The D.M.V. (DC_Maryland_Virginia)

The difference now is that people have invested at least $60 for the games and not a handful of quarters.

I see that timeline and I respect the notion of putting it up. Yet lets be real here. Those are all different games…hear me out. Look at 1997 and 1998 that you posted. All those games could be ran at a tournament. I don’t see you at Xan shouting signups for SF4 and SSF4 an I highly doubt you will for mvc3 an mvc3 ultimate…

Now if they release games on a run like SSF4… a CvS 3… mvc 3… new darkstalkers…etc. etc. an let them breath I wouldnt have a problem.

Let CvS 2 be released during the mentality of the player and company today…

this would never happen because the game is too advanced and isn’t easy to pick up and master.

When? Call me when you want to. I should be home after 4.

glad they classed up ivy’s new look. In 4 she got kinda ridiculous

Today after 6. I’ll give you a call.

I never understood why people are so opposed to new versions of fighting games. 12 new chars, 8 stages, new moves for a ton of people, how can you bitch at that? so your cheesy wolvie/akuma/phoenix team will be garbage now, man up!

the only thing that sucks is it’s supposedly coming out in november, which, you know, every other game in existence comes out within a month of that, so I dunno were it’s gonna land on my list of priorities.

Im not opposed to new versions… just crappy games.

This thread is so salty. It’s actually getting kinda bitch made in here with all the rants and whining

Tron and Haggar assist are done. Phoenix and Zero and Wolverine were nerfed ( zero still has good shit, just isn’t as brain dead) Tron Jump H was nerfed. Akuma Assist was nerfed.

I’m liking the direction of the new game. There’s less things you can just throw out there without thinking, and more reason to actually gauge options and really choose if the risk is worth the reward.

lvl 1 and 2 x factor seem nerfed. Level 3 still seems done but doesn’t seem to last as long.

Honestly. Something needed to be done. And DLC isn’t the savior.

well you know nothing about good games since you joined during Vanilla SF4. LOL at Vanilla

MD still crying about MVC3. I like cheesy unforgiving games so I’m down for slightly less cheesy version of cheesy game. LOL. I like that they didn’t pull any punches with MVC3 and didn’t water the game down with a bunch of lame damage tone mechanics and ways to get out of shit. Everybody has cheap shit whether it’s easy to do or takes more time to put together. XF, TAC changes and Phoenix nerf should help a lot of the immediate issues people had regarding the competitiveness of the game.

Definitely excited that the game is getting this much change this early because a game as crazy as MVC3 definitely needs to have things addressed in a quick fashion. Most of what was wrong with the game was due to the basic game systems being too powerful. Only reason people REALLY complained about Phoenix was that she was a 4th character that had access to level 3 XF that lasted for 20 seconds. Now that her H shots are nerfed and the XF time is toned down across the XF’s that makes it more viable to run to the corner and burn out her XF. Plus now the average character will actually be able to fight Phoenix on point now that she can’t self assist with H shots.

Well now someone is talking to you that’s been around a bit longer. Plus if you knew inerd you would know that he plays a lot of the older games also. 3S is still the game that I will be taking with the most seriousness but of the new games MVC3 is the most dirty and old school of the new games so I will be taking most emphasis on that. Fuck games where block strings and throws are shitty. I don’t wanna play that watered down SFIV shit no matter how balanced it is.

If I have to choose between a version of SF where nothing is cheap and a version of MVC where everything is cheap ima choose the cheaper game. Cheap = fun. One frame throws and real block strings FTW.

I’ll definitely be down to play some CVS2 on the cab at Xanadu also.

LOL at everybody saying ā€œlook at these whiners/complainers. They don’t know shitā€ when the same people saying this shit hasn’t even won a Xanadu tournament for MvC3 and AE/SSF4.

How about you guys stop complaining about the ā€œwhinersā€ and actually do well in a game that you invest huge amounts of time in? So much knownledge about games and still can’t do win.

BTW when are we gonna reinstate the >5 hit combo rule?

I won 2 tournaments in console Super at Xanadu and placed higher at Winter Brawl in Vanilla (9th place) than anybody else that went and that’s considering we had our best guys go down. This is considering I put 3S aside to play that game for about 3 years and only played it for the community and the fact that it had one character I actually liked.

DHC glitch and XF makes things too random to be consistent in MVC3 (which hopefully UMVC3 will fix and if not…more 3S) so not winning basically revolves around me not wanting to play Wolverine + Akuma tatsu assist turn on XF1 and run through a whole team or Magneto press random buttons into DHC glitch. Sorry if that doesn’t make you happy.

Let me complain one time so you can go back to complaining for years and not doing anything like an old MD man usually does.

hold on I’ve won a major before. So…

DJ I thought you were gonna level up in MvC3? Oh that’s right, who wants to WIN with Akuma or Magneto? I want to win with the coolest characters in the game!

Leveling up is about winning not trying to show the coolest combos. If you want to do that shit you can just make combo videos. It is easier to get recognition that way.

people playing mvc2 at my place tonight if any of you want in. BigAzn is on the way over. I’m not gonna check the thread, so call me. 404.MAG.NETO

When the game is less about dying in one hit and getting 35 year long hit confirms yeah sure. I like to understand the game and generally play it because it has a lot of little things to it but there’s no reason at this point to make a big deal about winning in it when most of the good shit is stuff your little cousin can do. When the game is less random I’ll have the edge over other players because of what I studied and how everyone else is worried about how Wesker’s Maximum Wesker super crosses you up. Oh boy that’s harsh when Wolverine and X23 can run through whole teams. Too much worrying about the littlest of shit in the new games.

I’m glad you won your major before so you can sit down and complain now like all the other old men. LOL. If I won a major I would probably do the same I guess except I like playing too much.

I don’t think this is true at all. Nowadays, there’s so much information out there that it would be extremely easy to pick up and learn cvs2 to an extremely competent level in about 6 months (if it’s the only game you played).

And i can’t wait until the day that capcom starts making good games again.

Still a lot of bitching in here.

Marvel is dumb, and Wesker super randomly crossing up is an example of the MAIN issue with that game. It’s too easy to get damage. The game is just really sophomoric.

I watch people play, and the game boils down to who gets hit by the first bullshit, completely effortless 50/50. Runaway/Trap/Defensive teams don’t work, unless you’re running with Phoenix. Even without playing runaway, you have to defend at some point, but there is just no way to defend well in MvC3. That is a problem. Even in MvC2, with all that crazy Magnus shit going on, niggas were blocking all your shit, if your Magneto wasn’t CRAZY. If your Magneto was crazy, you could get creative enough to land hits.

In MvC3, I don’t see a single player out there, successfully defending shit. If you get put in a defensive situation (which isn’t even remotely difficult to do), you just have to pray. That’s shitty. I don’t think the game needs to be slowed down, or made more defensive or whatever… but I DO think it should take more effort to mix your opponent up than ā€œcall assist… do random side switch move… good fucking luckā€.

Hopefully, UMvC3 will be better, but I’m not holding my breath for that shit.
