I dunno if that's a big issue. Arthur and Firebrand made the cut.
Arthur and Firebrands games actually sold well :teehee

character specific as in moves they don't have in regular mode. like giving taskmaster gimlet or some other move he can steal from another character.
IF anything hes more derpy, hes easier to use, but was nerfed damage wise and meter wise.
Top 5?
Zero/Spencer/Viper/Doom/Wesker/Dormmamu
youd be hard pressed to make an argument that Dante is better than these 6 imo.
Ugh, what do you guys do when you're feeling really rusty and that you're playing your worst ever?

uh oh is my 360 finally dying?
my 360 has been having problems for some time now. the problem being that it goes on and off on its own. it only shuts off when i just start the console and sometimes it takes a while before the problem goes away. today in particular was pretty bad as it would shut down right after turning it on. the console also turns on by itself if i leave the power cable in. sometimes it will just make the noise as if it turned on but didn't. its working right now but this console is probably going to die soon. oh well i guess i'll ride this bitch till the wheels fall off. although can i back up my umvc3 save? i would hate to lose the console and have all my ranked data erased. in other news bum has accepted my friend request.what happened? well its a good time to get them slim models which are sexy as fuck, especially the white one.
vampire series is godlike, and it also has one of the best OST's of any fighting game/
Savior lei lei theme <3

Still shaking my head that they didnt use that and Deserted Chateau for Morrigan's theme
I'm down for vsav ggpo. (I am ass at that game.)i know right, that theme is GODLIKE. a couple of weeks ago i asked the mods if i could do a ggpo thread to get ppl to play classic games, since the discussion could drift of to emulators and roms they told me it was a no go (well thats what i understood), btw if anyone wants to play old games just pm me anytime.
How is his anchor ability overrated when in tournaments, Wesker consistently achieves XF3 "ya hate to see this kind of thing happen" kind of comebacks?I don't think Wesker is top five. Wesker's OTG assist only helps a couple teams out in Ultimate, and his anchor ability is overrated.
Zero/Viper/Dorm are the top three point characters in my opinion. Then Dante, guy who goes with everybody. He just fits everywhere. And then it rotates between Spencer/Felicia/Magneto in the last spot.
Because it has more to do with XF3 than with Wesker.How is his anchor ability overrated when in tournaments, Wesker consistently achieves XF3 "ya hate to see this kind of thing happen" kind of comebacks?

The only thing Wesker has that's "best in the game" material is the best OTG assist. Not that he's a slouch in other categories or anything.
his zoning is also pretty damn good considering he is a rush down character.And his command grab. And his launcher.
That is why I said "mostly" not like their predecessors. That series still has some hope compared to Megaman though.Isn't RE:R more like the classics? Otherwise, we are in accord.
The DMC fanbase has always come off as a bit too passionate in my eyes. I still can't forget the crazy reactions that people had to DMC4 going multiplatform and it's kinda funny that some folks act like Capcom has been shitting all over the series just because a single bad game is coming out. Other fanbases are older and have dealt with way more crap imo. Still, the DMC franchise may be at a crossroads since Capcom is hungry for that paypah. I can sympathize and it'll suck if they continue down that road.You forgot the DMC franchise.
I can live with this game if it's the only one we will get, but I'm expecting an announcement at EVO.Agree with this. I like to think of UMvC3 as being what Vanilla should have been, so with that I think we were given the sequel that does every bit of justice to what MvC2 demanded in a sequel. Now, a better UMvC3 (addition of the "lost 8" characters that Niitsuma wanted and more varied stages instead of remixes) would've made the game as close to perfect as I could've imagined.
Lots of folks here seem to be kinda one track in their method of play. Too bad the Japanese don't care much for this game. The US scene could use a push. Competition brings out the real killers and strategy.At this point, pretty much everyone is dropping Dante. I think the only one still playing him seriously is PR Rog.
I still say the problem is people aren't playing him properly. Too busy trying to rush, not enough zoning.
I stop playing.Ugh, what do you guys do when you're feeling really rusty and that you're playing your worst ever?
I start praying.That‘d require for me to actually get a win...and not be in the middle of a tourney.
You've never had a 360 break on you? You'll be fine so long as your hard drive doesn't get messed up. Your data may end up corrupted if it turns out while saving though...my 360 has been having problems for some time now. the problem being that it goes on and off on its own. it only shuts off when i just start the console and sometimes it takes a while before the problem goes away. today in particular was pretty bad as it would shut down right after turning it on. the console also turns on by itself if i leave the power cable in. sometimes it will just make the noise as if it turned on but didn't. its working right now but this console is probably going to die soon. oh well i guess i'll ride this bitch till the wheels fall off. although can i back up my umvc3 save? i would hate to lose the console and have all my ranked data erased. in other news bum has accepted my friend request.
Those fans aren't DMC fans. DMC going multiplatform was a good thing, allowed DMC4 to achieve high sales.The DMC fanbase has always come off as a bit too passionate in my eyes.

