I can't stop thinking about how much Iron man has changed. Those rekkas, the launcher, smart bombs...he's really really good now. I keep thinking that a good frustrating team would probably be Ironman/X +Reality stone. Ironman can do smartbombs with the reality stone to cause havoc, plus Megaman can use the boomerang or sonic slicer plus the stone to cause some absolutely disgusting space control and even pressure since he can cancel his buster into followups. Jump reality stone into buster and cancel followup (either the powerdunk or slide) would be nice pressure. Plus the Infinity storm perk with reality stone with those two would be pretty fun to abuse as well. No escape.

Gotta hand it to Capcom. Roster is recycled faces but the playstyles have vast changes. Enough that some completely unutilized dudes like Spidey, Ironman, and Thor suddenly become "new cast" equivalents since who the hell ever bothered to begin with lol.

Still goin in hard on X. No clue if I'll end up with Spidey turning into anything in the lab, or Ironman or Thanos or Ultron. Hopefully something in that lineup becomes my partner for X. I just see so much disgusting tag setups with that boomerang and sonic slicer...especially in the corner since Sonic Slicer ricochets off walls. I've seen some nasty stuff before with ricochets and I got some ideas on how to wall folks in with that tool.
 
Have there been any leaks about the netcode yet? I know some people have only just now started picking it up from Mom and Pop stores so I wouldn't be surprised if no one has had a chance to run any online matches yet.

You'll get the same Sparda costume he has every game and like it!

As in "Heathcliff"
aye but my question stands. Does it unlock for both of them?
if so, thats 30 times with all chars for all colors. Thats alot of arcade mode. If its just for the first character in the team, then you would have to do arcade mode 60 times, and that is just ungodly ;_;

No idea. We aren't even sure yet. I know someone had to beat arcade mode twice to get 4th color for the character (but I forget to ask if all characters at once or not)

either it would be two times or sixty times.

There's a new Jurassic World movie coming out.

At least, we are getting Jurassic World Evolution out of this. I thought it would be smart move for Capcom to do Dino Crisis but I guess they don't want to take a risk.
 
From that link


All the capcom characters all have the same type of electronic/dubstep music. Marvel's are all orchestral, only Ghost Rider has a rock song

I don't get it, there's actually a ton of cool shit in the game but you never would have known about it if you hadn't either played it yet or seen early people playing. Who is the community specialist, ComboFiend? I know this is opening me up for "Injustice sucks" comments but the way NRS handles their pre release hype is what I would want from Capcom these days. Announce some characters, do a character breakdown on stream. Have like a bi weekly stream showing this and maybe some of the other modes off. It's like they can't be fucked to go out of their way and promote their product. It's frustrating.

Combofiend isnt a community guy, he's a producer

Well Capcom is still a Japanese company stuck in the past.

Capcom needs to tighten up their DMC lore before DMC5.

Also I am like half certain that Captain Marvel's Photon Absorber is only supposed to work like Urien's V-Skill where you get one super armor hit and that's it. From the way it is right now, she continuously has armor on everything until the duration of the move which is mind mindbogglingly stupid.

It's like she's has the advantages of a big body character in having armor but also is a heavy rushdown character with beefy damage and a utility hyper for even more damage and beefy specials.

Osborn helping spidey just doesn't seem right. Plus you don't even see him lol

help him? how could you possibly misread that super? hes trying to kill spider-man, spidey dodges and chucks them at his opponent.
