New MKX Gameplay Preview Video From German Magazine PCGames.de

I need to find that one picture with the timeline where you are currently between Jesus being born and right now.

Edit:

That picture is so horribly inaccurate as far as time goes. It's rustling my jimmies.

 

[G4S KT]

LOL that commentary is too funny.

And no P1 advantage, rejoice!

What do you mean? The Big Bang is older than 4000 years?!

Ugh. Now I have to money match you. ugghhhhh

 

[kabelfritz]

Hahahahahahaha! These guys seriously have no idea what they are taking about!

Very sad that they allow non-fighting game players to review a game like this if its a major magazine in Germany.

thats basically what whole the german fgc/"nrs community" outside tym is like

 

[STB Sgt Reed]

They changed the ender string though

Btw in the latest Machinima video you can see new combos. If the opponent gets frozen from a clone you can use Ice Ball in the combo and get a double freeze.

I just hope he doesn't have the same limited combo potential he had in MK9.

Yeah the Stone Age and Big Bang should be closer right?

It's a shame we can't see the hood in this video, because it was the one that showed the best gameplay.
Oh, and trades had already been seen in one of the E3 videos, I believe against Ferra/torr and Sub-zero or Kotal Khan.
Sub-zero seems to have that "ground pound" move even when the ice clone is not there, Kotal Khan can summon totems mid combo... Really cool stuff.

The most important takeaway from this video IMO is that the standing resets mb grabs leave you pretty much at neutral frames which makes sense.

 

[VenomX-90]

I thought MK was banned in Germany? since they dont like the violence...

 

[kabelfritz]

kotal kahn looks like a hype machine. These combos!

MB grabs leave you at around +12

lol at Frame data Analysis from Launch Trailers. i like it

Paulo said that in the stream chat on the OBS.

 

[STB Sgt Reed]

Also, Sub has a high low mid it looks like. Sweet

 

[kabelfritz]

do you think mkx is gonna be full of resets/vortexes? Looks like it to me...

 

[SHAOLIN]

Them Scorpion combos!

 

[Name v.5.0]

Speaker 1: are there relevant new gameplay elements?
Speaker 2: not really. you can pick from three fighting styles before a fight now. so you can use one move against a certain opponent while against another a differnet style is better. but its sad you cant change it during the fight but only before

Ummm, I'd say there are several new gameplay elements. These guys are fucking morons.

 

[Notez4]

Im happy, it seems like every characters neutral jump punch is Personalized. Aaaaand scorpions looks epic. Would've liked to see some more detailed Ferra torr combos though.

[CrimsonShadow]

Inb4 threads are made asking for P1 advantage back because it's Mortal Kombat tradition and it's always been that way -- or because trades make MK too much like Injustice/SF.

 

[TheSpore]

Finally I felt like I watched actual players kicking ass in the game.

 

[NobilityV3]

Translation:

Speaker 1: friendly guys beating up each other... the new mkx was shown at e3
Speaker 2: i was able to see some gameplay and sadly gotta say im a bit disappointed. i hoped for a bit more but this seems like a mix between the predecessor and injustice.
Speaker 1: so game mechanics are more old-school, kinda fast but not as tactical
Speaker 2: exactly. i couldnt play but all the stiff Combos as seen, background elements you can use as weapon or swing from branch to branch, thats all stuff thats in injustice and pro players wont like it
Speaker 1: are there relevant new gameplay elements?
Speaker 2: not really. you can pick from three fighting styles before a fight now. so you can use one move against a certain opponent while against another a differnet style is better. but its sad you cant change it during the fight but only before

Sounds like a typical SRK fanboy conversation.

 

[Trini_Bwoi]

Those Scorpion combos!!!

 

[KH StarCharger]

I seem to notice that there is no real emphasis on any scrubby wake up mechanic in this game. That along with the trades, lack of P1 advantage, and all of the other shortcomings that MK9 had is keeping my interest. (along with 60 FPS of course )
