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

How do you not have Spider-Man on your list? If we do get 24 characters I doubt Capcom will have more than one rep per franchise.

Roster predictions (24 characters and the no X-Men and FF bullshit)

Mahvil

IronMan

Thor (took him out of the previous list because reasons lol)
Iron Fist
Black Widow
Elektra
Punisher

Winter Soldier

Calling out some alternate skins:

War Machine for IronMan
Falcon Cap for Cap America
Girl Thor for Thor lol
Miles Morales for Spider-Man (or that shitty costume Peter had earlier in IronMan’s footage in Civil War movie)
Mighty n 9 for MegaMan
Any other MegaMan for MegaMan lol
MegaMan Zero for Zero
Strider Hien for Strider (classic Strider was in MvC3, maybe they will try something slighty different)

I’ll gladly pass if any of this is true (except the story stuff). 24 characters and 2 vs 2 would be horrible and slower gameplay is the last thing I want.

That would be even worse since their character models would be in the game but we can’t play as them. I hate assist characters.

no way we would get 2 darkstalkers if there’s only 12 capcom characters breh. It would be someone like Phoenix Wright instead unfortunately.

1/3 of Capcom is Street Fighter? Nillin and Batsu over Zero, Phoenix Wright or even Vergil? Not gonna happen unfortunately.

so the 4chan guy says that they’re literally going to have robert downey jr. catcalling morrigan?

Shame Resident Evil 7 has none of the previous RE cast involved. I doubt Capcom will use RE5 Chris or Wesker again. RE 6 Leon is the most likely candidate but that Leon sucks ass. Maybe RE7 will have some cool villain or enemy/boss they can put in to promote the game.

I’m used to Skull Girls, so “only” 24 characters doesn’t bother me at all (but casuals will complain for sure). If it’s true that there will be emphasis on story, this means that the game may attract a good number of casual players (believe me, single player content is much more important than easier controls or slower speed).

And I’m with Devil Jin on the 6 button matter. 4 is not bad, but 6 is much better IMO.

Just put RE4 Leon Kennedy and call it a day. And 24 characters is fine for a starting cast if the game is 2v2. What’s wrong with some of you?

I really liked the original characters in Marvel 2, Amingo was so fun play.

Honestly, if one of the original characters came back, I would not be opposed to it at all.

As for original characters in Marvel 4? I’m not really sure if they’re going to go for it tbh.

Edit: The Iron Galaxy guys are using 360 sticks, chat is popping off LOL

Skull Girls isn’t a series with almost infinite awesome potential characters like MvC. 3 vs 3 with a large and weird roster is a large part of the appeal of the series.

I don’t want 6 buttons as a pad player, how would we call for assists?

I agree that single player content is the most important thing for casuals, but a larger roster will bring in the casuals as well. I hope to see at least some kind of Story Mode, Arcade Mode, and for God sake give me VS CPU.

Just use Nemesis again. He’s an iconic RE villain and transcends whatever Capcom does with the series.

“I don’t want 6 buttons as a pad player, how would we call for assists?”

Same way Skullgirls handles assists (or SF4 with focus or Guilty Gear w/burst and rc or honestly a ton of fighters) : just make assists button combinations such as mp+mk.

Note, I’m not necessarily in favor of 6 buttons, but making it 6 buttons wouldn’t make it so you couldn’t have assists somehow.

Well, there’s a lot of NPC’s in the SG universe that I would love to see as playable characters, but unfortunately Lab 0 don’t have the funds to add them to the roster. But that wasn’t my point. What I meant is that repeatedly seeing the same characters on almost every team never bothered me or made the game boring or anything. Maybe the variable team size and the many assist options allowed some sort of variety in a game of 13 characters (even with trios being possible).

I play SG with a 360 pad and I never had problems with assists. X, Y and RB are the punches, A, B and RT are the kicks and LB and LT are the macros for the assists.

Doesn’t mean that at all, since she’s still part of the properties they own and there’s a Captain Marvel film with Carol Danvers as the star coming up.

I mean that wouldn’t be a problem, but surely that would be a step back from the single button assists in MvC3.

People complaining about 24 characters aren’t thinking about match ups getting stale, we’re thinking about how that only leaves room for the boring and predictable characters like Ryu, Cap, etc.

Marvel doesn’t give a crap about practicality in their comics,

They do actually, especially when it comes to women. Hence why several of their female characters have been given new, less objectifying costumes, like Carol’s CaptainMarvel costume and Elektra’s new costume, where she actually has pants.

Because she’s a freaking Air Force Captain and her current look actually shows that.

That’s not practical at all, particularly to the viewers. [/quote
Female readers/“viewers” would disagree.

Hulk is being objectified, he needs a shirt. Marvel sexist confirmed.

Well, he’s dead now, so he has other problems to deal with. Plus he’s a rampaging monster.

Even as a pad player I’m pretty versatile with layouts but I think I’d prefer the ABC Launch A1 A2 layout from the last game… or something similar.

Maybe LP LK HP HK A1 A2 instead, and have a normal and/or command normal as launchers instead of a dedicated launch button

U dont need one button assist if this is going to be like mvc1 where assists are used in more defensive/continuing blockstring ways…ill need to see gameplay before judging tho.

Is there something I’m missing, but this 24 character MCU and VA stuff with hard reset 2 v 2 is nothing but a rumor on 4Chan, right?

Literally baseless and we are just bored and we are entertaining it or is there reason for it to seem credible?
