Considering people actually played him in MK9, and previous MK games, i'd say he does have fans, myself included.

The fact that MKO is obsessed with male ninjas with similar plot importance to Kano's (such as Ermac) doesn't mean that he doesn't have fans.

From what people say, in the German GamePro magazine, Ed Boon said Sonya, Johnny and Liu Kang will also be in the game.

Also, calm down. Remember how you felt before Sonya was confirmed in MK9 and then how you felt afterwards. The feeling won't change this time.

Yeah, I remember the firs time I fought Kano online in MK9. This guy had the worst connection I've ever seen and he kept spamming Kano's knife throws over and over with a programmed controller. He never accepted anyone's challenges and this is how he got all his wins.

I hope MKX's netcode is generations better than MK9's or I'm not buying this shit.

Stop it! ;-P

I'm being serious.
Also, your sig won't show. It says the image is deleted.

posted this in the other thread, thought I'd stick it in here too so no one misses it

Okay, my German is rusty and I may have missed a few things but this is my rough guide to info from this article, thanks to Septillion for the link!

-Next gen power will really push the trademark brutality to new levels
-24 fighters in roster (18 plus the six we know about, not mentioning Raiden)
- Looks like Johnny and Sonya are major players in the story: story is described as 'about' them
-The silhouettes could be characters blacked out
-Sub Zero is not Bi Han: Noob is stressed to still be a separate character. However, its noted KL went Cyber. Seems likely to be a new Sub Zero. Will be answered in story mode
-The idea behind multiple variations is for different incarnations of characters: seems like it will be older-and-younger variations for some
-A lot of info about Cassie's styles, specials and fatality: nothing we dont know/havent seen
-Kotal Kahn is described as a mystical Mayan warrior.
-Kotal Kahn IS SHAO KAHN's SON. The exact translation, as far as I can make it, is 'Kotal Kahn...will prove to be Shao Kahn's son in the story mode'
-Stage fatalities confirmed, natural to MK
-Details on Kotal and D'Vorah's moves
-NRS want to 'seize the moment'
-Details on Raiden's moves
-EVO was a big deal for NRS, determined to be an EVO mainstay
-Ed Boon says: there will be different variations of Johnny Cage, Sonya Blade and Liu Kang. "Is Liu Kang in?" "But of course". So looks like those three are confirmed. "Liu Kang, while not confirmed, is certainly in". Possibility of a mistranslation, either from Boon to German or a flaw in my German but it sounds fairly cut and dry, those three are in and playable
-Boon refused to be drawn on any other characters.
-DLC further confirmed, guest character further confirmed.

So Cyber Sub-Zero could possibly still be a thing... That's AWESOME news!!! I hope he will be playable. ^^

Yeah, I can't remember how to get it working. Could you P.M me how to do it? Had to redo my whole account as I lost my passwords from a few years back. Doh!

Its possible, but its not the vibe I picked up. The translation would be "but who is the ice ninja this time? Not the older one, he is Noob Saibot, a totally different character. And yet, he cannot be the younger, that is Cyber Sub Zero. So who is he? That will be answered in the story mode"

I wouldn't count on it JR, sorry. Could be wrong though, German is my second/third language

I'm happy to hear that the story will be focusing on Johnny and Sonya. That is only logical after MK9's ending. I'm hoping to see Johnny really blossom and develop.

....

GOD FUCKING DAMNIT!

my reaction was something similar. Though they could mean 'heir' as in 'heir to Outworld' but they deliberately said Son, whereas 'heir' is usually Erbe

Well, that escalated quickly.






















Seriously though...guess we know now that Kahn isn't a title after all. I wonder who the hell ol' Shao knocked up!?

Uh-oh. I think the 'spoiler' wars are oncoming.

It just irks me because I was hoping that everything Shao Kahn would have ended in the last game. Oh well.

Well, if Kotal's skin is really blue (blue green?) I guess we can assume Kahn knocked up some random blue chick?

How about the green chick from Guardians of the Galaxy? Guest character potential?

Ditto. They REALLY need to take his Seido ending into consideration.

Pretty sure he has normal skin hidden beneath war paint. You can see peachy tones underneath his eyes, and the green paint looks cracked and uneven across his body.
Look under his eyes.

I was thinking more like Drax, but his looks remind me a bit of Kratos.

LMAO!

Ahh, well then, I was really hoping that Kahn did a blue chick... but oh well.

Maybe Kahn and Sindel did it during the behind the scenes? I wouldn't be surprised if Kotal is a legit seed from both Kahn and Sindel.

LOL, well the thing is MK9's story mode didn't really give the impression that they even had time for that. She was killed by Nightwolf. I don't see where she had the time to be pregnant and give birth.

Maybe Shao Kahn is the Captain Kirk of the MK universe.

But...Sindel exploded. Or did she? Everyone else cheats death once or twice in MK.

Looking closer, it does indeed look like Kotal is covered in paint and not actually green/blue.

... but seriously, what colour is it? I'm colourblind, I can't define it! In some instances he looks blue, in others green, and in some even turquoise...
