I didn't know that the Tekken characters, new backgrounds, new moves, new art, new CG, and marketing didn't cost anything!

That would cost more than making a game from the ground up?

MVC3 - A game made from scratch

SFXT - A game that recycles a ton of assets

Sorry but I can't see how SFXT could cost more than MVC3 to make.

I think SFxT may have been the most heavily marketed Capcom game of all time. I saw ads for that mother fucker everywhere.

Too bad it's shit.

Some of the SF roster (barring a couple of characters) reuse some assets. The rest of the game is indeed built from the ground up. You're trying to paint the game like it's an SF4 patch when the game plays completely different.

The game had so much potential. It's a shame all the negative shit had to happen.

MVC3 wasn't totally from scratch I would say. It uses an in house engine that has been used many times for different genres. Plus I think they were using TVC as a baseline.

Have you never heard of Tatsunoko vs Capcom? MVC3 was definitely not built from scratch and even had the same director of TVC work on it.

Indeed.

I spent like 2 hours in the training mode total for Skull Girls and I swear I have better BnB than most of the guys on the Spooky stream. Glad that a lot of players are liking Skull Girls.

LI Joe's gameplay is legit though. Lots of folks at Big Two are looking way greener on the game compared to the stuff we've seen in the midwest(Powerup) and the West coast.

I expect things to improve quickly. Japan scares me more than any other region to be honest.

Ah, well. 2-2 is better than 0-2.

In other news, I finally got an HDMI cable long enough to watch Team Spooky on the TV. Nothing like drunk Art on the plasma, lol.

[enzo_gt]

IIRC, TvC and MvC3 don't share an engine. MvC3 uses MTF2.0 and TvC does not and uses an engine specifically made for the Wii; however stuff from TvC did carry over, I just don't think any raw resources created from TvC did, just gameplay stuff. So yeah, more from scratch than not. Just because it uses an engine made in-house doesn't mean Niitsuma's team had experience with it before MvC3, especially for making fighting games (which is highly unlikely). SFxTK uses a modified version of the SF4/SSF4 engine, and reuses assets.

It's kind of hard to compare how much work was done on one game vs. the other. SFxTK has had a lot poured into features and heavily modifying a lot of engine stuff, while re-using assets. MvC3 has less features, but was, pretty much, built from the ground up. From the netcode to the actual combat engine. From what I see from here, MvC3 appears like it *would* have cost more to develop.

IDK how we would know for sure if we don't see their budgets. Does DIMPS charge more than Eighting? Are the teams the same size? Were the same man hours put into both? Does one dev have better tools to get stuff done faster? Who knows.

All I know is, where is Cyberbots 2.

[Face it Tiger..]

Finally. I'm free now.

Phoenix couldn't kill Mahvel. Not even Dante could do it with his SSS "sexy sons of Sparda" quicksilver glitch, but Morrigan just killed SFxT and is eating dudes alive(pun not intended lol) in Mahvel. This lady is nuts.

Morrigan>Every other fighting game character in existence

It's a Morrigan joke, not dissing SFxT.

Have they said if they are going to patch that shit or are they done with Marvel?

PR Rog using Jill and RR now. His Jill is all sorts of terrible though.

I only saw Pamyu OCV a team on last nights 5vs5 tourney, but gawt damn it was good to see him beasting again. Hopefully get to see more of him at tourneys.

That's pretty cool. If the options are in Roman characters as well, they might be expecting votes from outside the country, so it probably wouldn't hurt to participate.

edit: I just spread my votes around to the names that I recognize for now, so I gave one to each of these players:

abegen
Haunts
fubarduck
ふり～だ (Frieda)
まめスパイダー (Mame Spider)

Well actually they put in Roman characters thanks to a suggestion from fubarduck (JP). But yeah, same deal.

Ha, my mistake. Well, if it wasn't for that tweet, I might have passed on it altogether, so I guess it ended up in fubarduck's favor in more than one way.

Morrigan's soul fist trap is not an easy tactic at all. Why would it need to be patched out?

Ask anybody who attempts it, the way Chris G does it with very few shadow blade inputs is amazing.

For real though, anyone have a link to the archive with the crazy Morrigan play? I'm not even sure where I should be looking under. :lol

[RellyRell28]

PR Rog using Jill and RR now. His Jill is all sorts of terrible though.

I hope he improves with here though. I believe it was DanstheMan at NCR who had a really good Jill making top 32.

Also Consol Combat is on now

Yeah, he obviously just started using her - his movement was still pretty basic and he was having trouble feral cancelling during combos.

WindZero has a great anchor Jill.

Oh yeah I forgot to mention, the full list of players for the SSFIV AE concept match on April 29 at Cho Tougeki was announced:
