The Wishlist and Speculation Thread. Ver.2

Not gonna make any character suggestions. Capcom’s not reading this and even still they probably got the message by now. I’m sure new characters are being crunched right now. The threads at Capcom Unity are most likely for next year’s character packs. Having said that, I may dream up more wishlists until I am told to stop because it’s plain fun to design moves and discuss them. Secondly, I have desires for MvC3 outside of characters.

  • While I initially found the lack of spectator mode as disappointing as everybody else, I recently reflected on that. MvC3 has more crap happening on screen, in sharp 3D, than any fighting game of comparable design (going way back to Rival Schools). Don’t think about the characters and effects, think about all assets on screen. The background, the sound, the shifting music… A damn galaxy appear in the background during team hypers. Frankly it’s amazing the game connects people at this quality, even if it’s still syrupy. So we spectate lifebars instead. Great. How about this: A live ticker that tracks major events of the match. Big combos, hypers, tags, cross-counters, DHCs, KOs, and more events of the match would be highlighted on a scroll as it happens in the match. The lifebars should also shift in accordance to who’s on point. If we can’t have a working spectator mode, I can live with this.

  • I love the team reserves, even if people seem to forget it exists. But I like to color coordinate my teams and call them by name. When I choose colors in the License Card, I would like to see at least little jpeg icons of the characters so I don’t have to remember each character’s ‘number/color’. I would also like to name my teams, and have the name show up on the ‘comic book cover’ of the team after choosing them. The name could show up over or under a player’s card during the match start-up. Wouldn’t add to gameplay but people would like it (like me).

  • You’d think there would be a website where you can view people’s licenses… Maybe even post cards as links on other websites (for sigs and such).

  • Since homebrew soundtracks were kinda popular for older versions of MvC2, maybe a modern take on that should be added to MvC3. XB360 can already burn music into the HDD, and games like the WWE SvR series take advantage - so how about ‘dynamic user music’ for your gameplay? You could have a simple user interface where you assign your own music for whichever character or stage you want. People won’t be able to hear it online, but who cares.

A spam character that would put Deadpool and Sentinel combined to shame.

Or an ultra violent character that would put MK9 to shame.

I’m starting to think that shadow mode might be free.Think about it,why else would they have the license that shows your ofense/defense stats.If anything you probably would pay for the pro shadow packs.

I’m all for DLC but really now 2 years they held back on characters and many other things. This game is very bare bones but nobody wants to shell out 60 dollars (another game) for characters.

DLC Characters should be new faces not the same ol characters from MVC2,MVC. Really now how hard was it for ryu to complete as a character for this game? He was in MVC2 so having him transit into MVC3 isn’t that hard. Even if fans ask for certain characters nobody really wants like 5-6 characters from the same series. This is why the roster isn’t as great. Marvel side has too many X-men and Capcom has too much fanservice. Give love to Fresh faces and Series.

As far as characters go. For Capcom - Fei Long, Jon Talbain, Batsu, Urien

Fei Long would be one of the hardest to use, for the fact that it’ll be immensely difficult to get in. But he’d be very strong, he’d have rekkashinken as a hyper which would be 5 really quick rekkas that’ll have hitboxes the size of half the screen horizontally. L and M chickenwing would differ in strength but H would have slow startup but it’d be fully invincible (his main tool to get in).

Jon Talbain is the only character I used in DS and I like him a lot.

Batsu is sick. Game could use a RS character. He wouldn’t be hard to create because of his TvC appearance.

Urien, no 3 SF3 reps. Urien is a very different character. Add him in. Although Aegis mixed with certain assists could make him gdlk.

From Marvel - Sandman, Hawkeye, Jubilee, and Nightcrawler

Sandman - another character from Spider-man. He’d be vastly different from anyone in the Marvel series.

Hawkeye - The only thing that makes this unreasonable is that Taskmaster’s hyper is arrows. But he’s taken moves (charging star, web swing) from characters in game, so his “aim of hawkeye” would imply he’d be in, but I realize his super takes a lot away from his ability to be playable.

Jubilee - probably would be the lowest tier character in the game, but Marvel needs more females. Her and Sentinel could have a rival introduction, haha.

Nightcrawler - he’d be sick. The only other x-men I feel needs to be in this game.

For stages : Why not Ryu’s rooftop stage? That shit is so nostalgic. TvC did it.
Or any scene from Devil May Cry. That series had great designs to it.

For features : as everyone else said, the things we already expected. Replay, spectator, rematch, connection bar, etc. I’d also love an only training mode. Maybe some time in the future, they could have DLC missions. Possibly missions that are submitted by players?

