Mission mode combo difficulty shouldn't tell you which character to pick especially in this game. Most Mission mode combos are kinda jank and unoptimized anyway or unnecessarily hard with little reward.All Hulk missions complete, much easier than Hawkeye, jesus christ
Maybe I should stick to these big lumbering guys
I suck

Meeeeeeeeeh.
Just received my copy, I got it with a heavy discount (55$ CAD) due to an Amazon glitch...yet I'm tempted to return it. I have plenty of fighting games coming (Xenoverse 2 and Pokkén on Switch next week) The character-based service kind of turns me off and the game doesn't look too good at first glance.
Convince me GAF, is it good? Is the campaign OK? OTs always have that touch to reinsure me. :lol

Yeah I just finished it lol, its obviously not good but it's still pretty stupid fun to see all the characters interacting. Thanos' voice is so bad though.
Game play is god damn nice in this game, netcode is good too so far.
Campaign is just cheesy Saturday morning cartoon non sense if you are into that.
CA is gone but it still looks kinda blurry for some reason.

What's your training regime?
I'm gonna learn about six characters, practice their normals, special moves, and general moveset about ten times each per character daily. After that, it's watching videos, hammering down notes, and compiling some BnBs. I'll take some time every day to practice basic stuff so that it feels familiar, like tagging on moves, wavedashes, stuff like that. I'll probably attempt the trials every other day to up my execution and try not to mash.
Will probably play about ten matches every day once I feel a little better about my teams and what they can do.

Are you looking for a single player or multiplayer experience?

Since you got it really incredibly cheap so you are more likely to get your price worth it. I just can't put my controller down ever since I got it.
Honestly if it delivers both I'm OK with that.
I'm used to play MvC arcade modes only, but I love that they did play it Netherealm Studios style this time around and kind of curious to see what this is about, unless it's like, abysmally bad.
EDIT: AH FUCK IT, I'll unwrap it and blow the dust off my RAP4 KAI, thanks guys.

I'm absolutely, totally into that. So thanks, that cheers me up a bit.
I actually kind of prefer it to MK and Injustice due to the cheese. Nothing wrong with Netherrealm but their stories can be a tad melodramatic.
The training stage wall textures are just fucked up like that.
It's amazing they can make a simple training room a blurry eysore.
This game still looks bad on PC. Gonna try some of those ini files tweaks later.
Same, anyone else having this issue?
I forgot to say thanks for the settings! My eyes feel so much better now, lol.
I should mention that I'm getting bad screen tearing with vsync off. I tried enabling it through Nvidia Control Panel but still getting tearing. Should've splurged on that gsync monitor.
It's the AA, I think. Here are screens with AA set to high and low:
Exactly why I never do preloads (though I almost never preorder anyways).
But it's helpful for those with subpar Internet.

Got the game in my mailbox at home, but I won't get home until around 7pm.
Probably gonna be trying out Dante/Chun tonight. Not sure the synergy there, but they are the two characters I'm most interested in playing.

Still no luck. I'm bored of story mode, I want some real action!
Also, is Wakanda really pronounced like 'valconda'?
They may have meant 1-2 hours of cutscenes.

It tooks my friend to finish the game like 2 hours 45 minutes to 3 hours.
Yeah that's some heavy AA. I think I have it set to medium on SFV or something.

Managed to rent a copy from redbox so my friend and i will give it a look. Stuck with pads though since there isn't any damn legacy support.
Probably going to try out Marvel/Nemesis with Soul.
Dont really have much in the way of character options since the Darkstalkers voicework is far too grating and Gamorra really isnt my style.

It's Valkanda, a fusion of Monster Hunter's Val Habar and Wakanda.

I don't know in what world this game is more lenient. Short super jumps alone are pretty nasty.
Cap's leap kick is cool shit. This game is wide open. Gonna be here a whiiiiile. Everything cancels

I've not been a fan of this game from what I've seen/the single player demo, but I was just watching the Arthur tutorial video, and he looks really goddamn fun on this.
I was gonna get it on sale eventually, but I'm tempted to jump in a lot sooner.

The fighting in marvel is worlds better than xenoverse or xenoverse 2 I'll tell you that much.
the PVP in xenoverse is kind of terrible.

Ah! That makes sense. Thanks.
Finally got a ranked match. Got absolutely destroyed 😓
Straight up, I know it's not "good", but I liked the story. The small moments / inside jokes between some characters was great. I feel pretty good in saying it's better than SF V's.
3-4 hours is about right, at least for me, but that includes all cutscenes...which is fine. Why else would you be playing the story?
Game definitely seems harder than 3 to me, but again, part of that is being screwed by muscle memory.
It's probably a very good idea to have one air dasher because the skills are transferable among the dashers. I think you will like Captain Marvel and then choose any second character you like. Right now everyone is learning the game by themselves and exploring their duo so you have to hit the lab yourself and find your own synergy. The game is open enough to allow that.

I ain't done with the story but it's fine. It's a bunch of fanservice. Yeah they could have fleshed it out more but fuck that - i just like the quirky moments. Only when it gets real serious does it fall flat but I enjoy what they did with the fights.
Aren't you a grappler guy by trade? Have you tried Haggar and Nemesis? (the latter isn't really a grappler but it's a big boy) Depends on what you like in a character tbh.
As for team comp and synergy, I don't think you have to worry too much about it. Like maybe someone with a projectile/speedy who can get in and someone who can hit hard. But stones can offset some weaknesses so nbd right now.

What type of play style to you tend to gravitate towards in a fighting game? Pick a character that look like a lot of fun to use and then pick character that can make up for your first character's weak points. For example, if you pick a big body like Hulk, then pick either a more keepaway character like Hawkeye or pick a fast rushdown character like Wolv-Captain Marvel.
I do like the sound of the bolded. I was listening to commentators in exhibitions, though, and they were talking about how the game seems more rushdown/offensive based than MvC3, so I don't know how a Chris + Hawkeye + Time Stone (something I was considering) team would balance out in the future.
But yeah, while everyone's figuring out their own styles right now, I guess the right answer for now is whatever feels the best to you.
I am not. I hate command grabs because of the associated risk. If you're thinking of my time in SFV, I picked up R. Mika for literally these two reasons, and them alone:
1. She says "I'll totally make this look cool!" and "I'll kick your ass!" as signature quotes.
2. Her V-Trigger was the most alike a puppet character.
Point 2 really draws me to the Soul Stone, actually.
Maybe at a lower level, synergy won't matter too much. But looking at the exhibitions, it's obvious that players need to find ways for the characters in their team to properly complement each other for things to work out. At first, I was thinking that a rushdown character and a zoning character would make for a balanced team. Guess I'll think about that more.

2-1 in my first online match. Netcode seems fantastic, I searched with same region / connection +1 (yolo) and got a match pretty fast (begginer's league)
I can do some basic combos with Hulk (which carried me) but my Ghost Rider was basically
