Is this roster actually good?

It's funny because X-23 is now much more popular than she was at the time this game came out.

Skrull's Level 3 is hype as shit to pull off

Landing that shit against someone who thinks they can fly-back and zone me out with a projectile felt amazing

Fuck you demons are cool.
I agree on the Vagina Wolverine.
Super Skrull is there to be the Fantastic Four, you can't only have 1, 2, or 3 of them, its all or nothing.

>one of the best rosters in history of fighting games
>some little bitch shits his pants because he doesn't like all the characters

I think that was the point for a lot of choices. The MCU was being planned out at this time so choices like Strange, Rocket, and Hawkeye reflected that. Thor as well, but he's an Avenger that honestly should've been in Marvel 2 if it wasn't an asset dump. Iron Fist also could've been like that given his Netflix show that came later (and flopped, but they didn't know that then). What made the roster good is that Capcom had control over their own half of the roster and got to request weird Marvel characters for their aesthetics and/or mechanics, like MODOK, Phoenix, Shuma, Taskmaster and She-Hulk. Skrull was a compromise since the game was low on villains and he encompasses all the powers of the F4 in one; on top of that, casting Charlie Adler for him was awesome.

MvC3 was ahead of the curve with a lot of the Marvel choices.
Somehow Infinite managed to do the opposite and not have what anyone wanted despite the MCU now being big enough to have plenty of good choices.

The choices/reveals that disappointed me were Akuma and that Jill wasn't like her MvC2 iteration. Also hobo Spencer over classic, but still an interesting character.

Overall great roster, lots of variation and representation; plenty of respect for the classic characters balanced with interesting newcomers.

>generic firebrand
Play Demon’s Crest, you’ll be glad you did

the roster has great variety, everybody really took it for granted.

I love Skrull but I do wonder if Capcom could pull off a 4-in-1 character. I guess you'd play as Reed and use the others as Strikers, or maybe Ben would be the main character because he has the most personality.

It'd be fun to see in definitely-never-happening MvC4, where the Fantastic 4 are paired up with some Capcom team-in-one, like V from DMC5 or The Smiths.

>put in spencer

fucking why

>Infinite finally gave X and Darkstalkers some love with X/Sigma/Jedah
>Brought back fucking Venom
>Had one fleeting moment of actual teamwork and synergy by giving Cap/Winter Soldier teams a unique level 3
>But everything else about Infinite was shit and quickly buried

>Put in Spencer
ReArmed and the reboot were pretty fresh at the time. His reveal got a good reaction, although less than Arthur's immediately after.
>Infinite
Literally because he's Combofiend's favorite. That was the one thing he did to affect the game.

Combofiend
I bet you fucking money that he was responsible for Taskmaster being in Spiderman for PS4 too

Now I want Morrissey and Johnny Marr in a fighting game

All of this, except that they also made my main man Nemesis way more viable and fun in Infinite despite the systems around him sucking dick. Nemesis/Sigma might be my favorite, most fun Vs series team, and it's stuck in the worst MvC.

My only solace is that between RE3make and Capcom's huge push for the X series lately likely as a build to X9, if we ever get another Vs game (not MvC, just any Vs Capcom game), they're both likely to return.

>I agree on the Vagina Wolverine.
X-23 is very good pick. They've wanted alternative Wolverine and instead of making boneclaw Wolverine or some shit like this they've made new character. Also - remember that she was fairly obscure character back then. And different. It's like bitching about She-Hulk or Nemesis. You may not like them but both were interesting and non-obvious choice.

>Super Skrull is there to be the Fantastic Four
Actually, whole F4 was supposed to be in game but was cut due to budget. And again, as a character he was different enough from others that it made him cool.

I legitimately like the basic gameplay of Infinite(MvCI Zero>MvC3 Zero) but the game is fucking unfinished. Fuck Capcom and Marvel

Still used her. Best monster waifu

>ROLLING HOOK
>YOU WILL SCREAM
>INFERNOOO
>That growling before his lvl3
Everything about Skrull is 10/10.

