So? My point being is that it's an entirely new game built from the ground up not a remastered 1 - 2 year old game, we got people that already bought the previous DOA5 iteration very recently lol. Correct me if i'm wrong, isn't MKX being developed with next gen in mind and then it'll be ported to the previous generation consoles?
Edit: Oh yes, here we go.
" TRMK: Are you targeting development on next generation consoles or are you mostly concerned about keeping cross generational compatibility?
Ed Boon: NetherRealm is only doing the PS4 and Xbox One Versions. We may be doing the PC version as well, but the consoles are the priority. While we may be involved in the solution we will not be doing the implementation of the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions. "
Sauce. Welcome anytime.

There was nothing next-gen (regarding graphics) from the gameplay videos so far. You have a source for the bolded one?

The only thing that is bullshit is that you are preemptively getting angry about something that may or may not be true. Considering they carried forward any DLC from DOA5, DOA+, to DOA5U, there may be a chance the DLC will be compatible.
what? what did I do??
It actually seems like it will be the other way around -- a 1080p up-port.
Happy to see this announced; hoping there's new content but I assume it will just be DOA5U with a bunch of the DLC added. That's fine as long as the visuals and net code get a nice boost. There's s good chance the DLC will be cross-buy, too, since Koei did that with DW8.

Must be difficult to do something new for a change. I'll buy this when it is in the bargain bin.

At least they should include all the characters, at the end of the day they are using DOA5 as a platform to sell an insane amount of costumes. Is likely that they will give for free some costumes like they did with DOA5U, but not all of them for free.

I don't know, just the maid costume by itself isn't disgusting but in context, when she's got those other skimpy swimsuit DLC costumes and is in a game where every single other female character is definitely sexualised I find it hard to believe she wasn't made to cater to some fans who are, erm, attracted to "lolis".
That doesn't mean you can't like her as a character or anything. And yeah, I might be wrong and maybe the designers know lots of 18 year olds who look like that... I certainly don't, however. So I guess that's where I'm coming from.
Ugh, I forgot about that.
They just can't get enough of her pumpkin scone.

If they have any sense the DLC will be instantly cross buy, so all the purchases you've made will also register as purchased on the PS4 store and all you have to do is download it. I cant really imagine them asking anyone to pay for the same costumes twice. I bought everything except for the Private Paradise cut scenes and it adds up to quite a lot...actually I hope those scenes are included now cuz nothing will ever make me buy them separately.
What the fuck is this

MK X is using UE3, an engine which was first introduced to consoles in 7th gen. Previous MK also used the same engine and so did Injustice League. That means they are used to know all the optimization tricks for THAT engine. If they were confident enough for the install base of the new consoles they would use UE4. Obviously the game is not made up with Ps4 and XB1 in mind as the bigger fan base of MK is still using PS3 and Xbox 360.
You can check gameplay videos of the game. It looks pretty but NOT NEXT GEN pretty.

My point is that it's a new game being made entirely from the ground up and not relying on 2 year old assets, not to mention we got people that already are buying the previous DOA5 iteration, like when enough is enough? lol
MKX could look like MK2 for all I care as long as it's something that is being built up from scratch then i'm willing to support. Remastering 1 - 2 year old games? No thanks. So now we got DOA5: Final Round, Tomb Raider, Saints Row, Beyond(rumored), GTA5, The Last Of Us, Sleeping Dogs, Metro and State of decay remastered for next gen since this is the current trend. I wonder what's next lol.

YES! Now hopefully the characters are higher res, and of course better aa is a given.

Fighting games in general are least interesting genre to put eye candy in.
Tekken 5DR holds up even today because it is a clean image, with a stable framerate at a locked 1080p resolution.
If DOA5 is that on PS4/X1 thats more than good enough.

I seriously hope they add some better textures on the stages, even some of the obvious ground textures straight under the characters looked like PS2 quality.
Ahh ok.

I don't think they can use UE4 yet. Something to do with Warners having contracts for UE3. That's why Arkham Knight is using a heavily modified UE3 engine the same as the MK games.

Right sign, wrong HK stage. It actually looks like the DOATEC HK stage from DOA3. New stages looks promising.
I have serious reservations about the gameplay, in fact, I complained so much that Shimbori has cursed my name in public before, haha. Anyway, enough people seem to like it so I don't think they'll change too much but I really hope they really make every character over-the-top powerful. I hate what they call "balance." Everyone's biggest complaint is netcode though and I hope that really gets addressed. It'll be ridiculous to sell the same broken product a third (technically fourth) time.

Fantastic news! I'll definitely buy it when I buy a PS4. Hopefully it includes all the character dlc and some new costumes.
I want to make a correction, that costume it's a gothic lolita suit, it's of course more "daring" than the maiden one.
Of course, the other DLC costume are a lot more skimpy and of course that costume are really appealing, but again you need to consider the origin of this game and their primary market.
They looks pretty different compared to the western people (always much younger) and Japanese's culture about young people (and in general) is deeply different from the western.

Hopefully they include all the DLC. At worst, they should honor people's last Gen DLC purchases.
Yep. The characters look much better than they do in DOA4, but the textures in the stages and IQ got worse.

I can only agree with this : apart from the resolution it looks like the franchise has hardly evolved graphically .
DOA 3 even on the powerful Xbox was barely above DOA 2 and the same could be said with DOA 4 on the Xbox 360.
Ninja Gaiden has the same problem.
It's like they never changed their engine and lighting system since The Dreamcast but just bumped the polycount and the resolution.
This, this is what we need.
Yeah the guys are all pretty sh*t looking in DOA5. I could totally be up for this game if the "fan service" was equal opportunity.
