Hallelujah! MVC2 is more like Christina Hendricks imo but that’s metaphorical semantics. :razzy:

I seriously hope so, because it feels like I haven’t played a fighting game in ages.

This. The ratio in skill + damage is incredible skewed in mvc3. The huge amount of damage braindead loops and un-rollable otg “combos” - which have a ton of hangtime to combo is disappointing. The game punishes dropped combos more than it does defensive mistakes simply because you give the opponent a chance to do the same braindead easy combos to victory. The game feels empty with weak fundamentals as a result.

In MVC2, to do highly efficient and damaging combos it took a level of technical skill or foresight to set them up. You can’t just pussyfoot your way to victory just because you mashed on crouching light or pressed F-Heavy every jump to get a random throw, resulting in a dial-a-combo otg. Comebacks in mvc3 are boring because the effort simply doesn’t match up to the reward, and it’s funny because even the announcers stopped being hype in streams because mvc3 comebacks are commonplace.

It’s a glitch in flight mode. Normally you have x-amount of frames after you activate fly where you can’t do anything.
By doing a flight mode and IMMEDIATELY going to neutral then going to a direction, you eliminate this and reduce it to 2 frames, startup not included. Sent’s startup is REALLY Fast, so you can do shit like this to make combos.

e.g. his normal BnB fast fly is this…

s.RH, sj, lk, xx qcb+kk, neutral, up+lk+commando assist, lk, dp rocket punch.

or…

s.RH, sj, lk, xx qcb+kk, neutral, up+lk+magneto assist, hp, lp rocket punch.

I might have a long difficult slavic surname.
But it brings me solace that my name isn’t Sukhwinder Deep.

I once pulled off 4 loops on Sols Dustloop. I retired right then and there.

Man i slipped in the shower last night and hurt my back. Going to the doc in a minute to have it checked out. Hope it’s nothing serious.

Hatred_Edge · February 22, 2012, 11:48pm

I was never able to get down Sol’s Dustloop. I had better succes with FRC combos with I-no.

lunch_hotdogs · February 22, 2012, 11:53pm

I used Venom because I can’t do those fancy combos.
Though… the Sidewinder loop wasn’t as hard as I heard…

shatterstar · February 22, 2012, 11:53pm

till this day, I suck at FRC’s but could get dust loops in GGX2. anything after GGX2#Reload I can’t fuck with it.

AC+ murders my Soul(Sol).

SoVi3t · February 22, 2012, 11:56pm

I’ve never done any of the Nova loops, but I’ve done a few reps of some Strange ones, and I felt like a boss ass pimp when I did it.

And thanks for the advice lunch/breakfast/whatever. I didnt know that. Hell, there is a ton of shit I really dunno about the vs games. Now if only I could make my Doom tri jump properly, instead of oh so obviously I can’t get his fat heavy ass across the screen fast enough

I really need to play some more MvC3. I keep watching videos and reading shit, then I hop on and get destroyed and wait for AGES for a match, then put it aside again. I don’t forsee myself playing that much once SFxT drops, either.

SIR! i would like to say that i fucking love playing gief in mvc2. nobody is ready for gief so when you start him with like drone assist and an AA - ninjas get opened like a can of tuna.

WHY IS ZANGIEF FLYING AT ME FUCK WHAT DO I DO?!

edit: also my cable is pretty solid but honestly i’ve done more retarded comebacks with [S]cyc[/S] bonerclops than any other char. i’ve also had more people rage quit on my colossus (with drones assist) than most other teams i use.

i think it has something to do with people not really wanting to accept that colossus is all over they ass and will often catch them+assist with simple shit like c.lk, c.hk, shoulder charge. then of course drones are coming and colossus is in there air what do i do? get shouldered again from the air. lol. plus his command grab in the air is great.

lunch_hotdogs · February 23, 2012, 12:07am

That’s when you know they suck. Watch waht happens when Gief tries to chase Storm. LMAO

fishjie · February 23, 2012, 12:10am

in seattle we have a player named brian ma who mains gief in mvc2. he rapes magneto all day every day, because everyone underestimates gief.

runaway storm does wtfpwn gief though yeah lol.

Comebacks in mvc3 are boring because the effort simply doesn’t match up to the reward, and it’s funny because even the announcers stopped being hype in streams because mvc3 comebacks are commonplace.

I think there’s a couple of things that contribute to MvC3 looking a lot more random than it is and to making it more random than pretty much any of the other Vs games. The first of this and the culprit of many people hating this game is the fact that there are normals that just magically lead to full combos. For example: Wolverine’s Dive kick, Sentinel’s j.S, Dante’s j.S, and a couple of others that I’m not mentioning. These hits put the opponent in a state where anybody, regardless of skill level can convert into easy damage. The closest thing to this in MvC2 is j.HP dash magic series xx launcher. But at least there that took some thought to produce as opposed to the other shenanigans. So when older players look at this game and see that stuff happen, the first reaction is and then :looney: followed by :wtf: and ending in :annoy:. Coupled with the really wacky hitbox that Dive kick and Dante’s S have, the game is really weird.

The other thing that is really bizarre is the fact that characters can close the gap coming in and hit you with a mixup AT THE SAME TIME. Why can Dormammu get in your grill while covering his teleport and putting you in a 50/50 for a free TOD all with 2 buttons? That was also the problem with Wolverine in MvC3 because he could berserker slash with Akuma and he had free protection, mix up and TOD out of it. A couple of other characters have similar stuff because of the teleport. Because the game is some 10 minutes into its lifetime but it may get better in the long run. Compared to MvC2, where 2 characters had teleports (and really good ones at that), there’s too many people flashing all over the screen in this game. Only a couple of characters get in the honest way. Although if you figure that some of the better characters are still getting in the honest way (Viper, Spencer, Hawkeye, Doom) then it doesn’t seem like its that much of a deal. This doesn’t mean however that being able to teleport from across the screen, close the distance and put somebody in a 50/50 is not retarded still.
