Dante just has a ridiculous number of moves which translates into options for every situation. That's why I wanted to play him in 3, he was billed as having the most special moves of any fighting game character (probably not true). I never even played the DMC series.

You should at least play DMC3.

Can’t wait till we get Nero and I can run Team Uncle Dante.

I'd prefer this over Vergil, maybe not Lady though.

 

[nded]

There is supposed to be a costume store? First time I am hearing of such a thing.

I mean yeah, they're going to try to sell costumes.

 

[brian!]

The thing about dante is that it's not just ppl playing him that have to put in work. He's got slow normals but w/ proper spacing he is really good at punishing blind aggression. Some reactions to him atm are knee jerk, but with the mvci system and numerous bugs favoring him he def top 3 afaik

 

[JayEH]

I'd prefer this over Vergil, maybe not Lady though.

I’m off the lady hype train after seeing all these gun characters already announced for dlc. She’d still be cool and definitely more stylish than a black widow but I’d rather bring back trish as the female dmc rep now.

Spoiler

Also I’d love to see the Gloria costume back.

 

[wille9]

What video?

Anyway Dante already has a weakness which is what he always had. His fastest normal is 8 frame.

Amaterasu's standing L hit confirm at 3 frames, she would be a problem for D, if she were in the game.

I continue to not understand the OTG rules in this game

 

[patchday]

Which version of MvC2 are you looking for physical? The Dreamcast version is not super expensive, last I checked. In the like $30-40 range.

Edit: Nm, just looked it up on eBay. Crazy how expensive it has gotten.

I am looking to pay for it on xbox 360 or ps3. I am planning to just play it locally with friends/kids

 

[Coda]

Can’t wait till we get Nero and I can run Team Uncle Dante.

I've been hoping for an Uncle Dante costume since the game has been out. At this point anything is better than his current look.

 

[Sigmaah]

Y'all are gonna get sparda again and YOU'RE GONNA LOVE IT.

 

[patchday]

I've also been hoping Capcom ports MvC2 to Switch as well. Would also pay for mvc3 on Switch. But prefer mvc2 though

 

[Anth0ny]

I wonder what the deal is when it comes to releasing other Marvel Vs games outside of Infinite and UMVC3. You'd think Capcom would put out Marvel 2 and Origins on current platforms if they could.

 

[Neoxon]

I'd prefer this over Vergil, maybe not Lady though.

Having Team JYB alone would make Nero worth it.....unless they recast Nero.

 

[AWizardDidIt]

I assume there's a separate licencing deal they'd have to make with Marvel to do this.

Besides, Capcom can't even be bothered to put out easily accessible versions of SF 2, 3, or Alpha on steam/PC. Feels like Capcom is adverse to easy money sometimes.

You think Disney/Marvel wants to let Capcom put out a game on current gen consoles that heavily features X Men and has very little to do with the MCU?

We were supremely lucky to get UMVC3 on current gen system.

I continue to not understand the OTG rules in this game

This is using a glitch which is resetting HSD. It essentially resets your combo hit stun allowing you to basically do long combos like that.

 

[Neoxon]

Marvel lifted the X-Men part of the ban, so that may not be a problem now. Plus Marvel never had a problem with older games featuring Fox characters (see the Deadpool game).

 

[Dahbomb]

Marvel lifted the X-Men part of the ban, so that may not be a problem now.

Lifting the ban doesn't mean they are going to put out stuff that promotes X Men more than MCU. MVC2 is basically X Men vs random ass Capcom characters, this is not a product that Marvel is particularly interested in promoting.

 

[Spade]

If they really wanted to start making money with the Marvel property, they'd re-release MVC2 on Steam/Consoles with online.

Shit, they just read this and put it on their "Never to do" list it seems. This would be ideal though (for them to re-release). Anybody know if they have the ability to actually re-list titles like MvC2 and Origins? Just wondering.

 

[Jawmuncher]

Why MVC2 and MVC:Origins at minimum haven't be relisted on XBL and PSN is beyond me.

