Just to confirm, MvC:I doesn't have a mode where two players can play per team, correct?
Didn't Capcom produce SFxT where you could do that? Wasn't it "successfully done", then? Would it have been super difficult to have a casual mode like this? And I don't mean like dramatic battle in SF Alpha 3. Otherwise, I still don't understand the utility of going back to 2v2 in 2017. (Not to mention the lack of the assists even in favor of the gems....I can't even...I can't even talk about it.)
I'm not trying to be negative or bust anyone's hype, but I just don't understand. Maybe that's a question that Capcom has already addressed, but I haven't seen anything explicitly about it following the game all these months.
I'll be holding out to get this game until December though. I just need some time to feel it out and just observe from afar for just a second. I honestly would feel disingenuous just buying it with my reservations about the entire game rollout. I love Capcom, and they gave me X-men: Children of the Atom and every important iteration thereafter. I even like this game a bit more now, but I just can't buy it day one.

You seem to be thinking that the assist removal and 2v2 is some kind of downgrade. After playing it for a weekend, it's not.
I haven't played the game, so it's only my opinion from every single video I've seen, but I do think it's 100% a downgrade. I may be wrong, but that's what I believe.
It's a different game, thats the simplest awnser. Just because its one less member doesnt mean its downgraded, its just different. Just like 3 members was different back in the day from 2 members going from XMvSF, MSHvSF and MvC to MVC2.
They made the game around it being 2 member teams, they didnt just take MvC3, remove one member and assists and went "welp theres the game!". its this part that people dont seem to understand.

Hmm should I double dip? Prepurchased a key for $30 on pc ... is there crossplay?
If PS4 copy leaks early enough in the city ...

Go check out some of Max's vids. The free tag + stone mechanic make the game arguably the most insane and complex Marvel game yet even with 2 characters and no assists. I'm personally very excited just based on what I've seen.
But at the same time, I don't 'believe' in preordering games and no one should buy this if they're even slightly skeptical of it until its out and we can see more of it in more people's hands. So yeah, definitely wait and see is the smartest option.
Thank you for your thoughts.

As in "Heathcliff"
That's me being a pessimist so I would be happy if I'm wrong at the end.
Go check Max's footage and see what you think, if it doesnt feel like Marvel to you, that is fair enough, but you will find most people that have played or seen proper footage (by proper I mean people that know how to play it already, Max's footage, UM Tyrant's footage, etc) not only say its not "dumbed down" or something, its actually less casual than 3 (lol). Its all about the tagging and counter switching now, thats what really "replaces" the assists, not the gems as initially thought.
East Coast slowly dying.
Yeah, it makes sense with the amount of opportunities on the west coast, but it's gonna be hard to have eyes on the east coast scene when we keep losing notable figures. Even though big ups to Yipes, I can't blame him at all he's doing his thing.

I wonder who will become the new "leaders" of the East Coast, West Coast, South, Midwest, etc. scenes for Infinite.
He said so at NLBC last night. Moving to Norcal. Taking MvCI seriously.
thats not off topic at all
but we dont know, that leaked "proposal" seemed to indicate it would, but we simply dont know.
No word yet, I think we'll see something but they'll probably announce that at Capcup.

Why NorCal?
IDK, said we'll see. I'm guessing FChamp and some kinda FG house.
you guys reckon many known pros will be at CEOtaku? It seems to be mostly a anime tournament, but its also the first "proper" MvCI tournament I believe.
It's a offshoot from actual CEO right? And that one is pretty big.

Exactly my thoughts. Being able to tag out of anything, anywhere, anytime, for free no less, is incredible. And then add in what the gems can do for specific teams...the possibilities will be insane.
Socal Regional is happening launch week.
oh fuck its the same weekend, 22nd to 24th, I had no idea.
RIP CEOtaku ;_;
Tournament cap for Marvel at SoCal Regionals is 512, same as SF5...
Mahvel baby?
Platform: PlayStation 4

Should have been 4v4, since more characters naturally make it a deeper game.
/s
I think these are the main 3 points that would've made me purchase the game on Day 1:
- Stylish UI and menus worthy of Marvel vs Capcom. It's hard going into these generic ass menus after MvC3/UMvC3
- The 6 DLC characters should've been part of the base roster, I think pretty much everyone agrees with this point.
- Legacy stick support on PS4/XBO (mainly PS4 since that's the console I have)
If you're referring to my posts, they aren't concern trolling.
With all due respect, they were thoughts/questions I felt were legitimate, and your comments quite frankly don't delegitimize them no matter who you are or how many posts you make on here.
LOL! Those fucking infinity "stones" wtf

Yeah those look terrible. Wasn't expecting them to look like that at all.
Those "questions" have already been answered in the thread numerous times before. If you want me to detail it then I will gladly do it.

We're 11 days out from new Mahvel.
Personally I can't wait. Gameplay is looking fucking nutty. Heroes look like they can hang. And the scumbaggery to explore seems monumental. It's almost time.
I don't even play the capcom side, but tell me tag xx spamming Soul Stone during million dollars isn't hilarious and textbook Marvel 😂😂 game is gonna be great in the fun department at least.
Dante Soul is gonna be a shell almost guaranteed.

It's no legitimate because you had your mind set from the start and nothing can convince you other wise regardless of what's presented to you.

I always knew he had the rekka, but now that i think about it, I haven't seen him use classic Repulsor Ray in any footage.

Honestly wasn't super excited for this since no one I know is getting it, but picked up a key for about $30 since I've always enjoyed MvC. Infinite looks really good. The visuals never bothered me too much, especially with the latest build they showed off. Every game has its bad moments, but overall MvCI looks good. Especially the gameplay. The roster of 30 is pretty decent top-to-bottom, would have liked to see Jill or Phoenix Wright but it is what it is. Probably gonna roll with the all-Capcom lineup of Chris, Dante, and Morrigan. May use Strider quite a bit too.
I um....have some news for you....
It's 2v2, not 3v3, but shit looks hype as fuck.

White coat Dante looks like trash in this game.

Shocked that the Trophy list hasn't been released yet. Do we know any so far? Hopefully it's more Marvel 3 than Ultimate.
Wish someone asked to do more close ups of the figures. They look pretty good from a distance though.
ftfy
We've seen a couple of trophies pop-up in videos of the release build.

I never play shotos but Ryu looks super fun in this and Evil Ryu looks amazing.
I'm definitely gonna be fuckin with Ryu in this. This game's got me especially interested in how it will effect the more "basic" characters like him and Cap.
