Injustice 2 Roster Discussion & Speculation Thread

I wonder if they will address PS4 Pro features before launch of the game. Maybe on the events this week? I won't hold my breath though. :/
 
If Joker and Green Arrow prove anything, it's that death in this storyline does not matter anymore.
I hope the Supers will be 60fps for the Pro version.
They won't. If a Pro user is fighting against a base PS4 user online, then the game is gonna start to get De-synced EASILY if there's such a stark FPS difference. Way too much of a hassle to implement and have it working correctly.

They're probably just gonna up the rendering resolution and call it a day. Which to be fair is one of the few options available to them without causing needless issues.

That alone would be a silly improvement. I hope for an at least 1800p resolution mode that does allow downsampling on HDTVs. (Sad state of affairs that you have to worry for enabled downsampling...)
The game would look so much better in a higher resolution, since it does suffer from aliasing and dithering of materials like hair or fur.

In the case of Green Arrow, Tom Taylor kinda gave NRS a get-out-of-jail-free card via the prequel comics for the first game & where it left Black Canary before the events of the first game.

That would be sweet.
 
I'm not a fan of playing ranged or zoning characters in fighting games, but damn if Dr. Fate doesn't look fun as hell to play in that footage.
 
What's weird though is in all the videos I've seen of the CPU playing, I've not once seen his DB1 lift move.

NOOOOOOO! The meter burn version is how I get all my combos. Eh, I can get combos off a few other things, I guess. I'm only just starting out playing fighting games against other people though.

Dr. Fate's gameplay is really reminding me of Sinestro, who I also really liked.

Yeah, Fate is definitely a suitable replacement for Sinestro. I love some of his abilities and base moves, too. They got very creative with him.

As for GA, don't panic just yet because we also have yet to see his DB2 Rockets. Or maybe, that means we should panic more haha.

This is one of the rare fighting games where so many of the cast look appealing to me as opposed just two or three that I have no idea who I'll end up with. (the other being KI). I didn't have this problem in the first. I'll maybe even end up with a sleeper. I ended up using Canary exclusively in the demo despite having no immediate interest in her after the trailer.

Right now though, Brainic is speaking to me big time. He just looks too awesome.

Brainiac exceeded my expectations, that's for sure. It'll be hard for me to pick too.

Haha. That's going to piss more than a few people off.

Good, pissing people off and therefore making them make flustered mistakes is all I've got going for me haha.

Tell me about it. When I first saw the leaked roster I was kind of iffy but now I honestly believe this game will be more diverse and more interesting than the first. I just want to play them all (except for you again, Blue Beetle I'm sorry).

I am tempted by Dr. Fate too, got Ermac vibes.


Soooo many potential mains. Darkseid is the frontrunner though.

I think also the huge visual upgrade to characters helps. There were some in the first that just put me off because they looked so weird. I stuck with Green Lantern just because his model looked the least goofy.

Scarecrow is just a lock for me.

Everyone else... I'll see once I get my hands on the game.

Yeah, Scarecrow is already looking scary (unintentional pun) thanks to K&M's combo video. This will be my first game that I'm considering becoming seriously competitive in. I tried a little with MKX but definitely didn't work on it hard enough. I wanna go to tourneys and actually win something haha.
 
dont you play F.A.N.G and now scarecrow catches your eye. The LONG and Lanky, slightly freak weird characters ... or is that just a coincidence.

not that i disagree w/ your selection of fighters
Well, I can give a technical reason for that.

The reason is that I like playing grounded, footsie characters that have the potential to play keepaway, or have decently ranged normals. FANG fits me perfectly because he has the mobility to get in or out, the tools to play keepaway and the long and safe normals to tie it all together. Scarecrow seems to have a similar moveset in that he has incredibly long range normals that are great at playing a grounded game where I can AA or react to the enemies moves safely. I can also hit confirm from a distance. Both characters also have an ability which allows them to poison the enemy and damage them just by being near them. Generally if I play a more offense oriented character then I'd like for them to have a command grab and scarecrow has just that.

But if I'm being honest, it's because he looks incredibly badass and his VA is amazing.

The wait for this is unbearable, none of my games interest me right now.

I've played enough MKX/SFV to last a life time, really want to move on.