You are trying to make me hate Disney aren't you? I really want to play MvC2 on-the-go on my Switch ;(

how the hell are those haggar relaunches working? characters spin out when i do way less shit than that.

edit: oh wait this is the hit stun reset tech right? just checked and kbr says its the beam super that resets it.

Wait for psx 17 i gues...

There will be no recasting Nero...Really want him in this game.

Blame Marvel, as the ban comes from the CEO.

On the Switch? At best, you'll get an updated version of Infinite if Capcom ends up releasing one.

 

[ZeroCDR]

They got to port UMvC3 which is still heavy on X-Men and some FF. I don't know why they wouldn't negotiate for MvC2 also, just a matter time and whatever they worked out. I wouldn't put the game out there now with Infinite struggling, maybe in a year or so.

 

[Doctrine Dark]

At this point, I'd rather them just work on getting this game right. I'd love MVC2 on PS4/XB1/PC, though.

 

[FSLink]

On the Switch? At best, you'll get an updated version of Infinite if Capcom ends up releasing one.

If only. Capcom's Switch support has been hella suspect. We'll probably get a half assed port of like MvC1 with none of the Origins stuff (online, unlockables, Marvel Super Heroes, etc).

I'm not worried about infinites/TODs in this because of counter switching. The beam super gave like a full bar when he used it. The real problem is infinites like spider man's which you can't tag out of

 

[racketpunch]

The HSD reset glitch or whatever also resets OTGs? Kinda lost because I thought those were two complete different things. Sounds like it's resetting more than just the HSD.

Except people are going to get really good at punishing counter switch and then we'll be in trouble when they just mix up your incoming character and keep going

 

[Negaduck]

I'd love to be able to take a break from mvci to play a modern console/steam mvc2 with net code.

 

[SixMachine]

Just like Guilty Gear or any other game with a burst, people will eventually have to learn when to pick their spot to counter switch out, it's not meant to be fool proof. Usually if they are comboing in the air, they cannot get back to the ground fast enough to get the incoming character if you switch in then, and it is only something like 5 frames until they can block once switching in (I think that is the timing for a normal switch, I don't know if the time is longer for a counterswitch).

Ppl are improving with their counter switches too, a lot of ppl hold it down out of panic (including me) but timing it correctly is gonna be something that everyone has to learn

I played a gaffer yesterday, dunno his forum name, but he was great with ctagging in megaman when i was comboing in the air, helped me understand it a bit better

 

[NEO0MJ]

Man, I'm trying to learn fly combos but I can't wrap my head around it yet. Ant good guides on it? Most just give the inputs.
Also, who do you time when you dash downwards with Ultron and using his "Melt!" attack?

I started learning Ultron's last night and it's pretty much just HP->Dash->HP->Dash etc. as fast as you can. The starter I was using was cr.HP launcher directly into flight which leaves Ultron a little bit underneath the opponent, so I was holding up-right while dashing until I was about level with the opponent.

 

[brian!]

Try learning it with ultron, he's one of the more easier characters in the game. You can mash dash for the dash->hp and dont forget to lp after the fly input. Once you get it it'll be like riding a bike

It's easy to adjust for height weirdness. If they're too high, air dash up, if they're about right, air dash up forward, and if they're too low, air dash forward. As you get more comfortable with it you can start adjusting it on the fly depending on the confirm.

 

[NEO0MJ]

I have been trying to do it with Ultron. Maybe I should stop for now as it's getting pretty late and try going back to it tomorrow.

 

[brian!]

Yeah take ur time, it's only a matter of time before you get it down

 

[JeTmAn81]

The HP flight loop stuff can take some practice. I picked it up almost instantly because I played Magneto in UMVC3 so I was used to the actions needed.

Nobody likes CapCom at gamefaqs.


Regarding porting marvel 2...they probably only ported umvc3 to get people hyped for infinite but really all it did was show people how lacking Infinite was in comparison.

Porting mvc origins and 2 would be big money but they don’t even need more comparisons for infinite.

 

[OsirisBlack]

So I'm not the only one that wants Asura, good to know. I said I'd main Asura and Thanos before this game dropped .... give me Asura damn it.
