I really do like playing this game. And although I’m commited to learning XvsSF and SFIV at the moment, I am curious to know about this game. This seems to be the dark horse in the Marvel series. No one plays it anymore, no mention of it, and if anyone talks about it, they just say “it’s broken” (with no details of course). I find this game really fun, with it’s assist system. It’s physics also feel a bit better than XvSF, and it is obvious Capcom made some efforts to fix what was wrong in the previous game. Very rarely can you combo off throws, and FSDs seem much harder to obtain. anyway, what makes this game so broken? Who is top in this game? Why is this game so utterly ignored by the competitive scene?
some notes:
I play with Dhalsim/Chun in XvSF, and I’ve noticed some changes to the two characters. Chun seems NERFED to bloody hell in this game. She can’t AD low like she use to be able too. Her air dash can only be done at a jump point, which limits her. Her links appear to be the same though, although her SA2 seems to do less hits. Other than that, with a nerfed air dash, the removal of her triple jump, seems like she isn’t the force she once was.
Dhalsim seems better to me. I’ve never been able to successfully do his drill infinite in XvSF (still working on it), but his d.lk,mk, fk pressure seems to still work here. It also appears to be easily to get a close mk from his mk as well. He got his fly in here, an air Yoga inferno, and with the addition of wave dashing, he seems to be able to close distances fast. No Airdash like in MVC2, but he still looks beefy in this game.
And I did NOT find a thread concerning this game, if one exist, then I have no problem with the moods closing this one. I would very well just post in the existing one.
I’ve only played the game a handful of times, and I can tell how stupid it is. With Wolvie, superjump, mash MP, do Berserker Rage (Or whatever his speedup is called), then mash c.HP until you dizzy them, rinse and repeat.
It’s not as played anymore because (from experience) it’s not as fun as the other Marvel games. Wolverine (as mentioned above) and Omega Red pretty much wreck everyone else’s shit, and yes, the other peeps are nerfed to all hell.
I loved MvC1, it was just…Strider/Wolvie all fucking day. I played Megaman and War Machine and to be honest I’d probably get my ass kicked by anyone using Striderine simply because they’re using Striderine.
LOL @ complaining about Striderine whilst rocking WM. Step up yo duo/infinite/uncombo game, son.
Spidey/Armor Spidey, Blackheart/Meph, Cykes, Ryu, and Sim can hang too (and Mecha Zangief too to counter Wolverines and Spideys), but at the end of the day it’s still Wolverine and Omega Red.
I picked Omega/Wolvie first thing. Turned out they were tops. XD
I’d use Spidey/Omega or Captain America/Wolverine from time to time. But yeah, Omega/Wolverine for life.
Same thing happened with MvC1.
I was like “YESSSS STRIDER!!!” picks
"YES NIGGA IRON-MAN!!!" picks
"OMG PSYLOCKE ASSIST!!!"
Random dude at arcade: "Tier whore!"
Me: WUT?!?!? :amazed:
Honestly, MSHvsSF gets some love with me, simply because Ryu ain’t trash in here like he is in MvC2, and he’s way more playable as a character in here then he is in MvC1. I love the fact that he’s still fast, and has good setups, and his aerial hurricane kick is still beastly…honestly I forgot where he’s ranked, but isn’t he like Top 5 or Upper-Tier in here?
However…:mad::mad: to all them Wolverine and Omega Red players…fucking Wolverine and his Berserker Mode Bullshit, and stupid ass whiffing with mp that gains him near lightspeed meter.
i always knew about how overpowered wolverines qcbpp is in this game , but what makes omega red broken ? i saw in a combo vid his infinite vs blackheart i think it was standing lk , mk , hk , sj ad lk , mk , land repeat … does he have a piss easy infinite against everyone what makes him broke ? what makes him top ??
seriously though i love the game but it is wolverine and omega all day.
i believe omega can combo off his coil throws from the ground. like if he throws you straight up i think he can sj get a magic series then combo into another throw. could be mistaken its been a while. i remember landing spideys infinite a lot as a kid :tup::lovin:
