(Really do think we need to turn on the hoses)

Don’t blame me: people are already hating Jean. And they’ll rage even more if they get their asses handled by her.

Things like that just amuse me.

NERD THE FUCK OUT IN

Yeah, Emma takes awhile to get used to. Eventually it’s revealed that, through her cold exterior, she’s actually a somewhat decent person who truly loves Scott and the others. She’s what Weeboos would call a “Kuudere” (or Tsundere… I’m not that well versed in Weeboo bullshit:rofl:)

Also, I like the character change for Scott. He actually feels like a *character *now, instead of just some random douche who gives out orders. Though admittedly, I find him talking down to Professor X like a bitch just plain wrong.

Does every character in MvC3 have a LV. 3 Hyper?

So Dark Pheonix is Jean’s “LV. 3 Hyper” in this game, but actually really a LV. 5 activation.

So that means she has no actual LV. 3 then…

Or maybe she’ll have both, a LV. 3 and a LV. 5, whoa!

Watch Capcom tones down Dark Pheonix from a LV. 5 to only a LV. 3 activation… heh heh.

If turning into “the single most powerful character ever in a Capcom fighting game” isn’t worth it for you then nothing else will be.

Not all characters have level 3’s no.

Almost everyone does tho’ >>

From that G4TV article:

"In fact, Dark Phoenix is the single most powerful character in Marvel vs. Capcom history, transforming upon your death when all five super-move bars are filled. As Dark Phoenix, you?ll fire off a tremendously powerful onslaught of dark energy that?s virtually unblockable, but you?ll also have a countdown lifebar that?ll drain rather quickly before you revert back to Phoenix."

Unblockable!?

What moves are exactly unblockable?

Also, as soon as her health depletes in Dark Phoenix mode, she transforms back into Jean Grey with probably an HP of 1?

I also noticed watching the video, that the Dark Phoenix transformation actually produces a knock-back attack with minimal damage. It’s likely also has an invincible initial start-up.

The whole banking on Dark Phoenix thing just isn’t my style. What if she gets snapped in and klilled? There goes all that precious setup you’ve been running. Plus you’re pretty much not allowed to spend Hypers on anything else prior to that. I’d rather have a lot more flexibility with my gameplan than just waiting for God to (maybe) show up and kill everything.

They should just make her transformation a level three. Since she dies in one hit and her health drains. It’s stupid that you have to build up five meters just to keep her alive for 20 seconds, assuming she doesn’t get hit. Her regular and dark mode health combined should equal Chun li health.

Also, since we know one of her assists, I’m thinking that her other one might be the fire trap she places on the ground.

Oh hai Strider.

It was way easier to build meter in MvC2 also. AND it didn’t cost five meters to activate. If Phoenix has some solid stuff outside of banking on Dark Phoenix I won’t have a problem with her, all I’m saying is that going all or nothing on getting Dark Phoenix out there doesn’t seem like a good idea in my opinion. That’s all.

Yeah, I was actually just thinking last night that Dark Phoenix is the new Strider, as all of her attacks let off little flares Ouroboros style, and she can teleport.

Hopefully she doesn’t live and die by dark phoenix otherwise she will be doing more dying than living. I hope its like bangs furinkazan in blazblue, its a nice bonus but you don’t need it to win. But I can see her being good outside of that, my only worry is her health. Ill reserve my full opinion on her till i get the final version but right now she looks like she could seriously go either way.

So, judging by the new vid, it looks like her healing hyper basically prevents the red demage, thus technically improving her vitality. Her projectile game looks nasty too.

Yeah, I called the red life part a bunch of pages ago. Only made sense, though the final hit isn’t negated since it kills her (same with cutscene Hypers, I think).

Non Dark Phoenix looks pretty solid in the new videos, even if that is part of the point… zoning game looks even better with how fast she seems to recover out of the phoenix projectile… thing… that vertical dive kick and what looks like a trap… Still have no idea why everyone’s so obsessed with DP and forget about the fact that there’s a character there BEFORE she dies.

Funny how tanky she looks with healing field up…

But yeah, totally roll tier :rolleyes:

And only costs 1 bar :V

Pretty much she’ll be inside that force field rocking the world with pretty nice pressure and rushdown. I’m more than happy.

Screw DPh, Healing Hyper is the shit.
