You're probably right. A new character is set to be shown next week so it wouldn't surprise me if they overlook her entirely.

Awesome new info here too:
Dr. Fate looks awesome.
Yes.
Glad to hear about the match-making system.
I was a bit worried that some gear pieces could be too OP.
NRS have stated that the damage (with or without gear pieces) we've seen in demos and the beta will be nerfed across the board. The beta had geared up superman doing 100 damage in the corner lol. Hopefully there's a player mode (Rank does this but player?)where its automatically turned off for people like me who don't want to deal with the players who only play with it on. I think making it to where both players have to agree to turn it off is silly because most scrubs will gravitate toward the cheapest option only.
Those perks should be banned from online play across the board.Agreed.
I also hope that there's a player mode that'll let you keep the physical gear without the perks (like in Ranked, mentioned above).
That geared up Blue Beetle in the video (5:55 mark) looked sick as hell.

It can look cool in any mode. It's just that the stat boosts/cuts should be completely blocked from online play.I agree but WB and NRS only care about the bottom line. Creating you own custom looking version of said character is nothing new in fighting games. Whats irritating is when fighting game creators try to add ''RPG'' like ellements. I remember Soul Calibur 2 having the option of upgrading your weapons which broke the games balance obviously. NRS seem confident about the gear system but I feel this is something WB pushed for to get more people to buy the game.
I don't see the big problem with nonranked gear. And the idea that one person should be able to disable both player's gear is super obnoxious to me. If someone isn't playing ranked it means they want to play with the stuff they earned, the abilities they unlocked and have been practicing with for hours.
If you want to play player matches with no gear, just ask someone in a forum, or start a room for gearless matches. Works for both parties.
Personally, I feel that there shouldn't be a gearless ranked match. That would break the purpose of the Gear system. I understand that they might give the other player an advantage, but lets be real here and put it in MKX terms. It doesn't matter if I had the strongest Mileena in the entire game. It doesn't matter if I used Mileena over 10k times and mastered every move possible. If I suck at fighting against people online without the gear, I'm still gonna suck at fighting people online with the gear. Having a bit of extra health and causing a bit of extra damage isn't gonna help if someone catches you in a 40% combo 3-4 times per round. And if it will make a difference then it would be the player's fault for not earning enough og them through the offline modes, which (if MKX is anything to go by) is the only way to really get any gear pieces.
Or NRS could just have perkless gear mode in player matches which matches you with players who want to play sets without it. This seems more convenient than having to create a custom room or going through your friends list trying to get games As it stands Ranked is the only confirmed mode that eliminates stat boosts. I hate that both players have to agree to turn it on or off before the match begins. NRS should just make it a mode. It would save time IMO.
