Low health is making the game boring and anti-climatic

You don’t seem to know the definition of the word “random.” A mistake is not random, unless it is a mistake in the worst flip-a-coin cross-up or mix-up situations. Even then, mistakes were probably made in getting into those situations in the first place.

I play the games in a casual fashion. Answer the question, you like a game like the one I explained?

not online.

well unlike you I LOVE strategy. this game in it’s current condition DOESN’t promote that. it’s all chaos and high damage randomness. to answer you question: no silly.

i’ve been playing fighters before you knew what they were. high damage from easy combos/tactics will lead to countless random outcomes. stop trying to cover up the truth man. not cool.

I played CT Arakune. If you can tolerate his brain-dead approaches and mobility, you can tolerate UMvC3’s damage.

Fights last longer than they did in vanilla, I don’t see a need for changes really.

You want low damage in a game when it’s three characters per side?

Yeah, but your analogy implies one guy has something the other doesn’t, that it’s not fair, in fact its incredibly fair, it’s just balanced on a razors edge, which is why it’s so exciting.

Also, the game is not as messy as you are claiming, you really sound like someone who doesn’t really play Marvel. And there’s nothing wrong with that, it isn’t for everybody, I can’t stand SF4 for example, but I’m not gonna try and claim it isn’t a good game or anything.

If the game is so random why were MvC3’s tournament results so consistent, with skilled players constantly coming out on top?

all I hear is

[details=Spoiler]

did go to evo? did you see the bs that “worked” to be on top? RANDOM. ONE hit was all it took for a shitload of matches to be decided. unless the one in the lead did something stupid. how many people survived after getting hit ONE time by wolvie/she-hulk/mags/wesker/phoenix?

SF4 is casual SF. comeback mechancs, loose inputs, ect. really not worth the text i’m typing about it. no more though.

So… “Get of my lawn” then? Or “walked uphill 10 miles in the snow?”

it doesn’t have to be real low. just low enough so players have to use more than one tactic to kill. like for instance three basic magic series chains should
be what KOs a character. You should start the match with ANY hyper meter either. THAT right there shows you this was made with casual players in mind more, but capcom isn’t going to tell heads that.

yo dude advice
shut the fuck up and quit complaining about a game you don’t like and tyring to play the superiority card

“OMG THE GAME IS TOO HARD/BORING BECAUSE YOU CAN GET HIT AND LOSE”
“IM SO SKILLED I PLAY GG”, so does like 500,000 other people, playing doesn’t mean you’re good. why do people think fighting game skill is transferable?
and there are like 6 other fighters coming in the next what like 6 months? hell kof 13 next week? CALM YOURSELF DOWN.
we all knew the damage was high since vanilla, we’ve seen more videos of ultimate then i’ve like watched of vanilla altogether, there no way you were this late to the punch, its mahvel, characters die quick.
simple as that.[SIZE=1]close this please.[/SIZE]

i’m not talking about THAT game anymore. sorry.

You say you like strategy but choose to ignore the importance of character selection.

You call it random because you haven’t figured out how to avoid a bad situation.

You call it a crazy mess because you’re still green and don’t understand whats going on and instead of being reasonable person and notice it’s your inexperience, you get defensive, make snide comments at the game and it’s players.

You seem to be well aware of this but there are other fighting games out there. Different strokes for different folks etc. You don’t have to like every game, it’s okay for you to not play this game and not like it but don’t parade your opinion as fact and misusing the word random because you don’t understand. You don’t like the game, big whoop, play something else.

Game was aimed at casuals when they added Marvel characters.

OffTopic: I like your sig.

On Topic: The arrogance in this thread is absurd.

Slightly more On Topic: Imagine you combine the 3 health bars into 1 character. That means combos in this game would do no more than 33% overall damage, depending of the characters chosen of course. Damage still too high?

You don’t seem to know what you’re talking about. You complain that Marvel is to extreme, but you don’t like the opposite. You claim to like the older games, yet they were balanced closer to marvel than SF4.

You also continually assert that matches are decided by total dumb luck. I’m not about to claim that luck never happens, but to insinuate that the outcomes of a major tournament are more or less random, is just stupid when both evidence and common sense point to the opposite.
