Marvel Vs. Capcom: Infinite Characters and Stages Roster Discussion Thread

I'd like to see War Machine with a revamped move set. No Unibeam/repulsors, more ballistics and missiles.
That reminds me, I noticed Iron Man aped warmachine's old quote.

"Here's my Sunday best!"

Well, Tony says "Here's my best." instead.

And what was that standing missle move he fired in the extended trailer? Almost looked like a reference to MCU WarMachine's Ex-Wife. Or it could be in reference to that scene in the first Iron Man movie.
 
Speaking of which I'd love to get Juggernaut in a modern Vs. game, I always picked him in older games

latest
I'm unstoppable!!

Midnight Bliss is a stupid move anyways, now you gotta animate like 40 different sexy versions of characters

There are ways around that, like building the transformations from a generic model, rather than from scratch. In Capcom Fighting JAM, they made the actual blood sucking happen off-screen, covering it with Demitri's cape, which made it so they didn't need to animate the victim being grabbed and drained. In a 3d game, the grabbing animation wouldn't be an issue though.

Regarding the controversial aspect of transforming the Marvel characters, they could just make the animation more ambiguous - like rather than a flower turning the opponent in a girl, we could get Demitri's cape covering the opponent, with the girl being there afterwards - leading to the blood/energy absorption animation, and another cape motion to close things and bring back the actual character.

What about a resident evil rep that works like Ice Climbers given the series heavy focus on co-op?

Something like Sherry/Jake or Chris/Jill.
 
To substitute the Xmen characters, I would assume that:

Wolverine => Black Panther
Magneto => Black Bolt
Storm => Scarlet Witch
Sentinel => Devil Dinosaur (cause I can!)
Rogue => Cloak (of Cloak and Dagger fame)
Deadpool => Nighthawk (of Squadron Supreme) or Starlord (more obvious pick)
Super Skrull => Ms Marvel
Dr. Doom => Thanos or Ultron

Still, so many good possibilities for Marvel characters to rise up.

That would be incredibly interesting and a great reference to the dual protagonist nature of the series. But I imagine that's a hard sell given the game is already tag focused.

Intel you have so many threads for constant talks lol.

But hey they are top quality at least

What could I say? I love dem speculation threads! It was helluva to speculate about everything that have potential to become stages or playable characters. And THANKS!


Man, I thought when the Super Smash Bros cycle ended I would never have to see the "representative" argument again.

Well, it actually exists in SFV discussion if I remember it correctly.

A new MVC...and a new Smash, back to back, my goodness, how will gaf contain such hype?

Only way GAF could contain it by locking everything down for a year.

Heath's going to have his work cut out for him. Lol

Whew, I'm scared now. 1 more month until we will find out if we are going to get newcomers or missing veterans for Smash Switch.

Which kind of stages you guys want to see?

For me the Highway from Rockman X1 is a lock

The stage we saw is Abel City (MMX) x Asgard (Thor)

I don't think i ever heard that rumor

I remember Niitsuma or Seth mentioned that long time ago. Gill was considered to be in MVC3 because he have a resurrection power.

I can't tell if you're referring to some no name character that will never appear in this game because he's an E tier FOX property or if you misspelled a super cool potential Ace Attorney character that will also probably never appear in this game.

Holy shit. The Steel Samurai could actually be a super cool choice, instead of Phoenix Wright.

I really hope Capcom pull out some obscure stuff for the roster. At least one Sengoku Basara rep, Monster Hunter and Asura's Wrath would be nice. I also really want Ken (maybe Violent Ken?) to be thrown in the mix as well.

C'mon Capcom I need some MvC: Infinite artwork already.
Same here. As I mentioned in the other thread, tons of news sites (not even just video game sites) got a lot of mileage out of the art for MvC3/UMvC3. We need those renders.

Thanos was already in MSH and MvC2 with his own moveset, so he probably won't be substituting for anyone. But who knows

It's really weird... Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite is a huge reveal, but there's not a single piece of artwork, character renders, or even official screen shots.

I hope the "artworks" for this game are not just 3d renders of the characters just to cut even more the budget.

Given the action figure-like aesthetic, I'm expecting the renders to be high quality versions of the character models touched up in a photo editing program, like with Smash Bros.

Helps lead credence that perhaps this did start as a non Marvel VS games.

Pretty sure they did that for MvC3 too, though it was supplemented by hand drawn Shinkiro art.

MvC3 renders looked nice though.
They were renders, right?

I can't wait for the calvacade of fighting game promotional artists to join in on the 2D front. Bring me some Shinkiro!
 
I'm fine with the MCU focus, gives an excellent opportunity for some new characters to make an appearance.

Iron Man
Captain Marvel
Captain America
Winter Soldier
Black Panther
Thor
Valkyrie
Hulk
Black Widow
Hawkeye
Ant-Man
Wasp
Doctor Strange
Scarlet Witch
Groot
Daredevil
Jessica Jones
Luke Cage
Iron Fist
Quake
Spider-Man

Dream Marvel side

Same here. I'm still waiting for the materials.

Yeah, it was bizarre that they haven't really release anything yet, and they didn't even have official website up for worldwide, beside their Japanese website.
 
Hey guys what do you think are the chances of Amaterasu being back? My friend mained her and is worried she will not make it in which would suck because it would mean he is not getting the game

I just want Talbain. I've been waiting a decade and a half since MvC2. Not holding my breath though, It was Niitsuma that said he was going to put him in as the next Darkstalker character but he isn't working at the game.

And SMH at people wanting Demit-ryu.

If we could get some Onimusha representatives, would be siiiick. Also, Asura would be too hype and seems like a fun choice, if unlikely. Out of SF, I feel like Rashid would be more fun in a Marvel game, and Viper deserves another chance, considering how amazing and fun she was in MvC3.

Marvel side, please put MODOK back in, he's was so perfect for the game. I'd also hope to see some inhumans make up for the lack of Xmen. Or we could have Scarlet Witch replace Magneto and Quick Silver would be so much fun.

I tried to come up with a roster for Marvel but I failed hard. That side of the roster is going to be produce the salt.

Capcom's side is relatively straight forward mostly because they got it so right with Marvel 3 (minus no MMX and Gene which is easily rectified).


For Stages I only want to see moonlight raining Temen-Ni-Gru from DMC3.

Obviously under moon light so you can see what you are doing in it.

No, she's a separate person named Gwen Poole who breaks the fourth wall like Deadpool.

she doesn't actually break the fourth wall which is a cool twist about her char
like, she comes from p much our regular ass world where shes a big nerd and is sucked into the marvel comic book world, recognizing that it's the marvel comic book world. she doesn't actually know that she is the star of her own comic nor does she speak to the reader or anything- it's more like, she acts as if she was the star of a comic book as to stay alive in the insane world and only has it confirmed that her plan is working via her not being dead
however this also ties into murdering a bunch of people and the usual 'oops i thought i was in a wacky fictional world except all these people are actual people and not props now i have to deal with the consequences of that' too
it's surprisingly good considering the really stupid origin and base concept it has.


anyhow i hope date masamune is in the game with dante so i can just have a team that's two dantes. especially if his theme is this:

or his actual game one:
