Hey guys. I’m at SDCC right now and I’ve played quite a bit of UMvC3 so far. Here’s some minor stuff I’ve discovered.
Ghost Rider motorcycle super does not OTG but does fly upwards if jumped.
Ryu’s new super is :d:, :d:, :atk::atk:. It gives a speed and power boost, and changes the properties of his other supers.
Hawkeye’s :qcb: :atk: move makes him either jump back, roll forward (through opponent if close), or jump over in a flipping arc. Pressing :atk: again depending on the strength will fire a different arrow (I only used :l: because poison arrow was so good.)
Firebrand can cancel his divekick into flight by hitting any button. His :qcf::atk::atk: super hits OTG. His flight mode is insane. Very weird character to use but very unique and strong.
I will not be playing this game if there’s a next Wolverine. Somebody being as easy to be good with as Wolverine is what was wrong with the last game. If they’re as good as Dante or Viper that makes more sense. No more ABC win characters plz.
But the issue he is referring to is the fact that people act like they have already played and completely figured out the game. Its one thing to be like, “I know its early and subject to change but at the moment ryu looks like he might be broken,” its another thing to be like “screw capcom always riding ryus dick and making him top tier in another fighting game”. If you get where Im coming from.
Yep dudes were like he was bullshit since he could get 50 percent off a full screen command grab. I swear I hope the average age on srk is like 12 or something because at least then these people would have an excuse.
@Mr. X: lol I remember that, everyone was up in arms bout how broken it looked, and now I’ve completelt forgotten she is even in the game since barely anyone uses her anymore.
@Chindogg: Thanks for the feedback, good to hear firebrand and hawkeye are looking good so far. You wouldn’t happen to know how many arrows hawkeye has? I’ve seen about 6 or so in the videos.
Considering all of the other crazy assists in this game I wonder how Chun Li ended up being the one that people went WTF about. Even during the CES stuff I never saw anything out of Chun Li that made me go like “oh wow yeah she gonna be good”. Then when I first picked up the game and played her due to her being on Buk’s team I was like “well um…this character has cool combos but can’t get in for shit…nice”. Glad I dropper her. Hope she gets some actual good shit other than legs mash.
Until the game is released we wont know if Wolvie is still tops or not. I know this much if he is still a contender I dont see people just dropping him. He is entirely too damn easy to play. But upon speculation and what they are trying to do from what I see is make zoning prominent again. As in I mean not to let rushdown dominate so horrifyingly. LOL @ not being able to get Wolverine out your defense.
people thought marvel was gonna be balanced cause you know “THEY HAD 10 YEARS TO GET IT RIGHT” so when people saw chun and her derp kicks. ppl flipped and start calling the game broken. like no shit they told you before hand it was broken why are you mad? plus take into account that it was people new to marvel coming from street fighter they wasn’t prepared for what they seen lol.
i was one of those ppl that tried to main chun on point cause of what i seen. come to find out i can’t get in with her and derp kick was her only good special. its funny how people judge without having experience it yet lol.
you know everyone said the same thing when ae first got its playtest in japan…and we were like come on guys their going to change it and then nothing happened…
Nope. It was mentioned before that Ryu’s eyes simply glow blue. Pretty good that he got the transformation, though. It might be a good tool to DHC and GTFO w/.
This. The game isn’t even finished. Remember this stuff?
MODOK and Skrull are obviously top tier potential.
Sentinel is GOD tier.
Phoenix is Roll tier.
Hsien-Ko’s gong is broken, it’s going to be a standard assist on teams.
Hell, Floe went from saying UMvC3 Strider sucks to is a great character in a matter of minutes.
I totally loved the “Phoenix has no health so she’s gonna be bad” stuff. The only way to make a 400k health character viable is to make them retarded. That’s why I hope she’s still strong enough to be viable in Ultimate because a few too many changes and she could literally be the Roll tier that people thought she might be.
Lol, yeah. But honestly, in people’s defense, if XF wasn’t broken (which no one expected it to be), no one would play her. I think people also assumed snapbacks would be longer.
Also… really salty that they didn’t put an off/on XF switch when obviously the community wanted it, they needed to do something drastic to it, and it seems that they did almost nothing to it.
