im actually REALLY surprised there hasnt been a marvel 3 hack like project M yet

something like that would be AMAZING for the life of the game and would breathe new life into it...
Wii games have been hacked for a while... a semi functional PS3 game emulator just came out. It's not going to be optimized for a few years at least and by that time we would have new games to look forward to anyway.

Game would've been hacked already if it was on the PC.
 
how do you guys feel about low hitbox characters like rocket in fighting games in general. People want to put the p3 dog in p4u2 and I'm on the side that it would be really stupid given its size. He would just naturally low profile many moves since there aren't huge hit spheres (like marvel).

Depends on the game. Yoda was dumb as hell because Soul Calibur isn't a game designed around such small characters, but in 2D games it's fine.

I always felt weird with inclusion of midget sized characters in fighting games. Servbot, Ammy and RR come to mind. They work out though in the case of MVC3 like you said because the hurt spheres are quite large on characters especially when they are being comboed.

If they make it work then more power to them.

Forgot about Yoda and Gon. Yea those characters are pretty stupid because of the nature of 3D games.

In the case of ammy, I think the wide hit box makes up for it to a degree.

Also the nature of the game with large hitbox and TOD make it more bearable in marvel

Yeah yoda was extremely stupid. I can see NRS and 3d games in general having issues with this.

For persona I don't think small hitbox characters work at all. Many normals would whiff off a standing dog since the dog is like RR size and P4 hitboxes are less generous.

5500 viewers was right what I expected. Like I said I'm not expecting 10k.

By the way I love switching to other games during breaks people need to hold that. Sf4 and marvel on 24:7 lol
 

Interesting, Kindevu is whiffing cr. MK after a back throw to give him the perfect time to jump in with when Momochi used DWU. And cr. MK is a total of 12f longer than cr. MP, which is almost the exact timing DWU leaves you grounded. People just need to find set ups against DWU, and if unblockables can be found then the one waking up will be more predictable as they'll most likely want to avoid the unblockable.

Fuck midgets.

I think UB's were also supposed to be taken out of the game as well, but I do think there will be anti-DWU setups. DWU won't kill set play as much as people think except for a few months.

We were actually doing this during the loketest.

It won't kill it, but it will remove the guaranteed nature of it.

All they did was remove all the known ones. I don't think it's possible to completely remove unblockables from this game. DWU was added to weaken set play. But DWU will probably introduce new unblockables. And when they're found, people will be more predictable as they don't want to get hit by the unblockable which only works if you do DWU.

Ken for secret top tier.

Isn't the Red Focus going to be a huge buff for Akuma? He can just do standing combo, Red Focus, Raging Demon.

From my very poor knowledge of SF4 it seems to me that Akuma and Viper are going to be among top characters in the game.

So with the damage reduction for ultra W, is there any actual reason for zangief to pick W over just straight up using U2? A fully stocked W U1 from gief seems to do little more damage than an ex spd

I wouldn't think so unless range comes into it.

Yep. In general characters that build meter and don't necessarily need it for a "get off me" move are going to have a fun time.

Juri got a lot of buffs too as did Oni.

Many characters got a lot of buffs so it's hard to say who got the best deal.

I think Ken looks good but does he look Akuma good? Hard to say.
