New info on MK7
Taken from trmk.com. Im pretty sure no one posted this stuff up here.
In the Kreate-a-Fighter feature you are given six pages of options in creating your custom fighter. Everything from nose size, eye angle, color of garments, belt, and even your own fighting style. But your own fighting style isn't just assigning a preset fighting style to character, but instead you actually get to assign every attack you can make and name the fighting style whatever you want to!
Another big feature that was elaborated further in the issue is the expansion of the new Fatality system. Now instead of just watching a Fatality act out like a movie or play, instead you will be able to control every step in the Fatality. You will be given a set allotment of time to execute various movements, some exclusive to your fighter, to decimate your victim. The amount of possible moves are not set in stone yet, it depends on how much they can squeeze into the game's memory.
Also they mention that the old Krypt is now going to be revamped and called The Vault now. Now you will not have to focus on one area of the game to unlock the Vault contents, instead content can be unlocked from all the various game modes. That means if you don't like Konquest, you could still unlock the hidden content via the Arcade mode instead.
Finally, one sad note is that the former mini games, Puzzle Kombat and Chess are not making a return in this game. Instead there is a mention of a new "strange" online multiplayer game that supports up to 8 players at once. I personally can't wait to see what this may be. I personally would love to see something similar to the MK Team's arcade multiplayer shooter game The Grid make an appearance.

RE: New info on MK7
This new fatality system sounds pretty cool. I remember back in the day when we had MK2 & 3 fatalities. They were hard to pull off but when you did one it was rewarding. In fact a little interactivity with them like MK2 Kung Lao hat toss finisher, you needed to move the hat to cut the head off. I liked that. although annoying sometimes cause you cant get unless you got perfect timing. And who could forget raidens extended shcoker fatality and johnny cages triple head decapitation.
Well with this interactivity, its gonna be a heck of a lot more in depth and thats something thats missing from the series; You need to work for your finishers.
I was just thinking that if they bring back the endurance round or the 8 player tourney like in MK2, 4 vs 4. I was thinking like say your raiden and for sh**s & giggles he gets his MK1 fatality back. The old lightning to the head and explode. Well you beat all 4 opponents and you do a finisher with raiden.
Heres my idea. Instead of just killing the last character you get the oppurtunity to kill all 4 AT ONCE!!!!!! or maybe 3 vs 3 for the sake of just having a total of 4 characters max on screen when you finish them. Just think: you input the button combination for the fatality then it shows raiden powering up then you only have so much time to input certain button presses to make it work for additional characters. Think of a shotgun...spread-damage. The lightning bolt goes from one guy to the other either killing them off one by one or almost like a chain reasction type thing were all 3 of em die at once.
I think if you take that basic blueprint it could work for other fighters like subzero for instance. He could do different freeze attacks to certain opponenants:
1)Freeze someones legs, go to next person(and they could have it like the victim is helplessly trying to fight back even though you know what the outcome will still be like.)
2)freeze someone completly, go to last victim.
3)touch someones head and freeze it, rip it off with spine and all. then grab it by the spine and toss it at the guy who is completely frozen.
Then go back to victim 1 and have his way with him.
There could be so many combonations if they tried to implement this into MK8 or even 7. Its almost like getting a bonus fatality depending on if you input the right button presses after the intial sequence. Thoughts?

RE: New info on MK7
so youre basicly talking about a multality/fatality? its like a multality kill multiple enemies all at once but you still execute fatalities on them individualy.
