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

How about for crazy, "what the heck are you thinking Capcom?" choices....

The Answer

I believe his powers are the ability to do anything...but maybe since his powers have a time-limit in the comics he could be a mokujin-style character...but one who's moves change throughout the battle.

Wow, that would be both an annoying character to fight and play as...

I don't know what Marvel's doing with him these days but I think Slapstick would be a neat "WTF" addition from the Marvel side. He's a superhero who's special ability is doing wacky cartoon shit, which fits MVC like a glove.
Who is this Freakazoid character? Seriously, anyone else see it?
 
A cool stage would be a whiteboard or something and having the level slowly being drawn out and colored.

It'll probably be too distracting for evo but it would be awesome.
 
I've just realized that with the game being 2v2 we probably won't see characters with weird mechanics like Phoenix, Phoenix Wright, and Frank West, where they were dependent on their teammates to power up and properly function.

I think, if anything, we'll see something like Tatsunoko, where Megaman Volnutt had his weapon swapping and Polimar had his little emblem thingy powerups going on.

Couldn't frank just use the tagging mechanic to gain his levels?
Frank Combo start>tag combo>frank air combo>Camera OTG

You got me on the Phoenix one though.

Probably. If any of them would stay as is it'd definitely be Frank as he's not as dependent on assists to level up the way Phoenix/Wright are.

I'd argue both of them need to be redesigned a bit anyway. Changing the mechanics may have been for the best, since they'd have to be if they made it in
 
The Answer was a pretty cool character. I loved the issues where he fought Spidey. When the counter to Spidey was greater stamina to take his hits, he adapted it. When he needed the strength to tear his webs off, he adapted it. That power is awesome.

He seems like a really underused character, probably because he's so powerful, yet at the same time, limited. Maybe he could be a NPC boss fight in something....
 
Today I just wanted Moonstone but I realized that Captain Marvel's already there, so instead I just want Shadowcat.


Marvel's premier X-Man Guardian of the Galaxy, Kitty Pryde's phasing capabilities could bring some unique mechanics to the game.

Perhaps she could have some sort of command dodge or be able to burn metre to fall out of an enemy combo?

And of course she could have some attacks involving Lockheed, Kitty's fire-breathing, dragon-like, alien companion. The X-Men used to be weird. I miss the X-Men being weird.

Eh, Karla would play more like Shadowcat than Captain Marvel. (all that phasing) Plus with two Moonstones she can chuck around black holes and fool around with gravity

You could also throw in tons of taunt/counters because she loves being an annoying pain to everyone and it kinda fits with her natural psychological manipulation.

would love to see them incorporate her big bang from MAA

Agreed with the lockjaw part
Would you give her Star Lord's stuff?
 
After re watching a bunch of Marvel movies, and binging comics explained youtube channel, I really want strange and star lord. Realistically from capcom all I want is amaterasu, unrealistically saki from tvc.

The joke had layers.
I'm doing a "today I just want Moonstone" later

Also, yeah, just give her Star-Lord's rocket boots and guns and don't include him 'cause he sucks.

It's not like Kitty is gonna be in the base roster, so might as well go Star-Lord.
 
I don't know about that ever happening. I see Star Lord making it in
hopefully Nova Richard Rider coming right after that


So...for Spider-verse the inheritors....kinda...okay they were all pretty bland, appearance-wise
mayyyybe not evil Santa
.

But Karn....I dunno. Something about the Big Daddy head and the spear...I don't know. How would people feel if Karn made the cut?
 
Too many characters that i wanna see from marvel, from green goblin to the thing. Capcom side Sigma, Protoman, X, and Zero.
 
I want War Machine. Take the Dark Reign run as inspiration and he would be a completely different beast than Iron Man or Ultron.

I would't be upset if they added Karn. If we could only get one Spidey villain hough I would want Kraven.
 
The only WTF character for me would be dark reign war machine or him with his alien armor as default. Found both of those to be two very odd takes for my favorite character.
 
Yeah, the bias for the way a character looks is mostly going to err on the most iconic look. The "latest version" that is not a part of a company-wide shift is almost always temporary and chances are better that they'll be alt costumes.

In the case of Nova, Sam Alexander was supposed to be a company-wide shift for Nova that ended up falling flat on its face. Even in 2015, Marvel Heroes was given the green-light by Marvel to make Richard Rider the default Nova.

Yeah, Sam just isn't as cool as Richard.

Then again, Marvel still succeeded with Miles & definitely Kamala, so it's not all bad. If Riri will catch on like Miles & Kamala or go the way of Sam remains to be seen, but I'm interested to see how it pans out.
 
Wish we had an idea if when to expect the next reveal
MvC3 had characters announced at CES in 2011, and that's the earliest event. CES is kind of weird though, gaming's presence there is kind of diminished, and I dunno if they'll bring the game there because it's just been announced.

PAX South/Taipei Game Show/RE7 launch are the next logical opportunities, but I wouldn't start counting down the days for any of those. We'll have something around GDC almost certainly, but I figure we'll see something beforehand as well.

Any chance @ an ECT reveal this weekend?
Actually, forgot about this as well. I wonder if we'll get something at Winter Brawl?

I hope Riri catches on. I love her design. However, I haven't read any of the books yet. It's hard for me to get into the Iron Man books. I'm more interested in the team, solo meta, street level or magic books.

Riri may be joining the Champions, so you could get your chance to read more about her there.
 
Jump Festa starts tomorrow, but I'm not sure we can expect anything.

Maybe just an official Japanese announcement that reiterates on the most recent reveal (and maybe just confirms X's Japanese VA being on board) would be the most I'd expect.

Getting Spider-man's unveiling out of the way sooner, so that we wouldn't have to deal with shenanigans like last time, would just be extra nice.
 
I want Ms. America in if she hulk doesn't make it. Hopefully she hulks makes it though with some new moves.

I want Ms America in either way. She's a well designed character with a powerset that would translate really well (imo) to a fighter and she's one of the more popular new up-and-comers in the Marvel U that Marvel seems at least decently interested in pushing.

I actually liked the whole "Spiderman won't be in MvC3" stuff. It's hilarious in retrospect because it was so obvious he'd be in, but at the same time there were perfectly solid reasons he wouldn't be.

Made even more hilarious since the whole fiasco ignited hopes that Mega Man was just being saved for an event like Jump Festa.
