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

Ghost Rider didnt use the bike at all during special moves right, only in the super? Can easily be replaceable with a car for Reyes and use the same moveset. Like, I think only the most hardcore GR fans would even care, it would still be GR in the game
 
Miles could have something similar to street fighter in a stun meter. It wouldn't be particularly easy but if you manage to sneak enough venom strikes into his combo, it will eventually stun the opponent.

Put in RedHulkVenem Ghostrider
 
If it isn't Blaze or Ketch, I wouldn't want Ghost Rider in.
Given the supposed MCU focus of this game, Robbie Reyes being the Ghost Rider of this game is a very real possibility (if we even get a Ghost Rider).
That said, Johnny Blaze is in the MCU, but he isn't the main Ghost Rider of the MCU.

Miles could have the Chun-Li SFV super ;)
Actually, I'd love for Miles to be a huge Chun-Li fanboy just to justify him using Chun's CA in Contest of Champions.
 
would Luke really play like Juggernaut? I mean, yeah...he headbutts people but from the comics I've read with him in them he doesn't seem the type to head crush someone.

I'd think someone big and heavy like Kurse, Executioner, Rhino, Iron Monger, the Destroyer, maybe...but Luke...

Or Hammerhead...because that's basically his shtick

On the other hand I do recall Luke tackling Purple Man in a thunderbolts issue in a manner sorta similar to Juggernaut....ah I don't know

I was speaking on the armor aspect of Luke Cage more so than the play style.

Oh you,
Kabam

Hey, could Chun Li have some sort of dialogue referencing this like Ryu with Deadpool? :P

Ah, I see

Luke Cage should just attack people with furniture and other objects he pulls out of thin air. Throwing a couch at your face, slamming you into a table that appears out of nowhere :P, etc.
 
Yo, Screw Rashid, Street fighter guy should be Urien. And then Have Members of Marvel's Illuminati be confused about Street fighter's Illuminati

And have Iron Fist and other characters who Know luke cage, compare Urien's metallic skin to luke cage.
 
I do want Luke, but his powers are kind of bland, so you have to make up a lot more for him. Not that it couldn't be done. I think him sort of getting objects out of nowhere and attacking with them makes enough sense. Like having a extended reach attack with a power line, or immobilizing someone by wrapping them up in metal junk. Still, if he had to steal someone's moveset, he'd probably be better off with Colossus' than Juggernaut's, though he'd look out of character with either.

The more "bland" characters usually allow for more creativity because you're forced to come up with moves, rather than trying to translate existing moves. I'm sure Luke would be really cool in the end if he gets in. Plus, I'm looking forward to his theme song.
 
No offense to Miles, but if we were getting a second Spider-MAN, I'd choose

Poisoned talons, fangs, accelerated vision, gliding...would be pretty fun.

or

claws, stealth (like miles), and then....the other

or maybe Noir, who'd be a less refined, gun-toting spider that fires splattering webs at people
 
Bring back C. Viper

*ducks*
No need to duck, Viper has earned her place in Mahvel. She is Mahvel as fuck and is perhaps one of the most universally liked characters from MvC3.

I think Capcom nails Marvel characters in thier games better than FOX does in thier Marvel movies.
Pretty low bar to work with TBH. Aside from Professor X and Magneto, the X-Men in the latest slew of X-Men movies are stripped of most of the magic that made me like them in the first place (and comics, as they were my entry point).

I feel like the roster requests feature characters that are dramatically more irrelevant than what I saw pre-MvC3.
Many of which were irrelevant in the first place.

I say fully knowing Megaman.EXE is one of my most desired characters.
 
When I imagine how Luke could play, I think of the gauntlets from DMC. Specifically Ifrit from DMC1 and Eryx from DmC.

Outside of that, I think there's a lot that could be done with him. He could have moves like tackles, slams, headbutts, ground pounds, surface-bounding moves, picking up and swinging large objects (like a telephone pole), etc. It could be cool if he used his invulnerability in his moves, like say holding a lit hand grenade to his opponent's face and having it explode, or smacking them with small rockets. Or give his moves lots of armor.

In terms of flair, say if he used a baseball bat for one of his moves, it could break every time, or when using the heavy punch/kick version. Or have him slam or trap people with dustbins or something.

The post is a bit all over the place, I know, but I think Luke has a decent amount of potential.
 
If Luke gets in then I see him as a new Juggernaut or Colossus. Dude with super armour who's all about getting in your face and beating you down.

And his 70s costume as an alt.

