What a fine game for fans.
I already bought the game but if I didn't I'm sure I would do it again.
But Meat over Khameleon?

Doh he said not to ask why. But that is honestly the only thing I really want to know. I mean I highly doubt they simply forgot her. I even if they didn't like her I dont think it would be enough reason for them to cut her out totally. I mean im really just trully curious as to the reason she wont be in this or perhaps any more MK games. Especially as she is the only person left out.

Well to stay on topic i'll just say yeah that sucks about Steve Irwin dying but it was kind of expected sooner or later. Just surprised it was by a Stingray of all things.

i don't understand why we can't ask why. we are the fans, and we are buying the game, right? so don't we have a right to know why midway mislead us?

oh, and cinder, that pm you sent me. i have no problem with reading comprehension. the reason i ask you to give some sort of explanation is because i feel that you are our connection with midway. you sometimes have exlusive renders and other material about games far in advance of their release. and while i am thankful that you share this with us, it leads me to believe that you have some sort of connection with midway and could at least ask them (if in fact, you do have connections) for some sort of explanation, considering this thread had originally gone to 108 pages (about 95 of which were on topic thoughts about khameleon).

but yeah, whether cinder likes it or not, i think it is right for the fans to demand an explanation as to why khameleon is being excluded from mka. midway (as well as others) got our hopes up by leading us to believe that khameleon would be in mka. then this news was a cold slap in the face.

i feel i am speaking on behalf of many loyal mk fans here. i was one of those kids shelling out quarters to play mk1 and completely ignoring street fighter. i have bought every mk game. the original, 2, 3, umk3, trilogy, 4, gold, special forces, mythologies, shaoling monks, mkda, mkte, mkd. i'm a hardcore fan and i can't wait for mka. but i am a little disappointed that khameleon won't be in the game, and damnit i have every right to be. we all do.

And I still believe she might appear anyways as a secret hidden character. Do you honestly think they would tell us all the secrets of the game before it is released? Everyone is so quick to think they lied to us about every character being in there, but many of you don't seem to think they could be lying to us about her not being in the game. So, don't be so quick to judge the MK team, they might surprise you.

I 100% agree. We deserve an explanation at least. If this this is true (I'm still hoping this a cruel joke Boon and co. are playing on us, but who knows) Then as loyal MK fans, it's our right to know why. Only then, can we feel a little bit better and cope with it.

the reason why is simply because boon and co. did not want to live up to what they stated. "Every MK character to ever throw a punch in an MK FIGHTING Game". Khameleon was/is the only character that should be included based on these words.
Now Midway will have to live with the fact that they came soooo close to creating the perfect fighting game, and now they are sooo far away simply because they left out ONE freaking character.

Well, I'm still going to hold onto the fact that she'll be a secret character for MKA. Cinder told us over and over that Lui Kang would not be in MKD, and he was.

Game will still rock like none other, but it will not be complete, ever, unless Khameleon makes it in.

fLoOn

Ok, I accept the fact that Khameleon is not in Mortal Kombat Armageddon, but I have my opinion to share here. Here it is:

- When you have a game like Mortal Kombat Armageddon, where every fighter will show up and where you'll have 64 Kharacters to play as, it must be tough for Midway to get that game done in time. But think about it. Just ask you these questions. When Ed Boon and the rest of the MK Team had a general meeting while constructing Amrageddon, they surely discussed the Kharacters issue. Here's an exemple:

---------------------------------------------

Ed Boon: Ok guys. Good morning hum, we're here today to talk about the Roster for MK Armageddon. So we announced that every MK fighters will be there right?

Programmer: Right, but we have a problem. With the programming logic and the different reactions of a characters, we can't make Motaro. He has 4 legs and it would need much more time to get him work.

Ed Boon: Ok. Any suggestion? Should we get him out of the Roster?

Programmer: I still think the fans would like to see Motaro back Mr.Boon. When we look on our Midway board, all we hear is questions about him.

Ed Boon: Can you make him on 2 legs?

Programmer: Well... yes... Bu...

Ed Boon: Ok. Let's make him a storyline where the Centaurs becomes Minotaurs then.

Programmer: But sir, every will say 'OMFG THEY RUINED MOTARO!!!11'.

Ed Boon: We have no choice. It's that or he won't get in the game.

Programmer: Sir, we have another issue.

Ed Boon: What again?

Programmer: People wants some super secret unlockable in there.

Ed Boon: Which one? Like Goro. Like I said in an interview. Fans can now play Goro. That was never done before!

*Everyone thinks: He's crazy or what? We could play as Goro in Trilogy, MK4, MKGold and MK Deception... What's wrong with Ed?*

Programmer: Well no. Goro isn't a super unlockable sir.

Ed Boon: Yes he is, for me at least...

Programmer: Right. The fans want Khameleon, Chameleon, Meat and Tremor.

Ed Boon: Tremor? Who is he?

Programmer: A character from Special Forces.

Ed Boon: ROFL he's not in the game...

Programmer: He was never in MK fighting games anyway. But what about the others?

Ed Boon: Who are they again?

Programmer: Khameleon, the last female Raptor. She's in search of Reptile to recreate the Raptor race and take revenge upon Shao Kahn for the destruction of Zaterra.

Ed Boon: Ok.

Programmer: Chameleon.

Ed Boon: You just talked about her...

Programmer: No, Chameleon with a 'C'. Well, he's basically a male version of the girl Khameleon but he was no storyline. He was just a filler for Trilogy. So basically, Khameleon is already set because of her storyline.

Ed Boon: We'll see... The other one?

Programmer: Meat. A bloody skeleton from MK4. No Story, no character, just a skin.

Ed Boon: Screw you! I love meat! Put him in the Roster with wrestling skills. I need meat humm... I'm starving. Anybody want to come with me to buy some ham at the store? That meeting is so done ROFL...

Programmer: But Sir, what about the two chameleons?

Ed Boon: Put the man in the game. Screw the girl.

Programmer: But Khameleon is was more important storyline-wise. She's crucial to Reptile's story too.

Ed Boon: I want to eat something. Put the male Chameleon in the game!

Programmer: May we include both since every fighter are in Armageddon?

Ed Boon: Not the girl.

Programmer: Why? She's the only one that will not be in the game sir... And Meat is not a character. Plus we have a +100 page thread on the Midway with fans request that want her in...

Ed Boon: Now shut up boy. I prefer meat and that Khameleon will not be in the game LOL. Now you pay dinner.

Programmer: Shi...

Ed Boon: PWNALITY to you and fans...

-------------------------------------------

A meeting happened for sure, not that one but a meeting happened. So ask yourself from a business point of view. Why would MK Team let Khameleon out of the game when everyone else including Chalemeon and Meat are in?

Ask yourself that question seriously.

Facts:
So we, either Midway can't say that MKA will have all the Mortal Kombat characters. Because only Khameleon misses. You can just say that MKA has many characters. Khameleon not being in the game is a huge disappointment.

Monster and Tremor aren't MK characters. Tremor wasn't in a fighting game. Monster is a monster from MKD. In his lifebar just read "Monster" because they had to fill it by some name.

sad

fact: khameleon not being in the game is a huge disappointment.

now of course i'll buy the game. i'll love it. i'm very thankful for ed boon and the men and women on the mk team for this game.

but at the same time, they left out ONE character. that's it. so close to being complete, but not. and this character played a huge role in my boy reptile's storyline. wtf?
