UMvC3 General Discussion: You can't control it

I <3 Firebrand and Ghostrider so much.

Oh snap, look who’s back on the scene. Where you been man? We need more OG posters to give thanks to BasedHiryu.

I know that feel bro…

Oh man, I think I’m in love with Frank West. He’s really damn fun to play as.

I’m also enjoying Zero now that his Color 6 goes so well with Felicia’s Color 1 and Dante’s Color 3. (Yes, color co-ordination does affect my play, for some reason…) Yet, I’m still probably going to be rocking Taskmaster for the foreseeable future, considering I need a good zone man and it might take me a while to get used to Hawkeye … and even longer to get used to Wright and Rocket, who I also want to play.

Even as much as I love Dante for being so damn fun, I might have to go with his more narrow-focused brother down the road.

Man, even with the majority of the new characters not really interesting me, enough older characters got buffs (even if they were buffs more to their style than substance) that it’s giving me an identity crisis on infinite earths when I’m at the character select screen. I’m even considering going back to my original team of Haggar/Arthur/Felicia. Shit, even with Morrigan’s horrible nerfs, I’m seeing that meter-gain might actually make her necessary if I want to pull off all those meter-hungry combos again.

the new characters are fun!

Hey everyone! I went into training mode to try all the new characters, they are so fun! Firebrand is gonna be MODOK tier, he is so hard to control and figure out, nemesis has some crazy stuff, and hawkeye can easy combo off throws :O! Also RR isnt that hard to combo with, but you have to press all the buttons like mega fast.

sad thing is that im suposed to be available to purchase the game today :frowning:

School son. I’m the Last of the BasedWorld.

But my mans is picking this up tmmw. apologize for being out of it but can Rocket Raccoon AHVB?

More general thoughts on the game:

The PS3 installation took forever, I was pretty salty about it.

The new UI is fucking terrible and I honestly don’t know what they possibly could have been thinking other than when they re-release Marvel 3 again, changing the UI will encourage people to buy the game.

Rocket Raccoon is very awkward, his movement and his combo chains, log trap isn’t that good either.

Nemesis is easy mode, but I can see him actually being viable down the road.

Skrull got surprisingly better, not way better, but, safe to say isn’t bottom 10 anymore. Stone Dunk is huge.

XF isn’t nearly as broken as it was, it’s shorter, and because of the damage scaling change in XF and other tweaks my 9 year old god-brother can’t CKC me anymore.

**Mashing is stupid, and I hate it, I’m a pad player, it’s not that hard to get to the max damage, but I feel like an idiot mashing, it’s unnecessary and it doesn’t bring about anymore hype. **

I know the feeling. :frowning: Although here, it’s Tekken 6 instead of SF4. Too bad I’m not a Tekken fan.

I’m going to bring Ultimate Marvel to the tourney on Friday. Even though none of the people there can play worth a damn, at least I’ll have fun playing Firebrand offline against real people.

Yeah the x-factor length looked long in videos, but it’s really noticeable how short it is when you’re actually playing. You can actually run away from someone with XF3 now and not feel like you’re on a 3 day long chase.

Mashing was fine when we were at the arcades.

And we weren’t paying for the buttons and sticks.

You know, it was somebody else’s problem.

Now, it’s our problem. Now when our buttons die, we’re the ones that have to pony up that cash. I mean, shit, I’m use a PS2-to-PS3/360 adapter (Thank you, eTokki!) to play with Nuby Tech SF Anniversary Controllers that aren’t even made anymore. I’ve already killed Ryu and Ken thanks to all the years I put into them (one of them actually died while playing MvC2 on the PS3, surprise surprise…), all I’ve got left is my Chun Li.

Personally, I think it’s all a conspiracy by MadCatz. They just wanna sell more controllers.

I was facing some dude just now running log trap assist and I was avoiding that junk all day, talk about overrated

And I think RR will end up like Joe pretty much. A few guys will pick him up and do interesting stuff but he’ll get mostly ignored because he’s mad awkward

He can in spirit :)! Dude doesnt need VB… he is fun as shit anyway.

What dummy settings should you use when trading UMvC3?

Thanks in advance!!!

Lol you gotta love that Shuma can kill anything with less than a million HP in 2 midscreen combos XD.
Damn if the lag weren’t so bad right now I would play some more online

He has no air gun hyper? Can he hit confirm into gun

Don’t think he’ll be Joe tier, I don’t think Capcom would have given him such low health if he didn’t have some serious threatening technology, but I have a feeling he will be the lesser of the characters below 800k.

Dat Week 1 Ammy effect already

Does it matter? His accent makes up for the lack of VB. Yeah he can hitconfirm into gun.

Kinda. Just wondering how he works
