Oh snap. There might ACTUALLY BE voice work in the story now?! That Rocket Raccoon / X interaction might top the entire MvC3 "story" mode.

Maybe we'll get something more substantial besides Intro Fight quips that bounce off of one another like a tennis ball on sand.

Not shocked they didn't reveal Spider-Man and Dante yet. New Spider-Man movie coming so they'll reveal that soon and DMC5 is in development.

Woah I just realized that if DMC5 is truly in development, than the DMC5 design will likely be in this game 0;0

Got to watch the trailer (sans audio) and lookup the pics.

The artstyle is uninspired but the graphics look ok. I was expecting much worse based on some impressions.

Not really excited yet (then again Marvel was never my forte). Need to wait on seeing what new characters & mechanics they have planned.
 
Funny thing is that that is exactly what SNK did with KOFXIV.

50 characters (all created from scratch) day 1, no DLC.

Then fans bug them for DLC characters and they release 4 of them half a year later.

I'd love it if they stuck to this model for their future games.

Tbh they kinda had to....

That's what me and Dahbomb have been going with. No reason to hold back Dante if it is DMC3 Dante in this game and Itsuno said a few months back that whatever he is working on will be announced this year.
 
At least add an Amadeus Cho skin. Man I love TA-Hulk so far.



It's a shame he lost all of his personality in those films :(

Did you watch only the first movie? Cuz the movie in the gif was pure RE4 Leon snark

They didn't.

30-40 would have been an acceptable roster on release and they could have milked the fans for the rest.
No I'm saying they had to test the waters and see if it would even be worth doing for them....
 
*what it looks like in your head*

*what it really looked like*

Honestly though, TvC and MvC3 share a lot of design sensibilities, surely was because both were made by Eighting. And MvCI is not.

At the time it came out, it looked pretty nice in my opinion. MvC3 looked okay but I just wasn't feeling the comic book look they went for back then. If they toned down the whole ink look it may have looked much nicer.

As in "Heathcliff"
Marvel 3 already has that with stuff like She Hulk, Amaterasu and Dante.

But for some characters it's not an easy fix.

That's a quite good point. It's going to be very interesting to see what they could do with their control scheme to attract the casual players.

I think that would be more difficult to do during combos where you might have to crouch/stand for the particular normal you want to come out (if this is a 3 button scheme).

That's also a good point too. I can't wait for those impressions if it's coming this week.

I really, really, really hope people think twice before throwing Capcom $200 over this.

Remember... Capcom's last two fighting games were SFV and SFxT.

FTFY. Good advise regardless.
I was going to shell out for the Deluxe edition. But cooler heads prevailed. I'm not going to fall into another SFV situation without doing my research.

Looking pretty rough... Hopefully Capcom has learned enough to not release it brutally incomplete and broken. However, given how close the release date is, that seems unlikely.

hot hot hanuman-on-man action
Black Panther is 100% in the default roster

he's got a big budget MCU movie coming out like 5 months after release

Looking at this again, I actually really like the character models. Chun-Li in particular looks really good. I just kinda expected something more stylized. Hope the backgrounds look better in the final game. Currently they look sparse as heck.

To be fair i'd have never given that ugly ass KoF the time of day if it wasnt justified with all those characters

So there are pictures of part of the HUD on twitter. What is the source?

EDIT: Oh god the HUD looks terrible. What are you doing Capcom

They also heard about that and are actively doing graphics updates
Not like they went out of their way to make it look like so
You can't be getting 13 godlike sprites but it's something

This was never an exclusive.

Only UMvC3's new port was timed exclusive for a few months.

Nah everybody gets to share the love this go-round



Ya it was fuck all, I'd rather have a real story mode

awesome, get as many people in this game pls.

even tho i dont dig the art style im gonna play this shit till i die, i was actually pretty decent at marvel 3 then it went downhill with tacs and shit. MAHVEL GAF IM BACK BAYBEE

Yeah so it would make sense to hold back on that for them, other companies have done this already and sorta know what to expect

No, they released the entire planned roster. The whole point was to go all in for launch, they didn't hold anything back.

The roster leaks (which happened before the game was even announced) showed that 50 was the planned roster from day 1 and there was nothing beyond that.

The DLC came later due to fan requests.
