This could be taken many different ways lol.

Funny that you guys took it as a cyclops thing, when I took it as a wolverine leaving thing, aka no xmen.

Really hope Rogue makes it in. I've given up on seeing her in an MVC game, but maybe the Marvel Gods will grant me this one character.
 
what if that image that says " almost celebrating 20 years" means since the first Marvel vs Capcom and not the VS series. Since MVC came out in 1998.
 
Ultron / Starts off Mark 1

M...mark 1?

You mean the steel cucumber on wheels? But... how would it fight? D:

What was that about? I don't remember all the details and dates. If I'm not wrong it was about the deal to use some characters for the games.

If anyone could sum it up, I would appreciate it.
Long story short, after Contest of Champions came out, Marvel prohibited future developers from using X-Men & Fantastic Four characters. The Maximoff Twins were also subject to this supposed ban, with the exception of Lego Avengers. Now there's rumors of Marvel easing up on said restrictions sometime next year, but the concern on my end is that this change-of-heart may have been too late for MvC4 (if it's indeed happening).

Basically, since at the latest mid-2014, any video game developer who has developed for Marvel has not included any characters from X-Men or Fantastic Four affiliated IPs.

Games that have made license contracts before then have these characters, and the last one to have been released at that point was Contest of Champions.
Games that were released since then, such as Lego Avengers and Future Fight, have a notable absence of any of those characters. One of those games' developers even has come forward and mentioned that Marvel is not allowing them to use these properties (I think in that specific case they were talking about The Thing from the F4).
There also was the Disney in-house games that were shut down earlier this year - Avengers Alliance 1 ceased any X-Men/F4 content since mid-2014, Avengers Alliance 2 didn't even have any.

Thank you! I wasn't sure exactly what games suffer from this ban.
If MVC4 happens and the restriction affects it,maybe DLC could help in some way.
 
Oh dear, the return of the cryptic tweets.. What a ride that was!

God I wanted Cyclops so badly in MvC3. Don't do this to me.
If we were to take that as an MvC4 teaser, it means one of two things.
  • Cyclops is in MvC4
  • Wolverine's leaving because there's no X-Men in MvC4

they are, but at least we have each other to hold on to



you know, i always did kinda think that if mvc4 ever happened, marvel would at the very least be conscious enough of the game's culture to not completely do away with the xmen
I'm not sure if Marvel Entertainment gave a fuck about legacy with the ban active. Even if Marvel Games cared, Perlmutter has the final call.

I wonder if they actually "broke" the ban in silence for Marvel 4 but kept it elsewhere to keep free Fox popularity to a minum

Is it weird my first thought was "Wolverine confirmed"?

I kind of took it as "I go where I wanna go... to the MvC4 roster!"

At any rate I almost get the impression he's just teasing us the same way a lot of FGC figures have been the last few days. I remember his Ultimate tweets being a lot more cryptic and unimportant than his comprehensive leaks for vanilla Marvel 3 and SFxT, and I'm being reminded of those right now.

Yep, we'll wait together to see what happens.
And I hope you are right and Marvel doesn't forget about the X-Men's influence all over the years

Yep, what a ride that was!! I made an account in Shoryuken just to try and help to decipher those tweets lol

I came back from a decade of not posting on SRK for it.
 
Jane Foster as Thor would cause the most ruckus.

You say this like Thor was a popular character in MvC3/UMvC3.

There will only be ruckus if you alternate/genderbend the gods of Mahvel, or the veterans like Spidey and Wolverine. We're gonna have soiled diapers if Logan and Peter are replaced by X-23 or Gwen or even Miles.

I think most people would welcome She Thor tbh if it means a faster, more agile Thor.
