Its just stupid guest after stupid guest nowadays.

I keep complaining because it keeps being shitty. Just because I'm not putting money towards it doesn't mean I'm going to let it go.

And they can fuck off if they expect us to pay for The Pit if it comes with this.

Make no mistake I WANT to give NRS my money (I even put up with the netcode) but they're just not letting me.


You not giving them money can start showing Netherrealm that people are unhappy over those who are endlessly attacking all of the developers' Twitter accounts.

I mean, if you are 100% unsatisfied and will continue refusing to buy their products, then do what you say and don't give them money. Them not getting the sales will show that they were in the wrong. I'm sure a few of the complaints made to them got to them and made them realize that this move was a risk that wasn't well-liked. But when you actually do take action and refuse to give them money is when they start getting the fucking answer.

So like I said, if you're that unhappy with their move, then don't bother getting their products anymore. Let them know you're pissed. And I am not being sarcastic with this if you think I am.


Good they deserve the criticism. Not threats of course but outright hatred?
Yeah they deserve to know just how badly this goes over.

I dont think you understand. If thats their pack if thats what they thought we would be happy with I'm NOT giving them my money. Why should I? Why should I have any faith in them at that point?

However complaining to them in addition to speaking with the wallet is my preferred method. You are implying I shouldn't speak my mind at all because it's too negative and I'm not buying it anyway so who cares Shhhhh

And the problem with that is that it shuts out the argument against this entirely. And look what we have now, not just 2 guest characters in MKX but 4.

I never once tried to make people not state their mind. Overdoing it, yeah cuz' it gets annoying after a while (I mean for Christ's sake, I'm doing it so we're all guilty here). I would think that them not getting the sales would hurt them more than people voicing the same thing that's been said at least well over a hundred times now.

Like, I get that writing a bunch of complaints to said company will get them to respond back. I was more so saying that if you really want to hurt them, don't give them the money. You're entitled to speak your mind, I believe majority of you lives in a country where you're capable of doing so. However, I see it where if you really want to show them you're not interested whatsoever just don't give them the money.

But if you feel that voicing over and over again is your method of showing them you're pissed, I guess do it. I would just think that it would most likely get shunned by the dozens of other complaints but go for it if you want to voice your feelings.

Is not just that we got 2 guests, ok, they overdid it to get to the casuals, but then you don't give us Fujin... AGAIN. Such a fucking slap in the face for the core MK fans. I'm not buying this.

Tri-borg. Good idea. Wish it had a better name. Already feels like it's not a character on it's own: It's just a way to satisfy Cyrax & Sektor fans. Best case scenario, he actually has a story. And hopefully his story is consistent and the third variation is Cyber-Sub-Zero: That makes more sense synthesizing Cryomancer powers than Enenra powers if Smoke was never cyberized.

Tarkatan Xenomorph. Good idea. I was hoping for Xenomorph + Rain + Sindel + Baraka for KP2 and this is 2 out of the four. More or less.

Leatherface. I'm not paying for a Kombat Pack if one of the characters is just a promotion for a shit movie coming out next year.

Bo Rai Cho. A character less popular than Fujin. Wooo.

Soooo if they had used a different guest character, this Ash fella, it would be different? A different guest character could have made people happier if I'm reading this correctly? (I'm probably not but.)

I'm confused here. Would Ash from Evil Dead change many minds here that are truly upset at this? Because he's a guest, and most of the complaints I see are "why more guests?"

Unless this is just more so of a "your" thing and not the majority here. Then pardon this post.


There'd definitely still be people angry that he's a guest no question. But Ash had quite a few requests (unlike Leatherface) and he is just a much better fit for MK. He's got ties to the supernatural, has the corny MK type humor, over the top violence, and the variation system suits him very well.

I think most people would agree that Ash would be a better guest than Leatherface, but this is just my opinion.

Actually we can't make a difference with our wallet because of the casual crowd and the fgc who have to buy it. Basically the fans don't matter any more in the numbers game however we are the noisiest and noise is what got them to stop dressing its females like strippers. Will it stop this piece of shit pack from getting made? I heavily doubt it. But it does affect their plans for future content if possible (doubt it) and/or future games.

Complaints are necessary in this day and age.

You're annoyed? Well so am I but for different reasons.

I'm not really big into horror movies so all these horror characters aren't really my cup of tea but I do own both Jason and Predator. So I don't know too much about Ash other than he's from Evil Dead, he wields a chainsaw and the actor that played him is also Autolycus from Xena: Warrior Princess.

So, if others happen to agree with you, I wouldn't mind seeing what this chainsaw guy can do.

Good night Mortal Kombat Online. I feel that there's more to this reveal tomorrow, we shall see for ourselves.

This whole shitstorm just solidifies the fact that I think there should be some sort of fan voting scenario in the lead-up to DLC like what they did for Injustice.

Simply put, because this bullshit IS an injustice.

I might actually buy this game since they're putting in three of my favorite fighters (Sektor, Cyrax, and Smoke). I would've preferred them to be separate, but whatever.

Add me to the list of massively disappointed fans.

Two guest characters, who admittedly I'm a big fan of in their own context, are taking the place of many Mortal Kombat characters far more deserving of a spot in this game.

Bo' Rai Cho is not one of those characters. Terrible choice in general. Fuck him.

Triborg... gimped version of the cyborgs. Awful. I'd much rather have a fully fleshed out Cyrax or Sektor than this.

