UMvC3 DLC Poll Results Discussion [aka Wishlist Thread]

Hell, I’d be more inclined to say Gambit and Psylocke further throw that into doubt. They make no sense from a Marvel business standpoint, given Marvel’s roster choices have basically been of the “we’re building our brand image and advertising upcoming/just-released product lines” variety. I can honestly say I don’t understand why anyone would want Cammy in, however. X-23 and Jill cover most of what she would offer already. If “hot blonde with twintail hair in a combat-swimsuit” is what you’re after, I can dig up some images of Fate from Nanoha StrikerS for you to look at or something. Wouldn’t take but a minute.

I’m just glad Ken’s not in that image, or I’d be doing Ghost Rider’s level 3 to people in real life while screaming “WHY DO WE NEED A THIRD SHOTO!?” Edit: And it might not even be people who wanted Ken in. Or even people who know what a MvC3 is. I’d just go up to random people on the street, my eyes ablaze with judgmental anger.

Joking/Troll response: Also the lack of Nina means this would prompt a mass protest at their NYCC booth, where BoF fans would civilly, politely, and non-disruptively voice their displeasure and ask Capcom if they will reconsider, emphasizing that they would gladly pay for a DLC copy of her. Unfortunately, this act runs contrary to the very essence of gamer/publisher relations… so it’d be like a matter/anti-matter reaction that would destroy the entire NYCC site. Capcom is not stupid; they have included Nina in the roster (but not announced her yet) to avoid this very thing.

If Capcom intends to give DLC support to UMVC3, an average DLC pack would likely be:
[LIST]
[]Cards (We’ll see how relevant they are before I get into numbers)
[
]A new stage or two?
[]and 4 characters
[/LIST]
Mmmm… characters. I can see the pack themes now…
[LIST]
[
]MVC2/Classics (Megaman would go here)
[]X-men vs. Street Fighter (Gambit, Psylocke, and Bison?)
[
]Creatures of the Night (Darkstalkers, Blackheart, and Blade)
[/LIST]
Any other ideas?

Now that I flesh it out in my mind, the packs could be:

Spoiler

X-Men vs Street Fighter
** Characters: **Juggernaut and either Cyclops or Professor X (PLEASE) VS Bison and Urien
We already know what Juggernaut would do, but they could retool Cyclops or even, god forbid, put in the REAL leader of the X-Men!
This game needs more evil geniuses on the Capcom side, and I think Bison could work. Plus, Urien could parry normally (he is a 3rd Strike rep) and would be unique.
**Stage: **The X-Mansion

Creatures of the Night
** Characters: **Blade and Blackheart/Mephisto **VS **BB Hood/Donovan and Anakaris/Jon Talbain
Blade is a requirement for this. Blackheart and Mephisto could be interchangeable.
First of, I am of the opinion that any of the Darkstalkers mentioned above could make up for the disaster that was Hisen-Ko. The only one I see possibly being not unique would be BB Hood.
**Stage: **Any of the good Darkstalkers stages would suffice.

Classic/Rerun
** Characters: **Gambit and Psylocke **VS **Captain Commando and Jin Satome
Do I need to explain these guys?
**Stage: **Any Marvel 2 stage, especially the river stage or the airship

** New Generation of Heroes**
** Characters: **Ms.Marvel and Doc Ock VS Gene/Asura and Vanessa (P.N.03 I belive?)
Ms.Marvel would be another fundamental, simple character, with Doc finally giving us a Spidey villan. (plus, Nemesis/Doc/Shuma=TENTACLES!)
Gene should be already explained if you’ve been following this thread, Asura would (likely) be similar, and Vanessa would be built on dodges and beams. (AKA Mags+Wesker)
**Stage: **A new, non-reused stage (Okami or Dead Rising stage, pretty please)

BLUE PACK (TR0LL)
**CHARACTERZ; **CABLE VENOM THANOZ AND MEGAMANZ
STAGEZ; BLUE DANGER ROOM LOOL!!!11!:looney:

Sorry if TL;DR.

