Pretty sure Unreal Engine was part of the reason Mighty No. 9 and Sonic Boom on Wii U were insanely broken.
I know that’s the Wii U, but still.
Yup. That’s totally possible. Sure.
Or they could save 2 years and just do what they’re doing right now.

People are really pushing for ultimate’s…
It’s starting to get “I want eyedol or riot” levels of annoying now…

Well, that’s only your opinion. I personally see nothing wrong with how Shago’s ultimate is handled.
Then maybe it would’ve been better if you had said something like “I’m not an advocate for getting ultimates like Shago’s where they are half done.”
It sounds like you’re trying to represent someone else’s opinion when you put in a quote like that. At least it sounded that way to me.
Sorry if I offended you.
Ok… last post for me here. On topic… I would rather have a sequel but either way Im fine. Im not a fan of demanding Ultimates either way.. black back ground or perfect back ground. A new game can allow both to work better as it would be built to work from the ground up in all stages.
So would character customization and local vs Xp profiles.
But if there is a Season 4…Im fine with that too.
Either way… eventually there has to be an end to KI 2013 and a new beiginining.

I always got the sense that ultimates were higher on the community wishlist than Eyedol. I could be wrong, though, because I’ve never cared too much about either.

Yeah honestly my opinion of ultimates is almost the same as my opinions of Eyedol, except with Eyedol they have more that they could have done and affect the game. Unless the ultimates are Pokken levels of eye candy, they’re just not worth it IMO.
I agree that there has to be an end at some point, as the game can’t exactly be tourney viable if it has 70 characters or something crazy like that, and it’s virtually impossible to learn all of the matchups for your main. I’m also assuming that it’d be a nightmare to balance as well.
But if ultimates are the main argument or even a large part of an argument for a new game as opposed to season 4, I kinda have to question that logic. Not saying people are entitled to their opinions, but I mean… It’s a fatality. Sure, it’s another way to end a match and I agree, they could potentially look really cool.
But even then… I get tired of MK’s fatalities after the third or fourth time I see them. MKX’s were so over the top I barely bothered with them at all. Now, obviously we won’t have that issue with KI, but still. We already have an ultra and an ultra ender as well as a few stage moves. Why are ultimates such a big issue for people? I’m not bagging on anyone that likes them, I’m legitimately curious.
As for season 4 or new game, I’d much rather have season 4. Yes, a new game down the road would be great, especially once Scorpio comes out and once we get through the first wave of it’s games, which I tend to doubt will be massive step up over what we have now.
Once devs really know how to harness it’s power, then yeah, I’d love to see a new retail KI sequel, built from the ground up with the best engine available in 2018 or so. At that point, I could see there being some type of real, tangible graphical upgrade between a game like that, which would release probably in 2020, as opposed to them starting on a game now that comes out in 2018 as part of Scorpio’s first generation.
Of course, that’s all speculation. But I think waiting a bit longer creates a greater chance for more positive returns down the road (yikes, what a hedge lol).
But even more than that… I think that this is a great game. What we have now. It’s fun and the gameplay is fantastic and I love the characters and I want more of this particular world. Could everything be better in the next KI? Sure. But I don’t need that right now when I so thoroughly love what we have now in 2016.
So yeah, more of this, please. Season 4 would be awesome. Much like they polished the stage graphics for season 3, I’d love to see them polish the character graphics in season 4. From Orchid’s face to character’s hair to some of the season one retros. I’m sure they could find a good number of things that are either lacking or even solid, but could use improvement and make them better and I’d love to see that.
I also think that the UI, while certainly better, could also be improved, specifically in the “fight on” screen as well as the in game fonts.
But again, all of this stuff surrounds an ultimately fantastic product. I’d rather see them both expand and improve upon what we have here than simply scrap it all and start over with a game that may or may not be better, with characters that might or might not make the roster, and content delivery system that may or may not ensure the longevity of the game the way this system certainly has.
Stage ultra on all stages and Annihilations instead of ultimates
New adventure RPG game or call of duty/ division style game with KI characters
God I really worry that a season 4 will just end up killing Killer Instinct :[
The game is starting to get bloated from strapping so many things on top of the original Xbox One launch toolset. I would much rather they switch to a new engine (ie: UE4) and rebuild some stuff for the Xbox Scorpio launch. I’m fine with them reusing a lot of old stuff (ie: Hitboxes).
Sequel would actually be best. The game came out in 2013, as much as I love KI the game visually isn’t appealing. I mean the partical effects are godlike but the animations and graphics are outdated. A sequel with improved visuals, audio, etc. would be welcoming. Not only to us but give the team a break from year round work for each season.
Though, that’s just my opinion.
I’d rather see a fourth season and a potential remastering of the game at a later date.
If you release a sequel people will just beg for all the content we have now until it looks like the exact same game. Might as well just improve upon this and use it as a platform for more DLC like costumes, stages, etc. When the time comes to stop making characters work on modes, mechanics and cleaning up the rough edges.

Pleasantly surprised to see season 4 has the most votes I usually see more comments from people saying they want an entirely new game.
I voted sequel. Main reason, bigger budget. Which can finally give us the real story mode we’ve been asking for.. also a real arcade ladder with a boss fight type of ending, and the last boss should have some modifiers that switch up playstyles for the players… Also make it M-rated so the dialogue can be more adult, and the ultimates and no mercies, stage ultras and humiliations don’t have barriers or limits.. in my opinion we Dont need to wait for next gen for a KI Sequel because we will run into the same problem as this one in the beginning… Another console war, trying to sell to different markets, and have limitations because other countries can’t play games that are mature.. not just even with Gore, but dialogue as well.. if we do get a season 4 we don’t need no more than 3 characters, one eagle, and two original, but Eagle should be saved for the sequel. IMO. Ultimates and no mercies would be too cheesy for this version of KI and honestly won’t do it any justice… If there is a season 4 just give us more costumes, more accessories, stage ultras for season one stages and stages for Rash, Mira, and Eyedol.. plus three characters I mentioned above…so my vote is for sequel.
I think I would prefer a sequal.
Updated graphics, updated gameplay, including Ultimates, new outfits, more new characters, no more Arbiter or Raam. And hopefully a good and proper Story Mode for ALL characters!