So... I'm the only one who is happy? Ok, i don't need Leatherface. But an Alien version, Bo Rai Cho and finally Sektor!!! as a Triborg are more than enough reasons for me to buy the pack. I'm a little bit disappointed about Fujin... Would fit way better than Leatherface. Fujin, Bo Rai Cho (or maybe a feminin fighter), Sektor/Cyrax/Smoke and Alien... this would be a perfect pack.

Hahahahaha the salt in this thread is greater than all the oceans. This is borderline MK vs DC when 90% were swearing off MK for life. Yet here you all are all these years later. You'll get over it when the next MK game comes out and you're all hyped up again.

The only thing I really hope is that when you choose Tri-Borg, the announcer calls him by his variation name, i.e. Sektor, Cyrax, Cyber-Smoke. Doubtful though.

There won't be. I love these excuses by the way. Absolutely full of shit. What the fuck do they actually listen to when it comes to fan feedback? Cause apparently its just random 13 year olds or casuals who want a ton of shitty guests on fucking Twitter. Clearly they don't follow their own trending topics as all the forums I've been to, all the hundreds if not thousands of tweets I've seen tonight, majority are overly fucking negative.

@mortalkombating @Tonyformer a)not solely an NRS decision, b)might agree if it were 4 guests, but wouldna39;t a tru fan b glad re: Bo/Triborg?

— Brian Chard (@bcharred) December 4, 2015

Funny thing is, there ARE 4 guests Mr. Chard. 4. Pointless. Guests. So that at least confirms that. WB had a fucking say in this bullshit as well. Doesn't surprise me in the least, look how badly they handled Arkham Knight this year.

I'll probably get the next MK, but I'll never be hype for this series again. Not unless I see some Fujin or Li Mei in a starting roster.

Except some of us are down right serious. I was one of the most vocal when that MKvDC announcement came and I have still not bought that piece of shit. I've still never even played Injustice either. Why? Because I want Mortal Kombat. Not Mortal Kombat V Terrordrome. So if that's honestly the case for now and into the future, I'm done buying their DLC no matter who's in it.

I can't spend money on this. So disappointed. I was hoping for no guests. I thought the guest thing was over since most casuals likely moved on and yes, guests are more likely to be geared toward casuals than core players since it's a fairly obvious notion that fans of a game series want THAT series' content when they play that series.

To me, that's just common sense.

But still, I would've been okay with one guest, even if it's a guest that's metaphorically absorbing my favorite character, who basically existed in MKX to get shat on and unceremoniously destroyed by D'Vorah, but sure, keep it going,

But two? And freaking Leatherface? You're going to choose this over the bevy of common and rare, classic and newer characters from your own series, for what? To make a little more cash? MKX didn't make enough already, you need to pull this?

Yeah, I do hope that NRS gets the message from fans loud and clear that the people who both buy on day one and actually stick with MK games long after they're released are the people they're largely thumbing their noses at with this shit.

So sure, vote with wallets, no doubt, but responsibly communicate that this is not what d lot of fans want. This isn't just normal fan complaining and "you can't please everyone" type of stuff. To me, it's different, and I hope NRS can be made to see that without anyone threatening them or any garbage like that.

YO FUJIN HAVIK KAI AND SAREENA ARE IN THIS GAME?! OH THEY'RE NOT?
Cameos in story only? But what about the new characters from MKX? More story cameos you say? Never going to be playable?

Wait people still play this game? I stopped playing day one after I realized there was still input lag in modern days TV's and switching to "game mode" doesn't make even remotely close to a difference. You have to buy a specific type of "gaming monitor" in order to play without input lag & on top of the fact that the netcode for this game is utter shit. I just put it on the shelf to collect dust, I even bought the special 100 dollar edition from Gamestop that came with KP1, yeah I sold it back to Gamestop for 20 bucks about a week ago LOL


Yeah i'm an OG MK fan since 90 (Year i was born), I still don't quite understand how this fanbase has turned into entitled whiny ass fuckboys. "Ohh i'm an original fan, get your shitty guest out of my nostalgia WAH WAH WAH" jeebus christ call the fucking WAHMBULANCE, just be happy you're getting anything MK related at all this is a franchise that would no longer exist if it wasn't for NRS "selling out" to WB like you fucking retards don't realize at the end of the day it's a business? Are you honestly suprised in this day and age of with the prominence of DLC that NRS is chasing casual money?

HELLLLLOOOOOOO most of us hardcore MK fans are now full grown 25+ year old adults going to school & work full time you honestly think that's the small dying fanbase they should cater too? That's when sales would really tank they'd be alienating nearly all of new generation fans. KI has guests aswell they do just fine.

Please take you bleeding rectums elsewhere, the saltiness is beyond profound with you fools.

You guys remember when ProfAnkha went of a rampage about the treatment of his purple puppet in the MK comics? Yeah i'll never let him live that down LOL

Just watch that roster get smaller and smaller with each new game while the guest characters keep piling up.

Until the next MK is like vs DC.

10 MK characters and 10 guests.
WTF? Nobody saw Leatherface commin', that was outta nowhere. There were so many other guesses, Ash, Pinhead, Pyramid head, Alie... oh right.

A pointier Baraka, with Reptile's acid spit?

So the forum was right on 3 counts, combined cyborg, 2 guests, and Bo'Rai Cho...


Maybe they'll do a KP3... ? Guys... guys?!

The Rain is falling...

That's not even really true. He's in the story for like 5 minutes and disappears for no reason. I think Li Mei got more screen time and she wasn't even fighting!

I love Mortal Kombat but it's just a video game. It's not worth the aneurysm you're giving yourself.
