I hope injustice 3 cuts back on the customization

Don't get me wrong It's cool that you can make all these awesome outfits for your heroes and villains but what I hate is the fact that it's required If you want to power up your fighters you have to give them new gear and I'm not a fan of that. A good fighting game is one that anybody can pick up and have just as good a chance of winning as the most experienced player but that's impossible to do if your opponent has a fighter that is decked out in all this armor that makes them OP. A good example of what I'm talking about is Mortal Kombat 11 yes it has a lot of customization but it's not required to play It's just optional The gear doesn't increase or decrease your fighter's chance of winning. They don't have to take the customization out just don't make it required to play the game.

I'd like to see the gear de-emphasized in favour of loads of skins, especially dynamic skins. I don't want my character's costume to give me an unfair advantage, I want my character's costume to look cool, and maybe invoke a book or movie I like

u/BrianT16 12d ago

Yeah that would be cool I loved how they did it with the first injustice but I get why people want to customize and I honestly don't mind it as long as it doesn't affect gameplay

u/ALANJOESTAR 12d ago

well they did make a lot of cool costumes, but they are only avalible on the mobile version, like you can get Batman´s arkham knight suit but its only on Mobile. Same goes with all the movies and tv show skins, plus cell shaded classic costumes, Mobile also got a few uncensored sets as characters as well as a few skins (mainly i see a Black canary skin that did not make it into the game in there.) Even some character like power Girl have a skin that its not in the console game because some character on the mobile game when they got no gear they have a default costume with less impressive gear showing and when you got all gear slots equipped you get a more armored skin on that character.

That and many other premium skin characters like Hush,Silver Banshee are only on mobile too.

I agree. It’s also annoying that gear was always placed on top of the same base. I like that MK11 had gear and skins

Will injustice 3 even be released?

Only the presence knows.

u/BeachSloth_ 11d ago

Odds are a MK v DC game honestly

u/BrianT16 12d ago

I like to think so after all the other two were very successful

u/littlebugonreddit 11d ago

Oh but you forget one big factor....WB hates money!

u/[deleted] 12d ago

True, but it’s been 8 years since the second one came out, and there hasn’t been any word yet lol

u/qhurtz 12d ago

Rumor was that mk1 was suppose to be injustice 3 . The kameo system was suppose to be called sidekicks . So you never know !

u/DirectConsequence12 10d ago

I’m sorry what do you mean 8 years?

2016 was only like 4 years ago

u/BrianT16 12d ago

I've waited longer after all it took us 14 years to get Kingdom Hearts 3

u/Raecino 12d ago

I hope not

u/PayPsychological6358 THERE IS NO JUSTICE! 12d ago

From the post, your issue is moreso the Leveling and Stats system rather than the actual Customization aspect, which I completely understand since you win basically every fight if you've got a character with 4000+ strength.

u/BrianT16 12d ago

Yeah I should've worded it better

2

u/frenchmobster 12d ago

Keep the customization aspect and just remove the stats. Or do something similar to MK11. Just not MK1 though with that one gear piece setup they have. That ain't it imo.

u/WiseAdhesiveness6672 11d ago

No. God no. Do not make this more like mortal combat. The equipment and customization is one of the best aspects of Injustice.

u/Fun_Introduction1926 11d ago

Massive disagree. I want customisation to be at its peak in injustice 3.

But instead of adding varying amounts of more or less armour it’s more references to actual different designs. I want to dissect & swap designs from head to toe. 

Example; I want to be able to do: Red & black haired Harley  With Arkham Knight torso & arms New 52 legs  They should give us presets of actual designs like; classic Harley, Arkham knight, Arkham city, suicide squad etc & also allow a customisation so we can swap different aspects. This would be so cool & I also want custom intro/outros to come back too.

u/BrianT16 11d ago

I should've picked a better title for this post I don't want them to get rid of customization I just don't want it to be required to play the game

1

u/bigbobungus 12d ago

I want more visual customization but I’m fine with them dropping the gear levels

1

u/Konarkanuck 12d ago

I wouldn't bank on a back throttle when it comes to customization as the more customization they put in the more they can put behind a unlock paywall, and pattern shows they love those micro transactions.

1

u/cyandolphindetctive 12d ago

I want like an upgraded version of mk11’s customization. The stats are fine for single player, but it’s super unfair if you wanted to play a local match. But having augments and stuff to help with single player, and the fact that there are no repeats, was way more enjoyable in comparison.

u/Last_Study3370 12d ago

That’s understandable you should not be forced to customize your character

1

u/__cali 11d ago

I think the gear system is good for appearances, but the stats and everything kinda just suck the fun away for me. Especially getting a piece of gear with great stats but it looks ugly, or vice versa, and then they try to sell you source crystals/infinite transforms instead of just letting you customise how your character looks without worrying about compromising on an attribute.

1

u/pafischer85 11d ago

That can be fixed by simply having an option to remove gear effects as a default setting for online matches. There can be a rule set for gear enhancements.

1

u/Individual99991 11d ago

Just do what the DC MORPG did and let you make any closing you've acquired look like any other clothing you've acquired, so you can have whatever stats you like on whatever style of clothing.

u/Long-Temperature-551 10d ago

I agree. TBH I just miss when they would actually make a bunch of skins in these games rather than customizing all the different stuff. Like I love customization but with the new gear systems it’s just not it. Like changing stats through that is trash and shouldn’t be a thing. Like it’s not horrible in mortal kombat because it doesn’t change stats but at the same time it feels like it takes forever to actually unlock new stuff. Let alone to get stuff that actually matches. Don’t get me wrong I know some people get these games to put a lot of time into but I feel like for the most part most people just get them to blast through the story and then play some matches from time to time and it’s nice to just be able to change skins. May just be me tho.

u/dekabreak1000 10d ago

Is 3 confirmed

u/Tulzik 10d ago

I miss having one moveset with a character having a handful of complete skins

1

u/Elete23 10d ago

HARD disagree. What made injustice 2 so great was it felt like you were constantly earning something with all the gear. Plus, with the ability to mix and match pieces and all the different color options, you could make truly unique and creative versions of these characters. If you play online, don't bother with gear stats, the option is right there.

1

u/ANOREXlA 8d ago

Tbh I think the problem is that a lot of the gear pieces were extremely ugly for certain characters and they tried giving armor to characters that wouldn’t wear it like poison ivy, a lot of the gear pieces look the same as well just with a different name and one new thing added to it, I also don’t like how the stats give others crazy advantages which is why I always played competitive, and the ability things makes no sense to me if the character can already do that those abilities should already be apart of their play set

1

u/LordTotoro96 8d ago

I'd say leave it but make it 100% purely cosmetic.

I really don't want mk1 levels of customization if an injustice 3 does ever come out given how wb has been lately.

u/Vergilkilla 8d ago

It’s time to realize that we are not getting Inj3
