I highly doubt people played Magneto for the character back then. If the roles were reversed and all the Capcom characters were better and were picked OVER the marvel characters and the game was dubbed, "Capcom" over "Mahvel" we honestly wouldn't be making a huge fuss over X-men characters.
Can we just ship Max over to Capcom Not so they can hire him, but just so he can rant for a while until security kicks him out and hopefully within that time some of the staff go "hey Power Stone characters, that's a neat idea."
The very notion of 'characters being nothing more than functions' completely misses the point about what the initial draw to a fighting game is. You look for characters to connect to, you find something visually to grab you and draw you in. That's the initial pull. Peter Rosas' statement is so ass backwards, those two paragraphs were incredibly infuriating to read. I think that's actually put the final nail in the coffin for any hype i had left for this game.
At some level, he isn't completely wrong, but say the skeleton is what sells Magneto, is dangerous. Presentation matters. Particularly if you are competing with your past self.
yes some characters have functions that make them favored more so than certain ones. but to say that these characters are "just functions" and to forget about them is a dumbass statement. i can't even believe what I'm reading from that interview. do these guys know they're working on a marvel vs capcom title?
Exactly. If the characters are just "functions" as he says then what's the point of even giving each individual character a skin texture and instead just make them look like the wireframe fighters from melee? They're just FUNCTIONS after all, who CARES what they look like, where they're from or they play a role in the story? Might as well just make Ryus model name "karate guy" and give him a flat, polygonal, featureless body for all the difference it makes if he's just considered a "function".
sorry but your modern marvel fan is an absolute shithead who has poor taste in everything and if you cant remember the x-men then you're probably brain dead
Numb Cube “Modern” fans worship the MCU and don’t care to acknowledge much else. “Classic” fans appreciate ALL Marvel content including stuff outside of and prior to the MCU, which is now constantly being crammed down our throats.
greenskiis Its just because Marvel/Disney don't own the rights to make the movies. They are using this game as just cheap ass ad for their MCU movies. Capcom must be desperate for money or is too stupid
greenskiis to be fair spiderman also did the heavy lifting back then plus he was the poster child for marvel before iron man 1 came out sadly I get a bad feeling spidey will be dlc sadly to promote homecoming
"Maybe they don't even remember the X-Men!" Yeah, wish we had a very successful drama movie about Wolverine or a very popular new movie franchise about Deadpool that became one of the most successful R movies... >_>
"People don't remember the X-Men" Logan, Deadpool, The 90's X Men Series, & THE MARVEL VS CAPCOM FRANCHISE would like to have a word with you. People don't only care about the characters Disney decides they should.
Hollow ' what they shouldve said was X-Men aren't the first thing when people think of Marvel. Be real that's what people think of. The Avengers then Spiderman then Guardians then X-Men. Its been like that for a while now. And lets be real there were people like myself who complained about there being too many X-Men. All you need is Magneto, Storm, Wolverine and maybe Deadpool. That's it.
aquapyro1 also I don't think anyone besides someone really new to either the MCU or Marvel in general thinks of the freaking Guardians when they hear marvel. They just became relevant like 5 minutes ago.
aquapyro1 I do agree though we don't need every freaking X Men.. Storm, Deadpool, Wolverine, Magneto, & THA GAWD DOOM makes Marvel Vs Capcom games stick with you though.
X Men were hella prevalent back in the day. I sucked at MvC2 but I loved watching people play for the flash. and I also think that the movie side of things is what's dictating the Mvci roster at this point. they know goddamn well people were looking for certain characters. they're just PRing their asses off at this point.
1. Peter believes characters are just functions and there could be no other reason why we like certain characters. 2. X-men are apparently forgotten characters but Logan recently came out this year and was a hit and Deadpool 2 is coming out and will most likely include more X-men cameos. 3. Personally I'd rather play with any X-men character or a Gaurdians of the Galaxy character any day. (Based on what I see out of the community others who i talk too agree with me) 4. Most of the roster are reused anyways. 5. X-men Children of the Atom birthed the Marvel vs Capcom series.
7. This is most likely DISNEY/MARVEL in response to not having the MOVIE RIGHTS. Hence why X-men and Fantastic 4 are specifically not their but highly favored. 8. Yes it's just the movie rights but DISNEY/MARVEL still would'nt want the characters in the game because it promotes the companies who owns the movies rights to X-Men. (Im pretty its Fox) 9. Going off of number 8. I'm pretty sure since the Marvel Cinematic Universe has an obvious good amount of influence on the Marvel Roster. This game is most likely happening because it's giving DISNEY/MARVEL a easy/cheap way of promoting their (in my opinion) overrated movies for the MCU fan boys. I addressed this in a different comment
Sorry, the point is very much clear no need for so many points, its Disney Pushing SJW. As they did on all of its movies this year and having being doing for a while with egverything they touch.
Marcelo Tezza How would adding the X-Men to MvC would trigger SJWs??? I mean yeah SJWs hate just about anything but I don't even think they would attack this.
"They're just functions." And that statement right there is what will help ruin the game and it's initial sales. If that were the case, you could have a gray character with no features, call him Anonymous Andy, and just cause you change the moveset and mobility he's automatically a new and fresh character. People don't play characters just cause of their moves. it's a factor but how they look also adds to the charm. Edgelord over the top character Reaper in Overwatch wouldn't be nearly as cool or fun if he was just some dude. Chipp Zannuff, president and ninja, would not be as fun if all he was was just "A function" that could teleport. MAGNETO DID NOT GET POPULAR CAUSE HE'S A FUCKING FUNCTION! Like, I want this game to do well but it's like Capcom/Marvel/Disney/whoever the fuck is responsible is trying their hardest to hurt this games sales. Cause believe it or not, this is not just some start up franchise. This is not a game that has only functions. This game is a legacy game, both in concept and the characters within each universe. And you treat them like they're nothing, like they're just tools. Like they have no real value. That's sad....that's really disappointing and sad. .....On that note I guess we don't need Krillin, Android 18, or Beerus in DBFZ since they're just functions. Just put Saibamen with their moveset in and we're good HAHA!
yeah, if you look at smash bros, it would be an game called dragon something the fighting game, with random dudes, it would not have been as popular if it wasnt an fighting game with the most iconic characters (and an few less iconic characters) from nintendo, the game even made mother (earthbound) and fire emblem popular just because ness and marth/roy were in it! not even to mention that when an smash bros is being in development, every nintendo direct or e3 presentation gets hyped just to see which new characters that they will put in the game, like, just watch that reaction video of max reacting to cloud being in smash, that is the "motive" of why smash bros sells. that is what mvci is lacking at moment... from the marvel side, in my opinion.
Whoever gave the functions comment has got to be the most emotionless husk of a developer/producer I've ever heard about in the industry. I've heard EA reps give more pretend passion then I can see in this interview.
Yo, yo, man, how you gonna ignore f (x) = 2x^2 + 11x? F(x) = 5x - 13 was a great add to the roster, but F (x) = 2x^2 + 11x was the core of that game! Don't even try to tell me you didn't pick him even once!
"Your modern marvel fan, maybe they don't even remember some of the X-Men characters" Meanwhile, on the Capcom side, we have such long time fan favourites like... Spencer and Arthur and.... Firebrand! (if the leak is true). You know, all those classic household name characters that everyone knows and loves!
on the capcom side the people at capcom forgot about X and Megaman.........THE only reason he got into Smash Bros was because a younger kid that worked at capcom remembered him....FROM MARVEL VS CAPCOM 2
Daniel Gonzalez dude I took note of that as well. No music, no gameplay. He literally just sat down and spoke his hear ton the subject. You know it's a concerning issue when Max does something like this.
no MVC2 Airship/Swamp/Factory/Theme Park stage music. not even the Training stage theme lol. yeah...shits real as all fuck right now...all Max is missing is a bottle of whiskey...
1. If the characters are just functions, who will succeed the FOOT DIVE? 2. "Captain Marvel may seem like a strange pick, but she's fantastic." She IS a strange pick, considering she's poorly written in the comics (and has been relaunched at least 5 times now due to poor sales) and is a very disliked character. 3. I can certainly name a lot more X-Men villains than other Marvel franchises, excluding Spiderman. I don't want Capcom to massively fail, but I want this game to do poorly because they seriously need to be humbled.
Funny where we've arrived today after motherfreaking *_X-Men: Children of the Atom_* gave birth to the entire Marvel vs Capcom franchise in the first place.
The answer is this is a game not for fans! This is CAPCOM at their most lousy, where they are hoping just to cash in on Marvel movie popularity and are making a minimalist game so they can minimize cost and maximize profit. Its not about Legacy. Its about money. The people making the game have no concept of Legacy or history
You have to give as much of the blame to Marvel as well, their the reason alot of characters are not appearing in the game. On that front Capcom has no control
"Your modern Marvel fan, maybe they don't even remember some of the X-Men characters, but they know some of the Guardians characters or Black Panther. You know what I mean?" - Capcom's Mike Evans Yeah I totally forgot who is Logan & the x-men characters smfh
Not fighting game player and I won't be getting this game, but I allways liked the Avengers more (long before the Marvel Cinematic Universe), so fuck the X-Men.
TeamTowers1 that's fine, but this is supposed to be a marvel vs capcom fighting game player Wet Dream characters from every series not marvel cinematic vs Capcom
Combofiend: Characters are just functions, you should try another characters Combofiend to Capcom: Capcom can you PLEASE include spencer? he is my favorite character
"characters are just functions" "no one remembers the Xmen" Who do they think they're selling this game to?! I know the gameplay might be good, but those statements are mind boggling! Edit: I just found out about the removal of mvc origins and 2, guess that should have been a warning for all of us.
hence why its called Infinite instead of 4. which is fine considering modders can update graphical skins, tweak the gameplay in tourney acceptable ways, and even buff the netcode just in case its SF4/SFV quality out of the box. yall can play this for 10+ years and have plenty to explore.
The slap in the face for me is when they said no one knew the X-men and people will immediately know who Black Panther is. With the simplified controls, I wouldn't be surprised if their audience are 10 years that just know the MCU.