>I love Skrull but I do wonder if Capcom could pull off a 4-in-1 character.
It's called Captain Commando, you know.

>Works for Capcom
>Gets to decide which character shows up in a Marvel/Sony game
What?

Super Skrull is great, basically all of the Fantastic Four into one character and great at shit talking like the other marvel villains. Never heard of him before the game but I'm not one to complain about literally whos, since that's how you learn new shit

You forgot about his "fuck you little bitch" stomp

Combofiend worked on Spiderman

capcom's side is good, it mostly represents a good amount of capcom's modern characters (at the time) and classic
the love for darkstalkers is great BUT I would have added Megaman.EXE
Marvel's side is good but switch Sentinel for Juggernaut (bitch) and X-23 for any other X-Men

I always loved seeing people use dante in tournaments, though everyone dropped combos with him often. Shame we will never get to see dante at 100% now.

stupid earthquake, we could've had more

the only thing that makes me salty about this game even to this day is the exclusion of megaman and the trolling that came with it

Yea, I just don't like characters that are similar in archtype to another in the roster, even if different enough.
That's what I said about Skrull tough. You could use his resources for one of FF members, but they are a whole package deal.

Ever noticed how all the boys that worship both capcom and marvel all turned into women?

>Marvel's side is good but switch Sentinel for Juggernaut
Not really. I like Juggernaut but he slower Hulk with greater reach in previous games.

>no Cable/Mega Man/Captain Commando/Cyclops/Gambit/Jin
Its not a bad roster at all but it still hurts. No Cyclops was bullshit, the fucking title screen of Xmen Vs. Street Fighter was him and Ryu shaming hands.

>Yea, I just don't like characters that are similar in archtype to another in the roster
Then you should keep bitching about other characters filling Wolverine's pressure/cc role, like Felicia or Chun-Li.
>You could use his resources for one of FF members, but they are a whole package deal.
You don't get it.

>A majority of the art is now loli bullshit
Dammit

I remember running Iron Fist, Stranger, Spencer and noone knew what the fuck to do against Iron fist.
Could do 1 touch kill on most of the cast.
Took me a while to get faltine loops down though

Most of the newer generations of X-Men are kind of shitty fighters. X-23 is the exception.

>You could use his resources for one of FF members, but they are a whole package deal.
You don't get it. F4 and Super Skrull were supposed to be in game and models were made for all of them. In the end only Super Skrull made it into the game due to budget cuts.

>Infinite introduced character unique lvl3's which almost confirmed that Green Goblin was going to get in cause of Spidey's lvl3.
>Kalina Ann is cut from Dante's moveset so Lady was a real possibility.
>Game completely dies before we can get either.
I'll never not be mad. Especially since they put Venom before Goblin.

Venom was quite hype and frankly speaking he made much more sense than Green Goblin.

I played this game for 5 years ask me anything

I hate his voice.
The quote and line delivery department were so weak compared to 3

Was fine with Spencer, just angry they didn't change it to classic Bionic Commando. There was already a skin in MvC3. They could have built on that since that game was a massive copy pasta job. His game was long dead by this time.

>I remember running Iron Fist, Stranger, Spencer and noone knew what the fuck to do against Iron fist.
If you've been playing low-level players maybe. But anyone knowing how to play (U)MvC3 knew how to deal with Iron Fist.

Don't get me wrong, I've mained him myself. However his gameplay was fucking simple - get close, try to get some opening using assists and if it works do massive damage. He didn't have any tricks up in his sleeve.

>shaming hands.

>capcom side of the roster has characters vertically organized by franchise
>marvel didn't give a shit and just slapped them together in whatever order
Why does that bother me so much?

Is Virgil or Doom on your team?

I’m not mad Venom is in the game but I would have rather had Goblin first since the rest of the season was all completely new characters.

I played this game for 6 years ask me anything

You seem to forget one thing - he wasn't in MvC1. So it's not "bullshit".

captain commando and jin i missed in umvc3.

Early marvel 3 was great. The end was just sad. You either watch morrigan spam or you watch damn near unlockable zero setups that lead to a fifteen minute combo of death.
