MvC Infinite CHARACTER Speculation/Request Thread

There are too many Capcom characters I want back on top of so many that deserve to have their first appearance.

I still very much want a spider-man fighting game like how the X-men had their own fighter.

If I was doing the Capcom roster of this game, I would limit the number of Street Fighter, Resident Evil, Darkstalkers & Mega Man/Rockman characters to 3 apiece while I would limit the number of characters from the Devil May Cry series to only 2, to prevent those series from taking up most of the roster.

Ryu, Chun-Li & one more SF character that’s not a shoto (No Ken, Akuma, Sakura, Dan, Sagat, etc).
Morrigan & two more DS character besides Felicia & Hsien-Ko, like Jon Talbain & Jedah.
Chris, Wesker & one more RE character.
Mega Man X, Zero & Sigma.
Dante & Vergil.

Voila. And I would also like to have characters from Capcom’s other series as well, like Nathan Spencer from Bionic Commando, Strider, Captain Commando, Arthur from the Ghosts 'N Goblins/Ghouls 'N Ghosts series, characters from other series like Rival Schools, Onimusha, Ace Attorney, Phoenix Wright, Power Stone, etc. Give everyone a chance to be represented.

You can’t really limit Mega Man to 3 as several Mega Man subseries exist. You can have Zero on there and not him rep the X series. He has his own series of games with it’s own design and moveset. Three different Mega Men were used in the VS series (classic, X and Volnutt). TvC had three Mega Man characters and each one from a different series.

I would agree with this, but I can’t see the Zero from the Zero series being in over the one from the X series, especially when both Sigma & Mega Man X are in (& in which both X & Zero have a long history of fighting against Sigma). Not to mention that he’s very popular throughout tournaments.

It would be awesome to have groot as a stand alone as opposed to chang/choi situation or maybe it be a chang/choi with gen styles situation

Speaking of alts, i wonder if alt colors will be like in MvC3.

Yeah and Venom ain’t just another Spider-Man. His decent than other rival villain in Marvel.

By the way, is the giant WANTED list on one of UMVC3’s stages considered “canon”?

I’ve recently looked at the screenshot within the game’s gallery and found many characters to be “apprehended” (by Sentinels I suppose) or killed. Mega Man was one of the free ones, Rogue was apprehended, and Captain Commando was killed

they could just pull a day of future past shit
say that that is in an alternate reality

Man, that is such a cool poster. Makes you think what UMVC3 would look like if it was supported today.

I doubt it. Honestly, it feels like this entry is a reboot of the series to me and even if not, that poster shouldn’t be taken as gospel. Heck, the source it was based on was an alternate reality and the day was saved and that reality didn’t come to the 616, so not sure why they’d make that the mainline reality.

Also, in the story bits like Haggar’s ending and others, things didn’t look like a robot ruled dystopia.

Yeah, definitely isn’t canon. I’m also pretty sure the Daredevil in the Shadowland stage was possessed by a demon, whereas he’s shown as being his normal Matt Murdock self prosecuting Wesker in Chris’s ending.

It’s not canon. The wanted list is a homage to this

Oooh, that’s pretty sick

Wait, people didn’t know that was an homage to the classic Days of Future past cover?

PVL is still learning his Marvel lore.

Not everybody reads comics around here

I’m pretty sure this game will be X only. Dr. Light’s AI is in this game on top of X, Sigma & the X stage. Dr Light is apparently the host of the Gallery & I heard he’s Iron Man’s AI instead of Jarvis.

I feel that sort of cements that Mega Man will only be repped by X in this game. I think that’s a weird decision but X is my favorite Mega Man sub-series, so I don’t mind. I’d love for Vile to be a DLC character.

Depending on how much DLC we get, I think the “major” Capcom series could all get a DLC character. Street Fighter, Mega Man, Resident Evil, Darkstalkers, Devil May Cry & maybe Dead Rising. I think those series would all have characters that would be guaranteed to sell.

Still holding out for Blues, even if only in DLC.
