The poster did not say they will never buy the game, that they hope Capcom goes bankrupt, or something silly like that. You're giving the person a hard time for changing their mind on pre-ordering the game.

nor did I say the poster said any of those things? You clearly want this to be "a thing" but its not going to be "a thing". And im giving him a hard time? Did I insult him somehow? At most I made a sarcastic joke about it.

Your little jab about my "unconditional love for the game" btw, no I dont have unconditional love for the game (first of all I havent played it so how could that be?), I just like to be fucking fair about it, which for some bizarre reason, many people refuse to be about this one. I've trashed the many aspects of the game that deserved to be trashed, but there are many that dont. And yes, I value a game, a FIGHTING game's gameplay above all else, youre damn right I do, and that I even have to defend that is utter insanity to me. It's a literal case of "back in my day".

Oh and those menus are trash by the way, as if that needed saying :p

Dam 12 days early? That reminds me I got the preorder the game. CDKeys is the cheapest for PC?

yes and dont forget to use the 5% facebook code on top of it if you buy it.

Orrrrrrrrr they get on some bootleg streaming ting


YouTube has 24/7 South Park streams going at all time according to my front page

I don't think to care to stream it that bad bro. Li Joe already deleted any tweets to maybe having it early too. No one is streaming it till launch, hope for some tweeter vids or some shit. Unless Capcom puts a word out, no one is going to.

Been watching Max's Marvel vs Capcom Legacy series. It's making me really depressed seeing all the cool earlier entries.

Wait until MSH vs SF. That one is by far the black sheep of the series. We're upset at 6 new models, that one has NO new models lol :(

Damn I tried twice to make Playstation cancel my digital Deluxe pre-order and no dice. Looks like I'm just gonna have to wait like everyone else.

So ridiculous they still don't let you cancel or refund games.

They did it for me one time before but it seems after the 1 time exception they won't do it again which I can somewhat understand yet still a bummer. Was kind of looking forward to a trip to NY and to have it a week early.

Yup, main menu design is up there as my number one reasons why I don't buy videogames... good lord.

It's more of an icing on the cake thing, which is why the rest of my post exists. All it did was get me to avoid pre-ordering.

I love fighting games and as long as it's fun to play and the online is decent, I'll buy it anyway. I still play SFV occasionally despite all of it's issues, as well as Xrd and Tekken. The online is important to me because my friends that I play online fighting games with are on the opposite side of the country (California to New York). We get laggy/rollbacky SFV matches on a regular basis, and Marvel 3 is unplayable, but we play Xrd and Tekken just fine.

Yeah, but it was a yearly thing back then. We didn't have to wait 6 to 10 years for sequels.

Yeah gotta think twice before forking over that money cause once its gone its almost always hell to get it back.

Yeah that was a good deal

Yeah for sure, I just jumped the gun way too early because I wasn't planning on driving to NY at the time but I regret it now. Nothing I can do about it I suppose, once it's out it's out so I'm not too bummed about it.

The menus alone aren't going to put me off from buying the game, but them being so awful on top of every other disappointment isn't exactly a morale booster. I'm not even surprised anymore -- it's like the presentation is so bad across the board that of course the menus are going to look like shit. I can't think of a single aspect of this game outside of the gameplay that hasn't been a massive downgrade from the previous entry, be it the roster, art direction, music, cast, or voice direction. Japanese voices are gone. Arcade mode endings are gone. It's all just so frustrating and upsetting. This game should have been a home run.

It's even more baffling when you take into account how badly SFV was received at launch. One would've thought Capcom would go all-out for a new MvC game, but they dropped the ball so hard. This went from a Day 1 for me to a let's just patiently wait till next year.

Wasn't that freak at the bottom new?
Also five shotos in a single game god damn.

hes actually only in the japanese version right? I guess technically hes new, hes not a capcom or marvel character tho, some sort of joke character as a homage to a japanese comedian?

Im sure someone knows more about it. I gues this is the version most of us played:

Yep. What a strange attempt at attracting Japanese players.
 
MSHvSF is definitely the most forgettable one. No new characters, and a futile attempt at removing all the broken stuff ended up yielding a boring game. Even in the arcades it was quickly forgotten when the next two games in the series released. The only fun thing about it was how broken Wolverine was in it with the Wolvie-Copter meter building and Berserker Rage infinites.

what im really curious is to see, assuming they happen, if they price returning from 3 characters the same as brand new ones.

yes

but thats not something to worry about for at least until next year.

What do you think this is, Smash Bros.? Please, they'll all cost the same.

I think only Smash does that. Even MKX charged full price for Goro.

Maybe you know somebody that you can sell it to for close to full price? Get it early, play it early - and then sell it to a friend a day or two before release for like, 50 dollars. Then of course soon after you have your digital copy come in.
