Not boody and gory enough ?

[Kevin_Flick]

is just me or some one else feel the same ? i watched lots of mk 11 gameplays and i must say the fatalities and xray or fatal blown get more brutal and ye i feel hype about it too, but there's 2 thing keep bugging me, is the wounds or body damage during gameplay, i mean look at mk 9 during gameplay when player got hit few time or be shot, the wound on his or her body already appear clearly, however i did not see any wound appear or blood stick on character on mk 11(i mean if it does, u only can see like a scratch), well you can see it when u use fatal blown but i want to see it when character got hit by sword or be shot or be punched during gameplay, not like when i use fatal blown. Speaking about fatal blown well u might know as new xray system, well is gory and bloody but they removed the old xray system ...... hell no, i mean if those fatal blown were old xray system, damn i would already pre order the game, cause i bet u always want to see xray when player got full bar right ? not like random xray during the gameplay, but those are 2 problems that keeping me away from the game, im not buying it and that my opinion, so what do u think about the game ?

You have to make certain sacrifices sometimes to keep the frame rate at a constant 60fps and real time battle damage could be once such sacrafice.

You're also not going to see battle damage due to characters having way more outfits and customizations compared to the limited amount of outfits characters had in MK9.

Every character seems to have some kind of head gear in their customizations as well so even if they didn't do battle damaged clothing it would still be weird to do damaged skin for characters like Geras and Baraka's faces given that their masks would prevent things like noticeable brusing to the areas around their eyes.

As for Fatal Blows vs X Rays, the Fatal Blows have more variety than X Rays. With X Rays all you saw were moves designed to break bones and it started to become incredibly repeatitive and redundant seeing it between every single character. The Fatal Blows have more character specific elements to them.

ye, that's a shame, well i mean i do like various of gear for different character, but sacrificing body damage and wounds, it just well u know lose all of the tradition of the game cause usually, the game has to be gory and bloody, and wound or body damage is one of the most important thing in game. About fatal blown yeeeeeeeee on second though i would be agree with u, seeing bone being smash all time could beeee a little bit of boring when u see too much

I don't know that I would call the body damage tradition. It was only first introduced in Deadly Alliance (MK5) and continued through to MK9, so MK5-9, but just like with MK9 there were few alternate costumes and MK5-7 only had face damage. Damage from the neck down wasn't introduced until MK8. Only MK8 and MK9 featured full body and clothing damage.

and mk x also, they try to be realistc wound damage, however in mk x predator got insane amount of blood spilling everywhere when he get hit

I've only been talking about why the body/clothing damage doesn't appear in MK11.

Regardless blood and gore has always been a part of MK so it's easy for people to talk about it in the context of MK. If someone brings up something that's never been part of MK or that doesn't improve the gameplay, story, or add anything of any realy value to the game then people are going to react negatively towards that idea or state how the idea makes no sense.

MKX uses texture overlays like blood, sweat/water, and dirt. Similar to what DOA5/6 does. It doesn't do damage like MK8 and MK9 do where the clothing and body is deforming.

hmmmmmmmmmmm true

You want more gore, but there's threads out there asking for a reduction of it...

I guess you just can't please everyone...

The damage model in MK9 was way overblown. 2 hits to the head and your character's eyes were poping out of their sockets. Some bruises and teared clothing would be cool but nothing over the top. Fatalities and Brutalities are there for that purpose.

TBH, the preview build they used might be a late alpha or beta that they haven't yet optimised effects for.

Graphical assessments are best made in the weeks leading up to a game going gold.