The reason I particularly want this game to flop is for Capcom to finally get through their heads that they cannot keep treating games as a catalyst for sponsors and e-sport income. I want this to fail so Capcom understands that, for all the love we had towards them in the past, they are not the same company anymore, they do not deserve to make any games like this and expect that everyone that is not sponsored to accept any crap that comes out of their mouths: - 2011: No, we didn't release UMvC3 as a stand-alone title because we wanted more money (Yes, you did) - 2012: No, the cross-play on SFxTK only works on PS3 because the architectures of PSN and XBL are different (No, it's because you had a deal with Sony since before release) - 2015: SFV will have a 3-frame input window so players can more easily pull off combos (No, It's because you can't figure out how to properly code on UE4 so your game inherently has delay that you can't fix and you came out with a bullshit excuse to cover the fact that no-one could pull any combos on that environment without an input buffer) - 2016: No, Marvel vs Capcom Infinte has no ties with the Marvel cinematic universe so we have the freedom to use every character (False. No X-Men, Fantastic Four or Spiderman characters confirmed yet for the game and initial roster looking like Disney shilling) - 2017: USF2 is the DEFINITIVE way to play SF2 (No. You POORLY re-used assets from SF4 and called it an extra feature, POORLY re-used sprites from HD Remix and called it new characters, POORLY implemented an online component and more, and you sold it for WAAAAY more than HD Remix) I'm sorry. WHY should I trust Capcom AGAIN?
"No, we didn't release UMvC3 as a stand-alone title because we wanted more money (Yes, you did)" No, they didn't. They clearly released UMvC3 as a standalone because it WAS going to be DLC, but then that tsunami struck and caused major delays. The proceeds went to those affected. Get your facts right next time. This is why I hate the Capcom fanbase....they don't do research and assume the worst.
Pretty much the exact reason why this game needs to be boycott. They hardly cared to make it 5 years ago, and now that UMvC3 is almost near the end of its slow death they're deciding to cash in. Fuck Cashcom.
DiegoBQZ - Neodanger the SFV thing is not incompetence, it is a deliberate thing. The reason they did that is because they did want it to be easier and for online to feel the same as offline. Which is a horrible decision and one of the many reasons people hate SFV, me included.
I'm kinda feeling that 2017 has been a lot about things going south, but I hope it will be for the better and that the shittyness of our current times will help a lot of people wake up to the fact that it's time we put more demands on, well, everyone to value quality and ideals over quantity and greed.
MopedOfJustice He's not a sellout at all, he said he loves the series with a passion and is willing to look past the negatives and embrace the positives, (That being the gameplay.) but he is still massively disappointed. You can clearly tell by his expression through out the video that he is not happy.
MopedOfJustice We grew up with these games some of us are disappointed but want to give it a try regardless. But man I'm terribly upset at this game but I love these games
MopedOfJustice he has played the game and said the game is fun to play we don't get the full vibe with the story demo but the vs aspect is fun according to a lot of people it's the look they kind of forgot about it the look is important to a lot of people which I agree it is and that's what's giving it a vibe no ones talking about the game they are talking about the look and yes the roster but we don't fully know what's happening we can't judge it until we have it but I will agree the roster needs to be better
Making a Marvel vs Capcom game without Wolverine is NOT MvC. I love these games, I played them in the arcades for years and years but... I simply no longer wish to buy MvCI
''bu-bu-but kids don't know who wolverine is (really nigga? the mofo just had one of the most popular movies on the genre and their comics are always solid and in the case of old man logan, fucking awesome) or deadpool (another fucking hit character in comics and movies) but they know who rocket raccoon (even when the latest movie and comics are fucking shit)''
Yeah. If they didn’t rushed it and took their time with characters, graphic arts, etc etc, then it would of sell well. But no, they’ve ruined everything.
CAPCOM: "We don't really have any restrictions from marvel side" Me: "Cool, so we might have X-men characters after all? If you guys need to focus on the MCU it's fine. *shit roster gets leaked* Me: "Hey wtf guys?? Where the hell is Loki? Black Widow? Hello? Are we even seeing X-men characters??" CAPCOM: "Look, kid, characters are just functions"
I think he was talking more to the pro community, and I bet the reason Magneto was so popular in MvC3 tournaments had jack shit to do with his character.
Dear Marvel and Capcom. You don't get to tell potential customers what they want. That isn't how this works. Your game will bomb if you stick to this path.
Matt Smith - People know they cant be on it due to stupid licensing reasons between Marvel and Fox etc. However what your missing about what people are pissed off about is the developers trying to tell people we dont NEED xmen or that we should forget them or even worst that we only liked them in the first place simply because of how they played! I hated the way wolverine played but i always had him in my team because i fuckin love WOLVERINE
Fighting game's roster is, in my opinion, the most important aspect. Fighting games are perfect way to showcase cool and kickass characters. If we had a fighting game with very good engine and mechanics, but all the characters in it would be color swaps with different movesets....Who would wanna play that?! The fact the devs are treating these characters as ''functions'' and not characters is outright insulting to me. These characters are icons who have brought entertainment to millions upon millions of people. To have them reduced to the level of mechanics is ludicrous! They way they are saying it is as if They could just slap Dante's move set to, I dunno, Michelle heart and we wouldn't care is so wrong in so many levels. This is just like what happened with Ultra Street Fighter 4 and Decapre. I get why we don't get x-men characters, i really do. It's due to the whole license debacle with Disney marvel and fox and movies et cetera. It's why Marvel is trying to replace x-men with inhumans in the comics and no longer make fantastic 4 comics. But even if you can't use x-men, The roster is still super weak! The only surprising inclusion is Jedah, if the leak is even true! This game feels Half-assed!
Suika Ibuki you also must understand that they can't just say out the gate that there won't be x men characters, otherwise this game will be completely dismantled, their answers are convoluted and people are just assuming, until we hear further down the line and when it's finally released, that's where judgement time comes
Suika Ibuki Suika Ibuki this entire comment speaks to me. I honestly feel insulted I didn't put hours into Phoenix Wright because of the characters function I did it because I love him he is one of my favorite characters every. Treating him as a function is an insult to him and his fans.
Most people missed this part of the list so im posting it again 10. In the end gameplay should be the only thing that matter in a game right? But Characters in a fighting game/any game in general are a big part of what make a game great. Street Fighter was popular because for its time the gameplay was something new and everyone enjoyed. The gameplay was solid because each character was unique in their own way and players loved them because they could fit their own personality with them, many players which for who originally played X-Men COTA all the way to UMVC3 were able to fit theirs with their favorite X-Men characters. 11. Taking a step back, The X-Men, and specifically Magneto, didn't become famous because of their "functions" or any of the Marvel vs Capcom games. It was because I and others grew up with the X-Men wether you read the comics or watched the 90s joint or in any other way. 12. DISNEY/MARVEL Deserve most of the blame. But I do believe somewhere Capcom has something to do with this as well. What I've heard people say is that they don't believe they would be as popular. But I'm not sure this is the case but Capcom hasn't been good in their marketing decisions lately. 13. EDIT: HOLY SHIT I forgot CAPCOM are money whores. Sigman is fucking dlc when he apart of the main shitty storyline. Plus even if X-Men characters came along as DLC in a pack. Expected not 15 but a good 20-30$ Because Capcom and Marvel do know about their popularity. (Yeah Ik I may have exaggerated price estimation)
Spoilers: It was always business, it's just that they usually monetized their products by pandering to the nerds whereas now they pander to the normies whose only contact with marvel are the movies.
and people like fchamp won't say anything about this shit because they are under the thumb of their sponsors. "just functions". this game is in the wrong hands
This isn't a video game, it's an interactive advertisement designed to be a service (continuing DLC) rather than product. It's crazy how far Japanese companies have fallen from their glory days.
You must be lost in hope for gaming if you think this is how every company works, Yes i'm aware that the gaming Industry is Business OBVIOUSLY, but this is just pure Idiocy They are going against the fans wishes and all around common sense on improving their Content just treating it like it was some Paste bin movie game just for sales from mindless Parents buying it for their 3 yr old kids, This is an insult to the long standing community Unlike them SOME companies try to improve from their last game even if its not the same game They listen to their fans and work towards a bighter gaming future, This shit is just from people Who know nothing about the gaming spirit in creation, So @Shajam of the ninth dragon is right. This is just a back slap focusing of Non-gamers and just movie junkies, and not the fans themselves. What i said is my opinion and shouldint be taken as fact btw.
It's weird seeing max totally transition in emotion. When this game was announced did u see how hyped max was. Now he's here feeling depressed about this game. Don't get me wrong, max still wants the game but he just isn't as amped as he was before
Edge lord 9000 none of us are man. The leaked roster and terrible character models makes the game feel antiquated and easily kills the hype. Hopefully, they magically get their shit together and pull an Injustice 2 with graphics comparison vids.
To be completely honest, Capcom needs to delay the release. "A delayed game will eventually be good, a rushed game will be forever bad." Shigeru Miyamoto. I'd rather wait a little longer and get more polish in the game than getting it soon and get disappointed and just wait for patches. That's what happened in SFV for me at least. Capcom don't rush this. Give the characters the respect that they deserve. We only say this because we care, not because we want you to fail.
Mark MacLaren ikr? I can see that infinite’s been rushed. The roster, the character designs, storyline, etc etc, it’s all bad. I’m glad I didn’t waste my money on this game or I would of forever regretted it.
This is what happens when Capcom remains silent and not transparent with those who actually care about the game. Thus we get the whole "functions" post as our only information to work with. Like Max said, tell us more about the Online, Modes, Story, etc. Tell us more, gives us more about roster, DLC, will there be patches?
Gabriel Espiritu So you want them to say that marvel's to blame for their side of the roster? cause that's the truth and by doing so they likely burn that bridge by throwing marvel under the bus.
Gabriel Espiritu Combofiend said that "functions" thing likely becuase Capcom told him too. It's all to keep the heat off Marvel for the fact that they won't let them use certain characters.
It comes across like they are hiding something. We didn't get that much information on SF5 and I personally kept the faith until the very end, look how that turned out If everything but the current problems we know about isn't great, I am buying this used.
The quote about Magneto and his 8 way dash as well as the shit about the X-men had me face palming so hard. They couldn't be more wrong. I doubt there's anyone on this planet who'd rather play as Rocket Racoon over wolverine. Those developer comments had my skin crawling. Fuck this game. That is all
Magnum BadGuy I was grinding my fucking teeth when they referred to him and the rest of the X-Men characters as "Just functions." and that "Barely anyone remembers them." Seriously what the hell were they thinking?
Magnum BadGuy who? any RR player curfently rhere is a bunch Irongod uses rocket racoon, thor and dr strange, use to play ironman. so he will pick it. there is a bunch of players a that will play RR over any character. NOW if you would rephrase it to wich marvel player that plays/mains magneto would pick RR over him
I really prefer playing Rocket Raccoon over Wolverine! Hell, There are PLENTY of X-Men Characters I either just do not care for at all, or even flat out hate (though Storm is really the only 1 I can't stand at all). Literally the only X-Men Characters (that I consider X-Men Characters) that I could give any shit about are Deadpool, Phoenix, & X-23! Literally, my only other concern for the Marvel Side is, Where the fuck is Spiderman?!
