well guess I finally have to put down on a new fight stick with Tekken 7 and now this out in 2017


How is that new Razer Panthera? Looks pretty good from what people have said so far
 
People can't even decide if they want to bring their own stick to a tournament, you really think they're gonna agree on a baseline fantasy patch? AND have tournaments for it?

I don't think that's the biggest issue.

The issue is logistically people aren't gonna lug around a bunch of PCs for a fan patched Mahvel 3.

Project M was niche but relatively successful for what it was due to the ease of modding Wiis (which were also brought around for Melee/Brawl tourneys), and homebrew being advanced enough that it just loaded the fan patch with an SD card. There isn't a solution similar to this for any of the platforms UMvC3 is on or will be on.
 
Do we know the price yet?

Yes, directly from the Marvel website.

people will play what's produced. you saw it with Project M.

Like I stated above, it's not the same thing. People need to stop thinking fan patches will ever reach the tourney popularity of Project M's peak unless it's logistically easy for tourneys to have it.

If there were an easy way to patch the PS4/Xbox One/360/PS3 versions of Mahvel it may have a shot. And thinking PC tourneys will work for fan patched Mahvel 3 tourneys is just unrealistic.

I doubt you'd need more than a modest gaming laptop.

People aren't gonna run tourneys on laptops in decent numbers though for a fan patch lol
That's not even getting into driver issues and shit

Who the hell talked about competition?

Just make a fan patch for fun.

I agree, it'd be great to have one for fun.

But people going "OH SHIT THIS WILL BE THE CHANCE FOR A PROJECT M[AHVEL] FOR TOURNEYS" clearly has no idea why Project M was successful in the first place.

magneto had a costume from the "house of m" comic that was released, but it was a direct ripoff of a picture of the prince of spain so they got capcom to remove the costume from umvc3 and it hasn't been back since. yes, seriously lol.

Not to go on a limb and defend our good former King, but the artist literally pasted Magneto's face over Juan Carlos's body :p

Anyway, I'll be double dipping on PS4 now and PC next year. I've always had a lot of fun with MvC1 and 2 offline, so getting destroyed online doesn't really bother me.

Sony timed exclusive money hatting this kind of third party stuff is so fucking hilarious.

How'd you mean ? That they pay for timed exclusivity , or that they are doing so with a title like this in particular ? Eitherway, I don't see your point - then again, I guess I'm overthinking a shitpost.

A bunch of other stuff they released today is already up since an hour or two (Lara Croft Go, Garou among others). Release the game already, it's 11pm here and I want to play it before going to sleep :D

I'm not an NPC. And neither are we.

I dont think there is precedence for the money hatting of a remaster. It does seem sort of peculiar, but Im guessing this is all Disney was willing to budge for any sort of deal with Sony. Disney wants everyone's money.

Can someone who has a PS3 fightstick test it with the PS4 version when it's out? This is a dealbreaker for me.

Is it worth staying up to wait for the EU PSN to update, or is it not gonna update any more tonight?

I'm wondering the same. Kinda sucks when they announce it as 'Out now' and now it's been over 4 hours and still nothing...I didn't expect it to be immediate, but expected something by now.
 
Waiting for this store to update is dreadful, especially when everything else that was announced to be out today is already out. Just waiting on this and Let It Die. :/
 
What does 'bad netcode' mean for the uninitiated fighting game player?
When you play online, your button inputs may or may not register
If the game is feeling particularly feisty, it'll force quit and make you watch Superman 4
On topic, bad netcode means generally bad online

It's bad no matter how good your connection is to your opponent. It slows down the game and makes everything feel unresponsive.

FWIW, Marvel 3's netcode doesnt fit this description. I've hit Lightning Loops and Doom infinite online and generally have a good time.

Actually the king then, and the current ex-king (he abdicated, his son is currently the king).
Source: I'm Spanish and think both the cover and the costume are awesome, and a shame the latter was removed.
