there could be 6 in the game just put in the chars that everyone will use cause come tourny time like mvc2 there isnt gonna be that much variation … maybe 10chars of the 50 in mvc2 are used seriously.
It’s pretty obvious. I’d rather have 30 characters that are good and unique. Rather than 50+ where 5 characters are palette-swaps, and another dozen or so are pretty much garbage . Save the 100 character roster for MVC 4 or 5.
That may be true, but more characters = more stuff to explore = more longevity for the game. Yea competitive Marvel 2 was only 13 characters but it’s so deep…plus you have low tier league and Joo’s combo DVD where he makes characters do shit no one ever dreamed of. Yea they’re supposedly throwaway characters but although people don’t usually compete with them they are fun to explore and fuck around with when you’re bored. Are you honestly gonna tell me you’ve never had a 3 on 3 Dan battle?
Okay so let me get this straight MVC3 FTW is set to release by 3/2/2011 I expect them to push the game a couple months but another whole year after the teaser I doubt it. I know it will be a smart move by Capcom if they push the game near Christmas that would be a very smart move

As far as how many Characters should be in this game give me 60 sounds good thirty from each side sounds fair.
the more characters they add the less balanced the game is and as history has shown us, that is a good thing, let’s go 2012 release!!!
They can always do updates, sequels or whatever. Plus I don’t wanna be playing SF4 forever.
If they even had 20 characters that were as complex and thought out as Sent/Mag then this would be the best game ever.
Chill out mean man, just because many people don’t agree with you doesn’t mean the topic is stupid…lets look at some things:
-
They don’t have all 2011 to work on it…they announced it will be released Spring 2011, so they have probably just under a year to finish it. If you remember SSF4 final build was done about two months prior to the game’s release. So they’ll likely just have the first couple months of 2011 to finalize things, then begin prepping for launch.

We’re well aware Capcom has multiple staff working on this project, but in several interviews , including the first one posted on srk’s front page, Niitsuma said there WILL BE roughly 30 characters in the game. In the MTV interview linked in the OP he confirmed the game would have over 30, but more than SSF4?..he said “we’ll see”.
3)This topic is not about game mechanics, it’s strictly about characters. Even with its 13-15 tournament-usable characters MvC2 still outlasted many games. Imagine if it had at least the same, if not more tourney-worthy characters.
4)Seth Killian has repeatedly stated that time is an issue. Just read the MTV interview in the Original Post. Yes they want to put in as many characters as possible, but every time they are questioned on the issue they have to remind people that it takes time to put in characters because they are making them from scratch. So if your cool with MvC3 possibly coming out with a roster of 32 characters (nearly half of its predecessor) then vote No. Otherwise, vote yes, because Capcom has said there are no plans for dlc, so once the game comes out that’s it, done deal. Your stuck with whatever’s there.
That’s why I voted for them to do take their time, because I’d rather see them put in as many characters as THEY want to, than have time dictate how many characters we will see.
It doesnt really matter much. They will release when it is good and ready and we know there will be more than 30 characters.
can’t wait for new tron :pleased:
I LIKE THIS POST , READ IT CAPCOM!
i will wait with you people , capcom change release too end of 2011 early 2012!!!
“plus once the game comes out, it is OUT. No revisions, no turbo or championship editions with the VS series…so I would really rather see them do it right the first time, since it will be the last mvc game we’ll see for a loooong time to come”
I agree with AudioProject, I don’t want no bullshit sequels, remixes, turbo, Super nahh I want to receive my money’s worth not for no half ass game. Would rather let Capcom take their sweet time make the game as flawless as it can be. Which I believe late 2011 early 2012 the latest. Then if we happen to survive 2012 then maybe there will be a MVC4 in the next decade or so.
Thank you , & whats up with the “We all gonna die in 2012” business ? lol , jus because a calender ends doesnt mean nothin , jus make a new one , like they do at wal-mart. But on topic , yes i agree with you xAFBx.
I think this is “the” thread Capcom needs to pay attention too the most , if Capcom prides itself on listening to its fans then sorry too say , but , your waitin dawg , the majority of us would rather wait for more content on a game we’ve been waitng for for a long time , to make sure its as good as possible.
btw , would you rather have your hamburger rushed at mcdonalds & spatulawed to u on a napkin at the drive through , or (like us normal people) recieve it in a baggy , burger in-tact , just as “YOU” orderd.
I want you to compare this entire thread to the notion i jus made , and dont get mad , for the love of jesus christ…jus put no in the vote box & be on your way , & hope theres more people like yourself out there , although i highly doubt it…
i dont want to wait another year for a game that everyones gonna bitch about when it comes out anyways. im hyped, i want this game yesterday
I will bust a nut if they put my girl back in.
i did say “fans” didnt i srk ?
yea ok , jus checkin wit ya’ll:coffee:
oh well , all i know is that they are mostly gonna go by their fans request (again) if people make threads like this on forums everywhere (including marvel.com) then i dunno we might be waiting , but enough of that , i already put yes in the box , all we people who want it later gotta do is hope & pray , nothin more or less , jus gotta hope Capcom sees us on the forums over the internet.
you just know that whatever they do with this game, bitching will be had…i cant be bothered to search for the thread, but someone a couple pages back said something like if theres no triangle jumping, unfly/refly, infinites etc, this wont be marvel. and seeing all the quotes from the devs saying the changes hey are thinking of making, its obvious things are going to be different. so im sure come spring of 2011, we will be reading alot of “this game sucks because insert mvc2 mechanic here isnt in mvc3” so i say, character count shmaracter count, lets get the complaining over as soon as possible. in a couple years it will all be irrelevant anyways when mvc4 is announced and people will want the same mechanics from 3. change is always resisted, i want to play this game before worrying about it
How on Earth will Justin Wong, Sanford Kelly, and Yipes win without triangle jumps???
i dont necessarily hope they take it out, i mean if they leave it in fine, just dont have it be such an important part of play. when i think of marvel anyways i dont think of infinites or triangle jumps or unfly, i think of 11 hit air combos and tag outs and lightning fast back and forth. i dont necessarily think of the tournament style of play. while i do like watching the tourney style (this last year’s evo final match in mvc2 was fascinating) knowing that its pretty much a fight taking advantage of glitches and accidents with certain characters works for mvc2 as it is. a new game made FROM THE START to be broken like that wouldnt be a good idea, IMO. mvc2 was a happy accident lightning in the bottle and id like it to stay that way. when you try to recapture magic too hard you end up failing
those guys are so good theyll dominate in whatever game they play. didnt justin wong play tvc too? i remember reading something on his blog where he said he would put up some tvc videos.
Also it’s foolish to think that the presence of fly/unfly, tri jumps, and infinites in a game being made from the ground up will somehow make most of the cast useless. There were a lot of useless characters in mvc2 since the cast was ported from a lot of different games. Some made better transitions than others. The presence of those mechanics will not make for 25 useless characters by definition. Cable has no infinites, no flight, no air dash, and he’s still the fourth best character in the game.
