Gameplay looks good to me. Lighting and the faces need work, and the stages and UI are a bit bland, but hopefully those will be fixed in time.

true but if it's like SF there will be better deals available by waiting. like SFV right now on PSN for $40 for game, season pass 1, and season pass 2.
This was my favorite part in the gameplay video:
Cube traps for dayz.
I can see someone getting cube trapped and blocking all the mixups being HYPE AS FUCK
There will still be situations where I will have to use LP for Vulcan though, but I guess is not that big of a deal.
Gameplay looks solid enough, but there's something off about the way characters get hit. Like they're punching a piece of aluminum foil. Super cut-ins also look really rough and the art style really does look cheap.
Once I see more information on the controls I can come to a better judgment.

Yeah no way I'm getting it day 1 like I did with SFV, learned my lesson good there.
That's why it looks so bad then.
The polished audiovisual artistry that defined the MvC series is completely gone here, no surprise really with Capcom steering the wheel.
Japan. Norio Hirose directing, who worked on XMvSF, MSHvSF, and MvC1 as a programmer.
Has an american producer though.
Looks like it has both. There are active moves that your team can use at any time, and then a "mode" that requires the meter to activate.
Example: Space gem lets you push and pull enemies without bar, and activating with meter traps them in a box, as seen in the gif up above.
Also bonus points to them for have the Space gem literally control "space," as in screen space.

I hope everyone appreciated that Hulk gets a ground bounce off of his normal command grab, and Thor's grab super still isn't comboable at all.
Some things never change.
Some things never change.
Some other observations:
Probably noted already but Hulk's air S causes groundbounce. Based on this very minimal footage, seems like they're really gonna give characters more opportunities to self-OTG given the tag system. I'm okay with this given some characters were given the shit end of the stick with this in MvC3 and I think Skullgirls does it well (though it looks significantly less goofy than it does in Skullgirls).
Ultron's tridash doesn't seem very fast, but his boxdash looks great. Also, characters auto-switch directions when you're in the air jumping over someone. There's a word for this that I forget ATM. Boxdash combined with his repulsar bot he can call in looks like some dirty stuff at low level (essentially just beam assist cross-ups, but what works works).
On that note.. Ultron.. actually looks a lot like Nova's moveset, anyone else seeing this? His dive move looks just like Nova's S and he's got a lot of real heavy hitting normals and he's got that long forward airdash. I'm not saying Nova ain't in, but I'm seeing similarities.
@2:42: Thor whiffs his launch and cancels straight into command grab? He could do that in MvC3, right?
@3:35 Chun-Li is seen charging her spinning bird kick, as her hands and feet start to glow. That's pretty neat.
Power Stone's regular activation either puts you into a hard knockdown or ground bounce, or Chun's ground Hyper OTGs.
Strider and Chun both have air supers, which is interesting.
Seems like characters have less health or take more damage? Strider's magic series seems to be shredding Hulk's health of all people. But Thor doesn't seem to do nearly the same damage vs. Ultron. Really weird.
The tag cancelling thing makes more sense to me know. Ultron throws a cinematic command grab-esque move out there and gets caught in it while Strider is coming in. Now THAT is hype. Get caught in a cinematic move, come out, and the second character is already wailing on you. That would just look pretty badass TBH, and makes it look a lot more like a team effort.
Hawkeye being able to juggle you with 3 different arrow types is super fucking cool.
Upon reviewing this footage once more, OKAY DIS MARVEL AND I AM GLAD

There are no passive effects that we have evidence of IIRC. You can use the base ability, whatever new move is granted to you, without cost, however.

Hulk confirmed to be my main again and Thor confirmed to still be shit
Since they are re-using a lot of assets i really hope this game has a ton of characters.
I'm totally okay if they just copy & paste the characters from MvC3 but if they do that i want to see a ton of new characters.
But since they revealed not 2 or 3 characters at once this gives me hope, 8 chars is a lot for one showing.

Cyclops must be glad he isn't in this game to deal with this shit anymore.
And yes, he does suffocate and die like that.

Hey Capcom, I've heard you're re-using assets.
Why not put She-Hulk back in?
Why not put She-Hulk back in?
Yeh, but st. H doesn't seem to have armor anymore. They giveth and they taketh away.

fuckin' called it, man
No one could whiff launch in mvc3 and cancel it into anything unless it's rooms forward H.
Thor still can't get shit off an air grab

Kinda silly that they (still) don't let you get an OTG followup or anything after that.
I think you should do a GAF search of all my posts with the words "Tekken" and "animation".
This is one thing I will forever give NRS props for. MKX reanimated nearly everything from MK9.
you say this and yet all marvel games aside from mvc3 were developed by capcom. Lol
The lack of art direction is just killlller UMvC3 had SUCH a look and for them to be copying a lot of things over (which I don't mind - bring em' all) why did they just shit it all in the process... It also looks too zoomed in and you get to focus more on the bad models and animations while feeling claustrophobic. UI is gaudy AF and looks like a mobile game... It just all seems to look so rough.
Some mechanics looks cool! Stones seem like a laugh and the super Space Stone putting fools in a box is a laugh. Seems like it could fill the third character void! The 2meter combo breaker thing is a Neat fucking thing for VS games (always liked the Mega Crash in TvC) but the way it works in this seems crazy... bringing in the other member and making you break the combo yourself? (so you can't do it when you have one chara down? & might fuck up and Happy Birthday yourself?). Every other normal seems to OTG? Hawkeye OTG slides after level 3, Chris' baton OTG? Auto combos and auto supers are whatever but the talk of DP being down down is a nightmare.
Lots of issues and it's out pretty damn soon. It's not looking good folks -- It's looking like SFV all over again.

SFV graphics and gameplay were fine, issue was lack of features and shit online servers. This game has bland graphics, but we don't know the features yet.

I heard it was Japan for the longest time, I could be wrong.
If it is Capcom Japan (not too sure now) I think it's probably because Marvel wants it to look a specific way? Only MvC3 was outsourced that was a MvC game if I recall.

Looks like a less shitty MvC3.
Lots of people have issues with SFVs graphics and gameplay.

What issues are there with graphics other than hair clipping and shadow dithering? Game looks great and animates well, and certainly looks better than MvCi.

The vid.me should work
also remember that even though an external company handled the load, internal capcom (Itsuno, etc.) handled the executive roles.
Will be interesting to see who the combat lead is since Neo_G left for SNK.

This shit will make for some epic tournament moments.
The crowd will go crazy once someone is in that cube in grand finals.

INCOMING GAME
You. I like you.
This. Please this.
I'm not sure why people are bringing up T7's animations as if it doesn't get shit for it, I'm not sure why people are bringing up T7 for reusing things in general as if they don't get shit as a whole for it. That's one thing that's come with each Tekken entry since T6 hit. There's always shit for a reuse of animation, costumes, gameplay as a central whole I mean if there's 1 thing people complain about regarding the actual game, reused graphic style, cosmetics, it's that.
What? SFV looks great, it has some issues like heavy clipping, a couple of weird faces and stupid shadows, but other than that the models are 👌🏻👌🏻
