If we do in fact get to fight them, I have strong feeling hackers will hack that shit to make them playable lol.

I think they will more than likely just be Cameos Motaro style.

It does seem strange that we see Cassie fighting Sindel in Story mode but not let us do it in game...

I think it would be pretty cool to fight characters that don't make it into the roster, simply because they're not in the roster in the first place, so they should make SOME kind of appearance.

I think it's extremely likely there will be fights with NPC in story mode, and probably a lot of them. It's the difference between a handful of fights and creating a full blown three-variation/personality/fatalities thing. I'm cool with that. It's the best of both worlds as far as I can see, at least some less notable characters are still getting attention if they can't fit on the roster.

From what Rigo Cortes said, doesn't sound like it.

I imagine that'd kind of be a waste of resources that could be spent working on actually playable characters.

The main thing I hated about MK9's story mode was how you would fight the same characters again and again with no mix ups, even getting to the point where it was hero vs hero in a pointless match up. That's why fighting NPCs is a great idea. Say you are playing Mileena's chapter and you fight Kotal, Reptile, D'Vorah then Cassie. Then you move on to Reptile's chapter where you fight Kung Jin, Cassie, Takeda and then Mileena. You're just fighting the same characters over and over again with no mix up. But, add in NPCs you can fight and things get a lot more interesting. Instead of Cassie fighting several playable characters that we've seen and fought against a dozen times, she can fight against Rain, Sindel, Jade and Stryker before moving on to Jacqui where you fight a mixture of PCs and NPCs mixing things up massively. I hope this is a feature in the game.

That tweet means dick. We can't play as them but there's no reason we can't fight against them. And as for a waste of resources, all the effort put into, for example, Smoke as a fight able NPCS could make the job into making him a DLC PC even easier. There's no reason why it can't be done.

..and I am asking who confirmed that Queen Sindel ,Rain and Shinnok the Elder God are NPC and plus how can you fight with a NPC,they should have a gameplay too and it makes them PLAYABLE ...that's it !!!
