I don't know how Capcom made Marvel 3 with 36 built from scratch characters on a new engine, most of which were never in a Marvel game before.

I guess TvC helped but there is still not a lot of crossover from that game.

And people still gave Marvel 3 shit for its roster yet the effort put into that was miles ahead of Infinite.

The thing is they just did it with SFV and that was 16 that is now at 25 soon to be 26.
 
Wouldn't that be 8?
X
Captain Marvel
Ultron
Thanos
Jedah
Venom
Monster Hunter
Gamora

and possibly Ant-Man/Winter Soldier and two Capcom guys
8!

The returning character may be 95% copy paste, but because of their changes and the system as a whole, everyone I tried felt completely fresh.
Oh, I'm sure Dormammu will feel like a whole new bag. I have a light expectation that they will at least change up his Dark Spells, since they are the most flexible aspect of his character.

No green goblin and I'll be upset. That said j think we'll get reveals that coincide with the covers, huh? Next ones are Aug.2?
Capcom pretty much has to reveal at least Firebrand and Dormammu before August 2, even if it's just a, "hey, these characters are in the game!" blog post with a screen or two.

That's when the comic comes out correct?
Yeah. The following are releasing on August 2:

All-New Guardians of the Galaxy #7 (Gamora vs. Strider Hiryu)
Avengers #10 (Ultron vs. Sigma)
Champions #11 (Nova vs. Zero)
Hawkeye #9 (Hawkeye vs. Dante)
Spider-Man #19 (???)
Spider-Man/Deadpool #20 (Dormammu vs. Firebrand)
 
They did with SF4 too but Marvel 3 beat both by twice as much.
In retrospect, MvC3 was very impressive in terms of original content developed for that game. Has the production price of that game ever been publicly released? Depending on how high the price was, Capcom may have justified funding that by fully planning to reuse those assets in the near future.
 
What would be the minimum number of characters on the default roster that would satisfy you?

# of Newcomers/returning from 2 or earlier?
# returning from 3?

I've been fully expecting 34 characters from the very start (check my reciepts on GFAQs), but with a much better mix of new(ish) to old. I think i expected something like 10-15 new/revamped vets to about 25 MvC3 vets.

At least 30 characters, 10 of which newcomers, was what I personally wanted. Though in the end it didn't matter because the characters I want most are either guaranteed to be in or out at launch.

I mean if we are talking about copy/pasting over Marvel 3 then 50 was the minimum that people could reasonably expected where 38 would be from Marvel 3 and 12 would be brand new. This is not counting for X Men ban though.

With X Men ban I would've expected 40 characters day 1 with 30/10 old to new.

I don't have a big fixation for brand new characters as most.

Look at how Smash does it. Almost everyone from the last game + a bunch of hype newcomers.

That's satisfying to me.

Man, that was one of greatest time I had on NeoGAF. We finally got the game like after a decade and the pace of reveals and announcements were superior to MVCI. We got new information every month unlike MVCI.


The reminder of U/MVC3 hype train.

Don't mean to Bump and old quote but I made a new version for Infinite

feel free to add names and anything if you think somethings missing
 
Since its possible that MODOK is not in the .zip files because he's in the stage files, is it possible that he could still be playable but have all his files in the stage section? I don't know how this stuff works.

I just think its really weird/sad a returning character from 3 won't be playable but will still be in the game

When it come down to Capcom games, I'm getting used to see many characters getting cut every time they made new iterations. That's their mottos with fighting games.

Ironically it's completely different when it come down to Smash Bros. RIP Snake and Ice Climbers.

Its not that he's cut, tons of characters are cut, I'm okay with that. I never really played Modok much either.

Its that he's a returning character that's supposed to be in the story mode. That just bothers me

I redid this to include the other DLC characters I'm like 90% sure are in because why not.



I also removed the guesses from that in case some creep actually prefers this formatting.
Nice, though I somehow doubt Loki. I just don't feel it.

---

I want new Strider costume for Strider Hiryu, cause the plasma scarf is cool.
I want Lilith for Morrigan.
I want Mega Man Zero Zero, complete with gun rather than buster.

DmC Dante for Dante.

pls dont

EDIT: Beard Ryu and "cosmic" Gamora (Black Vortex)!

Actually, just for fun, I'd love to see them apply some generic enemy skins to the main cast, as unusually-cheap DLC. Like dress up Strider as a Hand Ninja, make Ryu into a Generic Mad Gear Thug, dress up Captain America as that shield guy who'se in every Megaman, etc.

Would be a nice to thing to use for other modes (like maybe missions that have us fighting teams of soldiers with simple movesets liek the XGards, to get to a boss character), and could lead to a few fun throwbacks here and there.
 
Some I want to see are:

-Spider-Gwen over Spider-Man (Mask off or optional pls)
-Not sure if possible due to hitboxes, but a Symbiote Spider-man over Venom
-Obligatory Ms. Marvel over Captain Marvel
-Classic Gamora with the hood
-SFV Battle Outfit Chun-Li (Oddly enough I feel as if this will be her Premium in MvCI)
-Streetwise Haggar
-Dominatrix Morrigan (from her VSav winpose)
-SFV Prototype Ryu
-Reboot Strider
-Midnight Bliss Jedah
-Female Kirin Armor MonHun (assuming he/she isn't already wearing such)
-Superior Spider-man over Doc Ock (if he's DLC)

Edit: Added pics for all of them. Damn, that's a lot of work.
 
Another outfit I want, but doubt it'll appear... Nurse Morrigan.

I want classic Ms. Marvel for Carol.

I also pretty much want the alts that came with all the characters for MvC3.

I actually forgot to say that, but yeah, I would love that for her.

While out of character a Mr. X alt would be cool for Nemesis.

I'd be interested in getting Lost in Nightmares Chris as well.

It came across my mind as well whenever I was thinking of Nemesis outfits. At this point they'll just be making up an outfit.

Chris needs his Samurai outfit. :p

I want new Strider costume for Strider Hiryu, cause the plasma scarf is cool.
I want Lilith for Morrigan.
I want Mega Man Zero Zero, complete with gun rather than buster.

So, you're gonna team up Strider with Command Mission X. :p


Oi! So that's where that outfit is from? I want that as Gamora's outfit as well. It's looks pretty damn awesome.

See, this was fucking fan service right here. All of these alternate colours have different designs across the model and are not just colour swaps. I don't see them going even half as far with the references and probably doing a basic color swap. I mean, we're already down 2 default colours.

Agreed though I feel space texture is overplayed.
I'm a sucker for this shit. Gimme new Captain Universe while we're at it.
