@@The_V1PER22given what they had to work with and how many kharacters there where in this game. I personally think it’s impressive how well this turned out.
This game would've been cool if you unlocked characters super quickly like in Smash ultimate. Maybe starting with the base MK1 roster and working your way up
Funny thing about the MK Deception posters, they still appear in the stages files in the retail build. As well as some leftover assets from Deception such as the beta startup logo.
Not to mention on final version, it has a footage of konquest beta with Taven using bow and arrow. Lots of things was removed to final version. My childhood has been ruined when I notice it was beta only.
I was thinking the same I was so hyped when they announced every character in one game but they did way too fast the fatalities were lackluster and I clearly remember reading what Ed Boon had quoted about going forward in the gen consoles that he didn’t see goin into it with these characters he was looking to build new and fresh from the ground up
That stuff is what made the krypt so cool back in the day. One of my favorite parts of those games was getting the concept art. In those games they actually explained concepts and why they didn't pan out. Some even pointed out stage lore or objects you wouldn't notice during gameplay. It felt like they cared more about that stuff then. Today you just get some shitty picture with no explanation to look at for 5 seconds.
The Konquest cutscenes didn’t really go with it makes sense why they actually added cutscenes. The deception character select music still goes well here.
This game had so much potential if they mixed konquest mode with elements of deception and Shaolin monks like they were doing woulda been goat have 1 unique fatality atleast for each charcter and having every characters expet the bosses with 3 fighting styles would have been amazing I woulda waited for a few more years if that was case
If I am not mistaken, somewhere in Konquest gameplay before release was shown that Taven can take the sword with him everywhere, and you can see it on his back. In final build there are only some beat em up moments with weapons only for those situations. And If I am not mistaken, my PS2 MK Armageddon box cover had screenshots with Taven with his sword on his back, and I spent years thinking, how did I miss sword in Konquest...
I think in the bell tower stage you could uppercut the enemy to the death trap during the fight, and in the final version you can only uppercut him when the fight ends.
Nice bro! I did the same thing during quarantine since I didn’t have a PC yet. I did Konquest all over again in Deception and Armageddon. It’s just awesome
if i may ask how did you get such clear footage of MKA for the final build versions ? everytime i try emulating it on pcsx2 it doesent look anywhere near as good
My PCSX2 version is 1.6.0 (you can download that version on their website) Renderer: Direct3D 11 (Hardware) Adapter: it’s your graphics card so click it Interlacing: Automatic (Default) Texture Filtering: Bilinear (PS2) Internal Resolution: 4x Native (1440p 2K) or 3x Native (1080p) Anisotropic Filtering is off (default) Mipnapping (INS) automatic (default) CRC Hack Level Automatic (Default) Date accuracy is off Blending accuracy: Basic (Recommended) Enable HW Hacks and click advanced settings and hacks Click disable safe features, fast texture invalidation and frame buffer conversion. I also have PCSX2 v1.7.3603 but that one runs a little off so that’s why I use the old version cause it runs better on some games.
...they didn't. Taven only uses the "prayer" in Konquest when he wins. He will do Shujinko's victory pose in Arcade/Versud modes (Daegon also does Shujinko's winning pose.)
Would have been cool, but it would go against the story they planned of Armageddon being a game where alliances are broken and it's every fighter for him or herself.
This what I think,they needed take one year off,make fatalities for everyone if it’s create a fatality then every person should have unique animations for ending,unlock characters always was fun to do
1 more year and this could've been the best game in the series. Great game already but it was too much for the short period of development.
Indeed. It’s probably cause the PS2 , XBOX, Wii, and GameCube we’re already outdated and the PS3 and 360 we’re already rolling out.
they could have made PS3,WII XBOX 360 versions instead
Can you imagine Armageddon on the PS3/360?!?!?!?
@@CharlesHitmanStone yes

Unlocking the characters would have been so thrilling as a kid
same
I wouldn’t have minded having the deception character select music again it is so damn good. Thank you for this video
Yea me too. Deception had one of the best soundtracks
As much as I prefer the Deception select theme, so many people would be bitching about them for being lazy and not making a new theme.
This was a incredible trip down memory lane and amazing history in this. Thanks for this. Loved it.

that woulda been fucking amazing
Still my favorite mk game! Sweet memories from the past
Mine Too!!
Great game
@@kanethesevenfootmonster868 Kane também gosta de MK Armaggedom
1:33 maybe this is the reason why there is an audio announcer "Noob-smoke" which is not used in MK armageddon.
