MvC Infinite CHARACTER Speculation/Request Thread

[AlphaCommando]

I hope for a Breath of Fire character because that would mean Capcom was making something BoF related after a 13 year hiatus.

MVC Infinite Lounge: DLC Characters and Costumes launch Dec 5th

Especially since it’s highly likely this game will have a smaller initial roster, I want as little Street Fighter representation as possible, at least to start. Ryu is already a guarantee and Chun probably is too. Even though I like Zangief, I don’t want him in over the multitude of more interesting SF characters we could get in MvC.

I agree. I want Ingrid and Akuma. Juri, Guile and m bison can come as dlcs.

[RLAAMJR]

If you’re going to make wild speculations, at least provide a fighting style.

I’m inclined to think MvCI is too lighthearted to include dedicated psychotic serial killers. Nemesis is probably the most serious it’s roster has gone, as anyone more ‘evil/deadly’ is a corny supervillain like Wesker, Bison, Doom or Dormammu. Even Thanos, a dude who’s killed half of the known universe before, is not as dark as someone like Joker or this Muse person. And it’s not even a matter of ‘Oh, these characters have done far worse in comics, here’s an instance of that’. MvC is a game where superheroes fight one another in cartoony combat that’s pleasing to the eye. A character noted for being bloody/murderiffic will AT LEAST be highly toned down (Deadpool, Wolverine, Sabretooth). If that is core to the character, like Muse here, Capcom will choose someone else rather than disrupt the tone to be accurate. Otherwise, we’d have another ‘Why doesn’t Snake use guns in Brawl’ issue on our hands.

TL;DR Capcom can’t translate the character’s tone to MvCI without causing problems

And this is probably why we won’t see Carnage, despite being often requested.

But seriously, Capcom, please give us Carnage.

We only got ryu and akuma in umvc3 so if we get them again in mvci, its possible that we can have spiderman and venom. If they add ken, marvel might add spiderwoman rather than carnage.

[RLAAMJR]

So any guess on when the next reveal will be? Hopefully it won’t be months.

Capcom can reveal new characters for CES next month. Hopefully a control scheme has been decided by then.

Im expecting 2 character reveals this december, prolly on christmas day.

I hope so too like at least one and o ne more as dlc.

[Zane_Hitsurugi]

Viewtiful Joe would be awesome imo, he was pretty unique in MvC3. I think they should definitely add a least a few “goofy” characters at launch, because some people play those style characters exclusively. We don’t all want to only play Ryu and Ironman…

If they do bring him back, I’d like for them to rework his moveset, and redo his character model.

[Robo-mitsu]

But with carnage you could easily get away with making him a venom or spiderman skin. He is legitimate a more angry venom, there isn’t anything actually unique about him imo. However they could easily make him into his own character I just really doubt it

Have you even glanced at Carnage? Venom can’t do half the shit he can do with all his tendrils, axe hands, spikes and creating mini-Carnages. His normals alone would be god damn insane.

Someone mentioned that Carnage got wrecked by Sentry, well other times he’s overtaken the SILVER SURFER by his symbiote alone and drove him mad, corrupted and controlled an entire town while controlling the Avengers, been beaten by Deadpool, etc

Clentus didn’t do anything to the Silver Surfer, let alone take control of him.

He wasn’t talking about Cletus. He was talking about Carnage.

Nina or Fou lu would do

[ruthless_nash]

If the roster is limited I would want a severe limitation on character per series. I e only ONE RE, sf, etc characters.

If were looking at 50+ I dont mind upto 4 SF characters (Ryu, Rashid, Guile and Juri). Cody can count as FF.

[willseless]

From Street Fighter, I can see Ryu, a SFV newcomer, and Akuma or Chun-li. Having four SF reps would be so bad. Plus, Akuma can bring way more to the story mode than Chun-li. But I guess the Capcom side of the story mode will have as much relevancy as the Final Fantasy cast on Kingdom Hearts.

And to make sure the game will sell millions more, Marvel should include at least 3StarWars characters.

Oh fuck…I hate how right you are…I don’t want Star Wars anywhere near this game.

Agree they could used instead Capcom characters inspired by Starwars like Plasma Sword character, Vile X8 and Solo from Strider. Then used them alternate costumes as a medium of promotion intead of directly puting characters because they are in a very different intelectual property.

One star wars character at least, darth vader

Fubarduck has been posting the characters Niitsuma considered to include in MVC3 before being scrapped:

Black Widow
The Hood
Ms. Marvel
Kingpin
Mystique
Loki
Vision

I really would’ve liked to have seen Hood in MVC3. I could imagine his invisibility stuff being utilized there with some zoning.

[The_Shakunetsu]

Wow those pick was great Black Window, Loki and Vision should have been in MVC3 long ago.

I remember someone I was talking to suggested 2 guest characters for Marvel Infinite.

Vader for Marvel and Dio Brando for Capcom.

I’m still not sure what to think of this…

[ES_Curse]

After the licensing bullshit they went through with 3, I don’t see guest characters happening.

I actually like it. Although i don’t get why Dio Brando… Darth Vader has had a lot of comics made by Marvel just so you know.

I can think of some ways to implement Vision’s moveset without making him broken. His phasing ability is his only problematic attribute, so he just needs to be designed around that.

If he has a special move that allows him to phase, the rest of his kit can be short range with low mobility/speed so he has to work to get in. His laser can be tied to his supers so that his long range options cost meter. His phase should also have a small window of recovery so that he can’t just phase everything for free (but not so much that he can’t phase anything without getting punished). Allow him to move during the phase to compensate and there you have it.

I’m sure Capcom’s already come up with something like this or better by now though, since not including Vision in this game would be a big disappointment considering how relevent he’s become in both the comics and the MCU.
