At the tournament where I went, the last round 5 rounds was scrop vs scrop. Using the same g-damned teleport attack. It was really really lame.
Mortal Kombat 9

Yea, during my 11 matches I faced Scorpion about 5 times.

Just letting you guys know…
KingofSarus' Kitana?
Fear her.
Just like you fear his Chun-Li.

PFF! Like I didn't already know that you were going from using a magnum revolver in a knife fight…...to a magnum handgun in a knife fight.
Doesn't help that I'm started from the ground up to learn this game.

Scorpion, the true Ken of Mortal Kombat.

From what I'm hearing, pretty much.
Which is awful, because Scorpion is my biggest weakness in the demo.

Don't worry, people just spam the teleport then the ground flame when you start blocking. Oh, and they also duck then uppercut when you jump in. Very easy to beat.
My Liu Kang is starting to come around nicely. I couldn't really test him online though since the people I fought sucked/were spammers/rage quit.
-
Its a damn shame really.
I liked him and now I can't play him in good conscience. Oh well, I've still got Kung Lao and Kabal

Kung Lao is a fucking monster.

Meh. Use Scorpion. Nothing wrong with Scorpion, there are just too many people who like him.
None of us will really judge you. Not like you're using Sentinel as your third member and waiting for that X-Factor like everyone else. You might play Scorpion different than the majority.

Episode 2.
-Sonya and Jax were pretty kick ass in this episode. The action was far better this time around.
-I swear, Stryker comes off as such a nice guy in this episode, that I just know he's either fodder or a villain.
-These episodes are way too damn short to warrant a weekly series. -

Well not to brag, I do try to mix it up as best I can, I've gotten as high as a 9-hitter juggle in the demo, ending with his X-Ray.
Everyone else at that stupid tournament just kept mashing his 3-hitter and got results :getlost: Didn't even end with his fatality…
Made me glad that the final round was between a Johnny and Sub-Zero.

I'd rather be killed with a 9-hitter than stupid tactics used by everyone.
Be proud. Use Scorpion. This game barely has a true concept of 'shoto' anyway.
-
You've inspired me Insider…
From this day forth, I will be known as the man who plays Scorpion the right way!
-
Hey, of all the characters in this game/series I choose to main and be a huge fan of, it's been Stryker since the beginning (UMK3 was my first MK). I feel no shame!
Be proud of your mains and fandoms.
Except Sentinel. -
Sentinel died for our sins.
-
-
Sounds like I need to pick this one up…
Everything I hear about this game is good.
Save for some presentation issues.
-
Despite it being a little difficult to do Xray moves on, I'm loving the tournament stick.
-
I'm having server issue and can't even connect to the online servers. I really hope they patch this soon cause this is so frustrating and really want to play everyone : <

Toshi.
Netherrealm Studios has been working on the netcode since Day 1. DAY 1.
Your connection is black ass, bro.
-
Just watched the first movie again (first time in more than 15 years).
Although it is a little campy, that movie is still really cool. Best video game movie, IMO.
What the fuck are you talking about this time?
I think it's a joke reference to IGN's review of the game.
-
I gotta say.
I'd hate to be NRS when they're working on the sequel.
-
Well I guess there still working on it since I was able to play ssf4 with no problem at all. Also found out I'm not the only one.
-
I just saw Mileena's alt "costume"
O__O

-Sonya and Jax were pretty kick ass in this episode. The action was far better this time around.
-I swear, Stryker comes off as such a nice guy in this episode, that I just know he's either fodder or a villain.
-These episodes are way too damn short to warrant a weekly series.I'm really liking this re-imagining of the MK universe, as something more "real", without different dimensions and all that (or at least, that's what I got from these first episodes).
Of course the action was good: That's Michael Jay White vs Darren Shahlavi. Both these guys are martial arts aces, too bad Darren didn't show all he's capable of. I swear that eye-popping punch caught me TOTALLY off-guard. It was beautifully brutal.
And I like the production values a lot. They're doing a good job so far.Sorry, it was a little off-topic.
On-topic; I'm SO getting this game. It looks impressive, with absurd ammounts of unlockable material (something I love), with a good story mode (something I love even more), and it looks really fun to play.

Also, when I saw that shot and it stay on the screen for a little while I whispered "Fatality".

