What the hell is this? It sounds like Stephen Hawking's voice synthesizer after 40 years of rigorous smoking.
What do you think of the new announcer?

Terrible.. While I'm nitpicking I'm not a fan of the HUD either.. Everything else is pretty promising though.

 

[Gesture Required Ahead]

Maybe altered properties on hit?

IDK. It'd be interesting seeing what NRS would do with CHs. But I think it's just to inform players more of what's happening in a match. I also saw a cross-up notification after all

I think the announcer is Brother Eye speaking. If I'm not wrong (I really don't know, to be honest), Brother Eye is a giant database and surveillance A.I. that is used by Batman(?) in some comics. The main menu for Injustice 2 is Batman in what appears to be The Watchtower on a computer, and at the beginning of the match it says "Getting Live Feed" (or something along those lines) and flashes the Brother Eye symbol: http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/marvel_dc/images/2/23/OMAC_Project_Vol_1_1_Textless_OMAC_Variant.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20131119225500

This would explain why the announcer sounds like a synthesized scientist or something. But again, I don't really know much about Brother Eye at all, so I could be completely wrong.

it sounds like multiple voices, and the health bars look like absolute shit, other than that the hud is fine

You people hating on the lifebars and stuff are crazy. They're georgous - especially compared to MKX's. When there was first gameplay of MKX everybody hated how the UI looked and I was saying in the Twitch chats "it's just a demo, they'll have the real health bars when the game is released". I was wrong - that WAS the real deal. Hated it. Still do. It's just white and plain; how boring.

But Injustice 2 has colours. A glow around some parts. It's so visually pleasing that I honestly just want you all to just look at it for a long period of time and adjust. You will see the light...

IDK it sounds like Roger Craig Smith's voice and I'm fine with that.

I heard the announcer say "Superman wins" and it sounded like he had a peg on his nose or some shit. Sounds really odd.

I absolutely love the health bars. The HUD shows a ton of information...actual % on every attack landed right there on the health bar, vibrant yellow to show how much life is lost on each hit, crossup notification, counter hit notification, super meter is easier to read than I1, super meter notifies you of how many bars you have, more obvious clash indicator, etc. The HUD in general is probably the best I've ever seen for a fighting game.

Amd it's lowered. Perfect for tourneys

 

[Eldriken]

Imagine what the HUD will look like after they're done finalizing everything. #Kreygasm

One thing I hope they add to the HUD is a health percentage remaining indicator, as well as show the guard damage percentage when blocking stuff.

 

[MKF30]

LMAO...I knid of thought it sounded like Fujitoid from TMNT haha. A little.

 

[K7L33THA]

Anything is better than the Injustice 1 announcer. God she was annoying. "Begin"

Crossup notification?
Let's hope we won't be seeing many of those, but crossups are pretty much an inevitablility in back to block games so this will massively help in training to defend against them.

You're right on the money.

Dude, holy shit. That would probably be amazing. Block damage percentages would be very interesting to see. Especially if you can see the exact amount of health you have left. It could be the deciding factor in "I have enough health to take any amount of chip damage they can throw at me if I block. Should I do it and hope for the best?" or *gets knocked down* "I don't have enough health to survive chip damage from this character, so should I just go all out with my wake up and hope they don't use an armor breaking setup/block my invincible wakeup that is highly punishable on block instead that I could have survived had I blocked instead?"

Just my take on it.
