They have had talking menus before to a degree but it was for the main one ... think it was with Deadly alliance if I remember rightly or Deception. The hour is late so brain is fried.

They've never had talking menus in any of the mk games that I remember. The best that got was an announcement of the character you selected, and that's still there.
death_rattlehead, awesome... can't wait. Always wanted to talk to someone who was as crazy about fighting games as I was who is also blind... I'm not a tournament player, but have a desire to learn as many mechanics and workings as I can. Mostly just for my own enjoyment. lol

It existed for the main menu in Deadly Alliance to a degree ... not the sub-menus and such. The tricky part is that it would have to be in the accessible options section of the game so sighted players wouldn't have it on by default if this were done in future games. The reason I remember the menu for Deadly Alliance is the "Test Your Sight" and "Test Your Might" minigames that were brought back for that title. Also, Konquest was spoken but the actual mode itself wasn't.

Really? I just pulled out my copy of deadly alliance a couple days ago... and the only things that are ever said aloud other than the regular character and battle announcements are test your might, test your sight and whether you chose unwisely or wisely. I didn't find anything else being read... but I might have to pull it out and check again. lol

AstralAudio:
Does the menu talk when you select it by using the d pad, or does it be announced when pressing x or confirm to enter the menu? I have the older MK games for ps2 as well, but I only remember the menu being mentioned when you press X on the menu.

Death_rattlehead:
My guide which I'm currently working on is in the articles room on this forum. I'll hopefully add more to it this weekend.
It's so cool that you're still in touch with the developers. Maybe, if my guide gets so good as I want it to in the future, they would be interested to read it.
The STAR mode and tutorial mode isn't accessible at all, because that's only text, so you have to know what you have to do. However, it would be awesome to have all that written in text. I might be able to get help on writing the tutorial mode which would be pretty interesting, but the STAR mode, that would take forever! smile
Something which I really hope would be accessible in the future games they make is the stuff in the extras menu so we know what we've unlocked. There are not just trophies, but an insane amount of stuff you can unlock. Now I'm not totally sure on that, but I think the person who helped me a few days ago with the game mentioned, or rather tried to mention, that it seems as you can buy costumes with some money or points or something like that.
I've found a really awesome guy who don't have much experience in gaming who are more than willing to help to write everything down from the game to my guide, which I'm so glad about so I'm not sure how I can thank him for his awesome work! big_smile
I must say I really got surprised then I figured out how much Injustice really have to offer when it comes to different modes. There are around 20 different modes in the battles menu! smile and you can also adjust how each mode should work like adding things, which I didn't got him to describe because I would have all the useful menus written first.
So, for those who haven't got this game yet, I tell you it have a lot to offer. smile

Only talked when you confirmed which is the same when selecting characters.

Hmm. I'll have to check again then... because menus never talked as far as I can remember. At least, my copy of the game does not... Anyone have a recording that shows this?

Discord: clemchowder633

2014-01-24 09:39:57

Yeah, but if you then select the wrong thing, you'll first notice it when you hear the speech when the menu is confirmed. Lol.
I can find my copy of the game pretty quickly because I've labeled those with Braille. I'll see if i can make a recording of this, but don't know when I'll get time to do it.

Wait what? Talking menus in MK Deadly Alliance? Never heard of that at all. And I'm a die hard MK player/fan.

As I stated multiple times, "Talking Main Menu" meaning when an option is selected, it is spoken as when selecting a character.

Hi,
My copy of deadly alliance does not have that. Only thign it has is character select.
Are yous ure you're not talking about virtual fighter 4 from sega, with arcade, versus and such?

2014-01-25 22:43:38

Quite sure. No where in Virtua Fighter do the words "Test Your Might" or "Test Your Sight" come up as menu options.

Lol yep. MKDA didn't have anything of that sort. True about on the character select screen saying the names of each character when you select them. basically it has been like that in every title anyway

Wow, nice, really nice gameplay. I have two questions:
1: Are the fights not longer than normal? You punch the hell out of each other like the fight would end in a few seconds, but they are pretty long which puzzle me a bit.
2: Am I right that you don't use the super move by pressing L2 and R2? if not then why?
Oh, aren't you Scorpion?
I really hope to hear more gameplays from you in the future. Wow! big_smile
Edit: I was writing the post while watching the second fight, and the super move was done right after I clicked submit. Lol.

Best regards SLJ.

I have nice ideas to get injustice fully playable for the blind for PC, like similar to skullgirls, sadly, probably nether will not do these as most things. MK is bad still when talking about damaged stereo output n the PC version and  so bad quality of the cutscenes. Injustice's story mode for PC is completely in mono what is... well, really, really  bad move.

well, I could only imagine Nether would be very much open for any ideas. Why should they then make the accessibility mode in Injustice? They are the first company as far as I know who have oficially made accessibility improvements in any console game, so I wander how you can draw this conclusion.

1. the reason why you hear the characters punching each other really fast is because we're doing combos or in other words, a string of different hits put together throughout the match. SO, the fighting is moving at a really fast pace, but the timer during the match is still in the default settings.
In high level matches, the last thing you want to do is your super because you want to use the meter that builds up for the enhanced versions of your regular special moves to increase damage during a combo, to get out of pressure with an enhanced move, and to make sure you have meter to bbet during the clash/wager system.
3. Yes, I main Scorpion.
4. That's not the super move. That's called the clash or wager sequence. Basically the characters clash with each other, but during the dialog, you and your opponent must bet meter if you want to inflict damage or gain health back. As I said before, doing the super is pointless because you won't have any meter to bet, thus you end up receiving the damage during the wager system. This is activated like a combo breaker in MK9. Forward+the meter burn button.

Death_rattlehead: Thank you for some awesome explanation. big_smile It makes sense.
So, one of the reasons for the fights are pretty long is because you both regain more health because of the wager sequence?
It would be so amazing if you would make a recording and explain all those basics in the future. If you don't feel like recording your own voice, then it would be so much appreciated if you would help adding some explanations to my guide. Yeah, I'm still working on it. smile

SLJ, only because I tried to contact with the Netherealm and their really ignored all of my Bug / suggestions so... This is why. I'll be more than happy if their can fix those serious problems and add similar accessibility as with skullgirls mike did.

Hi. For those of you who've actually played it I'm wondering how much sight if any do you have? Thinking of trying the Xbox version but I'd be doing it with basically no sight so wouldn't want it to be too difficult to play without help.
