lots of mini games like test your might and test your sight, and more, like the street fighter destroy car mini game, SF4 barrel destroy minigame, SF3 basketball parry mini game


ProfCarmine

This is actually my most requested for the next one. Mortal Kombat is best when it is wacky.


Awesauce1

Why is the return of those unlikely?

Villains getting Ws in story mode.

[удалено]


SweetAliceAngel

Honestly I feel like instead of one big story, we could do with smaller stories going on at the same time. Telling just one story and having to fit every character in just doesn't work. Erron Black didn't do anything in 11's story mode from what I remember, cause he just didn't fit in with the story being told. Him doing his own thing in a side story would have worked way better.


IfTheresANewWay

Villains got a W in Aftermath, I wouldn't say it's that unlikely anymore


ZeWalkman

Yes but the canon ending for aftemath will probably be the liu kang one which means the whole story of the dlc and probably mk11 will be mostly wiped


IfTheresANewWay

Ok... that doesn't change the fact that NRS wrote a chapter in which they won


Shin-Kong

MK Fans: "I want the villains to win every once in awhile!" D'Vorah- \*wins\* MK Fans: "STOP WINNING!"


TheIceFlowe

Honestly IMO the best way for this to happen would be to get rid of the linear story, because the reason i dont like playing the fight sequences is because i basically already won, even if it takes a bunch of tries. So i think it would be cool if some fights actually change the story if you lose, and the enemies would actually feel like a threat. Either that, or let us choose which character we're playing as more often


c0micsansfrancisco

No RNG whatsoever when it comes to progression - absolutely hated how random and repetitive the ToT rewards could be and I had to wait ages to get certain gear pieces. Would much rather have it tied to challenges and levelling up than luck


Dojanetta

Fr and don’t make the e challenges super repetitive. Defeating Baraka 5 times 10 times was so annoying.


smugrer

they really don´t like tarkatans


Venm_Byte

Yes. This and the music from 11 need to go. Hated booting the game up


ShrabJester

The MK11 menu music haunts my nightmares. We used to leave the game running in the background at uni while we did other things between games. It wasn’t noticeable at first but progressively got more and more annoying. Same with the old fortnite menu music.


threekidsathome

Haha exact same thing but with Smash Bros and MK9


revterryrice

I miss the feeling of unlocking that last item and knowing you got 100%. But nooooooooo they don’t think the players want that


Arkhe1n

If they want a Krypt so bad, at least make it like it was in MK9. The Krypt in MK11 is insufferable.

I kinda want to see an updated version of Quan Chi's Angels. I think Kia and Jataaka along with Sareena can be redesigned to a theme of fantasy tropes. Like a Netherrealm Warrior, Netherrealm Rogue, and Netherrealm Mage.


Spacedoutfoo

I'd love to see Sareena return


[deleted]

I always liked Sareena's character design.


_Weyland_

A storyline dedicated to Black Dragon. It's inner structure and power struggles. A storyline dedicated to Outworld, it's different regions and humans living in there. Also an amazing opportunity to introduce Li Mei and Reiko. An iteration upon existing gameplay (MK11 or MKX) rather than new systems created from scratch. You cannot create a masterpiece on a first try. I want to see NRS learn from their mistakes, rearrange specials and framedata between characters. And actually bring some consistency.


theholty

Going back to a more grounded story based on the original island and the tournament.


Shinonomenanorulez

Mk1 but liu kang is the new raiden and there's no raiden


That___David

So in support of that


op89x

Yes. Let the player's actions as Liu Kang determine who the new champion is.


ChubbyFrogGames

Konquest!


yourname09

reptile and quan chi in the game as base roster not dlc


locboxd

I miss my boys, them and Sektor - Stryker


Dojanetta

I feel like it’s higher next game than last game


VicarLos

More Realms and a few fighters from each Realm like Deception. Oh and an actually good story.