Funny how the original character select screen got reused for MK9
Those are some nice differences, thanks for making this video!
great video. I really wish they would release a collection of their older games.
Same
With remakes going on with games today. I’m surprised this hasn’t happened yet!
I rememeber the hype for this game, good times.
Yea I remember watching the commercials in Spanish when the game was first revealed lol
@@The_V1PER22dang how old are you
@@johnoz2284 I’m 23 atm
@@The_V1PER22 oh same. I never had the opportunity to see this on tv or the hype.
7:28 Was that a flame sword? They should've kept that in. It looks awesome and fits his character too.
Yeah, that flame sword is in the final game only in the konquest mode.
sektor using kenpo looks very sus
My favorite game Mortal Kombat since Mortal Kombat 1 ❤️ . I love watching beta and final,solve mystery, cut content
Funny thing about the MK Deception posters, they still appear in the stages files in the retail build. As well as some leftover assets from Deception such as the beta startup logo.
if they only hold this idea for 2 years. imagine mk armageddon with mk vs dc graphics, and the cinematic story mode?! damn it would be fire
the early character select screen look cleaner
It did their should of been two options for that
Not to mention on final version, it has a footage of konquest beta with Taven using bow and arrow. Lots of things was removed to final version. My childhood has been ruined when I notice it was beta only.
1:29
Shao khan, goro and shinnok are playable character in demo version
You scan see more of my E3 2006 footage used in this video on my channel, sort videos by oldest.
Oh yea I remember your channel way before I made this one!
I was thinking the same I was so hyped when they announced every character in one game but they did way too fast the fatalities were lackluster and I clearly remember reading what Ed Boon had quoted about going forward in the gen consoles that he didn’t see goin into it with these characters he was looking to build new and fresh from the ground up
VERY COOL TOO MY FRIEND
Absurd how better is the Deception music instead of Armageddon's one.
2:28 sareena is playable on psp? or it's a mod?
Idk why but when you play with unplayable characters she will always show up. I forgot to turn off the cheat lol
1:38
Before MK X, there is random select in this game (i never knew that this series have random character select)
Video Starting 0:14
I think Taven still uses that old win pose in arcade/versus mode. I know that prayer pose is exclusive to konquest mode
He doesn’t he still does his prayer pose
Mortal Kombat always makes me anticipate new features, just the blacked out characters would keep me up at night as a kid
A dead era smh
When Sektor had only one of his pulse blades during the "Build" he could use it in Fatalities, too. It can be seen in his Kombat Card from Armageddon.
I was expecting in the E3 Footage of the Konquest, more like the greatest preview gameplay you can see in the Krypt.

@@wwfwrestlemania2000in mkx, they do explain tho
I love how it still uses the Deception music and Konquest cutscenes.
The Konquest cutscenes didn’t really go with it makes sense why they actually added cutscenes. The deception character select music still goes well here.
@@The_V1PER22 I agree
2:28 so does this confirm that Sareena was supposed to be in MK Unchained?
It seems or it just a mod for deception
I wonder if the build can be obtained
Ed probably still has it
When Mortal Kombat was on it's prime
I’ll say yes and no
This game had so much potential if they mixed konquest mode with elements of deception and Shaolin monks like they were doing woulda been goat have 1 unique fatality atleast for each charcter and having every characters expet the bosses with 3 fighting styles would have been amazing I woulda waited for a few more years if that was case
1:34
Who is the guy beside millena (not sektor) ?
That’s not Mileena that’s Sareena and that’s a create a fighter slot
Oh, sorry and thank you
7:42 taven is have this same winning pose as shujinko when he win in arcade
Music is Mortal Kombat Armageddon - The Armory theme btw
If I am not mistaken, somewhere in Konquest gameplay before release was shown that Taven can take the sword with him everywhere, and you can see it on his back. In final build there are only some beat em up moments with weapons only for those situations.
And If I am not mistaken, my PS2 MK Armageddon box cover had screenshots with Taven with his sword on his back, and I spent years thinking, how did I miss sword in Konquest...
Yea that was a very early build of the game. Basically alpha or beta Konquest gameplay. It’s in the Kyrpt of Armageddon. During the E3 it was removed
Fact: The ????? ?????? in the E3 demo was the Motor Kombat Mini Game Option, it was probably before that Racing Mini Game was announced.
i actually kinda preferred the Original select screen. Did it seem more......epic?
