After picking up the last of Wonder Woman's movie gear, I went over to the Scratching Post event to train up some other characters. The event's boss fight was a level 20 Robin, and my highest level characters were my Green Lantern and WW, both level 13. Robin absolutely crushed my GL with juggle combos and I swapped in WW with her all-epic gear. Still got thrashed, and noticed that Robin kept relying on that dash-in attack, and in this fight it would keep sucking me in like a vortex, interrupting my moves well before closing the gap, even if I was jumping. What a bullshit attack! What was I supposed to do to counter this AI creep? I must have lost another half-dozen times to the same tactics, with Robin's combos eating half a lifebar each time I fell for his traps. Turns out, blocking stops the move in its tracks and leaves just enough recovery frames for me to use one of my piddly 3-hit combos back at him. Also, I got my shield toss timing and distance practiced to a bullseye, so I could keep him at bay then bait the dash and punish it. Plus Catwoman assist was there to break his combos if things got iffy. I did very little damage, but it added up over time and I won. Hooray! Then, just as my loot was announced, the game crashed. drat IT. I reloaded the fight, started all over, and... defeated Robin pretty handily, actually. His AI loops and weaknesses were found and countered. Leveling up in fighting games feels good.

Injustice 2 is leagues ahead graphically but I think the arenas and transitions in IJ 1 were way more interesting visually

Injustice 2 does the same weird thing as MKX where the game can clearly handle 60fps at all times but for whatever reason the cinematics, supermoves and arena transitions are locked to 30fps. It can be a pretty jarring experience when you're phasing in and out of those.

My internet finally works properly, so I was thinking of joining a goon guild for ps4. I don't mind doing multiverse stuff for the guild, but also really like ranked matches and player matches, is there any recommendation for which of the goon guilds works best for both?

I just started playing Ranked yesterday and won 10 games, which was enough for an achievement that apparently 5.2% of PS4 players have lol.

I have just Red Robin left to get to level 20 and then it's waiting for each DLC character to come out. Not that I will stop playing Injustice 2, there's still grinding for the perfect gear for each fighter.

frakeaing HAMSTER DANCE posted:the arenas and transitions in IJ 1 were way more interesting visually Yeah, I had the same feeling. I also feel that interactables had a much bigger impact in Inj1 and they're way toned down this time. The best stages in any fighting game ever are still MK9's, though.

I wish Injustice 2 had a training stage like Mortal Kombat X's.

I really liked the recent story arc that posited that Bane and Bruce Wayne were pretty much the same person forced to grow up in opposite environments. Edit: that also concluded with Bane rip and tearing his way through the majority of Arkham's population. Buck Wildman fucked around with this message at 15:14 on Jun 5, 2017 |

FunkMonkey posted:I really liked the recent story arc that posited that Bane and Bruce Wayne were pretty much the same person forced to grow up in opposite environments. much like the excellent reformation of the Riddler, DC decided to turn back the clock on Bane's great story arcs and turn him back into a loving dipshit. I never understood why, especially since characters like Hush, Simon Hurt, Court of Owls, and endless League of Shadows shenanigans were proof you could still throw new and exciting villains into the books. At least Injustice does a better job at depicting Bane than the Arkham games, which flat-out turns him into a mentally inept hulk.

They explained that one away in Arkham Origins, though. He gets super cheesed that Batman is whooping his poo poo so he overdoses on Venom and fries his brain

Arkham gives Bane a happy ending, which is nice.

Venom effectively turned him into a Cholula ad rep.

Is it normal for some epic budgeted gear to be below rare tier? It seems like extra augments get some consideration in the item budget, but when the augment is "gain extra XP for not jumping" then it's pretty much worthless against a better stat stick rare.

That does happen. The extra XP for not jumping stat seems to eat up a lot of the "resources" of a gear piece, so they always seem to be kind of sucky. I've also noticed that gear that is part of a set tends to be worse individually until you complete the set, and the bonuses offset the lacking nature of the separate pieces.

Goon Lantern report! Sorry for not being on in a while. I'll hop on this evening and max out my guild contribution to make up for it, y'all. Been busy with other games and real life stuff. I've been trying out Bane lately, and he's pretty rad. If you guys haven't already, try using characters that you maybe aren't too keen on. I've been surprised at who I find myself liking.

Finally stopped screwing around in single player and guild multiverse stuff and did some KoTH and found out I was completely unable to do anything. Then I found there's a "turn on online input delay" so I've been trying to get used to that. Hopefully I can get back to "doesn't look like a complete idiot" soon.

This week's guild towers seemed a lot more onerous than last week's -- I don't know if every guild gets the same? Maybe things are a little more sluggish since everyone's playing Tekken 7. Looking forward to the reset...

It would help if the reward for the boss wasn't a silver box. Or maybe gear isn't a big motivator now that there's been so much time to collect already.
