"I Make Any Team Better." Official Hawkeye Discussion Thread!

Which direction does he jump in for his assist? If he jumps backwards, it probably wouldn’t be a problem. Forwards, it would.

i heard he does it at the same angle as ammy, she jumps forward :frowning:

If memory serves, its just as YoungFox says. However, I still feel like the angle is far steeper than Ammy’s and that Hawkeye does not jump as far forward as Ammy. But this could also be because Hawkeye is far larger than Ammy (making it appear that way) or because I was running on 3 hours of sleep.

im hoping that either the angle is steep enough to work in the corner or that the assist is quick enough so that i can back dash while callin the assist to make it work. that is currently how i get wesker otg assist to work on V.joe in the corner

Since the assist otg’s you can end your combos with it and go into a mix-up where even if your opponent blocks it they are still losing health. Should be fun.

Anyone been messing around with Hawley this weekend?

Played with him quite a bit, his zoning is too fun to pass up. I used him with the Deadpool Trigger Happy assist, it seems to compliment him pretty well. His triple arrows are stupid fast. M Ragtime (volley of arrows) is really useful for stopping super-jumps and such. One of his best traits is his tracking super. The speed and “accuracy” of it is sick, and it stops any super-jump/full-screen shenanigans.

I’ll do some more testing tomorrow. Good fill-in until Frank West or Rocket Raccoon.

Sounds Nice ^_^(could he be the arthur of ultimate mvc3?)

Thanks man, looking forward to it. Sounds like he is gonna be able to get some nice damage off his zoning, something a lot of the old zoners were missing.

I most certainly hope not, seeing as how arthur is a tad bit rubbish.

by that i meant the all around keep away character with enough variety to keep things fresh
and being super fun to play as

lol but of course, he definitely seems that way, except with(im guessing) more health, more damage and more mobility. Can’t wait to learn more bout him and finally get my hands on this in november.

Well Arthur’s getting a health buff(not his only buff i’ve heard)so he’s sure to be better in UMVC3
as for hawkeye i had someone earlier tell me he’s more of a close-mid range character when i called him a zoning/keep away character

Really? Thats interesting, doesn’t really strike me as a mid-range player but what do I really know?

yeah same here i see him as more of a long range character
i mean who the hell uses arrows to fight up close?

well if he is then I’m glad. I like chars that have good range normals, and good mobility. And his projectiles are probably beast too, I mean they have to be right?

i fear hawkeye’s gonna get the same complaints as arthur(wahhh!!! stop running wahhh!! stop being so cheap with those arrows)

lol you actually care bout them types? Them is scrubs, plain and simple and I pay them no nevermind.

no but i run into them a lot…hell i was in a lobby where someone said they shouldn’t even have keep away/zoning characters
that fighting games are about fighting not running away…

So his golden arrow hyper is homing (or it auto aims or w/e), and can otg if your in the air. Saw it in a vid. Also it does very little damage on its own, so my theory is that it doesn’t scale at the end of combos.

Just a thought for the admin: could you start listing moves and arrow types in the 1st page? I think since Hawk is gonna get more and more play time, we should be keeping an eye and keep track on what he has in store.
