A lot of people complaining about the animations in MvCi are usually complaining about models.
One thing about MvCi that kind of irks me is how dark the game is. Game needed to be brighter in a lot of different ways. Feels like Marvel asked for NRS cuckery and ended up visually handicapping the game on accident.
Still dont like all the OTG stuff going in in MvC3 or MvCi. That property went from special to boring really fast. Cant stem that tide though; everybody wants more and more combo stuff.
Yeah, but people will latch on to the easy meme complaint. How many people still say that Kage has Dans animations because of that YouTube video (he doesn’t).
Models and animation they kinda go together, I’m not sure it’s always so easy to separate them.
Example, penance stare has the same animation from MvC3. However, it’s a different model, and different special effects (and no screen shake) so it looks really cheap. In this case that animation was made for a whole different look, it feels like they just copy pasted and did the bare minimum.
I would be curious to know what caused it. Low budget? Low time? New/inexperienced team without proper supervision? Marvel/Disney meddling screwing up the time tables?
Probably a massive time crunch and a lot of Marvel meddling.
That last sentence is most likely correct. Ultimate Alliance 3 has that same look. I’m not gonna wash Capcom of this (I don’t actually think the game looks bad as its beautiful in motion), but I don’t think its a coincident all Marvel games not Spider-man more or less looks the same. They also probably agreed to get the game made, and then Disney slapped them with an impossible dead line. There’s also the issue of Marvel going full insanity against X-men for games at the time (And all media). Without X-men; Capcom actually did put all the big names into the game, but no one cares about that apparently. Between that and Marvel games never actually selling too hot, Capcom took the speedy/cheap route to get the game out and not lose money. It is what it is. We can only hope the rumours are true and that Marvel took their heads out of their asses to let Capcom work. But on the flip side, I don’t know how much money Capcom can pump into the game when it’s ultimately going to sell less than 4 million regardless.
There’s no problem reusing the same animation since those were to represent a technique and movement of a fighter for a special moves.
That would be my bet too. Rather, marvel meddling causing a time crunch.
You hear about that with lots of liscensed games. Where the need for license holder approval gums everything up.
It does make you wonder how the games that pull it off (Spider man most recently), handle it.
Gonna repeat myself for the millionth, but Marvel has always put their hottest license in the games.
90s hot license = X-Men
Hot licesne when MvC3 = Earth’s Mightiest Heroes
Hot license with MvCi = MCU characters
Problem is that people are so dumbfucky that they dont understand how good that is for us. Just like we had that mindblowm feeling with Xmen vs SF, kids get to have that feeling with MvCi. They get a game full of the characters they know from the movies.
But we just get meme people saying dumb shit and coming up with reasons to cry. Instead they should’ve been haooy at a roster that would hook kids into trying out FGs.
For what it’s worth I didn’t really have much of a problem with the roster.
As much as people hate to hear it, they had most of the “functions” represented, and have a good selection from the popular MCU.
Well if what DoctrineDark said the truth about his cousin trying out MvCI… then its doubtful the game would ve been appealing to kids
Hated the Marvel side of the OST, too. The overall OST isn’t anything special, but the Capcom side had some pretty cool themes.
Marvel is on the record of bringing in their own guys to do the music for their side. That’s why nearly all of the Marvel themes had that orchestra sound.
We played worse games because of hot licenses. Besides I dont need all the kids, just the few.
The other part is that Capcom made the game uggo.
I don’t know which series is more guilty of copy and pasting animations/models.
Tekken or Smash Brothers. I think I’d have to go with smash. At least tekken has updated models.
I say we’re getting new SFV content at Evo. What y’all think?
super street fighter v announcement 
Evo is more likely than E3. But ono said something about the next event? Whenever that is.
Its definitely Evo, I would be very surprised if we get something at Combo Breaker.
You callin Ono a liar!?!
Ono said something about next event? Where
Correction, ono said “next time we meet”, I guess I inferred (incorrectly) that it would be the next event
I don’t agree with you often but this is best post you’ve ever made.
