On the other hand, if they did do a MK2 scorpion costume everyone and there mother would DL the stupid pack and you could actually play ????? online, so that's a plus, in a really stupid ass way.

But my mother wants aerobic Sonya and backward cap Stryker, so she's boycotting any download that doesn't include them.

:p

Kinda weird mileena is so low, shes a really good character, reptile is also kinda low, lowest ninja anyway.

Also liu kang and raiden are only that high because it counts story mode, and the shao khan fights super inflated the list.

I guess, though I still see a lot of Raidens online. It's hilarious though, out of all the Scorpion players I don't think I've ever played a single good one. He's like the Ken of MK9.

wouldn't be surprised that in a diverse audience of people if theres enough of a percentage that doesn't want to be playing with a character that has almost no clothes on, especially in front of their girlfriend/wife, siblings/family, etc.

Very true. I'm just now trying out Scorpion since the demo and actually pretty tricky for proper play. Online Scorpion is total flowchart:

Scorpion noobs playing like the above chart are serious lolz.

I main Scorpion myself, and if I ever uppercut after a connected spear, I would stop playing.



Just sayin'.

So I was playing as Barakka and just fought a Scorpion who kept mashing the standard XXX/squaresquaresquare combo. I could block him, but I literally couldn't do anything else. There was no way to poke out or anything. What am I supposed to do there?

You should be able to duck it and poke or uppercut after the third BP. Maybe it was bad input lag or Baraka really sucks that bad.

I really, really hope they don't leave it out to put it in the fourth character's pack. That would be lame

Its free, they are likely going to be more palette swaps. Perhaps it could be MK3 male ninjas (and if so will probably be Ermac & Rain). Theres likely going to be at least 2 more dlc costume packs which will include the rest of the MK2 male/fem ninjas, MK3 male ninjas and probably a few popular requests like MK3 Sonya, MK3 Stryker and MK1 Kano.

I'd be really happy if those were all the costumes they released and that was it.

I can't wait for Rain! ahhh. Where is his Vs. pic? Everyone elses came out before they were released. Most likely will want to swap Smoke for him.

I understand that some people get tired of the ninjas but personally, I care more about the skill set and a character with Earth powers would be pretty cool so I'd welcome Tremor.

Guys, no matter how hard I try, I just can't get "GOOD" at this game. I was cleaning up the CPU (I guess that's no huge feat though lol) but I just can't hold my own online.

Is there a beginners guide or tips or something? I'm usually so good with fighters, but for some reason not this one =/

How do you check which version you are running? I heard pressing some triggers on a certain screen?

Also, shout outs to TYM for their Season Pass contest. I won a code!

Congrats. :p
To check the version, go to:
1. Options
2. Gameplay Options
3. Inside Gameplay Options, press: R1 + R2 + Triangle on PS3 or RB + RT + Y on Xbox 360
4. Version number will appear right next to 'Gameplay Options'
5. Pressing this buttons will reset all the options in there, but going back and not saving the new options puts them back to how you had them.

Seriously. After spending so much time trying to learn Cyber Sub with mixed results, I pick up Raiden and it's like "Oh, I guess people don't know how to defend against 334."

Who do you play as?

No1 rule is offensive, offensive, offensive. Normals do chip damage and that makes huge difference compared to other fighters. Mixing up combos from jumping punch is also big deal. Rather then jump in and do a short combo, don't finish it and start a new string to make opponent guess.
