We've all been there: you're getting your ass absolutely whooped by someone's super powered Scorpion, and the temptation to unplug your router is strong. While fighting games like Mortal Kombat X can be brutal, there's nothing worse than finding your rhythm – only for your opponent to rage quit. Fortunately, the folks over at NetherRealm have come up with a solution.
Should you quit during a match, your character's head will explode, and your rival will be awarded an immediate flawless victory. This is known as a Quitality, and while it may not be as ostentatious as the various other Fatalities in the game, we can certainly appreciate its addition. Better not even think about "tripping over" your Ethernet cable, then, eh?

Brilliant idea
They should have had an animation of the quitting character having a sulk in the corner
But it doesn't matter much, right? Are there any consequences, stats to loose?
Stomping to mush while they sulk might be better.
@BLPs usually to be sure that I get offline I turn off the router, drop it in the bath of water, burn building then kill everyone in my town. Because with these new wifi speeds you can never be too sure /s
@Bad-MuthaAdebisi Haha! There can never be enough stomping in MK.
@BLPs I would also vacuum my neighbours downstairs just be sure the dust doesn't travel with convection And yeah I almost never play online, so it's an exaggerated problem Also, c'mon sometimes it's just equally funny to get your ass whooped with style by a good player
Great idea, however NetherRealm still have not responded to my question... "Will MKX be region locked online the same as Injustice was" It seems no one can answer this and it will impede my purchase until I find out.
That's pretty funny.
@KomrathDE LOL best comment ve read all year LOL. kill every in my town Hhhhhaaaa...... aahhhhhh black humor
@Gmork___ you know, in case there's peer-to-peer
It's not only good idea but a funny one at that. People who rage quit will still do it anyway because there is no penalty. I wouldn't be surprised if they do even more and then boast about it was self-inflicted. The should just call it "suicide!!"
I like it. But my internet has occasional meltdowns, due to the unreliability of the company in the area. Hopefully I'll switch to a better company sometime this year.
@NomNom I'm in the same boat. Comcast kept calling my family asking us if we wanted them to redo the connection so our connection speeds would be "faster." We knew it was too good to be true so we turned them down. A couple weeks later they gave up and just slashed the cables out back and blamed it on the router we bought to avoid renting one from them...and in the end they got their way. Did I mention they got us a new modem that can hardly stream video? Must be a new way for them to compete with Netflix.
@KomrathDE i think it's better like that
