Marvel vs. Capcom 3 - Part 2

[Matt Mortem]

She's ALWAYS on my team. I love how quick you can kick ass with her combo's. I usually use a team of X-23, Akuma (or Cap) and Hulk. Hulk is surprisingly quick and useful for his size.

 

[Nathan]

I hope she gets something like this.

 

[javi1024]

Love me some X-23. When they get around to giving her an alternate costume, I hope she gets this.

They'll probably give her the X-force costume though

i was thinking when i was playing last night, why didnt they repaint Wolverine's brown and X-Force alternates. if they can turn Cap into Captain Punisher, and give Spidey four completely different costumes then theres no reason they just color swap for Wolverine. and same goes for Cap: green and magenta alternate from MvC2? really? they never heard of U.S.Agent at Capcom?

 

[Nathan]

Capcom is weird sometimes. A lot of times you see them pull out some pretty obscure stuff out of nowhere, and you just know they went through the entire lore of whatever they were researching. And then you get baffeling stuff like the omission of something obvious as U.S. Agent.

If anyone that has XBL is interested my gamertag is KCJ506.

Hulk's improvement reminds me of Donkey Kong's in the Smash Bros. series.

 

[Spidey321]

Alright, that was the last time playing MvC3 for me. Giving the game back to the video store and waiting for my copy of the game to arrive in the mail.

Nice matches btw, Spidey321. X-23 is wicked, isn't she?

Yeah GG there and yeah she's sick in the game

 

[MarvelWarrior]

I love Hulk. This version is the first time I've used a big/grappler on my team a lot of times. I've been playing mostly Player matches because Ranked keeps setting me up with people who are higher than me in rank. Anyone know when Capcom will fix the Ranked feature? And anyone know what the Events are? I've seen them listed on the title screen.

 

[jacobed]

My favorite team right now is Hulk, Captain America, and Thor. It's a nasty combination. Also X-23, Wolverine, and Spider-Man is a great team, almost impossible to even put a hand on them they're all so fast.

 

[Figs]

It's been a long time since I've played a MVC game before, but they made the timing on these combos ****ing harder.

Did anyone else have trouble pulling of an air small attack right after an air heavy attack????????

The ****ing character I'm hitting drops or is too high to get that small attack off.

 

[Nathan]

I think that's normal. That's why the training missions usually have air combos that start with middle attacks. Low attacks are short range, so it's no surprise if opponents are out of range after a middle or high attack.

 

[venom892]

So the results of that DLC poll out yet??

 

[Nathan]

There are supposed to be out at the end of February. People have to go through a couple thousand posts. That takes time.

Got any good tips for playing Thor? I've won a few matches with him Cap and Iron Man but it was tough. I find Hulk to be faster than him.

Really? I found it ALOT easier to combo and connect specials in this game. I played MvC2 for comparison and they really simplified things to make it more accessible. The fact that there are less buttons to worry about makes it that much easier

Haha I don't think you want tips from me, I'm definitely 0-10 online so far haha I'm absolutely god awful but I refuse to rage quit. Hulk is much faster than Thor but I find Thor to be much more beastly, when he can get going on a combo the opponent's life bar drains pretty quickly.

 

[Nathan]

I'm not good with Thor at all. I need fast people, Thor might be devastating, but if I can't pull off a quick combo, I'm useless.

 

[Matt Mortem]

If Thor was faster I would probably use him. Same with Dormammu

 

[Figs]

I think that's normal. That's why the training missions usually have air combos that start with middle attacks. Low attacks are short range, so it's no surprise if opponents are out of range after a middle or high attack.

That's ****ed up. That means that you can't complete those training missions if you're unable to pull of that last low attack in the air.

I have a really, really hard time believing this. Back with MvC2, I used to own with that cactus guy. I was able to pull off the huge combos with ease. With MvC3, if you're the tiniest of a fraction too fast or slow, you're ****ed. I don't get. Maybe I'm just getting old and don't have perfect reflexes anymore.

 

[Nathan]

That's ****ed up. That means that you can't complete those training missions if you're unable to pull of that last low attack in the air.

Try to attack as soon as you get off the ground. That way you should have enough time to connect the last hit. It's not necessary to reach a certain height before you can start a combo.

Is that what you find works? Not exactly timing it, but just pushing the right buttons as fast as possible or do you have to actually slow it down a tad to time it?

I think what you said is my problem. I'm waiting too long. All I know is I don't want to throw my controller across the room anymore. t:

I won't go online until I can get these combos down or I'm ****ed.

 

[Nathan]

I'm sure there are probably combos that require a certain timing. Can't really say though since I haven't bothered to try everyone out. I only know I tried Deadpool's Mission a lot. And kept failing. Then I reached the point where I just said **** it, and just started to input the commands as fast as possible. Eventually I managed to pull off the combo.

 

[Figs]

Thanks for the help. I'll have to cool down for awhile before I try again.

You're talking about on Capcom Unity right? I think they're pretty much done.

I don't think we'll be getting both Venom and Carnage. One symbiote is enough IMO. If Venom ends up as DLC, I will laugh if it's the Flash Thompson version. The people expecting Eddie Brock or even Mac Gargan will rage hard.

The fact that Ken is so high disgusts me. All the more unique SF characters available they're picking someone who has the same fightinh style as two characters that are already in. I bet you some of them were the same people complaining about X-23 and She-Hulk being "clones".
