Wolverine's and Ironman's models looks pretty awesome. They have the best models so far.

I think Ironman looks like shit. Wolverine is alright. Chris probably has the best model, personally.

Too bad I think the art style sucks. :(
 
FUCK ME! KOBUNS EVERYWHERE! GAME OF THE FOREVER!


(Please don't judge, just let me express my sexual deviances, I won't bother any more)



KOBUNS <3

Yea, Wolverine and Chris have the best models so far. Ryu and Iron Man look really awkward and the Hulk is almost TOO green and had a weird face.

I agree. They are going for an American comic style, but it looks like they took some random, unknown, artist of middling talent and told him to do some character designs. Why didn't they get a current badass comic artist to do the designs? I wouldn't mind more Jim Lee based stuff either. Hey, even if they didn't get him to do original stuff and just used old work that wasn't tailored for this project - like they did with the old Capcom fighters - that would probably be an improvement. What they have now is just so "meh" and generic. You know something is wrong when Ryu looks like his American SF cartoon incarnation.

I remember not liking SFIV when the screens first surfaced, but the general character design remained the same. The models and textures were improved but Ryu still looks almost as ugly as he did in the early shots and Ken still has helmet hair. I'm sure they'll make it look better before release, but the character designs are not likely to change in any meaningful way.
 
Wow, I suck at SF4.

I'm not even kidding, I really suck.

I can pull off some moves with ~30% accuracy, while others (like Ryu's flying uppercut) are more like 5%. I've only won a single game in online and have lost over 30 games since and I can't even beat the single player on default settings

Still having a ton of fun with online, weirdly enough
 
I'm really impressed by the chracter models

technically, not artistically mind you

but I can see why they would want to make the capcom designs more "western" to meld with the Marvel IP better (instead of making the Marvel characters more anime-inspired which is what I feel they did for COTA, MSH XvsF, MvC, etc.)
 
I think the new screens look solid. Not mind blowing, but still really good. I was never impressed with SF4 scans but when I saw the game in motion I fell in love with it, I think it'll be the same thing here.

The problem is they're trying to make the Ironman from the movies and not the comics. Ironman should not be that tall/skinny and he should definitely have more gold/yellow on his suit, and his faceplate is off too.

edit: what's funny is that the Ironman from the movies actually looks better than this Ironman.
 
Proton Canon confirmed!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This game wins over everything, all developers stop what you're doing now.

I really dislike the art style. The Hulk just says it all. He looks literally like he is made of giant green jello that was then shined over with car wax. It's fugly to say the least.

This doesn't even look comic booky, or good use of cell shading. It's just blatantly bad. They should've just taken SF4 and fiddled with the shaders more. The background on one stage though looks good, but the other looks like ass city.(I think it's the one where Wolvy and Ryu fight with the bill board. It looks like throw up)

Yeah I'm being hard, but at the same time if we aren't all up in Capcom's business telling them NO this won't fly---fix it, then we'll be stuck with this vomit exercise in "art."

Push the game back, and restart the look for shading/color tones, and you can save this game artistically. Hell from what we've heard the games controls are getting an over haul too, so the sooner you get it into players hands the sooner we can tell you if MvC3 is just bad graphically and/or playing wise as well.

I'd hate to see what Gambit looks like in this fudge induced dream of diarreha. :(
 
It looks great. Too much of putting the characters under a microsope and not looking at this thing as a whole.

Remember the early Ryu/Ken from SF4? Yeah, wonky faces. Turned out great in the end.
 
The problem here is that Chris Redfield looks fine in these shots, but he's a character we haven't seen in a fighting game before. The other characters are going to be compared against -insert your favorite Capcom fighter here- and found "wrong" and "fugly".

The art style looks about as westernized as I expected. It'll probably be tweaked further over the next year anyway.
 
After showing what they could do with Ouroboros in RE5, I wouldn't be surprised if Venom is included in the roster.

And as for the screens, I'll state my thoughts which simply reiterate what's already been posted:

a) it'll look a million times better in motion
b) these are very early development. SFIV looked like ass before it's current incarnation. Seriously. It's not worth complaining about because it'll look completely different.

I dunno, the new Iron Man in that screenshot looks really awkward holding the cannon. Classic Iron Man sprite ftw.
 
I suppose the main thing I can say for right now is that it doesn't look "enough" like a comic book. Hell, it doesn't even go for "Anime-Marvel" style that Capcom did in the early games. Hope they stand to patch that up.

But hey, at least Wolvie, IM and Hulk look to have their BnB supers back.
 
Its only going to look better in the future, and many people are too used to how MvC2 looks and feels, so they are bound to be disappointed by any major differences.

Teasel in the background = awesome. Tron Bonne in the background = sadness, cuz it means she's probably not in the game as a fighter.

Until it's 100% confirmed, I wouldn't abandon hope for her just yet.

After all, there's nothing stopping them from doing one of those classic "He/She appears in the background, unless they're actually on the field, themselves", as could be seen by the likes of Spider-man in MSHvsSF, among others.

Besides, as a character who appeared in the series before, I'd think she'd probably be a more "welcome" appearance than perhaps even Volnutt/Trigger ripped from TvC.
 
Now comments on the awesome backgrounds? The new york with the spidey balloon is awesome, as is the Tron Bonne stage.

Obviously these shots are early because Iron Man/Hulk/Chris do not have the proper shaders on yet. It's pretty obvious that these are just the plain models, and that shaders will be added later.

They are probably right now in the stage of creating/refining character animation, shaders is something that comes with polish towards the end of the cycle and we are more than a year away.

I'm not making excuses for the game, but I can tell even at this early stage it's looking great and really coming together. Don't even have me google pre-alpha SF4 screens because the early Ryu/Ken looked pretty terrible.
 
Also people expecting a total Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 feel/vibe are going to come away disappointed. It's going to have a TvC feel and vibe. It might even be 3 button. Just like SF4 felt nothing like 3rd Strike or even ST/Alpha, yet it still turned out brilliant. Expect the same here.

Very clearly this game is going to be an evolution of TvC and not MvC2, and that's not a bad thing at all, TvC is great. Honestly I'd be surprised if the final game is in fact 3 v 3 and not 2 v 2.

Real talk and none of this is a bad thing at all. Hell I'd even like to see LARGE characters ala TvC make a return. Could you imagine a team of Silver Surfer and Dr. Strange going up against a giant Galactus? How about Wolverine and Cyclops against one huge Sentinal. Tell me that shit wouldn't be epic.

If Sentinel is in the game and he's a giant I can't wait to hear all the rage from MvC2 diehards :lol

And the final results were wonderful, which is why this game will be gorgeous.

I mean that's the thing that gets me, like I hate the diehards because all they ever want is more of the same same same. Like, if it were up to the diehards Street Fighter 3 would have been Ryu, Ken, Guile, Blanka, E.Honda, M.Bison etc. , no parry system, same old tired gameplay concepts as 2. Yawn.

I mean why do people want the same regurgitated crap over and over again. Capcom has proven it can do a 3d vs. fighter with TvC. That was the test for this and it's probably a similar team carrying over much of the talent here. Let this proven team give us something fresh and new, and let's play the game with an open mind.

The thing is that the MvC2 diehards really, really, really despise TvC. Maybe for good reason, I dunno. I assumed it's because it doesn't have Magneto flying all over the screen like a spaz or Sentinel stomping the shit out of people.
 
At this point I really don't like the art style. It worked well in TvC, but these higher res images look kinda fugly. Maybe it's just the dark, garish backgrounds and color balance that makes everything seem off? I'm hopeful it'll look better in motion though.
