Marvel Vs. Capcom: Infinite Characters and Stages Roster Discussion Thread

You talking to the dude who bought RE: Code Veronica just for that DMC1 Demo.

It does not get more OG than that.

*high-five*

Wasn't looking forward to doing that, since I didn't enjoy the DC version of CV that much when I rented. But DMC just looked so rad when I saw shots of it in EGM and the like, and then I tried it for myself over a pal's house.

...Needless to say, I was hooked. Bought damn CV with my own money just so I could get more of that.
 
With a potential Ultron reveal, does that increase the chances of Sigma?

I would think so. Or at least we will know whether he is or isn't in this game. Seems kind of odd to me that the potential final boss of the game would be a mash up of 2 characters but they wouldn't be revealed at the same time.

I don't think there's much reason to reveal them at the same time unless Capcom also wants to reveal the full look of their fused form, which I doubt they want to. Plus they're still not showing off story mode stuff, apparently, so that gives them less incentive to bother revealing both at the same time.

It still is kind of weird that they wouldn't though, given the discrepancy between the Marvel and Capcom sides now. It could be that they want to have one half of the final boss for this information blowout, and then the other half for the next one. (E3?)

I remember Ben Judd from back when video game magazines came bundled with CDs. I think it was PSM or something that had a video where the editors went to Japan and did karaoke and zombie mocap at Capcom with Ben Judd.
 
I wonder why that reveal is going to have uneven numbers for both sides though. Does that mean another reveal with at least 2 Capcom characters to make up that discrepancy is going to follow that upcoming blowout soon thereafter? That would be swell.

Also Sigma is probably gonna be playable yeah. They're probably gonna keep him for story mode reveal tho.

Valid point. On that note....

I wonder if the next reveal is gonna be Sigma + 4 pther capcom + 3 marvel characters
 
I click the thread and see about ten new pages since last night. I look through them and find... nothing. No new leak, no deets, just old pictures of Devil Dinosaur, Hauzer, Phoenix and Darkhawk.

Oh, and btw, Devil Dinosaur and Regina should be the real match up, not DD and Hauzer.

There was a discrepancy with the MvC3 cinematic trailer, so maybe it's uneven for "story" reasons.

Ryu
Morrigan
Chris
Dante
Wolverine
Iron Man
Hulk
Deadpool
Dormammu
 
Also, I've been musing about how both Ultron and Sigma could potentially have a hyper move where their different bodies from over the years come to storm the opponent. Wonder if that will be included somehow for both of them, just the one, or possibly their merged form.

I wonder what new moves Hawkeye will get? Boomerang Arrow? He has so many nutty trick arrows.
He already has a ton of arrows and doesn't really need anything except for a way to get people off him.

In fact, they might take away some of his arrows like they did with Chris. Some of the arrows do feel a bit redundant in some situations. Or at least change up his flips.
 
Read the last few pages. Ain't no way on God's beautiful green earth this game comes out in August or September. I expect this game to have a November release date and then get delayed until February.

Willing to bet on it?

I bet the game's release date will be stated to be before September 30th 2017 for at least one region in the world.

No way, we've barely seen anything from it and it's coming out in 5 or less months? HELL NO! What do you wanna bet?

Twenty Dollars. Shake on it? Just to confirm, this is the ANNOUNCED release date not the actual. So if they announce September but then some earthquake happens and they miss the date, I still win because of the announcement.

That's the rate I gave Tripon too in FGW (for a different but still similar bet).

I don't do money bets over the internets. That's just too much work, I'm too lazy for that.
 
Neo, you're making me nervous. If Infinite is out Q1 next year, then that means DMC5 is either coming late this year, or it's not coming in Q1 of next year. I'm starting to fear a scenario where the RE7 DLC is the only major Capcom release late this year.

I saw this, but we already got several pages from that. I guess then the ten pages were from the people in the Americas all waking up getting home from work.
 
I hope Marvel doesn't force a cinematic universe influence onto the roster. I'm so tired of having the Avengers shoved into every orifice on a regular basis... As a kid, all I wanted was more superheroes around the clock, now I'm living in the Twilight Zone where any time I see the "lowest-common denominator" ones like the Avengers, I'm instantly annoyed in the same way I am when my neighbour's dog starts barking.

Onto happier news, the art style is really nice, and thankfully not conforming to the standards of anyone other than Capcom. And I am reserving judgment until I see more than a handful of characters, obviously, the above is just my paranoia talking. I'll still buy it regardless, but an original, varied roster vs. "the kids and dad can see a movie then play this game" roster will simply determine whether I go in excited or jaded :P

I'm pretty open though, in terms of who they include, as long as it's not well over 50% "major" MCU on the one side. I'd like to see a revamped Shuma-Gorath and Omega Red (highly unlikely), and maybe some love for the Dark Reign era Thunderbolts (again, unlikely).

Well, as you can tell from my avatar, I do love the 'Bolts. Songbird pops up a lot in lists lately. Sadly, these lists have all been fake but maybe there's hope?
 
Jake would be a ton of fun and Supaidaman would be a fun rival to Jin Saotome but it would never happen

Maybe Punisher 2099 could be a Frank color/skin

I wish they would go for some outside of the box characters.

It should be the other way around , Jake can fly and do other things.

Would be pretty cool to have a non-mobile Contest of Champions fighting game. Then they could pull all different kinds of shenanigans.
