I'm reenacting the shazam scene from the first game right now but it's hard to focus the sun through a magnifying glass when it's an overcast day

So it may've been addressed earlier in the thread and I saw in the OP that Ultimate edition should contain all DLC (?), is there any other considerations to the different versions and from where purchased that are especially compelling to be aware of?

I don't see this game holding my interest super-long term and am looking forward to it, just questioning whether I'd get the value out of 1.5x the cost of the game for just more DLC characters. I'd love to be wrong about this though.

if you're not looking to play for the long haul then I wouldn't recommend spending an additional 30 to 40 bucks on anything more than the standard edition

It took like 4-5 months I think to get out all the six in the first game so it might be a heck of a wait to get the nine here.

They didn't release the first game on PC until after all the DLC was out, so I would suspect not for a couple months. They haven't actually said anything yet.

Don't think so. After what happened with MKX I'd stay far, far away from any PC port they release, though.

If they do it in house it should be fine.

The problems were with the studio that did the port, not NRS. After NRS took control of the PC port back, the fixed just about everything.

I can't imagine they'd just throw another hosed-up port at the wall yet again outright when it already has an indefinite delay.

Hmm you're on the right track. To complete the mobile gacha game experience just smash 5 comics together with a stapler to upgrade them and paint two yellow stars on them.

Flip all the comics stacked together to a random page and jab your finger down. If it's not pointing at Supergirl, Superman, or Pikachu, burn the comics, buy new versions, and repeat.

It's even funnier because Mad Max and Arkham Knight were released within a couple weeks of each other.

The point being that the game being published by WB is almost irrelevent, attention must be paid to which studio is actually doing the work.

Monolith, Avalanche, and NRS all seem to do good work. High Voltage (MKX) and Iron Galaxy(Arkham Knight) should probably be avoided.

In my defense, the incredibly bad Arkham Knight and MKX ports stick out in my mind more than games that work like they should.

Not that that means I was right.

I'm convinced arkham knight is the reason Steam started the refund policy. can't remember a huge game's quality so astronomically bad that it got legit pulled from the store.

The War Z or whatever the gently caress it was called was a similar disaster that resulted in a mass refund.

I have the mobile game downloaded. It plays like Marvel Contest of Champions basically. The framerate is really bad though, hopefully they can iron that out.

Regarding PC version:

quote:

NetherRealm Studios previously release part 3 of the "Shattered Alliances" cinematic trailer, which focused on Supergirl's side of the story and also marks the return of Black Adam in "Injustice 2's" roster. Joining him are other new and returning characters like Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, The Flash, Aquaman, Cyborg, Blue Beetle, Green Arrow, Black Canary, Firestorm, Robin, Swamp Thing, Doctor Fate, Atrocitus, Gorilla Grodd, Poison Ivy, Catwoman, Cheetah, Captain Cold, Bane, Braniac and Darkseid.

In other news, it seems that PC users will have to wait for "Injustice 2" in the PC platform soon as game producer Ed Boon stated that they will launch the PC version in a later date, WCCFTech reported.

Either story mode like Baraka and Rain in MKX or Robin has a shader and gear ability that makes him play like Injustice 1 Nightwing.

Probably a prison escape thing early in the story before Damian makes the switch.

Boo. I understand not wanting to put legacy characters in as DLC, but missing half the cast of the original hurts a bit. Grundy was my guy, but I guess Bane will have to do now.

In case anyone was wondering, the characters we lost from IJ1 are:

Ares
Deathstroke
Doomsday
Hawkgirl
Killer Frost
Luthor
Nightwing
Raven
Shazam
Sinestro
Grundy
Lobo
Batgirl
Zod
Martian Manhunter
Zatanna

And the new characters we gained are:
Supergirl
Atrocitus
Deadshot
Grodd
Blue Beetle
Robin
Ivy
Brainiac
Canary
Swamp Thing
Cheetah
Scarecrow
Dr. Fate
Firestorm
Captain Cold
Darkseid
Starfire
Red Hood


I think on balance we ended up with a better cast. Cheetah is lame, but everyone else is cool. The IJ1 cast has like five or six Cheetahs.
