Seeing as we're taking guesses as to what season 1 dlc will be I'm going to say sigma, panther and hunter are definitely a lock while the remaining 3 are still anyone's guess. Winter solider and venom who would be a returning character are both pretty lame roster choices when it comes to picking from Marvels roster of characters. The third capcom character could be gill but that's also pretty unlikely in my opinion. his move set outside of chariot tackle knee press and head butt can be found in gems and other characters already in the game. Meteors well there's dormammu function for that. Resurrection well there's soul stone for that. Unless he is completely reworked I just don't see him as being interesting enough function wise to make the cut. Only thing he has that's not represented is the seraphim wing super. Also he's naked.

I'm going to jump in the deep end of the pool and say the upcoming marvel dlc reps will be Hela/Death/Black widow for a female rep. And either green goblin or Loki for a new franchise villain rep. On the capcom side of things I'd expect someone hype as fuck to shore up a weak roster. Asura, Nero or someone super obscure from darkstalkers could work. Q bee, rikuo or huntzil.

I know what was in the leak but until shits released everything's subject to change.

About 1:28:11 or so. I know if you go to 1:28:00 you'll be golden. And good lord, that team insane. Spider-Man is ridiculously fast.
Yep. I had fun with Chun in the story mode demo, so maybe I'll try this team out. Just gotta learn those combo notations. I wonder if Chun's are already out there because of her being in the story demo.

Maybe this will get people to come up with tech for him now, because up until today I have barely seen any Spider man footage.

I don't wanna get this game but Spiderman might push me over the edge. He was one of my mains in 3 and I thought he would be a downgrade here, but it seems he got damage without relying on kara stings and web throw loops now

My son played the demo last night and loved it, and his 10th bday just happens to be on Tuesday so I put the order for the PS4 version in this morning at Amazon. Also ordered a 2nd controller so we can play this together so I hope he likes the full game just as much.

Bruh. Why not. If you have a capable PC the game is cheap as hell on CDKeys and by all accounts with the full version it's fun as hell. Get it.

Saw someone say that Chun Li's model in Story mode is still using the old face but the new one in every other mode? Can anyone confirm?

Isn't there a 10gb day one patch? Maybe that fixes that.,

That'd be odd. I wouldn't think it would work like that.

Pressure in this game is going to be incredible.

Yeah I think its odd too and I didn't even know about a day one patch that big. Must have a lot of fixes in it.
Probably has the same issue with SFV in that UE4's pak format requires tons of files to be replaced for even a single code update.

From what I have heard so far the music isn't too bad. Especially the capcom side. Currently Dante and Chris seem to have the weakest themes. Though to be fair Chris had a weak theme even in MVC3.
Marvel is where things are a bit more odd. Some stand out. But a lot seem to kinda blend together.

It's very clear this game is going to be harder on casuals than UMvC3 was.
I wanted to get the game early here in Peru, but it seems like they won't have it available till either Monday or Tuesday next week :/
 
After opponents are done adjusting to the speed I feel like Spider-Man is still gonna need some juice beyond being fast - his new forward heavy punch is juicy though, and he's gonna need hitboxes. The cross up heavy punch is also looking really strong. Air conversions being easier should help.

Damage is a little lower on day minus 4 granted, but he'll need some tricks via mind stone grabs or space stone placements to screw up their approaches. I like power stone for him as well to give him some killing power and another juicy hitbox.

They did him right by making him fast af and really annoying by the looks of it. Wondering how good ultimate web throw will be without its ridiculous hitbox from UMVC3, and whether Crawler Assault still has damage. Assault is looking like a good blockstun tag hyper at the very least.

Web ball looks like it got a bump in usefulness via system changes, being bigger and feeling like two hits in block stun by the looks of it? Needed since it can be reflected I guess.

