I haven't played one of these since OG in early 90's....and I am soooo pumped for this one!!!! Going to watch movies to re-acquaint myself with movies to prepare my lore knowledge.
Does anyone know what the "BloodCode" is for this one is yet? There's no "C" button on X1 controller.
Also will Wii U version have blood?

I know there is no Wii U version, just wanted to remind the kids that there was a time when blood and gore was taboo!
Does he? I guess if one thinks that Kano minus the cyborg eye looks Chinese...
Then again, looking at his history, Sub Zero unmasked has never once looked Chinese in the slightest.
edit: I just read up on his history a bit and apparently he's only half-Chinese. Still doesn't excuse the boring design.
Everything's pointing to it being young Sub, but there hasn't been any explanation for why he's no longer a cyborg.

The comic says that it's the younger but we don't know how he got uncyborg'd yet.

Bo Rai Cho is in this? DAMN! I really dig that dude in these games.
Well, if Quan Chi can raise them from the dead then I guess restoring their bodies wouldn't be a big deal for him.
We saw Sindel too, and she got obliterated by Nightwolf.

That's entirely up to High Velocity Software.
I would have preferred that Netherrealm handled the PC version, like they are with the PS4 and XB1 releases rather than outsourcing.
HVS is also ported MK9 for PC, which I have no experience of it's netcode. So whatever job they did with MK9 is likely to be expected of MKX.

Yes and last time we saw the revived Kuai in the Netherrealm near the end of 9 his body wasn't exactly fleshy
Besides we're confirmed to see the process happen in the comic eventually iirc

I think it's hilarious that every dead character from MK9 is getting a revenant form, yet only the ones NRS likes will actually get restored. Sucks to be Smoke, Stryker, etc. lol
Also, at this point the only characters that we know are in the game but haven't been "officially" revealed are Shinnok, Jax, and Erron right? Plus the unlockable sekret character.

So I expect shinnok to get wrecked in this and then we can have Samsung and crunchy GOAT deadly alliance next? Just ignore onagas army.
Gobble.
What if he did get his arms back, but then got them fucked up again? Huh? Huh?!

Maybe he did get them back. In the old timeline the metal arms were just put on top of his real arms (as seen in various costumes from MK4 and on)
I'm gonna miss Noob, Smoke and 2v2 Ladders...
Wait, is 2v2 out?
Yep, that's what they said in the last Stream. Blew my mind, lol NRS!
That's... an odd regression. The tag-team combat added a lot of interesting scenarios to story fights and the challenge tower, and made it more fun to play with a group of friends.
But uh... however you want to design your game NRS... :\

Goddamn. He and Sektor were some of my mains in MK9.
It's only natural that I (and a lot of other people for that matter) are going to be disappointed by the roster, but the total omission of cyborgs REALLY hurts. Boon tweeted this a while back though.
Character design in MKX is all over the place. D'Vorah, Kotal and Ferra/Torr look like amazing new characters to the roster, while the designs of Sonya, Jacqui, Takeda, Kung Jin, Kitana and Liu Kang are terrible. Here's hoping the alt. costumes I haven't seen yet are more to my liking.

You are kidding, right? Jacqui looks alright, Sonya and Kitana's design were never as good as they are in MKX, Old Liu Kang looks awesome and... Yeah, the two guys look kinda bad. But seriously, how exactly do Kitana and Sonya look bad? You sure you aren't talking about MK9, because they sure look embarrassing in that game and they look fine in MKX.
Yeah I am wondering how they are gonna explain that lol

Takeda and Kung Jin remind me of characters like Kobra and Dairou from Deception--bland nobodies who will never appear again (sans Trilogy/Armageddon situations).

No, I'm not kidding.
Very subjective I guess, but I disliked Kitana and Sonya's design in MK9 as well. Kitana's has improved, but Sonya's remains on the same generic level. Weird face, lame outfit.
I know they are human, and adding "something special/unique" to human characters is somewhat hard to do, but I just find them incredibly dull looking. Even Sub Zero's alt is very generic and uninteresting to me.
Except for Deadly Alliance, where he got unceremoniously killed in the intro cutscene.

Takeda definitely had a lot of personality in the pre-battle quips during the last Konbat Kast (even with the terrible voice acting) plus he's got like plasma beams and spiked whips and shit. He's pretty cool.
Kung Jin is pretty eh.
I stopped playing after Deadly Alliance, In fact the only thing I remember from that was Reptile's crab-style. I though Kang was in that wearing chains. Maybe I'm lost.
Zombie Liu Kang had chains in Deception

Speaking of Zombie Liu Kang, I wonder if they revealed the person that controlling him.

Well on the forum site Everyone is loving takada, so you be wrong
Kung Jin all relies on how he plays in hands and in story
