Rumor Mill (TAKE WITH GRAIN OF SALT): Marvel vs Capcom 4 revealing at PSX/Capcom Cup

I'll hold my breath on the whole no more mutants thing. Its really frustrating how blatant Marvel's getting with it, especially if it effects something like this which was basically founded on the X-Men. Plus, wasn't Lupinko hinting for X-Men stuff? Oh well, we'll just see.

Same feeling, it's okay to push the MCU, I understand that part but no X-Men at all... maybe I don't know how business works lol

I really hope you are right, Lupinko's been teasing with X-Men material a few times.
 
My heart says it's happening, my brain still says this is all a very elaborate troll.

If it's real I hope a lot of the returning characters get SFV-style reworks, especially the ones from the MvC2 era as their movesets are getting stale.
 
I feel kinda bad for Ono and the gang. They must be fuming. Once again so close to a big surprise and then a leak happens. Although maybe this time they can at least keep the trailer under wraps until the actual reveal.
 
I still call bullshit on no mutants. One thing for them banning them for "new" franchises using the Marvel license, but to just say no to ANY for a popular franchise that was built on the foundation of them and originates back to fucking 1994 seems absurd.

Also betting the 2v2 rumor is bullshit as well.

Fuck the X-MEN, good riddance. Doctor Doom better be in.

I'll pour one out for Deadpool players. Even as a main, if X-23 has to die to take her dad with her, then so be it. All of my salt. If there was a way to take Vergil and Zero, even better!

I wonder if the potential lack of X-Men will actually have a tangible impact on sales, especially considering you'll still get a shit ton of other Marvel characters and you can easily fill a full MvC roster with MCU characters alone and still have lots of space for quirky comic picks.

Series tradition or not, I feel like there'd still be far too many popular characters and an actually exciting looking game underneathl for there to be any sort of significant no-X-Men-no-sale movement. Especially with casuals who know the deal and are already dropping stacks on stuff like Contest of Champions.

It's always been weird to me, especially the Megaman thing for MvC3. Like, you're not going to buy this team-based fighting game because this single character wasn't in the game? Word?

Aw yiss.
i certainly don't think the lack of xmen will have any sort of real impact on sales, at least vs the potential of new fans they could attract with an MCU focused roster. the drop sucks, but ultimately if it's a great game it will be played regardless.

but there being confirmation on no xmen raises the question if the animator was also right about 2v2 + assist....

If we get a glimpse on how Dante looks like in MVC4, maybe his new looks will be a hint for the DMC5 game.

That's what I'm hoping. That DMC5 will be the troll this year, with MvC4 featuring a completely new never before seen design for Dante but no explanation given whatsoever.
 

Homer: It's still a versus game though
Shop Keeper: Yes but it's two on two now and not three on three with assists
Homer: That's bad
Shop Keeper: Yes but Comobofiend is the battle director
Homer: That's good.
Shop Keeper: and it's being outsourced to Iron Galaxy
Homer: ...?
Shop Keeper: That's bad
 
No...
I'm happy for a new game but at the same time really sad for no X-Men :/
Why did Lupinko made all those teases then!!! lol

The vids posted showed wolverine saying he is leaving, while another showed magneto badly hurt by sentinels. So he did say logan and magnus wouldn't be returning.
But the others...idk maybe reminiscing? Since apparently no xmen.

The X-Men BETTER be in this. Don't mess this up Marvel 'cos you hold all the cards when it comes to characters. Fuck the MCU and let Capcom have some leeway. Thank you.
 
I can see two things if no X-Men

Capcom re-releases UMvC3 and says if you want to play as X-Men you can play that version.

Capcom is forced to not use X-Men as development has started some time ago and ban lift only just recently happened and will put them as future DLC. Now play as X-men for only 9.99

Okay so peep this.

What if it's like most marvel games where you select the 3 characters and their assist. But one character sits out and is the assist.

And between matches you can hot swap them out if the match up needs it.

For example.

Lord raptor/Sigma with namor assist.

And if you need to, swap it to

Namor/Sigma with the Zabel assist?

Kinda like Capcom fighting jam.

That could be neat.
