Pretty much. I’m giving NRS the same ultimatum as I gave SNKP when KOFXIII was coming out (though this will mean more to NRS since…well, FGs are pretty much the only thing they make). If the netcode is horrid again absolutely no one will ever have faith in them again no matter how good their next games are.
All this talk I’ve been hearing about banning interactables before the game is even cracked sounds pretty scrubby to me.
Anyway, I’m probably going to get this game. Looking forward to Black Adam since he’s got that Vegeta swag going on.
More fighters should have NRS style story modes IMO. Next best thing is GG/BB/Persona/AH3 style story, but those just feel extremely cheap to me. It was cool for the first time, but now I just can’t play a story mode that has still images and fifty lines of text between each match. I’m hoping that these things evolve on next gen consoles.
As someone who was an advocate for Stage Hazards. I have to honestly say they make the game silly.
Some characters are struggling to get BnB’s past 40% with one meter, but the strong power characters are throwing unblockable fucking TVs for 29%.
The power characters get so much more mileage out of them, that its easier and smarter to destroy them before they can throw them at you.
Otherwise, the game is glorious and The Joker is cheap as fuck. He reminds me of Peacock from SkullGirls but he has a Haggar Pipe that’s impossible to not cross up with. lol.
In theory, Stage interactables are no different than dealing with walls, or ring out in other 3d games, some characters get more mileage out of different stages. Player will need to learn how to counter a bad stage and make the most out of their good stages. And judging the effectiveness of these interactables on the demo or a leaked build before the day 1 patch isn’t going to get us anywhere. In fact, making a rash judgement a few weeks after the game is launched is also silly. Let the game breathe and grow before making a decision.
Either way, I’m happy with the way The Joker turned out. However, his trait is really, really hard to use. The parry is strong and fast (2F Startup), but its risky and doesnt parry air moves (which would make it broken). The duration of time each level last for is really short so maintaining maximum insanity is really hard.
Related to the topic…
Sweet. I hope the game being ‘early in Batman’s career’ isn’t some kinda excuse to ditch Kevin Conroy as the voice actor. Seems like that’s all the rage these days.
Maybe down the line they’ll make a Deathstroke dlc costume of his AO costume.
First time I loaded up Injustice on my iphone it gave me an iOS memory error. And I still don’t get sound. And there was a warning at the beginning that it wasn’t made for my device o.0
the people bitching about the stage environment hazards are the same idiots who watch Cody walk towards the knife (or Vega walk to his removed claw) and do nothing about it then get fucking shanked.
Apparently from what I’ve read elsewhere Rocksteady is working on something else at the moment.
More Batman is always awesome . The Arkham games are generally amazing and i would like to give these new guys the benefit of the doubt for now .
Less than a week now, especially if my Gamestop is having a midnight release for Injustice. I think I need to find out that vital info.
TYM has put on a full out embargo on Injustice now. You can’t even talk about things that are possibly leaked, let alone videos and such. I feel…cold…need…gameplay…
but they’re “not being doodoo heads about it,” right?
it must really suck to work on a highly anticipated game for two years and then have someone post it on the internet as a free download.
I don’t blame them for their actions, it’s very understandable.
Luckily, this is the home stretch. At this point, a week is easy.
I wonder if their will be any crossover content between Arkham origins and Injustice.
They are really pushing it with forcing the word “Arkham” in their game titles.
And Injustice will probably be irrelevant to them by that point(I’m Serious) because All the profit will already have been generated at that point.
hmm. glad someone understands them!
i hope they come out with arkham asylum harley; the nurse outfit was pretty cool. i also want to see arkham city harley in this game already!
