One thing I don't understand is why people use hypers in the end of giant combo strings.

You are wasting a bar for near-zero damage. Am I missing something?
People still have Marvel 3 muscle memory and their estimation for damage on hypers is still off. This will be fine tuned over the game's life.

Oh man, these reality stones are SOMETHING....

I gotta figure out a combo that puts me into morrigan astral vision time stone burst bullet hell.

I cannot get over how fucking cool Ghost Rider's bike is in this. Like seriously just do a basic ground combo without using an OTG or wall bounce, go straight into the bike, cruise for a sec, turn around, hit the guy again, wheelie, and then spike after you jump off the bike.

God damn it just looks so fucking cool. I could do that all day. Using Ryu on my team right now just so I can get a Shinku Hadouken after the spike lol. Along with the projectile armor, his bike is what it what it should have been in UMvC3. Bad ass as fuck.
 
Highlight comment from a session with some friends last night - definitely wont apply to all but dude kept calling reality stone "Golden Correality Stone" like the rather shitty buffet

Had me dying

This game is going to be so hype when the X Men come in.

Mostly because all these people playing Ultron were actually Magnus players. And the Chun players really want to be playing Wolverine to RTSD.

As in "Heathcliff"
Finally finished the story mode. It was cheesy as heck but fun in weird way. Are they actually planning for second story mode since it seems that way when they ended like that?

Yo, real talk, Gamora's gonna get nerfed HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARD

Those guns are way too good. Having full screen pressure off two button presses is way too much.

If you are having trouble finding matches then go into training mode and set to fight request on. This is how it kinda worked in SFV too at the start, you get matches faster from training mode for whatever reason.

Search mode doesn't seem to actually be working at all, but fight request is doing swimmingly.

Omg thank you! I was waiting for the past 20 minutes and doing this worked right away.

Haven't had time to follow or play the game yet, only did one arcade mode and tutorial so far. Are there any videos out there to look at for characters like Dante,Nova, and Jedah?

It just doesn't feel like Marvel without my precious X-Men.

This game is fun, but it feels like Marvel has sucked the soul out of it. MvC was always about jazz music and sentient cactusmen, and now it just feels so safe and bland.

I just hope the game has a long lifespan. I'd love to see every MvC3 and MvC2 character eventually added via DLC, and maybe they can throw a little bit of that MvC funk in there as we go along.

Exactly one game had a cactus and jazz.

This feels like an old game with a new sheen and it's amazing.

The tag system is one of the craziest/dynamic mechanics in a vs game. Only one game had a Jazzy soundtrack.

More than half the mvc2 roster needs to never touch a vs game again.

When you're playing Spidey and you tag him in immediately during an aerial spike and nail the opponent with the heavy (wall bounce) version of Spider Cannon as they're flying towards the ground at maximum velocity.

I love doing impractical but cool shit. I don't care if follow ups are limited, this is what action cartoons and comic book panels are made of. The tag system is the best thing ever.

Man, after doing story, plenty of arcade runs, and about 7 online matches, I'm finally in the lab, and holy shit. The potential for the tag system. Jesus christ. I'm going to be in this game forever.

And that cactus, jazz combo was amazing.

Like I said, the game play great. The infinity stone system in particular is really cool. I like the game, but it is missing the flair and character that MvC2 and 3 had.

Is it too early for anyone in here to be able to rank characters in terms of difficulty to play?

Like, Ultron on paper seems pretty easy, but has a high skill ceiling.

I'm trying to gauge what may be the more "newb friendly" characters.

Thanos is pretty easy to pick up. You can get like 6000 with a simple ABCD relaunch combo into his air super.

Making a list of this too.

Right now these characters are newb friendly (but some may high ceiling too):

Ghost Rider, Nova, Gamora, Iron Man, Nemesis, Hulk, Haggar, Thanos and MMX are the easiest. Ryu is easy too but he's hard to actually win with LOL!



As a reminder for folks, my mechanics summary is still up and updated frequently as more tech and mechanics are discovered in the game. It should give you an idea of the amount of hidden mechanics in the game:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1JomswsMlq1Pjd0v6KT_SnAoPbuMydEaCSR_Eou9lhSA/edit#

It's a lengthy read but it's a complicated game so I didn't want to leave any stone unturned. There is still a lot to add to it as we get more concrete information about the game.


There will be a part 2 to this coming soon where I go over more specific parts of the game aimed at helping new players.

Thank you!

Anyone also able to tell me how I unlock colors for characters?

Shame the game wasn't all that great but I really loved the concept art and the updated designs for the classic characters like solo and tong poo too.

It was my first experience with the series, and I'm quite partial to it. I would put it up there with Bionic Commando: Rearmed.

Woooo I made it to rank 10 and got that trophy. Feeling good.

Is rank 10 that hard to reach?

Still no platinums on PS4!

Just to judge how hard it is. I went 71-15 to make it to rank 10. Then I lost 2 straight and now i'm sitting at 80% of rank 11.



Also, anyone want to boost fighting all characters online so I can get the platinum? lol
