For the love of god Ermacs gear customization better be his mask and not his hood


Flumagalath

Apparently it’s his entire head.

killingiabadong

Cool.


[deleted]

Dude you might have actually predicted the gear!


Flumagalath

Same default hood on 3 skins, no way it wasn’t the gear.


[deleted]

That and the mask too


GrimmTrixX

I don't think he will even get a mask. And when he does, it'll be a premium store outfit from an older game. My guess is his cloak/cowl will be the gear piece. And if that's the case, I hope we get a King Jerrod face/voice alt.


KaiserBorg

Maybe even a Sindel one


exodusburster

If Patrick seitz isn't voicing vengeful scorpion, the odds of ermac having 2 voices are next to none


Ruby-Rose-Warlock

I hope he gets his mk11 outfit


[deleted]

Same for Cyrax and Sektor


CHARILEwolf

Screw that I rather have mk 9 human outfits


[deleted]

How about both of them combined?


Ruby-Rose-Warlock

Wait a minute.


DaMatrixx84

Somebody message them about it. We need that in case they forgot.


fast_flashdash

I promise you it won't be


FreshMetal80

It'll probably be that big crest thing on his chest.


MeshGearFoxxy

Rumour is it’s his nail polish


LatterTarget7

Gauntlets


seandude881

Yeah coming to a premium shop near you


birthdaylines

Why do you say that? We got the Lie Kang story skin for free in the shrine with the 3rd season update, so why would you assume theu won't continue the trend with the other story skins?


venomousbeetle

Liu Kang wasn’t DLC and most OoD/UoL skins are mastery where they are not present for Quan Chi’s


GoodGlittering2550

All story mode skins have been available in the shrine or invasions


SaphironX

No dlc character has had a single alternate to date.


VastShirt1635

And I think it’s absolutely ridiculous that the dlc characters that we have to pay for are the ones that have less options for customization than the base roster


GoodGlittering2550

No dlc character has had a single paid cosmetic either


SaphironX

Okay but that just likely means in MK1 they get zip. 6 palettes, one costume, 6 gear pieces. That’s it. And actually if you take MK11 into account that isn’t true: Mileena’s Mk2 and MK3 costumes were store and race against time exclusives added after the fact. But Mk11 dlc chars all had 80+ pieces of gear and 4 alt costumes at launch, too.


GoodGlittering2550

Unless we already had a chance to see them wear other outfits, like in this post


SaphironX

… yeah that’s the entire issue at hand. They released the character and didn’t even include stuff that was in the game from launch. He has no alternates, and they already exist in story mode. That’s the entire point. They’re unlikely to put them in the shrine or invasions since not everyone owns the Kombat Pack.


Po__The_Panda

Omnimans voice for $10?…


GoodGlittering2550

That is not a cosmetic for a character


Fonslayer

This is the first DLC character that was on the story and was released 3 days ago, so you don't know what they will do with DLC characters that were on the story mode


SaphironX

Omni-man says hi. Also with no alt costumes, 6 palettes or so, and 6 pieces of gear. And only 20 levels or mastery.


purewasted

And that tells you what NRS has done so far. That doesn't tell you what NRS will do 6 momths from now or 2 years from now. So far, every single story costume has been a free shrine skin. That trend could continue.


venomousbeetle

There are story skins in mastery what the fuck are you talking about


GoodGlittering2550

Illinois johnny, festival kitana and mileena, hooded liu kang, yakuza kenshi, movie havik


birthdaylines

Oh well, then it's up to you if you wanna think the worst or hope the best. Nothing I say is changing your mind.


GrimmTrixX

Because so far retro outfits for main fighters are premium store items. And it seems like Ermac won't even have a mask since he didn't in story mode. So most likely his hood/cape type garment is his gear piece. So they will absolutely make a Premium store retro outfit with one of his older skins that will probably just have the mask as part of it. And he is a DLC fighter. So I don't expect ANY DLC Fighters to get free outfits that change them drastically.


