I updated the Battle and Brew biweeklies thread with the next date, hope you guys can make it. I will also be posting the separate MvC3 tournament soon.

drew511 · February 17, 2011, 11:19am

Is there seriously not a record option in training mode? or am i just missing it?

Dru_90X · February 17, 2011, 11:41am

dragonballjoseph · February 17, 2011, 12:05pm

Reox8888 · February 17, 2011, 12:42pm

Just found it, you have to map a button to it.

Daemon_Gildas · February 17, 2011, 7:43pm

Just curious, where is this “Final Round” that everyone’s talking about? And when does it go down? Like I mentioned earlier, new to the fighting community, but really interested in getting involved; just not really sure where to start at the moment.

karapalm · February 17, 2011, 8:11pm

dumba hooked you up with the final round info but…
I think a good place to start would be coming to the atlanta revival this month. It can get you acquainted with a lot of different players, maybe even some people near your area. Final round will be a lot more fun with familiar faces to hang out with. The info for february’s atlanta revival is here: http://shoryuken.com/f7/atlanta-revival-calm-before-storm-february-26th-2011-atlanta-ga-262670/

What? Explain this please.

Oh, and by the way, who are the rest of the Sentinel heads using?

I am sporting Dante, Sentinel, Storm, but I am thinking about just going straight MSS, so powerful in this game still, but it just depends on if I feel Mags is a better point character than Dante at the start of the match. I can’t get over how Dante has every option in the game at the very start, and with no meter.

Ike’s refusing to jump on board the Sentinel train. He’s going Doom, Zero, Spencer/Storm/Dante. Zero and Doom are pretty sick in this game. Doom can get like 70% 1 meter and 50% without, but the combo has some difficulty to it, he can instant airdash overhead or low fairly quickly(Seems a lot quicker than Mags), and he can instant airdash overhead crossup just as quick. I actually respect Doom players in this game, at least, for now. Zero is some auto mixup. I’ll let Ike speak more on it whenever he feels up to it.

Oh, and for the record, anyone that uses Sentinel should be ashamed of themselves, myself included, but man, I just can’t stop. =|

Edit:

Derek, why didn’t you tell me Rizzo moved to Athens?

Good shit Ike! I’m using zero, doom, mag.

IggyWhite · February 17, 2011, 8:52pm

Oh, by the way, how would everyone feel playing at lower damage settings? I honestly think this is something the community as a whole should consider.

FunkyP · February 17, 2011, 8:52pm

Yo Sent why you so easy? Online is so bad i had to resort to a team of Dante/IronMan/Sentinel and was destroying with two characters i don’t know how to play. I call that team Online Scrubbin’.

Nanaya_Shiki · February 17, 2011, 9:00pm

Lower damage might work. I mean, it might even make Phoenix useable, which would make me very happy.

Also, I am part of the “not using Sentinel” crew. rocking Chun/Doom/Dormammu atm. Also, have X-23/Super Skrull/Lei-Lei in mind, but I have to learn how to use them first.

JasonL · February 17, 2011, 9:06pm

The damage is dumb in some instances, like sent, but I have played a lot of matches that end in time out as well and I’m not sure if there wouldn’t be a large skew of Time Overs if the damage setting as lowered.

And Dark Phoenix is retarded and should die in one hit, with someone who knows how to use her approaching her is Dark Phoenix mode is damn near impossible for some and all and all out impossible for others

To bad there isn’t just a setting to lower chip damage, than I would feel things would be alright

ShinkuuR · February 17, 2011, 9:16pm

So what are everyone’s day 3 teams? I settled on Hsien-Ko/Taskmaster/Storm right now, but I’m looking at Tron and Trish as well. Fuck Sent, if he ends up being necessary on your team to win, I’m not playing this shit.

Da_Knut · February 17, 2011, 9:21pm

I bought MvC3 for my kids. They played for about 2-3 hours. I tried to play against them and I could not beat them. I’m so FREY!!! Anyways fuck that game. I really want to learn Garou and AH3
