Obviously teleportation is a huge factor in scorpions combat style, but using it for navigation would likely be disinteresting unless used in clever ways (like in portal), but then you run into puzzle solving which I don't think would suit the brand OR the character
But that's the thing, Scorpion uses his spear only for combat, and he teleports to get around. It would be silly to see him trying to use it to get around when the common sense player would say "Why doesn't he just teleport?"
It's a bit of silliness that would just, quite simply, kill any immersion as playing a Scorpion game.
I could see it working if the game would just have him teleport in cinematics to get around areas if it followed a linear path. But you'd need to scrap the spear-swinging idea and just have him run/walk from point A to point B killing people in between. A typical mindless beat-em-up.

The world is cruel. And the only morality in a cruel world...is chance. Unbiased. Unprejudiced. Fair.

Uhh I don't think continuing mkVdc is such a good idea after Injustice. Other than patches for Injustice, I may to see shaolin monks 2 followed by mk10

... Scorpion only uses ANYTHING for combat because he's only been in fighting games, other than Shaolin Monks (where he couldn't just teleport everywhere. Huh, fancy that). Come to think of it, he used the spear to pull himself up from knockdowns in MK
, so why would it be unreasonable to assume he would pull himself toward objects/locations or as a tight rope to walk on?
Your idea of the common sense player doesn't seem to have common sense. So you're saying that you would pay money for a game that, since the character CAN teleport, only requires you to teleport to the final boss and kill him? Because functionally that's what you're saying. So if that's the case, MK9 was stupid because he could have just teleported in and killed everybody in their sleep.
Suspension of disbelief suits storylines, also suits gameplay. NO player wants to just teleport from room to room fighting enemies. That is tedious. Same goes for shooting. You know how exploration and world building have led to immense critical and commercial success for titles like Uncharted, breaking up the monotony of shooting galleries? I'm talking about the same thing.
Kung Lao teleports. Why didn't he just teleport to the boss chambers in Shaolin Monks? OH YEAH! Because nobody would have fun with that. He teleported in combat only.
I'm glad you're not a game designer.

People are asking for MK vs DCU 2? LOL... enjoy your toned-down violence, gore and fatalities guys... Seriously, MK should make a crossover with another equally violent fighting game, like Killer Instinct.
To me, I'd say more Injustice support, even more than MK9. DC has this HUGE selection of characters that would be awesome to see in Injustice, compared to MK9's characters who pretty much got thin after MK4. So I hope that they go all out and release even more characters for Injustice.

MKvDC2 will pretty much never happen. Both sides have to compromise far too much, and it just doesn't feel like a real game. Injustice looks amazing, and the last MK was fantastic. I'd love both series to continue and to never intertwine.
Also, why are so many people clamoring for a horror-themed fighting game, with the likes of Freddy Krueger/Jason/etc? That just sounds stupid and campy.

Saving the whales-an agenda for some. Nuking them sits well with me.

The fighting game I've been waiting for since my days at the arcade... Marvel vs DC.
A fighter with mechanics like Injustice, and a roster of characters consisting of both universes.
It'll never happen, but man would that kick ash.

Mortal Kombat 10 all the way.
But I'd LOVE to see a MK: Shaolin Monks 2 at some point.

A Dynasty Warriors like game set in the MK Universe.
It's so obvious i want this to happen since Ps2 days i mean they always tried to include weapons in the MK games and here you could really use em.
The Generals would be the Main Characters and basically all of them already have army's to command Tarkatans, Shokans, Zombies, Cops, Monks, Cyborgs all the Ninja Clans etc.
With Brutalitys as super moves, Fatalitys against the bosses, Zombie/Cyborg Horses ...
Just imagine blowing through hundreds of enemy's and hacking them all to pieces with body parts staying on the ground and rivers turning red.
Ideally it should be a Ps4 launch title so it would look better than the Warriors games and with most likely no other game like this available at launch you have a million seller.
Make it happen NRS

I want continued dlc/patch support for this for awhile, they dont need to keep making a new game right after another, I love mk9, but it could have had so much more dlc that made it so much better, I cant say if I would rather have injustice 2 or mkvsdc2 or mk10 atm, ill have to play this game and see how it goes, but they should put more dlc into this game than they did with mk9 imo.
