and we get characters like Nightwing,Joker,Harley Quinn,Catwoman....I mean come on DC has a shit load of super powered villains and heroes I get that they are popular but still.....
I'm hoping for Black Adam,Darkseid,Doomsday,Martian Manhunter,Lobo,Sinestro,SBP,Cyborg Superman,Hal Jordan,Captain Atom,Firestorm and I could go on...

There's still at least a dozen characters to be revealed, so there should be at least a few metas and heralds in the mix. They haven't shown us the Green Lantern, for example.

No @ Prime though. **** him.

Anyways I just want more metas.

Some of those guys are just Supes. Firestorm is over the top. Doomsday would be nice though.

The problem with this game is it's just MK with DC heroes. It's not balanced.
It's not creative. Stealth characters can't hide and use the terrain to take down their enemies. Bricks don't have any reason to exist.

I'll say this once and I'll say it again. Create a 3D large battlefield game. With Turn-Based attacks. And you can watch your battles after the fight is done.

We will never have a truly comic fighting game until turn-based battles are introduced. Especially on a cool MMO level game.
This is a 1 on 1 fighting game and it reeks of boring. Nightwing hitting Supes hard enough to beat him into KO. It sucks.

Double post woops.

I can tell you don't really keep up with this game at all.

Honestly, go play avengers alliance. And that's not an insult, I play it too.

I'll be here punching Black Adam (assuming he's added) in to the atmosphere.

This is off-topic but it's still appropriate enough to post here:

I wish NRS just buy the KI franchise now.

Ouch.

I could see Netherrealm doing a good job; if Injustice is even half as good as MK was, they're only going to get bigger and bigger.

Ed Boon interview:

Sounds good to me.

Turn-based games all suck. Fact of the universe.

Pretty ****ing much.

@ Bro: I really wish that now too.

Deja vu all over again

went over this with Marvel vs Capcom 3

not you in particular Ninjak.

Did nobody read the part that said "heavily modified mortal kombat engine"?

Mechanics that aren't in mortal kombat. Characters, locations, moves that aren't in mortal kombat.

😬

Persona is turn-based.

Indeed. I read an interview that said they always get asked "so is this gonna be just MK but with DC heroes instead?" They went on to say "No this game is not MK. Just because that is our premiere game does not mean this game has anything to do with it."

I am expecting similarity though.

Well yeah, obviously. It'll feel like a Netherrealm game.

That and (unless they change things) some of the moves in the gamplay trailers look similar if not the same as some of the moves from DC Vs MK

All I've seen is breakthrough environments and aspects of the environment that can be used as weapons.
It'll still be a fun game.

I know people aren't gonna agree. But Marvel Rise of the Imperfects to me is still the better comic brawler. 3D environments, clever use of unique superpowers, walls that could be run along. Practically everything was destructible.
Great story-mode campaign that wasn't just 1 on 1 fights but also taking on invading armies. If attacks were chained enough you could kill your opponent quickly rather than just smacking their energy bar down. Imperfects was awesome.

Just what has been announced that make Injustice not just a prettier MK vs DC?

That's like asking what makes last year's Mortal Kombat game just a more violent MK VS DC.

Heavily modified engine. I don't see how that alone isn't a huge difference. Not to mention a very different fighting system.

It's a solely DC game, so fatalities and anything too bone-shatteringly violent is off the table. The onus is on big, comic book-type battles, with people being tossed through walls (like Boon said, every arena has three areas to fight in). It's a completely different focus, with a heavily modified engine like I said. People have a character specific power, which can mean various things for various people. For Wonder Woman, it actually alters her fighting style.

I don't know why being 2d somehow hurts it; it didn't hurt MK.

Does it have power bars and super moves? Yes, just like plenty of other fighters.

And I don't know how you can say Marvel Nemesis is better when you haven't even played this one.
