I'd say ok for Sektor and Smoke with black blood as they are cyborgs but Reptile with green blood? WTF, he had first red blood (MK, MK2) then green (UMK3, MKT) then red again (MK4, MKG), and now green again. (MKDA, MKA) Did he take special products?

Same for Noob Saibot? How comes he has black blood in MKA?

I could accept for MKD as he was associated with Smoke and it should have been a hard work to input black blood when hitting Smoke and red blood when fighting Noob Saibot as they taged very much.

Same for sheeva, in MK3, UMK3 and MKT , she had geen blood. But it seems this problem has been fixed.

In other words : I only find black blood for Sektor and Smoke OK. Maybe for Cyrax if he didn't become totally human again.

I would'nt want to see green blood again.

I like green blood. Also, I think Noob Saibot having black blood fits him... he is solid black.

I say yes to rainbows of blood, lol.

I'm against green blood. Why? Because it's super unrealistc. As far as I know....all creatures (not sure about insects), bleed red blood. Yes....even reptiles. Why they decided to make Reptile's blood green i have no fucking idea).

As for black blood...I really dont care. I would prefer not to see the cyborgs return in mk8 actually.

Well it depends. Will there be Zaterran and robotic kombatants? If there will, I'm for. If not, c'est la vie.

With the correct texture....Yea Im for it
I would also like "kick//punch dust" like in the old Kung Fu movies...


You should be able, once you discover the code for or unlock them, to turn them on and off.
others that could work:

1. Water/Sweat
2. Mud
3. Acid or Gel


Among a few others....BUT only if done correctly. Otherwise, I not for any of it.

Dude, a guy is sucking out peoples' souls and there's a fighting lizard-man in MK2. How on earth is that even close to realism? Realism, as far as I see, has never been a goal in the MK franchise. That's just a silly point to further your argument.

I wouldn't mind the "rainbow of blood" if they'd choose certain types for certain characters and keep it that way.

Mk might never have been TOTALLY realistic, but, the first 2 mk's were more realisitic than other MK's, in the sense that things werent corny and over the top. In the first 2 mks' there was a serious and dark tone which i thought was perfect for the series. However, this tone has diminished in recent mk games due to the goofiness that plagues the series.

Yeah, all earth creatures.

As far as we are all concerned, Sheeva is not from Earth, she is a monster from a different race, Shokan to be accurate, and for some reason, she bleeds green unlike her fellow Shokans in Mk1 and Mk2 who bleed red.

Same with Reptile, who isn’t exactly a lizard or reptile like the ones in our world, he is from a different realm.

Im all for green blood. It rocks. I was really disappointed to see the silly/stupid green blood turn red in fatalities and all, that sucks I admit, hopefully they fix that in the future, make Sheeva and Reptile bleed green again, and give black blood to the cyborgs who don’t really bleed but throw out oil or something like that.

The red/green/black bloods are cool imo.

Shokans should bleed green, same with Zaterreans, and the cybrogs, well, except for Cyrax, all should just bleed black (unless they have human parts inside of them).

I suppose they wanted the green blood to be seen as acidic. Maybe if green blood returns it should appear to dissolve into the stage. Also they should make it darker. Almost British Racing Green dark.

From Wikipedia:
The blood of horseshoe crabs is blue, which is a result of its high content in copper-based hemocyanin instead of the iron-based haemoglobin found, for example, in humans.

Interesting Stuff. I wanted my created fighter to have blue blood. sad

I don't actually mind though what colour blood Reptile etc. have though.

I'm for it. It adds diversity.

As long they continue to keep the green and black blood limited to a minority of characters, I support it and like it.

im for the colors aswell....also,ive heard this a few times and thought of it myself...blood effects like lava,water,mud,acid,mercury,oil an so on...elemental blood basically...along with steam,flames,smoke and other effects.
like said before...it has to match to the character and make some sence.

I don't mind but as long as they don';t switch blood types around. Chameleon and Reptile can keep the green while the robots kepp the black oil. Cyrax alt would need red. I'm not sure about Noob and Sheeva. Both Goro and Kintaro have red so why does Sheeva have green?

Stick to red blood it's the only color that makes any sense. It also eliminates the annoying red blood mixed in with green or black blood during fatalities. Make it simple, stick to red.

Actually there are certain crayfish and yes reptiles who bleed a form of aqua blue. (not trying to burst your bubble)

As far as the blood colour variations, imo its great mk has never been uber realistic and it would lose alot if it were to think it was.
