I told you!
Yeah X-Factor Dark Phoenix is insane. Although if that other guy used his XFC on that Charging Star he probably could have killed Phoenix easily.
sigh, i expect these arguments from people that never really played marvel.
its the fact you can do it with no skill at all. im not saying this is final, im speaking about how it is, NOW. we NEVER found broke ass shit like this in 1 day in mvc2, never.
i expect the game to be over the top broken. but not scrubby over the top broken. i like the game a lot. but its entirely too easy to dish out damage, especially sentinel.
edit: well ill be honest, i guess i shoulda expected the scrubby elements…cough…sf4 engine…cough.
fun game, i got my strider/doom team, and neither are on the team of course =)
right now sent is REALLY good but that may change. There are no top strats, resets, gimmicks etc… the game is still under development. To be honest I can’t really say that broken stuff has been found. All I’ve seen is hard hitting combos from the whole cast. People complaining about Sentinel but don’t even know who his counters are or if he even has any. I never see Sentinel get snapped back either. Just because he’s on the team doesn’t mean you have to fight him. After people learn their “teams” I think minds will change about the game. Can’t be good with 1 character in this game you have to be good with 3. And if you’re first character (who is probably your best) loses early on the chances of you coming back are minimal now since you’re mediocre with the other two characters. It’s the reason I started playing ammy on point instead of mag (I’m not even good with mag yet). I want to be good with all my characters.

We all knew that the direction fighting games are going nowadays are gearing more towards easy execution in order to lower the barrier of entry, that way you get more into the mental stuff. I just hope it doesn’t get to the point where it becomes who can hit buttons the fastest wins the game.
Edit: Oh, and Zero is my homeboy. Gonna build a team completely around him.
The game isn’t even (officially) out yet. Give it some time and people will figure out counters to everything.
MvC3 is pretty damn fun… the only two “broken” aspects of the game I have seen as of right now is: Dark Phoenix with Xfactor and Sentinel WITH Xfactor…
Sentinel on his own is ok; personally I think fast characters will own his robotic ass, he isnt half as fast as MvC2 sent and does not always have hyper armor. He does hit like a truck, but, so does everyone else…
@Reese: what controller setting were we using last night…?
Sentinel with x factor is just plain stupid. The chip he does alone. Counters to him can’t change the fact that you get hit once you are dead. He can knocked back all you want but you still have to play against him to beat the person.
Dogg right, just because every character is broken doesn’t make the game not broken as fuck
As much as I loved mvc2, I’ve played that game since before an Arizona arcade seen it. It took a long time to figure out the broken parts of the game. You had stupid stuff but nothing like this. Yes we live in an internet age information travels faster than 1999 when mvc2 came out. This game is ridiculous.
my only beef is the damage. its just way too high. omg assist take insane damage. rofl, stor hailstorm super does 100% damage to my hsien-ko assist. really? that shit is fucked up haha
luey: iirc, he gets hyper armor when he attacks. so if someone is about to attack, i can do an early S to break through your attack and get the “launch of doom”
it’s quite possible that the Sentinel stuff was found so quickly because the character is so familiar and it was easy to pickup the new aspects of the game, then incorporating that into what they already know.
I think that the generations of VS games helped compound all that knowledge into what we see today. If we were to see a brand new game in a brand new franchise, I don’t think people would figure gamebreaking stuff out so quickly, at least for the higher quality titles that is lol
Luey: Control Type A with adjustments to the RB and RT.
A B 1
S C 2
akuma31: uhm launch into magic series ending with S, rocket punch otg xx HSF requires mvc2 knowledge? thats a basic canned combo. launch 1,2,3,4, rocket punch super… cmon now
hell the combo is actually simpler than that, am i really over estimating a players intelligence and thinking they are too stupid to figure out a braindead standard combo? thats even in mission mode, halfway through?
I agree the damage is stupid. They should nerf it overall. There is way to many 100% combos in this game.
But these “basic canned combos” that we see are being performed by top class players on a character that have been played since 1999. No current generation player starting with MvC3 is tuned to this shit. People are quitting the game before the game even comes out because they are scared of shit like that.
btw, I’m not even talking about combos, I’m talking in general, how good people are starting out in a new game.
The combo Scott named was done by Armando after his second day playing the game. I intend to do it tonight. I don’t think you’re giving us enough credit, man.
Actually I’m giving you guys all the credit which is what I think you guys are misinterpeting.
lol @ navi, always finding a way to argue.
too much is being found out too soon, dan has already found multiple unblockables, and they arent even with sent, if he adds sent to the mix its retarded. and as scott called, that hsien ko super armor assist is silly, you can be punished for landing a combo…thats right, you land a combo, and get punished MID combo. The game is super fun, and im enjoying the hell out of it…but if this is just where it begins, its going to be scary to see where it ends. i predict some balance adjustments within the next month if not sooner.
Armando is GDLK!! But Zero man, just wait ni66ahs!!
exactly. armando is new to this marvel shit, and he can 100% combo at the beginning of day 2? hell tootall just started yesterday and hes damn near doing 100% with wolvie with 1 meter, no xfactor? cmon.
unblockables are fucking good in this game. so now i got a strider/doom-like team, and now wesker for taskmaster unblockables. ggpo if you are near the corner. free damage
Reading all of this Mahvel stuff is going to give me an anxiety attack…I want the game SOOOOO bad.
I have heard further rumblings about taking the damage down to low to make it bearable… any opinions on that?
