I just hope they fix this before it comes out. I’m fine with her only having one action in the air but just dropping? There is like no point of playing pheonix then cause you will drop faster than the homing bomb and ur left defenseless for whatever. i dont main her but golly what is up with this.
Didn’t they cut XF time also? I heard something like a 70% cut.
With a shorter XF and a weaker air game Phoenix doesn’t need more nerfs. Especially that health shit – do they /want/ her to just get chipped out? That’s that cheap shit, man.
I want her to be a real character. Dark Phoenix can totally still be reigned in, but they have to rework her. I have hope though, she is my favorite comic book character of all time. And is my favorite comic story arcs, I just want her viable. Not broken, just a little damn direction on her. X-Factor was the biggest problem, I would love to see her as is in the game now, with the fixed X-Factor to see how much that riegns her in. THEN work from there on fixing her
air X factor says hi. Phoenix is/was cheap anyways.

However…

If you look at dark phoenix without X-Factor she is not god tier (though probably very close to god tier). IT is most definitely when X-Factor is involved that she gets out of hand.
-
having 2 air options makes alot more sense and does reign in her aerial keep away. I can live with that
-
X-Factor healing her health seemed odd, when she has a hyper that does that exact thing. Forcing players to manage bars once she is out, and having to pay attention to her health should always play a part. High Risk High Reward.

Really it comes down to X-Factor, it catapulted S Tier characters to god tier
Chris Flamethrower. Forever and ever and ever. :badboy:
I’ve been hearing a ton of different stuff about the new X-Factor in UM, a lot of contradicting info as well.** What exactly do we know about the new XF?** How much shorter is it in each level? Are the XF infinites still possible? How much is the damage output reduced? Does it heal slower?
captain selection screen is the best lol
It just seems like they don’t want fix DP (even though XF nerf does in fact nerf DP in general). They want her to stay as Queen of the game. With TAC taking meter and the Phoenix nerfs, it’s just making her from high risk…to more about Insane risk-level now, to the point you really gotta question: “Is she even worth it, to get to DP?” That kind of mentality capcom is throughing at us I guess. She’s still got some insane tools, no doubt…but since DP is the most feared character in the game…they almost want to make Phoenix now as the least fearful character in response.
The thing with dominant characters at the begining of a game’s life cycle, is that they rarely stay there for long.
Someone will crack open DP, and things wont ever be the same
all they need to do is remove the jab feather no more 20hit confirmation. FIX
I thought that too, a easy fix. Stagger the :l: feathers, maybe once every 3rd or 4th :l:. c.:l: lockdown is too easy especially in x-Factor
Have we gotten any news on changes for Super Skrull, other than air Meteor Smash and stagger after Level 3?
Somebody said Wesker can throw his glasses away, but I didn’t see it. (I don’t play Wesker, so know nothing about this.)
Yeah, people had some problems with Tron’s face. Check that out: it’s pretty creeptastic.
oh my…
Fan service on the character select screen, lol. I like the current one, love that to be updated personally
Re: Tron’s face: It’s that same ‘ooh-ho-ho’ bitch laugh that Karin always does.
I’m OK with it, I don’t see what everyone else is seeing.
I actually like the new character select screen its much more related to the source material.
When Wesker takes damage he loses his sunglasses. Gamespot said he’d get a speed increase when they fell off, I didn’t hear about him throwing them?
Wesker loses his glasses after doing Maximum Wesker in MvC3.
