All MK games have had some sort of story mode in them, including this one.



Don't know why everyone is so excited about this MK, it's the same Shit Kombat since MK 4 with an AI cheap as shit.

Do you mean really ALL MK games or just the newer, action-adventure ones? I don't remember any story mode in MK2 or MK3, only a MK movie that tried to give meaning and depth to the violence Laughing

There was story in every MK game, even MK1, 2, 3. It was usually played when the game was left alone and no koins were inserted. It was usually a silly exposition about the general story behind MK and the characters. But all these games have had a canon ending.

The story starts at Mk1, then goes to 2 en ends with 3. But a couple things change allong the way. Won't spoil those story twists but if you know the old stories a little bit you will get suprised with a couple things. + it explains a couple of character origins like the cyber ninja's and such.

btw... mastering noob saibot isnt that hard. i tried him a couple of times and he has this cheap move with the shadow that tackles you. It's insanely fast and hard to block on reaction. And if the oppenent blocks you can follow up with a teleport grab. Did this a couple of times against a human oppenent, it's very effective i have to say (and cheap Surprised)

At least there the AI doesn't play like a fucking speed demon + cheap moves. 10x the speed and at least 2x the damage.

Not sure about the first 3 games, though iNatan covered that, but from MK 4 to this one every MK game had a story mode.
The only reason I took all that uber cheating AI crap in this games was because of the story.

Awesome game! Haven't played MK for such a long time in a while now. The X-Ray moves are amazing. Level of gore is totally amped up. The pre-rendered cut-scenes are a bit dull, in terms of animation I mean. The best part is the combos are simple to pull off and doesn't need a bazillion button presses to perform a combo. Heck even the Fatality is easy to pull off.

A few questions:

1.) Is there no Brutality or Animality option?

2.) What's the right time to perform Cage's X-ray move? It's a part of counter-attack right?

3.) Does anyone find the sound output of the game to be very low? I have to literally turn the volume up to more than 3/4 of my speaker volume knob, which usually is extremely loud for every other game and PC sound output.

1 - afaik no, the babalities are there though
2 - right before someone hits you

Would've been nice if they had included Hara Kiris - brutalities and animalities I can live without.

Yep , same here..I have experienced this with many games. I can adjust volume on my TV between 0 - 100 .. for PC - watching movies , gaming 10 - 14 is enough , most games on 360 15 - 30 .. but MK is the absolute winner .. it has to be on 40. Sometimes I forget to put it back lower and when I switch to cable my ears bleed.. Laughing

Any1 know why all that hate for Sub-Zero in this one ? Main Menu uppercut from Scorpion , Kratos reveal trailer , even on some gp videos .. then these figurines:

 Spoiler:
 


Is this explained in story mode cause I didn't played it yet.. ? And I never had a chance to play properly Armageddon and Deception..maybe it's something I missed ?

EDIT: I remember when Boon said his fav char is Scorpion..maybe it's just that.. Scratch Head

Yeah, but at least there's only ONE Scorpion. Sub-Zero is a friggin' brand name, ffs. How many times has Sub-Zero been killed now? Always replaced by his brother, or his cousin, or another Lin Kuei member >_<

HAH! See what I mean? Don't get me wrong, Sub is a great character - but come on! All that's missing now is a Cyborg Sub-Zero (and if the Lin Kuei would have had their chance, there would be a Cyborg Sub)
