I am here to state my opinion and discuss it with other people.

Some share my opinion others don't, but there is certainly no need for name calling.

we are all MK Fans and we want to see MK do great.

"Brutalities" Certainly don't take away from the game and it doesn't make MKX bad.

They just don't appeal to me.

I remember that thread!

I can see your point about Fatalities being more brutal than the Brutalities, but they are going to put the most cinematic and complex finishers as Fatalities. So by that logic, Brutalities should never exist because Fatalities are always going to be more brutal. The new Brutalities are much more interesting, unique, and brutal than anything MK has added since the Fatalities, in my opinion.

I agree with you A LOT actually.

They are unique and fun, I could see it working in EVO.

Also I can see it catching people off guard for an awesome reaction.

But Brutalities should have involved X-Ray and more Punches.

Just smash the opponents face in with 20 hits. rip arms and hit them with their ripped arms.

I don't want it to be like the UMK3 days but I don't also want Brutalities to be short fatalities.

Remember the MK9 Trailer, where Scorpion got on top of Subby and just smashed his face in?

That's exactly what I thought would have happen with brutalities.

but with X-Ray moves and just make them well.. More Brutal.

Isn't that the point?

They are quick fire fatalities for tournament play simple as that.

*sigh*

Blame the nostalgia goggles.

I have to STOP wearing them :(.

Since MK4...

Jax's ending

... Fatality >>> Brutality

That's what I was thinking! They seem quite old skool without all the buildup and being overly cinematic. I think I might actually prefer them to the fatalities. Quick, brutal and sometimes hilarious.

I'm kinda glad it's not just a generic string combo with an explosion at the end.

Suck on that!

For fucks sake, we're getting over 100 Brutalities that look incredibly amazing and people are still complaining. Ugh

I just don't think it should be called, "Brutality" especially when it just looks like an alternative version of Rage from MK vs. DC. I knew it was too good to be true for them to recreate a multi-combo sequence and thus the opponent explodes. I would've just left this new version of Brutality, out.

Question is what will trigger them no blocking,style selection,certain amount of meter,holding a button down,flawless victory?

I agree with you

Because they're basically watered-down fatalities.

LMAO! You took the words from my mouth.

It's exactly what I was going to say.

That's why they are able to do more than 100, because they are watered-down shitty versions of fatalities.

It's not that they couldn't, I'm sure if they wanted to make those retarded Brutalities from Trilogy they could've. But they took a new approach to Brutalities and made them unique.

I applaud them for it.

WAIT.

Someone called Liu Kangs MK1 fatality silly?

Yeah I saw somebody call Liu Kang's MK1 Fatality silly.

LOL, they know nothing!

I know what you mean Cyborg. I really dig them too.

U mean like classic Fatalities.

Also:



Yep, u said it. Fatality >>> Brutality.

I don't understand the whinning...

No offense bro. Not everyone is gonna sugar coat shit. If we don't like it we don't. It's our right to bandwagon and or not be happy. Just because it's mk and we love it. Don't mean everything NRS shits out is gonna be amazing. I loved Brutalities because of the multiple slugfest you had before the finale. This shit is lackluster. I got nothing against you personally but I refuse to kiss nrs ass if what I see I don't like. It's mine and others opinions and if we don't like a product or something that's affiliated gimmick wise to sell the product by all means speak up!

Oh but your ranting won't help this or change that. Stop it now! Excuse me? I been almost nothing but supportive of this franchise. I been on mko 11 years now. Very seldom have I complained. But as I'm getting older I realize how much shit that this series had that I loved that has either been re-written or written off completely. It's bullshit and yes I am speaking logically right now. I just can't believe you think these are brutalities. I would of rather had the input combo to lead to it. What I seen looked like input fatalities. These are not brutalities not by a long shot. Argue as you will but it's not as amusing as the originals.

Another thing I will say. Is this is a mk dedicated forum where we share opinions, faqs, knowledge, passion, love and hate. Stop criticizing people here because we don't kiss ass. And follow the pact. If I love something about mk ill make it known, support it if I think it demands it. If I don't ill speak my mind. Deal with it.

The roster for MKX outside Goro, Ermac and Kano suck. I didn't want to see any of the ones who died in mk9s story back. Idc if you gave them CPR eff that.

MKX could of focused elsewhere and what we got was transfer paper characters with Variations. Oh yay. Cuz I haven't seen an op kung lao enough last game. Give me a break bro.

If you hate me after this post so be it. I'm speaking up as an 11 year veteran of this site and supporting Midway thru NRS I'm so far disappointed in the roster and these fake az Brutalities.

/Rant

Amen.

Well....shit just escalated.

I personally love them! I always felt that the brutalities from MKT were very overrated. They all looked the same and all ended with 4 skulls, 2 rib cages etc. Yet another reason why I can't wait for the game. Scorpions spear brutality looks awesome :)
