Arena fighter fans to 2D fans rn

Why?

And for the record you guys can't blame me for this 'arena fighter' thread turn like the other ones
Maybe it's a Marvel/Sonic The Fighters crossover with no capcom characters
 
There has been a couple of disturbing posts feeling ok or curious if it were to happen.

Most distressing.

I mean, I'd at least be curious to see what that would be. Doesn't mean I want that though.

I doubt it'll be arena though. They can't possibly go that far from MVCs roots. It just doesn't seem like a smart decision in any way. It would piss off the hardcore community and probably wouldn't attract any more newcomers if it were 2D.
 
My hype levels are from best to worst

-If it has Regina it can be whatever it wants
-3v3 MvC
-2v2 MvC
-arena game
-3D fighter
-Marvel Only

I will say it needs to stay above the 2v2 or higher line for me to be there day one.
 
What I love the most about this thread is that we started with Marvel vs Capcom 3.2 and now we are almost reaching "not marvel vs capcom" territory
 
Reveal will be an exhibition of Chris Evans vs RDJ playing the game with their characters. Cap's assist will be Falcon, who'll be caught in a Happy Birthday and die, to much hilarity.
 
Alright, guys.... hear me out:

What if... Capcom convinced Marvel to make a crossover game with DC comics for Marvel vs Capcom 4 (now Marvel vs DC)?

How horrible would this crossover be?

My wishlist:

Marvel:
Taskmaster
Howard The Duck
Spider-Gwen
Tony Hawk
Captain America

DC:
Superman
Batman
Wackman
Rey Mysterio
Apocalypse

Real Talk, even though both probably wouldn't be that good at playing. That would be a pretty hype way to reveal it. Especially since it would catch movie news attention to more casuals.

Another idea is if this is How they reveal how the MCU captain Marvel will look. That would be all over movie news.
 
well who's fault is that you Pocket Stan :p

IF ONLY we were reaching "Pocket Fighter 2" territory =(

The funny part is that there are rumors for being more casual but capcom don't know how to make casual fighters so this will probably be as casual as MvC3 or Tatsunoko vs Capcom =P
 
24 characters? That's really limited as well.

24 characters + an assist roster? most of the 12 marvel characters will have to be original instead of holdovers from the X-Men/FF roster in old marvel? its a lot of work. I think having an assist roster helps that to a large extent.

I also know that if 'reboot' is to happen, DLC is going to be a big focus of it, and characters will likely be coming out in waves of 2. Expect a roster of 24 to hit 36 before the end of its first year.
 
The only reason why it turned to 3D Arena fighter is because Team Ninja's involvement. We have no idea if they are or aren't involved.

If they are in on it they could be :
1) Making the game (track record for 3d fighters/ninja gaiden) OR
2) Supplying characters

I mean if we are knocking out the X-Men/FF anything is possible at this point
 
I still don't buy the 24 characters. I'm putting my money on 30.

If they're gonna cater to the casuals, they're gonna look at MKX.

That roster had 29 at launch, because of teams, you probably wanna make it 15-15 each side. So it equal (though I know mvc1 was unequal).

The easiest way to appeal to casuals is a story mode and a big roster. Those are the go to check marks it seems like nowadays for that crowd.
 
Crazy when a brand new fighter with 24 characters is "bad."

Just...crazy.

People want so much in their fighting games. I just wonder how it's feasible to expect so much.
 
This game is going to have no superheroes in it. Every character is a bat named Henry.

Preorder the Genesis version and play as General Chaos (exclusey DLC)


Enzo, go ahead and put me up on that tasty list of yours. Two z's, one t.

I personally don't see a smaller roster as bad so long as the other modes compensate and such. I really just want max diversification. The higher the number the better chances for that.

But if they really are aiming at casuals, they see how many characters the game has over a lot of other things.
 
If the game really is a 2v2 fighter, then a smaller roster would make sense.

Soon as I heard the 2vs2 rumor, I assumed less characters. Hell, it made me even start wondering about the design process.

"You know, if we do 2vs2, we don't need to make as many characters. It'll be cheaper."
 
Killer Instinct launched with 8
Xrd launched with 17 after DLC
SFV launched with 16, 23 after Season 1 DLC

Killer instinct was a F2P model game so it could get away with it
Xrd is anime so that's already niche
We all know how the SFV launch went, though that can't all be attributed to the amount. But it might have been a small factor.

TBF you've also put your money on Regina for years

Money has been there so long it's gaining interest
