Don't know how anybody else fared since I'm pretty lousy at fighting games, but that Superman fight at the end of the Darkseid event kicked my rear end for a while before I finally managed a win.

For me it's scarecrow and bane - As much as I don't like WW in this game, I think I am going to try and stick with her. It would be great if we could trade gear. - or awful and then it will turn into mmo people messaginging everyone asking for real money for it - So I guess I am good with the way it is and earn it myself.

Only thing I don't like is mobile unlocks. I am able to sign in to get the grid costume but I can't actually play it all I get is a black screen. No more mobile unlocks!

I can't specifically recall the tutorial right now but in injustice compared to say street fighter, the faster you input stuff the better. You can dial in most of your string before it happens and it will come out all the same.

Also hit start, TURN OFF RELEASE CHECK. That's the biggest thing I can recommend to anyone/everyone.

Thanks, it's in the Harley Quinn tutorial where they ask you to cancel b2 into db3, 1. I have done it 100 times as fast as I can and no dice.

Then for that what you want to do is cancel into the db3 before the b2 finishes connecting. For single normal moves into specials like that you just gotta do it all at once, not street fighter style where you do move, connect, then special.

He isn't radically different. He is basically the same but slightly worse. He still hits hard, trait doesn't seem to buff damage as much though. Air laser seems much more unsafe on block, stand 3 def got recovery nerfed cause you can't do insane corner setups like you used to. B2 and its different routes are a pretty fun new addition, I am sure there is proper real stuff for it but I haven't figured it out yet.

A lot of the old BnB's work-ish with slight differences. But f23 is still super easy to hit confirm into anything into big damage that a lot of other people have to work a lot harder for than Superman does. I haven't played him much but I am putting more time into him soon.

I'll have to play around with him more, I tried out a few of the old BnB's and couldn't quite get them to work. He does seem more or less the complete package, though.

Anybody got any cool Darkseid tech?

2,2,3 got nerfed. You can't cancel it at all (even supermove) and the recovery means you can't use f2, 3 after it anymore. It also seems to have slightly less range since it's harder to combo from a max range crossup 2. You can still use 2,2,x breath (press 2 really quickly twice and input superbreath) though so it doesn't mater that much, but it used to be one of the easiest ways of getting big damage with him. It did need to be nerfed since it was stupidly powerful when combined with f 2,3.

So online ranked matches don't give any kind of gear rewards? I've played about 20 and haven't gotten a thing (Both win and lose). What's the point except for "bragging" rights? (Yes it's fun fighting other people but I tink I'll go back to the Sinle player multiverse.)

vvvvv: Must be my random luck of the draw on getting nothing. I'll keep trying then. VVVVVEdit: okay now I got one for losing but not any for winning haha, it makes no sense.

I'm not at all familiar with the character, but based purely on his showing in this game, Dr. Fate seems like kind of a dweeb who gets owned a lot. I'm going to assume this is accurate, as I didn't know poo poo about Black Adam before Injustice 1 taught me that he was a nigh invincible jerk who liked to punch very much, and that seems to be canon.

It always seems like Fate gets owned, but then the Helmet exploits some magical loophole and undoes everything bad that happens to him (for the most part).

Also, while I miss Captain Marvel(gently caress everyone I'm not calling him Shazam) it's nice to see that Black Adam is still pimp.