I mean, the saner Luke Cage moveset would be lots of headbutts, lots of punching (maybe something like Dudley's machine gun blow?). He'd also have something where he'd pull up a bit of the ground and smash it over the opponents head. Maybe a few tackle command grabs where he tackles his oppponent then pummels them into the ground.

Maybe a super like Nemesis's Biohazard Rush, referencing his overall tanky-ness

cage IS bulletproof, why not have him reflect projectiles?
 
I mean if Capcom can make Haggar or Frank West hype shit, I wouldn't worry about bland powersets of characters.

Pretty much, yeah. When TvC was able to turn Classic!Roll into one of the most fun/hype movesets I've ever played, it does plenty to remind me of just how much talent Capcom's designers can have.

It's just one of the few things I'm willing to give almost complete trust with, in that whoever gets chosen will get represented well.
 
I've never seen him do that in comics...but sure.

Oh yeah, he could have tons of counters just by tanking things.
But I could see Marvel running into an issue of explaining how Luke Cage can be hurt by other characters. It's not like everyone has a Judas bullet or Vibranium lying around.
 
They never explain issues when it comes to invulnerability. You just sort of go with it. Hulk is super durable and has super fast acting regeneration, but Cap can punch him out in this sort of game.

Cage might have a special block animation, ala Blackheart, where he just doesn't seem to be guarding, and a super where he gets Hyper armor, and he should be good. Maybe a counter where he just tanks the incoming hit rather than dodging or deflecting it like most other counters.

Him taking out bombs and blowing himself up along with the opponent seems to be a bit too villainous, plus he never uses explosives.

How does anyone beat Galactus in MvC3 by punching him? How the heck is Chris/Wesker/Deadpool/Jill hurting Dormamu, Shuma-Gorath or Ghost Rider with guns? It's a fighting game. I mean, if Luke Cage is in, he'd probably have some moves with super armour, but that's about it.

Didn't Maximilian say this game is being developed wholly by Capcom since over a decade ago? That interview at PSX also indicated the producer (Michael Evans) goes to Japan to help with direction over there. I still think we need clarification over this but hey, at least we have a new MvC game.

First fighting game in over a decade not outsourced to an outside studio, yes. However, it is being produced by Marvel Games and Capcom USA as well. Although to be fair, if it's a Street Fighter game, or involves Street Fighter characters, Capcom USA has to be involved due to weird rights issues.

The majority of SFV's development was in-house as well. Dimps was only responsible for roughly 1/3 of development.

The Marvel people would be pretty dumb if that was an issue.

...what? This is a fighting game. Did they care about Phoenix?
 
I believe the only thing they had a major fit over was that Doctor Strange's moves were faithfully said and his movements when casting spells were comic faithful.


If they cared about other things, Spider-man (for example) would finally wallcrawl. And he'd have spider-sense pop up throughout the entire fight automatically avoiding most of the damage dealt. Oh and shehulk would have to explain where she's getting all her lampposts

AND with Strange, I'm pretty sure the eye of agamotto isn't an offensive weapon at all, the vishanti's summoning doesn't normally result in a pillar of light, etc..
 
Speaking of models, seeing as the SF designs are likely gonna be pulled from SFV whenever possible (as shown by Ryu), are you guys cool with Akuma looking like this (if he gets in)?

I'm cool with it in SFV but I think crossover games should feature classic costumes. It would be fine as an alt/dlc though.

We'd probably get Groot over Drax. Though if Ryce's sources are on the money & Groot isn't his own character, I could see him mixed with Rocket & Drax's slot going to Ms. Marvel.

Ryu is not the same model it's somewhat different to his SFV self looks closer to UMVC3 Ryu with tweaked face. Also, Akuma has classic outfit too (thank heavens).

Rather they just keep Akuma out if they gonna keep the NEW puke like SFV design.
 
Just throwing this out there but I always thought Spiral was a cool character but hated the way she played in COTA/MVC2, I'd love for a modern Spiral that actually uses her swords in melee attacks. Even though this will never happen

I'd like spiral to come back. But she's tied to xmen stuff right?
 
She's Mojoverse and Xforce, so yes

It's dumb but that's who my sister would play when we played COTA. She beat my ass every time with her.

Real Talk, I wish Fox wasn't sitting on the mutants. I'd love a rerelease of COTA Arcade version. I'd be all over that. I miss that game especially the music. Omega Red's Theme was ace.

I don't care either way. But obviously they'll go with the classic design and not something newer. I'd be very surprised if they actually used the new SFV design.
 
if they were smart they'd sell standard akuma costume, SFV akuma, cyber akuma, mother fucking pocket akuma, and every other akuma that exists as cosmetic DLC


because that's easy money
