Poofs can be chic and tasteful. They are only tacky now because of Snooki.

I always though Kitana would look good with a poof and a crown/tiara, since MKDA. Sindel had a poof in her MKD alternate.

Er.....I'm not sure if I feel positive about the "poof" hair style.

No.



But that's the thing. It doesn't look (at all) like long flowing free hair. It looks like an unnaturally stiff pony tail. It's not like it resembles that pic (or her MK2 style) one single bit.

Even WonderWoman's hair style in MKvsDC looks better (and that was a bad one).

I like the down hair that Kitana has because it shows her femininity, She grew up a trained fighter and assassin, yes, but her beauty was also a big part of her character, I think the long hair compliments her persona nicely. I really like the poof style that she has too because it adds to the femininity. Mileena's hair is short and covers much of her face, goes along with her femme fatale persona, She looks beautiful, but get too close she will eat your face off.

argeed.


Her MKDA hair was the best.

Loved her MK:DA hair, although the animation was a bit wonky. If you knocked Kitana on her back (I think there's one animation for her character where she rolls about on the floor holding her face after you defeat her in the first round) you could see the hair coming through her body or flailing around in odd directions. The same happens with Jade's hair in Deception and with her loin cloth, notice in Armageddon how her cloth goes through her leg whilst in the Fan Zi fighting style.

I think NRS need to improve their flowing animations because hair and loose fabric usually come across as really stiff, awkward looking animations. Kitana's hair is at a beautiful length, but it looks shit if it's not animated properly. Until they can find a way to animate it correctly, they should probably keep long hair styles and loin cloths to a minimum.

As someone who's worked on 3D before, from what I can see that Kitana's hair doesn't have a natural flow perhaps because the hair model doesn't have enough 'bones' in it. As for the wild windmill effect it perform when she moves around too much could be that the pivoting points for those bones are too loose.

NOTE: What I meant by 'bones' is the mechanism that 3D programs use to allow the character to move.

Totally agree with wdm...I've always preferred Kitana with her hair hanging down, simply because in general I think a woman with lose hair looks way more beautiful than one with a pony tail or a bun or whatever..It suits Kitana's character well, and so does her tiara. I don't, however, like the "angularity" in Kitana's hair...

I hope they make a Kitana vignette, I mean they really should, Scorpion/Sub-Zero Kitana/Mileena two most notable feuds in the MK universe. also did anyone else notice that Kitana's hair animation looks a lot better in the vignette, still a little glitchy, but hopefully they will have it completely fixed when the game comes out.

Can't they just animate long hair the way they animated Sonya's super sexy bangs in MKvsDC and this game?

Or is that not possible?

I've wanted Kitana to have her hair down since again since forever so I like the style but I can't deal with the terrible way it's animated. If they couldn't animate it properly they shouldn't have given her hair that long or in that style.

who the fuck cares

Ash Crimson agrees, yo.
