Im afraid the single player mode story is going to be dreadful in the next game. The story they used in MK9 (MK1-3) was a collection of the best stories they had for the iconic characters. The stories from 4 on are AWFUL to downright insulting. I am not looking forward to playing the story of zombie Liu Kang.

Solid netcode, day 1 PC port and the option to hold back to block would get me to at least consider the game despite being out of the series for over a decade.
A gay/heterosexual porno, eh?

I did, it was kind of an hyperbole, hence the /rant, but having played UMK3/T for years MK9 just doesn't feel like a MK game to me...
TBH, UMK3/T were my last and most played MK entries in the franchise, played them on SNES, NDS, PS1 and N64.
I don't know how to describe it, but i just can't get used to the new gameplay.
Midway already did something like that in their older game Bio F.R.E.A.S.

the game was bad, but fighting with a character that has no hands and with every move of his cut limbs spills blood all around was... interesting
Implement everything learned from Injustice great fucking game.
Use Injustice combo system. Back to block with option of block button for certain fatalities.
Different air moves for everyone always hated that MK9 kept the legacy same karate drop kick for everyone.
Injustice super moves, MK Xray moves as separate things.
Easier to perform fatalities, way more fatalities per fighter.
Interactive environments, Stage weapons as well. Multiple stage fatalities.
MK vs Street Fighter with full gore or not at all. Have Capcom crawl to you they have a boner for western game developers and Injustice is better than any fighter they have put out recently. There sales are slipping your sales are on the rise make them come to you.
Awesome guest characters. Hopefully Batman! scratch that he wouldn't do fatalities perhaps do something funny with him like have Joker come out of nowhere with the fatalities or just feature The Joker instead.
I fucking love you NetherRealm Studios!!!
Please never make the mistake of compromising for anyone ever again on your IP.

Well of course I'm kidding!
Quite afew characters from that list i want. Kenshi looks like a badass in Armageddon.
This one .
Or at least let us fight him. I was so pissed when I realized I couldn't fight against Motaro in Story Mode...
Also, the general design of the characters is , in my opinion, horrible. That was always a problem with MK, but seriously, half of the cast is terribly done, particularly the females (and not only the faces).
Baron Aloha
A Shining Example
I'd like them to model the characters after real actors (kind of like wrestling games do) to make the characters as realistic looking as possible. I'd like them to construct actual sets and scan those in for the backgrounds. Basically I want them to go back to their roots so to speak. I've had enough cartoony MK (which is essentially what all the 3D games have been). I'd like to see them shock people again.

Yep, Netcode is the biggest thing for me.
Also, your avatar fucking rocks. Numba One is awesome.
I know you mean the movie one but I so wish you meant the MK1 theme. Or even better yet, the Now The Kombat Kontinues attract mode song from MK2.

I don't want that second pause that happens when you land an air attack. i hate it.
If you're looking for mature sexual commentary in a MORTAL KOMBAT game, you're looking in the wrong place.
Well good thing I didn't ask for that then! What I WOULD like is for them either to sexualize the men in the same way (mankini Liu Kang with swaying hips and a giant bulge as his default costume for example would be hilarious) or give the females good costumes.

I sucked six dicks to get this tag.
-Better animations(those action figure animations gotta go)
-Back to block system(improve on how they added it to Injustice, so we can get crossups in mk)
-Projectiles Actually Clash(pretty stupid how nrs/midway games the projectile goes through each other)
-Limit the number of breakers per match(tired of seeing/dealing with a breaker every off every single hit in high level matches. wager system was a good step forward)
-Actual good females designs like Killer Frost/Catwoman and less of the rest of nrs designed female characters that look like they can be either a tranny or a manish looking woman.
-A more free-flowing combat system while still retaining some of dat mkstyle so more potential for combos
-Good netcode like TTT2/SC5
-Lil More depth
-Just better gameplay all around tbh

Anyone else like Reiko? Liked his character a lot. Was hoping he'd be DLC for MK9.
Remastered versions of those would be great. Also, they need to put the classic ninja poses back from umk3
Frost as a playable character (with SZ's fate, a faster and agile ice wielder would be a good fit), and more than a single brutality animation/two fatalities per character. I suspect the arena interactions from Injustice might make an appearance, which could be interesting.
Certainly enjoyed the story, Mythos, characters, and overall feel of the MK9 far more than Injustice...

- netcode
- 60fps
- better balance - like some other poster said no more kabal or kung lao situations
- female characters that look female in the face
- list of characters I would personally like to see return : almost everyone mk9, funjin, Ashrah, human subzero , havik, Reiko
- more costume and even stage dlc's
- did I mention netcode
- a more realistic and gritty art direction
edit: heck no on back to block
I love that mk is like the only fighter with a dedicated block button

A decent netcode and the ability to turn off that shitty negative edge NRS uses that makes the game unplayable for me, just like in Injustice.
I'm confident NR will make a worthy follow up but one think they may not do is make the characters models look really special. The only problem I have with MK9 is that most of the character models look amateur especially compared to Japanese fighters. NR really needs to up their art and get better people for character design, most notably for the female characters!
- continue the MK plot, I loved the paradoxes
- better models with different body sizes. (ALL models were the same size)
- better fatalities, not only limb damage etc. (make them more unique)
- keep it 2d
- 3v1 kombat
- 4v4 kombat
- better online
- tournament mode
- more wacky secrets
- bring harakiri/animalities back
- ???
- profit
or make Shaolin Monks 2 and take my money either way
-better/new animation system. hell, they are still using animations from deadly alliance (2002) in mk9...
-female characters that dont look like c-grade prostitutes. it was embarrassing in mk9.
sexy? hell yes! but not like this.
-keep the 2d gameplay
-if they need to add characters from the ps2 era, add frost, ashrah, limei, shujinko (old), reiko (his armageddon look), hotaru.
OR just make fire & ice, the sequel to shaolin monks with subs and scorpion. now that would be fucking amazing!

This stuff, but also leave ranked and player matches in addition to lobby adding. Plus
- balance Kabal's tools and remove IAFB
- do something to contain the reset damage of characters like Smoke/Cyrax and a few others. I doubt such things were intended
- make a SEPERATE meter for breakers so that Xrays and EX moves do not interfere with your defensive meter strategies, but have this meter fill much slower to lessen the amount of breakers possible
- stop putting in different width stages. Universal stage sizes
- GOOD character models. There are some terrible models in MK9 for a game with such good textures and lighting
- rebalance several cast to improve various aspects of their game while adjusting issues with overpowered tools
- Adjust the way meter and tags work in tag Kombat to make it more fair in terms of resets, setups, and damage. It requires its own balance at this point.

Agreed. I think it also gives you more control over blocking. Back-to-block is a lot like setting a block to auto.
One thing on my wishlist would be Animalities. I was kind of a fan even though they didn't make much sense story-wise and they would awesome with next-gen graphics.
Crossups/Mixups

Dynamic stages like Injustice but balanced: no unblockable pigs please.
I think they can afford to scale back some of the juggling. In MK9 you could juggle someone several times by dash/light punching.
Don't give every character a projectile attack.
Include a Mortal Kombart Karting mode

The poster asked for non-shitty female designs, not removing the sexy. A lot of the female designs in Mortal Kombat are generic and shitty, and they don't have to be that way. Take Mileena, one of the few female characters with a good design. Mileena works because everything about her design relates to her character; she dresses like a slut because she's obsessed with beauty and sensuality, she covers her mouth so you can't see it, she's thin because she is weak but fast, and she also has a "gimmick" with her creepy face. Use the same sort of aesthetic theory for other female characters (And other characters in general).
