What is the point of 8 buttons? You only assign the 6 buttons in the options, no HK+HP or LP+HP options. Guess thats why theyre white buttons, and meant for other games.

Well I assigned the 360 controller triggers to the same as the default LB and RB because it felt more like playing on the DC, but hey 4 buttons is easier to hit then 2 for that hyper viper beam :lolSecretBonusPoint said:
I have the PS3 version and I've noticed that when playing 1 player against the computer, on whatever difficulty and with any combo of characters I've chosen, the computer selection is always the same. The first fight is always against Omega Red/Dr Doom/Collossus, the second fight always has Spiderman, Zangief and so on... there doesn't seem to be any randomizer, which is odd as I have the original Dreamcast game and that was not the case in that version at all. Is this a known issue? Has Capcom said anything about fixing it?

It seems no one on Gaf plays this game on 360...

No. You aren't a true fighting game fan unless you play in the arcades.

The new artwork makes no sense with the matchups. They're all supposed to be based on the XM vs SF character select...

Man playing this online is very weird. Some matches I do ok, some I dominate, the rest I just keep getting murdered. The ok matches are very rare, the dominating matches are slightly less rare, but getting murdered is a clear majority for me. Some people have no shame in playing keep away, while some are just very skillful and can get you in a air combo by force.
I really need to find that tier list. I need some ranged attacks. BB hood's projectiles are too slow to keep up to ice, cyclops, ironman, etc.
Edit:found
Tier-list (Over-all Value to Team)
God Tier:
Sentinel
Storm
Magneto
Cable
Note:It is generally accepted that Sentinel and Storm are slightly above Cable and Magneto within this tier, but this is a very very slight difference.
Top Tier:
Cyclops
Iron Man
War Machine
Doctor Doom
Strider
Spiral
(wow I didn't know Strider was that high with those guys)
Upper Tier:
Blackheart
Psylocke
Captain Commando
Tron Bonne
Dhalsim
Anakaris
(I knew there was something special about Dhalsim. The dude is pretty good. Long range combos, can stay in the air a long time, and teleports)
Middle Tier:
Cammy
Colossus
Gambit
Iceman
Juggernaut
Marrow
Guile
Mega Man
Omega Red
Rogue
Ruby Heart
Charlie
B.B.Hood
Ken
(Surprised Ryu and Akuma is in lower tier while ken is in the above.)
Low Tier:
Akuma
Ryu
Silver Samurai
M.Bison
Captain America
Jin
Jill
Wolverine
Wolverine - Claw
Venom
Felicia
Morrigan
Sakura
SonSon
Bottom Tier:
Amingo
Chun-Li
Hayato
Sabretooth
Hulk
Shuma-Gorath
Spiderman
Thanos
Zangief
Dan
Servbot
(shocked hulk, spiderman, and Saber is in this. I should try them out. Jugger in middle tier, guess most of these characters aren't so jacked up to pick after all.)
Roll Tier:
Roll
After seeing these tiers I guess everyone is good to pick other than god tier maybe top tier too "for me".

I rarely if ever pick the higher up characters. But yeah, online is basically any team with at least one sentinel, magneto, cable and storm with keep away tactics ala projectiles and assists. It gets annoying and boring really fast. I tend to pick up close and personal characters like Psylocke, Spidey, Guile and Akuma. They have close to no answers for those characters.

Gief in iron mode and stuck as support/backup is hax too. I had to look at the list again, I thought gief was broken this way. Going to learn to play gief now. Guile/BB Hood/Gief, put Gief in the front so I can buff asap then change out. Tough to mess with that support.

Yeah, that's not true at all. Sticks are not the end all be all for fighting games.
MMaRsu said:
Rogue's biggest problem against top tier is getting in on them. And top tier excel at keeping 99% of the roster away, but if you can manage to get in then the pain can begin.
I wish they rebalanced the game.
DR2K said:
I wish they dropped the bullshit ranked achievements. Leave that space for people that want to only play MSP/S. :|
Playing MvC2 is supposed to be a social/fun experince despite the brokeness of the characters. Any character can beat Cable if the other player sucks, that is what makes it fun. :lol
If Capcom makes a MvC3 (Disney/Marvel, if you find this from a Google Search: License Capcom to do this, but demand 2D hand-drawn sprites from your artists and Capcom since I don't want 3D SF4 looking 2D fighting anymore), I really hope they bring SRK/tourney players in to tweak/himm-and-haww about the balance/changes to characters and additions to the roster before they release it. That would be the serious entry for the Vs series.
Isn't TvC balanced somewhat though? It seems Capcom has learned in the decade since this release.

Hail, peons, for I have come as ambassador from the great and bountiful Blueberry Butt Explosion
I realize that this really shouldn't be a big deal, but why does Backbone have to fuck with EVERYTHING. I mean, fuck! just leave the intro alone! Don't change the menus!
Why can't I have the authentic DC experience on another console? Why does Backbone have to put effort into fucking shit up?

Anyone else having issues getting online with the ps3? To add to the 3.0 issues; after I updated I cannot find quick matches and it locks up when doing an open search.

actually, I think much of GAF's BlazBlue community has tapered off too.AlfaTrion said:gutabo! you're back!!
i'm guessing you finally were allowed to use a credit card in your country?
Either everyone is playing SF4, Blazblue or Batman (this is my guess)
Yes, I'm back! Long story short, I have Mahvel on my 360 now! Couple of cons:AlfaTrion said:gutabo! you're back!!

- No stick for me yet, and even though I had some d-pad experience on the DC for 6 months(before I built my own stick), the 360 stick is one of the worst piece of junk ever. I even have issues trying to go from crouching block into standing block without jumping, and let's not even talk about special/super moves...
- LAG. I was a Magneto user, and I hate that whenever some other Mags(with a stick and what seems like no lag for them) starts rushing me down, the gameplay drops to maybe 10 frames per second and I get to see a ROM slideshow.
So far my main strategy has been using Spiral/Servbot/Capcom(YES, SERVBOT ON RANKED MATCHES BAYBEE!!!), getting a full meter with spiral while chipping the opponent as much as I can, then switching Servbot in and killing them USING SERVBOT. Yes, I'm serious. And I've got very far with this strat, I got up to 697 on the global matches ranking, and then I hit a wall against top tier only teams. Last time I saw my ranking it was 800 or 900 or something like that, anyway it was SO MUCH FUN... also many comebacks with CapCom
Then I switched to some Anakaris/Dhalsim/other teams (using well positioned coffin drops with Anak and teleport runaway with Sim) but I mostly lost against top tier teams. I'm not complaining, it was fun too getting people confused with weird tactics from old times. I even tried to do some Strider/Doom but unlike dhalsim's teleport, if you miss Strider's another move comes out and it's GGPO for stride.
I will play again this weekend for sure, so if you want to try to beat my servbot, I'm game!
P.S.: Gamertag: Gutabo2
That's a trick question. If you're not a stick user, you'll have to adapt first to the stick. Also, to "play the game better" besides solid tactics and knowledge of the game(among other thins) you need good execution, which most of the times is better with a stick.sturmdogg said:
Short version: Yes, but getting a stick will not make you better at the game, practice will. A stick will make it easier to hit all the buttons if you're used to using it.
I think I didn't answer your question, so please forgive me.