I think in the bell tower stage you could uppercut the enemy to the death trap during the fight, and in the final version you can only uppercut him when the fight ends.
The music for the game was fire
The armory ost, I like a hella masterpiece
Thank God my PS2 still works - I can still play all three 3D MK games, which I do ❤️❤️❤️
Nice bro! I did the same thing during quarantine since I didn’t have a PC yet. I did Konquest all over again in Deception and Armageddon. It’s just awesome
That's amazing!
Can you do a video about the original konquest that was shown in the promo material. Taven would always carry a sword on his back and a bow and arrow
Kinda wish Sektor had Choy Lay Fut.
The stance for Kenpo makes him look kinda girly.
Are you ever gonna do one for unchained?
Entonces Sareena estaba pensada desde el inicio?
I wish noob smoke would’ve stayed tag team characters lol
Would’ve been cool if konquest mode allowed you to walk up to characters & talk to them like in deception
if i may ask how did you get such clear footage of MKA for the final build versions ? everytime i try emulating it on pcsx2 it doesent look anywhere near as good
Really? Let me get home first and I’ll put the settings down in this comment again.
My PCSX2 version is 1.6.0 (you can download that version on their website)
Renderer: Direct3D 11 (Hardware)
Adapter: it’s your graphics card so click it
Interlacing: Automatic (Default)
Texture Filtering: Bilinear (PS2)
Internal Resolution: 4x Native (1440p 2K) or 3x Native (1080p)
Anisotropic Filtering is off (default)
Mipnapping (INS) automatic (default)
CRC Hack Level Automatic (Default)
Date accuracy is off
Blending accuracy: Basic (Recommended)
Enable HW Hacks and click advanced settings and hacks
Click disable safe features, fast texture invalidation and frame buffer conversion.
I also have PCSX2 v1.7.3603 but that one runs a little off so that’s why I use the old version cause it runs better on some games.
That’s cool if this is how they demoed it so much love to mk4 and 3
So basically we would have to unlock all the characters in konquest
Basically yea like Deception. Honestly I wouldn’t mind at all. It was fun and rewarding when you found a certain character you love
@@The_V1PER22 the remade deception I got to play it I live stream it
Glad they changed Taven Win Stance, its Much Better Now..
...they didn't. Taven only uses the "prayer" in Konquest when he wins. He will do Shujinko's victory pose in Arcade/Versud modes (Daegon also does Shujinko's winning pose.)
In main menu you can still see the deception poster
For some odd reason the beta version looks better than the final build version. I dont know why.
🙏 2 GOD That NRS Goes Back 2 this again @ Mortal Kombat 12
Would be cool, but it seems MK11's Aftermath Story could see MK12 do another reset.
The should have given all of them unique fatalities as well as the create a fatality
Would be very interesting if they could find this demo
Ed boon probably has it lol
Kobra and Kira are too close in this demo
2:29 Sereena for MK UNCHAINED? WTFF
Ikr I want to know the source of this 😭
@@fofitohi1504 Yeah me too man
It does that for some reason when you play with an unplayable character. Idk why but it does lol
Huh the beta character select looks a lot like MK9s roster box.
Noob Smoke should of been a team still lol
Would have been cool, but it would go against the story they planned of Armageddon being a game where alliances are broken and it's every fighter for him or herself.
I agree they should kept but no because Ed boon added everyone what the hell man 😒
What mean tag team?
In Deception, Noob - Smoke were one character but you can switch each other out
made with windows movie maker
Lmao no it was KineMaster5
Deception was better than Armageddon tbh
I agree deception is still my all time favorite game
The ???? Was motor kombat it spells it out
Yea but nobody knew at point
This what I think,they needed take one year off,make fatalities for everyone if it’s create a fatality then every person should have unique animations for ending,unlock characters always was fun to do
a bloated mess imo and the fatality thing just shows how rushed this thing was.
This game was terribly rushed. I wish they had taken their time.
and move to next gen consoles
MK Deception has better graphics than both versions sjsjs
There should be 4 kharacters and 2 stages
Kharacters
Scorpion
Sub-Zero
Sonya
Sareena
this game was a piece of shid anyway,every character had same combos but diffrent specials
E3 2006 Build was so trash cause The Final Building was so much better
Scorpion
Sub-Zero
Liu Kang
Taven
Sonya
Sareena
Kitana
Cira
Oh...