Man I love this game soooo fucking much! I'm currently running though story mode (which at times is no joke), but i'm very glad for the difficulty since it forces me to actually LEARN how to play the damn game (rather than mashing buttons and spamming moves). Yup, just like Insider, I really have no background with this series (aside from some casual playing as a kid. But I hardly spent much time focusing on that when my friends were running around outside). It also feels nice earning koins and unlocking shit.
Oh and story Raiden is such a fucking TOOOOOOOOOOOL! The guy just makes excuses and never really owns up to his fuck ups. The thunder god has officially TROLLED this fucking series.
SERIOUSLY… everytime he shows up I just roll my damn eyes."THE AMULET HASN'T CHANGED!"
ASS!
It's obvious the people who spent time making this game really love what they do. The design is just FUCKING SPOT ON!
Blue ninjas who freeze niggas are still fucking cool.
N word.... I humbly request you train me the ways of Mortal Kombat. bows
-
Haha! Who do you use? I'll help you out.
-
Right now I find that Kung Lao flows well with me. I also really like Smoke too.
Anyone really.
Plus I aint gamed with you in a while N word. Miss you and sheet (no homo).
Gotta work, but i'll try to be on later. Damn job.

I hear yeah. Just playing the demo, I feel very awkward. It's taken me forever to get used to block using R2 instead of 'Back'. My BIL has certainly taken advantage of that. "Hey, you want to know the secret to this game? Block is R2." Ass.
Oh and story Raiden is such a fucking TOOOOOOOOOOOL! The guy just makes excuses and never really owns up to his fuck ups. The thunder god has officially TROLLED this fucking series.
SERIOUSLY… everytime he shows up I just roll my damn eyes."THE AMULET HASN'T CHANGED!"
ASS!
OH MY GOD! He needs to die a thousand deaths!
spoiler
! I'm probably never going to see Stryker again cause of him.
! No…I need to stay optimistic. Stryker has gained popularity in this game, and the next game could very well be the cast saving the heroes from Quan Chi and/or Quan Chi using the heroes as henchmen.
! Either way, what a fucking tool! Trading Earthrealm's warrior's souls (it's not like they died for your fuck up or anything!)! ACCIDENTALLY KILLING LIU KANG! My God! HOW WAS THAT AN ACCIDENT! He turned the fucker into a roast turkey! "LIU KANG! NO! Whoops, I sent the lightning to kill..." The woman from Chicago who said her husband 'fell into her knife...ten times' sounds more plausible of an accident! Jesus Christ!
! Shinnok, if you kill Raiden next game, you have my love. I'll forgive you for somewhat killing Sareena and being a boring villain.N word…. I humbly request you train me the ways of Mortal Kombat. bows
I might have to agree.
No matter what, I want to main Stryker.
-
My Ermac has become unstoapple…till some blocks lol but I'm really liking Ermac since his moves remind me of Vader in SC4 lol
Practecing also with Smoke, Jade(MK3 outfit) and Sindel. Might use Noob Saibot as well.
Highest damage I did was with Ermac doing 47% with x ray
-
Right now I find that Kung Lao flows well with me. I also really like Smoke too.
I must admit… I'm not a huge fan of Smoke (as of now) but damn, spamming his Teleport Punch against my cousin's spamming Smoke was straight up pure fucking fun.
It was some Dragonball Z type of shit. Camera could barely keep up. lol
I dunno. I'll check him out to see if he's legit or not.
Now about Kung Lao, I don't even have to say anything. He's Top-tier in this game. Real talk.Plus I aint gamed with you in a while N word. Miss you and sheet (no homo).
Haha! True, true.
Gotta work, but i'll try to be on later. Damn job.
I don't even got my own copy yet. lol
I'll have it by then though.
I might have to agree.
No matter what, I want to main Stryker.
Only because you got rid of that shitty avatar(s) and actually have a Mortal Kombat avatar, I'll help you as well.
Highest damage I did was with Ermac doing 47% with x ray
Try 50%+ Damage without X-Ray with Kitana.
-
Kitana is for noobs bro lol
I'll give her a try later.
-
Kitana is for noobs bro lol
Oh? Is that what's up, nigga?! Real nigga shit?!
I'll give her a try later.
Oh no, please don't. Don't be a fucking noob, Toshi.
You're way more better than that.
-
I keep fight Scorpions online, it's starting to get on my nerves. I have no experience with Scorp outside of story mode (didn't even touch him in the demo) and general fucking around with everyone. Last Scorp I faced did the same shit- spam teleport into uppercut. But what REALLY pissed me off was he beat my Liu Kang on the first match by literally mashing the square button. We played about 6 more matches after that and he played with other teleport bastards (Noob, Cyrax, Raiden, etc….) and spammed them. I won every one of those matches and eventually he had to go back to Scorpion and, being the asshole I am, I picked Scorpion as well. One Flawless victory and a 9 hit into x-ray later he quits.
Scorpion is a really good character but people refuse to learn how to play with him.
Oh, I also faced a Raiden that did nothing, and I mean NOTHING, other then teleport and uppercut.
Edit: I'm leaving for Anime Boston tonight so if anyone wants to play me this is your last chance until sometime Monday.
Edit 2: @Nerdreactor:
Well this is interesting. Apparently there is a rumor going around that Horror icons, Freddy Krueger and Jason Voorhees, may find themselves duking it out in the realms of Mortal Kombat.
It has been reported, that the DLC might be available as early as this Halloween. As odd as it seems, it actually does make sense. Warner Bros. is the parent company of New Line Entertainment, who owns the property rights to both the Nightmare on Elm Street series and Friday the 13th movies. Which would play a big part in getting those characters into the game. Also, lets not forget that Warner Bros. was also key factor in getting Mortal Kombat to take on the Superheros of the DC Universe.
I think it is safe to say that there is a good chance that this might actually happen and honestly, who’s to say the Freddy and Jason wouldn’t be right at home amongst the blood and violence of Mortal Kombat.
I wonder what that would look like……. -
Freddy vs. Jason vs. Mortal Kombat vs. The Animaniacs
-
Game of the Year.

