RIP, Marvel Vs. CAPCOM

Dunno why people aren’t aware that most UMvC3 players know the game is ass. That’s literally why we play it.

A patch that was mostly done out of complaints from people who got blown up on week 1 tatsus, jab pressure trolling and such. I was actually talking about a patch demanded for the actual community of players who do understand the game better than the outside spectator. Same deal with UMvC3. A patch demanded by the actual community that actively plays the game.

Unfotunately, neither of these games pull big numbers or have any actual international relevance for Capcom/Marvel/Namco to keep trying to support.

Whatever, Marvel players need to forget about a miracle patch and just enjoy the doom missile,lightning loop, soulfist fest with optimism.

I played it because I saw a lot of creative possibility within the game. I saw a lot of viable characters, viable teams, viable strategies. It really looked like this would be a game that rewarded players who put the most thought into the game rather than the players who simply grinded in training mode until TOD combos became second nature. I saw potential for fun.

Clearly, I need glasses.

^-- Please reread this if you possibly missed it. Seems like everybody is painfully aware of the problems in this game, but it’s the only game that feels right for a lot of people so you make the most of what you have. :bluu:

Pretty much the way I’ve always viewed Marvel (or at least MvC3/UMvC3 as I didn’t follow tourneys much if at all until 2009, and even that was sparingly at first) is that, yeah the game may have some ‘broken’ things or ‘problems’, or whatever, but whenever UMvC3 (or MvC3 in 2011) had its Top 8 come up at EVO, the amount of sheer unadulterated hype it generated was off the damn charts.

DLC vs Capcom. They destroy each other and mega man is saved by bird je… I mean by Infaking.

I knew that Disney Corp. was evil, but never to this extent… They took everything I loved about being a child and are slowly but surely destroying it. I grew up in the arcade playing MvC2 and seeing this series come to a potential end is heart breaking in a weird way.

Although we need a Tatsunoko reboot to fill in any future Capcom tie ins.

Dunno about the part about being right though, it seems more like it is only about money despite if they enjoy it or not at this point.
for every excuse for not playing other games, those supposed flaws are always worse on mvc3

Lol what money? Did you forget what game/genre this is? There are only a few people who are playing and winning enough to be making enough money to care more about the cash prize than the game.

You are 100% right. So?

I wasn’t joking in my post so I don’t get the LOLs. What I do think deserves an LOL is the number of people who, for whatever reason, feel vindicated by the old-as-fuck news that Marvel 3 wasn’t getting any more support. That much was obvious for over a year.

We’re actually more or less saying the same thing: MvC3 is fun but is also really really terrible. Much like MvC2. Something can be terrible but fun, and its assault on the senses is pretty soothing for most of us ADHD crackheads.

The key difference here is that back in the day everyone was enjoying mvc2, while currently mvc3 is a game were all the top play because is what brings the money, not because they like it or enjoy it.
And you know pretty well that i certainly know that a game can be terrible but fun (hello HnK), but that doesn’t mean that i will not call BS on the game being considered the right one when everyone an their momma keep complaining on how bad the game is, are there people who find it fun? yes, are the majority of the top players part of this group not likely seeing all the shit they complain about it.

At this point is very obvious that the game is played because is what bring numbers and money, more than one player has expressed that if there was another popular game they will drop it.

Pffft, absolutely, anyone and their grandmothers know how terribad umvc3 is, i say it agian, any complaint that you could have for x game umvc3 is worse, way worse.
And before you come here giving me shit, i didn’t say it is not fun, i enjoy it more than mvc2, but don’t pretend that the mule is an unicorn when is obvious that is not the case.

And why does Mahvell bring in the money? Because it’s got more players in the first place.

Again: What money?

Lol so it goes from “no one likes it” to “top players don’t like it”. JWong and ChrisG and Yipes complain about it, yes. There are also guys like FChamp and Flocker who probably adore it. Long story short, the opinions of “top players” mean jack shit in this discussion.

And I’m gonna give you more shit because absolutely no one is trying to pretend a mule is a unicorn.

If that’s what you think I’m trying to do then you need to actually read my posts.

Yeah… nope, it is because the endless loop, we don’t play x or y game because there are not enough people playing it, we will play if more people play it, people stop playing games because not more people play it
ad infinitum.

And bragging about getting more players when the 90% of them are barely average yeah…
Justin Bieber also has more fans than lets say Dream Theater, that doesn’t make it better.
Just because MvC3 caters to the most lower common denominator means nothing about the quality of the game so STFU please, i know that you like to bring idiotic points every time that you can but we are not discussing if mvc3 gets more play, we are discussing how terrible game it is and how common it is to the players of the game to 1st complain about the goddamn game, 2nd complain about x stuff on y game when that x stuff is egreriously worse on mvc3, so please, refrain to start your typical BS.

Nope we’re discussing how Marvel actually isn’t dead despite the fact that Disney pulled the license - which is due to the fact that the game is still being heavily played thanks to the large player base.

You’re the one going out of his way to shit on the game.

Discussion marches on you know, also you pop out of nowhere implying that mvc3 getting good numbers at tournament entries make its faults non existent.
Mahvel like you call it having good number of entries is inconsequential to what preppy and i are talking about, that the game is simply terrible

Edit

I bet that if MikeZ would come here dissing mvc3 you wouldn’t be here white knighting it

Wow, he actually said “white knight.”

Only because you keep on derailing it.

Meh.

Everything I’ve said about the community being able to support the game just stems from my own argument that a games legitimacy in tournament play comes not from whether or not it’s objectively a good game, but simply if it’s good enough for it to survive in the tournament circuit (i.e. grabs enough players).

Hecatom being an idiot whats new

Goddammit I just kind of defended UMVC3, fuck

Fixed it for you
