The hype train is hitting me really hard for this. Like, I'm going out to preorder today, and I'm probably going to pick up the komplete edition of MK9 while I'm at it, so I can play through story and arcade mode again.
Going to refresh my memory on reptile combos. He was my boy in the last one. Well Sektor and his VERY NINJA JETPACK was my main, but he's absent.

Also, I've always hated Johnny Cage as a character, But he's appealing to me a lot more in this. The costume, the cage knucks...he also seems more Nolan Northesque. A word I just invented.
lol poor Killer Instinct. Every time I get the urge to dig in and start getting really involved in it, something else comes out and pulls me away from it. Even Hisako's awesomeness can't keep me away from MKX.

Alright, that might be the most hilarious Fatality ever. Going dark on fatality and xray videos now, as I want to be surprised by the rest.
Also, for those of you upset about Jade's absence, Kitana's Mournful variation has a few of her attacks and special moves, so that's something at least. (not really spoilers Jade still isn't in, but spoilers anywat cause KALYX HAS TO HAVE IT)
Went and picked up the komplete edition of MK9 on 360 so I can refresh myself on this over the weekend. Not that I was any good to begin with, but if anyone wants to play hit me up.

Also, we need an Art of Mortal Kombat book.
Not like the rinky dink one that came with last game's special edition, but a TRUE 300+ page tome of art work and commentary.
I don't think I'm alone in saying that one of the biggest reasons I keep coming back to the MK franchise is for it's unique, atmospheric art direction and character design. Been collecting these kinds of books for the past year, and given MK's history, there is more than enough content throughout the years to easily rival Udon's Complete Works series of Capcom art books.
Make it happen Ed!

If anyone is interested, the mobile version of the game was released today. The mobile version does have some issues with random crashing though.
NetherRealm Studios previous said players who play either the mobile or console version of the game with a WB Play account will unlock content for the other. This is much like the ability to unlock things for Injustice by playing the mobile version.
Mortal Kombat X for mobile is available for iOS and Android devices, but users reported it’s not available for Google Play yet. I was able to verify this through multiple devices.

Besides the typical characters and skins, Warner Bros and/or NetherRealm snuck in more stuff into the game's microtransaction system. Was only discovered after launch and now includes the ability to purchase packs of Easy Fatalities and an accelerator to get everything unlocked at once (costs around $20).
PS4 and Xbox One version has this system while the PC version doesn't (or at least for launch). Same Easy Fatalities packs are said to be found in the Krypt for the non-real cash option, just takes longer to purchase and use them.

Not sure if the PC version is affected but some complaints about the game locking you into whatever server/region the digital game was purchased in. So if you bought the game from UK/Europe's PSN, can't play online with people from US or other regions.

Not how it works. Work on making DLC isn't diverted production. It's decided after principle assets are decided. Not doing this easy fatality thing would not mean more launch content.
While people are getting pissed at easy commands, I didn't forget that this game has Jason and Predator coming. I have perspective.

Apparently the PC version is a mess at the moment. Partially due to High Voltage Software likely doing a shoddy port and partially due to Valve's debut of a new pre-loading system completely fell apart.
Valve's new system is meant to mimic what's done on the PS4 where only 3 GB of the game is required at first and then the rest downloads in the background. Instead what happened was the game either never downloads the rest or the wrong stuff got downloaded first making the game crash constantly.

Seems like the PS4 version also has region locking for game servers. Doesn't seem like the Xbox One has that issue although most of the talk has been about the PS4 and PC version at the moment.
PC issues seem to be more of Netherealm's and High Voltage Software's problem than Valve's. Supposedly they broke it down into too many individual sections and gets read more like how DLC packs install than a normal PC/PS4 installation.

While it is no doubt ridiculous to pay for something like that, it probably isn't any moreso than using a Codebreaker or GameShark to activate 1-button fatalities at the end of matches.
Paying for an x amount as opposed to having it as a feature that could be toggled in the game through the use of a code/password or unlocking the ability to have easy fatalities is pretty lame, though.

Last game most of the women looked like generic warrior strippers. Now they have much cooler looking, more detailed outfits, but that's no good because NEED MORE BEWBS. Fucking mutants.
Second, and bigger shitstorm is a very minor spoiler for Kung Jin
It's never outright said, but implied that Kung Jin is gay. I don't know, I haven't played it yet. This has caused all the overreacting homophobe space cadets to shit their pants and shout that NRS is pandering to gays and social justice warrior. Because one gay dude equals an agenda. Gay people exist. Stands to reason a person in a videogame could be gay. Who fucking cares? The religious fantatics apparently, because they've been coming out of the woodwork.

While I'm all for the faction warfare and being able to play as Goro, the online servers have been acting up as of late and you might not be able to get in sometimes and get a few matches in or take part in invasions. Kicker is, the bulk of the achievements/trophies are online based.

