Support NeoGAF

[notworksafe]

Me looking for Polygon's sources that aren't neogaf

ryce, bakedyams, and discord shaq. all legit.

 

[CriterionDog]

No X-men??? :/

 

[Chojin]

Wonder if they will put in Wanda and Pietro in their Avengers incarnations.

 

[- J - D -]

Watch all the villain characters be D-tier, just like in the movies!

Except Loki.

 

[NinjaCoachZ]

Marvel and Capcom characters will duke it out in a new crossover fighting game coming to consoles next year. Multiple sources tell Polygon that Marvel vs. Capcom 4 is currently in development and slated for release sometime in 2017.

That means fighting game fans will more likely see characters plucked from The Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy films, and not from properties like the X-Men. Expect to see superheroes like Ant-Man and Groot make appearances, with characters of mutant origin — think Wolverine and Magneto — sitting out this entry.

Wait, you're telling me Capcom made a new game in one of their beloved IPs after years of fan demand, and managed to somehow find a way to fuck it up on a fundamental scale? I for one am shocked.

 

[Gleethor]

No Wolverine, Deadpool, Doctor Doom or Magneto is so shitty.

No X-men is 100% not their fault.

 

[Sgt. Kabukiman]

The day Berserker Barrage died.

 

[FadedRevolution]

Magneto and Doom gone. Damn Black Panther better be in.

please be 3v3

 

[Matticers]

dat x-men dlc tho

welp

 

[SolarPowered]

lmaoooooo watch them just take the X-men movesets and copy them over Black Bolt and Medusa and shit

This post truly does make me feel like Ben Affleck

 

[Geek]

How much do you guys like Guardians of the Galaxy?

 

[Wallach]

Get rekt, Kang's movie rights are owned by Fox.

whatever dude you know they are gonna try and get kang on the cheap for future cosmic bullshit

besides you know damn well fox doesn't know they have kang's movie rights or who kang even is

 

[PSqueak]

MCU VS CAPCOM.

TV superheroes probably still left out, lol.

Ironfist was on the last one, he has an upcoming series, it would be ridiculous to leave him out or not add Luke Cage too.

 

[Boke1879]

With this being at PSX expect the official platforms to be PS4 and PC.

And quit acting dramatic. Yall gonna buy this. Xmen or not.

Do you really think the MCU focus comes from them

Here, I asked just for you guys

[QisTopTier]

Nope still don't believe

 

[Spinky]

I

wanna

take

you

for

a

ride.

 

[LiK]

Max, you were wrong!

 

[meerak]

Well, that sucks. X-Men are a huge part of the MvC legacy.

It's the obvious corporate move but still bizarre. Many of the X-Men are, individually, more popular than entire franchises/groups of characters. I suppose it must be licensing in the way, right? This can't be a desired outcome by the designers, can it?

A Wolverine in hand is worth like 72 other heroes in the bush.

 

[PsychBat!]

the respect F4 deserve involves wiping your ass on the pages of their shitty comics

oh brother not this again

 

[HK-47]

lol Capcom? They wouldnt have a choice in this if its true. Get mad at Disney Marvel.

 

[Xamtheking]

No, Marvel doesnt want Xmen characters in games anymore because they hate Fox, who owns the theatrical rights to the Xmen
None of this is capcoms fault, at least on the marvel side of the roster

 

[dancrane212]

I'll just sit here thinking how great a Mortal Kombat-like campaign would be in MvC4...it's nice to dream.

 

[Kusagari]

I wonder if we'll get anyone not from MCU in the game.

Maybe Capcom can somehow get Shuma in again.

 

[Napalm_Frank]

If Dario Rosso is playable this will be the first MvC I'll buy.

 

[V-Faction]

"No mag, no Wolvie, no Doom.."

Y'all forgettin' the QUEEN.

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

inhumans zzzzzzzzzzzzzZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I swear Marvel is the dad from this:

 

[eggandI]

No X-Men

 

[rockyt]

Basically anything Xmen,mutant, or spiderman related is out. Not sure how to feel about this.

 

[Mpl90]

Polygon don't know for what platforms it will comes.

https://twitter.com/MikeMcWhertor/status/803383100218740736

Of course, PS4 is out of the window sin- sorry, can't come up with a funny joke for this.

I'm curious to see if Sony's going to get this as console exclusive thanks to their relationship with Disney and Marvel, or if Sony's role will be "limited" to promotion / marketing.

 

[Megawarrior]

If they turn Necalli into Wolverine....😡

 

[Tyrant Rave]

Can't wait to play as my favorite Inhumans like

 

[Prompto]

They would be dumb to not at least include Deadpool.

Basically anything Xmen,mutant, or spiderman related is out. Not sure how to feel about this.

Spider-Man is part of the MCU.

 

[nillapuddin]

no revival of the definitive MvC2 hyper combo team of Iron Man, War Machine and Cable then


fuck this planet.

Spoiler

no xmen is for real very very disappointing if true.

 

[Cow Goes Moo]

Here, I asked just for you guys

https://twitter.com/MikeMcWhertor/status/803384248912613376

plot twist
ryce source is polygon's source

 

[higemaru]

MCU is the Marvel Monkey Paw. But I hope the best for this. New blood will be cool for sure but I'll miss the X-Men/Fantastic Four guys too probably

 

[KingBroly]

I hope it's not a microtransaction mess like SF5

 

[Rob2K19]

NES Mini exclusive.

 

[Sgt. Kabukiman]

Wait, you're telling me Capcom made a new game in one of their beloved IPs after years of fan demand, and managed to somehow find a way to fuck it up on a fundamental scale? I for one am shocked.

Capcom has nothing to do with this, the Marvel roster is obviously decided by Disney.

 

[TheDinoman]

Basically anything Xmen,mutant, or spiderman related is out. Not sure how to feel about this.

Spiderman stuff is fine, he's in the Cinematic Universe now.

 

[GravityInsanity]

X-Men gone, MCU focus

Hype...

 

[Tregard]

Get Jessica Jones in dis shit

 

[Malvingt2]

Yeah.. no X-Men and MvC3 was not a good game so... meh

 

[Gartooth]

I am excited for the game but...

pre-emptive fuck you to Marvel for tarnishing the Vs. Series legacy for the sake of marketing movies. Wolverine, Dr. Doom, Magneto, Sentinel, etc. ARE Marvel vs. Capcom to me. Like I hope they revamp some movesets to make Spidey, Iron Man, Thor, etc. more fun to play since I barely touched those characters.

 

[jon bones]

Give me Robbie Reyes & Black Panther.

 

[vinnygambini]

Do you really think the MCU focus comes from them

Tell him the Truth™

 

[Xamtheking]

Basically anything Xmen,mutant, or spiderman related is out. Not sure how to feel about this.

2 things:
1. Spiderman is owned by Sony not Fox theatrically, and Marvel has no bones with Sony
2. Spiderman is in the MCU anyway

 

[ArchedThunder]

I was actually hoping for years that if they ever made another MVC that it'd be MCU based.
