I hope this also leads to MvC3 and Ultimate going BC

I also hope this isn't exclusive again. Give the game a Fucking chance Capcom.

This Fox/Marvel beef has to stop. Magneto & Wolverine are such mainstays in the series. Would be a shame to not see them.

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.

The bolded is 110% because of marvel, not capcom.
 
Crazy to hear no Xmen.
Wolverine and Magneto will be missed. :(

It's a good thing Sony and Marvel are playing ball. No Spiderman woulda been awful.

PLEASE HAVE VENOM IN THIS TIME DAMN IT!
Or Carnage. That's cool too.
 
Which Capcom character becomes Bootleg Doom? No way in hell they just leave that playstyle out right? Pyron? Just turn all of the projectiles into fire.
 
No xmen? Fuck outta here.

Wasn't there some beef with the higher ups at Marvel treating the X-Men property like shit solely because they don't have the film rights to it? I remember people trying to argue this wasn't the case. It's really hard to see Marvel NOT actively wanting to shit on the X-Men when they pull shit like this. There's no reason to specifically go out of their way to take out fan favorites like Storm, Magneto, Wolverine, Sentinel. These were characters that MADE the series.

"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."

I dunno though, the MCU has some great characters for a fighting game and that's just in Agents of Shield. Quake, May, Ghost Rider(s), Dethlok, Mr Hyde etc. I'm quite open to the idea of no X-Men if they have full access to the MCU including the Netflix series.

The X-Men/FF ban will forever be stupid, but I think an MCU focus is way better than having a bunch of X-men characters again. The only characters I'll kinda miss is Wolverine, Deadpool, and Doom but dudes like Star Lord, Groot, Black Panther, Ant man, will easily make up for it.

If this isn't on PC to I'll cry, still gutted UMvC 3 wasn't on it.

If it isn't, I'll buy an Xbox one for it though 🙄.

I know it's not gonna happen but wouldn't it be insane if some Capcom character poped out in a MCU movie lol
 
"MVC 4 practically confirmed"

fuck yesssssss


"no xmen characters"

and I'm still pissed at Cyclops not making it in 3.

If there's no Doom... man what a deal breaker for me.
 
Considering it's extremely MCU themed, I'm really happy about this. Sad this means that comic characters I love probably won't show like Squirrel Girl, Mighty Thor, Spider-Gwen, Anarcho Spider-Man, or Ms. Marvel, but I can live with that if MvC 4 is more accessible and more relatable to the general audience.

Oh man

This is gonna go over like a lead ballon with fans if Marvel seriously thinks they can replace X-men in this game with Inhumans lol.
I'm a fan, and I like the Inhumans and hate the X-Men, so I guess I'm the exception!!

You guys mad about lack of magneto and wolverine, don't worry, the MCU tv-verse has poor-man's alternatives to most of your favorite X-Men.

Like this guy, who can seemingly move only one metal object at a time.

The MCU focus is disappointing, in that it could restrict the roster.

Excited to see new additions to the Capcom side though.

And with these restrictions, unless Sony pays through the nose for another sequel, you'll likely see this on XB1 day one to help hedge their bets, fiscally-speaking.

Not having the mutants is kinda risky, especially when trying to sell this game to a lay fan. Still looking forward to it. :)

In some ways they do but X-Men are easily some of the best characters of Marvel and not having them in is a huge negative.

I understand limiting the X-men characters so that niche like X-23 and even Deadpool won't show up.

But c'mon the hell on, the likes Magneto and Sent have to be in this.

If x-men characters are banned than maybe Magneto could be replaced by Vision, Dr. Doom is probably going to be replaced by Ultron and Wolverine's movesets could possibly go to Black Panther.
 
Also, Marvel better not force Cap to model characters after the actor likenesses. I do NOT want some shitty render of Jeremy Renner running around on screen.
