CloseITSSS MARRRVEEL BABYYY
Recently released fighting game that everyone loves to hate. If you have not
purchased this video game and enjoy entertaining fighting games you're missing out. 20 American dollars, if you bought the previous game you can sell it for around 10 and you're only paying 10 dollars.
Not only are there 8 new stages, 12 new characters, and the ability to X-factor(in mid air as a defensive option) they dumbed the fighting game down GREATLY. In MVC3 you could take someone from 100 to 0 with a well placed, well timed /w assist combo/super.
The days of fearing the literally endless Tron and Dante combos are over to appeal to the casuals(bads). Basically in MVC3 you were either beast or bad. Along with the OTG fix and the damage scaling fix, hp has been scaled down as well but it evens out because you can't take someone from 100 to 0 % anymore.
My Experience
Look, I've been a fan from day one. The biggest issue floating around this game is MVC3 was in fact, an earlier(unfinished)version of UMV3, so people are upset they paid 60 dollars for half a game. Fair enough, but it is still a fun experience. Did I feel like they gamed my money? No. Because I had fun with both games. The only people who have an issue with this are human beings who take video games too seriously.
You can now go into a lobby and watch games in progress through spectator mode, Heroes and Heralds mode will be available as free dlc later as a fun card collection game to add weird and fun stats like infinite supers/super armor/etc during gameplay.
People are upset that the roster does not include Mega Man. Capcom is slowly phasing out MM with the creator gone. Accept it. Capcom has thrown the fans a bone and added a DLC costume that looks exactly like X for Zero.
I'll tell you about my experiences with the new characters so far.
Hawkeye: If you like simple zoning he is very very good. I personally don't like him that much because Visuals are important to me and to be honest I'm not a very big Marvel fan
Phoenix Wright: A very-VERY technical character, PW is an incredibly fun character to play, ain't gunna lie. The problem is that his skillcap is very high otherwise high tier characters like Wesker will eat you up. But man, when you win with PW online, you're king.
Strider: Plays exactly like MVC2, very low health but ridiculous ability to chain combos. Very technical character. I don't play him much because his health is very low, but he has one of the best assists in the game along with his x-factor level 3 super.
Frank West: Along with PW, Frank is really fun and a lot easier to use than PW. He's less technical but they both have a similar game mechanic where you have to level up to use his more powerful moves. I have a theory that FW will end up being high tier, people are just still getting used to the new characters.
Doctor Strange: I haven't used him much, but he is a very good zoner, before release they thought he would be very very good, but I don't see many people play him online.
Ghost Rider: Haven't played him but he's used as a zoning character. I haven't played good GR players yet. He is very zone heavy so once you get in he's gone.
Iron Fist: Technical character and hard to use but does incredible damage. He has stances that give him different perks: meter build, defense, str, etc. Good players will take your life meter down very quickly, but he is not very mobile.
Nova: Pretty cheap character with low health. I played him a few times but I got bored because his damage output is ridiculous and his combos are derp friendly. You can take someones health down very quickly with him with very little effort. Pretty popular online.
Rocket Raccoon: Great zoner, has the lowest health in the game. People do not like RR very much because he's a very very technical zoner. I have a lot of fun with him if i'm playing with friends, but if you want to beat someone I wouldn't suggest him.
Firebrand: A really decent Trish character. He's actually a really great character but I don't play him much. His damage is really really low, but he can combo for ages much like Zero.
Nemesis: Before UMVC3 was released people through Nem wouldn't be that good. He ended up because really REALLY amazing. You can do some very very good mix ups with Nem, and has great command grabs. His solo combos are incredibly damaging and he feels like a more mobile hulk.
Vergil: One of the most played characters you see in online from the new roster. He's one of those characters who you can play "badly" and still deliver ridiculous results and if you play him well you just destroy people.
Overall it's a really fun game. You don't have to be exceptionally amazing in order to beat someone or have a good time. Yes there are people out there who will blow you up. Get over it. A bunch of my friends also host a weekly online lobby for casuals, infact there are a lot of great lobbies hosted. I can't speak for the PS3 community though.
If I didn't think this game was fun or worth your time I wouldn't have wrote all of this. If you have any questions I'll be glad to answer them. I hope at least a few of you who enjoy fighting games picks this up, I know UPRC and MOG like fighting games.
MOG I think you should buy this...

Whoa...I thought 'you' died, a little while back, TFT. Good to hear from you, bud. Good to hear from you.
(You work for Capcom or Marvel now, right?)

I want to pick ot up when I get a fair chance to consistently have time to play it. The changes sound fun.
I thought that Marvel vs Capcom 2 was actually semi-rare and would fetch a decent price if you sold it used (at least, more than $10)
I sold my copy of MvC3. The play-style of the series just doesn't seem to be my cup of tea, and this is a cup of tea I tried on many, many different occasions.
For me, U/MvC3 will always be a game that's more fun to look at than to play.

Just Play SF 33 online or MvC2. No fighting game is going to be better than the triple Triad (MvC2, SF 33 and Melee)

I actually sold my Marvel 2 for like 100 bucks on Ebay. It is a pretty rare game.

Like I said, they slowed down the pacing a lot. It's easier to pick up and play. But yeah, I mean, it is fun to just kick back go into a lobby and watch people in spec mode.

Street Fighter Third Strike
My brother bought this and said it was very good. I was still riding off the MVC3 high and I popped it in. It's really slow and it feels like you have absolutely no control. That's the problem with MVC3 once you get hooked on the freedom it is hard to play fighting games that have less control.

Once you get over the jet lag from MVC3 (understandably) you'll find that it's an excellent game. When it comes to strategy, technicality, pick up and playability, high level play, and well, being fun, 3rd Strike is hailed by a lot of people as being the best fighting game, period. Even if you don't think so, it's still very, very fun. It's depth is incredible. It's so fun to play against a friend and seeing how your techniques differ, even with the same character.

Yeah, I will agree with you that I have heard it's an excellent fighting game. Justin Wong plays it and floats back and forth to UMVC3. I dunno man, MVC3 has too many variables to not love it.
It's just neat to play as Jill or Strider. Like, yeah, playing Sakura or Dan is cool I guess. What is neat about UMVC3 is, and I have played a lot of fighting games in my lifespan, is when you play other people online and they pick a certain team, you start to see these weird strategies that they come up with based on their team and assist, and you're always seeing something new from different people. When you see this during a match it's just really really fun watching it or trying to come up with a way to get around it.
Some people will build a team around one character. Other people will save a character at the end. There will be a team that specifically builds meter to constantly burn supers. There will be a keep away team, there will be a zoning team.
And I think that's what makes it cool, when you start a match online you can't expect "jump kick" and "fireball" so you're constantly guessing. If there is one fighting game where you will see ridiculous things happen it is UMVC3.
Yes, and I totally agree on the mixing and matching type strategies that come with it. Apparently techniques based on region as well, some of my coworkers/shipmates who also play fighting games tell me there are stuff you'd never see here when they went to Japan and played in the arcades there. Thanks to online play nowadays we can expect even more stuff from all over the world.
When I settle into one spot that has decent internet connection I hope to play you sometime!

I really need to play this more, but I can never find games to hop into unless I want to play in a lobby with several people... which I don't want to do (I hate waiting). I guess this could be the fault of the game not selling well.
Hopefully there will be some awesome UMvC3 action going on at my place New Years Eve. My glass cannon team (Strider/Phoenix/Deadpool) needs more practice!
... That's right. I DON'T use Phoenix for DP. I am one of those brave bastards.