I think this is what they mean talking about, "preserving the legacy of those characters". Sadly their legacy, for them, is the tecnical aspects abaout their gameplay and special moves. They wont say it directly, but X men, fantastic four and legacy characters, aren´t what they are going for. So yeahh, fuck this game!
This is a joke, no x-men and not even inhumans? I picked up the game because the characters were cool. This is a hot mess. The thing that hurts the most is they know what they're doing to us.
Capcom: "No one remembers the X-men characters". Fans: " You do know that both Deadpool and Logan made over 200 million dollars right?" Capcom: .......
Nah. It's more like: Disney speaking through Capcom: "No one remembers the X-Men characters". Fans: " You do know that both Deadpool and Logan made over 200 million dollars right?" Disney: .......
plus deadpool is getting a new animated series next year so hopefully he appears in the game in some capacity even as dlc so I think we will eventually see deadpool in the game.
Capcom: "No one remembers the X-men" Capcom: Makes the least interesting villain in the MCU and a megaman boss that hasn't been in a console game for 3 generations their main villains
Fans: "You do know that both Deadpool and Logan made over 200 million dollars right?" Disney: "I got you, fam..." www.ticgn.com/news/disney-is-blocking-the-xmen-franchise-from-expanding/
And? It can't be any worse than El Donde Espada, whose face is even uglier than original Dante. P.S. I'm not disagreeing with you, I'm just saying that "it could be worse".
Yeah, imagine what could have been. We could've lived in the timeline where this game is coming out in the state that it's in, and there's no hope or anything to look forward to on the horizon. Things could've been so much worse if we were just left with the option of eating the crap Capcom was shoveling out.
Ronzeru That game could not have been released at a better time. Its like mouthwash right after getting a taste of that funky morning breath. POW! Right in the kisser!
Marketing, that's what they're doing. They are telling us that what they are offering is what we need, not more, not less. Unfortunately, as Max said in 6:52, they are pushing the real fans to leave the game. This game is no longer for older fans, is focused on a new market, all they want is big numbers on sales, and if that means leaving the original fans for new fans and their money, they will do it gladly 😭😢
when he said that nobody barely knows who the x men are that shit cut deep. this fucking series was built with xmen. regardless of how well this game does in sales, this shit is dead to me. he fucking said forget about magneto because another character can do a similar dash. what the actual fuck. and then they're selling disk content as dlc like panther and sigma. THEY'RE BOTH IN THE FUCKING STORY MODE WITH THEIR OWN FUCKING MAPS!! WHY ARE THEY DLC????
SagreV MVC isn't something that new fans will even care that much for which is the most puzzling. If they wanted to simply appeal to new fans they should've just done a Marvel fighting game geared towards the new Marvel movie characters
It's funny that dude's repsonse that "characters don't matter" can easily be worked against itself. Like: "Why would we need Nova when we have Magneto then?"
What I don't like about the roster are, It's recycled, there aren't much enjoyment to play new characters and discover their potential. I mean ,we have seen these characters before in UMVC and the moves aren't much changed and I know the gameplay of this game is different ,but going to that road not taken will be not possible. The size of the roster is not admirable, It is less and the possibility of watching players using low tier characters will decrease, I mean who is the one who doesn't want to watch players using low tier characters and enjoy their victory. So we will keep seeing Ultron/Thanos tandem or diferrent from that, again and again and It is boring to watch that.And I agree to the variety of the characters of the two companies, Capcom has many games ,so much characters to put in the game and kinda put some landmark on the game they were in, and so does marvel , who exclude X- men characters because of what , rights? If I were a billionaire owning a company who sells products, I will do everything to advertise it ,not only that but to preserve it, introduce it to the world. So Capcom and Marvel, please play your game right ,because it will be a game over for you.
Damn, those quotes were cringe worthy. These devs are not clueless. They're doing what they think will make the most money, which means ignoring the people who genuinely care about the game. It's sad but you just gotta vote with you're wallet. Disney vs Crapcom will only listen when the money stops coming in.
TryHardHero Capcom isn't helping themselves with some of their roster choices. Both Arthur and if true Firebrand instead of another IP character like from Ace Attorney, Viewtiful Joe or Onimusha is a shame. I also don't understand why they kept Spencer's reboot design when one of his alternate costumes in three is his classic attire. Hopefully Monster Hunter ends up being pretty super and I want to see Jedah in action.
Starsoulklr Digging their own graves. People loved MvC2 because of it's big, diverse roster. If they can't do that now, due to rights or laziness, then I'm not gonna support it. Monster hunter is exciting from the capcom side, I'll give them that, but yes, they have a huge pool of IPs to choose from and they haven't even scratched the surface. On the Marvel side, no X-Men equals no buy for me. I'm not gonna tell people how to spend their money but why buy something you're not fully content with?
I really can't help but think we're looking at another SFV incident at this rate. There's a lot of work that's needed. Lots of little touches. They can't afford to rush it.
+rafadesenhista That would ironically be like a great move because then the DB FighterZ hype would have like died down a bit and they'd have a better chance to sell to people. And all the people who bought FighterZ over MvCI would be like restocked a bit so they'll be able to like get around to that better.
I see it as the opposite: they made it overly accessible. Max said that some of the combos felt easier and more meant for new players. Also, the fact that they're trying to pretend that only the MCU is what matters means that they're aiming at people who just came into marvel with the films. No care for the people who have played the game for years or have read the comics for years.
I heard about that. certain pros are love a character and is good at that character can make that specific character a top tier if it proves to be fruitful.
The reason why I won't get it is because it's represents laziness at its finest. Sure, it plays good, but that can't be the sole thing going for it. It looks pretty bad in comparison to past fighters, its roster is so puny, the story mode seems to be really awful and awkward like a fanfiction, and represents bad business practice with day one dlc, or more specifically, on disc dlc. It feels like a game that needs far more time to be developed and feels really rushed.
Isn't everything FanFiction nowadays? Don't people who work in writing department of almost anything actual fans of the property? FanFiction isn't bad, it just how you use the characters and settings you love. Look at Project X Zone and Kingdom Hearts, their story is basically fanfiction but well done enough to sell well and overall be enjoyable.
At least the Capcom side is trying to some extent. They have two interesting choices on Capcom's side, but the Marvel side has almost nothing at the moment.
Ok, how can capcom even remotely be this dense. When Sf didnt have Ryu and ken, people outraged. Why, when MvC doesnt have xmen, would it be any different. Thats like having injustice 3 not have batman or superman and instead have Deadman bc some justice league dark movie came out in the future and its all the rage. This is dumb as hell
this time its not capcom fault (for more weird that sounds), its marvel`s fault bc they want to push their shitty cinematic universe in the game, and that means no x-men because fox owns the rights.
noah10cool1 it more Disney fault they are not allowing capcom to put the x men in because they are trying there best to make x men no longer relevant the sad thing is it working
Natalia Casados ...and FOX brought the movie rights fair and square. Fun Fact: the reason why Marvel had to sell the movie rights is they went bankrupt in the mid-late 90's because they help cause the comic book crash of the mid90's
Some people may not remember the X-Men characters, but they do know the guardians of the galaxy characters, you know what I mean? Up until they released that movie I didn't even know what a guardian of the galaxy was, then someone explained it to me and I thought he was fucking with me. According to the interview I guess I just don't remember most of my childhood, X who?
MvCI has no excuse. Even with the Xmen cut out, marvel could have easily compensated in new characters from various comics, but they decided to port the majority of mvc3 with that unholy abomination mobile GRAFFIX paint job. It's like they made a game that could function on the vita and forgot that nobody plays it.
well capcom is the one making the game so they were the ones who got to chose the characters for the roster so while marvel just recommend characters for capcom so they are mostly to blame for the roster.
Honestly it made me actually feel bad when I saw the function comment, In MVC3 I picked Spider-man as a main and failed at using him for a long time but always went back to him because i have always loved the character. If they had Spencer play exactly like spiderman I would have never gravitated towards him. The notion that X-Men characters are not popular or that Marvel is trying to get rid of them is absurd to me, they have had a ton of ongoing series for the last few years that have been amazing to read. I feel like with a lot of these changes characters like young Cyclops or Iceman would be really cool to see return. Give us Ms.Marvel who is just nuts popular since she has been created. I would play those characters if they were low tier just on the fact that they are in the game and would be fun to use them. Not sure what Capcom is doing but it feels like they are letting other factors decide what goes into the roster. We got Rocket and Arthur back from MVC3? Oh yeah they were crazy popular right there must have been tons of marvel players asking for them back... c'mon man. I want to see this game do good, and I love the way the game plays so far with the expanded creativity of combos. But dont make me pick up Spencer because he is kind of spider-man lol, or black panther because he is kind of wolverine. That's that bullshit Capcom
If they don't want to promote the X-Men characters which are better than the MCU characters. Then why not add Daredevil, Luke Cage, Jessica Jones,Punisher or blade instead.
Max, you know for damn sure those characters aren't coming. It's clear their hands are tied and there is no way they can bring in anything beside what they own in the MCU. Regardless the game still looks like it was produced by an indie studio and has some of the worst art design, character models, and voice acting in the genre.
Even if they can't use the X-Men or F4 characters for rights reasons (Which they can because Fox only has the movie rights and Marvel still has merchandise rights), that doesn't excuse this tiny roster. There's dozens of characters Marvel still has the rights to use that could compensate for the X-Men and such, but instead they're just going with the basic, stock characters that everybody knew already was gonna be in the game.
Shollos - Blame Disney for this. Mervel wants back the Xmen characters from Fox but Fox ain't playing into Marvels hand so Marvel is trying to make the XMen irrelevant so that people forget about XMen and the Fox movies bomb.
Max for the love of everything fun about fighting games and the future of this franchise , DO NOT BUY, PLAY, or PROMOTE this game. WE NEED TO SEND CAPCOM A MESSAGE.
I hate how they're not going to add X-Men characters even though ALL THE MOBILE GAMES HAVE THE FRIGGEN X-MEN THE X-MEN ARE ARGUABLY THE HIGHLIGHT OF THE MvC SERIES GET YOUR ASSES TOGETHER _THESE CHARACTERS ARE NOT "MODES." THEY. ARE. YOUR. LEGACY._
Jake I mean I was never a fan of the xmen, I'm more disappointed in the lack of Spider-Man characters and cap on characters like Phoenix Wright and Veutiful Joe
The fact that those games that are even more owned by Marvel have xmen baffles me why this game does not have them. I want Gambit, Magneto, Wolverine, Sentinel, Rouge, Psylocke. Man I would even take now stereotypically gay iceman just someone from the xmen to show they even kinda care.
