I thought this was supposed to be all new characters but Venom is in it.
I mean, there isn't a MvC3 model and animation set to pull from for him, so for all intents and purposes, he is a new character.
I'm gonna say the same thing I said on Facebook but that's a cop out. When Birdie came back you could say all the same things about him that people will say for Venom but he was included in their "where have they been" returning characters and not a "new" one.
Venom definitely doesn't count as "all new" and anyone who says otherwise is shilling for Capcom 100%.
If there's one at some point though.Damn...
Now I'll have to wait for a complete edition before getting it...
If I start now, do I automatically start shilling? Cause I'll take some money!Venom definitely doesn't count as "all new" and anyone who says otherwise is shilling for Capcom 100%.
What if they switch up the version of Venom?
Flash Venom is a new character, right?
So they're just gonna stay short a capcom character? Wtf?
Free DLC?Hopefully either free DLC or 4 capcom 2 marvel next season even us out.
I'm here for the capcom characters. So more Marvel is meh for me.

They're not.I still think either Black Widow or Winter Soldier are Season 2 though.
we are happy to announce that Monster Hunter, Winter Soldier, Black Widow and the shape-shifting Venom will all be battling their way into Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite later this year.
Free DLC?
Why would Capcom release a free character? Not that I'm against the idea lol
But they stated that the 1st season would consist of 6 characters, including Black Widow and Winter Soldier.Maybe 8 characters in Season 1?

That's the least they could do after all the buzz that the game has had after the initial release.Build up goodwill with the fanbase after shitting the bed with the roster and presentation?
Who am I kidding, of course they won't do that.
While I do have a gut feeling that Black Widow was fast-tracked over another Capcom character (be it Gill or anyone else) to address the lack of female fighters in Year 1, I don't think it's because of a lack of DLC females on Capcom's end. If anything, I feel like it's due to Black Widow possibly being the farthest along of the Season 2 characters, so Capcom fast-tracked her completion so she could be ready for Season 1. This would also line up with getting Laura Bailey, who was likely too busy with Uncharted: Lost Legacy to record for Chun-Li for the base roster, to come in for Black Widow. Laura's really the only option for Black Widow, outside of an unknown, seeing as Natasha's EMH voice actress (Vanessa Marshall) is already voicing Gamora.
That's the least they could do after all the buzz that the game has had after the initial release.
But you're right, it's almost impossible that they would give some free characters.
Venom is "all-new" in the "Thanos is all-new" way. If he's all-new, he's all new.Venom definitely doesn't count as "all new" and anyone who says otherwise is shilling for Capcom 100%.
50% more women
6
Monster hunter is also a woman
6. Monster Hunter is female.
6. Monster Hunter is female
Monster Hunter is female.
Thanos isn't all new either and they never really advertised Thanos as all new in the game.Venom is "all-new" in the "Thanos is all-new" way. If he's all-new, he's all new.
The rumor was 4 free characters for SSFV, not 2.If that "2 free characters for SSFV" rumor turns out to be true I can maybe see it happening, but not holding my breath.
I would expect to see SSFV being announced at TGS, so maybe we'll know for sure this week.If that "2 free characters for SSFV" rumor turns out to be true I can maybe see it happening, but not holding my breath.
If Season 2 also has UMvC3 veterans, I could easily see the 2018 Character Pass having more than 6 characters in it (especially if they're gonna make up for lost time in terms of X-Men characters). Though I'd imagine that we'll have around 6 or so characters made from the ground-up.These six aren't going to diversify the color palette of the roster much. Venom, Black Panther, Black Widow, and Winter Soldier are all clothed in dark or black. Maybe they'll turn the blue up on Venom so he'll be like his true MvC self?
Hopefully, these folks have cool move sets.
I have to side with the crowd saying Venom being All-New is bunk. Great to have a non MCU character, but All-New.... naw.
I think the 4 Marvel and 2 Capcom characters is so weird. Maybe they are going to give some MvC3 Capcom rehashes for free? I would be shocked if they did a season pass with only two Marvel characters. I'd be down for it, but I think it wouldn't sell as well.
Given how Grandmaster Meio is used in the story, on top of the way he was shown in the trailers without any restraint (unlike Monster Hunter, who actually is a DLC character), I'm not sure if Meio was ever intended to be playable when they decided the Season 1 DLC characters. That's not to say that he won't ever be playable, but I don't think Capcom was thinking of that when they were working on the base game & the 2017 DLC characters.They probably had to push Grandmaster Meio to S2 so that people aren't super salty about it, so they swapped in Black Widow.
Season 2 needs those MvC3 veterans though, especially if those are X-men or FF characters, its the capcom side that needs mostly new characters with at least 1 veteranIf Season 2 also has UMvC3 veterans, I could easily see the 2018 Character Pass having more than 6 characters in it (especially if they're gonna make up for lost time in terms of X-Men characters).

To be fair, we still have popular Capcom characters like Phoenix Wright, Wesker, & Vergil waiting in the wings.Season 2 needs those MvC3 veterans though, especially if those are X-men or FF characters, its the capcom side that needs mostly new characters with at least 1 veteran
Sadly, it's not a new problem for MvC games. MvC2 had the most black characters in a MvC game with a resounding 2 (Storm & War Machine). I'd like that to change with MvCI, but I'm not getting my hopes up.Still only one black character like the last game
All these years I thought the Monster Hunter was just some male create a character avatar.
Arguably, the female Kirin armor is as iconic to the series as the male Hunter armor.
It wouldn't. The fans want X-Men, etcIt's a shame Sigma, Monster Hunter, Black Panther/Venom and Black Widow weren't part of the base game. It would have done a lot to mitigate people's issues about the roster. Even just two of them would have helped.

Yep, this is true, maybe not for all the fans but a great number.It wouldn't. The fans want X-Men, etc

It's so bad when they say that the characters choices were based on who would be a better fit in the story, yeah right...
