“All-new characters” sounds like deceptive marketing talk to me, like “In-Game Footage” from CoD when they’re talking about cutscenes, or “Made from 100% whole chicken” on those cobbled up chicken frankensteins people call nuggets.
But then you have Sneakers on GAF who said they are new to the MVC series.
If you really think that Leon will be in the game with Chris already in the game, you’re out of your mind.
Chris’ inclusion basically means Leon or Ada are never coming to the game. Thanks a lot, Capcom.
We can still get Jill though. Better her than Leon.
There were 3 RE villains in the previous game. Yes, Jill was regarded as a villain in MVC3.
We have no idea how the RE reps will be utilized in Infinite. Chris and Leon have a new movie coming soon. Having both of them in Infinite is still within the realm of possibility. I’d rather them include BSAA Jill, though. Chris and Jill were a team in Project X Zone 2, so that seems likely here.
Ideally, Leon would be a more melee Chris, Black Widow would have MVC3 Jill’s moveset, and Regina would be more like Chris/MVC2 Jill with dinosaurs.
I’d be fine if the character entries would be limited to 2 per franchise, at least on the Capcom side. That would suck for the Street Fighter side until DLC since they just went with the classic “Ryu and Chun” duo
I don’t think Star-Lord would be much of an obstacle for the Punisher to be in this game. I mean, the type of weapons they used are completely different.
Frank Castle isn’t a laser gun user. Not normally.
You guys saying we won’t have franchises with 3 reps are out of your damn minds. Street Fighter will have 3 reps minimum. RE is hot shit and Mega Man is being pushed hard in this game, so I think those franchises will get 3 reps too. I do think Dante will be the only DMC character this time, and we might only have 2 Darkstalkers. You also have other games like Dead Rising and Ace Attorney that just don’t have enough breakout characters to have more than a single rep.
If Vergil doesn’t return, I can definitely see Nero being the other DMC rep; especially if it’s DMC4 Dante. I doubt Dante will be the only one.
SF will likely get 1-2 more reps.
RE is definitely going to get at least 2 more reps, if not more.
I see Frank returning.
I see Zero returning.
I see Phoenix Wright returning.
I see Haggar returning.
I see Spencer returning.
I see Arthur returning.
Viewtiful Joe might return.
Asura seems like an obvious newcomer.
One of the guys (Saiyko) said Spencer’s return is a good sign for other obscure characters. Nothing confirmed, but implied at the very least.
Rivals Schools rep? Possible.
Star Gladiator rep? Possible.
Red Earth rep? Possible.
Monster Hunter rep? Possible.
Onimusha rep? Not likely.
Gen from Godhand? Very possible.
Captain Commando returning? Possible.
Jin returning? Possible.
Breath of Fire rep? Possible.
Power Stone rep? Very possible.
Dragon’s Dogma rep? Possible.
Lost Planet rep? I doubt it.
Unlike Marvel, most of the Capcom side is a toss-up.
SonSon in Infinite or we riot.
If there is a Star Gladiator rep it will likely be June. I think they will try to avoid sword users.
Going to laugh my ass off when Zero is revealed as DLC.
That nigga better cost 1000 dollars. Wanna be cheap nigga? spend that money
I’m afraid that they might not put Amaterasu in this game since she had 3 weapon stances (reflecting the 3 weapon types in Okami), which was much more intuitive for LMHS than LP/LK/HP/HK. A shame too, since slow+time stone sounds insanely fun.
Arthur might have a chance, but remember that he was meant to fill Mega Man’s “niche” in MvC3. We have X now, and plus as a projectile zoner the system changes would give him an even harder time than before.
Frank is 100% returning, he has everything going for him to be in the game.
Viewtiful Joe is sort of a toss-up because his series hasn’t had a game in ages. He would be really damn easy to port over from MvC3 though.
Let’s be logical
Mind you all of the marvel side currently appear in the mobile game;
I can almost guarantee all the avengers, including spider man.
Black widow/scarlet witch/gamora better bet your bottom dollar
I feel like young Laura or All New Wolverine with Old Man Logan dlc are coming
Gwenpool good chance
Magik is a wildcard. And I would purchase the deluxe edition if she’s announced.
DLC hopes Namor and Cloak/Dagger
I have no thoughts on Capcom. I’m sure they want to promote what they have going on in capcom, which is nothing, which in that case further reduces the chances of representation of Power Stone, Onimusha and Star Gladiator.
lol I wouldn’t be surprised if they gave us a character from RE7.
Jill needs to be RE1 Jill or forget it. I rather have Ada Wong in place of Trish with a trap style and sniper rifle.
Saturn Dyer is an interesting rep too
Capcom need to balance sword users, gun user and MAGIC-SATCHEL users in there roster.
Frank is one of Capcom’s Current Biggest Stars along with Phoenix Wright, Felyne and RE rep
That time was also when Capcom was releasing Ghost and Goblins ports, I hope we get Astaroth or Arthur in Canonspike.
So Jack Baker probably coming to DLC…
Since Breath of Fire is being revisited we could expect it soon.
I’ll take that bet.
I’ll bet that not even one of them appears. Name your terms.
Well she can only switch to 2 stances. Just will be a bit unintuitive to switch from disc to sword with ddLP and switch from whip to sword with ddHP
I don’t see it being a problem with Infinite control scheme. Have her switch weapons with LP/HP and LK/HK. Tag is it’s own button so it won’t overlap.
