Nice pic,Grundy Rules, as I said gives me hope that it won’t be all A list characters, he certainly is not an unknown, but obscure enough that I feel some more underrated characters get in:
Case in point if Captain Cold gets in over Mr.Freeze. The flash rogues are all solid (mirror master would also be cool).
But I do think it’s him, he tends to be the only one who who shoots solid stabby ice beams along with the standard fair, all the others go stabby shards or freezing beams, or alternate.
Well, if they wanted to be all different and shit, they could give Lex, like, a Kryptonian-powersuit or something that makes him virtually as strong as supes. Especially if the plot is going to be “Justice Lords” style, and Lex is trying to beat Superman.
However, according to that Ed Boon thing, Superman seems like he’s getting the graceful “I’m not really trying to hurt you” style, and give Lex the Earth shaking ones. Like, that outer-atmosphere smash thing Superman did in the trailer: that’s not really like him (Unless he’s going bad), especially pulling it off on people who AREN’T invulnerable, like Batman or Harley (Although Batman apparently now has Superman strength as well). I could see Lex doing some shit like that, though. Lifting Superman into space after beating him unconscious, then smashing him down into a volcano or something.
I don’t know, I’m just kinda tired of Mobile Suit Luthor, ya feel me?
Over on TYM there is a guy who works at a studio that did some of the voices for the game. According to him there is Raven, Cyborg, and Deathstroke. He may be lying and may have outdated info, but he is a top MK player so it is not like he is some troll.
Wait a sec. Im not really trying to hurt you?? Superman punched the Flash to FUCKING SPACE and then punched him back and you dont think he’s trying to hurt him?
I want competition! When WB Games announced MK’s comeback, I was hoping they’d us this as the second coming. Whether you like it or hate it, you know Street Fighter’s BIGGEST rival was Mortal Kombat, making Midway into Capcom’s rival. In all honesty, this is happening at the perfect time. A DC Fighting Game when Capcom is getting bad press, and essentially their only golden game being Ultimate Marvel? Genius! This is gonna force Capcom to step up their game and put out more quality, because there’s a risk they’ll be in the same dogfight they were in during the first Golden Age of Fighting Games in the 90s! I fucking love it!
OK, with that said, I REALLY don’t like that they went with New 52 Harley’s design in this game, but the rest looks awesome. If it plays like MK9 they’ll have some success. If it brings something new to Fighters and has the options of MK9 it’ll be a huge success.
And if they have Kevin Conroy voice Batman, Shut up & Take My Money!
I’m cool with all of those, cyborg could be quite versatile, Deathstroke is always awesome, raven is okay, would prefer zatanna, but I have no problem with her presence.
It’s one of those weird things, the iconic Luthors are Scientist and Evil Businessman, neither of which is particularly useful for games (although very interesting in the sense of storytelling). I suspect we’ll always get him just because he won’t fit in a fighting game otherwise.
PS: I had a friend show me the DCU online intro recently, some of the Injustice models are almost identical to those.
Yoooo, Brainiac would be the SHIT! But, apparently, for some reason, no one except die hard Superman fans know who he is, so he can’t be put in anything lest the non no-life nerds be confused and lost.
I know. Ed Boon said they are trying to make him graceful, and he always fights at, like, 4% of his actual strength. He would never punch anyone into space, and then back down to the ground, especially someone like Flash (who is not invulnerable). Giving him that move is like making Spider-man punch people at full strength all the time. Just so you know, that would mean 99.9% of the people he’s ever punched would be dead. That is ENTIRELY too brutal for Superman. I like the move, though, and was offering an alternative: if Lex had Kryptonian powers, you could DO things like that without spitting what a character stands for.
At the end of the day it is still a rumor because his information could be outdated. Although it is just a slightly more educated guess
I just want Killer Croc man, would be so epic. I also think they should keep MK9’s meter system, and i personally would prefer a block button. Back for block would not be a huge deal, but I just prefer the button.
Oh totally, I expect them to change the meter anyways, just to make it seem different, but the basic function they should keep. I’m also pro button block, that gets way too much hate from people.
Croc would be a good one, They’re obviously not afraid to mess with scale (Grundy is HUGE)
