Marvel Vs. Capcom: Infinite Characters and Stages Roster Discussion Thread

Quick impressions.

The gameplay in the Story demo was fun, but since it was limited and the story sequences looked so rough, I was fairly depressed at the end of last night's stream. Really wasn't feeling the game.

The 1v1 demo's visuals (at least on the E3 TV's) do look better. This is not the case for the character model/faces. They still look very rough outside of Cpt Marvel/Strider and a couple others who look good. The lighting and overall visuals appear to be more refined in the 1v1 build, especially seeing Thanos/Iron Man or shiny ass characters on that desert stage looked great. The hitsparks also look pretty awesome and different than marvel 3, some cool particles. The game itself, when finally playing against humans, is legit fun. The system allows for some crazy shit, and defense will be tough as you'll be getting opened up constantly via the tag system (take this as a compliment or otherwise). The game really shows it's scars after the match is over, or during cinematic supers when it dives into a close shot of a character model and face, and you're reminded how rough they look.

They're very lucky the game is fun as hell, at least this early on, because the artstyle and many other artistic choices are very questionable. This is almost a repeat situation of KOF14. Fun as hell gameplay, weak character models/lighting at release.
Good shit Max. Thanks.

Bionic Arm being as good as MvC3 would be super annoying with the free flowing tag system. Can't imagine the amount of free mixups Bionic Arm + Tag would give per match.

Bionic Arm is a single hit so it wouldn't be good for tag out mix-ups at all. Not like something that stays active forever like Dante's Million Dollars.

i mean, there's a lot of shit that gives free mixups anyways though
any projectile confirmed into super is gonna be free mixups
if shadow servant is still in the game, that's the same shit

i just saw that leak list at https://imgur.com/a/8zJ2V#LeVyXgc which looks extremely real given the date and formatting of certain details that no sane person would know (xgardien misspelling being similar to other capcom games misspellings in files, strider specifically being mentioned as "hiryu" like all of marvel 3's files which never mention him as 'strider') and there' s still no wesker in it despite the rest of the returning cast members

come on capcom what the fuuuuck

So theres 38 characters there. Since it has Sigma and Panther we assume all 6 dlc from the season pass are there, that leaves 32. Thats more than the list Ryce gave us.

Also who the hell are Pluto Grand Master and Dahren Mohran?

36/38 fits w/ S1 DLC. Base of 30/32 + 6 more.

And also, assuming those files are real, it could just mean story mode models, like Death for example, or that MH monster just being a special boss or something.

oh yeah "PlutoGrandMaster" is also another super capcom-file-naming thing, haha.

seriously tho why isn't everyone's favorite pro-skateboarder back

(i assume the reason is because his entire game is based around smooth ground movement and cr.m which doesnt really translate well to any button he would have?? idk)

Comparing to the Ryce leak, switch Zero for Antman, and add Haggar, Dorm, Ghost Rider.

Assuming Venom and Winter Soldier are DLC, and 2 other Capcom characters so prob that Strider boss and..err...someone else.

Venom can't be DLC, he's not new.

Jedah might be part of the DLC, aren't a lot of options Capcom side.

Venom's a veteran, so he may be Day 1. And Ghost Rider could be DLC if they go with Robbie Reyes (like the MCU). If they port over Johnny Blaze, then he'll likely be Day 1.
 
Downloaded the demo, really disappointed with the art style used in this game - it's not as good as MVC3 and it's certainly not as good as the new DBFZ.

huh, i didn't even think about that. that would be mad interesting, haha.

"you buster" is definitely my favorite

Man MvC3 animations were so great...
in general the game still looks great despite being 6(!!) years old. marvel inf. looking p. bad in general wasn't too surprising given initial looks but the one thing that bugs me is the special effects played on moves and stuff, b/c 3 is honestly top notch when it comes that. when seeing dante's agni&rudra moves i get really bothered by how awful they look in comparison- there's no dang wind part to the moves!

Hmm... Could be a Capcom Villains and Marvel Heroes thing?

1. Sigma
2. Meio
3. Jedah

vs

1. Black Panther
2. Winter Soldier
3. Ant-Man (Maybe he had issues and had to be redone so he's last DLC?)

I mean unless its Death or Gamora, which I don't see likely

Same can be said for DMC4. Both of those game hold up surprisingly well given how old they are.

MVC3 Dante is probably the coolest designed fighting game character ever made.

Even his simple slashes look much cooler in 3 than in Infinite.

Personally I think there may very well be some veracity to that ".zip" leak after all. FChamp also commented on Twitter that soon he'll have his Thanks/Dorm team "just you wait."

Where is Ryce? What does Ryce think? WILL SOMEBODY PLEASE GET RYCE ON THE PHONE?!!

Edit: I wonder what Bucky's specials will be since Spencer got that bionic arm super on lockdown... Wait. Alternate costume but with grappling gun instead of just his arm? Might explain the new grenade move? Similar to a premiere skin ala Injustice 2? Venom could be an alt costumes for Spidey?

I'm not saying FChamp is wrong, but he's a chronic liar.

They arent "day 1 dlc" characters, that makes it sound like they are available when the game comes out, and as far as we know, the first characters wont be out for at least 1 month.

They are confirmed to be part of the season pass tho.

On disc dlc again it is then lol. I would be very surprised to see Capcom do this again which casts some serious doubt on the leak. RYCE WHERE U AT MAN. WE NEED YOU TO SHINE YOUR HOLY LIGHT OF AUTHENTICITY ON US.

There's FOUR FEMALE CHARACTERS IN A ROSTER OF 38

Good thing they put Winter Soldier in there instead of Black Widow /s

I could blame this on Marvel but the Capcom side is equally bad at female representation.

So, I haven't really had a chance to keep up. What is generally agreed to be the launch roster now? Is it still Ryce's leaked roster or do we think there are going to be more characters available at launch?

Well, Ryce's roster at this point in time is pretty much %100 gospel. He even said there was one character on Capcom side that was missing (which ended up being Zero).

Meanwhile, SneakersSO said that it was Frank West which may not be completely false as there was ANOTHER leak showing character and stage files, named after returning and new characters that Ryce CONFIRMED long before​ Ryce actually leaked the roster.

What's tricky is that the .zip leak has several characters not on Ryce's list and not confirmed as dlc or at launch (which would conflict with Ryce leak) yet as of this time. Also, this .zip leak has files for alternate costumes for the characters that were confirmed to have alternate costumes at E3. Again, this predates Ryce's list which is pretty coincidental at worst.

Leak tier:
Ryce 1
.zip distant 2nd

Cool, thanks!
 
But before E3 where the Carol Danvers outfit and "restrained Thanos" was shown.

Yeah, not saying I doubt it, just getting the timelines straight. I find it hard to believe the things that showed up in the trailer and the images were lucky guesses. It's just a matter of whether it's a complete list, who are NPCs, and who will be DLC.

It's probably both of them. Marvel probably went (we don't need these characters yet) and told capcom they have to be symmetrical to them.
