Remember the days fighting games used to blow your balls off? Like tekken tag and soul calibur, I miss those days

Remember? Revelator, Tekken 7 and Injustice 2 are doing 'em today.

 

[BadWolf]

At least it's way less chaotic than MVC2 AND 3. Could barely follow sometimes in that game.

Expect the game to become much faster once people learn how to play it.

 

[Ryce]

MvC3 has great animations, so I don't see what the problem is. If every character was remade entirely from scratch we'd have a starting roster of 20 characters.

 

[Archpath1]

Time stone!Time stone!Time stone!

It always urks me when a voice line is tied to a certain move

Looks ok so far, visuals look different for sure.

 

[TreIII]

Ya know there is a thing called a 'Soul Gem' in this game. Just saying.

...I see your point.

 

[mrmickfran]

Bruh Zero's theme was fire.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kp3m3xS6qDA

Doesn't hold a candle to the original tho

 

[enzo_gt]

Recycling assets is one of the best things about the franchise, it's partially what allows these huge roster sizes and diversity of characters to be possible.

 

[Anne]

Something about the hitstop or game speed when combos start happening looks like complete and total garbage.

 

[IntelliHeath]

I still don't get it why people still complaining about reusing assets since it save the development the time so they could make more characters and that meant more characters on the roster.

Ya know there is a thing called a 'Soul Gem' in this game. Just saying.

The depth of gameplay the gems is going to provide your team is pretty insane. Ya'll ain't seen nothing yet. The space gem was pretty much letting Strider do a god damn infinite!

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Doesn't hold a candle to the original tho

Yeah but X3's Zero theme is better anyway.

[DarkLordMalik]

How many characters are confirmed/expected for this game?

 

[Skab]

Ya know there is a thing called a 'Soul Gem' in this game. Just saying.

SO MY POST FROM A FEW PAGES BACK WAS RIGHT?

Holy shit guys. Keits just posted an amazing theory on twitter.

What if bodys of KO'd characters stay on the ground because one of the stones (soul gem) can fuckinng bring them back?

 

[enzo_gt]

How many characters are confirmed/expected for this game?

All we have to go off of is an informal "huge."

I'm expecting around what MvC3 had at launch, personally.

 

[JeTmAn81]

Didn't MVC3 really just recreate a lot of the classic move looks and animations from the sprite-based games anyway? In that sense, is being able to directly reuse animations for another polygonal title any different from that?

 

[BadWolf]

It's funny seeing people in here defend asset reuse when SneakersSO has stated in the other thread that no assets are being recycled from previous games for MVCI.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

This can't get quoted enough.

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Ya won't hate reused assets when this game launches with 50 characters.

Spoiler

It won't tho

 

[Hag]

Can we expect X, Morrigan and Ryu videos for tomorrow?

 

[Jawmuncher]

Ya won't hate reused assets when this game launches with 50 characters.

Spoiler

It won't tho

I half expect a small roster with a lot of repeat DLC

 

[Skilletor]

I still don't get it why people still complaining about reusing assets since it save the development the time so they could make more characters and that meant more characters on the roster.

I want my fighters to be created from scratch every time. Also, I want them released in a timely fashion. Also, I don't like DLC, so create the roster from scratch, but also have a huge roster.

Also, have mostly new characters. But if my favorite old character isn't in the game, I'm going to complain about it. And he better have the moves I liked before and not new moves that I don't like. Because really what I want is everything to be new, but not new, different, but the same.

 

[mrmickfran]

Yeah but X3's Zero theme is better anyway.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQgxfG8-sZA

But his X1 theme is GOAT

 

[PSqueak]

Looks like Hawkeye has a new level 3, Ant-Man basically confirmed, no?

Thor has a new super (lvl 3) and they demoted Strider's ouroboros super to lvl 1.

Chris seems to have an ammo mechanic now, looks interesting.

Hype.

 

[IntelliHeath]

How many characters are confirmed/expected for this game?

I think we have 14 confirmed characters, 1 confirmed DLC character, and 6-7 rumored characters.

Confirmed Characters

Captain America
Captain Marvel
Hawkeye
Hulk
Iron Man
Rocket Raccoon
Thor
Ultron

Chris Redfield

[The Broken Ska Record]

The DLC is supposed to be all-new characters. So I doubt any repeats from 3.

