Haha yea that Deadpool vid was great. Love how he uses the health bar as a weapon.

[louiebling$]

try best buy

 

[Jick]

I was taking a look at the trophy/achievement list, and there is this ''A New Avenger - Clear 320 missions in Mission mode.''

Any idea what is this mission mode?

 

[SuperFerret]

Probably really dumb objectives you have to do, like "Win a match using only Captain America's left foot."

It's essentially a more detailed training mode. That guides you through each character's moves/combos.

I'm gonna be playing the full retail version of the game in a few minutes, if anyone has any questions just let me know

 

[Spade]

I'm playing this on the 15th. Gamertag's Wildcard Yogi. Just message me if you want to play.

 

[ProjectPat2280]

Played a quick match with Ryu, Spidey and Deadpool. I love it. It feels so familiar and fresh at the same time. The game also looks so great in motion. The videos don't reslly do it justice. I'm going to play some more when we close.

Apparently X-23's level 3 can immediatly take out Phoenix regardless of what her health is. So if any one plans on playing her, watch out when X-23 has three bars.

I'm changing my XBL tag, but I'm game for the entirety of Tuesday.

Highlights:
-Mega Man, Strider Hiryu, and Phoenix Wright rank high on the DLC requests from fans

Well the actual reason for Strider's exclusion was revealed yesterday. It was what a lot of people speculated. Licensing issues. The demand may be high but he still may not even be DLC now because if this.

 

[Spade]

X-Factored Dark Phoenix deals 1 hit KOs with Phoenix Rage. So that's only a problem if Phoenix doesn't have max meter.

I heard the response from Seth live on stream. I don't buy it. They were citing licensing issues with making this game only three weeks before they announced it. If they know the demand for Strider, odds are he's already in the works or it's never happening. I favor the former.

 

[Jick]

What is the X-Factor in the game?

 

[Jesster32388]

Just paid my collectors edition off competently with trade ins and had a little left over to pre-order Duke Nukem Forever. Can't wait for 12am Tuesday!

 

[venom892]

I don't think were getting Strider.I would love him but I don't see it happening.The only character I think they will definitely do as DLC is Frank West.

 

[Spade]

What is the X-Factor in the game?

You activate X-Factor with L + M + H + S. Ups damage and speed on your team for a short duration.

Humm, but what is L, M, H and S? Buttons on the 360 gamepad?

 

[Spade]

Yes. Light Attack, Medium Attack, Heavy Attack, and Special Attack. L, M, and H are your normal attacks from weakest/fastest to strongest/slowest. The S button is your launcher. It juggles (puts your opponent into the air) and auto-pursuits (brings you up with your opponent), so that you can do air combos. Special moves are made by pressing one of the strength buttons in tandem with a joystick motion. On a 360 controller...? X should be L, Y should be M, B should be H, and A should be S. Shoulder buttons should be to call in assists. I say "should be," because that's how it was when I played it at EVO 2010.

Sorry if all this sounds like I'm talking down to you. Just clearing things up, if you don't know.

That sounds like tatsu except a/launcher was Assist

 

[Spade]

It is, but what's possible in both is very different.

Someone once called me Phoenix Wright with muscles. I called him an ambulance.

Really like the win quotes in this game.

 

[louiebling$]

So out of a Percentage how would you compare TvC to MvC3 control/gameplay wise?

 

[Spade]

They have a lot of basic similarities. MvC2/3 has Advancing Block, TvC has it, etc. Air combos can be better used to zone based on what direction + the S button is used in team air combos. X-Factor is very different from Baroque, even though they're universal power-up states. As well, it doesn't cost meter to do certain team actions like it did in TvC.

On fundamentals...if you did well in TvC, there's no reason you can't do well here. But it's a lot more hectic. More meter means more Hypers, X-Factor is extremely versatile, zoning is a much stronger tactic, and the lack of Mega Crashes will be felt when opponents follow-up knockdown after long combos with specials into more shenanigans.

 

[louiebling$]

Ok thanks... now I have a better idea of what to expect

 

[Proteus-X312]

2 more dayzz now.WOOT!!! So what's up with all of the hype about Frank West as dlc.I really don't see why we need him in this game.I was talking to my friends about this yesterday and one of them said that Frank West is the new face of Capcom so I guess that's almost the same as saying that he is Capcom's new mascot.Idk but someone enlighten me pleez

 

[WolfCypher]

If that were the case, then Capcom must really love NOT including their mascot on the game's default roster, if in the game at all.

But anyway, Frank and Elektra are rumored to be the next next DLC. Even more, Frank, Elektra, Shum-ass, and Jill are rumored to actually be on the disc, and that the downloads for them aren't putting them in the game, but simply allowing you to use characters that are already there.
