Where Ya Curly Mustaches At?! Marvel vs Capcom 3 Hype Thread of Scoops!

No Cyclops -> no buy.
He is THE leader of the X-Men, as of now.
And I seriously doubt he would lose the power play presented in Second Coming to Magneto or Emma.

My take on this:

MARVEL

Good list, finally someone from the FF4. Emma Frost is awesome too but no Ice Man is lame. Surprised to see She Hulk and X-23. Lack of Storm, Psylocke, Sentinel, Cable and

CAPCOM

Tronn Bonne and Zero but no Mega Man? I am calling bull shit on this right now.

No Strider is bull shit too... the guy was in the ORIGINAL MVC. But it's still a good well rounded list of Capcom characters and not a bunch of relative unknowns like MVC2. Surprised to see 2 characters from DMC and 2 characters from RE.

The Capcom side in that list is straight fucking garbage.

No Nero.
No Ken.
No Strider.
No Demitri.
No Talbain.

And instead we get crap like Trish?
If true: die in a fucking fire, Capcom.

One thought on Marvel side, if true:
She-Hulk and Hulk seem redundant.
 
Just voted for my favorite and somewhat obscure character:

Nevermind that these characters have like, stories and shit. Its not just about what their powers are that makes them awesome (which is, btw, what separates Marvel characters from DC characters, that theyre much more than just their abilities)

For Emma Frost, read the New X-Men Grant Morrison run and Astonishing X-Men paperbacks, then tell me shes not awesome :P

She's not awesome.
=P

That Marvel list kind of sucks. I would think including Super Skrull would make Mister Fantastic useless. She-Hulk and Hulk?

So apparently, someone posted, what is believed to be the current roster, on SRK. The user was banned and the post deleted. Could just be bullshit. Here it is. Mock if old. Again, probably just BS.

Personally, I think it's a load of crock, but you guys decide.

That list is confirmed fake, just to letcha know. Someone on 4chan having fun.

That doesn't make any sense. How can you ask for Ken and then say She-Hulk is redundant?

Because Ken has evolved from being a standard clone of Ryu to a variation with emphasis on the shoryuken instead of the hadoken. There's at least SOME difference... and while I'm sure they could make *some* difference between the moveset of Hulk and She-Hulk, they both have no powers other than "super strength when they're angry", as far as I know. So you have Hulk and Hulk with tits and hope for a varied moveset... with Ken and Ryu, at least you know you'll get the variation.

All they need to do is drop Akuma and pick up Ken to fix that problem. :)

They also fail, if that list is true, for not having more awesome SF4 females like C. Viper and Cammy.
 
About the rumored list, I'm okay with some of those characters, but... 3 (5 including villains) X-Men but no Cyclops? Super Skrull, Taskmaster, Juggernaut, Elektra and Shuma-Gorath make it, but not a single Spider-man villain?

The Capcom part has some good choices, but on the other hand... it seems to drop every single one of the Capcom characters added by Marvel VS Capcom 1 that weren't just recycled from other games. Tron and Zero, but no Mega? Strider, Captain Commando and Jin all dropped? Sure, they'd have to be remade, but they already have movesets designed for them, so dropping every single one of them isn't likely. I don't think this list will turn out to be real...
 
the less shotos the better. i'd rather ryu has his "transformations" from the original MvC than see a ton of shotos on the roster.

Phoenix Wright's objection power should be a counter.

Come on man, you really think I'm going to play story mode here? This is Marvel 3. Powers ARE EVERYTHING.

Hey, youre the one bitching at Marvel for what theyve been doing for the last 30 years. They've been making compelling characters :P

Character. Compelling character. Deadpool is awesome. And does things that work for videogames instead of just being able to sound like other people!

It's not like it's the SFII/CE/Turbo days where they had the EXACT same moveset and were generic pallet swaps.

well...

I'm not saying you're insane, but you're definitely a hypocrite.

Oh yeeeah Deadpool has that healing factor Ive never heard of before, and that wit! No Marvel character is witty :P

Sure am!

Regardless, to me, there's a huge fucking difference in the way current versions of Ken and Ryu play... it's why I main Ken. And that's why I'd be pissed if he wasn't in the game.
 
Okay you guys. Seriously, who the hell is Deadpool and why have I never heard of him prior to this thread?

I've seen pictures of him before but I just assumed he was some alternate-universe version of Spider-man that got his own spin-off series.
 
I'd rather see Akuma in there than any other shoto.. but Ryu has to be there for you to know it's a capcom fighting game D: (inc. "rival schools" whatever)

Also that list cannot be true due to the lack of Strider. Capcom wouldn't do that to us

Yeah, crapcom would.

But the backlash would be epic.

