From what it sounds like, they're not planning a MvC 4? Isn't the game like, insanely popular?

Did they put out a patch that nerfed Wesker already? The initial release made him stronger than in MvC3. Oh and yeah, nerf Vergil too.
No, but Wesker isn't as strong as initially thought, no where near in fact.

fuckin' called it, man
I only remember one patch for UMVC3 and that just took out the glitch where you can tech grabs anytime (during a move etc)
Remember how long it took them to make Street Fighter III? And then Street Fighter IV? And the time between MvC2 and MvC3?
Capcom likes to make too many iterations of their games, but the base games are spaced out.

For that first month or so, I had so much hate for Hulk.
I don't know. DMC3 Dante might stay, but we'd lose Vergil for sure. While I do like the staple characters, losing some of the lesser-knowns would be heart-breaking.

They should put that back in.
Heh, I did the same and asked for them to spread the love. PC/Steam needs this, the mod community would be bonkers and I could have Team Justice Friends (Major Glory/Val Halen/The Infraggable Crunk) legitimately.
I'm with these guys in sentiment, but let's not jump any non-specified guns right now. Go with what we've got.
MvC4 probably isn't until next gen.

I just wanted Heros vs Heralds to have an offline vs mode. Spent all this time making cards and teams but never got to fight against my bro or friends with them.

Assuming Darkstalkers exists and is in development and is being made for this generation of consoles, then I can't see anymore Capcom fighters beyond that landing this generation, too.

And the ON DISC DLC COSTUME GLITCH xD!
Everyone was using Magnetos Alt for that like short 4-5 days...

Wesker didn't get patched, people just figured out he's not as good as they initially thought. He's not even top 10 in the game.
Doing a next-gen MvC4 instead of content updates would make a lot more sense, business-wise. (Obviously, UMvC3 could really use a balance update though.)
He's still very good- the metagame issues are what keeps him in check. (He and Zero are very bad at navigating screens filled up with projectiles.)
Of course they're planning MvC4 but its a long ways off, and likely after SFV which is already a long ways off.
Capcom's official comment on why they're fighting games are so far apart: "These things take time."
Personally I predict SFV early 2015, and MvC4 the following year.

He's still pretty brutal as an XF3 anchor with some meter.

Nah he's still among the best, it's just that there are other character that can do what he does, but with a little more skill involved.
Hence the current lobbying for both a patch and a moderate amount of new content. Really though, if we get replays & hitbox viewers, fixed Heroes and Heralds and the character balance stuff, that's way way way more than anyone expected. The team is DONE with the game, it's just Capcom issuing a Capcom Test a la "hold your money up for Darkstalkers" here.

Wesker has way too many bad matchups. As shown by Yipes who has the best Wesker. FChamp was shutting him down with Magnetic blasts by them selves.

That's cute that some people think Wesker is still top 10.

I do wonder if another factor which could delay MvC4 is simply that Marvel doesn't seem all that interested in products that don't fit their own marketing schedule for their characters. If it did not look as if an MvC4 could help Marvel push characters at the right time, I could see it being delayed by an extra year or more. (Within whatever time frame Capcom would nominally like to see it released.)
Whos your top 10? I'd still have Wesker easily somewhere. Yipes Wesker is proof.
Oh come on now, he is in top 10. But top tier? No, I don't think so.

Still ranked in head and shoulders above ANY other marvel character for the most Top 8 team appearances in the roster though. Won by a TON so he can eat shit IMO. Random crossup hyper, and BS damage with X-factor and his combos/mixups are easy.

Capcom have to deal with Marvel's licencing structure as well. If they had a multi-year deal like Acti. We probably would be drowning in UMvC3 DLC. So it makes sense for them to say "Ask Marvel nicely" since they would like to do something that brings in the moolah but it's dependent on another partner.
Though something struck me when I was thinking about it last night. The reason we got MvC3 was because a fan asked (at the time) Marvel's EIC Joe Queseda at a con Q&A in 2007 if they would get back with Capcom after the EA deal tanked and Joe responded "I'd love to see it again. In fact, tell Capcom to give us a call and we can work something out".
Considering Marvel are as much fans as we are. I don't think they mind too much if we ask them (Except for the e-mail thing).

Yeah but watch toruneys where Wesker actually goes up against top tier characters with the best players. Yipes couldn't do anything to FChamp due to magnetic blasts.
And Wesker has average health, not high durability projectile, low aerial movement, and his XF comeback is no longer seen once you look at the numbers.

Here is a magneto costume...for your avatar, for being such fans.
He isn't the most used top 8 character anymore, that would be Doom and Magneto.
Top 15 in the game right now:
Zero (best), Viper, Vergil, Magneto, Dante, Doom, Strider, Morrigan, Dormammu, Spencer, Wesker, Wolverine, Nova, Hawkeye, Taskmaster.
Outside of these Amaterasu, Akuma, Frank, Sentinel and Strange are used for support purposes along with the occasional Phoenix anchor.

I see them doing more costumes before any sort of balance update.

And then they take it away because it looks like the king of Spain.

I'll be happy so long as they are at least talking with Capcom about next gen Mahvel.

I'm totally okay with this, but the time has passed for that kind of stuff.
I would pay $20 more for another set of costumes. As far as DLC costumes are concerned, UMvC3 kinda shits on every game I've seen, fighting game or not.
I'd pay for Capcom themed costumes for the Marvel cast and vice versa.

Not being able to change the colors of the alts automatically puts UMvC3's selections right near the bottom.

Yeah that part sucks. And they're really not even that good in the first place.
True, but the actual designs chosen are god tier, especially for fan service.

Yeah, the fanservice in the costume choices was completely off the charts. It would have been Capcom's best DLC costume moment had Marvel not been stupid about the colors.
