Boon reveals the results to his "unofficial" DLC poll and something isn't adding up

noone even likes zatanna nor does anyone play her lol i didnt even know who tf she was until i looked her up smh there better be more dlc and red hood better be one of them. boon just knows how to make people mad but he must not know that if it wasnt for us him and everyone else in NRS would broke! the least you can do is attend to what the people want and not do some sneaky shit like this. its only making NRS's rep bad and eventually the amount of people who buy their games will decrease.

Lots of people like Zatanna, she is one of the most famous B tier characters in the DC universe(mostly because of sex appeal, but it still counts)

The only reason people don't play her is because she is garbage, low tier as shit, mad awkward to play, high execution, and you generally have to work very hard with her to even get bleh results.

Same thing could happen to Red Hood, if he ends up being a terrible character that is both hard to control and hard to play, doesn't matter how many fans in the world he has, no one would ever fucking touch him.

I mean I don't want to be exposed mathematically but isn't it percentages out of all te votes ?it would seem that other characters got a lil more votes along with zatanna getting more and static so there percentAges go up and red hoods goes down because less votes for him were coming in?

smh at defending these scumbags
i get that they can put whoever they want they did it with the first 4 DLC
but the last 2 were passed off as who the fans wanted when they were in fact who Boon wanted. we all wanted MMH but so did Boon, the poll was called "unofficial" but Boon teased from the start that the winner would be in and she is, but the poll was a fraud so in the end its who he wanted again, nrs still shitting on its fans yet still defended by some of them

I get your point.. i really do, but thats not the issue... its the principle of it... its the fact they Boon and NRS go out of their way to tamper with pools and results be them Official or Unofficial...its low, and honestly OFC this pool had impact Boon came straight out and said and quote "don't have to rub it in EB: I'm not. I really like Dr. Fate. But you bitches wanted Zatanna! ;)" so clearly here we see the pool impacted in getting Zatanna in

There's a couple of things that may have happened: They may have tampered, they may have miscalculated the numbers in the beginning (server problem through the site they used or something), they may have thrown out BS numbers in the beginning to give a rough estimate, he may have been trolling with Red Hood getting second or been mistaken, etc...Think about this, why tamper with the numbers to put Static in second? Regardless of who came out second only first was selected as of now so why throw Red Hood into third? Yes, it ended being something of an "actual poll" but it was never billed as such in the beginning. Even if Red Hood came in first, if they still released Zatanna and just threw a Red Hood skin on Deathstroke then that's their choice. There is literally no reason to tamper with the results.




except it did impact a thing (or was supposed to) the point of the poll was for NRS to put the winner in the game and let the people vote on it, Boon likes to be hinty and mysterious so he didnt say straight up "the poll winner will be in the game" but he never does, its less fun i guess. point is its a fixed poll a cheap tactic, for all intents and purposes a lie that we were in control of the next dlc when it was just another predetermined character and Zatanna might not have been the most requested it easily could have been Red Hood, or even Static or Swamp thing. so does it matter? Yes, will it change anything? sadly no Scumbags gonna Scumbag

Again, it wasn't billed as such in the beginning, just a "hey, who would you guys like to see make it" never saying "the winner will be put in". Otherwise why not throw a bunch more fan favorites into the mix and have an actual "fan favorite" instead of "fan favorite from a small pool of characters"? There's no way to determine if this was a fix or an error on the part of NRS or the site they used so I wouldn't state that as "fact". If it's just a lie then why even have the poll at all? They knew how many people wanted Lobo in without a poll so they put him in, it could've been the same for Zatanna if they wanted. It doesn't matter because, again, Batgirl lost the poll against Powergirl and Supergirl, she was in third place no less, but still got in over the other two. It's about who NRS and/or WB decide to put in ultimately, there was a lot of support for Lobo and Zatanna so they got in.

NO.
he didnt start revealing results until after the poll was closed, the top 2 came over a month after the poll had closed. theres no excuse he tampered with the poll or is showing us fake results then or now


That doesn't mean anything, he could have taken several pictures of the poll at several points in its duration, and just choose a random one because it didn't matter, because Zatanna was in the lead in all of them.

its just 2 weeks since zatanna so calm down ... Maybe with last two characters they want to wait more.
its more than that
before MMH was released Boon confirmed he wasnt the last character, the first 4 were planned the last 2 were done do to "fan demand" also the injustice twitter stopped responding to any fans right around Zatanna's release and Boon still has said nothing about new characters.

no he showed us the results and said 1st and 2nd place it was Zatanna and Red Hood long after the poll was closed. of course she was in first in all the results the poll was tampered with

Maybe there were more votes entered? More numbers, percentages change. Basic math. Besides, wtf wants Red Hood/Robin when we have Nightwing already. lolz Team Static

the batgirl supergirl poll wasnt billed as a DLC poll and it was last year before as many people knew about there were probably only a couple hundred votes it doesnt compare to this one at all. he HINTED that the winner would be in the game, he never says anything straightforward (Except deconfirming sub zero). there were Zatanna fans and Lobo but they got in ecause its who nrs wanted not because of fans, same as Batgirl sae as Scorpion

For those saying, they can put in the game who ever they want, i can say sure they can its their game ofc they can add who ever they want in it... but its still a business, without fans of your product and company you cannot survive, and got knows NRS doesnt have the best reputation around atm wih Mk9 being a fiasco and the first Season pass a 2nd fiasco and some of the unbalance in this game a 3rd fiasco ( but this 3rd one you cant really count since every FG has this problem so we will let this one slide) and now with this being the 4th fiasco, i mean like it or not some ppl be it Red hood fans or not do get offended by this sort of stuff i being one of them... and if they do this now who is to say they dont do worse later... i for one as of MMh have no reasons to support NRS in any way... so as a business this kinda stuff affects us "me" as a customer and Fan

That doesn't mean a thing, it was an unofficial poll all the same. What was the exact wording of both these polls when they were started? He hinted that the winner would get in? I'd like to see that as well. If you think that Lobo didn't get in because of fans then I don't know what to tell you as Lobo is NOT a character that's on the tip of most people's tongue (and as such runs the risk of not selling well) but the fans were asking about him a lot so he got in. Zatanna also had a lot of fans considering she was constantly in the top 2 of the poll and her getting in is a direct result of it since you're saying this poll is "real" to some capacity.

poll was closed when he started revealing results
Wasn't the reason the kept showing results was cause they were counting the votes or like percentages, and it was never set. Cause why would he reveal more than once if it was the final results. Until he finally said who the winner was after all the percentages were done?

THE REAL QUESTION HERE IS WHERE IS STATIC SHOCK. THAT'S THE REAL QUESTION GENTLEMEN. I ask BOON for TWO..count'em 2 things. Zatanna and Static. I got one, now results show I should have both. BOON I HOPE INJUSTICE SELLS HORRIDLY ON PC. YOU'RE A SCUMBAG BOON not a Good Man Gabe.

#Kappa... now on 2nd thought, there is some serious emotion up there... somewhere... point is...

Again, that means literally nothing, Boon or NRS could have countless screen grabs of the pool in various states as it was open.

What is the point of tampering with a poll? Even if Red Hood somehow came in first, that still means Zatanna is still second, and at that point, they could just say she won and never shown us the full results, or not even say she won, just put her out and say a lot of people voted for her in the poll, and it would be completely true.

There is no point in fucking with the poll, unless my first post was right, and Boon just fucking hates you and wants to drive you crazy.

Or flipped the numbers between her and Red Hood and called it a day instead of changing every single number of every character polled.
