

    Meh, MK4 Gold on the DC, ftw.


    Anyhow, I play MK for a few things - weapons, different styles, fatalities, stage kills, animalities, babalities, and the all powerful Fergality.


    Deception looks to be awesome, as I also like chess and puzzle fighter. Way to go Midway, hehe.

    Sorry, but the correct answer was "MK3 Trilogy on the N64, ftw."

    And yes, Fergality is awesome. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    I've only played 2, so let me get this straight...

    No Friendships, no Fatalities...

    Uh... I was pretty sure Isuka does have online capabilities. Sammy did online tests with the arcade version but made a request that anyone going to the test areas should please not come in cosplay lol =3

    Not sure about the PS2 version but the x-box one definitely supports xbox live just like Guilty Gear XX did ^^



    <b>edit:</b> I'm really looking forward to isuka, especially thanks to it also including a streets of rage style game called 'boost mode' which is essentially a sidescrolling beatemup for up to two players to coop while playing their fave GG chars =D

    The screen can get pretty busy in it by the looks of things...

    Are you referring to MK: Deception?

    b/c there are Fatalities, each character has 2.

    You can also make your enemy kill themselves too.
