Injustice 2 Roster Discussion & Speculation Thread

Also to be even more negative, Black Canarys animations are... something.
As someone who is almost blind to NRS animations at this point, she reminds me of a MK9 character.

Watching her fight Atrocitus, it looks like they are from different games.
 
I for one love Black Canary's moveset from what we've seen. I'm excited to see what kind of gear is available for her; hopefully some pieces that channel some of her more iconic costumes. I caught a glimpse of fishnets in the trailer. She looks fantastic though and It's great to see NRS didn't go overboard on her sonic cry and have highlighted her fighting ability too. Do we have confirmation on her voice actress?
 
Isn't the beta an earlier build? Based on more recent footage her face appeared to have been changed. Those complaints seem tiresome when NRS have already made changes.

They did change her face.
It looks fine in her intro and clash, but the animation of her win poses makes her make this really ugly smile.

If they fix that, she would be fine.
 
I love waking up to a bundle of new news lol. Sad we're getting blue beetle and not Grodd though :(. So who all has gotten beta codes now?

Edit: no codes in my email yet lol. Not feeling black canary to be honest. She seems kind of underwhelming. Though I can't stop laughing at the caw sounds.

I admit I'm not hyped for BC but she's a solid addition to the roster. I felt the first was lacking in female protagonists.

Ivy is cool, bane ugh.

plz Black Adam next! Since boon teased him and canary not so long ago.

Atrocitus is my favorite to watch in action from the beta.
 
Have more codes gone out? Boon said wave 3 was soon and there's not shit in any of my three emails. I gotta give these away to you fine people here so what's the hold up?!!!

Yeah, I think calling for nerfs this early is just silly. It's been a week haha. This is why NRS has a terrible history of constantly patching their games because someone gets mad they're getting bodied.
 
Damn no code back to practicing with Bane do people even play Injustice on PC?

I'm sorry :(. Been checking my emails so I can PM you a code but of course, no code again. This is ridiculous lol. Btw what platforms are you on? I have injustice 1 on ps4 and could play whenever.

It's cool I'm on Xbox One I also have a PS4 but it's been taken over by my girlfriends teenage brother. This is the smallest most exclusive beta I've ever seen.
 
So I guess since the leak list is legit, can we rename Injustice 2 to Batjustice 2: Bats among Bats?

Haha. Batman has the most well known characters and villains so it can't be a shocker to anyone that they're doing this again. But hey, we're getting (presumably) 31 characters so there's more than enough room for non Batman characters... I hope :(.

On an unrelated note, I got matched with SonicFox and noped the fuck out haha. Can't learn Blue Beetle playing him. I sent him a message saying I'm too young to die and sorry but no response yet lol.

The only Batman character who got straight up cut from I1 is Batgirl - Nightwing's moveset is gone but the character of Damian Wayne is preserved as Robin - and we're getting more of them. That game had 6 Batman characters in the base roster (Batman, Nightwing, Joker, Harley, Bane and Catwoman), which was 25% of the roster of 24 characters. The percentage was reduced post DLC where we only got 1 additional Batman character out of 6 DLCs, with a total of 7 out of 30 post DLC.

If the leak is true, however, Injustice 2 bumps up the Batwank. Out of 28 characters, the 6 from the original come back, plus Poison Ivy, Scarecrow and Mr. Freeze, so we're going from a fourth to a third (9 out of 28) of the roster being Batman characters.

I remember a common complaint lobbed at Injustice 1 was that there was too many Batman characters compared to other DC properties. Yet here we are.