My biggest gripe with how MVC:I is I feel that it is being fully catered not to MvC fans, but more towards selling the new Marvel Universe and whatever movies are or will be out. There's always been this tone of "over the top wacky bullshit". This just feels like the game is taking itself too serious and doesn't want to "tarnish" whatever they are trying to sell.
It's not even catered to new Marvel comics. No Spider-Gwen,Miles Morales,Iron Heart,Hydra Cap,Kamala Khan,Jane Foster,or any of that. They're catering to the movie watchers
To me its simple: the roster SUCKS! We were expecting a lot of new characters, there are many, MANY characters from dozens of different Capcom games that people have been asking for since the first MVC. And what do they do? They recycle the MVC3 roster and bring back characters like Arthur and Spencer?? Nobody wanted them in 3 to begin with! They are only adding like 5-6 new characters and will obviously sell new ones as DLC, wich kinda gives me a SFxTK feeling. And there goes my chance to see some Power Stone, Red Earth, Rival Schools, Cyberbots characters, a RE other than Chris and more Darkstalkers characters other than Morrigan (i know Jedah is rumored but it'd take J Talbain, Demitri, Donovan or even BB Hood over him any day). And thats for Capcom, I wont even talk about Marvel or i'll drown in a sea o salt!
Oi, I can at least accept Arthur - the dude's at risk of getting forgotten about if Capcom doesn't have him in. That said, most of Capcom's roster seems to be yanked right out of Project X Zone (with exception of, as you said, Spencer); heck, X being in this game seems like hollow pandering at best.
moonfish Jon Talbain being in this game would be a rare miracle, while he may be loved in the West, sadly the Japanese seem to have cold feet for him and only want him to be relegated to cameos
+moonfish I actually like the fact that Arthur is in, firebrand is the on that I am curious why they chose him. Also spencer came back because of combofeind, literally. Not even joking combofiend brought back spencer
Out of all the RE characters they could've thrown around I most expected Wesker. Y'know...cause he's supernaturally powerful and has a great skill set for a fighting game.
I agreed with all of this except the Jedah thing, I am excited that he may be appear, however I do agree about how more darkstalkers characters should appear. P.S. Also where in the hell is Felicia! SJW censorship strikes again I guess :(
Millicente which is frightening because of the roster so far on this game and based on these producers comments they have no clue of what they are doing. We should have it all
"Magneto is Magneto because he's Magneto."
- Max, 2017.
KamektheMagikoopa1 sound like what Batman said to Gothamgirl
powerwegy Zenki
thats so fucking true
That's some of the realest shit I heard today.
Can you describe better what Max said cause I think he couldn't make it any better than that.
Magneto is a favorite because he has 8-way dash? Magneto is a favorite because HE'S FUCKING MAGNETO
you mean mag-freaking-neto
mag-fucking-neto*
Welcome to DIE!
I can relate to that. Not for Mag-fucking-neto, but Strider. I learned how to use him because I discovered he's a ninja.
I highly doubt people played Magneto for the character back then. If the roles were reversed and all the Capcom characters were better and were picked OVER the marvel characters and the game was dubbed, "Capcom" over "Mahvel" we honestly wouldn't be making a huge fuss over X-men characters.
Can we just ship Max over to Capcom
Not so they can hire him, but just so he can rant for a while until security kicks him out and hopefully within that time some of the staff go "hey Power Stone characters, that's a neat idea."
Oh hey It's Lythero. Neat.
Lythero Rest in peace Phoenix Wright and Viewtiful Joe "functions". Dante doesn't look too hot either.
The very notion of 'characters being nothing more than functions' completely misses the point about what the initial draw to a fighting game is. You look for characters to connect to, you find something visually to grab you and draw you in. That's the initial pull.
Peter Rosas' statement is so ass backwards, those two paragraphs were incredibly infuriating to read. I think that's actually put the final nail in the coffin for any hype i had left for this game.
At some level, he isn't completely wrong, but say the skeleton is what sells Magneto, is dangerous. Presentation matters. Particularly if you are competing with your past self.
yes some characters have functions that make them favored more so than certain ones. but to say that these characters are "just functions" and to forget about them is a dumbass statement. i can't even believe what I'm reading from that interview. do these guys know they're working on a marvel vs capcom title?
DiGi Valentine Exactly I became Wolverine in 1999
Exactly. If the characters are just "functions" as he says then what's the point of even giving each individual character a skin texture and instead just make them look like the wireframe fighters from melee? They're just FUNCTIONS after all, who CARES what they look like, where they're from or they play a role in the story? Might as well just make Ryus model name "karate guy" and give him a flat, polygonal, featureless body for all the difference it makes if he's just considered a "function".
You lost hype for the game? But it has Ryu and boring ass Chun-Li in it.
"Your modern Marvel fan, maybe they don't even remember some of the X-men characters"
How could you say that and still keep your job?
hilarious - especially since there have been at least 10 x-men themed movies over the past few years. So what are they trying to say??
sorry but your modern marvel fan is an absolute shithead who has poor taste in everything and if you cant remember the x-men then you're probably brain dead
Kyle J What is your cut off for a modern marvel fan and a classic marvel fan? I’m curious.
Numb Cube “Modern” fans worship the MCU and don’t care to acknowledge much else. “Classic” fans appreciate ALL Marvel content including stuff outside of and prior to the MCU, which is now constantly being crammed down our throats.
@@Mechasonicrocks And that's the rub... the fact the MCU is shoved down our throats due to Disney's greed and arrogance too.
Captain America looks like a fucking Battletoad.
That's like an insult to the Battletoads.
Sir Caco maybe one of the battletoads ate him.
he does doesn't he? Rash from KI looked at him like..... Zitz?
ikr
He looks like Pimple! :D
The X-Men franchise almost single-handedly kept Marvel relevant in the late 80s-early 2000s. Seeing them getting treated this way is a joke.
greenskiis It really is my dood.
greenskiis Its just because Marvel/Disney don't own the rights to make the movies. They are using this game as just cheap ass ad for their MCU movies. Capcom must be desperate for money or is too stupid
greenskiis to be fair spiderman also did the heavy lifting back then plus he was the poster child for marvel before iron man 1 came out sadly I get a bad feeling spidey will be dlc sadly to promote homecoming
You mean the X-Function franchise.
"Maybe they don't even remember the X-Men!" Yeah, wish we had a very successful drama movie about Wolverine or a very popular new movie franchise about Deadpool that became one of the most successful R movies... >_>
Remember how this whole thing started with Akuma in an X-MEN game?
And now Akuma is kicking ass in a kick ass Tekken game.
Evil Ryu Akuma really likes to fight a lot. sf, xmen, marvel, capcom, tekken etc is not fucking enough!
Akuma kills the fighting games universes
+gg af I'm personally waiting for akuma to pop up in guilty gear, blazblue and anime
gg af I can see why ryu made it in Smash
"People don't remember the X-Men" Logan, Deadpool, The 90's X Men Series, & THE MARVEL VS CAPCOM FRANCHISE would like to have a word with you. People don't only care about the characters Disney decides they should.
Hollow ' what they shouldve said was X-Men aren't the first thing when people think of Marvel. Be real that's what people think of. The Avengers then Spiderman then Guardians then X-Men. Its been like that for a while now. And lets be real there were people like myself who complained about there being too many X-Men. All you need is Magneto, Storm, Wolverine and maybe Deadpool. That's it.
aquapyro1 People don't think of X Men when they hear MCU not marvel imo.
aquapyro1 also I don't think anyone besides someone really new to either the MCU or Marvel in general thinks of the freaking Guardians when they hear marvel. They just became relevant like 5 minutes ago.
aquapyro1 I do agree though we don't need every freaking X Men.. Storm, Deadpool, Wolverine, Magneto, & THA GAWD DOOM makes Marvel Vs Capcom games stick with you though.
X Men were hella prevalent back in the day. I sucked at MvC2 but I loved watching people play for the flash. and I also think that the movie side of things is what's dictating the Mvci roster at this point. they know goddamn well people were looking for certain characters. they're just PRing their asses off at this point.
1. Peter believes characters are just functions and there could be no other reason why we like certain characters.
2. X-men are apparently forgotten characters but Logan recently came out this year and was a hit and Deadpool 2 is coming out and will most likely include more X-men cameos.
3. Personally I'd rather play with any X-men character or a Gaurdians of the Galaxy character any day. (Based on what I see out of the community others who i talk too agree with me)
4. Most of the roster are reused anyways.
5. X-men Children of the Atom birthed the Marvel vs Capcom series.
#5 Something Combofiend and the rest of the idiots at Cashcom seem to be forgetting.
It's not like the decision about X-Men inclusion is up to Capcom. Thanks, Ike Perlmutter.
7. This is most likely DISNEY/MARVEL in response to not having the MOVIE RIGHTS. Hence why X-men and Fantastic 4 are specifically not their but highly favored.
8. Yes it's just the movie rights but DISNEY/MARVEL still would'nt want the characters in the game because it promotes the companies who owns the movies rights to X-Men. (Im pretty its Fox)
9. Going off of number 8. I'm pretty sure since the Marvel Cinematic Universe has an obvious good amount of influence on the Marvel Roster. This game is most likely happening because it's giving DISNEY/MARVEL a easy/cheap way of promoting their (in my opinion) overrated movies for the MCU fan boys.
I addressed this in a different comment
Sorry, the point is very much clear no need for so many points, its Disney Pushing SJW.
As they did on all of its movies this year and having being doing for a while with egverything they touch.
Marcelo Tezza How would adding the X-Men to MvC would trigger SJWs??? I mean yeah SJWs hate just about anything but I don't even think they would attack this.
IN THE CINEMATIC OF UMVC3 MAGNETO IS IN THE FRONT OF GALACTUS BECAUSE HE IS JUST A FUNCTION.
Who's Magneto again?
@@Waltersop the guy with 8-way dash function
"They're just functions."
And that statement right there is what will help ruin the game and it's initial sales. If that were the case, you could have a gray character with no features, call him Anonymous Andy, and just cause you change the moveset and mobility he's automatically a new and fresh character. People don't play characters just cause of their moves. it's a factor but how they look also adds to the charm. Edgelord over the top character Reaper in Overwatch wouldn't be nearly as cool or fun if he was just some dude. Chipp Zannuff, president and ninja, would not be as fun if all he was was just "A function" that could teleport. MAGNETO DID NOT GET POPULAR CAUSE HE'S A FUCKING FUNCTION!