Oh and do something with Ryu’s theme. I thought SFIV’s version was bad.

DLC Campaign

  2. [media=youtube]HCU24dRuM04&feature=player_detailpage[/media]
  3. [media=youtube]tcPEIQQbPPc[/media]

Where are the Frank and Juggernaut campaigns?!

To be honest, as much as I’m disliking the amount of Street Fighters in this game already, I wouldn’t mind seeing M. Bison in there. He brings a new playstyle (unlock another Street Fighter villain :p) and I recently got into him in SSFIV. Though I’d give him up in a minute if Dee Jay or T. Hawk made the roster lol

At this point, I feel Megaman and Venom are a must. There really are captivating characters.

I wouldnt mind them :slight_smile:
but i voted for these 3 obviously, spider woman and ms. marvel

And Bison is amazing in SSFIV, and i liked him in mvc2. Bison, Wesker and Doom = WIN!

Should’ve taken it there…

The characters I’d personally like to see return:
-Roll
-Captain Commando
-Gambit

Any newcomers I’d like to see include:
-Captain Blue
-Phoenix Wright
-Juri

There should be an X-Men stage (in front the Xavier Mansion with various X-Men and New Mutants in the background) and a Street Fighter stage (Alpha 2 Thailand stage :slight_smile: )

I fully agree. perhaps one on top of the baxter building, since the FF arent in the game.

Ken Movelist:

Step Kick: :f:+:m:

  • Forward poking attack.

Hadoken: :qcf:+:atk: (Air-Ok)

  • Forward moving projectile. Does not travel full screen, fades halfway. Travels downward in the air. Strength of button adds distance, but not by much.

Hurricane Kick: :atk:+:s: (Air-Ok)

  • Three-hit special movement. Counts as special move. On the ground you can go forward only, but it can start and/or finish combos. In the air you have :f:, :uf:, :df:, :u:, and :d: flavors. Ends combos in the air.

Shoryuken: :dp:+:atk:

  • Ken’s classic anti-air attack. Has more forward range than Ryu’s dragon punch.
    :l:: Soft knockdown, hits once.
    :m:: Soft launch, hits twice up close. Fist on fire. Peak height can be canceled into Hurricane Dash.
    :h:: Full launch, hits three times up close. Access to aerial normals on peak height, as well as Hurricane Dash. Entire arm on fire.

Quick Axe Kick: :qcb:+:l:

  • Quick overhead. Cannot start combos.

Heavy Axe Kick: :qcb:+:m:

  • Slower overhead, but stuns enough to start combos.
    Hold :m:: Fakes the Axe Kick.

Combat Roll: :qcb:+:h:

  • Special movement crosses up opponents.

Shoryu-Reppa: :qcf:+:atk::atk:

  • Essentially Akuma’s uppercut hyper, but with normal fire instead of purple fire.

Shinryuken: :qcb:+:atk::atk:

  • Vertical rising attack. Mash any :atk: button to increase damage.

Gurren Senpukyaku: :dp:+:atk::atk: (Lvl 3)

  • Forward moving attack that goes cinematic on hit. Ken delivers a series of burning hurricane kicks. Adds one more for good measure.

-lighter stages and more of a variety of stages as dlc. tired of this dark shit. put that okami stage in.
-i don’t think they’ll do it but if they could tweak the time to do inputs to make it more like mvc2 that’d be great.
-mentioned in another thread but ammy’s weapon switches going form d, d, Atk to Atk+S would be great
-custom music option for ps3
-spectator mode
-snapshot capability like tekken 6. i need some new wallpapers, lol.

thats about it, i guess. as far as character wishlist…
doc oc would be sick. hopefully he’d play like omega red in mvsf.
nightcrawler, strider, carnage, i’m open to batsu, etc.

dhalsim would be interesting but they won’t do it.

From Capcom
-Nemesis or a Tyrant. They need more tank characters on the Capcom side and I think either of these would tie in well.
-Strider
-Nobunaga or the other guy from Onimusha

Marvel
-Jugg
-Nightcrawler
-Doc OC
-Green Goblin

Nemesis and Tyrant will never happen, Capcom explained this. Onimusha characters often used real people’s likeness and using them would be more trouble than Capcom would like to go through (that’s why we got Soki instead of the face of the series in TvC). Strider is also owned by an outside source.

DLC costumes:

Hulk - Planet Hulk Gladiator
Wolverine - Snikt!
Zero - Zero.exe
Spencer - "Rad"
Spiderman - Noir Spiderman
Magneto - Magnus (no helmet)

^Capcom owns Strider…

Why would Ken’s axe kicks be QCB instead of just B+M/H ? … QCB should be his crazy kicks, imo.
