My Opinion Injustice 2 is a dissapointment

[Sage-Of-Light]

Injustice 2 is a dissapointment, the game is based around customization but the only place you can use the customized character is in player matches or offline but not in ranked.

A game that is mainly based around customization gear which really is a bunch of duplicates with different names and shaders that are specific to a character there is not much freedom in regards of customizing.

They patch characters based on how they want them for example they patched Aquamans meter burn tentacle strike because apparently he was designed to be a defensive type but on injustice 1 he had great zoning, defense, combos and mix ups was he also designed wrong on that one too?

It's the same game don't deny it they have copied and paste the characters moves and enhanced a few things.

The grinding is long I banged out the game and was unimpressed with the results. It is a comic based game everyone should be fair played not based on match ups.

Every character should have a zoning, combo, defense and mix up potential its called being fair. I really liked the story but after Sub-Zero DLC came out I used him and realised he has more dissadvantages then advantages i thought i will come back to it after, to me this game is incomplete.

I am currently playing Tekken and noticed that they truly care about the gamers and injustice is built more towards a competitive scene. People are too sensitive towards opinions. I do not care i just did not get what i expected as a gamer. I will jump back on when the game has completed (hopefully).

P.S I do hope NEO becomes a DLC for injustice 2.

Space it out, make it easier to read.

My opinion this game is godlike.

That's a wall of text, but I don't like this game much either. It's not great to play or watch.

This is a weird ass thread.

So you're saying that every character should have everything? They should all be deadshot level zoners with canary level mix, atrocitus with trait pressure, prepatch Bladam damage and Catwoman footsies?

Lol being fair has nothing to do with every character being identical... That's.. I mean you're entitled to your opinion, but it's a weird ass opinion. The game has some good balance going for it, not perfect by any means, but it's not terrible at all... Being 'fair' means every character has a chance to compete and win and right now, that's more true than not.

And why on Earth would the stats snd abilities be allowed in ranked? There is a huge mode, according to nrs the most popular mode by far, where they are allowed, so I don't see the issue. Now, I do wish gear pieces were more diverse, I'll give you that. Being able DRASTICALLY alter the appearance of a character would be great, but what we have is still.more than any other fighting game I've ever seen outside Tekken and aside from a couple pieces of gear, Tekken's stuff is highly fucking stupid. You can carry a sardine for shits sake. Injs is a great step towards kind of "owning" your character and something I hope other games expand on.

It's weird you say nrs is catering to competitive gamers and use Tekken as an example of caring about players, whatever that means.. when NRS has addressed Community issues and complaints in patches with more Community requested features to come. Ranked is being changed, the first patch that changes the input stuff around, gear management changes .. it all reads like a laundry list of requested changes.. and Tekken doesn't cater to a casual audience like you seem to be implying. I love the game, it's amazing, but Tekken is about as anti-casual as you can get.. so no clue where you're going with that.

Inj isn't perfect and your opinion is your own, but I'm just not sure what your argument was for the game not being good actually was.. other than, Aquaman was OP in Inj1 so he should have stayed op in inj2 and every character should be god tier at every aspect of the game because that's.. fair?

I think i hit a nerve lol my point is that I was expecting to have a great experience with a game that I was excited for with the characters I like using because ofcourse i am a fan of it.

It is fair if all characters had grapples, zoning mechanics, combos, mix up, parries and whatever else i missed out. And allow THE PLAYER TO CHOOSE THE WAY HE/SHE WOULD LIKE TO USE THEIR FAVORITE CHARACTERS FREEDOM IS THE ISSUE AND TEKKEN HAS ALOT OF FREEDOM.

The game is incomplete to me its a demo and its A GAME based around gear and customisation so i expect to use my hard work of getting the many duplicate gears and play ranked so i can rank up, ranking up on player match is not the same.

The game was a waste of time and in my experience playing tekken has been the best you can customize characters and have great fair matches depending the skill of the player.

 

[dribirut]

Never go full

 

[Sage-Of-Light]

Never go full

In your opinion

 

[Baconlord]

So your biggest problem with the game is characters are to diverse and gear not being in ranked?

I just don't think you really understand how fighting games functions. That's okay though, neither does the developer, that's why we have a retarded gear system as the standard mode of online play to drive away everyone who might take it more seriously than your average joe, but is not a tournament player either.

 

[LEGI0N47]

I do not care i just did not get what i expected as a gamer.

And here is the root cause.

Could have been a status update IMO as there is a counter argument to every other point you made. It's just not what YOU expected or wanted. That happens.

 

[Mr_BAMFito]

bruh
doesn't get any more casual than injustice.
the game is godlike.
you seem to not like what makes the game truly unique.
their character designs are freaking godlike, no other game comes close.

 

[Sage-Of-Light]

So your biggest problem with the game is characters are to diverse and gear not being in ranked?

My problem is that a character will always be better than the other depending on who it is match ups match ups match ups

 

[I Game To Bring The Pain]

It's not a disappointment to me, but you made some good points. I think the AM nerf was a bit much, but he's still not complete trash as Dragon showed us this weekend.

Gear system is ok, it's dope to customize how your character looks, but I hate any form of RNG, so I don't really care for it anymore.

The worst aspect of this game besides the excessive toxicity of the community is the relation between projectiles and meters. This is me throwing spaghetti on the wall but it would be interesting to see blocked projectiles building meter after they travel a certain distance or something. Idk of a real solution, but if they can make that area more balanced, I think there would be a lot less salt surrounding this game.

Which is why i play games like smash bros, tekken, mk x and street fighter. Hopefully injustice 2 gets the update it deserves lol

But your talking about counter arguments but i am not arguing lol it's all opinions who am i to say your wrong or any one is wrong it's perception and in my perspective i think its a dissapointment from from playing the first injustice coming into this new one with there fake customization.

 

[bishbash]

The game is fine, some of the characters however...

Speaking solely about the females, only Cheetah is even half as unique a character as Hawkgirl, Zatanna and killer frost were in the first game. I expected this game to expand further on those unorthodox kind of builds but sadly it didn't happen.

I'm not even going to start on what they did to Wonder Woman this time around

Zzz

Okay, i usually stay out of these threads, but what i'm just seeing here is
A casual player trying to talk about balance on a game designed to be played competitively, he doesn't know jack shit about balance yet, he talks about "zoning mechanics", mixup, parries and whatever else he missed to make him sound like he understand this concept, saddening the more he mention competitive stuff and talks about balance the more he buries himself and chokes into his own words because he doesn't have any credibility at all.

I would honestly be okay if this dude said he plays casually and joined the forum to learn how to play the game, so characters specialist and ppl that research their characters daily would definitely give him a helping hand, but the fact that he just came out of a black hole with knowledge that even our lord Paulo is uncapable to see its baffling, this thread is terrible and someone needs to chill this dude out and actually teach him how to play.

 

[Quantus]

Man, I agree with your title, but the post is garbage. Here's a sample of Injustice 2's actual problems:

Every Combo ends in a full screen knockback
Every Projectile sends you full screen
Knockdowns aren't advantageous unless you do send them full screen.
Stages are massive, and most characters have full screen moves.
Some interactables are unblockable (again...)
If any game needed a block button, it's this one, as every character wants to walk backwards anyway.
Instead of needing meter to make wake-ups invincible, it makes them safe ("Okizami whatever" costs a bar)

Feel free to add to the list.