I still think its stupid that Capcom and Marvel want to promote “relevant” series. I thought this game was for the fans, and since Marvel vs Capcom has always been a dream match their logic to do such a thing never made much sense.

When was the last time Chun Li was relevant?

i like this

I honestly don’t see them making many if any DLC characters for this title.

I really am expecting Uncanny Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 sometime within the next 1 1/2 - 2 years.

Which I am completely okay with.

If there is any DLC characters for UMvC3. It should be a female character.

Isn’t Maya the only female character out of the 12 new cast? and she’s just part of phoenix wright’s moveset.
Sausage Fest, Seriously.

someone on gamespot put up a good idea for dlc characters so everyone is happy due to the polls… some new and some old so no one cries… it doesnt have everyoneid hope for but its a fair idea…
Clash of Super Heroes pack
Mega Man
Captain Commando
Gambit
Venom

New Age of Heroes pack
Cable
Hayato
BB Hood
Thanos

Ultimate Alliance pack
Ms. Marvel
Blade
Bullseye
Ultron

Fighting Jam pack
Alex
Karin
Jedah
Batsu

what do you guys think? and has anyone tried to contact capcom about the fans funding development for characters they want and anyone who did not contribute will have to pay for them as dlc. someone brought this idea up and i for one would be willing to help pay to get characters i want in this game.

**My **opinions on the likelyhood of these characters:

[details=Spoiler]
Clash of Super Heroes pack
Mega Man- Capcom, you know we want him…
Captain Commando- I’m all right with this.
Gambit- Too retro, but I believe one of the MM bosses used a staff and cards…
Venom- Marvel would never go for this.

New Age of Heroes pack
Cable- Isn’t he coming back from the dead or something?
Hayato- Who?
BB Hood- This is the only thing that makes me salty 'bout dat racoon.
Thanos- I’m all right with this.

Ultimate Alliance pack
Ms. Marvel- Seems like it would work.
Blade- Like the character , but what would he offer? (Shit, he kinda dresses like Wesker…)
Bullseye- Daredevil or Elektra first.
Ultron- I’m all right with this.

Fighting Jam pack
Alex- We do have Haggar, but I see where you’re coming from.
Karin- Guile, Bison, Urien, Gill, Charlie… basically 3/4 of the Street Fighters say hi.
Jedah- WTF Capcom, add him already!
Batsu- I’m all right with this.

[spoiler/]

Good ideas, especially the development funding idea.

Im alright with this

Wheres the votes for Thanos? Mephisto??

SRK SMH

I see what you’re getting at, but I don’t know about that labeling. They should just introduce the characters as is and disassociate the connections of past games. After all this game is it’s own entity, and the mention of Ultimate Alliance makes me whince. It’s an ok game, but nowhere near as polished as UMvC3.

However, for purpose of indulging into that idea, how about

Reploid Pack:

  • Protoman
  • Megaman X
  • Sigma
  • Flashman
  • Gemini Man

8 characters, my opinion on who is viable/who I want:

Marvel
Thanos- They seem to be hyping up the outer space part of the Marvel universe. What better choice than the greatest galactic Marvel character himself? Plus hes a VS series vet. Him not being in this game is sorta like Doom not being in this game.

Elektra- Her stage is here and shes not. Plus shes a female which Marvel needs more of. I kind of figure this one as a no brainer.

Cable- I hear hes getting a revive, plus I think he would be even better in this game, appealing to Capcom’s notion of making zoning more viable/MvC2 heads wanting their classic MvC2 characters.

Blade- Fun Fact: Look at all the Vanilla MvC3 endings. At least half of the 12 new fighters were in those endings. Blade’s inclusion in Jill’s + everyone loves swords n guns+ hes black make it a smart choice for Marvel to put him in the game. Seriously, its him or Blackheart(lol jk) for an African-American inclusion.

