Is Injustice 2 considered broken???

Hey patch! Had a lot of fun playing you! I've been talking about it for awhile but I'd really like to get a GAF KOTH going lol. Where are you from? I'm kind of resigned to online tournaments since there is virtually no scene here in NW Florida and there's very few of those as is :(. I hope to compete more soon. I always feel bad asking Comp to play because I know he's got people constantly messaging him and don't wanna bother him haha. With that said if you're reading this Comp, I'm down for some sets tonight if you are lol.

If there's enough people interested I'll start a GAF room tonight. I need to put Tekken down as it's probably making me rusty in Injustice.

Just quit the select screen whenever they lock Supergirl/Darkseid/Deadshot/Dr.Fate.

Scrub guaranteed 90% of the time. You're better off taking the loss and finding a proper match with a person who is not mentally handicapped.

Now I'm 'mentally handicapped'?!

Stay classy!

It's not anyone's fault if your main is a scrub magnet, that doesn't mean you're scrub, just that your favorite character is a universally hated pos. I had to deal with it in MK9 with Kano but it's k maybe in Injustice 3 she doesn't have a toxic playstyle.

Anyways I'm surprised at how good this runs online. Barely any lag, which is incredible for a NR game. Sucks that it's basically waves of Batmans and Subzeros though.

OK there bud.

And before you pull the inevitable "I main a shitty character" OS, know that I also play Wonder Woman and do not hate any of those characters.

Implying people are mentally handicapped for the character they use and posting shit like "Trigger Warnings". You'll go far here at NeoGAF.

Nice non-response.
And "toxic playstyle" lol. Calling people mentally handicapped for using a certain character in a game. Embarrassing af fam. You have scrub mentality.

This is not a complain thread..
It is just an observation.

First of all, I love injustice 2. It is probably one of the deepest must polished fighting titles I have played...

A little about me.. I love all fighting games.. I grew up with them.. I always gravitate to play fair with all of them. From Street Fighter 2 all way to Virtua Fighter. I am not an expert but I am not a scrub either.

My gripe with injustice is the unbalanced gameplay. My main character is Black Canary. I can go to town with pretty much anyone online.

As you may know, black canary doesn't have any powers. Her character relies in simple hand to hand combat.

However, I tend to confront several beyond cheap online opponents. As soon as I pick Canary, they rush to Superman or DR Fate. During the whole match, they literally just stay back and keep shooting at me with projectiles. The worst has to be DR Fate where is literally 2 frames between fireballs..
I can try to dodge, roll forward, time projectiles but it is just beyond impossible.

My only save is canary's scream special but even when I manage to stun superman, or fate, I proceed to jump or get close to continue my attacks but they usually manage to back off using one of their wake up attacks..

Then, they once again continue to step away and shoot projectiles once again...

This is now a running joke as I see. Too many online are doing it when they see Canary.

What do they gain from this?? Does this make them a better opponent online? How does a win like this even encourage anyone to play??

Sorry for the long read, has anyone else experienced this with this game?

BTW.. I am aware I can also just choose another character. But shouldn't a game like this play fair for every character in the roster?

Characters with projectiles are really good. They build meter from far away, they gain meter from doing a special and hitting on block, and the projectile takes a decent amount of chip. If you can't get around it, there's no point of going in other than for entertainment purposes or out of boredom.

There's always a way to get around something, but people don't want to go into training mode or ask or practice with a friend, so they'll throw it in the broken category out of being lazy...and I'll be the first to admit it lol. I don't want to go into training mode and figure out how to get out of something, but I still acknowledge that it's my fault that I don't know what to do in a certain situation.
 
Balancing a fighting is incredibly difficult.

"Fair for everyone" you choose to play as is a lofty goal.

One of the most impressive things about Smash 4 is the number of viable characters, even when there are really really good ones.

Goddamnit, I wish I was cool :(. Lol, it's okay. You missed a double homicide, Crack pebbles just wiped the floor with us for awhile haha.

I swear I was in awe that guy was just consistent and ruthless execution. Just didnt give af. Never spared any mercy.

You guys are both very solid!

Oh yeah Sinkfla and CrackPebbles are on another plane that I hope to ascend to.

edit- Btw, 'd be happy to bring my Wonder Woman too. So we can have a legit 'melee' battle.

Thanks for the kind words patch! Your wonder woman is looking real good so far so keep at it! Focus on mid-range control with her shield bash/air shield bash.

I'm back home for a couple hours in case someone wants to play.

I got to do some stuff around the house but I'll get on very soon if you're down to play! I just need to order my own body bag from Amazon first lol. I'm terrified of your canary even more now that she's been buffed :0.

Edit: Got to play Comp but had to go unfortunately :(. That Canary... Damn.

This is me as Canary vs. one of the best Deadshots out rn. I lose more than I win but the matches are really close.

It's really just playing and learning.

As someone who enjoys fighting games but haven't played any nether realms game since MK9, holy cow that is ridiculously stupid, I'm sorry but as an observer who has never played the game, is it really fair that he has instant recovery and can shoot again instantly after another shot? It's one thing too to avoid one angle but he literally can shoot in every angle. I have never seen anything like this since marvel 3 but even marvel 3 gives you 2 characters and more options to deal with something so abusive. How do you even react to how fast those projectiles are?

You walk them down as in you walk, then duck, then walk as just holding down gives you a low block and most projectiles are highs so you can just duck them. You also get meter burn roll which has invincible frames and goes under all high projectiles while covering almost the entire screen in an instant. This game also has options to deal with zoning just like any other.
 
This thread is hilarious. A couple of days ago I was raging because every ranked match I entered Supergirl was there to greet me. I really despise her design, but what did I do.
I went in training mode and now I'm learning the character. I now know an optimal punish for her dumb teleport punch, learned what I can do after which combostring, etc.
She is really really strong since the latest patch, imo top 3, her strings got a lot more safe and she got a pretty significant damage buff. But now I know how to approach this fight, so if my opponent isn't good enough, I'll beat him.
Match up knowledge is really important, without it you are the one who's actually spamming moves.


And a black canary or a flash is a zoners nightmare. If they get close to you it's really though to reset things to neutral again.

Matchup knowledge? in MY fighter? nah i'll just keep using the generic BnB's and if it dont work call for nerfs
 
I do feel like matchup knowledge is more important in NRS games than in other games. So is zoning.
but that's ok, not every game has to be the same thing.

I realize you're not gonna listen to us about dealing with Supergirl but will you listen to advice from the devs? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/165190604?t=41m00s
