Its official MvC2 is back with online play!

do the math. If you pay 80$ for that version of the game, it only cost 20-25$ to buy a dreamcast and some cdr’s…

whew, preppy vs scrubby msp gets ugly for msp. Get shot with the quickness

maybe strider\doom will be fucking stupid god like with lag tactics?

That make sense since the DC Jap version had online mode from the begginning… They may just update the netcode right?

Based on your posts I can tell you don’t know how to play the game.

AND YOU DON’T NEED GOD TIERS TO RAPE: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=lGeXFNPFlSM&feature=related

More or less.

Marvel is like Street Fighter in which if you lose a round, you lose a special move and a normal for the subsequent rounds.

Marvel is 1 round.

3S is 2/3, and sometimes even 3/5.

you got negged because most of the above is stupid. marvel is a game established for a minute now. no, people who play marvel are not gonna just stop picking who they pick to be nice. I also dont think everyone will flock to the same characters, because the more people playing, you could argue the more diverse the game can be. plus there are other good players who dont use msp or whatever. vdo of course, zaza with the double wolverines is tight, and preppy too. im just sayin. dont sweat the technique. im sure players will be able to organize themselves to have top tier battles and low tier battles, and it wont be this all top players raping people playing with triple shotos shit, and they can utilize srk to even setup these online get togethers of low tier only, or open tier,etc…

i think the biggest thing people need to get through their heads is this is a possible setup and test for if the company might consider mvc3. if we can show the hype for this, and get them the financial results they would like. we can hopefully inspire capcom to give us another gem. there are big bucks being made off of comic movies nowadays, and a possible new version of one of the hypest and longest standing games ever, that involves some of everyones favorite comic and video game characters. shiiiiiiiiiit

there is so much hype that could be mixed in between mvc3 and all the future comic movie releases, its disgusting. get creative

Its not that its the fact that you keep constantly crying about how the game still isn’t rebalanced. So what big deal people kept playing the game its not like they suddenly stopped and said wow marvel sucks lets stop playing altogether.

Just because you keep whining about how the game is unbalanced got me annoyed . Welcome to 9 years ago. If they decide to rebalance it cool congrats be happy but since it’s not going to dry up your tears and either play the game or go play KOF UM like you oh so praise :arazz:

Oh btw no hate at all i’m a pretty decent guy in person :rofl::wink:

Consider losing a character like losing a round along with a good amount of your options

Im sorry but how do you lose a normal/ special move when you lose a round? :confused:

As long as your practice hard enough you can get pro with just about any character.

Hopefully this sparks some interest in people to really reinvent the series in some fashion, even if it only creates teams that aren’t part of the top five or what have you for just a little while.

If not, well then whatever, we’ll just get more of the same, and that’s cool for people who are into it.

:stuck_out_tongue:

You can have any shitty team as long as you use tron as your crutch. Since people are playing low tier matches with tron now.

A year ago I played this dude in a low tier money match, and the dude had Marrow, Morriga, Tron. I thought that was a little unfair because I was trying to use Strindrine v2 aka Strider/Spiderman/Wolverine. That team has chance and hell against Tron

Top 4 in general take more skills. But Sentinel is my favorite of the top 4. I don’t think nerfing only the top 4 really helps like some people suggested. Simply because then you have Cyclops, Doom, Iron Man, Black Heart, and Dhalsim taking over. Okay maybe that’s more characters. But the tiers are pretty distant in this game to the point only nerfing top 4 actually won’t balance the game.

Alright so my only question is about how much memory do you guys think we need to get this? All I got is about 100MB of memory left.

take msp for example

mag is your point, storm is your hadoken and psylock is your shoryuken if you’re comparing it to a ST shoto. Well in ST whenever someone jumps @ you and they’re in range for an AA, its automatic shoryuken for free. If psylock dies, think about having no more “shoryuken” but still maintain use of normals for AA and the same goes for storm.

@ Branh: You know you can multiquote :confused:

But its not about nerfing the GTop but raising everyone else up. Put in CvS2 incarnations of some characters if you want (CvS2 Cammy / Sakura :tup:) but I don’t care. I’m still playing Mags/Gambit or Ironman/Captain Commando

@ shoultzula: Okay he was relating MvC2 to Street Fight, I thought he said it happens in SF

I dunno, I’m just not convinced.

This really does take me back me back to Diamond Jim’s heh. The pecking order has more steps than just “veteran” and “average.” I agree that the people do reflies and resets are going to be relatively few and far to start off. But that’s not what drove people away from MvC2 in the first place. It was those “average” people that figured out or saw that if you pick certain characters and do these certain strats, you’d beat most everyone easily if they didn’t make a good team or weren’t good. You didn’t need to be able to do Tiger Knee AHVB to be a threat with Cable early on. You just needed to stop doing FPx3 so much and start jumping back while calling your AAA and waiting for an assist to appear. That’s what people started to hate.

But even that’s overlooking a phenomenon that arcade MvC2 never ever went through. In this year of 2009, we just had SFIV drop. A game that not only brought back a bunch of “I haven’t played a fighting game since 1996” people but also introduced SF to newcomers. Now, later in the summer, there’s this game that features Marvel superheroes (in the middle of comic book movie popularity) fighting famous Capcom/SF characters (right after SFIV released) in an over-the-top 3-on-3 gameplay for $15. This is going to lead to very large influx of people with no experience at all in the VS series. I’d go as far to say that these new people will buy MvC2 the most. People that probably think SFIV has pretty fast gameplay. People that don’t know what a “magic series” or an “air combo” is. And there is no lucky “random ultra” that can give someone an easy instant 50% comeback combo. Hell, there’s not even gonna be a tutorial or a trial mode most likely. These people will have a hard enough time with FPx3 Cables and double-sweep Guiles. Then throw in runaway Icemans, glitched Juggys, and Tron assists? Then throw in rushdown Magnetos, AHVBx3 Cables, and any kind of Sentinel? Plus the fact that this is now the Internet where the anonymity increases the douchebaggery exponentially?

It’s going to be genocide.

I hope the achievements/trophies for winning with “alternate” teams helps this for a while.

potentially useful for you. Tron’s good, but she’s not the end-all be-all. You’d want to counter her with either a good assist or with an air-based strategy. Your team doesn’t really have any good chemistry (said without seeing a video) - I would expect it to have problems against any decent low tier team.

I love Tron, but I play her for Tron and will switch to Tron-A or the laughable Tron-B if it’s “true” low-tier. She’s just an interestingly designed character. :slight_smile:

What more can you do for lower tier characters? For example, what could you possibly give someone like Captain America? It’s not like he’s a bad character, he just doesn’t have the tools to compete in a top tier world. What options does Captain America really have if he doesn’t have any strong assist to back him up? If MSP is rushing him, what could you give him to stop it? Okay he does have an uppercut and uppercuts have good priority, but then you’d either have to have really good reaction time and really Captain America doesn’t really have that much of a damage option.

Giving every character more mobility doesn’t work either. I remember I pretty much predicted this in TVC. All it does is make the game boring since everybody can do everything. This is what separates Marvel from doujin games.

Hate to say this, but Marvel CAN’T mathematically be balanced. And if you did it would be a totally different game and probably wouldn’t be as fun.

^Didnt I say that :bluu: I said you can try to balance it by raising low tiers, which will just make it more fun, but it doesnt matter its perfect already I aint complaining.

Low tier Mahvel FTW anyways [media=youtube]KEWNJfpBWGY[/media]