Like, I want this game to do well but it's like Capcom/Marvel/Disney/whoever the fuck is responsible is trying their hardest to hurt this games sales. Cause believe it or not, this is not just some start up franchise. This is not a game that has only functions. This game is a legacy game, both in concept and the characters within each universe. And you treat them like they're nothing, like they're just tools. Like they have no real value.
That's sad....that's really disappointing and sad.
.....On that note I guess we don't need Krillin, Android 18, or Beerus in DBFZ since they're just functions. Just put Saibamen with their moveset in and we're good HAHA!
Draconian Soul I know what you mean but I honestly would dig the idea of saibamen having the mokujin gimmick
actually cell Jr's would be more appropriate for that gimmick
yeah, if you look at smash bros, it would be an game called dragon something the fighting game, with random dudes, it would not have been as popular if it wasnt an fighting game with the most iconic characters (and an few less iconic characters) from nintendo, the game even made mother (earthbound) and fire emblem popular just because ness and marth/roy were in it!
not even to mention that when an smash bros is being in development, every nintendo direct or e3 presentation gets hyped just to see which new characters that they will put in the game, like, just watch that reaction video of max reacting to cloud being in smash, that is the "motive" of why smash bros sells.
that is what mvci is lacking at moment... from the marvel side, in my opinion.
that's the "pro" gamer's point of view.
They don't care "who" a character is just as long as they have optimal move sets.
Whoever gave the functions comment has got to be the most emotionless husk of a developer/producer I've ever heard about in the industry. I've heard EA reps give more pretend passion then I can see in this interview.
Ultimate Function vs Function 3: Fate of two Functions.

The Progenitor Has 696969 been announced?
when's twelve
Yo, yo, man, how you gonna ignore f (x) = 2x^2 + 11x? F(x) = 5x - 13 was a great add to the roster, but F (x) = 2x^2 + 11x was the core of that game! Don't even try to tell me you didn't pick him even once!
Characters are just functions,

"Your modern marvel fan, maybe they don't even remember some of the X-Men characters"
Meanwhile, on the Capcom side, we have such long time fan favourites like... Spencer and Arthur and.... Firebrand! (if the leak is true). You know, all those classic household name characters that everyone knows and loves!
PSISomething Arthur is probably the most known, but there hasn't been a new game in years.
PSISomething this is gold. literally should have the most likes
I would like some version of Ryu from Breath of Fire
on the capcom side the people at capcom forgot about X and Megaman.........THE only reason he got into Smash Bros was because a younger kid that worked at capcom remembered him....FROM MARVEL VS CAPCOM 2
i love Arthur tbh
It's a really real Real Talk when there's no music in the background.
DAMN.
Daniel Gonzalez oh shit!
Daniel Gonzalez dude I took note of that as well. No music, no gameplay. He literally just sat down and spoke his hear ton the subject. You know it's a concerning issue when Max does something like this.
Was just thinking the same thing... mad depressing :(
no MVC2 Airship/Swamp/Factory/Theme Park stage music. not even the Training stage theme lol. yeah...shits real as all fuck right now...all Max is missing is a bottle of whiskey...
Characters are functions in the same way the internet is a series of tubes
1. If the characters are just functions, who will succeed the FOOT DIVE?
2. "Captain Marvel may seem like a strange pick, but she's fantastic." She IS a strange pick, considering she's poorly written in the comics (and has been relaunched at least 5 times now due to poor sales) and is a very disliked character.
3. I can certainly name a lot more X-Men villains than other Marvel franchises, excluding Spiderman.
I don't want Capcom to massively fail, but I want this game to do poorly because they seriously need to be humbled.
The funny thing is we don't even have any Spiderman villains yet LOL!
I'd love to play as elektro!

Funny where we've arrived today after motherfreaking *_X-Men: Children of the Atom_* gave birth to the entire Marvel vs Capcom franchise in the first place.

WolFaun GUYVERRRRRR!
WolFaun TRUTH!

*IT'S FUHNCTION BAYBEE*
"When's Fuhnction?!"
Phew, that was a close one, I was worried about being excited for this game for a while.
I love Max's long, befuddled pauses after reading the Capcom PR responses
Just like many other reactions of millions of fans. It's understandable
Yeah who cares about characters? Its not like its a cross-over series.
Riiiiiiiiiight?
Characters are just functions, right?
The idea that only the moveset matters is hilarious when talking about a crossover game
Brandonious15987 Stickmen the Fighting Game, all the characters are stickmen.

The answer is this is a game not for fans! This is CAPCOM at their most lousy, where they are hoping just to cash in on Marvel movie popularity and are making a minimalist game so they can minimize cost and maximize profit.
Its not about Legacy. Its about money. The people making the game have no concept of Legacy or history
SAD TO SAY BUT TRUE NOBODY CARES ABOUT LEGACY OR HISTORY EXAMPLE: TRANSFORMERS-THE LAST KNIGHT
Agreed, they still have not learned their lesson from SFV
Recycled recycled recycled all while giving less content in each game and charging for DLC
If you had told me growing up that capcom would look like crap compared to a game from the guys who made mortal kombat I'd laugh at you
Do you idiots realize that Capcom does not own Marvel? You realize Marvel decides which Marvel character is in the game.
You have to give as much of the blame to Marvel as well, their the reason alot of characters are not appearing in the game. On that front Capcom has no control
"Your modern Marvel fan, maybe they don't even remember some of the X-Men characters, but they know some of the Guardians characters or Black Panther. You know what I mean?"

"characters are just functions"
"no one remembers the Xmen"
Who do they think they're selling this game to?! I know the gameplay might be good, but those statements are mind boggling!
Edit: I just found out about the removal of mvc origins and 2, guess that should have been a warning for all of us.
This game is for MCU Normie's.
Sad times. This might be the end of the franchise.
Kaz Kobb it is a shame 😠
Sebastian Contreras A damn shame
hence why its called Infinite instead of 4. which is fine considering modders can update graphical skins, tweak the gameplay in tourney acceptable ways, and even buff the netcode just in case its SF4/SFV quality out of the box. yall can play this for 10+ years and have plenty to explore.
You think?
I dunno, people thought that after MVC3. We will have to see.
You know the Real Talk is REAL when he doesn't have bgm going.
mic2dl kek this
The slap in the face for me is when they said no one knew the X-men and people will immediately know who Black Panther is. With the simplified controls, I wouldn't be surprised if their audience are 10 years that just know the MCU.
Me either, which is why I bear a slight grudge against it.
The reason I particularly want this game to flop is for Capcom to finally get through their heads that they cannot keep treating games as a catalyst for sponsors and e-sport income. I want this to fail so Capcom understands that, for all the love we had towards them in the past, they are not the same company anymore, they do not deserve to make any games like this and expect that everyone that is not sponsored to accept any crap that comes out of their mouths:
- 2011: No, we didn't release UMvC3 as a stand-alone title because we wanted more money (Yes, you did)
- 2012: No, the cross-play on SFxTK only works on PS3 because the architectures of PSN and XBL are different (No, it's because you had a deal with Sony since before release)
- 2015: SFV will have a 3-frame input window so players can more easily pull off combos (No, It's because you can't figure out how to properly code on UE4 so your game inherently has delay that you can't fix and you came out with a bullshit excuse to cover the fact that no-one could pull any combos on that environment without an input buffer)
- 2016: No, Marvel vs Capcom Infinte has no ties with the Marvel cinematic universe so we have the freedom to use every character (False. No X-Men, Fantastic Four or Spiderman characters confirmed yet for the game and initial roster looking like Disney shilling)
- 2017: USF2 is the DEFINITIVE way to play SF2 (No. You POORLY re-used assets from SF4 and called it an extra feature, POORLY re-used sprites from HD Remix and called it new characters, POORLY implemented an online component and more, and you sold it for WAAAAY more than HD Remix)
I'm sorry. WHY should I trust Capcom AGAIN?
"No, we didn't release UMvC3 as a stand-alone title because we wanted more money (Yes, you did)"
No, they didn't. They clearly released UMvC3 as a standalone because it WAS going to be DLC, but then that tsunami struck and caused major delays. The proceeds went to those affected. Get your facts right next time.
This is why I hate the Capcom fanbase....they don't do research and assume the worst.
So you are saying that it took a tsunami for them to not be greedy.
That's pretty shitty.
Pretty much the exact reason why this game needs to be boycott. They hardly cared to make it 5 years ago, and now that UMvC3 is almost near the end of its slow death they're deciding to cash in. Fuck Cashcom.
DiegoBQZ - Neodanger the SFV thing is not incompetence, it is a deliberate thing. The reason they did that is because they did want it to be easier and for online to feel the same as offline.
Which is a horrible decision and one of the many reasons people hate SFV, me included.
I'm kinda feeling that 2017 has been a lot about things going south, but I hope it will be for the better and that the shittyness of our current times will help a lot of people wake up to the fact that it's time we put more demands on, well, everyone to value quality and ideals over quantity and greed.
This felt like an intervention.
MopedOfJustice He's not a sellout at all, he said he loves the series with a passion and is willing to look past the negatives and embrace the positives, (That being the gameplay.) but he is still massively disappointed. You can clearly tell by his expression through out the video that he is not happy.
How did you get that Vibe? Max has *NEVER* Been a sellout even when he was in Assist Me
MopedOfJustice We grew up with these games some of us are disappointed but want to give it a try regardless. But man I'm terribly upset at this game but I love these games
MopedOfJustice he has played the game and said the game is fun to play we don't get the full vibe with the story demo but the vs aspect is fun according to a lot of people it's the look they kind of forgot about it the look is important to a lot of people which I agree it is and that's what's giving it a vibe no ones talking about the game they are talking about the look and yes the roster but we don't fully know what's happening we can't judge it until we have it but I will agree the roster needs to be better
Well that's a complicated situation that you know the game is not good but you also don't want it to hurt its selling by criticizing relentlessly.
Making a Marvel vs Capcom game without Wolverine is NOT MvC.
I love these games, I played them in the arcades for years and years but... I simply no longer wish to buy MvCI
Oz-suka Capcom didn't really have a choice on that front.
Oz-suka it's still a MvC game whether or not wolverine is in the game. And nobody gives a shit if you aren't going to buy
''bu-bu-but kids don't know who wolverine is (really nigga? the mofo just had one of the most popular movies on the genre and their comics are always solid and in the case of old man logan, fucking awesome) or deadpool (another fucking hit character in comics and movies) but they know who rocket raccoon (even when the latest movie and comics are fucking shit)''
+Bod Dole you care enough to comment???
