My assumption is that the reptilian race is definitely on the rise and one or two from their race, whether from previous consoles or brand new characters, will be making an appearance. Reptile has always been used as glue in the stories, thus I'm sure they'll find a use for him in the next MK if not a separate saurian.

I think that quan chi was the ultimate character in mortal kombat 4, awsome costume and moves and the best fatality, me thinks 
i was heart broken to see just how crap he became in the latest mortal kombats  the guys only decent stlye was the broadswards, his others were so crap. but im thankful that that awsome costume as his alternative one, a bit less great then the original. i think turquois has become his signiture colour. he just needs to be in mk8 with everything identical about his appearence from mk4. coming onto that, there shouldnt be any fighting style things in the new mk, the weapon switch is kool though.
midway need to understand that people who diddnt click with the fighting mechanics of any of the mortal kombats still bought the games just to see how their favorite characters looked in next gen. i think everyone agrees that liu kang in deception was the most amazing surprise in deception, ill never forget that moment  heres some characters i think should make it,
Raiden
QUANCHI
Reiko
Sub Zero
Scorpion
LIU KANG
Shao Kahn
KINTARO (the four arm thing just made a signiture boss for mk's)
Fujin
Cyrax
Another point is that most if not all of the new charaters added to the mk franchise since mk deadly aliance were just not satisfying, ive only liked our classic characters, i realised that the whole fighting game became more boring when i diddnt use a mk classic person.
oh and one more thing, mk8 needs to beat the amount of unlockables in mortal kombat deadly alliance, it was worth playing just to see what more i could unlock, the krypt was a wicked idea. but the hidden characters were all given away in the booklet.
mk deception was the best out of the three latest, the characters were in depth and the excitement behind unlocking them was just too much, liu kang just made it better. 
and come on, release the special editions in the uk aswell man

I agree thus will sum up the basic concept I believe they should stick with. They need to emphasize their shock and awe from unlockables and extras to make the game more intriguing, specifically with the unlocked characters. I don't believe it's too much of 'which characters will be in MK8', though more 'how will they present the characters in MK8'. That was Armageddon's downfall. Think about it; every single character, yet a kind of 'force yourself through' Konquest, because you don't unlock anyone, thus it's like there's nothing to fight for really, except stayin' alive, and barin' yourself to the end.

I believe that the following fighters should stay in Mortal Kombat:
MILEENA & KITANA: Mileena has been providing some excellent storylines since her appearance in MK2 and is a fan favourite, her rivalry with Kitana makes both fighters have a good chance of longetivity in the franchise. Kitana also has the same fanbase and an interesting storyline, perhaps the death of Sindel in Armageddon could alter her story to a new and refreshing tale.
REPTILE & CHAMELEON: Judging by Khameleon's storyline, she probably wont be included in Mk8 so the only chances of the Saurians having any future comes from Reptile and Chameleon. Reptile seems to have found a new female warrior but Chameleon still has a great chance of expanding his story and perhaps the Saurian race can provide him with a more permanent mark in the MK universe.
CYRAX & SEKTOR: Both robots introduced a new and refreshing type of fighter in MK3 and to not have them involved in MK8 would be quite strange. They both despise each other, this could easily fuel a cybernetic clash in MK8 since Sektor has still yet to retain his soul and Cyrax is an operative of the Special Forces
NOOB & SUB-ZERO: I would like to see Scorpion die off in MK8 so both of these fighters can get a better chance at the limelight and expand on their stories. Noob has given us a sense of pity since Deception as we know he is the elder brother of Sub-Zero who was murdered in the first tournament
and as we have seen in the Konquest mode, Sub-Zero is making attempts to rescue Noob's soul. A good, thick storyline is available here

I didn't know we were bein' picky with specifics. I only wanted to scintillate the comparison between Deception and Geddon, from one half of the roster to four characters who aren't really too noticeable beside their fellow horde. And even though there are four unlockables they don't exactly get you pumped up to leave Konquest and try them out because in one good sit you'll only unlock about one or two and you most likely haven't played with 3/4 of the characters yet.
I guess I just didn't feel like including all this to save a good deal of off-topic reading.

I really don´t care whether 4 characters can get you pumped up or not. It´s about facts. I just don´t like when people make the game (Konquest) look worse than it really is

You could just say ´You can unlock only four characters´ instead of ´you don´t unlock anyone´. You know, 2 additional words wouldn´t kill you 
Peace.
Back on topic:
I don´t know who will be in the next MK, but I´ll be ok, if at least some of my favorite characters (Ashrah, Ermac, Kitana, Li Mei, Mileena) are included

Heh, there will be no new characters. Sub-Zero and Scorpion, possibly, but the others won't. Ed said he will be starting from scratch. You never know - This might be good for MK's future.

Scorpion also has to expand his own story
they just can't cut him off in the next game
without a reasonable cause

From what I heard, they are going to have a completely new character roster, with no one from the old games. But if they were to keep someone, I think it would be Rayden. He's always been an important part of the storyline, and he's evil now, which opens more possibilities.

Well, if you heard that none of the old characters were coming back, then you're wrong, RageRaptor101. The MK Team has already mentioned that about 85-90% of the cast was being killed off. That means about 10-15% of the cast was going to return in MK 8. The only question is who. A couple of the more likely ones are Scorpion and Sub-Zero.

Oh, okay. Good. I was going to miss some people from the old games.

Yeah man. That would definitely be bad if everyone was killed off. I agree with wiping the slate clean, but let's not kill everyone off, only most of them.

As long as I see Scorpion, Sub-Zero and Ermac in it, I'll be happy. The new character thing has got me (guessing everyone else too) wondering, what will they be like? I mean, if they made new characters and gave them moves that we've all seen before that would be a huge dissapointment, and the look of the characters, it won't be an easy job, i think....