Watching Justin, I feel like he'll be around where he was last time but it'll be easier to learn the basics of him. There's just less finicky things about him, but he will have to be about as creative to win consistently. That's a good thing, as I thought full potential Spider-Man was really good in UMVC3 - it was just very hard to play perfectly with him when you could just run Spencer for less work, better synergy and higher output.
 
At about 2:01:30 or so in the JWong twitch video, Chun is comboing Hulk from behind. I thought it was pretty dang cool how they had different animations for his body when getting hit in the back. I can't remember if this was in 3, but it's a neat little touch I think.

Dat SFV tech.

It's neat details like that make me wonder how they dropped the ball so severely in so many other areas, detailswise.

My main guess would probably be time constraints...but wtf do I know....diddly squat! That's just what I hope. I also am hoping that once it's released, that they will do little QoL updates here and there, but I realize I am being too optimistic with that sadly :(

Nice to hear at least someone here enjoyed the demo :p

It's not impossible tho.

how do I slip unnoticed out of a gloryhole booth?
Is it a legit back-turn state or is it just for show? Neither sf4 or mvc3 had back-turn, right?

I think they did in MvC3 (e.g. getting hit with Soul Fists from behind).
 
"Is it a legit back-turn state or is it just for show? Neither sf4 or mvc3 had back-turn, right?"

From what it seems, if you're comboing someone, their facing determines what side your character comes in on if you tag. So it seems as if you're comboing someone from behind and you tag mid combo, your new character will arrive to the opponent's front. Pretty sure I saw that happen on stream yesterday.

Any idea if there be 2 soundtracks like UMvC3 had? I always preferred the stage music in Marvel 3 over the character themes

Super armor got nerfed?!?

that... is unfortunate

edit: Hulk might be the exception. There is still hope

edit edit: so characters like Nemesis have damn near infinite hits of armor against projectiles/light attacks. I can work with that

Yup, and I am a man of hope. Throughout all of this, even now, I still think that deep down, ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) , Capcom truly knows better. They know there are things that need to be done, they know which characters they should release, and that everything up to this point was more of a "let's get things together to a certain state, and then we go crazy". Like, with the safe bet original roster, the generic menus, the lack of endings in arcade mode....I mean the game was announced what, 3, 4 months ago? June - Sept, if my memory serves me correctly. Marvel 3 had almost an entire year from first announcement to release (April 2010 to Feb 2011). So perhaps they are all furiously working. Day 1 patch might just be the first of many. Time will tell.

I do believe you are correct on that, I seem to recall people going back and forth...perhaps because they kept going back and forth, instead of being solely from behind for a minute it was harder to tell

I was just given permission to share this.

Arthur
Chris
Chun-Li
Dante
Firebrand
Jedah
Monster Hunter
Morrigan
Nemesis
Ryu
Spencer
Strider Hiryu
X

Ant-Man
Captain America
Captain Marvel
Doctor Strange
Gamora
Hawkeye
Hulk
Iron Man
Nova
Rocket/Groot (this is how the character was named to me; I'm not sure if it's just Rocket Raccoon with Groot assists or a redesigned character actually called Rocket/Groot)
Spider-Man
Thanos
Thor
Ultron

The Capcom side is missing a character, but it's probably someone like Frank West.

Ant-Man probably got shelved due to technical difficulties and Monster Hunter got pushed into DLC section Haggar, Ghost Rider, Doramammu, Frank West are more likely to be last four characters being added to the roster. That would fully explained about Monster Hunter's inclusion in story mode when Venom and Winter Solider weren't in the story mode.

I wonder if we are going to see Ant-Man in action or not?

The game was announced December 2016. Even then the game has been in the works since at least 2015. It's not like they started working on it when they announced it.

How can the demo have left me so cold but these videos be getting me so erect?

The demo was legit bad. Not just for hardcore fans, either. My sister who is casual as they come played it and left super disappointed.

Patch notes said "Various minor bug fixes." Or something along those lines when I checked them a couple days ago.
