Are there any more exhibitions?
Fiending for dat Marvel? ;P
They are going to have a combo exhibition where the people decide the best combo. After that there is a special announcement that people think is going to be some e sports Marvel thing.

I just don't understand how they ruined Dante's theme. It sounds as if they recorded it underwater.

Dante's theme sounds like a battle track from DmC. Yuck.

I'm still struck by how undercooked everything non-gameplay related is in this game. That UI is nothing short of terrible. What were they thinking with the character select?
So I wonder if Marvel's plan to discredit X-men (or rather downplay) is working. When I talk to friends everyone speaks well of the MCU. But if I bring up X-men all anyone seems to remember is X-Men apocalypse. Personally I bought all the x-men movies I like them a lot but I really, really love Avengers and wanted to see all of them in the roster asap
Some of my buds do speak well of Old Man Logan tho that was solid *

'cause Juri's theme still has a sick beat
This game is actually harder to follow than Marvel 3 though, and we are on day 0.
That whole "we're simplifying it for casuals" angle was the biggest load of horse shit. Kids going onto online this week literally won't know what hit them.

It makes me really appreciate how much work was done with 3 and Ultimate.

Got my copy from GameStop a few hours ago can't wait to dive in 👅
Vanilla 3's credits were amazing
I been saying this for months now. This game is going to be harder to follow than MVC3. People said really false stuff like "OMFG Marvel 3 6 CHARACTERS ON SCREEN AT ONE TIME!! TOO MUCH CHAOS FOR ME!!! ASSISTS ARE WACK" when MVCI has the same amount of characters on screen at once as Marvel 3 and it has the added complexity of the Storms.

Capcom should have gone the Sonic Mania route and hired an indie composer to arrange the soundtrack in the style of the old MvC/CPS2 sound. This soundtrack is straight garbage and close to so me of the worst I've heard from a Capcom fighting game. Tatsunoko vs. Capcom was the ace, and old MvC3 had a few gems here and there.

Yeah, I was just playing UMVC3 again on my PS4 before I tuned into this exhibition, and I'm thinking the entire UI and the flatness of the presentation is taking over as worst component of the game instead of character models. Mind, I still think some of the character models are bad, but there's a complete lack of fanfare to most of the presentation coming out of UMVC3 that it's kind of a big bummer.
Like I mentioned in the review thread... No pulsing/shaking X-factor (I know X-Factor is out, but they could've done something interesting with the Stone meter), no comic book style font face for combo readouts, no comic panel style presentation in the menus, no layered UI elements like the numbers designating your meter power level, etc... It's all just so straight forward. Bland font, the ugliness of the character models is highlighted by the portraits, the Infinity Stone readout is flat and boring.
UMVC3 feels like a vibrant celebration of Versus and the franchises it encompasses. Infinite feels like a prototype.
Hope Capcom can improve this later on, maybe even alter some character models for the better, too. I know they're kinda hurting financially or maybe their management is kinda poor, I don't know.
Roster at launch... Kind of a bummer, definitely feels like it could have been better, despite the inclusion of a few cool newcomers (obligatory: WHERE ARE THE X-MEN)
Some of the character models (including some fan favorites)... definitely a bummer.
Presentation and UI's complete lack of hype/enthusiasm as a means of feeding back the excitement of a Versus game... absolute bummer.

It's probably the whole online qualifiers thing for capcom cup.

I'm assuming the big announcement is just Sigma and Black Panther gameplay with release date and perhaps the renders of the other upcoming characters.
I'm hoping they overhaul a lot of things in the game like they did with UMvC3.