A disfigured and mentally unstable mercenary, Deadpool originally appeared as a villain in an issue of New Mutants, and later in issues of X-Force. The character has since starred in several ongoing series, and shares titles with other characters such as Cable. The character is famous for his tendency to break the fourth wall and is frequently referred to by the moniker "Merc with a Mouth."

Deadpool's primary power is an accelerated healing factor, depicted by various artists and writers with varying levels of efficiency. Said healing factor, which was artificially endowed by the Weapon X program, enables him to regenerate any destroyed tissues or organs at a super-human rate. An unanticipated side effect of the therapy was a rapid acceleration of the cancerous tumors he was suffering from at the time as well, causing them to quickly spread across his entire body as soon as his powers fully activated. Because of this, his healing factor super charged his cancer, resulting in massive scar tissue causing his appearance to be severely disfigured. Deadpool's brain cells are similarly affected, with dying brain cells being rejuvenated at a super accelerated rate. While this allows Deadpool to recover from any and all head wounds, it is also the cause of his psychosis and mental instability. For some reason, this ability also renders him resistant to telepathy. Deadpool's healing factor is strong enough that he has previously survived decapitation more than once, though in each of these occurrences, his head had to be reunited to his body to heal the wound instead of his body growing a new head (or vice-versa)... Similar to Wolverine, his healing factor also affects a number of his physical attributes by increasing them to superhuman levels heightening at least his endurance and stamina... Deadpool's healing factor also provides him with an extended lifespan by slowing the effects of the aging process to an unknown degree which cannot be measure as yet, since he is, naturally, not old enough to see any effect. However, his life span is, apparently, extended to such a degree, that he is still alive as Deadpool 800 years from the present as shown when the new X-Force encountered him in the future.

Aside from his physical advantages, Deadpool is a superb assassin and mercenary, an expert in multiple forms of martial arts, an expert swordsman and marksman, and has been said to have enhanced physical strength. It has also been discussed that, while his psychosis and dissociative identity disorder is a handicap, it is also one of his greatest attributes as it makes him an extremely unpredictable opponent. Taskmaster (who has Photo-Reflexive Memory which allows him to copy anyone's fighting skills by observation, thus making him their equal in battle) was unable to defeat Deadpool due to his chaotic and improvised fighting style.[27] Over the years, Deadpool has owned a number of personal teleportation devices. Also, during Deadpool's first ongoing comic, he possessed a device which projected holographic disguises, allowing him to go undercover or conceal his appearance.

Okay, awesome. I'm all for this guy now.

Sorry for the extended detail; I just copied the two parts that mattered from wikipedia quickly -- the who and the powers parts -- then edited out a few things to cut down on size (like languages spoken, etc.).

Deadpool might be seen as "the flavor of the month" since he recently got popular, but he's seemingly been popular amongst comic fans since the mid-90s -- my buddy in HS used to pick up new comics in the series on a regular basis... I always just kind of liked him because he was a psycho ninja who played with guns and mouthed off to everyone on a regular basis. :)
 
"There's no way some version of Mega Man won't be in this. No way. Unless they are sticking with "realistic" characters which chops off a good chunk of that rumor list anyways."


Zero's close enough!
 
BitchTits said:
How come Dr. Strange never gets a look in?

I dunno. Doc Strange would a be really fun character to put in a fighter. You'd have a lot of leeway in movesets, since he can do practically anything you want.

If true: die in a fucking fire, Capcom.

One thought on Marvel side, if true:
She-Hulk and Hulk seem redundant.
Already pointed out the Strider point. Not really that bummed out by the exclusion of Ken but having 3 character slots for Darksider characters and not having either of Demitri/Talbain is a sin. I also think that characters like Hayato and Jin Saotome should be included as well as they were some awesome Capcom characters from MVC2. And one more thing, no Captain Commando is a sin too.

The slots are more limited now and having even 2 characters from a non-fighting game series is unnecessary (RE and DMC have 2 each). I also say WTF at She-Hulk, but I am sure Capcom is going to change her around from the regular Hulk.

Still shocked at no Storm/Psylock/Sentinel from Marvel, that's like 60%-70% of the characters played in MVC2!

agreed. I'd rather have Zero if we're limited to one.. and I'd rather have Mega Man over Roll
 
I'm not sure I buy that list -- Emma Frost doesn't really make much sense. She'd been pulled by Marvel in other games because she's not a brawler at all. They considered her for MUA2 and she was pulled. Taskmaster is just stupid -- no offense to the people that like the character, he just adds nothing to the game. And, there are zero cosmic representatives - Thanos, Nova, Silver Surfer, Quasar, etc ... so, I can't imagine they'd totally pass on that. Tron Bonne over a ton of other characters on the capcom side? Really?

I think it's really close, but not accurate.

While you could be right that it's not 100% (it is just a rumor, after all), going by your logic, Trish *definitely* wouldn't be in the game.
