If the gears work like they do in the mobile game, then it's going to suck. I HATE the Injustice gear system.

If it's like a variation mid-match system, then that will be fun.

Either way, it looks like it'll be a grind or 'pay to play' like the MK krypt.

I hope they keep Tournament and competitive players in mind, also if i go to a friends house, I wonder how that will work to get my character

Loot drops in a fighting game. I fucking love it. I have no idea how that's going to work at tournaments, though. Maybe a code tied to your character's specific load out?

Also....what's with only announcing its release on PS4? Hopefully it's on the Xbox One, as well. It will be better for the game that way. Look what happened with SFV.

Gear will most likely work as a pseudo-variation system. Every piece of gear you equip will have a distinct appearance that lets opponents know exactly what your character can do before the match begins. Think of it as build-a-variation.

What I'm worried about is how you go about acquiring these gear upgrades (no microtransactions pls) and how it will impact the competitive aspect of the game. Maybe you earn gear by leveling a character up similar to how you acquire pieces for your Kombat Kard in MKXL? That way tournament consoles can be grinded pretty easily and everyone can have their upgrades ready to go. Although the "loot drop" bit is concerning, as I don't think you should randomize something like this.

It's certainly interesting. Curious to see how this plays out.

Just throw it out, and hope for the best!
I have a feeling that it's gonna be like the Krypt unlockables were you can just play and unlock them all eventually or just pay to get them all which is what most tourny host will get to have an even playing field for everyone

So....huh.

Supergirl confirmed, as predicted. Pretty much a given with her show and needing more female characters.

Doubting more and more that Atrocitus is in the game at all.

I don't know about anyone else, but that trailer seemed pretty dark, as in I could barely see what was going on.

Also..Batman activiates his green shit not to fight Superman, but to fight Flash....somaybe it isn't kryptonite at all, but something else.

I'm surprised how little it gives away....guessing it does not continue on from the first in terms of story at all, and may be set in a completely different universe.

The gear system sounds potentially amazing, if everyone can build up their characters to be different.

Not sure I like every character having the shifting armor, but whatever.

What really upsets me though......is they still didn't give Batman white eyes. Damn it...he just looks foolish to me with his baby blues peeping out from his mask of terror.

Whatever though. Dc characters. NRS game. I am so in. Going to preorder as soon as I can, and then I'll drop another $40 for the extra money grabbing shit they release after the season pass or whatever runs out.

Injustice 2 continues the epic cinematic story introduced in Injustice: Gods Among Us as Batman and his allies work towards putting the pieces of society back together while struggling against those who want to restore Superman’s regime. In the midst of the chaos, a new threat appears that will put Earth’s existence at risk. Players can play from the biggest DC roster ever offered in a fighting game, from classic fan favorites such as Batman, Superman, Supergirl and Aquaman, to astonishing new villains like Atrocitus and Gorilla Grodd. Battles will take place across arenas that have evolved in scale and span across iconic locations such as Metropolis, Gotham City and Atlantis.

I love personalization and all...but I'm with the rest of you: the gear system scares the hell out of me for multiple reasons.

Putting microtransations aside for a minute: Even *IF* they include a tournament/competitive mode which disables them or whatever, balancing a fighter is hard/impossible enough as it is with 30+ characters.

Now they're going to have to do that *ON TOP* of being torn between balancing specific loot items as well for the casuals!!?!

...this could get messy.

Please tell me this "gear" shit is gonna be turned off for tournament and online ranked play.

Things like this normally means is those who have played and collected longer have an advantage over players who don't get to play for as long, which takes a lot of skill away from the game.

Then again, it isn't out or hasn't even been shown yet, so I'll hold my opinion up in the air until we get more info.

Maybe online will have a non-gears mode or something? How will people get their characters to offline tournaments lol? Everyone takes turns the day before, leveling up their character on the set ups? :/

Edit: I'm just speculating and shooting shit, obviously.
