Subject: Re:Marvel Vs Capcom 3! 1/27 Sentinel and Hsien Ko (And Galaticus) Last characters?
6 costumes for $5 seems kinda iffy. Would rather see at least 12
But anyways after 2 days I must say I pick up pretty fast. Its simple once you figure out that everything is a variant of quarter forward, quarter back, or some zigzag
^ You should have seen Castlevania: Harmony of Despair. 400 points for one stage, 240 points for one extra character, and 320 points for 5 songs. And towards the beginning, you couldn't even play if you didn't have the stages, as you would get booted out of every lobby.

I've never feared Death or Dying. I've only feared never Trying.
I'm enjoying teams with Chris Redfield, Sentinel (who i used in the last game), Ryu, Deadpool, Super skrull, Felicia, and wolverine. I like the contrast between the distance and in your face styles.

Do you remember that time that thing happened?
This is a bad thread and you should all feel bad
I'm using Deadpool and Dante a lot. Altough as far as I understand it, Dante is a bit overpowered. But since I'm not really good at the game I hope it evens out.
What I really enjoy though are the little touches, like characters who are close friends calling each other by their first names, like Cap and Iron Man or Wolverine and X-23.
Hmm having doubts on Dante now. End up keep using his moves that take too long and not the ones I want (stop shooting in the air, STOP SHOOTING ). Maybe I'll switch him for chris who is hilarious against people who cant jump or block well or maybe akuma
Haha I used to but got tired of other sent spammers. Had a really good match with a sent spammer. He may have taken out Doom but Super Skrull rolled under his beam and tenderized the heck out of him. x2 supers later and sentinel is gone. Cakewalk after that since most spammers have no idea how to fight without Sentinel!
I got raged quit by a Sent Spammer. Ammy can just duck under his beams, and I did a hell of a combo, followed by a team aerial combo - then the guy quit.
Yea, heard a lot of stories of rage quiting sent spammers after even the most mediocre of comboing. They're going to get paired up with other rage quitters!
Yeah.
I have yet to rage quit. However, I got the update when I was getting my ass kicked, and it told me off.
I was all "the heck, you just made me update and kicked me out of my game D<"
I believe I've read somewhere a few months back that, if you quit a game prematurly too often, you will be set to fight against other quitters as well.

I normally don't play fighting games, but I found this one particularly good. Although I also consider Soul Calibur good and some think poorly upon it in favor of Guilty Gear, etc.
I would have to say that my mains are Deadpool, Chris, and Viewtiful Joe. Chris is range of course, Deadpool is a nice mixed bag, and Viewtiful Joe manages to beat Thor and the Hulk for some reason.
I cannot for the life of me beat Super Skrull though, spamming doesn't work and the air combos are hard to start off against him for some reason.

I can beat him in arcade, but not when a real person is using him. They like to use that 'tenderizer' move and for some reason seem to be faster than Deadpool.
I will admit that I can't beat Galactus on Normal mode though, I get him to a slim amount of life and then he just ends me.

Ah, I sometimes use skrull in arcade. He is pretty much Chun Li with extra reach so its easy to spam tenderizer. Best strategy is to somehow get him when hes in the middle of it and cant react.
Big G at first seems hard but in the end hes predictable, I use to have all sorts of trouble but these days I find he is one of the easiest fights. keep up the blocking and fit in as much damage in between. The things you have to watch out for are his grab (you have to super jump to avoid or if you get caught you can break out) and his laser supers (the background one he has has a buttload of chip damage and if you dont block its pretty much instant kill). when you run out of team members, xfactor is your friend. can really knock his teeth out, it also helps during his instant kill energy ball attack which when broken, stuns him for a good while.

It seems that he uses his insta-kill more often in easy mode too. I don't do too many fighting games so I'm trying to learn how to do quarter turns, etc with the analogue. I thinks its a good thing that the hyper combos have the same basic pattern though. That way it seems like you're trying to adjust to the character's movements and speed instead of some control pattern.
