Not sure if anyone has seen it yet, but here’s UMVC3 artwork from Murata, the One Punch Man artist:
Looks pretty dope.
Love the top portion
‘BEHOLD, GODS AMONG MEN AND VILLAINS MOST FOUL. DORMAMMU, DOCTOR DOOM, SENTINEL, TASKMASTER, MODOK, MAGNETO…also hi, Firebrand, nice to see you’
thats fkn sick
The game can still be dishonest without assists, you just need broken point characters instead of one-size-fits-all assists. Look at MvC1 and before then, you’ll see dominating characters like Red Venom, Gold War Machine, Strider, and Wolverine. Even in TvC you had Zero’s bullshit, so broken characters still exist in 2v2. If they make >90% of the cast super linear like MvC2 and MvC3, then the game will become boring.
Yeah, basically. Marvel is just a grimy game in general. Removing assists won’t change that at all.
I won’t mind broken shit, as long as everyone can play a different kind of broken. Like Hulk being the only one with a TOD if you use the power stone, or Felicia with speed stone, or Morrigan with meter gain stone.
I just hope this game has air recovery.
I would like Marvel vs Guilty Gear
Then it wouldn’t be Marvel.
TODs will always exist in the top tier, id just like to see TODs be different from top tier character to top tier character instead of it just being like umvc3 where everyone has the same TOD base just some characters can do it a little better than others. makes it boring af
In would prefer reset based but the resets be like really fast resets like in mvc2
I would prefer the short combos of TvC.
I’d like TODs to come from generous use of meter and the in combo tagging system. In general, the system should allow for combos that act like the MvC2 Storm -> Sent DHC TOD as long as the player is spending resources.
I would like for supers to be the most significant source of damage output this time around. Think Sentinel and Cable, which were characters capable of TODs but needed 3+ meter to do it.
What were the recent roster leaks I’ve heard a couple rumours of? Saw Max post a video on it(Recommended tab)
They already stated that was one of the reasons for the changes. The “teamwork” part comes from them saying that they don’t want new players to feel that they can only use a character that they may like as an assist.
With 2v2 there’s definitely LESS room to be sloppy with your 2nd character. I think if TvC had more competition and lasted longer, there’d be a turning point where Marn would have to have leveled up his Alex greatly or switch to a better character. Zero was probably just so busted in that game that it would have worked for while, but eventually he would have run into some character or some player that dealt with Zero well and then Alex would inevitably become a liability.
If the characters do reach some type of a solid balance and/or counter matchups become common place, that will definitely force the issue of not being sloppy with second characters.
Another thing with TvC is part of the issue was that only certain characters could snap back (funny enough Alex was one of the characters that could). This meant less way to force the issue of hitting someone and then forcing in the character they’re shit with and pressuring them. If MVCI allows everyone to snapback then that will help people pursue and attack their weak characters that they only use for combo extension or just to look cute behind their main character.
Marn would have probably had to change up once more busted stuff than Zero (shocking I know) were discovered. Just watching tournament footage, Yatterman super baroque unblockables look straight crack, 10/10 should be in a Marvel game.
