This new gameplay with Frank is honestly getting me very hyped again. All I needed was to have one character I care about appear so I can finally get excited for this game.

Now give me back Phoenix Wright, Capcom.
 
I played 4 hours of this at Capcom yesterday and I can answer questions about the build. I didn't really zero in on any given character so I won't be able to get too technical on any given one (and I don't think Capcom wants us getting too specific about specials inputs as they're one of the last things that can change) but I dabbled with everyone to just get a feel for stuff.

I wrote a thing too:

I think Gamora is amazing, and Nemesis has armor on loads of moves and is an absolute beast because of it.

New stage preview in press materials?

EDIT: I guess it's from the Story outside of the AIMbrella area, but still could be a stage like XGard has multiple.

All I can say about that is that Capcom provided the screenshots after I left their office via email, but if you notice -- the stage they revealed today is A.I.M.brella, and that's the building in the very back of that screenshot.

The Xgard stage has a few different locations/versions - inside the throne room, outside on the bridge - so I wouldn't be surprised if this is the outside variant of the aimbrella stage - but it wasn't playable in this build.

Can you elaborate more on the Mind Stone's Infinity Surge?

From videos it seems like it puts you in a hard knockdown state (not even like a bounce which is more common in MvC:I) and prepares you for a wakeup more than it looks like a "stun" state as I see it described, as nobody seems to combo out of it in the videos we've seen. Or is the window really short?

It's a hard knockdown followed by a stun state that basically works like a Street Fighter dizzy state - they stand stunned for a few moments with stars around their head and you can then capitalize on that to set up something bigger off the opening (like using the downtime to drop Frank's tripod ready to photograph a combo, for instance). It's a command grab, so it can't be teched, not even by another Mind Stone, I think.

Don't sleep on this 12 minute IGN Gameplay Video of the new characters y'all, this has by far some of the best combos/play we've seen thus far for the game.

Also more gameplay from Maximilian.

This is interesting, thanks for the clarification.
 
I'm glad that Haggar has finally been shown, but...something about this game still feels off-putting to me.


It's strange that this game is coming out in almost two months, and I'm not that hyped about it.

Haggar looked really off to me the moment the trailer began. As soon as he came on screen, I had to pause.

Looks like Peter's a high school student as of MvCI (it's at 4:16 in Max's video, specifically as a Frank quote to Spider-Man).

yeah, spidey mentions being inexperienced too so it's more shitty high school Spider-Man for everyone.

Considering how the MCU is approaching Spider-Man & the fact that they got Robbie Daymond to voice Peter, it's not that surprising.

At least we have the Insomniac game for an older, more experienced Spider-Man.

The game is definitely looking better than recent showings IMO. It's gonna be hard to overcome the negativity surrounding the game.

I'm slowly hyping back up again.
 
I cant get over the menus and UI.

Everyone says the game looks better but its lacking personality still.

Everyone seems to look better in the AIMbrella stage than anything else. The lighting on other stages washes everything out.

Man the YouTube comments on ign video is nothing but negative.

Public perception of the game is in the shitter. First impressions are hard to get over and MVCI had a horrible one.
