Thank you for the time you spent on the game NRS , ever since Midway I have been a fan and always will be of Mortal Kombat . Thank you for not letting the series die , for interacting with us during development & creating more and better Mortal Kombat games as the years go by .....Mortal Kombat will and always shall be one of my favorite franchises .

Yeah thanks a ton to NRS, Boon, and all of the MK team! MK has been a part of my life practically since the beginning and I have so many fond memories playing MK and enjoying it with family, friends, and even strangers. You guys and girls are the best and I want to thank you for all of the hard work and dedication that you have put into this amazing series over the years!

Love this thread!

Thank you so much for so many years of MK NRS. We can really tell that you guys poured all of your hearts and souls into this game and we all really appreciate it. The fact that you guys are just as passionate as we are about this series is just amazing. You guys are awesome! Love all of you!

And to Ed Boon, John Tobias, John Vogel and Dan "toasty" Forden (the original 4 creators).

Without you guys, there wouldn't be any Mortal Kombat. This game has really played a major role in my life as it consistently helped to take away all of the negativity that I faced throughout the years. Thank you for that.

Mortal Kombat for life baby!:D

@NRS:



Thank you for once again putting all your hard work into giving us a rather eye-popping Mortal Kombat game. I have not gone "OH SHIT" this much at the fatalities in any other MK game. Bravo, ladies and gentlemen. Take a bow.

Also, if the Team Battle mode that was confirmed in this picture is along the lines of the one that Tekken has had for years, I'll be more than happy. I've been wanting a proper Team Battle mode in MK for so long, and to finally get it would add lots of life to the game for me.

I would like to know a bit more about other potential side modes/online features, though. Test Your Luck, the potential features of a spectator mode (which I'm pretty sure is confirmed as in), some sort of tournament mode, etc.

I do indeed want to express that I am a happy, grateful fan and yeah, we are still around even though it doesn't seem like it very often. I haven't been this hyped for a game in a long time. MKX looks absolutely beautiful. After all the whining and bitching, the least you should get is a thank you, so thank you (in advance).

TC you have won the internet for this post. It's a shame these topics aren't crated more often considering what the team at NRS must go through between working on a game 24/7, having to hold back all the info they obviously want to tell people, but want to be a surprise, and dealing with some of the fan base who have been raised by wolves.

Thank you NRS for all your hard work and dedication. My hat's off to you for always coming to the table with something new in every game. You only needed to tell me the game was coming to get my money, and what I've seen so far shows me, yet again, it will be worth every penny and more.

For the same reasons you thank your wait staff for serving you the food you paid for. One, it's simply the kind and gracious thing to do. Two, gratitude gets you good service while being an entitled dickbeard makes them want to spit in your food. There is a polite and impolite way to ask for things you want or complain about things you don't like. If we, as a whole community, keep pushing demands on the studio with a tone of arrogance and disrespect, the games are not going to get better, just like yelling at the waiter will not win you quality service. More likely, the team will lose heart and stop making these games altogether. You can just tell by paying attention to Boon's and especially Himmerick's tweets that the constant negative pressure is a huge burden on them.

Fortunately, they love the fans who truly do appreciate their work and bend over backwards to make as many people happy as they can. It takes a really thick skin to be in the games business, which probably has the most hostile audience of any entertainment industry I can think of. And the MK team still delivers.

Mortal Kombat has always been and always will be. Thank you for your hard work in making this series, and striving to make MKX the best of them all. Here's to a flawless launch on April 14!

So should we tweet the link to this thread to Ed, Shawn, Tyler and the others right now, or do y'all think we can keep this awesomeness going for a few more pages?

May all the strength, all the perseverance, and all the energy stay with you guys through the nightmarish times you now face. It will remain appreciated for years and years to come. Here's a tip of the hat and a raised glass to you, NRS staff. *salute*

A big thank you to NRS for creating this amazing game, everytime I watch those beautiful trailers I can't believe how fluid it all looks, this is really amazing!

Please tell the men holding you down and trying to force a "thank you" out of you via water board that I said they can go home now.

Thosecare two completely different scenarios. First off a waiter doesnt get payed or tipped by you just for serving you. Its their JOB to serve you. They get tips for the extra things they do they should do but technically arent required to do. Secondly me liking the food a place serves has nothing to do with the waitress. I dont thank them for the food because they dont make it nor do i tip them for the food. They usually say thank you to YOU for tipping them. I dont thank them because i tipped them. Mk doesnt do anything extra for me to the point where i should reach out and thank them for a product im paying them for. Also another point when im ordering something such as food its usually catered to how i wanted it and made for ME by specifically what i asked for. mk is not catered to me or made the way i wanted it or else fujin, shinnok, kai, and others would be in minus mileena, quan chi, and others i dont want in. Completely different scenarios.

Can we not have, like, one fucking thread without someone coming in to prove how 'hard' they are? If you don't want to thank them, fine. You've made your point, now get out and stop posting. Please. Someone's trying to do a nice thing out of honest sentiment and appreciation, and there is zero reason to shit all over this. And nobody else respond to him, let the blemish pass.

May the Elder Gods watch over you, guys.

Making mans cry over here and shit.

Kudos to the guy who made this thread.

I'll keep it short and sweet, from the days I was holding a Super Nintendo controller in my hands and barely tall enough to see the screens in the arcade cabinets to the days where I'm playing on my home console on the flat screen mounted on the wall in my apartment I have always been a fan and played all the games because of the efforts that everyone had contributed in making these games. I am a big fan, have been appreciating all the hard work that the crew behind Mortal Kombat for basically my entire life. I hope one day I can be playing with my kid when I have one and you all continue changing the fighting game genre for years to come.

A beautiful looking masterpiece in a current bountiful age of gaming.
I have been excitedly keeping an eye on this. The comics, action figures, and hype are so nostalgic. The new mysteries are very intriguing.

Thank You for 20+ years of awesome times, and great memories!

I tweeted the link to this thread to Ed, Shaun, Tyler & Derek just over 14 hours ago and included the #thankyouNRS; here's the Tweet.

I'm hoping they see it and it helps take the sting off the negativity they've had to put up with recently. Kudos again to Detox for doing the thread and to all the other thankful people who commented, really brightened my view on the users here.

Sending hugs through the Internet to NRS. They really seem to be going above and beyond for this game. I cannot wait to play it! Thank you Boon and everyone at NRS.

Thank you guys so much for making one of the best video game series ever over the last 20 plus years, and here's to another 20 plus years of Mortal Kombat! You guys rock!

Thank you all so much for the countless hours you're devoting to making what looks to be another amazing game!

Might've blown your load a bit too soon there, m8 - 14 hours ago there was barely anything in this thread.

No worries, though. The stream starts in about 2 hours, and I think it'd be great if we tweet this at them anytime between now and then. Who knows - maybe we'll even get a shout-out live during the Kombat Kast. :3


ATTENTION

Shaun Himmerick, executive producer
Rigo Cortes, community manager
Tyler Lansdown, community manager
Derek Kirtzic, associate designer/producer


Let's not forget the guys who need no introductions:

And last but not least, the OGs OF KOMBAT, THE SULTANS OF SAVAGERY, THE CHI-CITY CHUGGERNAUTS, THE MASTAS OF DISASTA...

Ed Beezy and his nigga Johnny Tubbs!





Yeah, yeah, we all know Tobias doesn't work with the team anymore, but you know what? His spirit lives on in all of us.

Besides, I think it'd make him smile.