Bob Dole nah man, pretty sure a lot of people aren't going to buy the game because of this shit roster
Lol you cant even play both the bosses on a team without paying DLC for one. Im just gonna call this game Function Vs Function Limited from now on.
Delay the game a full year and add all the characters Max talks about, and the game will peform a lot better saleswise.
A year and a half... so they add a bigger roster and new stuffs to the game.
That's all very well, but if Marvel won't let them, they can't include them, I'm afraid.
Yeah. If they didn’t rushed it and took their time with characters, graphic arts, etc etc, then it would of sell well. But no, they’ve ruined everything.
CAPCOM: "We don't really have any restrictions from marvel side"
Me: "Cool, so we might have X-men characters after all? If you guys need to focus on the MCU it's fine.
*shit roster gets leaked*
Me: "Hey wtf guys?? Where the hell is Loki? Black Widow? Hello? Are we even seeing X-men characters??"
CAPCOM: "Look, kid, characters are just functions"
Best Comment so far
You forgot
Marvel: "No X-men!
Capcom: "Well shit"
To hell with whoever made that "functions" comment. No amount of PR BS is going to make us forget about Magneto, Storm, Wolverine or otherwise.
lol it was Combofiend. Poor guy needs to come out and say all this nonsense for capcom.
I think he was talking more to the pro community, and I bet the reason Magneto was so popular in MvC3 tournaments had jack shit to do with his character.
Dear Marvel and Capcom. You don't get to tell potential customers what they want. That isn't how this works. Your game will bomb if you stick to this path.
RJay12291 apple has bigger name brand that's why get away with it.
Wade Wilson it already is. dont bother buying this shit
Why are you saying this as though Marvel or Capcom directly made these decisions? It's a bunch of licenses used by developers
Matt Smith - People know they cant be on it due to stupid licensing reasons between Marvel and Fox etc. However what your missing about what people are pissed off about is the developers trying to tell people we dont NEED xmen or that we should forget them or even worst that we only liked them in the first place simply because of how they played! I hated the way wolverine played but i always had him in my team because i fuckin love WOLVERINE
Fighting game's roster is, in my opinion, the most important aspect. Fighting games are perfect way to showcase cool and kickass characters. If we had a fighting game with very good engine and mechanics, but all the characters in it would be color swaps with different movesets....Who would wanna play that?!
The fact the devs are treating these characters as ''functions'' and not characters is outright insulting to me. These characters are icons who have brought entertainment to millions upon millions of people. To have them reduced to the level of mechanics is ludicrous! They way they are saying it is as if They could just slap Dante's move set to, I dunno, Michelle heart and we wouldn't care is so wrong in so many levels. This is just like what happened with Ultra Street Fighter 4 and Decapre.
I get why we don't get x-men characters, i really do. It's due to the whole license debacle with Disney marvel and fox and movies et cetera. It's why Marvel is trying to replace x-men with inhumans in the comics and no longer make fantastic 4 comics. But even if you can't use x-men, The roster is still super weak! The only surprising inclusion is Jedah, if the leak is even true! This game feels Half-assed!
Suika Ibuki you also must understand that they can't just say out the gate that there won't be x men characters, otherwise this game will be completely dismantled, their answers are convoluted and people are just assuming, until we hear further down the line and when it's finally released, that's where judgement time comes
And EVEN Jedah is going to be dumbed down
Think again.
Suika Ibuki Suika Ibuki this entire comment speaks to me. I honestly feel insulted I didn't put hours into Phoenix Wright because of the characters function I did it because I love him he is one of my favorite characters every. Treating him as a function is an insult to him and his fans.
Most people missed this part of the list so im posting it again
10. In the end gameplay should be the only thing that matter in a game right? But Characters in a fighting game/any game in general are a big part of what make a game great. Street Fighter was popular because for its time the gameplay was something new and everyone enjoyed. The gameplay was solid because each character was unique in their own way and players loved them because they could fit their own personality with them, many players which for who originally played X-Men COTA all the way to UMVC3 were able to fit theirs with their favorite X-Men characters.
11. Taking a step back, The X-Men, and specifically Magneto, didn't become famous because of their "functions" or any of the Marvel vs Capcom games. It was because I and others grew up with the X-Men wether you read the comics or watched the 90s joint or in any other way.
12. DISNEY/MARVEL Deserve most of the blame. But I do believe somewhere Capcom has something to do with this as well. What I've heard people say is that they don't believe they would be as popular. But I'm not sure this is the case but Capcom hasn't been good in their marketing decisions lately.
13. EDIT: HOLY SHIT I forgot CAPCOM are money whores. Sigman is fucking dlc when he apart of the main shitty storyline. Plus even if X-Men characters came along as DLC in a pack. Expected not 15 but a good 20-30$ Because Capcom and Marvel do know about their popularity. (Yeah Ik I may have exaggerated price estimation)
I wouldn't be surprised if they put them up for $30, tbh. lol
This is truely madness.. this isint gaming, this is just pure Business to them..disgusting.
Spoilers: It was always business, it's just that they usually monetized their products by pandering to the nerds whereas now they pander to the normies whose only contact with marvel are the movies.
and people like fchamp won't say anything about this shit because they are under the thumb of their sponsors.
"just functions". this game is in the wrong hands
This isn't a video game, it's an interactive advertisement designed to be a service (continuing DLC) rather than product. It's crazy how far Japanese companies have fallen from their glory days.
Welcome to the real world bud
You must be lost in hope for gaming if you think this is how every company works,
Yes i'm aware that the gaming Industry is Business OBVIOUSLY, but this is just pure Idiocy
They are going against the fans wishes and all around common sense on improving their
Content just treating it like it was some Paste bin movie game just for sales from mindless
Parents buying it for their 3 yr old kids, This is an insult to the long standing community
Unlike them SOME companies try to improve from their last game even if its not the same game
They listen to their fans and work towards a bighter gaming future, This shit is just from people
Who know nothing about the gaming spirit in creation, So @Shajam of the ninth dragon is right.
This is just a back slap focusing of Non-gamers and just movie junkies, and not the fans themselves.
What i said is my opinion and shouldint be taken as fact btw.
It's weird seeing max totally transition in emotion. When this game was announced did u see how hyped max was. Now he's here feeling depressed about this game. Don't get me wrong, max still wants the game but he just isn't as amped as he was before
Edge lord 9000 none of us are man. The leaked roster and terrible character models makes the game feel antiquated and easily kills the hype. Hopefully, they magically get their shit together and pull an Injustice 2 with graphics comparison vids.
It's a hell of a trip if you loop this around back to his initial reaction with Marvel's Contest of Champions.
Edge lord 9000 duh. Have you see how. Limited this game is going to be. I'd be depressed to if I was a big fan of this game
Edge lord 9000 Max state: it hurts to live.
JacksonJin they are even reusing asset from that game
Never thought I'd be completely uninterested in a new Marvel vs Capcom game... :(
i know
it's been tradition at this point all Capcom titles will eventually turn to shit or die out
blame marvel
so true
JF Salles Couldn't agree more.
To be completely honest, Capcom needs to delay the release. "A delayed game will eventually be good, a rushed game will be forever bad." Shigeru Miyamoto. I'd rather wait a little longer and get more polish in the game than getting it soon and get disappointed and just wait for patches. That's what happened in SFV for me at least. Capcom don't rush this. Give the characters the respect that they deserve. We only say this because we care, not because we want you to fail.
Mark MacLaren ikr? I can see that infinite’s been rushed. The roster, the character designs, storyline, etc etc, it’s all bad. I’m glad I didn’t waste my money on this game or I would of forever regretted it.
This is what happens when Capcom remains silent and not transparent with those who actually care about the game. Thus we get the whole "functions" post as our only information to work with. Like Max said, tell us more about the Online, Modes, Story, etc. Tell us more, gives us more about roster, DLC, will there be patches?
Gabriel Espiritu So you want them to say that marvel's to blame for their side of the roster? cause that's the truth and by doing so they likely burn that bridge by throwing marvel under the bus.
Gabriel Espiritu Combofiend said that "functions" thing likely becuase Capcom told him too. It's all to keep the heat off Marvel for the fact that they won't let them use certain characters.
It comes across like they are hiding something. We didn't get that much information on SF5 and I personally kept the faith until the very end, look how that turned out
If everything but the current problems we know about isn't great, I am buying this used.
*Marvel Functions vs Capcom Functions Infinite*
Side note. All our bad ass female characters are gone. Storm, Jean Grey, Jill, C-Viper, X-23, Trish. Wow, now im depressed
Correction: What's wrong with Avengers Vs. Capcom Infinite?
what about: MCU(+Nova) vs Capcom.........featuring Spencer
MCU Vs. Street Fighter + friends
SuperiorBryce98 I will be less mad at this game if they named it like that
SuperiorBryce98 I like the MCU vs Capcom that people are using better.
SuperiorBryce98 MCU vs Capcom limited
I would rather have seen Howard the Duck and Spider-Ham than half of the Marvel characters they have slapped in there.
gpturismo yeah! 👍
The quote about Magneto and his 8 way dash as well as the shit about the X-men had me face palming so hard. They couldn't be more wrong. I doubt there's anyone on this planet who'd rather play as Rocket Racoon over wolverine. Those developer comments had my skin crawling. Fuck this game.
That is all
Magnum BadGuy I was grinding my fucking teeth when they referred to him and the rest of the X-Men characters as "Just functions." and that "Barely anyone remembers them." Seriously what the hell were they thinking?
Magnum BadGuy who? any RR player curfently rhere is a bunch Irongod uses rocket racoon, thor and dr strange, use to play ironman. so he will pick it. there is a bunch of players a
that will play RR over any character.
NOW if you would rephrase it to wich marvel player that plays/mains magneto would pick RR over him
I really prefer playing Rocket Raccoon over Wolverine! Hell, There are PLENTY of X-Men Characters I either just do not care for at all, or even flat out hate (though Storm is really the only 1 I can't stand at all). Literally the only X-Men Characters (that I consider X-Men Characters) that I could give any shit about are Deadpool, Phoenix, & X-23! Literally, my only other concern for the Marvel Side is, Where the fuck is Spiderman?!
I think this is what they mean talking about, "preserving the legacy of those characters". Sadly their legacy, for them, is the tecnical aspects abaout their gameplay and special moves. They wont say it directly, but X men, fantastic four and legacy characters, aren´t what they are going for. So yeahh, fuck this game!
Time to collect the Dragon Balls, ITS THE ONLY WAY TO FIX THIS MESS!!!!
oscar garcia no it's sadly beyond his power
On the contrary, he'll give us DB FighterZ instead!!
