Jago could totally sorta be Terry Crews.
If he was still relevant.

The Injustice 24/7 lobby on pandaxgaming2's channel has been getting a crazy amount of viewers the last couple days. It's at 1400 right now.
Sadly, no resizing options yet... that would require a lot of jQuery work that I dont have time for at the moment.
For now, I've made some new layouts for you guys:

What's been interesting is the amount of comic book discussion in the chat. I don't even remember Marvel having this much comic book discussion when it was released. Now, it could be a bad sign that people aren't in it for the game but it this has a chance to grab some genuine new players from the comic book fandom that stick around the scene.
In any case I'm trying to organize two tournaments at my local comic/card shop. I'm running it concurrent with this weekend's Magic the Gathering prerelease tournament and next weekend's Free Comic Book Day, so hopefully we get some bleed-over entrants and participants from both events to give the game a shot.

He is a true bad ass.
You better believe there was always a ton of character talk for Marvel, it never really ends either since Marvel fans are always fiending for more more more more characters. Same goes for Injustice fans I'm guessing and the DC Universe, and maybe especially so after the lackluster rumoured DLC character list. People still begging for Black Panther, Gambit, Squirrel Girl, etc.
Over time a lot of those people wean off of these games and threads/discussions though. But around launch of both vanilla and ultimate there was a lot of comics recommendation and elaboration going on. The crossover appeal or use of a non-FG-specific IPs eventually means less people playing through later in it's lifetime who aren't into fighting games in the first place. No better time than now to run tournaments at comic shops. Over at SRK right now there were a few comic shops playing host to Injustice tournaments too.

God that CW Arrow costume looks so good and they gave him the logo from the TV show on his meter. Dammit they better hurry up and email me that code for this skin.

I guess. Maybe my memory is just hazy from the beginning of Marvel 3 and all I can remember from the chat were Phoenix and Sentinal nerf demands and complaints (just like the current sea of Deathstroke nerf cries echoing people who couldn't get around Sentinal beams). Even weirder is that I'm more of a Marvel comics fan in the first place.

I wouldn't mind Static as DLC but I may be the only one

Just don't put Scorpion in as DLC, that'd be dumb.

They should do Sagat instead.

I wish I would say something dumb/smart enough to get a new tag. I've had this one for like 6 years and I can't even remember the last time I went to 4chan.
Tiger Trait. Yes!
Static and other Milestone characters belong to Milestone Media, not DC. In order to be in the game, DC/Time Warner would probably have to hop through extra hoops compared to a character that DC owns outright. It's not impossible, but extremely unlikely.

Static is in the DC timeline now plus he was in DC Online
DC worked out a distribution deal for the Milestone characters a few years back, but it's essentially a leasing agreement. They don't own the characters. Still, I didn't know that Static was in DC Online (didn't even know that was still running, actually) so maybe there is hope. Now I'm morbidly curious to see how badly the MK team would redesign his costume.

Real talk I would actually be interested in the game and maybe give it a try if he was in it and was decent and had a good character model.
We should've gotten a Markman character

It is pretty good.
After consulting my extreme Marvel bias and disdain for DC characters, I have come up with a list of characters that should've been DLC (gameplay opportunities considered as well too):
Scarecrow
Rorschach
Ozymandias
R'as al Ghul
Hardmode: No Watchmen Characters
Scarecrow
R'as al Ghul
This guy because he reminds me of Captain Universe right now from Avengers
Swamp Thing
The second half of this post took me most of the time since my last post to scrounge for characters and not try to be Batman specific.

It's good but it's not as good as BB/P4A or TTT2/SC5 netcode
toddhunter

Yeah BB at least was pretty solid. Sfxt has been a lot more problematic for me than even SF4 or Marvel. I don't think that it is worse netcode, just that it is more noticeably bad with the warping when not playing with a perfect connection.
I can deal with general lag better as I'm not hitting combos anyway.

This is fucking fail as the game already is 1/4th filled with Batman characters. Go again no Batman characters but you can keep 1 Watchmen character but this time you have to.provide 10 characters.

How would Robin play?

They're better off making a Teen Titans Robin skin for Nightwing and getting his VA, similarly to the CW Green Arrow skin.

For the other team.
Ive seen someone claim sfiv was better than all of those. LOL
Seriously, ASW games feel very close to offline. TT2/SC5 feels good when it comes to inputs, but lag (slowdown) is more noticeable when it occurs. Id say the only real competition ASW had in terms of 2d is skullgirls.
sfxt had almost no input lag, but the audio issuses were so jacked. The patch made it better, but it felt different. The warping with latency was really jarring. It made characters way faster.
