Just got it and played some of the story mode. It's cool. Really well-done for what it is.

Such a weird feeling to actually learn new characters in a fighting game. When I first played Sonya I hated her, but by the end of her chapter I felt like I could use her pretty effectively. I think this might be the game that really gets me into fighters.

The story gets even better after chapter 3ish and such i think. Maybe its just that it grew on me or something, but I felt that it was more well done after an hour or two in. I got go climb the challenge tower a bit more now though since I have beaten story :P.

Yeah learning characters is strange haha. Right now my favorite is Kitana (Never expected it to be lol), but I have yet to play as everyone.

I think the challenge tower will ruin me, lol. I spent way too much time on the Event mode in SSB Melee, and that only got hard in the last few fights.

I was never a fan of Kano in the previous games but I have taken quite a liking to him in MK9, great range of moves and really easy to string them together.

Couldn't agree more, as much as I liked the story I pretty much hated playing with every character until I got to Sub Zero since I have played with him a lot on the demo. Didn't help that I put the difficulty on hard and was dying a lot especially from matches where you face two opponents. But now that I have had more time I love some of the characters I didn't particularly enjoy in the story.

Awesome f***ing game. I've put more time into this game in two days than I've probably put into any fighting game in my life. Love the accessiblility of the combat, and the brutal style of everything. This is a gamer's fighter through and through.

Glad you're enjoying it. So many people have written off this game with a snobish attitude just because its MK. Their loss. I cant really find anything substantial to complain about and I'm a VERY picky gamer lol.

My sickest combo damage wise is still with Sub. I had to force myself to get good with him after I burnt myself out with Scorp on the demo.

Smoke is my main though, and Noob is right behind him, but I have a very strong game with Scorp and Sub.

And I'm glad you're diggin Kitana. She was my favorite there for a while (well a day or two lol). She can keep an opponent in the air for days! :lol:

Did Kratos live up to your expectation in the game ? I rather like his play style despite being slower than what you would expect from him but than again if Kratos played in MK9 like he did in GOW3 no one would be alive, lol.

This is the one genre where lag just absolutely kills it for me. I was so angry dealing with that when SF4 first came out. It got noticeably better over time though, so hopefully MK can get it together as well.

Its too repetitive and at times it gets completly boring ( probably because im not a big of a fan of fighting games ), very frustrating at times, too much blood and gore gets annying the mroe you play, fitalities nothing that amazing like people make it, completly a 6.5/10game.. kratos was a nice add in there, i play as him the most on arcada

You highly over-emphasise Kratos' abilities. Raiden is also a "god" and can get pummelled by everyone else in the tournament, including a police officer who wields a gun and grenades. ;)

Heh, you never know. I've gotten so used to my friends play styIes, so it might screw me up when I go online. The other day I almost lost a round to a guy that had never even played the game before lol. Everything he did was just so unexpected lol.

But yeah man, just go to practice mode and work on those combos! If you're having trouble with a specific part then try isolating it and practice just that section over and over till its second nature. Thats all I do and eventually it all just comes together.

LMAO the same thing happened to me a few years ago with Soul Calibur II. I was the man at that game and no one could beat me (Link usually). Then one of my friends friends who had never played before beats me because I just couldnt predict his buttom mashing ways :P. Twas frustrating lol.

Kratos the only character i use to play on Arcada mode and the most character too i used on training mode to learn all his moves. he's a cool add on. wish he was in the story

finalstar2007

I would have gladly payed extra for the PS3 version if NRS incorporated him in the story, not a huge part but something like Shao Khan searches through realms and brings a fighter(Kratos), manipulates him to turn on Raiden. Thus before the last fight Raiden has in the story he first has to take care of Kratos. By doing so he rids him of the curse and sends him back to his realm. And before we see Kratos in the finale of the story we see glimpses of him before Shao Khan in certain parts of the game, camera panning to his sword on one scene, his tattoo in another.

We all know Kratos would rip Raiden's head off and use it as a lantern, skipping back home :P.

[QUOTE="foxhound_fox"]Awesome f***ing game. I've put more time into this game in two days than I've probably put into any fighting game in my life. Love the accessiblility of the combat, and the brutal style of everything. This is a gamer's fighter through and through.sandbox3d

Glad you're enjoying it. So many people have written off this game with a snobish attitude just because its MK. Their loss. I cant really find anything substantial to complain about and I'm a VERY picky gamer lol.

Yea those people give me a headace. Its not like anyone is saying its the deepest fighter out there but its still a good one. I was reading something on ign that basicly let the editors speak thier thoughts on the game and one editorbasicly said this as a negative"Its a fighting game thats for people who dont like fightersand I like fighters" he basicly tried to play this off as logic. When in fact that me and my friend who enjoy fighters really like the game breaks that logic.

That sounds pretty good and agree, they really should have added him in story :(

....excuse me :|...how do you POSSIBLY come to a conclusion like that? I am bouncing back and forth between an 8.5 and a 9.0.

Its too repetitive and at times it gets completly boring ( probably because im not a big of a fan of fighting games ), very frustrating at times, too much blood and gore gets annying the mroe you play, fitalities nothing that amazing like people make it, completly a 6.5/10game.. kratos was a nice add in there, i play as him the most on arcada

You haven't seen/unlock them all, Noob's fatalty didn't amaze you?D=

How do you unlock more fitalities? :P.. by beating story? with PSN being down i been truly focusing on single player games, i just play at night and already beat Enslaved, bioshok 2 ( which was sooo goood! ) and soon with star ocean TLH

To be fair, there have been some pretty ignorant MK fans, acting like MK is now the definitive fighter, and calling other, deeper fighters, not as good.

The ignorance does flow from both sides, that is for sure. Obviously I love MK9, but I dont think its the most well made fighter by any means. At the same time its kind of dumb to say you cant enjoy MK9 (IGN) just because you play other fighters.

Well yeah, Saying you can't enjoy it because you actually enjoy fighters is stupid to say.

But there is one guy on SW that had the most ignorance twoards fighters I've ever seen.

He said every fighter from Japan was the same, even recent ones, based on an experience in arcades over 15 years ago. Around the time when SF2 was getting popular, so other developers were copying them.

I mean, I don't really care for MK9, but I'm not spending every moment telling people that its not a fighter/its generic/it sucks. That type of stuff.

Yeah, I know lol.... I think Percech is the poster you are thinking of. He usually seems like a level headed guy, but he shot off like a loose cannon in that one thread. I wanted to get his back at first since he was simply sick of people trash talking MK, but then he started going a little too far and before I knew it he had gone off the deep end. :lol:

At least some of the stuff was funny to read though.

I like threads like that. Always make SW seem entertaining. It's usually boring without them.
