1. If they could find a way to limit people to 1 ID only that would be superb. It would get rid of the boosters etc... Technically there will always be ways around it but at the moment it is just too easy to open up 100s of IDs. Imagine a ranking system where everyone had just one ID and you could honestly work your way up. That would be true Kombat.

2. The PS2 version is rife with cheats from third parties. If it is technically possible then a way to eliminate the cheats must be found. Ban the third party add ons.

3. The game MUST have more options. At the moment, the system is flawed as people can wait for you to choose a character then use a character with a glitch etc. Imagine a system whereby you could turn off specials or weapons. And more importantly, imagine a system whereby when you challenge someone, you have to choose the character, options and arena FIRST then send the challenge which can then be accepted or declined.

4. A way to track wins and losses must be found to get rid of the losers who can't bear losing. Imagine if your profile detailed the last 100 games - who you played, the score, etc. That would get rid of all the lying and insulting in the rooms afterwards about who beat whom.

5. Tournaments. It is obvious that Midway don't care about the European server. We don't get tournaments and there are no options to set them up. Why? And why IS there a European server? In FIFA2005 there is just one world server and you can set up all the tournaments you like. Imagine how good that would be...

6. More stable server. At the moment, the quality ranges from poor to average and often one can't log on or it takes ages. This is not acceptable.

These are just a few ideas. There is a lot of work to be done for the next game.

1. I agree with you on limiting people with 1 ID. Its so lame people create clones accounts. They are lame enough to create accounts . 1 account and that should be it.

2. During my sort time playing on MK: D PS2 online I haven't encountered any cheaters. If cheat devices are discovered to be in use, the user should be banned for life for either PS3 and Xbox 2 online service.Still PS3's and Xbox 2's should have a online system samilar to Xbox Live were cheats are inpossible.

3. I would like a more in depth challage system. Meaning before any fighting begins there should be like a agreement of how many matches you would like to go against.Example of a person agrees to fight 7 matches and then disconnection on the 3rd one, the rest should count as losses.

4. I disagree with you on number 4. If a person can't stand lossing and quits he or she should be banned. That includes pullers. Pullers should lead to a instant bann when confirmed on PS3 or Xbox 2 online service. No BSing around.

5. There are no tournaments on MK Deception online here in the US version of the game. I would like to see them in MK7.

6. I agree with better servers. When I did play MK: Deception online the majority of the games that I have played where good( I always had a 4 start connection) in terms of non lagging, but there were some matches were I 100% side stepped the attack yet I still got hit. With Deception's already super slow fighting I was real mad that I can't do anything about that. I hope the fighting is faster in MK7 as well as the servers.Also if anything happens to your connection it should count as a lost

Better ranking system. I like the idea of a real ranking system so that novices fight novices and medium skilled fight meduim skilled and so on. I was looking around Splinter Cell CT forum yeterday and some person mentioned how SOCOM online ranking is the same as a stated above ( where I got the idea from). In short like SOCOM's online ranking.

Note I think all of the above should apply to both PS3 and Xbox 2 online services.

I disagree. I do pull against cheaters (health regen etc etc, I'm not talking about cheesers here). Is that "unfair"?

Here are some things that should happen-

1) The option to watch matches. Join matches in progress as an observer. That would mean there would have to be a way to see all matches taking place in the room you are in. This would be good for online set up tournaments and clan tryouts.

2) In depth challanges. I think there should be more options. You should be able to choose to have stage weapons, powers, number of matches, finishers, number of rounds, etc.

3) Hidden character pic. Make picking characters hidden for the other player to see or have a hidden button like in MK4. The best way to do it would be to have only the player picking see the charcter he or she is choosing, then before the match begins you see the charcters pose during loading like in MK2-3-TE-4 so on.

I am saying. MK7 will of course be online. Pretty sure that Xbox 2 will be just as good at reporting / banning(gamertag feedback) for its online service. When it comes to PS3 I hope it will have something similar to Xbox Live service. I haven't played Deception online for Xbox , but I can tell you there is no way those types of cheats on Live. When it comes to gamespy they don't have as a effective system. Lets say if PS3 online and Xbox Live one Xbox 2 have all the same stuff as Xbox Live now. All cheaters that you speak of would get reported by players ( gamer feedback), that would result in a ban. Again if it were up to me I would have the person say banned from the service. No need to pull, just report them and ban them. Just like Bungie banned those 100,000+ people for cheating in Halo 2 online. I hope those people don't get second chance.

personally i want to see "SYSTEM LINK" support in the next MK game so it can be played over such things as "XLINK KAI" ;) ... instead of being forced to use XBOX LIVE :(
