I'm waiting until I get the game and until a complete pack gets out.

$5 for a completely new move set, 4 character colors, story ending, mission mode, and collection of titles sounds like a pretty good deal to me.

It's no worse than other games charging you $5 for a piece of polygons that gets placed on your head and has no positive effect aside from "it looks silly."

I don't buy hats in TF2 though. And actually most hats range somewhere from 10 to 20 dollars, but are still normally obtainable without buying.

I dunno if I get a few bucks to waste some time I'll probably buy Shuma but buying game items always sounds stupid to me (even though I've done it before).

If only I didn't need to buy MvC3, I could just pay $5 for Shuma and play as him all day

I'm also really starting to like Viewtiful Joe, if for no other reason than his TRIPLE JUMP AIR COMBOS.

we are no longer friends

Got my ass handed to me by people at school (I go to a community college). I didn't even realize that if you change the state of the character AKA Shadow Zero, Ultimate Zombie Hsien-Ko and tag out they maintain that state.

This. I got her in a random select once and she just feels so good to play as.

I have four words that summarize my thoughts on the game:

I. HATE. SIMPLE. MODE!

I've lost 10 times in a row against Apoc, no matter what my team consisted of (Felicia, Tron, Arthur, Deadpool, Hulk, Haggar, etc.). He uses Simple Mode, and won't let me use it at all ("Oh, you're good at this game, so you play on Normal Mode!"). I simply (no pun intended) can NOT deal with anyone who can dish out stupid combos just by mashing Square, or projectile spam by mashing Triangle, making it impossible for me to retaliate (Advancing Guard doesn't help, either).

Anyone have any tips against fighting Simple-tons? Or more specifically, against Dante, Sentinel, and Taskmaster?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA GOOD LUCK

Oh, um, I mean.


Lots of jumping and taking advantage of characters that can teleport. I generally don't have a problem against "the average" Sentinel player anymore, it's the advanced Sentinel players that are shitty to deal with. As for Dante, I've noticed that most players now are overusing his crouching start-up to his combos, or frequently using his air Down C for combos.

As for Taskmaster, I couldn't help you there because I never see him online, ever.

Well, the way he plays as Taskmaster is just "AIM OF HAWKEYE AIM OF HAWKEYE AIM OF HAWKEYE" arrow spam, and if I get close he either attacks me before I can grab him, or does that counterattack special the moment I try to land an attack so I get hurt instead. Really annoying, because he's beaten me once without Taskmaster taking any damage whatsoever by doing that.

Either way, I think I could do with some more training so I can counter his annoying tactics.

Oh, in that case, take advantage of getting up close and grabbing (just be close and press Forward+C or Back+C).

Taskmaster can be a bitch to deal with because he can keep you out, his arrows do chip like no other, and he has insane mobility (6H to Web Swing really?)and his combos do big damage.


That being said besides his counter move, he has nothing to stop you when you put on pressure.

Look out for his launcher though, I think it has some invis frames.


EDIT: Captain America's shieldchagre goes through most projectiles, with the only exception I can think of being Deadpool's "HAVE GUN WILL SHOOT" thing. You can always try him.

captain america owns really hard, and i'm kinda sad i never see him online unless someone's planning on juggling you with charging star :l

lol simple mode
