Video Game General 6.5: Now with more surprise mechanics

He’s been practicing Dhalsim for a little while now. I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if he brings that team to Evo.

I’m really hype to watch that tournament. One reason being we’ll get to see some of the best players playing on the main stage in 2020, but also because there will more than likely be SOME kind of Marvel announcement after it happens. Evo is more of a marketing exhibit than it is an FGC thing now, so they wouldn’t just throw MVC2 up there for nothing. It seems painfully obvious to me that they’re trying to build up to something.

Im not gettin my hopes up for a new Marvel, and even.if its announced, between whatshisname leaving Capcom & Disney meddling, it may bomb worse than Infinite

With their fighting game division taking a blow recently I don’t really look forward to a Marvel 4 either. But maybe they can surprise us.

I honestly would be more excited for a Marvel 2 re-release, and I think that’s a lot more likely to happen too.

Just don’t fuck up the aspect ratio making guard breaks harder to do like they did with the 360/PS3 release and I’m golden.

Side note:

I don’t know who this Destiny FOMO chick is that keeps showing up in my youtube feed but she is reeeeeeeeeally trying to get me to click on her vids…if you know who I’m talking about then you’ll get what I mean.

I don’t want a new FG from Capcom if it’s just another low effort, low budget release like SFV and Infinite were.

A new FG that gets an actual budget and a decent amount of development time like REmake 2 and DMCV? Sure, I’d take that.

A MvC2 release on modern consoles would be dope. A remixed, more balanced version would be a cool extra mode to have in addition to the original

The aspect ratio can be changed in settings and it completely resolves that issue.

But yeah, if they can even just make a port as solid as the PS360 versions, I’ll take it. It would be cool to see an extra mode that attempts to actually balance the cast. But it’s hella important that they make that an option and not the default.

If they do indeed try to go ahead with a Marvel 4…

*Give me fucking X Men back
*Give me rollback
*Give me a consistent and well realized artstyle

If they can at least nail these three things, I’m willing to see how the game actually plays from there. A big thing that killed MVCI for me before it even dropped was that roster. I could not get excited for anyone besides Venom, and that was a good amount of time AFTER release.

Yup. The roster was a Disney dictated MCU Marketing ad instead of a celebration of the diversity in the marvel universe and it 1000000000% showed.

Wish it had cross saves and cross play. The trailer is GORGEOUS!

The framerate was fine. 60 is always preferable but the game plays fine, and the framerate is far from a mess.

Just hope PC players don’t sleep on it like Switch owners did.

Play Asia and all the other sites are sold out of PSN cards. Everybody is trying to import Granblue today, I guess. There’s not even any word on when the game will drop on the Chinese/Japanese PlayStation store. Smh.

Such a dumb, segmented way to release your game. All over some dumb voice work you can patch in after the fact. big sigh

If anyone has any luck importing, lemme know.