YOUR WISH IS GRANTED!
For second wish, can we ask to stop this DBZ hype before more people getting tired? It exasperates me already.....
At 3:40 read the third paragraph
...
THATS what they mean by preserving the x men's legacy??!!
I called it. They're Disneyfying the franchise.
Naheem Quattlebaum that’s true. Disney bought marvel in 2007.
This is a joke, no x-men and not even inhumans? I picked up the game because the characters were cool. This is a hot mess. The thing that hurts the most is they know what they're doing to us.
What's next?
alan .anderson ughhh YES imagine inhumans in this game I wouldn't even be mad if the xmen didn't make it
You decide
Hopefully it's not because of some legal mess. *squints at Fox*
Malfegore_ it's not, they have all the rights to use them in games. It's just because they think they'll give free advertising for Fox movies.
I don't think Magneto had an eight way air dash in the animated series. Or in the comics, or in any other medium which his awesomeness was displayed.
Evan Saltare yeah he did, it was just called flying back then. But still it's just a function if you really think about it.
Ben Jones Like Whoa lol
u mean Function vs Capcom
Thunder Thighs your profile pic is so hilarious yet só sad
Your profile pic is amazing
yea i love this pic xD
Thunder Thighs what is x-men anyway
Fabián Cruz Ho i really Hope your joking
also, i love how you mentioned Power Stone, Max. A Power Stone or Onimusha char in MvCI would be SICK
Capcom: "No one remembers the X-men characters".
Fans: " You do know that both Deadpool and Logan made over 200 million dollars right?"
Capcom: .......
Nah. It's more like:
Disney speaking through Capcom: "No one remembers the X-Men characters".
Fans: " You do know that both Deadpool and Logan made over 200 million dollars right?"
Disney: .......
plus deadpool is getting a new animated series next year so hopefully he appears in the game in some capacity even as dlc so I think we will eventually see deadpool in the game.
Capcom: "No one remembers the X-men"
Capcom: Makes the least interesting villain in the MCU and a megaman boss that hasn't been in a console game for 3 generations their main villains
Austyn Wiles Capcom: no one remembers one of the most popular superhero teams especially in japan
Fans: "You do know that both Deadpool and Logan made over 200 million dollars right?"
Disney: "I got you, fam..." www.ticgn.com/news/disney-is-blocking-the-xmen-franchise-from-expanding/
They f*cked up mah boi, Dante.
Hey, look at the bright side - least it's not Donde Espada AKA NinjaTheory Dante.
but its his face
And? It can't be any worse than El Donde Espada, whose face is even uglier than original Dante.
P.S. I'm not disagreeing with you, I'm just saying that "it could be worse".
totally agree but the fact that they took the time to make it look like donte ticks me off
+Ashram
Rocket: Hey Dante, can the ladies come out to play?
Dmc Dante: Fuck you!
the impact of this is lessened thanks to DragonballFighterZ.
Yeah, imagine what could have been.
We could've lived in the timeline where this game is coming out in the state that it's in, and there's no hope or anything to look forward to on the horizon.
Things could've been so much worse if we were just left with the option of eating the crap Capcom was shoveling out.
Ronzeru
That game could not have been released at a better time.
Its like mouthwash right after getting a taste of that funky morning breath.
POW! Right in the kisser!
Once they said no Xmen were in the game I canceled my pre order. The demo was bad.
Callandor99 you’ve made the right decision. I was about to preorder it, until there were signs that it’s getting bad.
No X-men, no Fantastic Four, no Powerstone, no buy.
Exactly!
Darkmoone1 you know about powerstone?? nice man
One thing's for sure. MUGEN will get the roster part right. Count on it.
Darkmoone1 and no rival schools and for that reason in out
Honestly, that's like the least big deal issue to me. It's not like Avengers, Spider-Man, Guardians, and Capcom characters are shit.
Marketing, that's what they're doing. They are telling us that what they are offering is what we need, not more, not less. Unfortunately, as Max said in 6:52, they are pushing the real fans to leave the game. This game is no longer for older fans, is focused on a new market, all they want is big numbers on sales, and if that means leaving the original fans for new fans and their money, they will do it gladly 😭😢
Welcome to Disney's Marvel.
Ukaran Disney vs Crapcom
when he said that nobody barely knows who the x men are that shit cut deep. this fucking series was built with xmen. regardless of how well this game does in sales, this shit is dead to me. he fucking said forget about magneto because another character can do a similar dash. what the actual fuck.
and then they're selling disk content as dlc like panther and sigma. THEY'RE BOTH IN THE FUCKING STORY MODE WITH THEIR OWN FUCKING MAPS!! WHY ARE THEY DLC????
SagreV all about that esports money
SagreV MVC isn't something that new fans will even care that much for which is the most puzzling. If they wanted to simply appeal to new fans they should've just done a Marvel fighting game geared towards the new Marvel movie characters
It's funny that dude's repsonse that "characters don't matter" can easily be worked against itself. Like: "Why would we need Nova when we have Magneto then?"
What I don't like about the roster are, It's recycled, there aren't much enjoyment to play new characters and discover their potential. I mean ,we have seen these characters before in UMVC and the moves aren't much changed and I know the gameplay of this game is different ,but going to that road not taken will be not possible. The size of the roster is not admirable, It is less and the possibility of watching players using low tier characters will decrease, I mean who is the one who doesn't want to watch players using low tier characters and enjoy their victory. So we will keep seeing Ultron/Thanos tandem or diferrent from that, again and again and It is boring to watch that.And I agree to the variety of the characters of the two companies, Capcom has many games ,so much characters to put in the game and kinda put some landmark on the game they were in, and so does
marvel , who exclude X- men characters because of what , rights? If I were a billionaire owning a company who sells products, I will do everything to advertise it ,not only that but to preserve it, introduce it to the world. So Capcom and Marvel, please play your game right ,because it will be a game over for you.
Damn, those quotes were cringe worthy.
These devs are not clueless. They're doing what they think will make the most money, which means ignoring the people who genuinely care about the game. It's sad but you just gotta vote with you're wallet.
Disney vs Crapcom will only listen when the money stops coming in.
More like Marvel will throw Capcom off a cliff if the game fails saying 'Long live the king.' If it bombs they won't care too much.
Starsoulklr ok i call bs why because if that was true then why we 90percent the sam capcom character they are being lazy this game needs more time
TryHardHero Capcom isn't helping themselves with some of their roster choices. Both Arthur and if true Firebrand instead of another IP character like from Ace Attorney, Viewtiful Joe or Onimusha is a shame. I also don't understand why they kept Spencer's reboot design when one of his alternate costumes in three is his classic attire.
Hopefully Monster Hunter ends up being pretty super and I want to see Jedah in action.
Starsoulklr Digging their own graves. People loved MvC2 because of it's big, diverse roster. If they can't do that now, due to rights or laziness, then I'm not gonna support it. Monster hunter is exciting from the capcom side, I'll give them that, but yes, they have a huge pool of IPs to choose from and they haven't even scratched the surface. On the Marvel side, no X-Men equals no buy for me.
I'm not gonna tell people how to spend their money but why buy something you're not fully content with?
AP3 true
Don't worry guys, Son Goku will make fighting games great again.
In Goku and Vegeta we trust.. haha :D
SpScarletSpider o m g. the in your face attitude...the blonde wig....all the yelling....now it all comes together the similarities are undeniable
Tekken saved 3d, Dragonball better save 2d hyper
SpScarletSpider don't forget yumucha
Fuck capcom. fuck marvel. fuck this game
September feels too early for the release date. Capcom needs another year.
Metabii they need another 10 for this shit
I really can't help but think we're looking at another SFV incident at this rate. There's a lot of work that's needed. Lots of little touches. They can't afford to rush it.
It's like SFV but, unlike with SFV, there's genuine signs here that something potentially bad is coming and everyone's slow-bracing for impact!
watch as they release MvCI and a few months later they release ULTIMATE MvCI Kappa YOU GOTTA BUY THE GAME TWICE YAKNOWATIMEAN?
+rafadesenhista
That would ironically be like a great move because then the DB FighterZ hype would have like died down a bit and they'd have a better chance to sell to people. And all the people who bought FighterZ over MvCI would be like restocked a bit so they'll be able to like get around to that better.
I've already given up on this game after Dragon Ball Fighterz was announced. It's a shame what both Marvel and Capcom have become ever since MvC3
Kahnane same
I so agree with you. I was about to buy infinite until they’ve wrecked everything. Look at dbfz, they’re on fire and did well.
Their PR is really bad for this game.
So i guess this game is only for hardcore competitive players? They're the only people who actually see characters as "functions."
I see it as the opposite: they made it overly accessible. Max said that some of the combos felt easier and more meant for new players. Also, the fact that they're trying to pretend that only the MCU is what matters means that they're aiming at people who just came into marvel with the films. No care for the people who have played the game for years or have read the comics for years.
413X13 I played the demo, the gameplay is fine, it's everything else. I mean the loading times are Sonic 06 levels of bad!!!
I heard about that. certain pros are love a character and is good at that character can make that specific character a top tier if it proves to be fruitful.
Tekken 7, Injustice 2, Dragon Ball FighterZ... Why even bother with this lackluster expansion pack?
You forgot the best one out of all those; Guilty Gear Rev 2.
SPPSports maybe because some people appreciate Capcom games? and hope for something good?
An expansion pack ADDS content, not minimize it.
I don't read replies Maybe not the best. But Guilty Gear definitely *needs* to be listed!
Expansion? There is like one new character.
Venom! Give me Venom! He was my favorite from MvC2 and I've been patiently waiting for 6 years to play him again.
Rick Jones He's DLC dude.
from the future: oh boy hope you like the voice acting
Venoms in. But his voice dub is disgusting.
The reason why I won't get it is because it's represents laziness at its finest. Sure, it plays good, but that can't be the sole thing going for it. It looks pretty bad in comparison to past fighters, its roster is so puny, the story mode seems to be really awful and awkward like a fanfiction, and represents bad business practice with day one dlc, or more specifically, on disc dlc. It feels like a game that needs far more time to be developed and feels really rushed.
Brian. Jr Montoya at least fan fiction has creativity!
Lucille Lam you know, you're right, I've actually read fan fiction better than what was given to me from the demo, and that makes me feel fucking sad.
"But wait ! We learned from SFV, from our past mistakes !!"
Isn't everything FanFiction nowadays? Don't people who work in writing department of almost anything actual fans of the property?
FanFiction isn't bad, it just how you use the characters and settings you love. Look at Project X Zone and Kingdom Hearts, their story is basically fanfiction but well done enough to sell well and overall be enjoyable.
