Yes, let's listen to a couple of German guys instead of Ed Boon and the NRS team who are actually making the game...

I hope you're right! but they talked to a netherrealm member at gamescom... why should they lie?

I tweeted ed boon and rigo cortez, if the game will have less than 24 characters... let's see, if they will reply...

I only ever believe in the official sources when it comes to things like these. And in this case that means Ed Boon and NRS.

Untrue according to eds twitter, maybe the Germans got confused maybe there's locked characters/hidden/secret characters etc

wow this is good news

and by the way, Ed replied to my tweet. yessssss

Please. Ed Boon blatantly lies to us all the time. Literally ALL THE TIME. I won't believe anything anyone says about this game until it is hacked lol.

I hope that lots of DLC means lots of alt. costumes.

Yeah like five tints of gray for Batman. I'd pay 400MSP. j/k

I hope you're joking.

If they are not releasing characters as DLC, what's left to ask for? After all it's a fighting game. What are they going to release, stages, pallete swaps, music, modes, special moves? I think those are out of question.

I'm just hoping they'll have classic alts. Not that I don't like the costumes they have so far.

Such as Superman "now with red pants" – 400 M$ points – ka-ching!

Well,yeah those are out of the question.But if they would go that route,then they'd have to be more reasonable about the prices of the costumes.5$ for some of the costumes?(Ala Klassik costumes),would not work here,because unlike mk's klassiks,where you also get fatalities,there is nothing new except for costumes.But i'd be fine with 5$ for new 52 costumes,but it'd have to be the whole 20+ roster instead of a select few.Not that i'm sure I'd still get it,but it'd be more fair for the consumers.

Exactly. Because I'll end up buying it, because I'm a sucker.
