25 stages, not counting the variation day/night for some of them .... that's great !

And with possibility for more to be released in future DLC content ....

All stages pretty well done, with nice backgrounds and some detailed touches

27 characters + 30 stages = no reason to complain !

yeah, Flesh Pits resembles a mix of Event Horizon and Alien Ressurection : remember that part where Ripley found the "failure clones" ? So, you can see in this Flesh Pits stage, the crio-tubes with some species samples, probably, failure "Mileena" types .....

Wow all amazing! Evil monastery & lab ftw!!

Well done, my friend! I'm Wrath from PSU by the way. Stumbled across your post in my official Mortal Kombat 9 thread.

Hey guys, I did a collage of all these pics so you can see them side by side.

They look great, but I'm a bit disappointed with the Flesh Pits... seems a too technological rather than having a magical/sorcerery feel to it.

I wish they included the Kombat Tomb. That should have been a given. I'll be looking for it in a DLC pack, NRS! That goes for the Portal stage too!

I wonder if they'll have MK3's balcony, but my guess is they won't since

But the Balcony did connect to the Soul Chamber so.......

Despite my nitpicking, I'm very impressed.

I'm impressed by the amount of arenas we are getting. I was expecting to see The Desert at night because that would have probably been at least as good as Shang Tsung's Garden at night. Will PS3 players get two GoW arenas or what is the arena with Kahn's throne in the earlier Kratos trailers? Kudos for the heads up, Scryer.

Ideal Future DLC:
-Warrior Shrine
-Bank
-Desert (Night)
-Portal
-Kombat Tomb

This f$@#ing game. Wow. The Tower, Flesh pits, Netherrealm... They all look sooo good. :)

All of these leakes reinforce the idea that my 108.56 dollars spent on the Kollector's Edetion was more than worth it.

All of them are looking awesome

I was really hoping to see the Portal from MK2, how can they leave out that one? We dont need every stage with a night/day feature. give us different stages instead.

So I'm pretty sure the flesh pits stage gives us a pretty good idea of


Regardless, this stage looks creepy and I can't wait to play on it. Though I was hoping the "Flesh Pits" would actually be like a pit of bodies being experimented on by Tsung...maybe it's a tiered stage?


Lastly, I REALLY hope the Cerberus is used in a stage fatality in the Netherrealm. I know it already has the one where you shove your opponent's face in the lava, but I think Boon hinted that some stages would have more than one fatality.

Yeah flesh pits are leaving me mildly unimpressed for the time being. feels too alien resurrectiony....

Also... why is it "flesh pit"when its a lab room? theres nothing pitty about it.... definitely not the same vibe as i got from mileena's vignette. i was thinking more along the lines of that caverny mine thing from lord of the ringswhere they made the uber orcs.... you know... more "fleshy" as opposed to sciencey

still, its cool as a stage w ith the medical stuff, vivisection etc

Wow.. They all look great, i really like the look of the Flesh pits/Labs and also Shang Tsung's soul chamber.

Very nice. ^^

Someone in another thread said I might be shadow banned. What does that mean and why would I be?

Being shadow banned means that your avatar and sigs have been disabled, either because they were too large files or that the content of them were unacceptable on this forum.

You can ask a mod about it.

Thanks Nick for the mention. :)

astounding! quite an assortment of arenas/stages to fight in. there are far more than i was expecting. many of the stages have a very serious, mature theme to them. if only the portal and the tomb would have made the cut, then it would be a perfect mk1-umk3 list. who knows, they could be dlc at some point. the flesh lab looks amazing. very, very creepy and gory.

Ok. Thanks for the response. I'm assuming my pictures werent acceptable for some reason. Even though I was only using a pic of the Reptile classic skin for both the icon and my sig and they worked for 4 days.

Hey MKshizz, this page here talks about shadow bans in the last paragraph. Also I would read the part under Icons and Signatures. It most likely addresses the issues your having. Hope this helps.

Agreed. When I heard of flesh pits from meat's MKA bio, and Mileena's vignette, I was kind of imagining a dark cold lair... similar to The Lord of the Rings when they were creating/harvesting Uruk-hai pawned of Goblins and Orcs, from the ground.

i made the flesh lab pic bigger since its a new stage for us, and the pic was rather small. i do not know how anyone could be disappointed with this splendor.

I just would have preferred it more if it didn't have the incubation chambers in it and all the metallic look to it.

If you had read the few posts above, you'd get why anyone could be disappointed with that "splendor."
