Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 Announced! (15th of November just got worse)

[Vito]

You make it sound like its a bad thing. How many of you bought a second release of a Capcom game.... be honest.

And this game has a lot of new content.

-12 new characters.
-8 new Stages.
-Playable Galactus mode.
-Heroes and Heralds mode.
-Infinite hyper mode.
-Spectator mode.
-Rebalancing and many characters have new moves.
-New online features.

And we can still get more stuff.

Besides 40 bucks is not really a lot of money.

[Mr. Spencer]

Spectator mode should have been in the original release and since MvC3 is no different to UMvC3 then it's clear that there was no reason why it wasn't. Playable Galactus is pointless, I'm also not liking the retarded card collection idea which sounds more like the kind of garbage you might find in the lacklustre Budokai games. Infinite hyper mode? That's just called the practice mode.

Yes, $40 is not a lot of money for you maybe but for me they'll try and charge full price. Most likely in excess of £35, but the thing is it's not about the amount, it's irrelevant. The point is, they're re-releasing the same product a mere six months after the release of the original game, effectively rendering the original worthless. Why not release the character rebalances as patches, along with the Spectator Mode? Why not offer the new characters and stages as DLC, so you can pick and choose what character(s) you like the most and add them to your game?

And before you add the whole 'it's cheaper to get them all on disc instead of seperately' arguement, why would you even bother with shitty characters? Just buy Nemesis, Vergil and Phoenix Wright and that's all you really need. They're selling those characters as opposed to a new game, and people will shell out the money because it's a business model that works. We'll keep paying.

I won't be however, I refuse to line Capcom's coffers any further. If I do get the game, it would be preowned.

As for rebuying the same game? I picked up RE4 on the PC for 99p, which is nothing. I've bought coffees that cost more than that did. I also downloaded RE4 HD via game sharing with a friend of mine, which I got for free though even then I STILL feel ripped off and I feel sorry for those poor bastards who shelled out sixteen quid for that hogwash. I've actually never really bought the same game twice, as more often than not I waited for the inevitable expanded edition before I made a purchase. Which I did with Super Street Fighter IV. But Arcade Edition? Sorry, Capcom. Not happening. The one mistake I made regarding Capcom products was buying Bionic Commando Rearmed 2, which pales in comparison to the original and simply serves to hammer a nail into the coffin of a series that was barely out of its revival chamber.

So you worked on the game? how was it?

Playable Galactus is pointless, I'm also not liking the retarded card collection idea which sounds more like the kind of garbage you might find in the lacklustre Budokai games.

One big fat OPINION. Not gonna bother.

Wait...UMvC3 is already out? Didnt knew it came out in August.

So when UMvC3 releases all copies of original MvC3 will just vanish?

Why not release the character rebalances as patches, along with the Spectator Mode? Why not offer the new characters and stages as DLC, so you can pick and choose what character(s) you like the most and add them to your game?

This is the only point i kinda of agree, it would have been nice to give players the option but since i hate DLC i dont care, glad its on disk.

I won't be however, I refuse to line Capcom's coffers any further. If I do get the game, it would be preowned.

I hope you do.

I find hard to belive you NEVER bought a second version of a game, EVER.

[Mr. Spencer]

I like how almost all of your rebuttals to my points were ad hominem arguements.

MvC3 might as well vanish as it's not worth anything anymore, it's obsolete.

UMvC3 is no different to MvC3, all they've done is rebalance some of the characters and add a new HUD, but other than that it's the exact same game with a couple of extra characters. Characters that could have been added as DLC.

I'll just leave this here.

[Darkmoon]

It would have been nice if they'd actually offered it as DLC...as they claimed they were going to, but the Tsunami that hit Japan apparently meant they could no longer make this DLC...no, I'm not quite sure how that makes sense either.

[Mr. Spencer]

It was the perfect excuse they needed. Typical of Capcom to turn a tragic disaster into an opportunity.

I cant belive you watch that idiot.

He was wrong about many things.

[Mr. Spencer]

[Vito]

[Beanovsky Durst]

Seriously, it's a fighting game From Capcom. If you didn't see this coming then you know nothing about their fighting games history (SFII anyone?); that's why I didn't buy MvC3. I knew this was going to happen, as it was with Street Fighter IV, and it's going to happen with Street Fighter x Tekken.

[Dracarys]

Why not release the character rebalances as patches, along with the Spectator Mode? Why not offer the new characters and stages as DLC, so you can pick and choose what character(s) you like the most and add them to your game?

.....

...but SSFIV offered AE content as DLC.

It isn't that they couldn't, is that the period Capcoms believes the time frame that DLC sells best at for fighters wouldn't be met.

[Mr. Spencer]

...but SSFIV offered AE content as DLC.

Fair enough, but you could have said that without the unnecessary melodramatic dots preceding it.

[Dracarys]

Full list of changes, Jill somehow got nerfed even though she was so useless compared to similar characters that nobody ever used her, makes perfect sense.

Wrong, she was a really good character that nobody bothered (Maybe because she was DLC?) learning how to properly and effectively use.

They nerfed all that was extremely good about her in order to further balance the game, even though most people didn't even bother with her in the first place.

Now that she'll be fully featured in UMVC3 people will pay more attention to her.
