Be careful guys, the guy who wrote the article haven't played the game, he is using Capcom Unity Brasil and WB Games Brasil as sources, the dude seems to be only inferring that there are going to be endings for arcade mode. The only thing that is mentioned that I haven't seen anywhere else is that beating arcade unlocks colors for the team used.

Oh, right, at the top. The writer says

Tras revelaciones en Capcom Unity Brasil y de WB Games Brasil, donde se jugo la versión casi final del tan criticado juego, se han presentado detalles de las modalidades que muestra esta entrega de Marvel vs Capcom.

"Following revelations in Capcom Unity Brazil and WB Games Brazil, where the nearly final version of the the highly criticised game was played, details about the modes shown in this entry of Marvel vs Capcom have presented themselves."

Sounds like a second hand fluff piece.

I don't think there's endings, or if there are this article has no idea if they do.

Fair enough but Wesker have a decent shot to make in the game via DLC if the game sells very well.

Here's hoping...!

I just find it a bit odd that one of the villains with a (somewhat?) major role in 3 found himself AWOL. Same goes for Doctor Doom.

Speaking of Doctors, what came of that rumor of Doc Ock? I haven't really been following this very closely; the last bit of official news I saw was Jedah, and I'm not clear on which rumors have been killed off.

Have we heard any "revelations" from Capcom Unity Brazil? What is that referring to?


Doctor Octopus wasn't rumored for Infinite to my knowledge. He was planned and cut from 3

Doc Ock was "rumoured" in this 'cause he was cut from 3 and 'cause he was mentioned by an interviewer in an interview. Nothing concrete and he was never in any of the real leaks, either.

He's probably going off of the possibility of endings being in the full version like the other writer did.

Either way, I give up on speculation.

The veracity of the article is questionable but they seem to believe there are endings, it's to be taken with a grain of salt tho.

MVC Origins as well, but I was talking about the character reveal trailers, not Assist me!

Oh wait, was MVC3 Assist Me! not his own production that got the attention of Marvel and Capcom to the point that they endorsed/hired him to do Ultimate Assist Me and Retro Assist Me?

I wonder if Max (or anyone) will make a tutorial video on all the mechanics, I dont trust the game itself to have it.

How to pushblock, counter switch, magic series, all that jazz.

I've been saying this game gonna be fun and nuts since the beginning, never doubted this game whatsoever.

Yeah graphics are different, voice acting is kinda ehhh but other than that we valid. We got everything (at least more than sf5).

They adding dream characters (well, for me at least. X. Sigma etc.) I know some of y'all happy af for Jedah too. We got all new chars for dlc (yeah it's dlc but shit, this been going on for thousands of years now essentially, I'm not getting tight over it anymore).

They're outright coming out and saying we gonna support this game to the fullest (I think, I could be wrong lmao) but a lot more vocal than mahvel 3 and WE CAN FINALLY PUT MAHVEL 3 TO REST. I've been playing this game since before it even came out. It's gonna be crazy finally playing a new marvel... rip mahvel 3.

2 weeks and WE IN THERE.

oh that Firebrand mini tornado actually moves forward and stays there for a bit, its not jut a stationary thing in front of him, you can use it for incoming character mix ups.

Firebrand is looking good man, at least for my noob ass eyes.

To be fair now that we know the end product...the marketing team didn't have much to work with...

That's absolutely not true. I have seen way worse games get godlike advertising. This game had shit advertising and marketing all around.

The initial Story trailers could have been cut in any other way and they'd probably be better, the gameplay/character trailers were boring and bad and didn't showcase the mechanics at all, and early interviews misrepresented the product while later ones were straight up disasters.

This could have had an infinitely (ha) better marketing cycle.

Sure I don't excuse what ended up happening but you at a surface level everything looks downgraded from umvc3. Things like character videos and weekly live streams should have been a thing but you can't have hype reveals when there's only 5 (or 6) new characters and many old favorites were excluded.

Wait.. what was wrong with the story trailers? They're great. A little repetitive, but you need that.

They needed to split up the gameplay trailers and character reveals a lot more, I can agree with that.

And the gameplay trailers did showcase the mechanics, not sure what that means, especially when half of their production value goes into showing off the stones. There was a mechanics trailer, too, it just came too late.

I remember when we all thought Capcom just wanted to get the MVC3 characters out of the way so they could go hard with the newer ones.

We were way off.

Also you could turn mini tornado into a tall fire wall or beam by hit a tornado with a fireball.

The first two story trailers were slow and plodding and had extended cuts of bad action, which doesn't look good. They were not great, imo. Look no further than the little ending "stingers" at the end of the trailers that just kinda... happen? They're supposed to be funny, I guess?

And I should rephrase: they didn't show off the mechanics properly. Sure we saw some really small tag combos and characters doing like of two moves before tagging.

And you say that, but people were still arguing what the Mind Stone did/how it worked after the trailer because the trailer is cut in such a way that you can't see clearly what it does. Also, I don't remember a mechanics trailer at all? Only the gameplay trailers.

Why do so many hypers have really awkward startup animations? The camera just sort of abruptly freezes on the model. Only some of the hypers have a natural camera pan reminiscent of MvC3. It's jarring.

Max is apparently doing individual character videos for the MvCI cast.

Max Does What Capcom Doesn't? Its good idea to release *any* new official videos since they haven't done anything meaningful to promote the game in a while.

I find it absolutely perplexing that Capcom has been doing almost nothing to promote MvCI. There was nothing between the awkward Jedah exhibition and Gamescom and then Gamescom itself just had a quick trailer dump. I can only imagine that (a) they have/had a shoestring marketing budget or (b) they determined the game's image isn't salvageable and decided to allocate the marketing dollars elsewhere.

I almost wish they went back to MvC1 style character portraits appearing whenever you did a hyper. Would be hilarious to see old crackhead Dante or baby Chun flash on screen
