Please don't call it techno as it's actually a well defined genre in its own right. It's a bit like saying the Beatles were a heavy metal band.
Didn't think the music was too bad myself, but broadly speaking I believe orchestral tinged electronic stuff would have been a better fit.

I was wondering if this was a direct sequel of the reboot.
Because we lost a lot of major characters there.
I kinda liked the song, haha.
I thought that would be the angle they approached it from but it appears not to be the case. Noob got knocked into the soul tornado thing, which maybe broke Quan Chi's sorcery or something. It could be another brother (which I doubt), or some other weird storyline in which the old characters are brought back by Shinnok or something.
Hopefully they have upgraded UE3 to the same state as Arkham Knight [afterall Rocksteady also makes games for WB].

As long as it's not in the game I'm fine.

It's a staple of video game forums unfortunately.
they have already heavily modified the ue3 engine to get 60 frames out of it (on consoles). i think it was modified so much, that it barely resembles the original ue3 code.
I didn't mind it either. Should have thrown some 2 Chainz in there for good measure.

I think the trailer is bad. Mind you, I'm not generally a fan of fighters or Mortal Kombat in particular but uh, some, by today's standards, mediocre CGI battle between the usual suspects with quite frankly laughable music choice, eh. The 'get over here' stuff may still be considered a cool aspect for fans I guess but that's in like every 3rd trailer of theirs anyways.
By the way, even this CGI fight lacks fluidity similarly the way the actual MK9 game lacks it to say Street Fighter. I was never a fan of the fighting 'physics' of that series though.

Damn, even in CG, it looks hella stiff.

they skipped leg day
Sub-Zero looked kind of like a zombie in the teaser. Might sort of make sense, since Cyber Sub-Zero died in MK9. But maybe the pale skin is just a cryomancer redesign.
I don't like the music either, but I find it weird that people are even talking about it. Rap usually fits fighting trailers. You always get rap in Fight Night, UFC. If you think about it, it's far less cheesy than the original MK theme that no one had a problem with.
I never once made a comment about the music in the Phantom Pain trailer, even though it sounds like a Celine Deon track.
I don't get it, if this is not direct-feed gameplay...then what was the point of this trailer? If the gameplay isn't exactly the same or better than what was shown in this trailer, then it's not going to be an acceptable product in my opinion, especially with this being next-gen.
Has anyone confirmed with the devs via twitter if this was direct gameplay or not?

so was that cg or in game? the camera angles and effects make me think it's cg, do we know?
Its confirmed CGI. MKX is a crossgen game that will run on enhanced UE3.

When I first saw this, I thought there was at least a chance it was in-game footage from the next-gen builds.
It's not, so why the hell would they bother making a CG trailer that's just Scorpion and Sub-Zero fighting?

Why is Sub-Zero human? He was transformed into a Cyborg in MK9, unless this was just a concept trailer
Warner Brothers has too much money.

I think the point is to say "Hey MK fans! We're in an official, funded dev cycle. Stay tuned." I'm not expecting the game to be beyond wireframes at this point.
It's being shown to the public next week at E3.
It's probably already had a year of development time.

going with cgi, there's no way that's real-time
It's giving a false representation of the game though. We're in the next-gen consoles, so in theory, when I see this trailer, excluding the scripted scenes, the actual fighting looks legit, so if the actual gameplay is not exactly like the fighting scenes, excluding the scripted scenes, what was the point of this?
I'd also like to know who said it was CG, and where is the source? I've checked the twitter accounts of the devs and I've yet to see a tweet confirming this.

Weird that a 2015 game is cross-gen.

Just put some genetic war drums in there- done. Fucking simple.
The relevance of E3 just isn't the same, it isn't as important as many think.
Then FFS, we have no idea what this game is really gonna look like, and if they show anything at E3 and it doesn't remotely resemble this trailer, then what a waste of time.

I'm surprised it hasn't already happened. Perhaps in the next Mortal Kombat when they upgrade to using UE4?