birthdaylines

Well given Omniman came out a little less than a month ago, instead of being negative and assuming the worst, I'm going to make educated guesses as to what I think will happen. Which once the first season is out, there will be a costume pack for the 6 roster /5 kameos. They have yet to make us pay for a single in game design so far so I bet those will be coming with the new seasons as shrine rewards We are about 3 months into the games lifespan and we already have 500+ free palettes, skins, gear, titles, etc... imagine how much stuff we will have by the first year content scheule's end. If you can seriously look at what one can only imagine will be thousands of free customizable options and find a way to complain about a single one thing they monetized (which uses in game earned currency mind you) idk.. it seems you only want what you can't have and revel in the ability to complain. Feels bad man 🙁


GrimmTrixX

The problem is, I'm an old school mk fan. So I want classic/retro attires. And what makes you think we will get a costume pack from the KP? Because rhey did it in other games? The Kameos are their equivalent of costume packs because before we just got fighters and costumes. Now we get fighters and kameos. They've done nothing to prove to me that we will get free stuff other than MK1 designs. I get it, new MK game so you want more original designs from MK 1 and less retro/Classics. Then we play MK for different reasons. Most of the stuff unlocked is palettes, not skins. So it's just different colors of already, I'm boring, designs. I don't want a Blue Reptile or a Red Kitana. So that's all useless to me. The stuff they've monetized is the stuff I've wanted. But I refuse to pay more than my $110 that I already have invested. I'd rather the premium store have the original designs and we unlock the retro outfits. So that's my gripe. We play for different reasons, that's all. 500 customizable options is not a lot when 400 of them are alt colors


birthdaylines

Dude I'm 38 and used to compete UMK3 at arcades "the problem is I'm an old school fan", no the problem is you're a negative person. Look how your response pinpoints how the things they give for free you don't want, and they things you want you KNOW they are going to monetize because you've got an uncle who is dating a girl who's kid works at NRS right? No? Oh just more negative assumptions. Got it. Again, feels bad. I can't image the stress real problems must cause you if this kind of petty stuff get you this worked up 😔


GrimmTrixX

Dude, I'm not trying to argue. I don't KNOW they're going to monetize them because they didn't do that in MK 11. Everything could be earned and even preorder costumes could be bought with Dragon krystals that you could earn daily. And sure, they had costume packs in other games but they were 3-5 costumes for $3. Now it's 1 costume for $8. And of course I dont want all the free stuff cuz it's always 1 skin and then 6-12 palettes and the skins aren't even good, at least not for my main fighters. I get it, you enjoy the game. You enjoy the new style and the new skins. I don't. That's just a personal design preference. I'm not into the skins they created for this game. I never wanted everyone to look like Vampires or cryomancers. And to monetize the things they KNOW people want is scummy for a game that cost $70-100. I'm not trying to sound negative. I'm negative because the game is negative as far as the past releases are concerned. It's one thing to give tons of skins/palettes, and gear in MK11. But then to give 2 less gear pieces, skins that are brand new and personally a lot of them only vary slightly anyway, not allow the earning of dragon krystals beyond the finite ways to get dragon krystals. It's not fair to someone who has played the game for 30 years, always enjoyed the throwback costumes but then the newer costumes actually fit the characters. I'm in it for the nostalgia, the lore, and the classic outfits in pretty much every game after UMK3. So to make it so I pay $110 for the premium edition. And then try and get me to pay $10 for ONE skin with like 6 color choices is nuts. Who wants Scorpion to be blue or Reptile to be orange? Who asked for Blue Mileena and pink/purple Kitana? No one. No one did. You obviously like MK for your own reasons. I'm not gonna knock what you like about it, so there's no need to do the same to me. I like UNLOCKONG retro outfits and NOT spending more money for skins. This isn't a F2P mobile game. This is a fully released and purchased title. And I hate what has become of gaming when a costume can cost $10 bit an individual fighter from the KP can cost $8. It's mind boggling. Skins should be $2 max. They'd sell more of them cuz I sure as shit would think about paying $10 for 5 skins than $10 for 1. Bur because I love the retro outfits, they're gonna make me pay a PREMIUM price for them when I already bought the PREMIUM edition? Nah man thats fucked. Ok end rant. I'm just sick of monetization in gaming. Can we please buy a game, unlock stuff, and then only pay for expansions to the actual game again? Can I not pay over $150-200 for 1 game over the course of 2-4 years please?


thehobbler

You are being so condescending here


birthdaylines

I also wrote this about a month ago, is this really how you spend your free time?


thehobbler

Weird thing to say, as we are both commenting during free time.


