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

[Raging_Zoroark]

Make X a zoner.

[Magegg]

My honest assumption is that there’s just gonna be one Capcom character per franchise

No, we will have 3 to 5 Monster Hunter characters, I guess:

Hollywood Is Making A Monster Hunter Movie

SFV no chip kill except for supers might actually work better here than in SFV since you have so much more meter to work with.

Trapping is not zoning >_>

To each their own.

The thing is, trapping in Marvel can either be an extreme of zoning or rushdown. It’s not really differentiated from the others the they are from each other.

[Legend_II]

So, has Capcom released a schedule for character reveal trailers?

I hope they don’t do it like MvC3 when some reveals were out of nowhere.

Some concrete dates would be great and hopefully they won’t be far apart from each other.

The next big reveal is a week from now on EspnU during the bass fishing world championships

I hope combofiend doesn’t kill zoning too badly. I want my power of the power of the power of the creator.

combofiend isnt making the game

Isn’t Combofiend the Battle Director?

[Zane_Hitsurugi]

So how do you guys feel about how chip damage should be handled? I feel like chip should stay but you should actually have to get the last hit to kill.

I can see why that fits in Street Fighter but that element has no place in Marvel, IMO.

Could you elaborate?

I don’t think this is entirely true. When asked what they were doing to ensure the “hardcore player wasn’t left behind by too much ‘accessibility’” the developers replied “we hired combofiend”…

he’s going to pass on his and the communities ideas and opinions other than that zilch, he is not making the game, or adjusting the balance

[Doctrine_Dark]

No. He’s just working closely with the team. Seems like he has an S-Kill type of role, albeit more significant with this game in particular.

[Pertho]

Lol this dude. Now thr spiral sentinel trap apparently was spiral sentinel zoning.

[ElliePhil]

What is everyones take on decaying hitstun? Will that be a thing in the new game or do you think they might take a different approach to limiting combos?

[Zachara]

Yes.
At the very least, it makes me feel better to say that I’m zoning someone rather than being a scumbag that won’t let my friends press buttons.

Never liked it. If you know something hits because it’s framedata says so, then it should hit, no matter where in the combo it is. I’d rather a more predictable limit such as a visible undizzy or KI style KV meter be used.

[Frost]

MorriDoom.

That’s not zoning that’s hell

[d3v]

MvC2 undizzy made the game more reset focused without limiting the freedom the series is known for. With MvC3 using hitstun decay, they had to tone down the hsd to keep the game’s combo system free, however this had the effect of deemphasizing resets in favor of one touch kills.

I also thought a KV meter would be a really cool addition to Marvel. Or if (this might be a stretch) they added a points based system that 3rd Strike had for juggles. x move = y points.

The issue I have with hit stun deterioration is that it’s easy to to make moves/buttons that ignore the rules. Think Vergil Sword loops because cr.H wasn’t affected by deterioration or Zero’s Buster/Lightning.
Undizzy means you can die from a combo if the damage is high enough (Storm/Sentinel DHC in MvC2) but infinites would eventually flip out so resets become more important.

Do you have a source for that? Otherwise I’m assuming it’s purely speculation…

[d3v]

KV is basically MvC2 undizzy (not surprising since Mike Z worked on KI) with the addition of you also losing out on potential damage when KV maxes out.

[drunkards_walk]

They should follow the GG example, where the amount of pushback increases as time in hitstun increases
