I have one character in mind that I would love nothing more than for him to appear on the roster... V from V for Vendetta.
He's a total bada** and has an amazing background and story. It would be legendary for him to be on the game and I would also like to hear your suggestions for characters and if you agree with me that V should be in the game.
 
As DLC, sure, i'd like just about anybody for DLC. So many possibilities from more cool Batman villains, to Swamp Thing, Animal Man, Blue Beetle, or even Watchmen characters.

However, as for the main roster, probably not. They probably want to stick to the main Justice League/DC Universe characters.
 
V is owned by DC though...

They can incorporate anyone into any story at anytime.

Batman USE to not be in the same world line as superman. DC just decided to start meshing world's together for story telling purposes.

You are misreading what I said. I said they'd probably want to stick to the MAIN Justice League/DC characters for the main roster this game. The ones that are easily molded into the story, because of their history together, and the ones people will recognize as fitting in. DLC is where a wider broad of DC characters could come into play, that may not fit the story they are trying to tell, but could be fun to play as.

Of course anybody can be written into anything, doesn't mean it's easy, a task they want to take on, or are even allowed to do. I'm sure DC has final say over any character they use in the end. They don't just have free reign to say "let's put Roreschach in!", as it's not their character to make that choice. If DC doesn't want V included, or don't think the story is appropriate, or whatever reason they may come up with, then it's not going to happen.

I'm not against the character, i'm just being realistic here. Judging by the roster we have so far, the story at hand, and the title of the game, obviously The Justice League is the main focus at hand, so the likes of Swamp Thing, Animal Man, V, Roreschach etc. The characters that aren't usually tied in with the main DC events, aren't likely to be featured in the main story or roster.

That's just how I see it. Not impossible, just highly improbable.

With that said, i've been wanting Swamp Thing from the start, but I accept that he'd likely be DLC if included at all.

I could see Swamp Thing in the base game but I completely agree with you about The Watchmen and V. They aren't going to put them in the base game because they don't make sense. And you're right about DC getting the final say. DC owns the characters so what happens is Netherrealm pitches character ideas to them and they can either say yes or no. Just like how Nether Realm has not really said anything about Aquaman but DC pushed them until they said yes. So Aquaman will be in the game. That's just an example of the power DC has in this project.
 
I remember someone paying attention to someone who was working with NRS, and his avatars.

couple weeks before certain character announcements he changed his avatar to something related to the game. and it was announced later. he stopped doing that I think once too many people caugh ton.

And at one point he changed his avatar to V for Vendetta.

so my hopes are high.


I don't understand the whole "to be on the main roster you MUST BE IN THE STORY" mentality.

I've never even thought that was a thing.



but I guess in the case of MK9, that's how it went down. So I guess that's an alright assumption.
 
Bane, Deathstroke, and Raven are all confirmed to be in game, so all of my mains are in. Having said that, I would totally play V if he made it in.
 
Idk who I'm going to main yet in this game there's so little gameplay out right now but if they add V as playable I will cream my pants and then go on a warpath with him. I actually tweeted boon today about that reveal and it would be huge if it was V and it was up on his pagefor a while maybe that's good news.
