Very obviously cg.

I almost forgot how much internet people hate rap, lol. Just because you don't like something doesn't make it horrible. Whether you like or dislike the dudes lyrics or flow is one thing, but outright horrible? Lol. I thought the music itself was nice, but they could have left out Wiz rapping over it.
Absolutely no chance. They're still working on Killer Instinct content. Why would they bother with MK?
What's wrong with that? Seems a lot of people think it's not a good song and/or doesn't fit. There's not a lot there to talk about with so little info in the trailer.

I know I'm in the minority but I felt that the music matched the trailer. I'm hyped for it. I just wished it wasn't joining the overly crowded 2015 roster.

In favor of setting Muslim women on fire
its pretty possible
if The Order can look as good as it does, i think a 2D Fighting game can look like this
IGN thinks a lot.
If it was announced that..expect Babalities performed everywhere...
- Running is back in?!!
- Supers/EX moves
- Stupid generic jumping kick is back
- Environment destruction(something like KI)
- Character specific or stage weapons
- Stage intractables
- XRys are back
- Scorpion's fire-y attacks make me think something similar to I:GAU's traits
- (Shocking!)Fatalities are back

Surprised people think this might be Xbox exclusive. They have Killer instinct as an exclusive fighter and it stellar. They'll also have this, Street Fighter, Tekken and Virtua Fighter as multiplats.
Why would they lock down MK? Seems pointless.

Yeah totally didn't see a post like this comingWell, certainly one of the top contenders for the worst music (if you can call rap music) in a vg trailer.
Well, that's kind of what everyone's saying, isn't it?
Rap is fine, but it a) doesn't fit the actual trailer and b) Khalifa sucks ass.
Either keep it instrumental or get Tech9 or Necro in there.

Well, actually Tekken series is #1 with 42 million sold. http://www.joystiq.com/2013/09/19/tekken-revolution-downloaded-2-million-times-franchise-to-date/
MK was at 30 million as of 2012 I believe. But that's impressive considering it has zero presence in Asia.
But this isn't a current gen exclusive. It's already known that this will be on PS3 and 360, and there is no way those will be capable of this.
Also, I was secretly hoping they would go back to live action actors. Even though that would never happen, it would have been fun to see in HD.

Cross reference with https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0NSgxPpJjLk, you'll see how they make their CGI chars move. At any rate, they're janky and bad in the trailer but also too lavish to be in-game. I'll (happily) eat several barrels of crow otherwise. That is 100% CGI.

because specific segments look like it might be possible in-game, like when the camera zooms back to show both facing each other.
Even their CG trailers have clunky animations.
It looked weird didn't it? The animation just seems off.
kids will think it's hip

Assuming its legit, it was already confirmed by a poster in here that worked on the trailer that it's CGI. Always seemed like a concept trailer/target to me.
Lock down MK and you lock down most of the FGC and Evo.

Someone want to Twit-twat NS and sort out this CG debate once and for all..?

OMG looks amazing, and one can use the environment for one´s advantage.
How do any of us know that you actually work at NetherRealm?
I mean, I strongly think it's CG, but I don't think some random person with no credentials claiming he worked on it is really a definitive end to this argument.

The CGI vs Gameplay debate reminds me of that CGI Dishonored trailer that was actually quite representative of the gameplay, just with a visual upgrade.
There's things in this trailer that look a lot like an actual game. But then there's all the different camera perspectives flipping around that undermine that.
Or at least, I bloody hope so. If the camera moves in like that every time someone does a special move it'll be distracting and disruptive.
Still, the visuals argument is important because if Netherrealm have created an engine that looks nearly that good, you can count on them using the same engine for story cutscenes, something I found worked really well in MK9 and to a lesser extent Injustice.
Lastly, with the branches and sword it seems environmental hazards are back. I'm fine with that so long as they are blockable.

Anyone noticed the concept gameplay seems to be kind of counter-heavy? Like DOA counter heavy?
MK9 was close to SFIV vanilla but it only had a year, I'm sure lifetime sales SFIV has sold more since it's had 4 different retail releases.
Didn't COD: Ghosts also market itself as taking advantage of next-gen despite being cross-gen? Publishers market cross-gen games like this all the time.
these cg trailers are never produced by the developers, they are outsourced.
