Rocket raccoon was in UMVC3 to tease guardians of the galaxy. That came out years later.

I know it's good for business, but I hate the focus on MCU characters. Most of the characters from the current movies are utterly boring(outside of spider-man)
You didn't expect Capcom to scrap SFV, did you?

lol lame wasting a spot on shitty Nemesis again, and where the fuck is Wesker? In no Universe should Nemesis be in and Not Wesker.
Also why Monster Hunter character? An Arisen from Dragon's Dogma would be infinitely cooler.

This. And I used to main Arthur.
I guess Capcom will be releasing this so people can finally agree SF5 is not that bad.

Nope, but I expected this to one up MvC3. There may be flaws in this expectation in the modern gaming environment, but let a man dream.
They have a Monster Hunter character because that's probably their biggest, and one of their very few successful franchises at this point.

No Phoenix W, Captain Commando or Demitri 
At least Nova (IT BETTER NOT BE SAM) is back and Monster Hunter is interesting, but ehhhhhhh. Totally surprised that both Arthur and Firebrand returned, and that Star-Lord isn't in but Gamora and Rocket/Groot are.

Completely agreeThis roster just screams:
"GAMERS! YOU ARE GONNA BUY THE DLC, AND YOU ARE GONNA LIKE IT"
This. It's the one time where I'm okay with porting over UMvC3 assets. Please don't try to cram Sam down our throats, Marvel. Just go with Richard Rider.No Phoenix W, Captain Commando or Demitri

It's sad when you realize MvCI's base roster would fit entirely within one of the pages on UMvC3's character select screen.

Found a rare image of capcom developers switching the roster from UMVC3 to MVCI.
A hunter would give them the opportunity to sell multiple armor sets as DLC. Would be surprised if they didn't just include another guy for such a character, either way.I hope Monster Hunter means narca armour set using bow
Hawkeye is trash
Not entirely, 3 would spill over.
Lol, you can fit three more if you take out the logo and random select. Still though.

Boo at the lack of Deadpool! Disney needs to get over this Fox BS and just give everyone what they want upon release. At least they got Dante in on the Capcom side. Still buying day one but really bummed out that something couldn't be worked out for the Fox characters before launch.

No Wesker, Ammy, Iron Fist, or Vergil?

It's funny. Ask me what characters I'd want and it'd probably take me quite a while to come up with some outside of Asura and Gene, but ask me what characters I'd need to think the game is a complete cash grab from a husk of a company living on past glories and you'd get the list in the OP.
Taking around half the content of UMvC3, improving the graphics a little and adding a couple of characters to each side isn't the way to get people excited, particularly after the colossal failure that was Street Fighter V. Expecting them to buy the rest through DLC is downright insulting.
At least Arc System Works are upfront about their business practices and re-releasing the same games as super versions. They're even getting slightly better about it with upgrade routes, now. I can give them a pass because it's clear that a lot of effort goes into their games with lengthy story modes, fully-featured arcade modes and single-player content such as trials that actually include useful combos for characters and weird RPG modes like M.O.M mode in Guilty Gear.
Meanwhile Capcom is following up the barebones release of SFV by rereleasing UMvC3 with a coat of paint and half the content, dumping 3DS games on the Switch and trying to port every decent PS3 game they made to the PS4.
If you don't have the budget or talent to do your legacy justice, then just... stop already.

I fucking love that Jedah is in, but it's not worth all the losses.
Oh well.
And I'm assuming this will follow the same formula as SF5 for its day one content and dlc. What a fucking nightmare.
At this point I literally would have preferred a new version of UMVC3 with just some new characters and stages. Same preexisting roster, graphics, and music from the previous game but injected with new characters, costumes and stages. It's an old school approach, but the modern equivalent sucks when it's handled by Capcom.

It will be a guy in Rathalos armor using the Jawblade.

Why, to sell enough DLC Characters that the roster becomes slightly more expansive than UMvC3, of course!
Waiting for the darkstalkers dlc pack tbh

No Daredevil or Black Panther sucks ass too.
What a terrible Roster. Hope you were leaked BS, Ryce.

The roster I could live with had they switched Nova with T'Challa and Nemesis with Haggar.

Nah fuck Arc System Works and their archaic business practices got burned with Guilty Gear Xrd PC. With SFV I haven't had to buy anything since launch and I can still play with the current community. Fuck Arc. Never buying another game from them again.

This lineup is... bad. On both sides of the spectrum. It's just a really boring lineup. That combined with the not great sounding changes they're making and the debacle that was Street Fighter 5 and I just have zero faith in Capcom delivering something that isn't sub Street Fighter x Tekken

Seems to be like Street Fighter V. They are shipping with the characters they think they can finish before the fall.
No Wolverine I don't blame Capcom for, but they didn't even try to make up for it.
To be fair, esports.

Firebrand over Vergil I have to say this one more fucking time
