Marvel vs Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds |OT3| Self-Control Support Group

Just woke up after a much needed rest.

Damn, I think that fightclub did more to kill Mahvel than anything else. Seems like no one has anything else to talk about. Oh, and just letting you know that I was pissed at the game's netcode, not you, Tobe.

I'm pretty sure it is.

Stuff like that makes me want to get better with Morrigan.
I love how they were shitting on her while praising the player at the same time lol.

LOL how did Fight Club kill Marvel? Hype train is full in effect along with impressions of Strange and Nemesis. It's just there is also lots of distraction from Gamescom particularly the DOTA 2 tournament which I am also following currently.

Not to mention I have been knee deep in DmC stuff that I have to take care of. Haven't had the time to go over the numerous UMVC3 footage, only thing I got to see was some Strange and Iron Man stuff.

FYI, if you trade in Marvel at Best Buy right now towards a preorder, you still get 22 for it. That's a great deal, IMO. Just got rid of my copy yesterday.

Tempting. But then I wouldn't have marvel till Ultimate came out.

Edit: Actually, knowing me I'll probably have a reason to play vanilla some time down the road. I'm gonna hang onto it.

Just sat an hour in training mode waiting for opponents that would not pop up. The two matches I had before that I had one ragequit vs a Wolverine/Wesker/Phoenix team and in the other all was smooth sailing until a huge lagspike set in while I was finishing off his last character. From that moment on the game remained laggy and an X-Factor level 3 Wesker + lag is not very fun.

Really hope everything about the online modes changes for the better in Ultimate.
 
I would trade it off, but I'm wondering whether or not I'll regret it down the road since I want to get a PVR. I'm thinking of trading the Xbox version and borrowing my cousin's copy every once in a while if he doesn't play it too often...

I'd say that people outside of GAF are hyped. If something like DOTA is distracting people I hate to imagine what Uncharted, Gears, Halo and CoD will do in the coming months. :S

ok im getting really mad has capcom hot fixed the game or something cause my BnB with magneto is not working H f.dash MH fly isnt working at least not on xbox im going to try on ps3 if its any different.

edit: so i tried the combo with the xbox disconnected from the internet and it works, yeah fucking hot fix i hate it

double edit: everything is back to normal which is weird cause if it was a hot fix i wouldve thought it would be for the peekaboo glitch, but it is still present.
 
Just got a digital camera for my photoshop class, hopefully now I'll be able to back up some of my insane ramblings :)

Oh, and I got the Clockwork Marvel 1.0 movie. It's pretty entertaining so far.

Holy shit:

Is it cool to drop if someone puts you into the Deadpool/Trish glitch? Cause I wasn't gonna wait around 57 Marvel seconds for that bullshit.

I don't think MVC3 does hot fixes, only MK9.

so i had a first to 10 with smurfx. it ended 10-8 (if we count the one you had a phone call 9-8)

so if you know smurf you should know that his natural habitat is the corner zoning the shit out of you and if you come any closer call haggar and push you out of the corner.
this strategy is godlike cause you no longer need to worry of left/right mixups only high/low and thats when haggar comes out.

it only has a couple of holes like if you have a haggar assist you can create stare down's and the main character with better normals wins. once i got the hang out of the timing in your haggar assist it was easy to put pressure on you. also knowing a bit about frames helps a lot wesker standing H is 0 on block nothing that task has can punish it and its a way to create sort of a frametrap against shield skill which smurf loves.

in the end i think that if you changed the timing with the haggar assist you shouldve beat me.

also zero on rushdown with haggar and task assist wouldve raped me i have no answer to that sword wielding midget.

well phoenix is phoenix and she destroys whole planets and shit. but the interesting thing about it is that you change your gameplan against her leaving the corner to the character your not supposed, obviously i took advantage of that.

pretty much thats it i dont remember anything else worth noting.

i usually throw people with taskmaster when i create that stare down but i wasn't on my game with that today.

just lost to solarpowered 10-8. its just not my day. lol i will continue to lose too till i figure out how to completely counter ammy. that is the only character i don't have a real strategy against. the only strategy i have is throwing her. i basically threw up a bunch of shit against the wall hoping to see if it stuck but didn't have much luck. i really don't have a strategy against the sword mode.
 
Thanks for the vids, Karsticles. It is nice to see someone rocking the house with such an unconventional team. His Haggar and Arthur are especially sick haha.

I do think his Hsien-Ko could be better though. I don't see the reasoning behind some of his choices.

I was lucky that the connection was so good. It made it much easier for me to complete my combos with Ammy. I have to admit that I'm afraid of what lengths you'll go to in order to beat me next time...

i gotta find out how to punish that dog. she hulk used to be my biggest problem and right now its ammy and dormammu.
 
It's really entertaining, but it is what it says. Marvel 1.0. You'll get a basic idea of how Clock plays and why he chose characters, etc, but it's not as in depth as the Viscant DVD even if it's just as long, and Clock by his own admission doesn't use training mode and doesn't really know about frame data, and I found a lot of his Doom stuff to be incorrect.

That said, it was filmed before he started using Doom on point, so it's also outdated, and that means a lot more for the way Clock plays than for the way Viscant plays.
 

A Pretty Panda

fuckin' called it, man
I remember downloading a preview of their Marvel tutorial before the Viscant one came out which had Marn as the featured player. I wonder if they are even going to release the Marn one aswell since it's probably just as outdated as the Clockw0rk one.