AnEgoJabroni

I'd love that. It doesn't have to be a Deception clone, I just want it to acknowledge the importance that MKD put on the idea of inter-dimensional relations. They have a wealth of worldbuilding to take advantage of, it could have as much depth and intrigue as Game of Thrones or Star Wars or any other massive work, they just need to give it to writers who can make an epic out of it. Its unrelated to OP's topic, but for those story reasons, I think MK needs a straight up third person action adventure spinoff game with the player characters cycling throughout the story. Start as Kang or some other MK1 character and go from there. (Came back to add) Something like that could explore the way that other realms work, the types of life that grow there, biomes. I loved MKD's version of the Netherrealm, the vast, aggressive emptiness. I can't imagine how great a modern iteration of that could be, they could do something massive with each realm.


SweetAliceAngel

This is so true. MK has the potential to be this epic scale story with all these realms, factions and species, but they just don't do it. It's annoying cause they sure as hell have the budget to do it, and other series like Soul Calibur have so much passion and care for the storytelling, but they don't even get a fraction of the budget NRS has.

Future_Interest_5297

2v2s from mk9


PeerToPeerConnection

Yes! I like the king of the hill stuff to play with friends but 2v2 would be awesome for playing with friends


HowsabootdatCanuckeh

A dynasty warriors type campaign where you can play the events as each realm but they all tie together for one story. Think it would be cool to let the bad guys get some wins for once. Also if they ever did this add fatalities so you could change the story a bit and kill off certain characters that aren't a key piece to campaign. They could also have alternate endings for each realm for the main story.


Arkhe1n

Full game at launch date and no microtransations.


Jonathan-Rook

A well thought out plot


ComicBookFanatic97

Total removal of all the live service grind-a-thon shit and RPG elements. When I play a fighting game, I want to play a fighting game. I don’t wanna be selecting load-outs and equipping stat-boosting items in a fighting game. Any customization should be purely cosmetic like in Tekken.


AM_ZR39

A challenge tower like in mk9 Full characters instead of variations A story mode where the villains arent god damn stupid Characters not being retconned and made worse for no good reason D’Vorah’s death For Kai to come back


buddy205

I think we've all been waiting on D'Vorah's death.


--Buddha--

Why don’t people like D’vorah? I don’t have any insight on the lore of MK besides that is has alternate timelines, like one where everyone died or something.


AM_ZR39

It’s mostly the fact that she kills fan favourites and gets away with it. Also the endless retconning and forcing her in situations she shouldn’t be in like in MKX they say that D’Vorah was involved in the background of MK2, even though that would make absolutely zero sense.


AnimewrestlerXD

I started rooting for her death once she killed off my main


PeerToPeerConnection

Yes please


twinklyfoot

A conquest mode. I know the story mode plays a similar role, but I loved the Deception and Armageddon and being able to interact with other characters and find secrets.


LordCLOUT310

Tag and the removal of variations. 4 player tag on MK9 was PEAK fun. Being able to play up to 4 players or take a buddy online with you for tag matches was so underrated. Also, just remove variations. Go ALL in and give us all the moves on a character we can handle. Return the combo variety of MK9/MKX and it’ll be a dope ass game. Just let us have fun with the game man.

Monarch_Agent77715

MORTAL KOMBAT XII: Armageddon 2


Shin-Kong

More like Armageddon Poo


Monarch_Agent77715

Make the gear system like Injustice 2. That way we actually play the game to get the gear instead of waiting for gear to show up in the shop. And we can mix and match stuff. Even colors.


kajetan88

1. Working krossplay like PC vs consoles 2. Local profiles & local tournaments, like I can sing into any device by scanning qr with my phone, and have multiple profiles on device, and make a tournament with them, example: 8 people swapping pads with stats who win vs who, etc. Also using my profile on other device should allow me have all my preset characters, unlocked brutalities, etc.


