Ultimate Marvel Vs Capcom 3

same at ours. 3 guys obviously had early play time and went in with full combos. Game is gonna take getting used to. It's so easy to mash a combo together but to be precise is gonna take some work. I'm still like @_@ on strategies at this point. I like X-23 a lot...but thats just cuz her normals and dash are insane....super skrull throw is intense. Throw > L tenderizer > Lvl 1 Hyper is a really easy was to beat new people down.

I'm baffled why they even bothered to lock the 4 characters. I accidentally unlocked them in my first hour of play just toying around.

Online feels a bit laggy. I'm lettin it slide till this weekend when there's a denser population to grab better connections, but my first one was terrible and the others were ok. Think I only had one really good lag free one. I can't super jump in lag >_< ate projectiles all night trying to jump in.
 
Ok, been nailing away for nearly 4 hours now. And I have to say, Dante + X-23 + Zero =PROFIT! Loving this team!

My first online game was actually a good connection, no input or display lag. I'm almost sure the guy was in simple mode as each char pulled off only 1 super.

Fucking hate the 360 D-Pad now more than ever though...
 
Ya if you do pad consider that new 6 button pad with microswitch analog. It looks like it will be really good for pad players...despite its design being ugly as sin. As far as I know there's not short cuts in this game so a good peripheral is more key than SSF4. I don't even think they have negative edging. I gotta read the guide and try some stuff out and see what i find :/

And yeah I totally had a simple mode come at me. It works pretty well. they did some decent things but to even it out, it allowed me to predict them and make counters once I had it figured out when to push block and punish. I think they did a great job on that part.
 
I've been hearing that there are already some broken eams, like Spiderman, wesker and zero, one is fast as hell the other one too powerful and the other one idk, I don't think it's true though, whatcha guys think? My team is Chun-Li, Phoenix, and X-23 anyway =/
 
Edit: and is it true there are still more characters to be added so we can download them later on?
 
Been on Neoempire again (still waiting for the game) and apparently there's some kind of vote (Afraid there's no guarantee for the winners) for DLC's happening...

Get on capcom-unity.com and use these links;

To Vote For Marvel characters<<

To vote for Capcom characters<<

Many pages already (perhaps hundreds by now), just make sure to read the rules, haven't been on there yet myself, but I'm hearing it ends on 28th Febuary. Good luck. Feel free to tell me who you all are voting for too if you decide to go for it.
 
I'm going Megaman X, Mystique (am i the only one thinking she would be awesome?) or Carnage

As for brokenness...don't listen to anything you hear. I see people making claims left and right about who's good and who sucks and people keep finding new stuff and undoing all that. I was at gamestop last night and the guy who won the tournament was talking mass shit about tiers and etc...then he got stomped by the store manager using Captain America and Zero (the player...an SRK mod no less...was using Dante and Sentinal in his teams, as well as characters that are just perceived top tier currently)...Wait till we start breaking the game a bit more and see what occurs. Just play who's fun till after EVO. Counter strategies are bound to form to stop the early "broken tactics".

I am bankin on Super Skrull bein amazing tho. That throw and tenderizer is just so beastly.
 
lol true...

Still he seemed to have his stuff together and was pretty confidant in his analysis of the game...and then I saw a lot of stuff that he wasn't banking on apparently.
 
I'm gonna say Deadpool be breaking that 4th wall so hard.
He actually used the special gauge to whack an opponent.
Gave me a chuckle. Na-mu.....

Of course he's using the special bar, whacking's not the word I'd use... I like 'bangbang bangbangbang bang' better myself... Personally I want Cable to get back in, original new characters like Amingo couldn't hurt either. Other then that *cough* sabretooth *coughcough* gambit *ahem* excuse me...
 
Regardless of how fun it is and how many characters are legitimately usable, the game is random as fucking scrub poker. People are loling over level 3 x factor Sent because he does the damage quick and easy off of all options, but plenty other characters are capable of the same shit option wise. To its credit, this game won't just be "Learn three characters and achieve combos" but it's pretty close lol. Level 2-3 x factor is pretty much like every character in MvC2 having an Iron Man infinite off of most, if not all mixup options at the very least. People will learn how to best to lame it out and not get blown up as much, but it still yanks the ball from nearly anywhere in the court and puts it in your hands along with a bottle of instant metaphorical steroids.

Right now what separates this game from MvC2 the most imho is that the potential counters for the strongest options (aka level 3 X factor with an appropriate character) are a lot less solid than what existed in the last game between the top teams. Normally it's silly to cry foul this early, but unless something drastic is found to counter level 3 x factor beyond "I have it too and don't think I'll get blown up too fast to use it" or "I can run away from that character with this character" and the damage boost is lowered (At the very least), then the game will prolly end up being a novelty like the majority of vs games.

k rant over. Keep in mind it's not bitching so much as speculation under the guise of internet authority and random metaphors lol, I have almost no vested interest in this game being truly competitive. Feel free to post friendly counter walls of tee ell semi-colon dee arr.
 
First day impressions (which consists only of Mission and Training): Phoenix corner pressure is that ish. I was thinking she would be my anchor, but I really want to play her on point. Going to have to work extensively on defense and other characters in order to do that, though.
 
Because of characters with solid offensive teleports and easy assist setups into launch combos, putting her on point is dangerous as hell. The best bet is prolly to have a defensive zoning duo that works well on its own without meter to wear down the opponent, build meter and avoid snapbacks into Pheonix rape fanfiction. But that's just a suggestion from an internet random, it's best to just play the game, screw around with options and have fun right now :U