I wanted to write stuff up after the fight because I think it helps me make a note of what my weakpoints are.

I can't say that my Ammy did too bad at all, but I have to change that habit of striking a blocking opponent with lightning if they've got a level 3 and three bars. I completely forgot about that when I was fighting with Haggar. My combos with Ammy also need to be little tighter if I want to completely drown Taskmaster. Zero didn't feel like a bigger problem because he seems to have fewer answers for Ammy than Taskmaster, but it leads me to my next problem...

It almost feels like Capcom went out of their way to make Morrigan bad. I remember trying to beat Sougenoumu on reaction with Okami shuffle in the hopes that I could shut Zero down before you get Taskmaster out there and he ACTUALLY blocked the shuffle. I decided to check Morrigan's Astral hyper and Sougenoumu only to find that Morrigan has 13 recovery frames and Sougenoumu has 3. Having to depend on finishing shower to get things done also sucks because of the few options and the shit damage on the hyper. I think my team would be crippled if I were not able to DHC into something like Okami shufle for better damage. Getting touched by Taskmaster is practically a death sentence with Ammy and looking at his arrows in comparison to finishing shower kinda pisses me off. So many things about Morrigan just scream " we almost got it, but we've got a lunch break now).

When I think about the arrows I finally move on to the subject of Hsien-Ko. Damn, Taskmaster has an answer for everything when Haggar is sitting in the wing. I've recently started to incorporate Senpu Bu approaches into my arsenal, but Tasky's parabolic arrows shut that down too. Shield skills also beats the shit of her j.H approach.

I really got lucky last night and I was actually more disturbed by my winning streaks than the asskickings you gave me last night.

Notes:
-Hsien-Ko desperately needs new and improved movement options. I've gotten to the point where I can deal with the crap damage and I just want better movement.

-Ammy's glaive is super awesome! :)

-Morrigan is a freaking tournament sleeper that would do some amazing stuff with damage tweaks, a ground dash and hyper buffs(cut recovery window on Astral and give her back her beam for top tier).

-Taskmaster is such a scary character, but it feels rewarding to put him in his place. Freaking pink death is the name I've got for him now lol.

-LOL I AIN'T GOING NEAR HAGGAR. RESPECK DA PIPE!

-NO, ZERO. BAD, ZERO. STOP JUGGLING ME WITH STANDING H EVEN THOUGH I GOT BEHIND YOU. STUPID HITBOX! ;_;
 
I learned from the Marn video that crouching B is good and that I should teleport down from the air to catch people with it. Of course I never use that trick anymore because I'm always using the A button for chargin mah lazor.

I don't think that was a tutorial more like him reviewing his matches (about Marn).

They should do one on Combofiend just because we got enough out of Phoenix teams from Viscant 1.0 Marvel video. Combofiend is already part of that whole sponsorship and comes on CC quite a bit so it wouldn't be a surprise at all.

I can definitely say for a FACT that more people would want to see She Hulk over seeing Phoenix a 3rd time. Especially when it's Combofiend's She Hulk team. He has so much technology on that team and synergy, the entire video would probably be around 2 hours long.

I want to see Justin Wong 1.0

"So basically I throw out Akuma assist and then I dash in with Wolverine.."

They could also save money and re-sell it as Noel Brown 1.0 and many more.

Justin already made a Marvel 1.0, it's called "In the Lab w/ Justin Wong" by Seb.

It's very short but it covers everything you need to know. The instant overheads essentially. And guess what? It was made like day 1 of MVC3. :D

Yeah, that was back when all the day 1 bitching was about Sentinel. I remember Justin saying Floe went like 20-0 against him by doing easy shit with Sentinel, so Justin had to come up with something to beat Sentinel and ended up using that Wolverine/Akuma team.

I've been playing this game a lot recently after dropping it for a month due to its insanely unbalanced characters. Going back, I can tell I've gotten a lot better but still require more work.
I do have a question if anyone can answer. This is in regard to a Dante plus Wesker team up. Wesker uses his combo. Then calls Dante as an assist. Once that's done, he can go up and grab and start the combo all over again and repeat until the character is dead. Is there really no way to avoid this combo because Dante's assist lasts for quite some time and gives Wesker enough time to grab. Really got destroyed by this strategy. I know there are people who try to use a similar strategy with She-Hulk without any assists but all you have to do to block it is not press anything and let your character come to the ground. The same doesn't work for Wesker.

Game isn't really anymore unbalanced than any other fighter out there. It has it's definite tiers and such but as far as playability in the casual environment goes every character is insanely viable.

As far as your question goes, that isn't a combo that's a RESET. You counter that grab reset by teching (forward + H same as you would throw). And I am assuming this is an air throw. There is a version on the ground Wesker can do that is a command throw and you have to jump out of that one if he gets you in a set up.

I <3 Marvel.

I was playing the result of randoms: Hsien-Ko/X-23/Chun-Li vs. XeroSauce's C.Viper/Akuma/Wesker and it was so intense. I WAS HAVING FUN, EVEN WITH HSIEN-KO ON MY TEAM. So much hilarity.

Random Marvel is some of the best experience you will have in your gaming career (1 Random at a time, not triple random because then you can at least choose your assist properly and change team order if need to).
 
I've recently made my friend use Viscant's team every time he asks for character requests. He never uses assists and it is my secret way of trying to change his mind. ;)