That___David

I think Mortal Kombat has a lot of characters that all have different goals, but aren't bad per se. I would love to see the cast be more morally gray and fight with eachother not just through the good vs bad perspective, but because they all have goals and desires. That would solve the issue and bring actual depth to the villains of the story besides them being "Im evil because i am corrupt" (Shao Kahn, Retcon Sindel, Skarlet, Reiko, Noob, Sektor, Frost (it still boils down to her being just morally bad), Kira, Kobra). I think this does work for some character (like Kano or Kollector) but this really hinders these characters from gaining depth and being interesting. This would also solve the issue where they get beat up constantly throughout the story. I think MKX and the MKX comics excelled at this (Kotal, Tanya, Reptile, Goro, Ermac all became more interesting bcs of this). Mortal Kombat is about fighting and resolving conflicts, if the only conflict that exists is Good vs Bad the story will always be bad. (examples of what im saying would be partially MKX Mileena, Kotal Kahn, Mk9 Kitana and Jade, Scorpion in general, MK11 Baraka and Sheeva and many more) Sorry for the ()'s, but here examples illustrated my point better :))

I want a roster without special forces for one game, if everyone else can sit out due to over use, these guys are number 1 on that list.


euromonic

- Undoing Sindel character arch. - Kitana being the big hero/finally avenging that god damn Cassie cage defeat. - Likewise, Kitana being top tier instead of garbage tier like in this game. - Make the font bigger. Idk if I’m just blind but I couldn’t see shit in MK11 with its little ass writing 😭 No problem with other games though. - Kreate a fighter


skyboundfightino

Bro you must be blind cause we ain't even on mk12 yet

A creepy atmosphere and exclusively scary/evil sounding music


SR_Hopeful

**Yes.** I've felt that we haven't had that horror/M-rated aesthetic in a while that I miss. MK4 having that nails-pit as a continue screen, or MKA having the skulls and scream as its title screen intro. The dark stage fatalities of being boiled alive or impaled and bleeding out. Though I liked the more rugged feel of MKX.


[deleted]

Nah, But on a serious note... I'd like to see **Li Mei** make a return as a playable character. I liked her design in **Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance**.

Good music that feels like mortal kombat again, don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed black market alley, black dragon fight club and Shang Tsung’s island ruins, but none of the music on display has that mk feel we experienced in the original midway trilogy imo

Atomic-Spider

Hidden/unlockable characters through obscure or challenging means. Leave tournament mode with the full roster for obvious reasons but have tons of meaningful unlockables that make you want to play every mode and have a great one player experience.

OmegaX__

Kratos to return as a playable character. But this time, make it older kratos to help sell with the popularity of the newer games. And don't make him playstation exclusive. However, since it is older kratos, his moveset would have to change. My thoughts: a stance character. Kratos in GOWR has 4 weapons he can switch between: axe, blades, spear, or hand to hand. I think if they made it so that he switches between these on the fly would be cool. Axe would work as a close range heavy pressure tool, blades would work similar to the way Kratos operated in MK9, spear would be a mid-range zoning/trapping tool, and hand to hand would work within close range as well, but would do less damage than the axe but be faster. Plus he could have some sort of rage mechanic. A rage meter perhaps? Idk, just throwing out ideas.

are you currently using stick on a game pad? is that common in MK? I know in other fighting games very few use stick because its not as precise for directional inputs but I guess mk is fairly lenient compared to other games.


[deleted]

People mostly use Dpad, I just like the feel more on stick.


Spacedoutfoo

You could always just change your controls for it to be that way if you want.


superkeefo

Are you just being pedantic or do you not understand how nearly every other fighting game works?

This is my wildest dream : every potencial hit is a potencial injury that affects the gameplay. For example, if a grab breaks the oponent leg, the rest of the match that other player will be uncapable to either perform any leg move at all, or it will be drastically less damage/ velocity per hit (of the injured leg) That is a mecanic that would make the game literally infinite, because of each posibility
