Injustice 2 Roster Discussion & Speculation Thread

Thanks Ed Boon! His stage and super look awesome.

His design is cool but why does he look old as fuck?

I thought they were going for his first appearance at first look:

Just put a hood on him, there's no way that wont be gear lol
 
Black Adam Website description.

BLACK ADAM
“GOOD AND EVIL ARE NOT CONSTANTS. THEY ARE DEFINED BY THOSE WITH POWER.”


After the fall of the Regime, Black Adam returned to his home defeated and humiliated. Staying hidden from Batman’s watchful eye, Khandaq has become a safe haven for the Regime’s remnants. There they await the day that together they can restore the Regime's rule upon the world.
 
In IJ1 Black Adam looked like an Egyptian king.

In this game Black Adam looks like he's a middle-aged Arab dad waiting to pick up his kids from soccer practice while his wife is out working.

Look Cyborg, I have to be back home from "bowling" in 2 hours or Isis will kill me. Let's hurry up and destroy that convoy."

Pffft hahaha

I prefer I1 Adams face as well. NRS could still improve him i guess.

They will probably improve the render a great deal by the time the game is released (I expect the same for Catwoman) but he's just gonna look good graphically, not physically. The entire art direction in this game was about aging him up for some reason. Unless he can make a Superman/Aquaman like transformation in such short notice, Black Adam will look like he's been attending PTA meetings rather than subjugating the world.
 
I just have a gut feeling Catwoman is going to remain ugly and ignored.

At least Black Adam looking like a creepy uncle is funny, Catwoman is just terrible.
 
Two of Black Adam's physical trademarks are his pronounced widow's peak hairline and pointy ears. He lacked both of those in the first game, but he has them here.
Yeah, if someone wants to dig out a good Johns!JSA picture of him taking everyone on it should be easy to see that.
 
Black Adam looks fucking amazing, especially his Super. Glad they based him off the comics instead of the rock.

Don't get the complaints about him looking old, he always look aged before the new 52, he definitely had a widow's peak.

Between him and fate for my main right now.
 
These Playstation stat email things going around have told me I have 676 hours played of the first Injustice.

I knew it was probably my most-played game ever, but Jesus Christ. That is an INSANE amount of time for me.
 
ffff we really need another beta or something, feel it's criminal we haven't even seen like half the announced roster in depth. We haven't even seen gameplay of flash have we?

Nope, no Flash gameplay at all so they probably revamped him. Truth is we're still over a month away from release with only 3 characters left to reveal. There's no stream next week because Tyler said he'd be in New York promoting the game so we MAY get something there. I think after this next week the flood gates will open even more than they already have and they will start releasing gameplay videos at a higher rate. I'm excited to see Green Arrow's new trait.
 
Thanks to a left over gift card, Amazon's Prime discount, and a $5 dollar coupon for a mobile purchase, I managed to get the Ultimate Edition for 60 bucks. I think that's a good get.
 
They removed the countdown timer from the games site.

I really hope they drop videos like the "Introducing Cheetah" thing we got a while ago for all characters that haven't gotten something like it before.

I think Bane will get one during a watchtower stream.
 
I'm hoping we get a trailer detailing all the Premier Skins before launch. It would be cool to know what unexpected characters got snuck into the game that way, and it'll be a pain in the ass if there's no official list of them and people just have to get lucky and find the drops to figure out who there is.

I want to see them in action.

But I imagine the full roster has to be revealed first.
 
The leaked list is probably complete, with Mr. Freeze being the only full-on character swap premier skin in the game.

That's half the fun of unlocking
