Just to be clear I do like TvC, when I had a Wii I picked it up soon as it came out in Japan last year. It was a good game and I had high hopes for it, but you can’t look at the TvC scene now and think it has the same amount of hype as Marvel does, and like y’all said it just got released in the US with new characters and balance tweaks barely 4 months ago.
It should be active and healthy when it comes to the community, but it’s like you have to go to the TvC forum to even hear about the game. If I stick to FGD, my local forums, and the SSFIV forums, I will at least hear SOMETHING about SF3, Marvel, SFIV, even KOF. Even when I go to the TvC forums when I get curious I barely see anything new or interesting…which is sad because like I said it IS a good game.
BTW the whole ‘released in the general public’ shit doesn’t count, there are plenty of other games that are import only like Melty Blood for instance that are more hype than TvC. So that’s no excuse, especially when the Wii is much easier to import with than other consoles.
Also not understanding the hate by DoomTN. Why bother posting in a MvC3 thread when you hate Vs. series?
I think the thing going against TvC, more so than the characters in the US, is the fact that its on the Wii. I bet the community for it would have been a lot bigger if it were on PS3/360.
Here is your quote: “And honestly, IMO, fuck marvel 2. It literately houses every quality I think a bad fighting game could possibly have. And fuck the Vs. series period, honestly. I mean, I kind of got enjoyment of out some of them, but I seriously think marvel 2 is one of the worst. If not, THE worst.”
Doesn’t sound nearly as positive as what you said after this. Based on the above post it seems pretty silly for you to even be in a MvC3 thread at all. Seems like these kind of games just aren’t for you.
Sorry for skimming. Still don’t get why you’re posting here though if you hate the versus series.Shit, I can get some enjoyment out of games I hate too under the right circumstances but you don’t see me going over to a sports games forums posting up that I hate the game and hope it changes enough so I can enjoy it…
Yeah man, Doom was so awesome but once he got combo’d that was it… He would be so much better with a slightly faster air dash. They cannot leave Doom out of this game…
Makes me wonder if they’ll leave in the classic assists like Dooms rocks and Psylockes and Kens AA… I really hope so.
Yeah, the game should allow the player to choose which assist they want to use.
On another note i think that a game like tvc is a better home for capcom characters like ryu and alex. I think the marvel gameplay and speed just arent as suited for a character like that to be as viable.
Hopefully capcom can use characters from its different games for the right engines. Or suit the characters to engine its in.
As i stated before, like ryu and alex and chun for the tvc world
Someone like capcom and strider or tronne for marvel (cant think of better examples if there are any atm)
And characters like rolento, sagat and blanka for cvs.
To me that seems like it would make for more characters being viable if they were to keep them to the respective games they fit best in.
I think if they made basic movement options like at least air dash universal that would go a long way towards making more characters viable. Another thing that fucked with the characters is even though we got all the characters from all prior games, a lot of them lost half the shit that made them so broken and good in the first place. If Capcom hadn’t tried to tone down everyone in MvC2 we would have ended up with a very different game, that’s for sure.
I don’t know if I’d want everyone to have an air dash to be honest. Especially not an 8-way dash where everyone could tri-jump. I like how MvC2 had people who had double jumps and triple jumps… Sure it wasn’t always as useful as a good air dash but it made the characters feel more unique to me and made them a change of pace from your air-dashing characters.
Frank West and Frank Castle would be my main team for sure.
As for the roster though, I’m almost certain that most of the Marvel Side will be made up of characters that have had big name movies recently or coming up (Spider Man, Thor, Capt. America, Iron Man, war Machine, Hulk etc). It would be nice to see some lesser ones, I hope they don’t overlook them in favour of the hollywood crew, or at least have a big enough cast to throw in some more obscure names too.
I could just imagine someone from Capcom coming ot the thread, missing all the seirous posts and then basing his research on something dumb.
“So it seems they want Birdie and Q, and want them to be insanely unbalanced and broken… Well gotta give the people what they want. I think I saw fatalities too, better chuck them in as well…”
Well, no, definitely not 8-way, and not everyone needs double/triple jumps, but just a basic forward air dash would make it a bit easier for more characters to get in and start some sort of offense. Might not make them god-tier, but it would hopefully tighten up the tiers a bit so that we have less of a shit tier.
EDIT: Missed the post above; we do need SOME of the Hollywood Marvel stuff, although they shouldn’t be a main focus. Always felt something was missing, you’ve got Doc Doom and NONE of the Fantastic Four to oppose him, haha.
I don’t recall people bitching about Super Turbo and 3rd Strike being mentioned in the Street Fighter 4 threads. Ever. In fact the TvC haters in here seem to be over compensating. Perhaps deep down they know as some of us rationals do that MvC3 will likely adopt TvC’s traits. Interesting.
