YAY VIDEOS 8D




And first of all...The forced comment:
PHOENIX WRIGHT IN MARVEL VS CAPCOM 3 WHY WHAT HOW WHAT THE HELL IS A FREAKING LAWYER THAT SOLVES CASES USING HIS FINGER AND VOICE IS DOING IN A FREAKING FIGHTING GAME FULL OF CHARACTERS THAT GO FROM CONTROLLING ELEMENTS OF NATURE TO FREAKING DEVOURING ENTIRE GALAXIES WHAT IS HE GONNA DO OBJECTION GALACTUS TO DEATH OR WHAT THE FFFFFFFUUUUCK!?!?!?!?!?!

...
Alright, done with that o3o This looks mildly interesting. I'm sad to see that none of the classic characters will be back, such like Ken, Guile, Cyclops, Gambit, etc., and half of the characters are unknown to me and so you could say i couldn't care less about them. I'm looking forward to how they'll behave though...especially with Vergil, Frank, and of course, Phoenix Wright. Totally looking forward to how the last 2 will be able to survive against Hadoukens and Berserker Barrages, and what kind of abilities will allow them to defeat supernatural beings from other worlds/dimensions.

I'm wondering though...Will this "Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3" be a DLC to the original game, or a whole new game altogether that will be incompatible with the original MvC3? At first, i thought it was just going to be another characters DLC...but looking further into it, it has much more than that. There's new scenarios, new music, obviously new artwork and stuff, the Health and Hyper bars have changed (i don't like them D; ), same with the X-Factor thing, and apparently new changes have been made to the Online mode, supposedly for balancing stuff (no more Sentinel laser spamming for me, i guess TT3TT). And the way people talk about it it's like they're talking about a whole new game, a whole new disc they'll have to buy, rather than just something they'll just download D: So i'm not sure of what it's going to be exactly...but if it's a whole new game that i need to physically buy and i can't just download it and enjoy with my current disc, then i don't think i'll be buying it.

I'm thinking this is going to be like the Street Fighter 4 to Super Street Fighter 4 thing, but then again they can release it as dlc. Well SSF4AE was DLC for SSF4, but also release as with a disk. Anyway with so many things changing I don't see this being dlc but we shall have to wait and see. It is one thing to add characters, but another thing to change how the health bars, and hyper meter looks. Now I'm sure we're all thinking yes Ghost Rider, Strider, and Vergil are in the game now, but who the heck are the other guys.

Well at least She Hulk can debate with Phoenix Wright now. lol
I can't wait to see Ghost Rider vs Dante. Ghost Rider was hinted in Dante's ending.
Like you said Sorrow I don't like the health bar. It is a little hard to see how much health your teammates have.

Yeah, the way it all looks, it's going to be a new game indeed, not a DLC; just like SSF4 was to SF4, like you said. And since it's going to be a new game, they're going to make ALOT more changes to it than we've already seen, quite related to the whole "balancing" deal. Maybe some characters will lose certain features, such like the "armor" thing with Sentinel's c.M attack or Hulk's H attack. Perhaps some characters will be unable to link certain attacks, or the opposite...be able to link attacks in ways that were impossible to do before. Maybe changes involving attack and dash cancelling too. I expect to see stuff like that, to make certain "cheap" characters not so strong anymore (Sentinel TT3TT), and make others more usable and better for competitive matches.

True...But well, we saw several other characters in many characters' endings, such like Blade and Nightcrawler, and we aren't seeing them in this new characters list. In fact i thought we weren't going to see Ghost Rider in the game anymore, thinking that those characters were shown in the endings just to give them an appearence as they weren't going to be playable...but it seems i was wrong D:
zaseo wrote:Like you said Sorrow I don't like the health bar. It is a little hard to see how much health your teammates have.
Yeah, and i think that the design has taken a step backwards. I don't know why exactly...But if someone showed me a screenshot with these new bars, and then with the old ones, i would think that the "old" ones belong to a final or updated version and the "new" to some Beta or unfinished version. The old bars looked smoother and you were perfectly able to see how much health all your characters had in a quick glance, while the new health bar can be misleading and it's indeed more complicated to see the remaining health of your teammates; the only good thing this new bar design does is to make it easier to identify who is your first and second assist (and make it more fitting with the characters' intro to the battle)...but if you're a good enough player unlike me, you should be able to know who are your assists at any time without having to look at any bar.
Another thing i don't like is the X-Factor. Before, the X-Factor indicator used to be that little thing at the end of your bar that reminded you you still had some hope if you were on your last character and about to lose, or to be used to overkill someone by cancelling your own Hyper combo and follow with another Hyper or a full combo in general. Now, it's that one HUGE thing in the middle of the screen that's all "LOL HI" at the beginning, and all "HEY I'M HERE USE MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEH!!!1!1!" when you only have one character left...almost forcing you to use it so it stops bothering you x-x And i don't like how the X-Factor mode looks either...IMO, a red-orange-ish aura was much more awesome and intimidating than something which looks like if your character had fallen into a pool of sticky red powder D:
Also, i notice X-Factor can now be activated in mid-air. I don't think "balance" was the word they were looking for here...