It looks specially bad thanks to Injustice 2 and Tekken 7 story mode and stuff.
the developers didnt give a shit about the game or characters
Why does Capcom like, hate their fans?
Haku Yuki
That doesn't explain the shity Capcom side.
Robby Cavanaugh because they know shills and enablers will eat their shit directly from their anus with a huge grin.
To justify future dlc at saying that they listen to us, but we get just raped on the wallet and cheated instead
Haku Yuki i love seeing crapcom shills and enablers get triggered because no one wants to keep with crapcoms bullshit
At least the Capcom side is trying to some extent. They have two interesting choices on Capcom's side, but the Marvel side has almost nothing at the moment.
Just buy Tekken 7 again
I'm never gonna see my cyclops in a mvc game ever again 😢😢
johnny vo I'm gonna fucking cry dude smh I miss Cyclops
johnny vo Optic Flash!!!
i miss him too. he was my go to over cap because i liked his projectiles better.
Come and get me!
Optic blast!
Jesus Christ!
I miss his sounds so much.
No Omega Red, Blackheart, Sabertooth or Juggernaut for me I guess :[
Help us Bandai-Namco, you're our only hope!
Ok, how can capcom even remotely be this dense. When Sf didnt have Ryu and ken, people outraged. Why, when MvC doesnt have xmen, would it be any different. Thats like having injustice 3 not have batman or superman and instead have Deadman bc some justice league dark movie came out in the future and its all the rage. This is dumb as hell
noah10cool1 Blame Marvel for no X-Men, not Capcom.
this time its not capcom fault (for more weird that sounds), its marvel`s fault bc they want to push their shitty cinematic universe in the game, and that means no x-men because fox owns the rights.
Natalia Casados u r da best thing on da internet rite now 👍🏾
noah10cool1 it more Disney fault they are not allowing capcom to put the x men in because they are trying there best to make x men no longer relevant the sad thing is it working
Natalia Casados ...and FOX brought the movie rights fair and square. Fun Fact: the reason why Marvel had to sell the movie rights is they went bankrupt in the mid-late 90's because they help cause the comic book crash of the mid90's
Some people may not remember the X-Men characters, but they do know the guardians of the galaxy characters, you know what I mean? Up until they released that movie I didn't even know what a guardian of the galaxy was, then someone explained it to me and I thought he was fucking with me. According to the interview I guess I just don't remember most of my childhood, X who?
MvCI has no excuse. Even with the Xmen cut out, marvel could have easily compensated in new characters from various comics, but they decided to port the majority of mvc3 with that unholy abomination mobile GRAFFIX paint job. It's like they made a game that could function on the vita and forgot that nobody plays it.
Shang Chi and Hayate
well capcom is the one making the game so they were the ones who got to chose the characters for the roster so while marvel just recommend characters for capcom so they are mostly to blame for the roster.
Ira Ford I very much dobut that Marvel and Disney had no say in the game.
the avengers vs capcom
PC Best Mods yeah. Without xmens this isn’t a MvC game at all.
E105_Alpha Correct. It’s an MCU advertisement.
Honestly it made me actually feel bad when I saw the function comment, In MVC3 I picked Spider-man as a main and failed at using him for a long time but always went back to him because i have always loved the character. If they had Spencer play exactly like spiderman I would have never gravitated towards him. The notion that X-Men characters are not popular or that Marvel is trying to get rid of them is absurd to me, they have had a ton of ongoing series for the last few years that have been amazing to read. I feel like with a lot of these changes characters like young Cyclops or Iceman would be really cool to see return. Give us Ms.Marvel who is just nuts popular since she has been created. I would play those characters if they were low tier just on the fact that they are in the game and would be fun to use them. Not sure what Capcom is doing but it feels like they are letting other factors decide what goes into the roster. We got Rocket and Arthur back from MVC3? Oh yeah they were crazy popular right there must have been tons of marvel players asking for them back... c'mon man. I want to see this game do good, and I love the way the game plays so far with the expanded creativity of combos. But dont make me pick up Spencer because he is kind of spider-man lol, or black panther because he is kind of wolverine. That's that bullshit Capcom
Save us Goku!
Injustice 2 and Tekken 7 though. 3/4 for fighting games aint bad.
Mundaney goku always saves us. he wont dissapoint
ake you money away from capcom and give it to goku's spirit bomb to make a point.
Mundaney lift up our hands. give him our energy.
Ron -Kun how can you hate a game if you have not played it yet? typical
If they don't want to promote the X-Men characters which are better than the MCU characters. Then why not add Daredevil, Luke Cage, Jessica Jones,Punisher or blade instead.
And considering that Luke Cage and Blade are mentioned in Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom 3...that really is a must.
James Jones Daredevil.....
I'd add Vision. He'd be a cool character as well.
Sire Kumasutra but daredevil doesn't work with vision.
Tre Massicotte that was clever
If there was not FighterZ, I'd be very sad with just MvCi.
Injustice.
Azure Saiyan Tekken 7 and Dissidia Final Fantasy.
Ukaran Can't stand the mortal kombat style of fighting game. It looks so nice but then seeing the gameplay makes it look a bit silly. Just my opinion.
Max, you know for damn sure those characters aren't coming. It's clear their hands are tied and there is no way they can bring in anything beside what they own in the MCU.
Regardless the game still looks like it was produced by an indie studio and has some of the worst art design, character models, and voice acting in the genre.
Even if they can't use the X-Men or F4 characters for rights reasons (Which they can because Fox only has the movie rights and Marvel still has merchandise rights), that doesn't excuse this tiny roster. There's dozens of characters Marvel still has the rights to use that could compensate for the X-Men and such, but instead they're just going with the basic, stock characters that everybody knew already was gonna be in the game.
Shollos - Blame Disney for this.
Mervel wants back the Xmen characters from Fox but Fox ain't playing into Marvels hand so Marvel is trying to make the XMen irrelevant so that people forget about XMen and the Fox movies bomb.
Can't really blame, it's what needs to be done to get back their property. No reason to give free promotion.
I dunno about them coming, but they sure as hell will try to make money off it later down the line if they do come.
Shollos I think the issue not that they arent included, so much as the producers refuse to say anything about it.
Why couldn't the story mode just be Marvel vs Capcom
GOKU WILL SAVE US!
Always
Tronogy He literally will.
Everyone! Give goku your energy!
i am patiently waiting for DBZ fans to be dissapointed in the lack of characters in that game as well
Tronogy haha
Max for the love of everything fun about fighting games and the future of this franchise , DO NOT BUY, PLAY, or PROMOTE this game. WE NEED TO SEND CAPCOM A MESSAGE.
hold my beer.
Gaminggod1997 ok.
do they have a twitter?
Marvel needs this message as well.
You'd think they'd have gotten the message with SFV's absolutely shit sales. Guess they wanna see just how bankrupt they can get.
I hate how they're not going to add X-Men characters even though ALL THE MOBILE GAMES HAVE THE FRIGGEN X-MEN
THE X-MEN ARE ARGUABLY THE HIGHLIGHT OF THE MvC SERIES
GET YOUR ASSES TOGETHER
_THESE CHARACTERS ARE NOT "MODES." THEY. ARE. YOUR. LEGACY._
Jake I mean I was never a fan of the xmen, I'm more disappointed in the lack of Spider-Man characters and cap on characters like Phoenix Wright and Veutiful Joe
The fact that those games that are even more owned by Marvel have xmen baffles me why this game does not have them. I want Gambit, Magneto, Wolverine, Sentinel, Rouge, Psylocke. Man I would even take now stereotypically gay iceman just someone from the xmen to show they even kinda care.
I play Marvel Heroes and all the marvel characters are there.
Jake that's true. the Jim Lee comics were pretty much the inspiration for making those Marvel-Capcom games back in the 90s.
Gabo LongQua What Max is disscussing is fighting games. Marvel Heroes omega isn't a fighting game it's Role play
so they're apparently gonna have Gamora and Rocket/Groot.. but no Starlord? Am I the only one who would of preferred Starlord over the others?
Nope. I even wanted him to be voiced by Chris Pratt in the game.
My biggest gripe with how MVC:I is I feel that it is being fully catered not to MvC fans, but more towards selling the new Marvel Universe and whatever movies are or will be out. There's always been this tone of "over the top wacky bullshit". This just feels like the game is taking itself too serious and doesn't want to "tarnish" whatever they are trying to sell.
It's not even catered to new Marvel comics. No Spider-Gwen,Miles Morales,Iron Heart,Hydra Cap,Kamala Khan,Jane Foster,or any of that. They're catering to the movie watchers
You hit the nail on the head.
To me its simple: the roster SUCKS! We were expecting a lot of new characters, there are many, MANY characters from dozens of different Capcom games that people have been asking for since the first MVC. And what do they do? They recycle the MVC3 roster and bring back characters like Arthur and Spencer?? Nobody wanted them in 3 to begin with! They are only adding like 5-6 new characters and will obviously sell new ones as DLC, wich kinda gives me a SFxTK feeling. And there goes my chance to see some Power Stone, Red Earth, Rival Schools, Cyberbots characters, a RE other than Chris and more Darkstalkers characters other than Morrigan (i know Jedah is rumored but it'd take J Talbain, Demitri, Donovan or even BB Hood over him any day). And thats for Capcom, I wont even talk about Marvel or i'll drown in a sea o salt!
Oi, I can at least accept Arthur - the dude's at risk of getting forgotten about if Capcom doesn't have him in.
That said, most of Capcom's roster seems to be yanked right out of Project X Zone (with exception of, as you said, Spencer); heck, X being in this game seems like hollow pandering at best.
moonfish Jon Talbain being in this game would be a rare miracle, while he may be loved in the West, sadly the Japanese seem to have cold feet for him and only want him to be relegated to cameos
+moonfish I actually like the fact that Arthur is in, firebrand is the on that I am curious why they chose him.
Also spencer came back because of combofeind, literally. Not even joking combofiend brought back spencer
Out of all the RE characters they could've thrown around I most expected Wesker. Y'know...cause he's supernaturally powerful and has a great skill set for a fighting game.
I agreed with all of this except the Jedah thing, I am excited that he may be appear, however I do agree about how more darkstalkers characters should appear.
P.S. Also where in the hell is Felicia! SJW censorship strikes again I guess :(
at this rate Fox & Capcom should come together & make
X-men Vs Street Fighter 2
Naughty Juri fox doesn't have rights to do that. They only have rights for movies, marvel has rights for everything else
Millicente which is frightening because of the roster so far on this game and based on these producers comments they have no clue of what they are doing. We should have it all
"This game isn't for me anymore"
