As Mr. Sloan always says, there is no "I" in team, but there is an "I" in pie. And there's an "I" in meat pie. Anagram of meat is team... I don't know what he's talking about.

Is it bad that I'm really only happy Tanya is out so now we are closer to the 2 characters I'm actually interested in? Ever since they announced the pack, Predator and Tremor were the ones I wanted to most.

99.999999999% certain they knew who was going to be DLC. Whether they said that or not, they don't just wake up and decide these things.

Hell, I don't even believe that the DLC is not (almost completely) done.

The designers knew before the game was released, sure. The story mode was scripted long before the game got to that stage, though, and Tanya et al were written as NPCs. I mean, note Tremor and Goro don't even appear in the story, presumably because they decided to add them later on.

I absolutely believe the DLC wasn't very far along apart from Jason (and Goro, obviously). The models keep changing and Tanya in Story Mode didn't have a single unique move.

I'm in the same boat. I want Tanya out of the way so we can get to the good stuff.

Dear Sweet baby Jesus, now I'm really starting to doubt we'll get any more DLC character beyond these four.

If that's the case, was TWO guests really necessary? Damn. I'd swap out Tremor and Predator for Li Mei and Fujin in a heartbeat. And Jason for Rain.


Amen, though I'd prefer Reiko over Li Mei; either would be superior than the guest fighters. Imo, Reiko should have taken Goro's spot. There is just no reason for Goro to be in this game.



Here's how it should've been.

Kombat Pack-

Fujin
Tanya
Li Mei
Baraka

Pre-Order exclusive- Rain (He's essentially free and fans wouldn't have to pay for him again unless of course they didn't pre-order. Also, he's a ninja, ninjas sell. I wouldn't be surprised if he would've sold more than Goro's big random ass.)

Kombat Pack 2(Spring 2016)

Sareena
Frost
Bo'Rai'Cho
Reiko

Perfect.





This. Is literally perfection.


Glad someone agrees! And maybe for a cool Halloween DLC they could've released a DLC bundle of Jason/Predator. Tremor could've been some free download for the Holidays.

I had a dream last night that I was watching the Tanya reveal stream and she had an alt costume that looked like Pam Grier's suit in Jackie Brown.

I'm having dreams about MKX now.

That just shows how bad they fucked up on DLC for this game. Half way in and people already stop caring. Dang.

Yeah, after Tanya i'm gonna be pretty bored when it comes to DLC. In all honesty I just want the DLC to be over so they can announce if there will be more after the kombat pack or if they're calling it quits. Hopefully they actually announce something instead of going off the radar and not answering anything like Injustice but i'm not holding my breath. I just want to know if Fujin is gonna be in or not, it's just torture at this point because I have a thin strand of hope that he'll be announced after the KP, again like Injustice. Just knowing that theres a small chance he could still be playable but theres also a huge chance that he wont be is killing me, I just want answers and NRS wont provide them.

Oh well, thats NRS for ya

Tanya is okay, I guess, but she seems very similar to Harley in Injustice, and I don't know what to feel about it.

My hopes for Predator are very high.

I still have no words to describe how much I despise Tremor.

Waiting for the >>> DLC ARENAS <<< announcement...

Perhaps, but I'm just getting tired of seeing complaints left and right around these parts. I remember when being an MK fan 20 years ago was fun. Now I feel like many are becoming privileged and self-important, and virtually everything about Tanya's appearance has been bringing out the worst. Apologies for any offenses, but I guess this old fart (well, 29 seems old these days) is just getting jaded by the MK fandom these days. I'm still playing virtually everyday, but the joy of coming onto MK forums is fading. [/rant]


Yep. All of this.

This place just seems to suck out all enthusiasm and joy from being an MK fan.

Is it just me or do I envision Tanya fitting in Game of Thrones as a political manipulator? Hell she could pull off MK's version of Red Wedding as a female version of Walter Frey while Reiko/Noob Saibot can fit Roose Bolton, killing most of the good guys again XD That would be hilarious.

Is anyone else disappointed by Tanya's storyline in this game? With her bio they seemed to be setting her up for something interesting, but with Mileena dead, Tanya seems pointless storyline-wise.

No her story seems interesting. Her and Rain want to take Edenia for themselves.

Some of Tanya's moves. I don't think Kombos or Specials were shown in the stream.

Looks like there is a typo in this build. Edenian Drill is a special move. Her second fatality is called the "Human Slide".

In the game, it says that tanya is coming soon, but available now if you have a kombat pack. So is she really playable right now for kombat pass as we speak? Someone clarify for me please.

You can play as Tanya NOW, but unfortunately only for Xbox One.

And sadly, she hasn't been changed in story mode. That is ridiculous and actually quite stupid on their part. Also no alt, P2 color scheme is a pretty much goldish and brown.

Tanya is awesome I just unlocked Hotshot Johnny Cage by getting 10 strait wins with her.

I can't pull off her Edenian Drill Fatality is anyone else having this problem? I just back dash :(

Her Brutalities are great and easy to pull off!

Her Ending sucks if your a fan of a certain character

Spoilers: (Highlight to reveal)
She snitches on Rain and Kotal Kahn burns him alive
EDIT: just enter her Fatality really slow

Such a hot mess of an ending that's it's hard to ignore. Gee, betrayal AGAIN; continuing to milk that one dimension of hers. It's also probably a poke at his torching in the comics (and so satisfying, natch), but still, given how he could teleport away in the story mode, why couldn't he put out the damn fire??
Plus, she wishes she were worthy enough to be down with Kotal's posse.
