If I were to cut this down in half to a pair every other month, then it'd be...

MARVEL

• Star-Lord**
• Ms. Marvel**
• Loki**
• Wolverine
• Deadpool
• Doctor Doom*

CAPCOM

• Phoenix Wright
• Wesker
• Vergil
• Akuma
• Asura**
• Lady**

* = This is assuming that Capcom sealed the deal for this character before Marvel doubled down on the F4 ban. In this scenario, replace the character with Daredevil
** = This is assuming that this character doesn't get in Season 1.

Yeah, every other month seems more reasonable. My list would be similar with Lady swapped out for Ammy. Despite Lady's relative popularity, I just don't see them prioritizing the character, I'd be pleasantly surprised if she eventually gets in though. Most likely they'd probably bring Trish back.

 

[Ryce]

I doubt there will be any announcements at D23, just a playable build on the floor.

 

[enzo_gt]

An older build at EVO would be really crummy, but I guess it's happening and we'll have to wait for SDCC.

 

[Jawmuncher]

I doubt there will be any announcements at D23, just a playable build on the floor.

That'd be whack. But considering the game isn't part of the stream it seems likely.
Which is hella whack.

 

[Doctrine Dark]

Hopefully it'll have Gamora.

 

[IntelliHeath]

Eh no? it clearly says

Obviously. My point is there are some people expecting some news at D23 so I want to point it out that we probably wouldn't get any reveals from there.

So I wonder if it meant anything for MVCI this weekend at D23?

Count the number of things in the boxes.

Spoiler

Worked for UMVC3

Catching up on the thread, I'm shocked that I forgot about Loki as a possible playable character. Part of me feels as though that should he be in, he will probably would be at later time. Probably would have been a hell of an additional for the initial roster, and I wouldn't be shocked at all if he just so happens to be one of the six DLCs as apart of the deluxe edition.

I think if the communication from Capcom was there, the backlash wouldn't be as strong. Granted, the graphics are still...what they are, and the roster is still ass. Despite that, I feel if anyone from Capcom maintained any form of communication close to what Seth did for MVC3, things might not be as bad. These instances of announcing something, then going silent, then popping up to show something, and going silent again are rather odd for a game that's out in a few months.

Seth was demoing characters like a few days after their trailer was released, if not the following day. We've had nothing like that.

This kind of goes without saying. Had the communication been stronger and more straight forward than it has been, most of us probably would have been like, "Well that sucks that the X-men got cut, but at least the other characters are looking good." instead of "You only wanted them because of how they functioned in the game! You wouldn't have remembered them otherwise!" (massive paraphrasing here, but you get the idea).

The marketing behind a product fails if people are more worried that the product is coming so soon rather than chomping at the bit to buy it. I don't think it's farfetched that more people would buy DBFZ in its current state than MVCI in its current state, today.

Part of me wonders how this will translate to this weekend. With the "Tournament" for DBFZ this weekend (and how it already reached its max limit in terms of entries), how this will turn out as compared to whatever MvC:I might have (if there will even be the same kind of showcase). Definitely will be fun to watch since you could say that EVO will give us a more definitive answer than E3 in terms of feedback from the FGC.

"f(x)-men"

 

[christiankid7]

I wonder if we could get dual reveals from D23 and Evo, sort of like how it happened with PSX and then Capcom Cup

Maybe a story trailer at D23 and then a message that says "Watch Street Fighter V Finals on ESPN2 for more" where they show off the gameplay trailer.

Something like that.

 

[Harpoon]

Rocket #4's MvCI cover.

 

[Lulubop]

We told ya sdcc is where it's going to go down. Listen to me.

 

[christiankid7]

Guess that means repeats will happen....

 

[IntelliHeath]

We told ya sdcc is where it's going to go down. Listen to me.

Hmmm?

They're going to being showing shit at d23, sdcc and maybe evo. This is absolutely huge month for the game. DR2k is full of shit and I'm not sure why people are still humoring him at this point

It's okay to admit that we're wrong on that matters if it didn't happens.

 

[Jawmuncher]

I still think D23 will have something.

 

[Neoxon]

We told ya sdcc is where it's going to go down. Listen to me.

Was it confirmed that there wouldn't be any MvCI reveals at EVO?

 

[Lulubop]

Hmmm?

Well I was going with what Ryce was saying in that we'll see gamora at d23, since she's already in the e3 build seemingly.

 

[IntelliHeath]

Well I was going with what Ryce was saying in that we'll see gamora at d23, since she's already in the e3 build seemingly.

