Is anyone else really excited that they are putting more effort into the story this time?

Is anyone else really excited that they are putting more effort into the story this time?

I actually thought the character specific banter in MvC3 was great. Stuff like Vergil/Magneto "Your appearance reminds me of my son, let's see if you can match his speed in battle." is just fantastic. What characters would you like to see interact in the story?

>Is anyone else really excited
no, I honestly think it will be shit

>only 2v2
>no assists
>explicitly stated the game is going to be casualized

I think it will sell well, but the comp scene will through it in the trash and just keep playing marvel 3

After SFxT and SFV, I don't think Capcom can afford another dud.

This needs to be good for them.

They are going after the casual audience, the game will sell well for the wrong reasons

I'm hoping it's not as shitty as SFV when you see the gap of quality between them

>They are going after the casual audience

MvC3 was also streamlined but it was still quite good nonetheless.

never forgetti

it already looks better

>too salty to let the joke character finish his animation
top kek fchump

SFV is making them bank from DLC and Esports money. Plus, they didn't even pay for the game, Sony did.

They said they would have a story last time, so I'm not holding my breath

They've barely shown shit and what they have shown looks pretty bad so far, no doubt it'll improve closer to release but there's not much to be "really excited" for at the moment.

>I don't think Capcom can afford another dud.
They can, Capcom has Scrooge McDuck levels of money. SFV "flopping" still did better than every other fighter too, they'll be fine regardless of what this game is like.

yea sfv is living on kids like you to buy all the DLC

why is wanting a casual audience bad

>They can, Capcom has Scrooge McDuck levels of money.
I don't doubt SFV is making a lot of longterm money for them, but Capcom are hardly swimming in money.

Look at how much smaller scale RE7 is compared to RE6.

>tfw Dante/DMC5 cross-reveal

>mfw Donte/DmC2 cross-reveal

not just kids like him
anyone that wants to be tournament viable has to at least buy all the characters to do lab work

Expecting an audience to buy it when they won't while alienating old fans.

Who are they Expecting

when

>buying the characters
lad

Donte won't be in Infinite when DMC3 Dante is already an established character with an already well-liked playstyle.

If I gave two shits about Story, I wouldn't play a fighting game.

Story mode is a great way to get casual sales without compromising on gameplay design.

I'd rather Capcom put time into making a fleshed out story instead of casualizing gameplay.

FUCK YOU

I hope they choose Dante from DMC1/4 and change some of his attacks with other weapons

> without comprimising on gameplay

Having a non-vn styled story mode takes significant resources.

Capcom had to cut out MvC3's story mode yet that didn't mean we got more character; it just meant that we didn
t get story mode.

What evidence is there that 3's story mode was cut?

Look at the Galactus boss fight.

What about it? There's no indication that Galactus was anything other than better execution of what they attempted with Apocalypse and Onslaught. Everybody assumed 3 would have a stroy mode right up until the game came out because the NYCC panel said Frank Tieri was writing story scenes.

Bring back character intros before fights.
Like Ken and Ryu fist bumping if they're on opposite teams before the match starts.
Also, have all characters have a queue of things to say regardless of who is their main opponent.
So if Hulk and Zangief both make the cut, have them say something like "It's been awhile, you've gotten older and hopefully stronger." referencing previous games they were both in.

after playing SF5's story no im not

Didn't MvC3 have American writers?

Thought the writing was pretty solid in that, what little there was at least.

>fighting game
>story mode
Fucking casuals won't play it a few months after release with or without a story mode

The best thing about crossovers are the character interactions.

I just hope Infinite has some fucking organization in it's character select screen.

People who will be intimidated to play with seasoned veterans.

>FailPeenoise Chump
When was this?

Marvel is handling the storytelling, while Capcom is handling the game design.

The game will be fun like older Marvel games

>explicitly stated the game is going to be casualized
Liar

> character screen organization

what?

>explicitly stated the game is going to be casualized

Just like every game with any resemblance of a competitive side released after the ps3 era.

>story in a fighting game

Marvel tags capcom at least will address the turn based fighter issue. The problems will arise from the fact you can almost be certain long combo strings will be entirely absent. It's a delicate balance but taking away something that the series became known for seems counter productive.

I only wish the tag system doesn't turn out to have only *character with long animation special*/*character with crazy tridash high/low/left/right* as viable teams. It was bad enough with Law on SFxT. But they just have to not add such long animation specials to solve this kind of problem.

The series got known for that thanks to MVC2 and 3, but its not what it used to be.

I liked the games before MVC2. They were stupid, but not fucktarded.

Also if the goal is to attract a casual audience then shit wont matter anyways, because millions of potential buyers have never seen a MVC game before.

>keep playing Marvel 3
Game's dead as shit as is, they're just going to play SFV instead and fill the EVO slot with MKXI or Injustice 2 or some shit.

The thing is, the tag assist system is marvel's best feature and going back to no assists feels like a big downgrade.

Those OTGs, wallbounces, and tag ins are just asking to be broken. They need to bring dizzies back because hitstun decay is shit and unintuitive

We all know though that casual audiences go for the flavor of the month. Even if this game captured that for the moment, it wont mean the game will forever be at tournaments like marvel 2 and 3. Having a low skill floor isn't bad but a low ceiling is.

