Injustice: Gods Among Us |OT| With Super Friends Like These, Who Needs Enemies?
- Thread starter Ryce

The little things I really appreciate about the game
- shows who paused
- frame data in pause menu
- being able to bookmark moves from the list so it'll stay on screen instead of always having to reference it manually
What is missed
- no trial mode for each character; I wouldn't really classify star labs as trial mode.
- hit box info!

Add to this the neat coinflip picking for versus. Now, instead of people arguing over what stage to play when Player 1 has ultimate control, or even worse, when EVERYONE has control of the same cursor, you simply have two people pick whatever stages they want, and then it's 50/50. Nice!
Oh shit yeah, thanks for reminding me about that lol.
Speaking of that, in trial mode you can have it highlight the areas that let you interact with the environment; or you could just look at the top near by your health and the icon will appear knowing you can do something.
Also, I believe it's always on or its an option, that when you get knocked down or block, near your super meter you get a notification about wakeup/reversal window respectively.

I'm guessing this will be on sale for $40 within a month.
Yea that was OD. Flash looks sick. HawkGirl play on now.
What? Even the guy playing it said it wasn't that good, too laggy to even do combo's. And he's on fiber.
I'm surprised at how often people say online is fine based on streams just because it looks smooth.

Yeah, but at the same time he doesn't know who he was playing vs and how far they were. You could be on fiber and I could have 56k with 50 torrents running and it's gonna lag like crazy.
So that negates the fact one person is on fiber.

Looks like Art has stumbled upon a full-ass lobby.
if you wanted a test of online, this looks like it.

I don't know that I can hold ignore this game unless it comes to PC. I might need to dust off the XBox and shell out on a month of live.

Art's hitting nice combos pretty consistently. If you can hit your combos online without worrying then that's good enough for me. Maybe those combos are really easy or something though.

Really wish this game had dash cancels.Would make it so much better movement wise.
Loving the look of engine otherwise and characters though.
May I present to you the dash cancel option that exists in Injustice. Meter Burn Dash Cancels and pseudo FADC.
Its different but it is a very real tactic and it has its uses as anyone who uses FADC can tell you it would. Enjoy gettin' in dat ass.

What does Aquaman's trait do?
Yea it looked like some of Black Adam's were more strict.
That Bane charge seems kind of silly.

Like I said, it feels like current MK9. Still not the greatest but certainly not the worst. I think people are confusing their experience with the launch netplay for MK9 (understandable since I imagine a lot of people dropped the game's online soon after the dlc debacle), which was far worse.

Not I. MK9's netcode even after the netcode patch was still fucking terrible.

My experience with the 360 MK9 was that after the patch I could finally get enough playable matches (I'm in NY btw). PS3, when I got the Komplete version, not so much. Granted I didn't spend a lot of time on that version, but I found it less playable than 360.
I judge "worst" by my experience with stuff like SC4 and Tekken 6.
Think so? MK9 sold a heck of a lot and they seem to be doing alright with the advertising on this game.

Man, lots of these characters look really good. Super hyped for Monday night!
MK9 was a $40 game to begin with, wasn't it?

Yeah it's a DC superhero game made by the MK guys. 2m+ sales easy. The price probably won't drop for a while.

Yes there is. You press triangle/xbox equivalent, and select "Hidden Cursor". Can be done offline as well. Also how you pick random and change buttons at the select screen (offline only).

Grundy reciting the rhyme is great.

When he activates it he becomes slippery and he can "slip" out of combos. Meaning he can block. So if you are doing a string and he is hit he can then block the following hits instead of them being a natural combo. He can activate this anytime, even mid combo. He still can't do anything if he's being juggled, it only effects ground combos. It's very powerful. If he has it available you will have to alter your combos to pop him up as soon as possible.

Grundy looks like a people-who-aren't-good-at-fighting-games killer.
He's Zangief when SF4 first came out.

Wondering if stage interactions will be turned off for tournaments.
Also, what's Harley's trait?
Also, what's Harley's trait?
It was a $10 downloadable game actually.
I wasn't making a snarky remark about how much they should have charged for the game or whatever, I seriously thought it launched at a $40 price point.
Maybe you weren't, either, in which case I have no idea what you're talking about.

Are overhead projectiles like a thing in MK?
Osu 16 Bit

No but they're a thing in this game. Most air projectiles that have a downward arc are overheads.
Just a few, Noob Saibots normal shadow clone, and Kenshis spirit slash thing, if you want to call it a projectile.
Possibly Sheevas fireball, but it's been awhile.
