I've done most of the guild multiverse missions multiple times and never encountered any of the bullshit you guys are mentioning. Which probably means that when I do encounter it, it'll be an unending onslaught of bullshit.

No special moves/meter burn as Darkseid is extremely rough - he's pretty barebones without them.

I've been super busy this past week but I try to do some guild mv when I can.

Sorry, guy.
Quick question:

I'm a busy dad of 2. Also kind of not a Fighting game wiz.

Also Guild stuff is challenging. But I am trying. If I win, even a single match.. (in a metaverse event with like, 10 opponents...) it says I earn Guild Credits after each match. Is that contributing? Or do I need to complete the entire "event" for my contributions to register?

You get everything you earn match by match, and a big prize if you do the whole tower. You're contributing, but only doing the whole thing puts credit to completing the tower itself.

And of course, completing the tower is my goal... just don't always get a chance. Especially if banging my head against a tough opponent...

Thanks for clarifying!

Typically the no special/meter challenges are accompanied by brain dead AI. I just smash them into a corner and put mix-ups into them forever

Yesterday I spent an hour on the sacrifice tower culminating in meter-regenerating instakill-super Cheetah and I swear I almost developed laser vision just to stare a hole through Ed Boon's face

I got Batman's Alternate Noir palette at the end of it though so... Worth it?

He appears only for the Green Lantern chapter and a brief moment in voice only during the Superman ending. His tower ending is awesome though, play that.

Also after beating Deadshot's tower, I'm surprised they went with a white version of Floyd. Considering how much Harley looks like Margot Robbie, I'm shocked they didn't cash in on the only thing anyone liked in Suicide Squad - Will Smith.

The way I learn these games is I play the story, then when a new character comes up, I jump out and do their tutorials plus their tower to get the hang of them. So far this means I have basically only learned the heroic characters. Also it will probably take me another week to beat the story

Only about 3 characters classified as villains get chapters.

if/when DC and WB decides to take another crack at a Green Lantern film, I hope they find a way to get Atrocitus in there because this dude owns and I didn't know who he was until the game. dude is just a really hamfisted rep for an angry club of guys and gals who like to punch poo poo and vomit acidblood.

Atrocitus is actually the guy who is responsible for Hal Jordan getting his ring (he kills the previous Green Lantern of Earth's sector), so working him in wouldn't be too difficult.

I did this and could have stopped it, but nothing in nature ever follows a gaussian curve. Sure, they'll tell you that it does. They say that every five minutes someone dies in a car accident, but how often are there seven hundred and sixty one armless and legless corpses in one hangar?

Are you in Goon Lantern Corps? I changed the background from a blue circle to a green ribbon a few days ago. Symmetry and poo poo.

He's a fun character but is also extremely prone to navelgazing soliloquy in the comics, which may surprise you given his concept. New 52 Red Lanterns got a little painful at points because of it, with whole pages devoted to him monologing dramatically when I just wanted him to wreck some fools. One of the random quotes you see in the online mode menus is actually Dex-Starr calling him out on this.

It's a recent retcon, but yeah.

Atrocitus and his imprisoned buddies are the ones who put all the ideas about Blackest Night and death prophecies in Abin Sur's head that lead to his paranoia about using his ring and eventually his death when he tries to bring Atrocitus to show him where Earth is.

He's a legit red lantern and is just extremely loyal to Atrocitus when nearly all reds are mindless berserkers.

Dex-starr is an incredibly angry Earth cat
His owner was abused and murdered, cops kicked him out of the house thinking he was stray, and was thrown in the river by punks

All this was enough to piss him off enough to attract a red ring

He got vengeance on his owner's killer because he's a good kitty.