 

[mcmmaster]

MvC3 has great animations, so I don't see what the problem is. If every character was remade entirely from scratch we'd have a starting roster of 20 characters.

I don't think these animations are copied entirely from MvC3. Something looks clunky/slower about them like they've fiddled with them, they look like they have less weight exaggeration behind them.

Also MvC3 had a 38 roster count so yeah poor argument.

I don't get why Capcom can't get this.

They never do anything right. It's so easy.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Nope.

 

[Doctrine Dark]

I really wanna play. I can already tell I'm going to be hooked once I get my hands on it.

 

[Skab]

Nope.

Yeah no, X1 is the goat.

Ya'll should be speculating what the Soul, Mind, & Reality gems will do.

 

[shaowebb]

This was my favorite part in the gameplay video:

Cube traps for dayz.

Wtf!? Just noticed it said aerial rave, counter, and active switch.

Counters? Is that other dude's stone lending him counters?

 

[PSqueak]

Thanks for the write up!

I still wonder what the body thing is for. Bodies don't disappear/explode/etc. until the final round of play, perhaps?

Ya know there is a thing called a 'Soul Gem' in this game. Just saying.

RIP exploding Megaman X, Zero and Strider.

 

[Vice]

Wtf!? Just noticed it said aerial rave, counter, and active switch.

It looks like it may have been a counter hit.

 

[Skilletor]

Dawg, I'm so hype on this footage I don't even care. Give it to me.

 

[Skab]

Ya'll should be speculating what the Soul, Mind, & Reality gems will do.

I'll take you ignoring me as a sign that the soul gem resurrection theory is correct.

And I'm hoping mind gem gives parries, like the heroes and heralds card did.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Yeah no, X1 is the goat.

Okay fine let's agree to disagree.

But at least we can all agree that X1 Boomer Kuwanger is the best stage theme.

That part at 4:08 is so freakin good.

Edit: ah screw it, the whole OST is just too amazing to choose one track as the best.

I'm not even sure how they'll accomplish shrinking powers in a 2D fighter, but I can't wait to see the result.

I can't even imagine what reality gem will do.

 

[A Pretty Panda]

It's a counter hit

 

[Lovely Salsa]

Remember? Revelator, Tekken 7 and Injustice 2 are doing 'em today.

Tekken 7 and injustice 2 look impressive to you?

 

[PSqueak]

..."Easy Hyper Combo"?

Im guessing it's like, you know in MVC2 and MVC3 when you press the shoulder buttons to do a team hyper combo but if you have only one level of meter it does a single instant character super?

Im guessing it's that.

 

[Skilletor]

Remember? Revelator, Tekken 7 and Injustice 2 are doing 'em today.

Only one of those is doing that to me.

I need dat business ninja.

 

[Skab]

oh boy now you did it

 

[Laurel_McFang]

Really feel like Injustice 2 looks and or plays better than this. Not sure why, but Marvel cs Capcom games just always make me want more Strider games.

 

[cordy]

Dudes be posting with a monocle on when talking about not wanting reusable assets, amazing graphics and a large roster with 2017 Capcom as the developer lol.

Yall kill me.

 

[IntelliHeath]

I'm not even sure how they'll accomplish shrinking powers in a 2D fighter, but I can't wait to see the result.

I assume shrinking power probably only featured in Hyper moves or/and Level 3.

 

[Prism Sentence]

I thought T7 looked impressive two years ago when it was announced.

 

[Negaduck]

I'm getting more hype the more I watch this video.

Okay okay, I see you Capcom. Now how do I control this madness?

 

[HotHamBoy]

Looks cheap and gameplaywise does nothing for me. Put MvC2 on modern systems

> says new game looks cheap

> wants port of 17 year old game made entirely of resused sprites, mismatched 3D backgrounds and inappropriate muzak OST

> says new gameplay looks bland

> wants old gameplay that has been thoroughly exhausted

Anyway, at least they ported MvC3 to modern consoles and PC. If they ported MvC2 I guarantee the netcode would be just as shit as it was on PS360.

 

[Muchi Muchi Pink]

Doesn't look too bad. But what is easy hyper combo?

 

[cordy]

Remember? Revelator, Tekken 7 and Injustice 2 are doing 'em today.

T7 and GG are. Haven't checked out much about IJ2 though.

T7's got the best looking Akuma in FG history.
