Marvel vs Capcom 3

[valentinesdead?]

I have the MadCatz Fighting Stick TE for 360 and PS3, have to say its the best Stick i've ever used

The SFIV TE stick is awesome.

Yea, that's the vibe I got from researching about the Hori and the TE sticks. It wasn't an easy choice to decide because I really couldn't find any real negative comments about them, except for some very slight ones with the TE, so I just said to hell with it and bought the Hori. Hey, it's Japanese made--it must be good! But yeah, it seemed like a virtual tie between the two.

PS3 version is so laggy for me and others that it's not even worth playing online unless you want to shit your pants purely out of frustration.

That's kinda weird, since I've had no issues except tonight with Jill's Boob(simply because he was suffering bad weather and for some reason that always screws with his connection). My online play experience has been pretty silky smooth actually. Honestly, it's probably the best I've ever seen for any online fighting game. True, the ranked matches, as noted above are apparently causing a ton of issues(haven't tried them myself) for whatever cheap ass reasons Capcom has. But overall, it's extremely hard to tell the difference in an actual match between that and an actual local game(except when it's actually lagging of course).

But in general, I gotta say I really, really love this game. You know it's so totally fun when you've spent up to 9-10 hours in offline mode just simply in the training and missions(no arcade mode for me yet). It's very cool to try to do combos and try to be creative with the chemistry between each of your teams members. My team of Dante, Ryu, and Jean Grey go pretty well together. I decided to swap out Wesker for the time being(I'll get back to him later). Jean Grey was technically going to be my lead until I realized how easily she takes damage. A skilled player could probably take Jean out in 5-10 seconds in the right situation, but she can do loads of damage if you know how to use her just right.

Dante's probably my favorite fighter so far due to his absolute diversity of moveset and range. He's basically the jack of all trades in the game. He can adapt to pretty much any situation. And last but not least good ole Ryu, who, can drain your opponents health bar extremely quick in a combo air juggle combination.

*Sigh* So much to do, so much to learn.

I've got to agree the game is great, and a true sequel to the Marvel vs Capcom series in the highest regard. I'm still trying to decide on my third party member but I got Dante and Spencer on a firm hold. I still need to find that right person for me. Offline mode is great. But before I really invest into the game further, I'm waiting for next week when I get paid (already £500 out of my 1,600 salrary is going to go straight away out of my acount ) before I purchase my fighting stick. Game doesn't feel right otherwise. It'll be a great investment though, with those countless hours spent online/offline with friends <3

Jill DLC gameplay in RE5, looks somewhat of a weak/speed character and plays nothing like her MVC2 version, seems to have the Villain persona similar to RE5 also.

Settled on a team of X-23, Spiderman and Wolverine for now, although Swap out Wolverine for Phoenix when needbe.

Sadly Sentinel is completely OP and Woops me everytime I play against him though.

I was a bit hesistant about buying this, but am seriously glad I did. I sat up last night with a friend and probably played six straight hours. We both suck, so it's way better than playing against anyone online where it would be instant death for me.

I haven't really settled on a team yet, but Wesker, Dante, and Deadpool seem to be the characters I go with the most. I notice what I seem to go for is entirely speed; I can't really even use Chris because he's just too slow moving for me.

I did play against a few online people, and one thing that I simply cannot stand is someone who uses the same move, over...And over...AND OVER! I played against a Dr. Doom who endlessly used 'Molecular Shield.' Is this really any fun in beating another player? I hate those who want those cheap-shot victories.

I really had high hopes for Phoenix too, but I find her defenses to be way too low. It was like two hits from some of the stronger characters killed her. Meh.

Definitely fun and addictive likes its predecessor!

lololol, really?

Jill looks pretty fun.

But I'm having a hard time getting into matches. And when I do, it seems to be people spamming weskers teleports then using his hyper repeatedly. And then using magnete and spamming his little blast move.

Played with a friend who spammed spencer's scorpion rip off "get over here"

[Jill4EverSTARS]

From the looks of Jill she'd be great for my team because I'm a speed/combo person her gun special though looks pretty useless

She looks extremely weak in damage, I'm using X-23 as point character right now and was planning to swap her for Jill maybe. I hope when she gets patched her damage is buffed, that machine gun hyper was complete ass.

Does anyone here know how to pull off a team aerial combo? It still has me stymied.

[Beanovsky Durst]

Use the SP (pop up) button and any direction while doing an air combo... That should do the trick.

Randomly jumped online for a player match earlier today, and thoroughly got my shit stuffed violently up my asshole by some guy who was "7th Lord," whatever that means. I used Deadpool/Akuma/Dante and he had Super Skrull/Dormammu/Dr. Doom and nearly had a flawless victory on me until I got him with a 'Trigger Happy' near the end of the match and did minimal damage. I checked his license and he has over 50 wins and single digit losses in ranked matches, and used the same team over 90% of the time.

This is why I don't get fighting games.

[Jill4EverSTARS]

Yea I know what you mean the top Guy had around 400 wins after the first day fighting games aren't sit back and have fun games for me I love the games but don't want to spend my time studying frame data like others

[GuardhouseMusic]

Player matches usually involve people with a more manageable amount of skill for folks like us who can't be arsed to train day in and day out. When you match up with someone closer to your level the bouts are a lot more exhilarating, which is why I DO get fighting games.

Thanks a bunch for the answer BD, much appreciated!

Heh, I bought the BradyGames guide when I picked up my copy, thinking it was gonna be a tell all book of what to use when and all that. Open it up and it's 400 pages of shit talking about invulnerable frames and other things like that. It gives breakdowns on moves, damage for said moves and I stopped and thought "I have zero clue what the fuck this all means."

I like games and playing them and knowing a lot of information but damn, I don't need frame by frame analysis on when I can stick x-23's pig stickers through so and so ultra super hyper bunghole attack.

[Vector]

It's pretty hard to have fun with this game when all anyone does is spam unblockable bounce-to-air combos with Dante, using the SAME EXACT FUCKING TEAMS over and over again. I try my best not to rage but it's pretty hard when someone does the same shit over and over again and I can't block them, now matter how hard I try to sit at the end of the screen when I know it's coming. I don't get it.
