Interactables need to be disabled for tournament play

[Akromaniac27]

Probably the only post I can agree with. Truthfully, no character, let alone the game itself, doesn't NEED interactibles. Its old af and clearly the community is handicapped enough to still need just one more crutch, but all in all they wouldn't be a problem if they didn't track, weren't unblockable, or OTG. Its like setting up a marathon and then planting a bike 1 mile away and whoever gets there first can do as they please. Not everyone is fast enough to get there, and not everyone would have the same stamina to endure the whole thing. But hey, this community needs it

 

[1man3letters]

I didn't list every character;
HG
BA
GL
Cyborg
WW
Scorpion

were not mentioned and will undoubtedly be buffed from the removal of interactables.

What you posted originally was not "what is the net effect" but rather, "these characters are the one's that are impacted by such and such removal".

emmm no scorpion would 100% not be buffed from the removal of interactables.
his 60-70%+ corner interactable combos gone.
50% 1bar+trait stage bounce combos gone.
roomba,pig,batcave rockets/barrells gone.
using a stage bounce and trait to start vortex when u have no meter gone.


this would buff him?!?!?
what drugs are u taking? (and can i please have some )

....

anyways more on topic dunno why zod and mmh getting the brunt of this, every character has setups for unscaled interactables. zod prob abuses it worse with his trait equalling a free interactable but sure fuck it, thats the game.

(tom brady voice) 1st you try to ban characters and now u want to take out game mechanics...THIS COMMUNITY!!!

 

[pherleece]

dude you suck honestly why post something that just makes you look even more of a fool.
you use every character in the game and counterpick the shit out of everyone in tourney and still get your back blown out and rage quit lmfao . my advice just quit the game your no good at it.

you're entitled to your own opinion but we really shouldn't be telling any player to quit the game cause they are no good at it. PL can beat most people who use this site including myself.

 

[Doombawkz]

But... I like doing 40% with nearly unavoidable cars and motorcycles.
And doing 2 bar 100% with BGBs

 

[Vandy]

I'm interested in this thread. How about a poll

 

[Zyos]

Lord help us KTP's been gone like a month or less and the community had digressed to day 1 already @K7L33THA @GGA 16 Bit @GGA Slips come back!!!!!!

 

[LEGI0N47]

So many pearls of wisdom in this thread.

 

[Juggs]

@Perfect Legend I said this about a year ago, along with others. Nothing changed, so I quit the game. It's not like I was only losing because of interactables, but that's not the point.

See, check it out, almost exactly a year ago: http://testyourmight.com/threads/are-interactables-too-good.33214/

And I wasn't even trying to ban them at this point, just was trying to get them nerfed so we could still use them. But said if they don't get nerfed they need to be banned. Deaf ears I guess.

It is far too late to disable interactables. We have been playing this game with them on and barely anybody has complained about them until Jupiter started winning more and do doing well with MMH. When Jupiter beat King but still didn't make it out of pools at NEC nobody was complaining about MMH. Kinda retarded to ban them because one player doing well, and let's be serious, that is why PL made this thread because he has been complaining about MMH non stop lately.

NO! It is not far too late. This game is only 1 year old and now these things are being noticed. Look at what happened to MK9 no one brought up the issue for banning stages/counter pick stages. We saw Kabal players on Rooftop Day and NO ONE said anything except get used to it or this level up bro shit. Then we say Johnny Cage and Cyrax in the Pit stage which is obviously very small. Months went on and no one said anything about it or even a top player did not speak their opinion to be heard but we now have Perfect Legend speaking his mind for Injustice? He will say the things that other people are afraid to say, the MK9 community allowed this happen even though the last patch has already been set in stone September 2011. Later on we started seeing Kenshi on the Rooftop and players counter-picking stages based on their character. This being one of the factors that killed the game and its tournament scene. Everyone in MK9 let themselves down when no one was brave to speak their mind or speak for the players who didn't want to be judged.

Obviously we are now seeing characters like Martian Manhunter and Zod controlling ALL the interactables getting extra free damage and preventing all characters from having access to those which is very unfair like MMH Teleport and Zod's Charge. Given that only 1 other character has options against them attempting to grab interactables which is Batgirl.

It is apparent that the patches are done for this game. Maybe disabling interactables could bring more life and more depth, maybe this could be the community's effort and very own "Patch" to fix the big issues now.