Me n guys named Frank don't get on too well

Post dat roster wish list.

back in August

>buying characters

Christ...

MVC3 was the pinnacle of crossover character interaction. It will not be topped and I'm judging this solely on their decision to focus on the marvel movies but this game will not have all of the soul mvc3 had

not bad, not bad at all

Not for the Capcom side though, especially all those fucking lawyer jokes towards Phoenix.

Last time they had plans to have the Marvel characters speak Japanese as well but Nitsuma removed it, do you think they'll go for it this time?

Yes it looks great.

Mein negger.

>10+ years old characters from dead capcom games

Poor user

All i know is that REv2 claire and SFV zombie Nash are 100% in

man of TASTE

I bet that's what you said about Arthur, Haggar, and other Darkstalkers back in MvC3 too.

I'm a fucking slut for Marvel and the FGC is dying. So yes I'm hyped. Really hoping this and Tekken 7 can save the community.

>Competitive will keep playing 3
Son...I have some news for you...you might want to sit down.

>No X-Men and Fantastic Four-related characters including Dr. Doom.
>At the most it's gonna be Street Fighter V and Michael Bay's Resident Evil games.

PLEEEEEASE don't cut MODOK I know he isn't in the cinematic universe b-but .. he's cool..

>the FGC is dying
people really got to stop pushing this total fucking meme. The FGC used to be a few guys huddled around an arcade cabinet and its only expanded from there.

People hear about shitty sales of SFV and then think welp guess its all over now its all down hill. Bunch of pussies imo. The FGC will be fine.

Just because it's focused on MCU doesn't mean it's exclusive to it. And it's not like we won't get unexpected picks out of it as well.

I'm hoping you are right. On the MCU side, how likely is it we will get digitized chris pratt?

Here we go.

Honestly with Sigma being the main baddy with Ultron (I firmly believe this) I think it's somewhat likely we will get both X and Zero, here's hoping

Those appeared before in games one way or another but Vanessa Z?Gene? get real nigga

As someone who's been in since the early 2000s, yes, the community is going back to that fucking hellhole. Compare weeklies like WNF and NLBC from 2 years ago to today. We are going right back to that era of being on the sidelines and nobody giving a shit

He is on that shitastical current Avengers cartoon and the Phineas and Ferb Marvel special.

>TFW we're probably getting the shitty Avengers Asseble VAs.
No offense, it's just I don't want to be reminded of that piece of dogshit, or any of Marvel's recent failed abortions of shows.

Good god does Marvel's animation fucking suck. The only good ones were Spectacular Spider-Man and Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes but were automatically cancelled too early and replaced those failed abortions Ultimate and Assemble.

No. I don't care about story modes in my fighting games.

Not that much. Capcom might go for a mix of movie/comics, but he'll 100% always be wearing the mask.

Earth's Mightiest Heroes version of Wasp was my waifu. I was literally in love with her.

Chris Pratt likes vidya and I think he'd be totally down to do it. I just don't think Capcom can afford him.

Who cares if were on the sidelines, which we wont be cause ESPN motherfucker. EVO is only getting bigger, Capcom Cup coverage beyond Twitch. Young players are picking up the games like Du and Takeuchi. The FGC is fine. What it needs is people like you to stop being so fucking doom & gloom. Chill out.

I hope not. That would likely mean paying him money for his likeness and god forbid they pay for his voice too.

Hopefully they keep the MCU characters in name only. Keep the budget down, ya know.

The main thing I want more than anything out of MvCi is a fun end boss. Something like Apocalypse in XMvSF or Abyss in MvC2. Something where the devs can stretch their legs and have some fun with design.

I was soooooooo happy when she had her EMH VA in Disney Infinity, even if she didn't have her outfit.

I'm only doom and gloom because it's something I love and really want to see it grow. But c'mon man, even fucking Daigo and Momochi are warning us that something has to be done soon. Burying our heads in the sand and saying "Nah it's fine man, EVO was on ESPN" is not going to help.

But thats just it. The older players are welcoming in new players properly on top of the fact that we have expanded coverage. What the hell are you worried about?

Hasn't that kind of always been the case? Marvel has a better big-screen presence but DC takes the fucking cake any day with anything animated. Earths Mightiest Heroes was alright and they couldn't even keep that going.

>but DC takes the fucking cake any day with anything animated.

Except Teen Titans Go. And I REALLY don't expect that new Justice League show to last long.

I am happy Young Justice is getting a season 3 possibly on Netflix, though it'll probably feature Darkseid jobbing to a bunch of kids.

The VAs in the Infinite sound like the EMH cast, but that may just be repurposed lines.

JLA seems fine, imo. I'm honestly not that against standalone action focused 11 minute episodes. Plus they did an SFA2 intro parody and shit was ace as fuck.

I want Disk Wars inspired costume DLC. Wasp was bae there as well.

I'm glad others appreciate the wonder that was EMH Wasp

>The VAs in the Infinite sound like the EMH cast

Except for Captain Marvel.

they can just reskin him.

deadpool needs to come back solely for bantz

...

It's her Super Hero Squad actress.

Would my nigga Demitri be in it with his powers of turning people into cute grills?
