Because it's random which one you'll fight when you begin the ladder...?

fair enough, just wondering if there was another reason behind it.

Nope. That's pretty much it. :P

Does Skarlett have an extra costume that can be unlocked?

[jswartz0181]

Not that anyone has figured out. There was one in her leaks a while back, but that was when she was incomplete. Now why the final version doesn't have an alternate is beyond me, especially if she had one already. I'd say maybe it has to do with all those who occupy those bottom corner spots, but Kratos for the PS3 has an alternate, so there goes that idea. Hopefully in time we'll get her alternate after all, and more importantly, hopefully the future DLC won't have the same thing going against them.

Edit. I figured it out.... You press start!!

And if you press again instead of after choosing your outfit, you'll get the Player 2 coloring (Sheeva's outfit as blue instead of red, as one example). I actually think I do that more than using the defaults. Just a shame you can't get CSZ or Skarlet's P2, since they don't have a second outfit to be able to bring up the outfit select to begin with.

Wow. I actually never knew that! haha
I prefer a lot of the player 2 skins (like the red Johnny Cage). Thanks for the tip.

And his black suit alternate is so much better than his blue one! Most actually look better P2. Anyway, glad I was able to help.

[comfy socks]

Very nice and well made.

This might be a stupid question, but is it better to do fatalities with the d-pad or the analog stick? Sorry for the dumb question.

It's really a matter of Preference. If you're used to the Analog Stick, use it. If you're used to the D-Pad, use it.

When I was using a Controller instead of my Stick, I used the D-Pad Personally, but that's what I used to play MK in the first place.

If you mean what input is for stage fatalities, it varies with kharacter, and the ones I can remember that have stage fatalities are.

The pit.
The pit (night).
New York city (where the cars plummet into the river).
Acid chamber (there's a pool of acid in the background with corpses hanging over the pool).
Clock Tower (I think).

EDIT: Subway and Netherrealm have stage fatalities too.

You can always tone the difficulty down for Story mode (in the options setting), I didn't have a problem with any of the 2 against 1 battles.

[Hektik2123]

OK thanks for the info

[Hektik2123]

For the achievements for do all the fatalities, throws and X-ray moves with each fighters, do you have to do it with the DLC fighters also?

No, just the 27 main characters (that includes Cyber Sub Zero and Quan Chi).

[sonicmark]

I have a question, will a 2 vs 2 match with 2 controllers count as acquiring time for 4 kombatants? (because I just bought a second controller).

[jswartz0181]

No, because it's time for one player, while two controllers is two players.

I've played through story mode once already.. but can you skip cut scenes at all? I might play through the story again just to get more Koins.. but having to watch all the cut scenes again adds so much time! Thanx if anyone knows.

No you can't and you only get about 10 koins per match after your first playthrough.

Have you got all the extra koins IN the krypt?

you mean in the necropolis? yes, the extra 20k.. guess I need to get working on the challenge tower

[jswartz0181]

Actually..... you can. It just isn't skippable right away. After a few seconds, pressing (I believe that's what it was anyway, as it's been a while) will take you right to the start of the next fight. Likewise, doing so during the opening will take you right to the first fight too; again though, you just have to wait about 10 seconds or so.