Classic fatalities are currently rumored to be arriving as a DLC pack in the near future. So far just confirmed for the PC version.
http://www.destructoid.com/are-klassik-fatalities-koming-to-mortal-kombat-x--290691.phtml
PS4 version currently dealing with a game breaking bug called "CE-34878-0" which is mostly messing up online play for the game. Some warnings regarding the quick fix since it can lead to saves being deleted or corrupted as a side effect.
If you own a digital copy of Mortal Kombat X on PS4, you may have encountered a nasty error that goes by the name of CE-34878-0. In short, it screws with online play, and for the time being you'll have to do a little Texas two-step around it until developer NetherRealm can provide a full fix.
What you'll want to do is sign out of the PSN manually outside of Mortal Kombat X, restart it, and sign back in after the menu appears. Then you'll be able to play online, as well as be advertised to for all of the hot new DLC that didn't come with your launch copy.

Newest update for the game (1.02) added in a new move for Takeda, several moves getting tweaked for a couple of characters, and a free klassic costume for Sub Zero.

Ed Boon teased at the possibility of unplayable characters shown during the game's story mode arriving in the future as DLC packs although not as part of the game's Season Pass.
While the PC version of Mortal Kombat X is still being worked on, modders are discovering playable characters that aren't in the core game outside of CPU-controlled story elements, like Baraka, Rain, and Sindel.
When asked if these characters would make it in the full game, Ed Boon responded with a cryptic "U mean like a "Story Pack?" This would put it outside the purview of the first four DLC packs included with the Season Pass.

I would say so. It's not like other fighting games where it's almost all multiplayer content. The story mode in each game is quite long, and very fun.
On top of that, there is a traditional arcade mode with endings for each character. Then there's the challenge tower stuff.
So yeah, both games offer plenty of content to warrant a purchase even if you're not going online.
Like I said though, get MK9 first. The story mode in 10 is a direct continuation of the story mode in 9, so you'll likely be lost if you go right to 10. 9 is still a lot of fun though, and you can get the Komplete edition which has all the dlc in it for 20 bucks now.

I would say so. It's not like other fighting games where it's almost all multiplayer content. The story mode in each game is quite long, and very fun.
On top of that, there is a traditional arcade mode with endings for each character. Then there's the challenge tower stuff.
So yeah, both games offer plenty of content to warrant a purchase even if you're not going online.
Like I said though, get MK9 first. The story mode in 10 is a direct continuation of the story mode in 9, so you'll likely be lost if you go right to 10. 9 is still a lot of fun though, and you can get the Komplete edition which has all the dlc in it for 20 bucks now.
Good advice.... Thanks, TPWW family!!!

Voorhees’ inclusion in the game is part of the Horror Pack for those who didn’t get the Kombat Pack with Mortal Kombat X. The Horror Pack also includes horror film-inspired skins for Mileena as a vampire, Reptile as a kraken and Ermac as a pharaoh. The Horror Pack releases May 12.

2 patches were recently released for the PC version with a 3rd patch arriving soon.
Just this week, Ermac's Master of Souls meter drain glitch was patched as was Kenshi's Leaping Sword and Head Splitter abilities. Cassie Cage's Spec Ops build was also fixed, as it would lock up the game when did a specific attack to a Grandmaster Sub-Zero ice clone -- haha, such a specific bug.
Netherrealm has also announced that Kung Lao will be fixed as well, as he has a glitch that allows him to build meter too quickly.

Warner Bros could end up facing some legal action in the future regarding claims of purposely misleading consumers with the Kombat Pass. According to a report from Destructoid, Warner Bros is claiming they never advertised the Kombat Pass as a separate Season's Pass for the game nor it being covered by the regular Season's Pass while evidence from retailers points at the opposite being true.
Warner Bros statement after being contacted about the situation:
"Thank you for your feedback. I understand your concern but the Kombat Pass is not a Season Pass and it was not advertised as one. It includes the specific DLC listed here."
Destrutoid's report from what the actual ads stated:
But that claim doesn't stand up as it was clearly advertised as a season pass, especially when mentioned alongside preorders. EB Games, GameStop, PSN, Amazon, Best Buy, Newegg and even the Xbox One card available in stores either outright states it is a season pass or at least says you "Get everything MKX has to offer."

PS3 and Xbox 360 versions were delayed to a TBA date.
According to Kotaku, fans first learned about the delay when GameStop informed customers on Friday that the game has been delayed from summer to fall.
The retailer’s official website does not list any fall dates for the game, however. Instead, a dummy date of Dec. 31 is listed for both the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions of the game, which usually indicates that a publisher is uncertain when the game will release.

Just this week, the Predator was unveiled by way of Mortal Kombat X's Tower Mode, where players were able to face him as a CPU opponent. People have been recording nonstop since then, trying out every single possible ability against the new combatant.
The biggest discovery comes by way of player DarmanDonphan, who discovered that Erron Black's X-Ray move writes "Ugly Mofo" on the bullet. A safe for work reference to the not safe for work Arnold quote made famous from the first film. Predator is still aiming for a July release date.

"After months of development, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment has come to the regrettable conclusion that we cannot release Mortal Kombat X for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Please know our teams worked diligently to meet the quality standards set by the current-gen versions of the game.

Rain is not in the game. He's the story mode, where the CPU does some attacks balanced for single player. But that is not Rain. Rain being in the game is him being a fully fleshed out character, with balanced normals and specials. Also a balanced out group of styles to choose.
They would not just 'unlock' him. He's not in the game.
