i like how nobody's really made note that they're actually going to have a story mode this time around

that seems like kind of a huge deal for this series, especially

SFV's story was pretty disappointing, but maybe the Marvel magic will help elevate this one.

It wouldn't make sense to not have captain America in this game.

Although I always saw him as the leader/figure head.

Iron man always felt kind a wack (to me) to have as a promotional character (although I realize his popularity)

I really don't like how much cheaper the intro movie looks compared to the MvC3 ones. Reminds me of the awful cheap looking SFV intro.

Netcode better be top notch Capcom. It's 2016, no more excuses, no more colored bars instead of numerical ping.
 
Capcom: We don't think the market is ready for another Mega Man game

Also Capcom: Hey so our massive crossover fighting game starts with Mega Man X and probably has the villain in it too

I dunno about this whole 2v2 thing. MvC, MSH, & TVC were never very popular competitive games & for good reason. This feels like TVC2 in the making. 2v2 just isn't that hype.

The game has Marvel in its name. Unless the game is COMPLETE ASS, it will be fine popularity-wise :p

They promised that for MvC3 too. Let's see if they deliver this time :p

Okay theory time.

The Capcom Unity post says there's a cinematic story mode with an "all new villian".

I assume that's the shadow guy at the end of the trailer.... who to me looks like Ultron

merged with the boss of Ghosts n Goblins... Astaroth

Yup, that's my first thought. I even posted it in chatroom.

I think it's going to be Ultron merging with other character
maybe Ultron + Astaroth from Goblin and Ghoul

Which is kind of odd because all those intros were done by Polygon Pictures... including Street Fighter V.

This intro clearly isn't their style though.... it actually looks closer to Smash Bros 4 cinematics in my opinion.
 
So if Ultron/Sigma is the boss, does that mean Thanos as a regular playable character?
Nothing says Ultron and Sigma (if that's him too) aren't playable themselves. We're just speculating that the final boss may be some sort of Onslaught-esque amalgamation of the two, which actually makes a lot of sense since they're both motivated by the same hatred for humans.

Hoping that the no-X-Men thing doesn't pan out or at least changes over time. The name Infinite suggests that this will be the one game this generation and it'll be supported by seasons like Killer Instinct and SFV.

I can't have a Marvel without my main Sentinel, no way.

But again, just the fact that this real, I'm just happy it exists honestly.

Spider-Man & Black Panther may just have to be the new team for now then!

It isn't confirmed but it's the most probable thing.
Even Wolverine wasn't on the trailer as Ryu's "rival"

Wolverine hasn't been a frontman for Marvel for a while now - Iron Man/RDJ on the other hand.

It's going to have poor writing and way too much budget spent on it. No point in getting hyped over it, just another bullet point so casuals would buy it.

Do you mean to say that the SFV cinematic story mode had a budget? Don't know about that. Maybe it will have more since Disney would want that?
We'll probably see only these 4 characters at Capcom Cup. Get hype about hyper fighting.

Marvel would definitely want it to be more than that though. After all the story mode in Injustice got very high praises.

WAIT, where did they say Sigma was gonna be in!??!

They didn't outright say it but looks like new villain could be sigma/ultron and to make it fair when it comes to characters, I could see them being separate. Makes the most sense imo.

I could be totally wrong and sigma won't be in this game but I never thought I'd get X...

I WILL ALWAYS BELIEVE!!!!

I wish for these 2 things:

-Rerelease UMVC3 for PS4 with the DLC characters & patches for infinites & Morrigan fixing.

-Announce MVC4

C'mon Capcom, it's Christmas.

This was what I asked for last thread. It's the best Christmas ever.
 
The hype got me through the trailer but man those models like rough as fuck for cg trailer especially Ryu. Not sure how I feel about gems coming back hopefully you can turn them off.
 
Is it me or something about the artstyle seems odd? Like, I don't know if it's the lighting or the animations, but it looks like 32/128 bit era computer graphics.

The SFV cinematics looked cheaper than the SF4 cinematics, as well. Maybe they just had a smaller budget. Having a ton of completely amazing CG trailers didn't help SFxT sell, after all.