She's not in E3 Build or we would have saw the video of her being playable.

 

[christiankid7]

Why are Rocket Raccoon and X fighting in Kazakh from Strider? New Stage?

The rest have been sorta generic buildings in the background but that is definitely Kazakh

 

[Lulubop]

She's not in E3 Build or we would have saw the video of her being playable.

We still saw her in game, the same day. Point is she has been revealed, so at most I was expecting to see her in game which is new but not really.

 

[IntelliHeath]

Yeah, we got three pictures of her in the battle so I don't deny that but I'm just saying that she's not playable in E3 Demo or people would have made the video of her from those demo stations.You said that Gamora is in E3 build (I presume you meant E3 Demo Build so she's not in the demo at all at the moment )

 

[Lulubop]

I know that, I'm just saying all I'd expect from d23 would be her shown playable which is new but not really. Mostly piggyback off of what Ryce thought in his post for awhile back.

 

[IntelliHeath]

Did we already have a stage from Strider right? If it's a hint so we might get two stages from Strider.

 

[Negaduck]

Rockets right hand gun shot looks weird.

 

[PSqueak]

A cool nod from an artist that is fan of the series?

Wouldn't mind some classic or non merged levels.

 

[christiankid7]

Maybe


If Kazakh is also a stage there's quite a lot of Strider in this game, maybe Meio will be playable

 

[Jawmuncher]

With Strider potentially playing a decent part in the game. Would not surprise me he has a level in this.
Kazakh would be a good interesting level.

 

[Lulubop]

I thought that one level was Strider's and Thanos?

 

[Ryce]

I thought that one level was Strider's and Thanos?

It's Third Moon (Strider) merged with Knowhere (Guardians of the Galaxy).

 

[Neoxon]

Yeah, every other month seems more reasonable. My list would be similar with Lady swapped out for Ammy. Despite Lady's relative popularity, I just don't see them prioritizing the character, I'd be pleasantly surprised if she eventually gets in though. Most likely they'd probably bring Trish back.

I mean, the door for Lady is wide open now that Dante's Kalina Ann moves were axed.

 

[Lulubop]

It's Third Moon (Strider) merged with Knowhere (Guardians of the Galaxy).

Ok yea, so Strider already has a level.

 

[IntelliHeath]

Ok yea, so Strider already has a level.

Yes but it wouldn't stop them from adding other Strider stage if it's in case. We have two stages from Xsgard

 

[kirblar]

EVO = mostly SFV announcements
SDCC = mostly MvC:I announcements

It's what makes sense for the respective audiences.

 

[Doctrine Dark]

I'll be glad when we see a New York based stage like Hell's Kitchen or something.

 

[JeTmAn81]

Why can't you control which way you dash during the Time Surge? This bugs me.

Edit: just found a couple things I didn't know.

1. Holding the tag button at round start lets you tag to your other character.

2. Thor's hammer throw can escape the Shame Cube.

 

[kirblar]

No one wants to play against Rose.

 

[Motion Picture Soundtrack]

No one wants to play against Rose.

I mean, clearly someone on the development team liked her reflect.

 

[IntelliHeath]

I'll be glad when we see a New York based stage like Hell's Kitchen or something.

Hells Kitchen x Metro City sounds too good to happens unfortunately.

 

[Doctrine Dark]

Yep. It makes way too much sense as a fused stage. That's why it won't happen.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Yep. It makes way too much sense as a fused stage. That's why it won't happen.

lol

with capcom, never expect the obvious

 

[Doctrine Dark]

Expected.

 

[Lulubop]

Expected.

damn, that one is cool

 

[tribal24]

damn, that one is cool

yeah that one looks great aswell. Are they just trickling out daily these variant covers or are they leaking from previews world.

 

[Lulubop]

What was the Thor one?

 

[Jawmuncher]

Didn't think chris would get on a cover

 

[christiankid7]

What was the Thor one?

Not revealed yet, they just finally replaced the incorrect variant today

 

[SaikyoBro]

Looking like nothing at Evo?? Huge bummer if that's true, I wanted to be there for a live reveal :[ gonna be disappointed if all we see is a lame ass Abigail trailer

 

[christiankid7]

This message is on these covers
Spider-man/Deadpool ( we know its Firebrand/Dormammu)
Venom
Defenders
Amazing Spider-man

Considering Dorm/FB
Maybe characters on these variants will be revealed this weekend?

 

[Doctrine Dark]

Yay.

 

[christiankid7]

Iron Man

 

[IntelliHeath]

Avengers

My wild guess is Daredevil being one of three Marvel DLC.