Capcom
Jedah- I think hes probably the most requested male Darkstalker, and personally one of my favorite Capcom characters of all time. Plus hes got an amazing moveset thats made for this kind of game. However, if Capcom REALLY couldnt make him work like they say, Donovan, Lord Raptor, or Talbain could suffice. Preferably Raptor. Capcom needs more villains. Which brings me to my next pick…

Sigma/Dr.Wily/Bass/Random Robot Master (MetalMan/AirMan/ShadowMan/TenguMan etc.)- A Megaman villain. Yeah, everyone wants Megaman, but really I think the series just needs another rep, which doesnt have to be the hero himself. Wily would probably be the most unique, possibly employing many robots/robot masters. Bass could have his fusion with Treble as his Hypers/Devil Trigger type mode. Sigma has a huge movelist to choose from. A Robot Master would take a lot of thought and originality, but would be a pretty cool pick imo.

Red Earth Character (Tessa/Blade/Hauzer) - A “random” pick perhaps, but one that could pay off for Capcom. Theres a lot of Red Earth love in this game, and fighters are on the rise. If the character they chose was popular in game, it could help to make a Red Earth 2. I think Tessa would be the best choice, as shes been in corssover games before, but Hauzer or Blade could be interesting, being villains.

Monster Hunter Character- This game is fuckin HUGE in Japan. And MvC3 isn’t selling so well there. But I can assure you that so many ppl in Japan would pick it up just knowing they could be a Monster Hunter character. Someone who employs lots of armors/weapons/skills, or even a high ranking monster, like a Rathalos, would be interesting.

This isn’t just my personal list. If I could just choose 8 characters it’d look different. I chose who I feel is smart for Capcom/Marvel to include, who would be interesting, and who would help make the game more diverse.

After thinking about it for a while, I still think Tessa would be a good addition to the game but only if they gave her better mobility. Airdash or something. Strange has a little trouble moving around because of his lack of an airdash, though he does have teleports. Mobility, especially air mobility, is key in this game to being good.

7 girls and Cable.

Amirite?

I will never stop advocating for Jedah.
Besides that, sure. Psylocke/Elektra/Ms.Marvel/Cable and Linn Kurosawa/Saki/Tessa/Jedah for Marvel and Capcom BAMFs and their harem.

Honestly, I think the three characters I want most are Jedah, Urien, and PTX-40A. Jedah’s moveset fits right in, Urien could have some (literally) off the wall Aegis Reflector combos, and the robot could be a unique and enjoyable addition because his playstyle would feel both unique and familiar in this series.

Also, anyone from Breath of Fire, Red Earth, Monster Hunter, or Rival Schools. I never played those games, but they could bring some variety into the roster, no?

I’d love to see Claire Redfield, personally, though she obviously won’t be making it in what with four RE characters already in UMvC3 and her second-tier status within the series at the moment, plus Frank already has the zombies angle covered.

Megaman.EXE would also be quite cool, though a lack of Megaman wouldn’t really bother me at all. Still, I hope some form of Megaman gets in for the sake of all his fans who currently will have to resort to a Zero alt to “play” him.

Given how hard Capcom has been trolling re: Megaman recently, though, if we get a Megaman DLC character it’ll probably be Bubble Man or Wood Man.

Blah. Claire Redfield would be a boring mesh of mvc2 Jill, mvc3 Jill, Chris and Frank West. I love RE but let’s be honest Claire doesn’t deserve a slot.

Jedah would be another “trap” character, no? I’m thinking good mobility, long range normals and good keepaway?

Honestly we are getting Darkstalkers 4 eventually so I’m not pressed anymore. Donovan and Jedah would be nice tho.

And I’m so tired of megaman characters. They really aren’t that awesome minus Sigma.

Red Earth, Monster Hunter and Powerstone need representation.

Yeah, I don’t know that there’s necessarily a place for Claire either. I’d suggest a Jill skin or something but that would make absolutely no sense whatsoever given Jill’s moveset, although it might be rather amusing to watch Claire suddenly turn into a martial arts juggernaut.

Anyways, yeah, there’s literally 0% chance we’re seeing anything Claire related, just feel the need to support her anyways.