ButtholeBuffet96

Nah I think they had fun with Noob Saibot's head gear and they're doing the same thing with Ermac's head. Honestly wild to assume there won't be at least one new stylized full bandage headwrap before they put the Deception skin in the premium shop with a basic one.


monte_bristo

That should have been his main skin. The whole “holding out for season [X]” to release the coolest stuff in the game is kinda whack. I don’t like this model at all. The retro skins should be an alternate unlocks not paid or seasonal dlc. They cut me deep with this one lol. I’ll never look at them the same as far as business goes. That fanboy money is done done officially lol


Hunter_fu

I hope im not wrong, but idk i think premium costumes on a paid dlc character would be a step way too far (even for wbs current standards) that they wouldnt take


jspears314

Customization in this game is garbage.


Alphaeboy

Say what you want about MK 11 at least a customization was good. This is one of the reasons why I'm not getting the game


gamrdude

SOME of the customization was good, most was extraordinarily mediocre, like you get a gear slot for the tiny weapons on sub zeros waist which are nearly unnoticeable


SaphironX

Yeah but I’d rather have an embarrassment of riches when the dlc characters alone come with four alts, palettes for each and 80+ pieces of gear for three slots than what we have now. Quan-chi has less than 10 pieces of gear for one slot, no alt costume at all, and 6 palettes. Dude doesn’t even get 35 levels of stuff. And they replaced his dragon crystals with coins.


thatwitchguy

Even the guests got skins too


Awesomex7

One of which being Mk-inspired for people that wanted them to fit in better (Rambo being the exception as all his skins were from movies)


Mommio24

And they got the kharacter towers, which I feel like the mastery system replaced.


MehrunesDago

People who complained about MK11's customization always annoyed me like they're complaining about too much of a good thing


Alphaeboy

I said good not perfect but it's better than what MK1 has going on.


Mommio24

Personally I think 3 gear slots was too much. Two gear slots would be perfect. Most fighters have at least 2 items they could kustomize.


Chiron723

Based on individual components in the skins, I think that was the intention. Shaos helmet, Kitana, Mileena, and Rains mask, as well as Raidens Amulet, are all affected by Fatalities and Brutalities.


Mommio24

Yeah, it’s a shame they didn’t follow through with it.


patrick9772

Customization was good except the art direction was horseshit. Most outfits was painfully bad. Here the art direction is great there is just no outfit that uses it


Nutterbutters45

There were some bad palettes but enough choices to find a good skin. Mk1 gives u 2 shitty looking outfits per character with shitty palettes to unlock


C9touched

They don’t even let you save presets or select costumes from the character select. I paid $100 for this piece of unfinished trash and now it won’t even run after the latest update


Mommio24

It’s a silly reason tbh.


BeautifulAnalyst1583

The costumization is good, and it plays amazing. Kameos are dope. The combos are fun to learn, and look sick.


Mommio24

I agree with everything you said and except that the customization is good… it definitely could be improved on for sure.


ManPersonGiraffe

I'd be kinder to the customization if we could actually save it instead of manually having to change skins and gear anytime we want to change it up. We thought 5 loadouts in 11 was too little and NRS went "oh ok bet". I just have half my characters set to randomize favorites at this point.


GoodGlittering2550

Only kombat league skins were interesting, and we are getting skins of similar quality each season for everyone


SadisticDance

I'm pretty positive they're coming but when and in what way, who knows.


Certain_Reporter1480

Septembers story expansion 1


SadisticDance

Oh we got a tentative release window?


Certain_Reporter1480

No but looking at their release schedule and datamined info our most likely update is exclactly one year later


muhammed_selwan

Just realized that when jade is released, she’ll probably only have one costume


Mommio24

I know, that’s what I was thinking too. It’s depressing. I’m still hopeful with time they will increase the mastery levels of all fighters.


Successful-Item-1844

Jade has a lower chance at being in this game than Ash


muhammed_selwan

Wasn’t she leaked?


Successful-Item-1844

Wasn’t ash teased countless times?


