UMVC3: Phoenix Wright and Nova Revealed!

Can you see if you can do some of Magnus' fly combos with Nova?

Could you check for Nova's THC hyper when you set that Aegis reflector thing as his assist? It'd be awesome if you could also check Ghost Rider's THC hyper when his assist is set to Heartless Spire.

Thanks

All we know is that it is no longer spammable. We may find out more today at the panel.

Will do. A friend of mine plays Magnus in vanilla and is set on playing Nova, so I'll pass this along to him.
 
Do we know which version of the Nova Strike is available as an assist? Crumple or Wall bounce? I do agree that they should've kept the low hitting OTG slide for Nova's Centurian assist.

Nice to hear that the Gravimetric Barrier is available as an assist.
 
There is another Marvel video game panel at 1:15, but it covers everything but UMVC3 ... May get some new reveals though.

Do we still think they'll reveal the last two today?

They better! I need some good news after the gem system bombshell.
 
Wow. The Phoenix Wright reveal has 500k+ views already as compared to the other characters (Nova is 100k+). So I guess Feenie is the selling point of UMVC3? :P

I think it is more of a curiosity factor since they hyped his uniqueness.
Agreed. Wright has more views than all the other characters combined. It's a popular franchise but it's not THAT popular certainly not more than let's say RE (about on par with DMC I would say). The mystery fueled the hype.

Let's see how the hype holds up around a month after the game's release.

Got confirmation from SRK that Nova Strike assist is the Wall bounce edition. Nice! Also it appears that one of the build has the dive kick hitting overhead.... wtf.
 
By the way, did they confirm DLC characters for this game? Apologies if this has been responded already.
 
Maybe Capcom will reveal something on Halloween.

In any case we will find out in an hour exactly.

As of right now it's only Jill/Shuma the ones already available on vanilla. They carry over if you bought them before.
 
Stream quality is terrible, but it's on.

I really like Nova's va. Nova sounds like a true stylish d-bag when he's beating someone up. Like, he's hitting you with the hand of royalty or some shit.

As someone who spends most of his MvC3 time offline, that sounds like a fun dumb diversion. I'll mess with that a few times!
That's my take on it, too. It's silly and stupid, but as a fun little minigame, it sounds amusing. It's the Tekken Ball of UMvC3.

I did too, but I would rather it be cross rush or replay saving or something I'll use more than twice. Hell I'd rather it even be ability to pick characters 3 times for shits and giggles.

That would be pretty fun too. Fighting teams of three MODOKs in Event Mode was some of the most fun I had in Arcade.

All that event mode shit.. I'm not sure why it's all still restrictive/turned to DLC for devs. If you could do it for AI (let's be real its probably the easiest set of parameters ever for them to change) then why not include it all in the next release? Shit it was all ON the first disc too.

SMH Japanese devs.
 
Nothing grows hair on your chest like fighting 3 Bone Claw Wolverines vs 3 Sentinels in MVC2.

I guess in MVC3 that would be the equivalent of 3 Arthurs in their under pants fighting 3 Magnetos.
 
I guess the interview with Seth at 10AM did not have anything juicy to offer?

That or people were looking for an excuse to not buy the game.

What a waste of mode and dev time.
This is what they do instead of buffing Chun Li or the other low tiers.

hahaha

Like Vanilla 3 was really full of fair fights lol.

I wish there were an option to turn that goddamn event mode stuff off. I hate it because it always loads and I barely touch it. It also takes three times longer to load on the PS3 and it drives me crazy!

It really is. I hope no one else talks about it anymore either, giving it more attention then it deserves.

Wow.... you fucking serious? <_< SFxT shits all over Ultimate...

... But im still buying both lmao.

It's one thing when randoms call Ammy "the dog", but when a Capcom employee does... -_-
Maybe they should give her a trenchcoat. That seems to be the only way that characters can be taken seriously.

Also, Leather helps, but I don't want to see Ammy covered in leather. X_X
