Why can't UMK3 be more like MK3

I hate how UMK3 plays. It isn't very enjoyable. If you know how to play it you'll find it very repetitive. It just isn't as fun as "regular" MK3. Why am I stuck at the damn portal stage all the time on UMK3. Mk3 had awesome levels with great music. I'd hate to sacrifice the ninjas and play MK3. Has anyone released a version of Mortal Kombat 3 with the ninjas and the same game play as the original? I'd love to have it.
 
UMK3 plus?

How is the game play? I really want the cpu enemies to act more like MK3 and not UMK3.
 
MK3plus.

I'd pay to have my UMK3 upgraded with said features. The game is known for it's difficulty and lack of fun factor. I think MK3 has a lot going for it. It's considered the best in my opinion. The game no longer makes money at the arcade (all but dead) and shouldn't be configured to be ultra hard. It should be revised and upgraded.
 
Understand about the stage repeats. I hate that the only way to get back to the MK3 stages is to make sure you do not uppercut anyone through the floor in Scorpions lair, otherwise you're stuck with the same 4 stages over...and over....and over....and over....

Other than that, I'd still rank UMK3 above MK3. Well, except the endings. No idea why they got rid of the different story panels, and just made them all generic with text. Damn it.. now you're making me second guess myself.

The game play is completely different. UMK3 shows no mercy. No matter the difficulty it will remain very hard. I can beat the game (UMK3) with one credit by the way. It just doesn't have the replay value that MK3 had. The game can not be played offensively. I think UMK3 can make a big splash with the right game play.
 
I'd consider UMK3 as "loop" game play. Come to think of it MK 2 was the first offender but wasn't nearly as hard as MK3.
 
Bump this. I think this mod is worth doing. UMK3 isn't fun. I have no idea how difficult this would be but I'd be willing to pay for it.
 
I've got requests for multiple Midway games at this point, MK2 is winding down.

NBA Jam, UMK3 and MK1. Not sure which one I'd rather do, maybe a kick starter campaign for each to see what's next? [emoji16]

Do it! :D

I would still like a copy of your UMK3 that fixed level rotation and the missing bios and no other changes if you are willing to release those. That was my biggest complaint on that game. And of course the lack of a full finishing move set for some characters.
 
I say UMK3 can have new life if you'd fix the game play and make it fun. It's a lousy game when it comes you against the CPU. If you do this arcades everywhere will be in your debt.