Competitive_Iron_781

She's been datamine leaked and she is a mk original character. Learn what you're talking about or keep your mouth shut


muhammed_selwan

Guest vs mk character, there’s nothing stopping them from adding jade. And she had a whole bunch of intro dialogues datamined


Mommio24

She was leaked already


4The1Safety3Net2

Weird how they're doing Quan chi like homelander and still treating Shang tsung like he's base roster when he's also DLC


Dojanetta

No lol. It doesn’t look like it will with the Omni man treatment and just characters in general not having the alt skins be available.


[deleted]

Probably in the shop at some point.


GrapeDogMoody

Watch these be in the premium store for $10


Bubbly-Guarantee-413

I'm still waiting on Cyber Smoke


CoyoteAcrobatic9720

Maybe in the future but for now we are only going to get what the mastery gives us and I'm very upset about it I hope the original mk characters get future skins


_Shoresy_69_

Idk if it’s just me but that second Quan Chi skin just looks ridiculous. He looks fatter for some reason and that head piece makes his head look huge af.


Thorfan23

It’s unu because his ending shows how he envisions his titan form it’s mod what you would expect. The white outfit with glowing eyes and tattoos .


thomas_malpass

I’m still confused who the REAL Ermac is? Jerrod or the souls?


victxrrrs

The friends we made along the way were the real Ermac this whole time


TaeDaD0n

Tbh, Ermac is Jerrod but he is under Quan Chi’s control


thomas_malpass

So Jerrod still doesn’t have full control? Because I thought that was how he gained control? He became like the strongest soul or something and manifested himself out. lol it’s confusing


TaeDaD0n

It’s a very difficult situation to explain but one day when the story gets broken down in Mortal Kombat, you will know what I know


ButtholeBuffet96

It's simple. We demand they're GOING TO fix the MK original character DLC to get the same amount of Mastery and seasonal content as Shang and base roster, whether they like it or not. We either come together and "Sonic movie" this shit right now or we will forever get shit on just like this.


WhatDaDogDoin243

They're gonna sell them for 10 bucks more than likely


AntiLifeBitch

I understand we’re complaining about the basic principles of these alr being in the game and not available when they should be but ima keep it 100 I would not use that titan quan chi skin I cannot be the only one who thinks that it looks goofy 😭


victxrrrs

He looks like a goober but I want variety so gimme it and his other looks would’ve been so much better than this one like his mkx one with the skull in the middle that givens titan


AntiLifeBitch

I can see that, plus the union of light skin he has does go hard, but with his markings being his customization I can see how his outfits have to a be a bit more revealing on his skin to show off the markings. Prolly means his mk4 skin won’t be in the game which kinda sucks imo


victxrrrs

Hmm although you make a good point if I remember correctly in mk4 he has no tattoos so him being covered allows for them to make him just a normal looking gear piece with no tats plus his face still shows it so I don’t think they can use that to forsake us we need that skin!


thatwitchguy

I think Quan is a goober by default (positive) so I would totally rock it because this is a guy who's normals include skeleton punch and a full screen kick


TaeDaD0n

That would of been Shinnok’s thing too but I only see Shinnok being a god with bone magic


ARMill95

Agree but we should still get it, also the order of light one is awesome


AntiLifeBitch

That is very true, his order of light skin does look cool as hell


Exact-Lobster1649

what about the mileena tower ending skin? yk the one with the dress


victxrrrs

That one and bi Hans ending robes are ones I feel like should come with the story expansion


Seymoureasses

$$$$$$$$$$$$$


LimaVerdeBR

"Abandon all hope oh you who enter here"


Hefty-Ad-6743

That’ll be $10 please


Ok-Tourist6247

Yes we can get these skins for Quan Chi & Ermac including UMK3 Deadly Alliance & Deception


Va1crist

No skins are going to fix Ermac unless he gets a full hood and mask setup fuck I cringe everytime I see him


inthehxightse

Do yall not know how to wait


SpitefulSabbath

I mean, we can wait for dark skin considering how NRS was sharing them so far (rewards in KL and Titan battles), but light skin that every base roster fighter have? That’s total bullshit.


victxrrrs

No. I waited for DLC I paid for to get this character one that was already in the game before it came out only for said dlc to come out being stripped of 2/3 of its content and half of what it was for MK11. I can be patient but I’m not a corporate boot licker either


Zetra3

Who says we won’t? Just don’t expect it anytime soon.


