Here’s the vid. Please leave feedback.
Thanks for pressing them on Spidey issues. Just curious, do you know if they had considered switching the web swing back to a QCB motion? I’ve seen this request from a number of people.
Good to see I wasn’t too crazy since I noticed some of the stuff Rahsaan did, most notably zip being negative (at the very least, far less advantage) on block than in Vanilla.
The game still has a steady amount of balance to go through - I think a damage nerf was inevitable, but I’m just hoping a lot of his tools will still be there. Web Ball being untechable for instance, and the web throw hard knockdown.
Also, sorry for dropping everything on stream, hahaha. It’s definitely different from tournament/casual play. Glad to have the experience now though, definitely won’t look as dumb next time. Scout’s honour.
In any case, Future Foundation costume is as bad ass in person as it is on stream. And there was a cute cosplayer in a Spider-Man outfit as part of a team too. So yeah.
If umvc3 last til next evo I’m making plans on coming to participate. Gives me a year to learn some stuff about better rushdown from magneto x
goddamn that sucks completely. so pretty much no more using web throw in combos anymore. its not like spidey was an OP character anyway so why the heck are they nerfing him? how the heck are we going to be able to land UWT now as well? i can already tell my time in training mode with my old team is going to be extremely frustrating.
I’ll need to see it myself. Even with these nerfs, I think Spiderman is still the same overall character…
-Webthrow not a hard knockdown is lame, but all it did was give spidey really weird team mechanic shenanigans with other characters with fast OTG or team super gimmicks
-web ball tech anywhere hurts quite a bit. i never used this reset but it does hurt. i think they might change it back
-webzip negative on block - with the speed boost, i think it is fair albeit making spiderman harder to use. I think it should still combo on hit from decent ranges. since it is faster, it’s still pretty safe since you get to block/tech throws. mostly this means we can’t derp. layer that up
I still hope they change some stuff based on what Rahsaan said though.
Yeah but it really depends on how negative it is. If it’s a couple of frames then it’s not too bad as it would be changed to strictly combos and movement. If its anything more than the slowest :l: in the game its game over. Speed boost or not that shit needs to go back to positive on block with a very minute speed cut to warrant it being good still.
New Universal Spidey BnB. Works on EVERYONE. This is for y’all who get pissed at the fact that we can’t launch->Web Throw people like Tron and desire a BnB that still manages to rack damage without assists.
i guess i’ll just do that one from now on
Awesome. Someone needs to try this at the next available UMVC3 build since launch> Webthrow no longer works midscreen.
One can only hope… I bet it would still do about 700k , provided Web Throw is actually scaled in the final product.
I think jumping loops, web ball links and web zip combos may become his new bnb stuff is umvc3
So is my brother. He was acting G1 for a minute there too. Maybe they know each other?
oops killed the thread…
Lol, nah you didn’t kill the thread, but I don’t believe it’s necessarily probable that they know each other; there’s actually quite a few high ranking soldiers in the nation. It wouldn’t hurt to check though. What state does your brother work?
He is working in D.C.
Quick survey. What’s more important when it comes to combo videos? Practicality, to include combos and setups ranging from easy to advanced execution? Or impracticality to spread ideas while showcasing a characters potential further? Obviously there will always be a mixture of both in a combo video but as far as entertainment value goes and getting info out there which is more important to you?
Airborne i cant wait until you get your hands on UMVC3. I played it alot and im stomped. The spidey/doom magic is still there. But spiderman/drones got hurt too severely by the launch xx webthrow nerf. Hopefully some new webzip cancel technology will make him even more buff. Im hype.
The crazier and more difficult, the better. If it doesn’t surprise me, I close the video.
Hate to jump back on the UMvC3 tip, but why the heck would Capcom NERF Spidey, out of all characters?? Really? It just pisses me off – his Web Throw setups were team specific, and he is a relatively difficult and risky (at least IMO) character to use. Even worse, what is the point of nerfing Web Zip? It’s difficult to get in already, and even with the ‘speed boost’ of the web moves, I don’t see it becoming that much better of a move, and now it’s getting nerfed to where I have to block and get put in disadvantage everytime I want to get close and think they might block the web zip? This alone will make matchups like Sentinel and Hulk from reasonable into a nightmare.
Capcom likes to change stuff for no reason at all, hoping that we’ll just pat them on the back for it. Hopefully they’ll come to their senses before release
