Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite |OT| Marvel vs. Capcom: 4 Female Characters
- Thread starter enzo_gt
- Start date
Some obscure veterans like Amaterasu might come back, but I honestly don't foresee any of the DLC Capcom newcomers coming from minor unrepresented games. We're going to get a small handful of characters pulled from Street Fighter, Resident Evil, Monster Hunter, Mega Man, Devil May Cry, and Darkstalkers, and that's it.
This can't be real right? I feel like r/Kappa's mistaken. I'll put the link in spoiler if you don't want to click it.
Title:
ONLY 8 players show up for Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite - Battle for the Stones, they're going straight to TOP 8.
Bracket: http://challonge.com/MGW_MvCi
The claim is that this is supposed to be a 64 man tourney and they got only 8 people.

EXACTLY 8 people show up? That seems a bit fishy to me.

Nah, it's real. SFV had like 28 or so.
MvC:I kind of gives new meaning to RTSD.

Another is combofiend in disguise
We had already talked about how that Milan tournament barely had enough ppl. That stone stuff should have been all in US, another blunder as clearly they expected the game to be a worldwide phenomenon and...welp...
At least there's a chance I can get Nero...nah but yeah I agree with both of these.
LMAO. Yeah if this keeps up they're killing it after this year.
What are you talking about?
This game already has 4 teleporters and their teleports are better than
Wesker's. His teleports are always a set distance and kinda laggy especially in the air.
Real problem with Wesker in this game would be that command grabs kinda scale too much and they nerfed wave dashing. He wouldn't perform too well in this game without some buffs.
Not having wolverine on the marvel side is literally the equivalent of capcom not having ryu in the base roster. Logan has been there from day one all the way back to children of the atom. Powerful forces were definitely at work keeping him off the roster. Capcom might have under delivered on their side of things too, but damn they at least had ryu and dante and finally answered the demand for X after MVC3 lacked ANY version of Mega Man.
It's a very unique case where like all of the characters are more popular than the series. I don't think I've seen anything like that before haha.
wtf are you talking about?

At least they got a rep into TvC
Nah they made Gene.
They all have set teleports relative to the opponent a la Dhalsim. Without a wide open screen and small characters Wesker's movement and gameplay style would be very difficult to make work in MvCI.
I often wonder that
I see your Hakan, and raise you:
A character older than WW?
You don't really understand development timelines, do you.
I honestly think the TvC Capcom side was better than MvC3 and MvC:I. Not UMVC3 though.
Batsu, Soki, Saki, an interesting Megaman moveset, Alex, Frank West before he was big, a Lost Planet Mech.
I mean in terms of representation and zaniness they totally nailed it with that game.
I thought Gene was before Vergil but I just checked and I got my years mixed up. Still though, Vergil > Gene.

Going by the "popular" franchises i'd guess
Street Fighter
Juri - Most popular SF4 newcomer
Rashid - Most popular pick for SFV rep
Resident Evil
- Wesker (Unless the teleportation really can't be reworked
- Leon just because people don't shut up about him
Monster Hunter
-Nothing. MH already encompasses different weapons in her movelist. Not leaving much room unless they pull from Monster Hunter Stories or something.
Mega Man
-Tron Bonne and no one else. Already hitting 3 MM characters and this would be the fourth. Doubt they push to 5.
Devil May Cry
- Vergil comes back
- Trish comes back
Nothing else to really work with outside maybe lady
Darkstalkers
- Felecia
-Hsien Ko
Just another usage of a lot of what was left over from UMVC3. Since the addition of those 2 basically covers the most popular characters from that series.
This would be my realistic expectations which is rather sad. Because if they end up being so reliant on returning characters. The capcom side will continue to be lacking. Hunter Sigma, X, and Jedah aren't enough to prop up the capcom side into hypeville.

Talking about good Capcpom characters and Rashid is yet to be mentioned SMH.
EDIT: only two minutes ago lol.

Yeah forgot about those. Was going off Ryce's list.
Felyne is ridiculously popular in Japan and is practically the company's mascot. It could easily have a unique moveset with a pickaxe, boomerang, bombs, traps, and bait drops that summon monsters. It'd be more like a cross between Rocket Raccoon, Viewtiful Joe, and MvC2 Jill than anything like Monster Hunter.

I wonder if the DLC characters in 2018 will exceed 6.

"Nothing else to really work with outside maybe lady"
Never heard of him
I thought about that. But I dunno. I mean it would give Marvel their own sort of Rocket Raccoon character. But at the same time I don't see them really pushing it. Then again we got firebrand so who knows.
I think this and perhaps what ryce said about character hit boxes or whatever it was. Might be why she might not come back.
If they're REALLY reliant on bringing back a lot of characters from UMVC3 I would hope so.
It's not difficult to reproduce, you just shorten his teleport distance if you actually need to.
And he wasn't great in UMVC3 either, he will be even worse in MVCI.
I think that was Keits, but I don't see how that could possibly be an issue in a game where Nemesis vs. Rocket Raccoon is possible.

Awesome that they used ScarJo Widow. Was never really a fan of the comic ones. Not liking that she was effectively ripped right out of the movies, design-wise, though.
Did somebody call me?

first time playing online in MVCI and already the salt cometh
1. How does he know you know real combos
2. Why does he think you're using auto combo instead (it shows auto combo on the screen if you are)
