My copy arrived the other the day, I haven’t bothered playing about with it much since my arcade stick is due to arrive soon, figured it was better to just start the game with that rather than try compensate for the controller only to have to change in a day XD
Yeah, once you get a feel for the controls it’s hard to change to a different one, especially swapping out characters (at least for me)
Exactly! It’s ok though, arcade stick arrived yesterday so I might do some UMvC tonight
No. Capcom doesn’t need the encouragement.
Well Capcom doesn’t have the marvel license anymore, so probs no more MvC. And LoL.
Buy it if you want to try it.
Don’t buy it if you don’t care that much.
It shouldn’t be that complicated.
It’s more about, if there is no one too play with online. And all are already really good and i just end up getting stomped every game.
If you’re more concerned about that stuff than the actual game, then no, don’t buy it. Online sucks, anyway.
Marvel online sucks (It’s somewhat bearable if you’re a beginner) and most of Europe hates the game. (The only places that I know that don’t outright hate it are my country, Portugal, and the UK. France has some great players, but in general the country’s playerbase hasn’t taken a liking to it. Same for Germany I believe)
Also, the game is kinda getting rarer by the minute, so if you do find it, I’d say yes, buy it, if not only as a collector.
Thank you. Exactly the info I was looking for.
Thanks for the advice.
With the whole “Marvel is now Disney/ There will never be a mvc4” etc. Is it worth buying and learning this game in 2014? I’ll be playing on xbox360, how’s the scene there?
I think is.
Good. As far as I can tell, there are still plenty of people who play.
Cool, I’ve been doing my research and found out that the DLC characters can never be downloaded again?:S Is this true? isn’t there a hardcopy with the dlc characters already in it? Feels like a huge blow if I can’t play/have access to all the characters in the game.
Are those characters strong in the current meta? (Important to know Matchup etc)?
Sadly, yes. 
Sadly no.
Neither are weak characters but have niche roles in the current meta.
There are only so many Shumas and even less Jills, so you’ll have to scrounge around for matchup experience. That doesn’t really put you in any worse of a position than the rest of us. However if you want to play them or need to access them for training mode, that kinda sucks. Jill’s not hard to combo but Shuma has one of the weirdest hurtboxes and weight classes in the game, so you have to be able to practice comboing him if you don’t want to drop stuff mid-match. Again they’re rare, but I have seen people literally lose matches because they dropped their bnb on Shuma one too many times.
I started up this summer with this game and I love it! I get crushed online though, but ah well. On PS3.
.
So I have been playing street fighter for about 2 years now and watched a lot of marvel cause it is mostly on before sf and I’ve come to think maybe I should try the game.
So my question is are there any online warriors in Europe and are there new players i can practice my scrub skills against, just by searching for matches, like I would in SF?
