Okay, I'm not the only one here who absolutely LOVES the sound effects in MK, right?

Like the meaty sounds, the sound of the blood gushing, Kitana's fans [apparently, lots of people love the sound of it. I love it too~], and the such.

Do you guys like it?

I think Freddy's sound effects are absolutely awesome. His blades, and even the sound when he summons the furnace...just great. smile

The sound effects are acceptable. I for one, love it when Baraka performs his first round: close win. The sound of the blade scratching the floor is music to my ear holes.

Jax has some of the most brutal sound effects associated with his move set.

Gotcha Grab and Dash Punch= Brutal.

They really nailed it with the sound effects. The one mentioned Baraka's blade scraping the floor, I LOVE it! Also honorable mentions

-Kung Lao's hat spinning before and during the fatality while on the ground

-Liu Kang's dragon roar

-the body parts hitting the floor gushing sound after Cyrax' second fatality

-Freddy's furnace coming up from hell

-Freddy's claw sounds

-the drowning effect during Rain's fatality

-Kitana's fans

-Liu's bike kick

-Lao's hat throw effect

-Reptile acid spit

-all the x-ray bone crunch sounds

-Jade's pole hitting the enemy during combos

-Sindel's ear popping fatality scream


....and alot of others I didn't mention.

However there is one thing that upsets me, the beating of the ripped out heart sound effect was not in neither of Kano's fatalities! Truly would have made it better.
Skarlet Dropping down the pit in Tag Kombat is just marvelous.

The sound effects in this game are incredible. I love them!

I am definitely very happy and very aware of how awesome the effects are. You guys remember everyone's reaction when we discovered the "special metallic sounds" that are present when you fight the cyborgs?

Little details like that make this game even more juicy and meaty. smile

Yummy.

The only thing I don't like though is that sometimes you can barely hear them.
I love hearing the blood gush D:

The sounds of blood gushing, meat getting grinded is like music to my ears in this game

I also like the screams in the game

like Quan Chi's screams when he's on fire (Same with Sindel, Sub-Zero and Scorpion in that situation)

Mileena's long, blood curdling scream when you do Skarlet's second fatality on her (Same with Nightwolf in that situation)

Noob Saibot's scream when he gets pulled into Kung Lao's hat in his second fatality (You hear it at the very end of the very first trailer)

Rain's scream when Sub-Zero pulls his spine out.

Nightwolf and Sub-Zero's screams when Raiden does his Shock move on them.

A negative opinion is still an opinion; if the thread was simply gushing over how amazing people thought the sound effects were it probably wouldn't be very interesting.

Though, he didn't really give his opinion, he just stated that he just doesn't give 2 shits and a fuck about the sound effects.

I enjoy a lot of the sound effects, especially the *clunking* when you hit cyborgs, as queve mentioned.

I have to say though, while some are good, most of the screams from the victims of fatalities are pretty weak. They usually only sound mildly discomforted. And I REALLY wish they screamed when they rose up during the Stage Fatality on Hell.

-Liu's bike kick



I found Liu Kang's bike kick to be very disappointing to the ears... He hardly makes a peep. I was really hoping for the long string of jibberish he yelled out while he did it in MK2. One of the most memorable sounds from MK to me, lol (next to Raiden's "goody-goody-gah" torpedo). sad

Not to be an eternal fanboy,
but I was *seriously* impressed with Rain's sound effects
(and his watery visual effects).

Seeing how they made his splashy sounds (MKast) was a bit gross, though wink

While I am with you on this, I think it's the fact that you only posted a lolcat picture to convey your opinion instead of an actual post with words.

I don't mind it, but I feel like some people are hostile towards opinions stated through lolcats.

This. It's dismissive, disrespectful, and immature.
I wouldn't blame *anyone* for getting mad at that type of thing.

It's only the tiniest bit different from people who post "UMAD" gifs,
and those people are usually skulled.

It's actually very different.

UMAD? is not an opinion.

What she posetd is like me posing:

"I don't care for the sound effects" and yet no one would have gotten mad at me for doing that.


Anyway, I really like the sounds in this game, I stated that a while back for one of the first trailers.

ok...and that would be all fine and good...but go down a few topics to "I Found A New Main" and look what NinjasRock posted-----> a picture of a bird instead of a cat .... and the birds face with what it said clearly indicated sarcasm was implied... that is no different than what i did... was that also not "dismissive", "disrespectful" and "immature"? yet.... look what he was told? NOTHING.... if you're going to do it to one person than i expect it to be done to EVERYONE that does it.... that's just implying that it's ok for one person to do it and not another ....what's up with that? and I don't see how me typing it is any different than the picture... I could've clearly just typed it out.... but the damn cat was just supposed to be a joke anyway but I wasn't trying to piss him off....but its JUST sound effects....yes games need them, yes they are good, but i mean... how much can you seriously discuss about sound effects... I don't see what the big deal is... its' not like I've been going around since Day1 posting stupid cats on everything nor have I really been negative towards anybody's post.... If i don't agree with something then I usually post it and state why.. and If i do i will agree and also explain why... but I put ONE dam cat and it's the end of the world? seriously?

Indeed.
I agree that they did a great job with the metallic sounds (Baraka, Jade, Kano, Skarlet, Kenshi, *shudder* Freddy).

I am also a huge fan of the sounds of Reptile's Force Ball(s).
I think it's really cool that they both sound different.

It definately makes for one of the more satisfying round win's.
I'm not great as Ermac but I keep going back to him because I love what they did with him in this game. That sound is pure awesome.

I also love the strange whoosing sound whenever Jade uses her staff. It's most noticable during her win pose when she spins on it.
And the crack you hear when Skarlet rips the blade out during her throw, brutal!

Seriously tooo many to remember.
