I expect UMvC3 to do incredible on Vita.. provided Vita solves all it's sales issues soon. It's huge for them to be a launch title in every region, and almost always provides for great sales in the long run. It will help Capcom toot their own horn with PR regarding UMvC3 later on.
They changed it on the fly, didn't they?
It makes sense.
I saw this coming the moment I realized that that was the default setting. I always, always check for this when I sit down for a match at a UMvC3 tournament. Smart dev decisions.
Hyper meter. The fastest way to gain meter is to attack the opponent, and it's used for hyper combos, DHCs, team hypers, crossover counters, and snap backs.
While FADC EX Seismo is really good, it only works if the other person is pressing a button. Otherwise, you lose a bar for nothing. And Viper's damage isn't that spectacular anymore - back in Vanilla, it was crazy, but now, not so much. Still really good, I agree. I think she has some issues establishing a rushdown presence, and once she has no meter, there's no instant get-out-of-jail-free card.
Same. Can't imagine what kind of market there is for console-to-handheld fighting game ports.
Just because you don't land a combo, doesn't mean it's a waste. Generally speaking, Vipers use EX Seismo when they're being rushed down. Even if the other person blocks it, it resets the situation by giving Viper breathing space and advantage on block while also allowing her to go on the offensive. It's not like most reversals that you can bait and punish. EX Seismo is simply unpunishable while resetting everything in Viper's favor. The only time it's really a waste is if you do it full screen or something silly. That's how I see it, anyways.
I'm not saying she doesn't have good damage output...I'm saying that she's not alone in that regard. Back in Vanilla, her damage output was head and shoulders above other characters.
It didn't even chart in the mediacreate for Japan. Shoot, even extend managed to chart. If it can't chart there it won't do anything at all in the US where the playstation handhelds have trouble moving hardware and software.
Wait wait wait, how does Marvel not selling in Japan correlate to Marvel not selling in other regions? We all know how shit every Marvel game has done in Japan, and Vita version not charting falls in line with expectations anyways. I'd wait on Vita's performance in US/EU before I start assuming if hardware/software will have difficulty moving. "Playstation handhelds" is only the PSP line, it's not like you have an extensive history like Nintendo which you can draw assumptions from. You can't in this case with the Vita.
Saw that video after, was going to post it. My mind is just in pieces right now.
I actually did a storm combo at the end of the set, yay.
also, you still need to use that x-factor and meter.
been practicing her fly combos, will probably try them the next time I can online. it's so weird doing combos without lag, I can do it 9/10 times, but I set it to 4 bars, I get like a 50% success rate, lol.
You are right. I just read this now that you quoted it and it doesn't make a lick of sense. Still, not charting is pretty damned terrible even for Mahvel. I mean... damn.
must be nice being one of the dmc brothers and not have to worry about hitstun. -_-
you comparing haggar to dante? -_-
Didnt SSFIV 3D do a million total supposedly?
One of the best guys in our area runs Weskah, DoaMAMMUUUU and Magnus. Team is utterly nuts. Anyone on the team can kill at any point in the game. Sounds like your team too, but Spencer is a much better killer than Dormammu. I really dig Wesker X Mags, but I can't play Mags to save my life. So I use Taskmaster
Ah. My second team in Vanilla. More famously known as Team MastaCJ
