I hope Shocker is back in this game. I think Yuri needs to tell him whether or not Shocker can escape him, and where he'd chase him to.

The funny thing is that Shocker should wreck Black Suit Spidey. Vibrations are one of the black suits big weaknesses. This did not happen in the cartoon cause they thought Shocker's blasts were electric, and not vibration based.

Forgot the entire premise of Suicide Squad once and was wondering 'Why the hell is Captain Boomerang on the team instead of Mr. Freeze?'

Well Captain Boomerang has better tech than Freeze.

But lets say I were Waller and had to pick an Ice villain, Mr. Freeze would still be once of my last choices. Captain Cold would be my first, and Killer Frost my second.

The biggest thing about Captain Cold is that he far more powerful than Freeze and doesn't kill people without a pretty good reason.

His gun manipulates absolute zero, and at the default setting puts people into temporary stasis with the ice just being a side effect of the intense cold it creates. In several settings it auto freezes things around him and slows stuff down. He's able to reliably tag Flash cause Flash gets slower when near him. He can of course make his gun lethal, but he's not a fan of doing so.

Cold is also very professional, which is a thing I would like in an agent. Once got annoyed someone compared him to Freeze cause Freeze's gun shoots snow and ice, while his creates Cold.

Lmao at the weapons having sets based on heroes and villains because you are scavenging from their equipment that was left behind when they died.

Man I don't like that.

It's not completely without precedent.



I think Ultimate Hawkeye also used a gun, but that character was basically Bullseye if he wasn't a psychopathic serial killer.

I vaguely recall that Ult Hawkeye pretty much became a psychopathic killer anyway.

The penguin is in the game. You capture him and make him your arms dealer. Your support team consists of penguin, Hiro Okamura Toyman, Gizmo, Flagg, Waller, new character named Hacker whobisbjust thinker but a black lady, and an enslaved child Poison Ivy.

Wouldn't Calculator have made more sense than making a new character.

This is the perspective of a paid assassin regarding someone who kicked his rear end, sent him to prison, then made a hologram for children about kicking his rear end. Floyd is projecting his frustration of America’s racism onto a black guy who is accepted uncritically (mostly for kicking his rear end). I think that’s good writing. It’s not a Top Dog/Under Dog or Fences, but people are treating it as if rocksteady wrote it from a neutral perspective.

It doesn’t seem in character for Deadshot.

Deadshot is an rear end in a top hat who became an assassin for the thrills. He’s not someone I would ever associate with giving a poo poo about America Racism. (Though he’s also weird cause Rocksteady decided to retcon him despite him showing up in two previous games as a different character)

Just learned that the final battle you don't even fight Brainiac properly, he just turns into Flash and fights you with all of Flashes moves with extra hazards from the stage.

It appears that Suicide Squad has killed WB console games.

It drove me kinda nuts during the Marvel comic event Civil War, the people tasked with taking down superheroes who disagreed with the registration act were called "Cape Killers," since barely any Marvel heroes and especially not the most well known actually wear capes.

Capes are more a Marvel villain thing.

It's extremely good if you got an early access code and are contractually forbidden from saying anything bad about the game (real)

I think that got removed (and was only for streamers). It was kind of a dumb move as impressions are very positive from people that didn't even read or know about that.

Yeah same. Though I've heard apparently she isn't very good right now, but that looks like it's the case for all melee characters.

Hela and Loki seem to be really OP. Then Dr. Strange, Wanda, Groot, Punisher, Luna, and Star-Lord. At least from what I've seen.

Looks like they will need to do some rebalancing but it looks fun and people seem to be genuinely enjoying it.

It is Alpha after all. As someone I watched said the UI and balancing will probably heavily change.
