Here’s the complete question and answers session from this week’s Killer Instinct Textual Stream…
Andodyne – Are all characters going to play into the same story or will certain characters have their own plotlines.
Kraig – Season 2 Story: Rivals, focuses on each character and their rival. This involves the entire cast (S1 and S2), though they all part of the same universe, obviously.
Cherry Demon Yung – Could you add more options to interact with your Shadows? I want to pet my Shadow Glacius on the head and give him food.
Kraig – So do I!
Wanda Maximoff – When will we see a push to get the game re-reviewed?
Kraig – That’s up to the press. Ask them about it!
Killer Ixmix – Are there any game modes that you are interested in adding to KI or are you done with new game modes.
Kraig – Never done with new game modes. There are so many things that we’d like to do. This season we focused greatly on Leagues, Shadows and Story Mode.
Cinder – What parts will cutscenes be used in? I assume it’s only for the beginning, rival fight and ending.
Kraig – You assumed correctly. And loading screen images too!
KI Prime: If IGS had known what it would be like developing the new Killer Instinct, would IGS still do it?
Kraig – Absolutely. We love this game and its fans! Really fun project to work on. We’re honored.
MR. X 2pi Iron Galaxy believes in the importance of a good story in a game of struggle to consolidate the franchise mythology and new audiences?
Kraig – I think that our joint KI Team knows how important it is to world-build and create a complete mythos around these characters. Adam Isgreen has been very consistent and upfront about that. This is one reason why we tried very hard to add content to Season 1 Story Mode and really flesh out Season 2 Story Mode more.
Rakdosz – Are we able to spend our Shadow Points on something other than challenging other Shadows?
Kraig – That’s the plan for now (That and leaderboard rankings) But the system is definitely extendable. What would YOU like to see?
Daz 3600 – Are there Achievements for Story Mode?
Kraig – Yes! Here’s the list:
Rivaled! – Complete Season 2 Story Mode
Savior of Humanity – Finish Story Mode With ARIA
Rising Sun – Finish Story Mode With Cinder
The Eternal Child – Finish Story Mode With Hisako
A New Destiny Forged – Finish Story Mode With Aganos
Appetite for Destruction – Finish Story Mode With Riptor
Lord of Chaos – Finish Story Mode With Kan-Ra
The Night Guard – Finish Story Mode With Maya
Back On Top – Finish Story Mode With TJ Combo
Another snap shot photo ending and things to read. Very bare minimal just to say they did it. This is the next gen fighting game right? Not all KI people want just the fighting mechanic. Instead of doing the ranking and the shadow and whatever else, how about putting in the same effort into the story mode, like actually making new backdrops, new movement, actually moving mouth to converse for certain characters.
And no, I am not at all asking for a MKX treatment. I am just asking for more than a lazy photo snapshot with a text like what we have been getting since season. If this is the case, then it is not at all giving a story mode. It is just doing the same thing before and calling it “done..we did it.”
They didn’t mentioned the story mode for the season 1 characters yet.
Perhaps in Season 3
Season 2 Story: Rivals, focuses on each character and their rival. This involves the entire cast (S1 and S2), though they all part of the same universe, obviously.
Literally the first answer.
Story for season one is already available you unlock the mural once you complete each objective for the respected character season two story will involve season one character’s a well s season two but it’s based on rivalries with Season 1 like vs season 2 is what it seems like
I just bought a new console also and love this game can’t wait until it’s complete with playable BOSSES at the end of story mode. Hope for easy danger finish moves too and maybe info to drop on where and what stage ultras are available. I’ve only done 2 TJ combos and the sand ultra on Anganos stage
I just moved so I currently have no…internet but my gamertag is Dedman 00 feel free to add if you like I enjoy making me friends on Xbox
Ultimates and No Mercy I guess will never come up because I have yet to hear IG hint or mention them.
I would love for these to appear and I would love it to start with shadow Jago considering hes the only one who currently has one
Kirby see a gay lol
@ Adan Cody stop whining like the bitch you seem to be and be thankful iron galaxy stepped into this project I’ve only played since season 2 began since that’s when I got my console and I’ve watched older videos of when double helix had this game and from what I can tell this game had gotten the love that it needed double helix had a general plan and then poorly executed it season 2 story seems more involved in a awesome way and stop complaining that you don’t have shadow jago yet they’ve got to build costumes, weapons, color schemes and a new move set and program it takes time I’m excited to see all the great things they have in store for the KI community (hopefully Tusk in a possible season 3 along with more new original characters) I’ve played KI since the summer of 94 and to see the game come back brings back a great sense of nostalgia for me and to see a new generation get to experience a complete reboot of the series makes me smile knowing that a great team of people whom have a passion for this game, the community,the old fans and the future of this game someone such as you to post such mindless incoherent drivel should shut your mouth and appreciate what they’ve done and currently doing and beyond you pitiful fuck
Ugh I not happy with ki3 right now because nothing when season two story mod I really piss off damn and hear nothing about boss shadow jago nothing when that sad fake ki3 ass
Overall really nice textual week for this week