Because it's so true.Watching a Marvel vs Capcom match is something like Dragon Ball Z. When Goku is fighting one of the main villains, they'll move around at light speed shooting powerful energy blasts everywhere, and to a casual bystander it looks like people are appearing and disappearing like magic and the earth is shaking and there's explosions in the sky and oh god what the hell is going on. But the other strong fighters will just be standing on the sidelines silently and intensely watching the match, eyes darting back and forth following it all. That's MvC. Train in it for a while and a rhyme and reason starts to emerge from all that crazy stuff. Train hard enough and you can chuck spirit bombs on fools.
If more people derped with Vergil we would see that happen at a higher ratio. Ditto on Felicia. Even at NCR, there was no Wesker in grand finals despite getting so many fraudulent wins. I will admit that Dark Wesker is super effective against certain kinds of teams and poor play in general. In terms of top anchors, Wesker barely qualifies for top 5. I would rate Phoenix, Strider, Vergil and Felicia over Wesker.How is his anchor ability overrated when in tournaments, Wesker consistently achieves XF3 "ya hate to see this kind of thing happen" kind of comebacks?

/applaud.MARCUS FENIX IS AN INNOCENT MAN
Dante is better than Spencer and Dormmamu, but NOT damage wise. He is better in the sense of overall utility.
This was the best thing to come out of NCR from Marvel:
Because it's so true.
Honestly if its "utility" that makes him top 5 then what about Dr Doom who has 3 good assists, can slot in any position, actually builds alot of meter and has one of the best normals in the game (S Foot Dive)
Anyways in other things, i always laugh at the hate this game gets after a major. Because a bunch of players played shitty/dropping combos you hear people saying I HATE THIS GAME and THIS GAME IS SO RANDOM. Look at the NCR thread with the ridiculous bitch fest about SF x T vs Marvel
I dunno if that's a big issue. Arthur and Firebrand made the cut.
I played some Phoenix last night, inspired by the great Filipino Champ. My experiences only reinforced my belief that Phoenix is actually a fairly balanced character now, and you have to actually be good with her to be able to play with her at all. I am sooo bad with Phoenix. My defense is not nearly good enough to keep from being snapped in, and definitely not good enough to keep her from getting killed off when Magneto sneezes on her or whatever. I think only players with rock-solid D and overall fundamentals such as Champ will be able to be successful with her.
Why do I even have my copy of Vanilla?
Oh yeah that's right, I can't sell it back.
Anyone play Joe here?
So I've been working on some of that tech from the Task/Joe video. Combining the bomb loop with the slow down arrow loop kills any character and potentially build a huge amount of meter. Time to learn Joe now,
Anyone play Joe here?
I think ProfessorBeef is one of the only people maining Joe here...
Edit: Our resident Joe beats me to it. In other news haven't played forever.
I do, but not Tasky.
When it comes to Joe, how much damage do your BnBs usually do?
hey you only came back because of x-factor so it was b.s on both sides. although i knew you would think i would try and cross you up when hawkeye came in and my instinct paid off.Dear smurf,
that last Mr. Masters comeback was bulshevik.

Ranked was pretty decent today. Ran into a guy who knew how to do Bullet Hell really well, went about 50/50. Usually won as long as I got rid of the pretty lady.
Kept running into Alukard (or someone with his tag), kept taunting his side teams until he ran dat Skrull against me lol. Finally did and got mollywhopped. More people should play Skrull so I can get more experience and not have to be a douche to actually get a fight against one ^_^.
I think my most damaging Joe combo can do around the area of 600-700k solo, but it's really impractical and only for style purposes. Not really worth going for anymore since it also eats up the hit stun deterioration.
If you like using Slow, then you can use the solo Slow Loop I mentioned a while back. It builds exactly one meter, so you can do whatever afterwards.
After the initial Slow, get a hit into launch, then hit H, cancel into Light RHK, Medium RHK, then Hard RHK. Land, then launch them again and do it again. After the third rep hit stun will start to kick in and Slow will be just about over, so instead of launching again for a 4th, do Slow and the entire thing will reset.
I don't pay attention to how much damage my BnBs do. Maybe I should turn on the game and find out really quickly.
Didn't you call out all Thor players at some point or something? I know someone did way waaay early on.
Tier whore
I sold mine for like $15 on Amazon.
