Wouldn't that be overkill for a launch roster?I'm hoping for 60 or 70.

I would expect the second character, if Sigma is KO'd first, to run in during the explosion. And if he's the second character, just stop the timer on the KO hit.That'll be one hell of a way to timer scam.
J is referring to the roster by the time all is said and done.
I know it.
36-40 would be perfect for the initial roster.
Different teams.
SFV not succeeding in one area doesn't necessarily mean the MVC team wouldn't.
Also, like Neo said, they have the advantage of reusing animations whereas the SFV team was using entirely new models.
Every new numbered SF game starts small with their rosters since they each remake their assets from scratch (for reference, SFIV had 16 characters in its Japanese arcade launch). As I've said before, MvCI is reusing UMvC3 assets, which should help in increasing the base roster count.Sounds implausible. When they barely could put out for SFV

If SFV reused SFIV animations, maybe we would have had a larger base roster for SFV. But to be fair, the SFV animations for the IV veterans absolutely shit on their SFIV counterparts.
I'm hoping for somewhere between 36 and 40 at launch.

Knowing that the game will receive support post launch, I'm okay with 32-36 characters.
If there was a chance the game wouldn't get any updates, then that number would be looking a bit shaky. I think we all would love a 40+ base roster. Outside of everything else, I'm most looking forward to the graphical touch-up the game will receive. I also think there's a chance some of the animations (ie Iron Avenger, Shin Shoryuken) might be changed up a bit.
Oh, post-launch thread will suffer my wrath and saltiness.I look forward to your posts in post-launch threads complaining about the "small" roster size and lack of Jedah.
You're probably gonna have to wait until E3.Feels like it's been ages since the reveal...random chara trailer drop Capcom, pretty please lol
You're probably gonna have to wait until E3.
Probably Gwenpool, seeing as Spider-Gwen doesn't really have any differentiating factors from Peter in terms of abilities.Better chance to make it: Spider Gwen or Gwenpool?
Here's the tweet, & the image is below.Matthew Edwards just posted a pick of him playing an unreleased game and he had an arcade stick in front of him hmmmmmmmmm
Pic is just the start up menu for the PS4
Note that he said unreleased games.Dat Umbrella logo on his hat. /tinhaton so Resident Evil character is going to be next?
Edited: It's probably a newcomer from SFV Season 2 as well so either one.
Considering that they're reusing UMvC3 assets for the veterans, I'd be very surprised if the base roster was under 30. SFV redid every single character from scratch, MvCI isn't.I wouldn't be surprised if the game has less than 30 characters at launch.
Note that he said unreleased games.
If he does, he need to do it like a Megaman X boss. Lots of little explosions, then screen fades to white and Sigma turns black then fades to white, followed by the screen clearing.

At least we're closer to E3 than we were some months ago.
Not that that'll make you feel better, but I tried.
I at least want Wolverine and Doom to be in.Silver Surfer is a really interesting one I hadn't thought about since MVC3.
X-Men being in would calm so many people.
I'd like to see on the Capcom side: Saki Omokane, Tessa, Vanessa Z Schneider, Luka, Kyoko
Samanosuke would be a great addition IMO, since Capcom is supposed to be reviving some IPs.Samanoske from onimusha, Asura, Thanos and Hel all playable day 1 and I'd be a happy camper. Need more infos.
Don't the Onimusha characters have some legal issues since they're based on real character (correct me if I'm wrong). And do you mean Hela when you say Hel?Samanoske from onimusha, Asura, Thanos and Hel all playable day 1 and I'd be a happy camper. Need more infos.
6 females out of a roster of 40 just doesn't sit right (maybe 7 if hunter were to be female but that's if). I think for one Sigma and Ultron will be only boss form like galactus. So cutting them out from playable with 2 more females puts us at 8. Considering MVC3 had a roster of 38 (with DLC) and had 11 females (12 if you count Amaterasu). I would say at minimum they have 10 out of 40.Now that we know that 32 isn't exactly the limit, here are my guesses for the remaining roster (if that leak is accurate).
MARVEL
CAPCOM
- Thor
- Hulk
- Star-Lord
- Black Widow
- Hawkeye
- Thanos
- Ultron
This would put the base roster at 40.
- Phoenix Wright
- Chun-Li
- Wesker
- Asura
- Rashid
- Haggar
- Sigma

But if Capcom can't convince Marvel to let some Fox characters in on Day 1, that right there already cuts the Marvel side off from a good chunk of their potential female reps (plus Scarlet Witch would be harder to get into the game in this scenario). Sure, you could swap out Sigma for Amaterasu, but there aren't a lot of other Marvel female options outside of Scarlet Witch who would lend themselves to a unique playstyle. I suppose they could get creative with Gamora, but I'm not sure what they could do with Wasp since she has to shrink to use her powers.
