Was really hoping we'd get a Big Trouble In Little China premier skin for Raiden before they revealed him and now I'll just take any gear at all to cover up that default costume. Eeesh. You'd think, given the blowback on MK characters, they'd try to make it as badass as possible but, nah. Black Lightning would also be a bonus to wipe this disappointment.

Black Manta and Hellboy are exciting additions for me, though! 2/3 ain't bad.

Hellboy smoking a cigarette?

 

[BoogieWoogie]

Surprised as hell at Hellboy!

 

[patchday]

Thought I was done with this game. Maybe I'll give it another go for Hellboy.

just curious what caused you to move on? Just got bored with the content?

(curious why anyone left for that matter- unless it was Tekken 7 then that needs no explanation)

 

[Jawmuncher]

Gotta add more MK characters because the next game we're getting is MK vs DC

 

[Tankard]

What happened to Raiden?

Otherwise, looking great.

 

[YoRHa No.2 Type B]

What happened to Raiden?

Otherwise, looking great.

He ate too much tortilla chips in Mexico.

 

[Galactic Specter]

Fuck Raiden, give me me more comic book characters.

 

[MadLaughter]

Raiden looks bad, takes a slot for an actual DC character, is a guest character when we already have too many of those.

 

[Lothars]

Hellboy and Manta look great, Raiden looks like a waste of space and I am super dissapointed about more than one MK character.

 

[Fury451]

Hellboy smoking a cigarette?

That did annoy me severely actually.

 

[RM8]

I wanted more MK characters!

...for the Kombat Pack 2 in MKX. NRS is getting really annoying with their DLC choices.

 

[BiggNife]

I couldn't care less about Manta or Raiden but man, Hellboy is such a good choice

Also a much better choice than Spawn imo

I might just buy him and skip the other two

 

[Slayven]

Damn when your own people forsake you

 

[big_erk]

If Spawn is in Fighter Pack 3 y'all owe me fidollas.

I ain't giving you any more than treefiddy!

But Spawn would be worth it.

Damn when your own people forsake you

Dude, I love Blue Devil. I have that book somewhere.

I'm just not a fan of how NRS fighters really feel. They did a great job at improving over the first (especially in regards to netcode and roster), so I'll give them massive props for that. But, at the end of the day, I'd rather just play games I really enjoy the mechanics and gameplay for such as Guilty Gear, UNIST, or Tekken.

Hellboy is one of my favorite series ever though, so I'm willing to support him. I've spent hundreds on all the books, various statues, and even commissioned art already. This is really nothing in comparison and I'm sure I'll manage to have some fun with him.

 

[What did he mean by this?]

Give Black Lightnjng or Static skin bundled with Raiden then all is forgiven

 

[Lights and Waves]

I wish there was an easier way to select the premium skins in multiplayer without having to create a new loadout for them.

 

[WarRock]

I agree that Spawn is more fit to MK, so... know who else would be pretty cool and has an obvious trait mechanic? Bigby.

 

[fernoca]

Blame the people buying them, not the ones making them.

And it was,already mentioned that there could be more characters outside the first 9. Guess they will continue looking at sales. Game has been selling way better than expected.

 

[AWizardDidIt]

Raiden sucks but Hellboy's a rad choice for a guest character.

 

[Skinny Pete]

Hellboy? Wow day one.

 

[kewlmyc]

Yeah, I'll take Hellboy over Spawn.

Fighter Pack 2 will be available for purchase starting September 12, at which point the first character from the bunch will be available for early access.

 

[Steiner]

Came here to post this.

Black Manta gameplay reveal coming. First fighter dropping Sept. 12. We put two and two together...

Black Manta Sept. 12.

 

[Neoxon]

Hellboy & Black Manta are hype, by Raiden is kind of an expected disappointment since I wanted Static. Sub-Zero was more than enough for MK characters in Injustice 2.

 

[Ivan 3414]

Yeah, Raiden is lame af. Hellboy and Black Manta are cool tho

 

[Johndoey]

Hellboy smoking a cigarette?

Yeah that was actually off-putting.

 

[blacklotus]

The fuck is up with Hellboy's giant cigarette?

Have NRS's modelers never seen a cigar before?

It's driving me nuts.

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

I'm actually really glad that they're going for comics-look for Hellboy than the movies.

 

[Costanza-san]

Hellboy should've been the only guest character in all these packs.

 

[Thores]

Do we know the voice actor for Hellboy yet? Is it Ron Perlman?

 

[Sevket-Erhat]

It better be

 

[Zero-ELEC]

Yoooooooooo!

We got that once. It wasn't... great.

 

[Compbros]

Yoooooooooo!

That was still 3D era Midway, complete trash. I'd love a new on with the current systems.

 

[netguy503]

The ultimate edition includes one more pack after this right? Because it says it gives you access to 9 DLC fighters and after this is done it would only be 6 still.

Yes, there's 3 packs in total. Third pack is speculated to be Atom, Enchantress, and Rorschach.

 

[Bebpo]

Surprised to see some negativity towards Hellboy, as a non-DC fan, that just sold me on the game. Definitely has a strong pull towards a wider audience.

Which is why guests are added. The reason people don't like it is that they want their favorite DC characters to be added and every guest is an opportunity taken away.

Hellboy is a guest character that I'm cool with since he's also a comic book character who happens to have a history with DC crossovers. That said, NRS is leaving opportunities for more DC characters on the table by opting for guest characters.

 

[JeTmAn81]

Hellboy is an amazing pick

 

[LegendX48]

Rolling my eyes at Raiden. Hellboy looks cool though

 

[KentBlake]

Great! Now I can make my two favorite comic book characters fight.


Hellboy x Swamp Thing

 

[JeTmAn81]

It better be

That would be ideal but it didn't sound like him to me

 

[Screaming Meat]

Great! Now I can make my two favorite comic book characters fight.


Hellboy x Swamp Thing

You're alright.

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

Great! Now I can make my two favorite comic book characters fight.


Hellboy x Swamp Thing

👌

 

[J-Tier]

Yeah, I don't think it's Ron Pearlman. Plus, it may be hard to get him back in the studio to voice interactions with future characters since he's a bigger name.

 

[Tizoc]

Hellboy smoking a cigarette?

Yeah he smokes in the original comics too iirc.
And drinks on the job
Doesn't end too well for him.

 

[Jawmuncher]

Hellboy deserves to be in. If you don't like the guest characters direct it towards raiden and sub zero

 

[CaptNink]

I like Hellboy and Raiden more than Black Manta.
