Hey guys, I’m definitely looking forward to MvC3, but I’m wondering if Capcom is considering adding in fan favorite characters via DLC, among other things, like how they’re doing with the possible DLC update for SSF4.
And since I’ve heard they’re straying away from the idea of clone characters, maybe Ken won’t make the cut (especially since Deadpool inherited a shoryuken). But I’m sure there is a huge fan base both on this site and worldwide, that there could end up being an outcry for the addition of Ken.
I bet there could even be some petitions made for Marvel characters who didn’t make the cut once the game is finally released.
So this is not a thread to speculate which characters could be DLC (since we’re all still speculating who will make the first/final draft), this is a thread to speculate if there will be any DLC.
And if you think there will be DLC, what’s your opinion on that?
The usual. Everyone’s hype at first, then when they realize insert character here isn’t getting in, they rage and call for Capcom’s head, claiming they’re stupid and the shit should be free. Sound familiar?
well I was hoping for more civility since it’s still early in development. I’ve heard that MvC3s “final draft” roster will be smaller than SSF4’s current roster, so I’d be kind of disappointed if the “final draft” of MvC3 feels and looks incomplete. I hope that the hard copy of MvC3 has enough depth to it that I won’t feel the need to buy DLC to find the depth I’m looking for.
It is guaranteed to look and feel (and be) incomplete once they release DLC that you haven’t bought.
When you get right down to it, “We’re going to release a lot of cool stuff via DLC!” means, to gamers committing themselves to keeping up with MvC3, the same thing as “We’re going to charge you an extra $20 or more!” So it’s hard to get too hyped for that.
Only should be free if it’s already on the disc don’t have a problem if it was added later because they used the revenue gained from the game’s sales to make that dlc. DLC should be extra not what’s already there.
Just because it’s already on the disc doesn’t mean it has to be free. In the past things HAD to be in the disc, and for Wii games that do get DLC it has to be. Besides, the developers decide what is in the official game and what is DLC, not anyone else. They have their right to make it free or not as well, and I’m fine with both of those statements; I won’t really complain when it’s not priced very high to begin with. Now if the price is higher than that for something undeserving of it, THEN I’ll complain.
I’d love if they had some sort of demo for the content before forcing you to buy it to try it, but that kinda ruins some things I guess.
I don’t see how it’s any less “complete” without the DLC content though. =/
I agree with this. Especially in a game like this, where people can still look forward to seeing their favourite characters even after they’ve seen the final roster.
Which are free, and are usually only used to fix glitches…the only reason SSF4 is getting a balance patch is because the Arcade game is getting rebalanced, and discrepancies are bad.
But if you hate patches that much, never go online.
yes but MvC2 didn’t have multiple releases. Just been a progression from MvSF to MvC2. No DLC. You get what you pay for. Granted the arcades were still alive back then, and the internet was less prominent in daily life.
