There's a stream for UMvC3 going on here:

From the archive it looks like its a Kuwaiti stream. The quality's alright and its much better than anything I can put out at the moment.

Well, my worst fears in terms of Nova's future in comics have come to pass. Marvel's big preview issue featured a kid Nova, probably not Richard Rider, muttering the words "epic fail" after a galaxy wide disaster came to pass. Damn you Jeph Loeb...It may be a kneejerk reaction, but if this is the Nova they're gonna be building up in 2012 it does not look good. At least I'll have fun with riding with Dick in the game next week.
I was legitimately giving the issue the chance and was pretty hyped for it all month, but dammit if this wasn't a shitty lead-in.

to be honest, back then I hated old-school RPG's in general for similar reasons so you are partly right.

actually im a massive reader...It's actually one of the reasons I find text heavy video games annoying. If I want to read, I read something of substance.
likewise, as a film major, I find "cinematic" video games to be pale imitations of the real thing and would just prefer my games to be action packed with a deep level of interactivity.
If I want a cinematic experience with an engaging and multi faceted narrative, Ill watch a good film. No video game ive ever played can stand up to even the crappest films in terms of story progression, art, pacing and character development, so why try?
I just want my games to be ...umm..."gamey". Thats what they are good at and that's what draws me to the medium for entertainment.

Oh, lol. Nope, missed it.
Did you guys see that Chun Li OTG combo in that Max video? :O
Also:
FChamp after seeing that RR can use 5 meters in one combo "WOW THAT IS SO BROKEN!!!!! OMFG!!!! WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "
Wesker's walk speed is one of the slowest in the game.. yeah like that ever held him back. This isn't SF.
No MM Buster for Frank West in LVL5? SON I AM DISAPPOINT!!!

Akuma but I agree walk speed doesn't matter at all unless MAYBE you are Morrigan or Arthur who don't have proper dashes.Kimosabae said:

After watching the Assist Me, I'm now hyped for Frank. I hadn't heard anywhere else that photography gains more experience attached to combos. This creates unique new meta game. But unlike say, Phoenix Wright, this "gimmick" is entirely under player control, non random, and very straight forward.
Frank also looks as if he's not a helpless punching bag until he activates beast mode at levels 4/5 - if you get to at least level 2 he seems OK.
Damn but I have to give it up for Capcom having truly created a diverse cast in this game. So many unique characters, and different systems. Even characters who are cut from a similar archetype are very different in their effective playstyles.

watched it a while back... but from memory, it looks like it might be a corner specific combo. just regular headstomps into standard air series? she can probably get fancier midscreen otgs, but it would be harder than vipers execution wise, as she'd need to dash cancel those headstomps. hitstun deterioation seems to hit hard in this game too. at least viper has her ex moves to negate the air recovery for her jump loops.Dahbomb said:
I think even Phoenix can do it I saw some video where she did like 4 Phoenix Rage's in a row or something.
I don't know what to think about Frank West. I don't think it's that hard to get him to LVL5 as long as you don't get your point character bodied. But at the same time I don't think LVL5 is THAT godlike outside of damage on block normals and that range. I seriously think there is more to him in that level. He is no where near Wright level.

Yay streaming! Looks like Iron Fist can string more than 3 rekkas after all 
That means people don't have to stay as technical with him if they can just rekka pop for combo.
EDIT: Oooooooh....major problem to Spidey OTG move...its hard to hit in the corner because from corner on a jump back into the line it connects to the wall instead. Thats gonna need a dash back and jump to use properly. Have to remember that since his combos corner folks pretty fast.

i'd much rather fight a frank west than a phoenix wright. in order to level up frank, you actually have to get in and land combos. you're rewarded for opening up the opponent and landing good combos. phoenix wright on the other hand, you get rewarded for playing lame. when you finally do level up, it forces you're opponent to play lame/turtle until the timer expires (it expires, right?), at which point the process repeats. no fun at all.

I guess if you consider zoning and controlling space lame, sure.
I don't know if I have issues with Wright yet, but if I do it won't come from how he gets turnabout mode. It'll have everything to do with how stupidly overpowered they made a gimmick.
But that's MAHVEL(3).

It does expire, but there's no bar. I believe it's 20 in-game seconds? Does not drain when swapped out.
I don't know if the timer starts counting down from where it left off when PW comes back into play.

lolwut? Free full screen unblockable for two bars? I find that highly unlikely.

FWIW, I actually had a short conversation with the lead writer of the strategy guide about crossover counters and he informed me that none of the new characters have counters with invincible start-up. So that's probably possible, but who knows how easy it'd be.GuardianE said:

No, only certain crossover counters are completely invincible. Several can be stuffed. The ones that are invincible off the top of my head are X-23, Thor, and Jill. Crescent Scythe and Mighty Smash, forgot Jill's assist that is invincible on crossover counter.
Thor's is extremely dangerous since it gives him a free combo.

I believe every counter is invincible until the character touches the ground. After that, it varies. Some have enough invincibility to allow you to cancel into an invincible hyper. A few have invincibility all the way through their start-up, which is what that thread lists.
Supposedly, the list in the first post of that thread is virtually unchanged in Ultimate.

its not real zoning though. i have no problem with characters like arthur who control space with the purpose of dealing damage. phoenix wright isn't about controlling space in the same sense, moreso just putting up a shield or keeping away just to find evidence whether it deals damage or not.Skilletor said:
