Given the structure of how fighting games goes, anybody thinking this will be ground shattering will be in for a rude awakening if they think this will translated into someithng moba like with a fighting game.

Between team combinations, different infinites for each side and what not, I see new UMvC3 combos almost every time I watch it! Last being Undefeated 16 last month, this take care of creativity and repetitiveness. Marvel 3 does have ToDs though, which is like single thing KI is missing.
How big is Radiant Entertainment? I doubt they're AAA production big.

Don't think they need to be AAA big, if they can ramp up modestly and make either fg or a darksiders type game with LoL's ip, I'll be a very happy camper. LoL's world is intresting, mobas are shit. But it moving out? Good.

they'd have the resources and know-how to do a proper multiplayer online game, maybe not in terms of balancing but it'd definitely have the proper functionality
basically it'd launch with everything SFV doesn't have

Darksider clone, as in an open world game with dungeons and bosses, kinda hard to make something like that with a small team, unless they go with an isometric look or some shit.
League is getting rid of that shitty adobe air client this year.
I hope this buyout means that seth killian and his team will get the funds to do what they want to do.
ESPORTS IS TAKING OVER, BUT FIRST WE MUST BURN EVERYTHING DOWN

RIP rising thunder. Game was fun as hell. Guess imma play it for the next few days while I still can.
Wouldn't be surprised, if they opt to go for non-traditional fighter like EXVS 2v2 or more style.

I don't know about that. But I think whatever they end up making will emphasize being easy to pick up.
So don't expect a Guilty Gear.
It's easier to pick up than a traditional fighter and you can blame your team partners for losing. Sounds like a winning combo to me.
making people keep talking about Lupe Fiasco, I assume
Beating Daigo is huge yo

"Hey I got this over here ok...You just worry about starching up that fleshlight"
Dude has no chill
If they were gonna do that why hire traditional 2d fg experts?
Because they are available and good equipped for this kind of task? I'd assume that 2d fg experts can transfer part of their knowledge to 3d, like movement etc.. That's infinitely better than devs like ninja theory pre and post DmC.
They also hired the ex lead combat designer of Darksiders it seems.

They have a team there making other games and never launching them, they can ramp up to a midsize team with these leads they could get something going. You don't need a overly massive team but a good 80-150 person line up. With that money riot could spin up.
Tencent didn't spend the money they did on Riot to invest in games with a low revenue ceiling. Tragic also has a very long history with fighting games (and he was the former owner of GameCombos/Dustloop). I don't know if a LoL-themed fighting game could have that kind of impact, but I could at least see the argument that it could. They're making a fighting game of some sort. You don't buy out a company with people like the Cannon brothers, S-Kill, Maj, etc. and put them on hat making duty.
he's still the owner of dustloop
Which type? Last time I tuned in it was always the old classics or 80s.

Fuckin' hell a good Cammy is mentally draining for a Dhalsim player. Not nearly as unfair as the match-up was in IV but still.
Marvel combos have always been long, repetitive and boring strings don't kid yourself

Congratulations to Riot on finally having a good game.
He's also the guy who does the player introductions for Top 8s at Evo

Doesn't have to be LoL-themed, could also be a new IP. There is also to consider that they also got GGPO tech in their hands now with this acquisition. Whatever the reason is, the fact stands that they acquired a team with a set of particular expertise. What's next is everyone's guess.

Riot did not obtain GGPO, did not come with the deal. I'm sure they'll use it, but it's not owned by Riot.

Nigga please. I know alot of y'all like to hate on Marvel but to say none of the combos have been creative at all is some bullshit.
