Ultimate Marvel Vs Capcom 3

Also keep in mind Marvel is aware of the 20 less characters than the last MvC. They were gifted with pre rendered sprites last time that freed up a lot of time. As well balance was not so much in mind that time around and having lots of characters in this type of game takes a very long time to balance check. That being said, they will more than likely add on characters after its release and patching has been done after inevitable exploits are figured out early on. Expect DLC or a $40 rerelease (im banking on this to be a new trend after BB:CT copied SSFIV) with new characters.

I expect some favorites will be intentionally left out to bait the future sale of the update.
 
Since the game is 3D models, rather than 2D sprites, Rogue could actually gain special moves like in X-men versus Street Fighter. That would be awesome. Plus I just really like Rogue anyway, so I really want Rogue in now.
 
So I got to play MvC3 at Evo. I didn't get to try out a whole lot because generally you got pwned by some asshat who already played the game prior and would pick all the top tiers before you could (in this demo only one player could use a character) and then sent to the back of the line again. Right now the game isn't balanced and it's not intended to be yet, they're still working on the mechanics. So here's what I know:

There is a L M H attack setup like in TvC. On the bottom is Special, Assist 1, Assist 2. Special acts as a launcher and can tag in an ally mid combo and keep it flowing. Tapping the assists does an assist and holding it does a tag out. This is very awkward and not well received it will likely change. At E3 tag out was back+assist but lead to the issue of not being able to assist while blocking.

Air dashing is limited to certain characters and changed balance this time around. It also seems as though every character will have two lvl 1 Hypers and a lvl 3. Deadpools lvl 3 was accidentally discovered and is funny as hell. It's a counter hit that if activated he will bat you opponent with their own life bar then pick up the super bar and beat them with that as well. 421AAA is the input (A attack, so L+M+H). There's also and interesting life gain you can do. It's L+M+H+Sp. and heals you're in characters red. Don't know what the penalty is, but the condition seems to be when an ally dies you get a stock to do it.

For balance, right now Dante, and from what I heard, Felicia are broke and will later be nerfed. A cool new thing is hit stun scaling. This means the longer a combo the shorter the hit stun to you is, preventing infinites from ever occurring in theory.

The game looks gorgeous as hell and it seems they have a good direction going. Once we see the mechanics fall in place I think we'll have a great game. Visuals and stage looks great and I like the menu and GUI. Also to be noted, the music is COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.
 
Chun Li, Trish, Doctor Doom and Super Skrull confirmed. :D

Awesome, but where the hell is Samanosuke ?! >:(
 
F**K YEA !! I figure Thor would be in sooner or later. Glad to finally see him in. :D Now if only they announce a certain Capcom character, i'll be set with this game. >:)

So apparently, they had a live stream done at Comic Con with one of the guys from MvC3. Certain characters will not make the cut. They list who starting at 33:00 into the stream. :\

Which of the characters from MVC3 do you enjoy writing about the most? Why?

For Marvel it’s Wolverine and Deadpool, without a doubt. Wolverine because he’s maybe my all time favorite character and he’ll always has a special place in my heart because he’s really the character that launched my career (plus I can probably write his dialogue in my sleep). And Deadpool because he’s just so damned fun to write for—I really think he’s going to be the game’s breakout character.

As for Capcom, I’ve always been partial to the Resident Evil and Street Fighter franchises so it’s probably those characters, especially the villains. They’re just such evil sons of bitches I had a ball writing for them.
Confirms a villian for SF and RE. Probably Bison + Wesker.
 
Seth Boss ?!?

Phoenix Wright, Emma Frost, Daredevil, Gene from God Hand, Ghost Rider and Punisher are the confirmed NOT in the game BTW.

ALSO...

There will be a megaman character (at least one, perhaps more), but which one? I'm banking on both Zero and Megaman both make it.

The "Take you for a Ride" song will most likely be available if not remixed.

And the most important IMO, do not count the available character slots in the games menu...there may well be more than 30 characters!!!
 
It's confirmed that there are 30 already under development and will definitely be more. They're aiming for more than MvC2.

Also, HEROMAN seems to be a possible inclusion