Do you really want to see Martian Manhunter, Zod, Batgirl, Aquaman to kill the life of Injustice and possible future tournaments? Look what MK9 left us with Kabal, Kenshi, Kung Lao, Cyrax, Smoke, Sonya, Kitana and the rest of the cast is irrelevant. Injustice has way more character variety who have chances to win tournaments and place high, disable interactables could very well save this game from its inevitable path.

Lets all make the right decision as a community this time and have them disabled at future tournaments.

We need players like you who aren't afraid to speak and have got the balls to say what other players don't want to say. It's not too late, it's now or never!

 

[AK XEN0M0RPH]

If you turn off interactable objects, Zod becomes mediocre, so I vote no.

Are you REALLY saying that Zod is only good because of his ability to setup almost guaranteed interactibles? Please tell me youre not saying this.

 

[KIllaByte]

There are certain stages that are amazingly designed. (Fortress of Solitude, Wayne Manor, Ferris Faircraft, Gotham Roof)
Others that are... not.
Some interactables add great depth, and are satisfying and fulfilling to use when they create awesome mixups.
Holding some of them add another element of meta to space control.
Good Injustice players have all practiced with them on, and we're not throwing that practice away.
They're another thing that set Injustice apart from the rest of the games.
We need them, along with our character gameplay variety.
(Cyborg, Joker, Shazam all need them.)

 

[KIllaByte]

Perhaps a stage list?
Stages with broken OTGS go, maybe?
A question:
Do the interactables stay on the screen at the start of a match when they're disabled?

No, just no lol.

 

[ryublaze]

Can't they just hotfix the damage some interactables do like they did with the pushblock bug?

 

[LanceMonsoon]

I don't really care, but I do think it's dumb that some match ups change based off pure luck at the stage select screen. MMH would still be #1 though IMO.

 

[WayoftheFist]

I've said this since April of last year. I just dropped it because nobody around here wants to hear it.

 

[Pan1cMode]

emmm no scorpion would 100% not be buffed from the removal of interactables.

Lol, I'll be honest. I have absolutely no idea how scorpion plays at all.

You're right, he does get nerfed without a BG bounce and does lose some setups too.

pertaining to MK9 characters used: Mileena, Sektor, Cage, Jax, Shang irrelevant?

 

[G4S Claude VonStroke]

Ok Back when I used to play in May 2013 I ran some sets with j360 with no interactables. No lie, it started to feel like I was playing a fighting game. I had much more fun and immediately we started to play more footsies. I think it's way better. No one was relying on throwing drones or gimmicks it was pretty cool

 

[pumpkincream]

reptile, liu, skarlet, freddy, raiden...

 

[SonicFox5000]

I personally like the interactables, but idc if they stay in tourny or not.
Removing them only buffs BG <3

 

[EMPEROR PRYCE]

so... were cyrax resets LESS broken than interactables? or did everyone want those gone as well?

 

[RTM2004]

No, just no lol.

lol

Have fun fighting Sinestro, Zod, Deathstroke and Martian throwing shit at you and zoning your ass Oh! and Batgirl blows up dynamite shit in your face.

What Perfect Legend brings up, this could very well be a universal buff for you and other characters but you are just too stupid to realize it.

 

[Jaku2011]

I still don't see how this doesn't make bad character worse while being a slap on the wrist at best to the top characters.

 

[EMPEROR PRYCE]

and it could also nerf some characters who could use interactables to their advantage (NOT JUST THROWABLE ONES) and change the ENTIRE meta of a game that has been developing its meta for the past year. This game recieved such a BAD rep at evo last year and now we're getting a shit ton of exposure and people are finally beginning to see the hype and diversity in this game. it got accepted by MLG for christ sake and people pretty much want to stop and restart the meta from scratch?

people only see interactables, and think OMG otgs and 30% free damage and all these misconceptions, while yes all these things are possible theres a lot more to it. having the interactables on the screen just adds a whole other layer of "footsies" and "spacing" to the game. Lets say, I'm nightwing and i have a life lead on grundy on waynes manor, my job is to space myself properly so i can avoid any interactable he chooses to use. and even still, if you're standing and someone just randomly throws an interactable you can MB through it for baby damage and possibly punish because of the crazy recovery most interactables have. I'm not defending interactables because i play power characters, or those who abuse them.. i play nightwing and zatanna. All i'm saying is that it's a part of the game and has been and plays a VERY big part in the games meta. if you have/had trouble with people just throwing shit at you.. thats your fault, there are ways to avoid it.
