[JB-the-Hunter]

I'm ok with X-Men sitting out. Gives Marvel's other characters a chance to borrow from their playstyles.

 

[The Light]

If it is happening I don't buy no X-Men. No way in hell they would exclude wolverine.

 

[HK-47]

This seems like it's entirely speculation.

Yes it does.

 

[Guymelef]

Polygon mentions platforms?

Gaf dudes who know claiming PS4/PC still?

Did somebody say PS4/PC only? "official" rumor thread is hard to follow.

 

[Dyson Industries]

Fuck me directly in my left nostril.

My nipples are fucking quivering.

...ehhhhhhhh

 

[ViewtifulJC]

remember how this franchise began and now there are no X-Men like wtfffffff

 

[Chie Satonaka]

They will be exclusive to the mobile version.

why do you do this to me.

 

[fhqwhgads]

MCU focus means no M.O.D.O.K, so that sucks. I wonder if Capcom will still beg for Shuma to be in.

 

[bigboss370]

no x-men? fuck off.

 

[robotrock]

I never expected to see another one of these games. Cool.

Expecting it to be way less insane than the other ones.

 

[GuitarAtomik]

Kind of totally expected that roster situation, but it's going to be real weird if true. On the bright side, that's going to clear up a lot of space for new characters which is cool. Still, I have a hard time believing a couple X-Men won't make the cut (ie Wolverine, Deadpool, maybe Magneto).

 

[Inuhanyou]

remember how this franchise began and now there are no X-Men like wtfffffff

They should probably not call it Marvel Vs Capcom 4 and put in a subtitle at this point

Hopefully the designs on the good side will be anime styled again and have the Marvel characters in casual wear

 

[Master Thespian]

Fans of the series should expect Marvel vs. Capcom 4's roster of Marvel characters to draw strongly from the cinematic universe that Marvel Studios has popularized — and has full control over — during the past decade. That means fighting game fans will more likely see characters plucked from The Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy films, and not from properties like the X-Men. Expect to see superheroes like Ant-Man and Groot make appearances, with characters of mutant origin — think Wolverine and Magneto — sitting out this entry.

lol

 

[guek]

I hated playing against Phoenix, Sentinel, and Magneto but Wolverine has always been one of my staples so I dunno about this...

 

[RPGamer92]

This also makes me even more thankful that Spiderman finally joined the MCU.

 

[Toni]

Fuck me directly in my left nostril.

My nipples are fucking quivering.

Im dead 😂😂😂

The hype is real 😭

 

[Eolz]

Thanks to the mods for changing the title.
Huge shame if it's MCU-focused, but sadly expected.

 

[GravityInsanity]

WOOOOO Iron Man SQUAD.

Edit: No X-men...

 

[Skab]

The no X-men is not unexpected, and it also means no Fox characters in general. So no Doom, which bums me out more than anything else.

However, as others like Neoxon has mentioned many times, it doesn't rule them out for dlc stuff down the road.

 

[Spinky]

Say goodbye to Hidden Missiles.

 

[xaosslug]

'we've been told'

so, they seen that big ol' GAF thread? >__>

 

[NoctisVsStar]

Rip deadpool

 

[Riposte]

MCU, huh? I guess that means Thor will still be a man and whatnot.

 

[Chase17]

Nice.

I'm not all that attached to the x men so if they aren't in the game I don't mind to much

Spoiler

Phoenix Wright or riot /s

 

[ForkNetwork]

They cant... they cant remove Wolverine, can they?

 

[Xamtheking]

lol

Hes been planning for that possibility already

 

[phaonaut]

There is some news about Marvel 3 in there too!!!

Port or patch????

Definitely port, money to make and why patch a game that few people still have the console.

mvc3 port in Fall 2017 / mvc4 in Spring 2018

 

[TheSeks]

X-Men gone

What is the fucking point then? Just call it Marvel Cinematic Universe vs Poorhouse at this point.

 

[Hot Coldman]

remember how this franchise began and now there are no X-Men like wtfffffff

Remember how the X-Men basically got Marvel through the 90s? Times change. It's weird and I don't support it entirely but I'm willing to put up with change in the name of Marvel.

 

[PSqueak]

Yo daaamn

I hope no XMen isn't true though. Magneto is mandatory. And I still love Wolverine, plus he has a movie coming out.

AND GIVE ME KEN

You see, the bolded is the problem.

Remember how the X-Men basically got Marvel through the 90s? Times change. It's weird and I don't support it entirely but I'm willing to put up with change in the name of Marvel.

Actually, the current situation and problem is a direct repercussion of the x-men saving marvel in the 90's, that's the decade when the first x-men movie began developing/filming in the tail end, Fox had the foresight to hold on to the rights and that's what has caused this whole mess in the first place.

 

[SolarPowered]

Oh man

This is gonna go over like a lead ballon with fans if Marvel seriously thinks they can replace X-men in this game with Inhumans lol.

 

[Regulus Tera]

We know which side won now

 

[vinnygambini]

Um why would the X-Men not be included in this?

They were in Marvel: Ultimate Alliance.

 

[Codeblue]

Give me OG Dante and I'll be ok.

 

[Hero_of_the_Day]

No X-Men sucks, and really not sure about seeing The Guardians in a fighting game. But, I'm certainly intrigued still.

 

[Zeyphersan]

Any platforms mentions?? I do NOT want to buy a PS4 for this but if I have to I will

 

[Bronetta]

*bounce*

*bounce*bounce*

That man know







That man know

 

[Alrus]

No X-men at all would be disappointing.

 

[Tavernacle12]

I can live with no X-Men if Marvel's roster isn't just MCU guys. I want Ms. Marvel and Squirrel Girl.

 

[Gleethor]

So this means no Doom either.

Maybe Marvel should sell off their characters that they have no intention of using if they're so salty about the film rights situation.

 

[Wallach]

fuck an x-man if it means we get to play as some real OG marvel dudes like kang

 

[Bishop89]

No wolverine, Magneto, Cyclops? The FUCK?

 

[pizzacat]

MCU focused just seems more like an ad for their ass movies than usual

Magneto or nothing fam

 

[HK-47]

MCU focus means no M.O.D.O.K, so that sucks. I wonder if Capcom will still beg for Shuma to be in.

If Shuma is planned to be a villian in a Strange sequel I could see it easily happened.

 

[Stabby McSter]

Definitely port, money to make and why patch a game that few people still have the console.

mvc3 port in Fall 2017 / mvc4 in Spring 2018

ultimate-ier marvel vs capcom 3, with the illusive balance patch

 

[Nirolak]

If you have a pretty limited selection for launch, I think it makes sense to focus on their more important characters.

This seems like it's entirely speculation.

This is how rumor reports are normally written. The source tells them "No X-Men, more MCU characters." and then they say that you're more likely to see MCU characters than X-Men, but they leave the door open since they don't know how many characters that are neither are appearing.

 

[Interficium]

Me looking for Polygon's sources that aren't neogaf

 

[PMS341]

Marvel is killing off the X-Men, so it doesn't surprise me to see them go... despite it still being sad. Kind of like Capcom taking Mega Man off the roster once they killed him, too.

Spoiler

lol

Can't say I'll miss Sentinel personally.

 

[KingBroly]

They're going to have to have Wolverine
