Liu Kang's "Epic Beatdown" Gameplay Trailer

I guess in this video we get a glimpse of how the story in the game will be told? Looks to be a lot deeper than I thought they were gonna do. Looks so awesome.
 
Omgosh that was a freaking badass video!!!! I KAN NOT WAIT TILL MK9 KOMES OUT!! I LOVE HIS KOMBOS TOO!!! This is the most epic video I seen. Thumbs up NRS. He is going to become CHAMPION OF MORTAL KOMBAT!!!!!!!!!
 
Haters gonna hate. I'm really not getting the gripes about Johnny Cage's alt...like his character ISN'T an action movie star, and he's never had a tuxedo alt before.

Oh, I explicitly remember him wearing a tuxedo.... in the very games THIS game was helping me forget.

but now theyre ruined because he sounds like an ewok from star wars

He sounds like he's got his face buried in a pillow while making whoopi sounds. He even makes sounds for Scorpion's moves when he's teamed up with him. Watch and listen to the video again! It's ridiculous! lmao

I'm not liking the un-polish on his character. His fireballs don't look like they are in the same fight as him and his opponent. There should be fire particles bouncing off of the opponent when he hits them. Some semblance of them being hit would be nice, like a burn or scorch mark on their body, maybe a puff of small smoke. I almost can't even tell he hit them.

yes! it's like thanksgiving has come early! gobble gobble wobble! wahhh! i'm acually digging this kang. i like his look and his gibber jabber. good job mk team!
 
I don't know why you people are complaining about his battle cries... Have you not watched videos of Bruce Lee? Are you annoyed by his battle cries, too? I feel this rightfully fits Liu Kang's character.

I don't know how I'd keep living if I was disappointed half as much as many of you, here. It depresses me just to see your persistent complaining! Your pooping all over everyone's party!

Keep it coming, NRS! You're doing a great job! And, for the other positive members on this forum, thank you for keeping the peace and fueling the excitement!

We are not saying we hate his battle cries (at least, I am not), i loved his battle cries from the former games, but they sound weird now. He sounds like hes from Return of the Jedi. Theres no screams like there were in the original games, he sounds like an Ewok talking to Chewbacca.
 
Man seriously, you guys need to get off of Liu Kang. He actually sounds good. Have yall not seen Bruce Lee in his movies? Let us all be glad he actually has his damn so kalled, "turkey voice", back in MK and not komplain about. Thats all half of the fanbase does. Kome on now. Kan we at least just make the best of it without komplaing?

I agree, the Turkey Voice was pretty awesome in the previous games, but now he sounds like he is purring instead of doing intense, fierce screams. They do need to fix his screams bro, I want the same Liu Kang I loved from the previous games back.

We do, but ten times better! And yes I do like the old screams better. Let us hope they do fix it, if not, then lets just get use to it.
 
Here is my opinion of what should be done: (Just another idiotic opinion you will think, but let me know if you agree)

Thin out his face, in fact.. thin out every character. Less is more, I'm telling you. I would have been more excited to see basic slim cloth ninjas. Steroids and WWE are not cool (except Jax). For liu, Think bruce lee with long hair.. He is still cool.. and so are old ninja flicks. Also, please fix any bad sounds in general, not just liu's.. the announcer is nowhere near as confident and dark sounding as the mk2 and 3 announcer. The sounds in this embody "trying to hard' just follow in mk2's footsteps. The vibe of the fatalities and xrays are excellent, and that vibe should be passed on the every aspect of the game.. even the sounds. The gameplay looks great. I hope someone is reading this that can make a difference before release.

It's like the designers are modeling liu kang in the image of themselves. Thin is in!

also, please add screams that make you go wow.. like in mk2.. they sounded like genuine screams in that.. think toasty scorpion fatality. in this they sound like voice actors portraying screams.. The sounds arent bad, but not amazing either. Still excited though.

Please get trent reznor to do the music. I think he would embody the vibe of mortal kombat well.

Eh, this is probably too much to ask for 2 months before release ha. I watched again, I guess it is fine the way it is. Pretty excited, I imagine once I actually play it, all worries will fade away!