- unintelligible giggles, laughs, and cries*
They're still doing the trailers!!!

Marvel vs. Mortal Kombat
-
I thought the only MK crossover you wanted was Mortal Kombat vs Mortal Kombat.
Also, you sure you want that after what happened with MK vs DCU.
OH! Forgive my nerdiness, but if Capcom and Marvel are together and MK and DC are together.
MK vs Capcom vs Marvel vs DC
Nah. That'd be stupid. It'd turn out worse than MvC3.

Most likely.

I was inspired to do this because every time I make a facebook status about the new MK game, someone replies telling me Portal is better.
-
Lol.. but Portal is an unfair comparison to ANY game really.
-
I love how, no matter what, every game needs to be compared to every game.
I don't justify my lack of interest of Grand Theft Auto with "Well, Chrono Cross is better!" Fuck no! Whether that's true or not, my reasons for not liking GTA is because the gameplay style bores me after an hour.
The GameFAQs MK boards are flooded with "MK isn't a real fighter, like MvC3/SSF4". Jesus…
--- Update From New Post Merge ---
Lol.. but Portal is an unfair comparison to ANY game really.
I will say that that is sad but true. Very few games that compare to it nowadays.
And there are very few games with Cave Johnson or JK Simmons being awesome.
-
MK9 is a LEGIT fighter from the small time I've had with it.
Compared to ANY MK that is…
-
GameFAQs posters always be trippin'!
I can't wait to get this game, master Stryker, and beat my BIL REPEATEDLY with him. I don't need to outmatch Sarus (never will). I just need to outmatch him.
EDIT: Dammit! Why must MortalKombatOnline.com be down NOW of all days.
-
So… I finally got my copy of the game and I've been playing through Story Mode and played online a bit with Tonfa (which I apologize for leaving so quickly after two fights -_-;) and I have to say, this is seriously motherfucking bad-fucking-ass.
Johnny Cage? I hated the guy, always did as a child. I found that Ryota Niitsuma (MKII version) looking ass nigga completely lame. Nearly raged when he was very first character to use in Story Mode. The dude was cracking some funny lines and I actually used him for once (yes, I ignored his ass in the demo) I started freaking loving the guy. Afterwards, he got annoying… and once Jackson "Fuck Protocol" Briggs got pissed at him, so did I and boy was it fun kicking his ass.
Story Mode is beast mode. Real talk. That's all I can say. I know I'm going to get butthurt once finishing it.
Oh, and yeah, you should already know. Sarus was going to get salty from kicking Kitana's ass over and over again in the Shang Tsung's Garden during the MK1 timeline, despite all of that, it's still fucking awesome as shit.I planned on calling it a night once I got the "Halfway There!" trophy, but as soon as I got… Kitana's chapter started and I got into a 1v2 fight. Man, that was the easiest 1v2 fight. Ever. (lol) I tried to quit again and my second main's chapter started. Gah! After her chapter, I finally got to someone I didn't care for. Kung Lao. Night! Haha!
I must say, Smoke, who I thought was assy at first, is NOT ass. He's pretty damn good and a tricky bastard too.
Liu Kang? He sucks. The only thing I see good from him is his X-Ray letting you do another attack. That's 'bout it. The parry is nice and all, but bleh… they fucked up his moveset commands. Don't like.Anywho! I'll be down to play with you nigs tomorrow and cut your goddamn arms and heads off.
By the way, check me out!

I don't have this game yet because Amazon is a piece of shit.
I pre-ordered the game on MARCH 17th.
On April 18th, they told me I would get it on the 20th. On the 19th, they said the 21st. Yesterday, they said I would get it on the 22nd so I complained and they said that they would definitely send it out and I would get it tomorrow. TODAY I get a message telling me it won't get sent out until the 25th so I complained again.
You know what they told me though? My problem was that I had apparently preordered it before that added release date delivery so they sent out all of their copies to people who pre-ordered after me.

Anyone else having problems with their Playstation Network…
Apparently servers are down for a LOT of people =\

Yeah, I wasn't able to sign on at ALL last night.