Well Capcom has surely ticked off many fans with the you UMVC3. Many people wanted one of the Megamans series characters in the game. MVC3 is short on modes, and stages. I had a feeling they were going to pull out this dick move with characters, or stages sooner or later. MVC3 was never complete to begin with. Also people are worried they may do this to Street Fighter vs Tekken. Lets hope we don't see Super/Ultimate Street Fighter vs Tekken.

I'm waiting for the Super Ultimate Mavel vs Capcom 3 Hyper Turbo Arcade Edition!! I'm not surprised they released this and most likely it'll be on disc. All my friends who have MvC3 are pissed because it seems like Capcom is just money grubbing their fans. Megaman will be DLC for Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3. If not, then he'll be one of the extra characters when they released Super Ultimate MvC3 again next year with more stages and characters.

I'm actually not annoyed by this, if anything i'm just disappointed/confused by the new looks and PHOENIX F­UCKING WRIGHT while there are no absolute sights of Cyclops or Gambit.
I am concerned for Street Fighter x Tekken though, as it's so very likely they'll do the same (100% chance if this goes well...and it will because regardless of how much fans complain about it they will buy it to keep playing). As i watched the new SFxT videos i read a comment that made me laugh but it was full of truth, saying they were just waiting for "­Ultimate Street Fighter X Tekken Ultra Super HD Remix 5th Strike". And i do want to enjoy SFxT to the fullest, so yeah, maybe i'll wait for such version too >3> lol

Anyways, back at UMvC3...i'm not even sure if they'll release DLC for it. It sounds like an exaggeration (YO DAWG EXTRA CONTENT FOR YOUR EXTRA CONTENT LOL), but i wouldn't be surprised either and it has happened with Street Fighter before. I don't think they'll add Megaman though. Aren't fans happy enough with Zero and Tron? D:

I hope that Megaman, or Megaman X can be dlc. Come on Capcom not only did you cancel two Megaman games, but you also rejected him to be a character for MVC3. Megaman is petty much the face of Capcom. Also I know they don't want to keep using the same characters, but when you think about it characters like Cyclops or Gambit are core or very popular characters. Well I hope Capcom won't get into the habit of rereleasing games versions every year like sports games.

At first i didn't fully understand your demand of having Megaman in the game, as we already have Zero and Tron from that "franchise", and even though some games were cancelled it doesn't mean they completely disregarded the entire franchise. But it's true...Megaman is one of the most iconic characters of Capcom in general, he has been in all other Vs games, and even though we have 2 other characters already it's not the same, and that didn't stop Resident Evil and DMC from getting an extra character anyways...so yeah, your demand of Megaman is just as valid as mine of Ken or Cyclops. In fact, almost all of the fans have wanted Ken, Cyclops, Megaman, Gambit, Guile and Zangief (Haggar doesn't count, he doesn't piledrive) ever since MvC3 was announced. The game feels somewhat empty without them, even if they don't want to keep using the same characters...and NO ONE wanted a freaking racoon instead >->;

And lol, Marvel vs Capcom 2012 Deluxe Edition...And then Marvel vs Capcom 2013 Even More Deluxe Edition. Again, i won't be surprised...but that would just be entirely ridiculous. And if they release Gambit on that 2013 edition i won't care anymore as my interest on the game would've vanished long ago D:


...
Oh wait, Haggar CAN piledrive.
But meh, Zangief > Haggar anyways.

Right now MVC2>MVC3.

Well since I never got MvC3 the first time around, I'm not really upset about this.

And yes. Phoenix Wright in this game = WTF + WIN.

Vergil looks good. Seth Killian from Capcom brought the full build to the tournament in NorCal for Ultimate NorCal vs Capcom 2.There are some really interesting skins for the characters especially Zero with the MegaMan X skin at the 53:00 mark lol. The first part of the video is 2 hours long and its in 3 parts. So it'll take a really long time to buffer. Nothing really happens for the first minute or so because of button checks. There is commentary from him. I haven't seen the whole thing.
