Trailer Confirms Wonder Woman & Blue Beetle Jaime Reyes for Injustice 2

Considering how blatantly unpolished the graphics are so far (y'all really think they're keeping that block of hair too?) I think her face looks like a huge improvement for NRS. The people whining now are the same ones who cried foul about Cassie's look at the first reveal and forgot how far her character model came since then too. Nothing better to do but bitch about PS2 graphics on a pre-alpha build lol.

Why ever improve aesthetics if they've never affected gameplay? Why do these developers spend countless hours making their games look nice when it doesn't mean anything right?

Wrong. Sure I'm going to play Injustice 2 no matter how it looks because I'm a fighting game player, but at the same time I'm a fan of the series and I'm obviously going to want the game to look nice. It's like if there were two restaurants with the same food quality and one looked like Hilary Clinton's snatch, don't tell me you wouldn't go to the nicer looking one. Because aesthetics matter.

If it changes then it changes and good for NRS. But until then her face looks hilarious and it will be laughed at excessively.

I'll be honest, WW face looks not great but is not butt ugly as in IGAU, plus I like that mature look on her, same way I like that girly teen look on Supergirl, in that sense I think NRS nailed the faces, but the animations (when they talk, etc) are weird as fellow members pointed out. Now the hair is another issue but I'm sure it will be fixed before release.

And let people have fun for Christ's sake.

The face actually isn't bothering me all that much. Not my ideal idea of pretty, but nobody ever said she should be (my ideal). As much of a stunner as Gal Gadot is, she doesn't strike me as having an Amazonian quality about her. This version feels like what a strong, powerful woman might look like. Not going to complain if there are tweaks to bring her more in line with the current illustrations though.

Far better than super girl, but to be fair, I'm far more personally invested in making sure SG looks good.

Don't know squat about BB, but I'm feeling curious about now.

It is better this way
Do you guys remember how terrible Cassie Cage looked back in E3 2014 gameplay. Well no shit, WW, Supergirl, Blue Beetle(his face is worse than WW's). This is suuuuuper early. MKX looked ugly as fuck at this time table, there is no reason to criticize because of how early this is. Other than Kitana, the females look ok in MKX, and WW already looks better than she did in in Injustice 1.

This makes no sense, it's 2016. We can have good gameplay and good designs.

It's actually Freddy Marvel
Honestly her face looks fine, 200% better than it did in the last game, her hair looks terrible just like everyone elses and there just some weird facial mokap bugs still in the game same thing happened with superman and Batman at E3 but nobody made a fuss about it, its like you guys want WW to be fucked up so you can laugh about it lol

anyway Jaime is an amazing chioce and looks great, my only complaint is his trait, WoWo's trait being changed is a big deal too so Joker's should be as well

Play Monster Hunter!
I loooove Wonder Womans revamped moveset! I want to know why she doesn't fly anymore? Does she have to use her trait for that? Only kryptonians fly now?

Beetle looks rad, and like he has the exact play style I want!
She only flew in Injustice in lasso stance, in sword stance she stood on the ground.

In this game she is no longer a stance character, and it seems that sword stance is the "base" and was given some new normals and lasso stances specials, like the braclet parry and lasso grabs.

Her trait does let her air dash though, so she might fly during it.

I get that, but it seems so weird to have Superman and Supergirl hovering around but the red lantern and WW don't.

Also seriously NRS, please make it so you can actually hit their feet!

Get your guns on. Sheriff is back.
So lemme get this straight, if you can find even one frame of a face in bad lighting between facial expressions to make them look bad then the face is automatically terrible? Thats like snapping random shots of people mid reaction and being surprised you get a dumb photo.

*shakes head*

Look at the OP pics of her. Profile and closeup are fantastic.

They're all bad tbh.
We just cherry picked the WORST ones.

  • “It probably won’t be Scorpion, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see another Mortal Kombat character as a guest in Injustice 2” says Boon.
I would be. I thought the staff would've learned their lesson about inserting MK characters where they don't belong and then nerfing them a month later to bottom tier.
 
It's a shame scorpion was the most downloaded dlc, personally I would rather NRS bring more DC chars to life but what can be done about it, the user base has spoken with their actions.