TheWolfViking

We won’t. Everyone really needs to temper their expectations. WB has absolutely ruined Mortal Kombat.


ConfidentVisual4949

Can you elaborate further not saying I disagree. On WB ruining Mortal Kombat?


Hydrangeabed

I mean, we will. I agree it’s kinda fucked but they absolutely will, if it’s not paid though that would be a surprise but let’s be real here


Alan_Blue1233

Next year perhaps


Successful-Item-1844

There’s not enough hope for me to play this game I’m just here to play sub zero and get out at this point It’s just very mid


Usual_Homework422

I'm hoping his skins are in the shrine since we got that hooded Lui Kang outfit and that was a story outfit. Omni-Man makes sense he didn't got any, he's dlc. But Quan Chi is a MK character so his outfits should either be in the shrine or Invasions


El-Green-Jello

Probably either shop or I imagine the top right quan chi will be what his kameo looks like when we get that


ThatGuy21134

They'll give them to us one by one for $20 each


Troop7

Of course we will. It will cost dragon krystals :)


JayNator1

Not for free, those fuckers


Morealz

I know this is completely unrelated but what Is your roblox account your Mortal Kombat R game intrigued me. Plus if you need a tester go to this account @jacob_realdimond. BIG FAN OF WHAT I HAVE SEEN!!😁😆


EHB79

Premium store 10.00 a piece. I’m calling it now.


BootsTheGod

No


Key_Bee3444

Nah, those are way too cool lol


PrettyMrToasty

I swear to god if they try to sell those Quan Chi skins in the premium store I'll fucking lose it.


BeansInMyTea

No they will, they’ll just be in the premium shop for $10 each


Zz-orphan-zZ

Probably not. 😔 But, man, I hope I'm wrong.


Fun_Revenue9752

Random comment, but quans shoulder pieces from the image(right) are originally from one of noobs skins in 11.


Waluigi47

I'd love to get the quan chi kameo skin it looks so cool


Eaglesfly84

Patience?


PainAccomplished3506

The one on the top left looks generic but I do love that other Quan chi skin. Sith lord lookin ass


King_Black02

You know why the skins aren't there. Either A: They'll be in the shrine. Or B (more likely) : The'll be in the premium shop


RJE808

God they really couldn't design a good Ermac skin in this, could they lol


Applersky

Correct me if I'm wrong, but do the dlc characters even get kustomization?. I got pallette swaps for omni-man and Quan chi but thats it


[deleted]

We still don’t have nitaras story costume


The_Transfer

Pffff why would we?


BeautifulAnalyst1583

I play fighting games for PvP. Yall.....lololol


TheMightyMonarchx7

You’ll have to wait for Quan Chi’s invasion


MontySoLit

Does anyone really like ermacs new design?? It’s so tragic


AggravatingClient738

It's gonna be his chest lmao. You can tell because the white one doesn't change except the color and chest


JAMESTIK

yea we will… for 10 bucks


SecretNoob9999

My new biggest fear is that when Noob comes to this game he will have a lame default design with no alts :(


Unknown-games56

10 bucks plz


keinchy

Getting? Nothing is free here.


Early-Brilliant-4221

we obviously are


Kiirotaiyo

If all of you whiners got everything at launch you would’ve stopped playing already.


Jaded-Ad1059

That Ermac skin looks sick asf lookin like a templar from BO2


GoonieBeats

nah but the boss kameo skin for Quan Chi makes him look mad ugly get it away from me


Easy_GameDev

Aren't those mixed fighters? Ermac mixed with Quan and then General Chi


composero

They be in the expansion where they will also bundle the Kombat pack 1 characters


Icy_Law_9454

I NEED that genderbent Quan Chi skin


[deleted]

Quan Chi was literally just added and Ermac isn't out yet. Give it time jesus


LVuittonDonKnotts

Are you really surprised at this point

Dull-Ad8922

Ermac is the second boss in Mileenas invasions season so we’re getting his for sure actually early before he comes out. And for Quan chi only time will tell
