Kombat Kast Recap (3.19.15) Mileena + Takeda variations and more

[REDRUM]

has the kombat kast been youtube'd yet? i need to make a gif of Takeda's anti air move that looks incredible

 

[Crimzon-ET]

Wow, Mileena looks so freaking awesome both visually and gameplay wise. Also I think that her personality really shines in this game through her dialogue and moves. As for her variations I actually like all of her variations and I think that they are all pretty interesting. In particular her Ethereal variation looks really fun and interesting to me.

The new characters Takeda and Kung Jin look like great additions to the MKX roster and I might even check them out when the game comes out. However so far I think I have narrowed my MKX main search down to either Mileena,Ferra Torr, or Shinnok at this point.

The Quitalities remind me of the Hara Kiri's from MK Deception. It would have been funny if Netherreallms called them Rage Quitalities,Ha!

 

[Dark]

Have we got any theories on what this is?

Other than the third one obviously being koins.
Level and faction level? There are two different types of level ups based on the achievements, right?

NRS just saved people hundreds of dollars.....your move street fighter

 

[Voodoo]

I must be the only person who actually liked Takeda's dialogue.

 

[DuBBer Kiir]

Please god don't let her get nerfed because of whiny online bitches within 2 months

 

[Hexin_Wishes]

MIleena is too flawless, I'm so excited.
Takafugly Tablanda is only interesting to me with lasher variation
Kung Jin was actually pretty dull (Poor Nightwolf though)

what?

 

[Knoterror]

I just want to say thanks to @tylerlansdown (and all of NRS for that matter) for bringing this stuff to the community. That was a hugely entertaining stream! We all really appreciate the info, even if we're constantly screaming at you guys to show us Goro or what have you.

And you'll get Derek next time man! You were so close!

 

[EMPEROR PRYCE]

what?

By allowing use of ps3 sticks via adding old drivers to the game. They save people money by them not having to buy a new stick

 

[Shark Tank]

I must be the only person who actually liked Takeda's dialogue.

Nah I liked it too. Cute kid

 

[Eddy Wang]

Hopefully i can see the Youtube version from the NRS channel in the next 6 hours.

Don't worry Tyler, i'll help you.

Oh, now I get it. But the wait will be in vain because iirc madcatz has an agreement with capcom and I doubt they will allow it.

 

[themagiccan2]

Anyone else getting a Evil Dead+Mileena vibe out of her new look? lol. She's hot yet creepy...lol

I like it though, she has lips it's like they mixed up her teeth, ugly face with almost deceiving Edenian face with the lips.

Takeda looks sweet, easily one of the best range guys in the game so far IMO.

Kung Jin=Nightwolf+Kung Lao+Green Arrow lol all rolled into one.

I may actually use Mileena in this game a little bit, her third variation/zoning one looks sweet!

More like Kung Jin=Nightwolf+Kung Lao+Green Arrow+Scorpian+Kenshi+Raiden(MGS)+Darth Maul+Whiplash(Iron Man)+Jaken's Staff(Inuyasha). I think he's pretty damn cool

 

[DirtyLary]

One of Ermac's variations is copying Hawkgirl, for starters.

Other moves taken from Injustice:
Kenshi's demon thing(From Zod's demon thing)
Reptile's time slowing variation(taken from Flashes trait)

Probably more too. It is what it is, no use complaining.

Should have said they were recycled assets from IJGA, which is obvious to all. Its the next step in their engine/game code after all.

 

[Shania Twain]

I find it a bit interesting that cyrax's bombs, rain's bubbles, and kabal's ground blade all being made as modifiers for this specific mode that can't even be played online but yet those characters are not in the game. They are all brand new effects even. It's also as if they made a point to show them specifically. Anyway...even if it means nothing I accept that it is what it is. Mileena and kitana look amazing. Takeda IMO just is not quite there. he has a very boring generic costume and that certainly is not helping. If he looked more awesome it would help. Kung Jin is just crap all around. They were even bored when showing him off. and the Quitality...I get it but what happens if someone pulls their ethernet cord and desyncs or disconnets or something. will there be a quitality then?

 

[Jordy]

kung jin = kobra
takeda = darrius
cassie = kira

most epic fails

 

[DirtyLary]

SHIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTT

I lost.

Should've panicked earlier.

 

[Demon_0]

SHIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTT

I lost.

Man, you were really close. Well played this time. As 16bit also pointed out a few times, you need to play more patiently and especially watch out for Derek's wake up game. He tends to do wake up attacks 8 out of 10 times. Next time, just keep your distance more often which will force him to change his wake up game.

 

[Angelllll]

Really? A bow and arrow variation where he equips a blue arrow which stuns on hit? Not a copy paste. Zatanna's Ring projectile? Def not.

Ur a worse trololo tan me

 

[KleenexGhost]

SHIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTT

I lost.

It was over when Derrick picked the top qt.
Good fight.

 

[ragnar0kz28]

Takeda Top Tier, Jesus.....

I was about to say that the second variation they showed looks very good, probably going to be top tier

 

[Montanx]

I didnt notice until today the "Easy fatality" command on the pause moves list. They were just hold R2 and press square, tri etc. Have we talked about that?

Huh, didn't even notice that. Wonder if that's gonna be in the final version.

I would pay money to erase Kung Jin from my character selection screen
