Injustice 2 Roster Discussion & Speculation Thread

Jim Lee's Scorpion design was over the top, but I didn't mind it. I'm not sure whether he'd be asked to design Sub-Zero though, if he makes the roster. It'd be nice to have some consistency, but I'd love to see someone else's interpretation.

Yeah, someone else needs to take a shot at it.

Is this origin of Red Hood accurate?

Bronze Tiger is a literal tiger now? I just assumed that was a roided up Talky Tawny

Thankfully, not anymore. When James Tynion took the reins of Red Hood book he introduced the League of Assassins as part of Jason's backstory and for some reason, he thought they needed to have actual magic instead of just being assassins. So, this meant Bronze Tiger now could turn into a humanoid tiger, Cheshire could lethally poison people with a touch and they had this guy on their ranks.

Needless to say, the changes were poorly received and they were quickly retconned by other writers.

Haha. You did a great job putting together something for the growing number of beta participants. I'm sure it'll be used more readily once the game launches, especially in order to share our custom characters.

Thank you :). I'll see if I can edit it and put a 2 in there and unlock it. If not I'll create us a new one, and a better one!

Sinkfla87, I added you on PSN. I found your group on ps4 "Injustice GAF" but it's locked. Ya might want to add a "2" to the name of the group if you can, or just make a new one altogether.

Anyone here is welcome to add me for Injustice 2 (or any other multiplayer games - I play mostly 2D fighters & RPGs). My PSN ID: Pei-Yu

Sorry about the lock :(. I'm going to try to fix it here in a minute and I'll add you on PSN also! I think we should get a full list of names of those adding each other and joining the group so there's no confusion, I keep searching on my friends list on PSN for 2n2 when I invite him to a game of KOF and eventually remember his name his different and feel dumb haha. Even worse because we've​chatted on his PSN name is right there in my messages lol.

Pei, I play MKX, Injustice, Kof, marvel, and occasionally SFV so I'm down for whatever!


UPDATE: I've opened the group up and changed the name to Injustice 2, and added you fine people who sent me a friend request. I'm going to try to make some cosmetic changes to the group as well. Everyone is welcome to join!

I play those (don't have MKX/XL). Only have Injustice on ps3 though. I have the others you mentioned, and I'll be getting GGXrdRev2 next month as well!

You just gave me a reason to possibly plugging my PS3 back in haha. I want GG myself, 2n2 has it and have been meaning to pick it up. I saw somewhere I believe on Amazon that there's a sale going on for it now. If anyone sees me online around this time of night it's because I'm at work (shhhhh employee of the year over here) so I don't have all my games with me :(.
Sad thing is I might be looking for a new job which will not allow me to play here. I guess I can't complain because work is supposed to be work hahaha.

My PS4 ID is Lanoi and wouldn't mind having a few new friends to play with.
I bought my PS4 recently though, so I2 will be the my first fighter on the system.

I just remembered that you bring your PS4 to work and play in the back office. Did you get that raise yet? ;)

Hahaha no raise yet. :( And they've given me more work to do while they're at it. I work overnight at a hotel and while we're not in the worst part of town per see, in the 6 years I've done this job we've always had security guards just in case (bad things have in fact happened). They've now decided in order to cut costs that we don't really need a 2nd person here nor a security guard. So basically my personal safety doesn't exist anymore, not even for the guests who are spending a TON of money to stay here. MGMT didn't even feel it was important enough to let me personally know. Maybe this is payback for all these years of playing PS4 :(. I'm weighing my options on whether or not to stay, having a hard time finding somewhere else to go. :(

On a more positive note​, I added you lanoi!
 
Well my hype has pretty much dried up I always seem to lose interest a month before release. I'm still getting it and playing but won't be watching any streams until they show Darkseid.

Also, on Injustice Reddit a user named Gypsy who is a WB rep said we will get the entire mural altogether next week. The next character reveal is next Friday so I assume we'll see
Joker
in there somewhere.
 

Marvel

could never
My request for an MK guest would be for Noob Saibot... if not him then Johnny Cage. The latter would have amazing intro dialog.

Your personal safety is the most important factor here. Best of luck with whatever you decide to do. It's hard looking for a new job; that's what I've been doing since the beginning of the year.

They should keep (character spoiler)
the Joker
as a final launch surprise. I'd like at least one character to be unlocked in the game, maybe by completing the story mode, and he would fit.

That role might be just be filled by
Mr. Freeze
; I think he still qualifies even if
he's not a playable character
in the traditional sense.

Mikel Janin; he's one of the DC's top artists. You might have seen his art in Justice League Dark or Grayson. He's currently on Batman with Tom King.

Yeah, I've heard that name before (even though I'm not a Western comic reader, I prefer manga). Amazing anatomy and movement knowledge and skill. It's so good it looks as if he simply traced real life athletes fighting.

Thank you! Yeah I don't foresee myself staying at the job much longer. Lots of issues with the place and this was like the nail in the coffin lol. The saddest part of my natural thought process is "Well I already requested off for the launch of IJ2, maybe I should wait because I might not get those days off at the new job" Haha.

Maybe we'll get to see some surprise stuff tomorrow during the stream? I would like to see Tyler and Derek play with Green Arrow and Black Adam, and tell us what GA's damn boxing glove is!

As he is supposed to. I've never bought that Batman was at the top when it came to martial artist. I know he is more than competent, but not among the best. At least, in my opinion.

As long as Batman remains the most popular DC character, DC will always have him out perform and do feats that logically doesn't make sense for what kind of character he is. LOL

I'm going to pitch a story where Batman somehow gets everyone else's powers and then uses them better than they ever did. He'll find ways to use the speed force better than Flash, his willpower would power all other Green Lantern rings, he'll have all of Pre-Crisis Superman abilities, he'll be blessed by all of Wonder Woman's god friends, his cybernetics will be a billion years more advanced than Cyborg's, and he'll be the King of all ocean planets in the universe.

I could honestly see that happening in the current comics climate.
