Surprised they went with Frank, Firebrand, and Spencer over her. Maybe you can excuse Frank because DR4 came this year and Red for bring a villain with a very unique fight style (though this can apply to every character depending on your opinion) but going with Spencer was the wrong call I feel.

Alright so we did this for UMVC3.....
What is your launch team? It'll be fun to come back in 2/3 years and see how wrong we were about this game
I'm doing Firebrand/Jedah/Space. Unblockables for days.

I'm surprised by how fun they made him look I also saw some Hulk gameplay and he looks really fun too. Seems like the characters that normally wouldn't interest me are the ones catching my eye here.

If I seriously get into this, it will likely be Jedah/Cap Marvel. Jedah seems fun despite being PG, and he's voiced by my man Beast Wars Megatron. I didn't get the chance to really use Marvel in the demo, but she has some really juicy projectile beams.
I feel story mode has to do with the lack of Ammy. There was probably some discussion about bringing her back, but they needed to justify what she'd bring to the story mode when she can't directly talk to any of the rest of the cast.
Then there's translating Okami's artstyle into this game's, which I'm not sure I'd like to see.
...So Monster Hunter isn't part of the initial roster, huh.
At least Dormammu and Firebrand, two of my besties, made it and look better than ever. My friend though, he's a huge Taskmaster fan and is really disappointed to see no Brooklyn Skeletor.

Hulk one looks neat, but none of the others really grab me.
Evil Ryu turning good Ryu but still being Evil Ryu looks weird lol
These guys can barely animate humans.
Rather not imagine what they would do with a wolf.

Oh man, I really like that Hulk costume but I'm not sure I want the season pass. Have they mentioned having any costume dlc ready for sale at the game's launch?
I hadn't even thought about that. I was talking about losing the cell shading.
Is it really Amaterasu without some cell shading?

Well, a season 2 DLC announcement for Amaterasu at Capcom Cup would coincide with Okami HD's rerelease.
Does Command Mission X not have his laser scarf? Didn't see it in that trailer

I mean, most of the animations would be reused.
It's the modeling and texture work that would look bad.

Not at all, shit is essential. Same with Viewtiful Joe.
What's up with that super anyway? He still has his regular Shoryuken level 3 right? So how is this one activated and what makes it different?
Costumes look awesome. God those twitter comments. Twitter is such a damn toxic place.
Exactly, both Joe and Ammy would look fucking awful in this game's artstyle.
Though I'm betting Joe was also cut because of his proportions and someone (either at Marvel or Capcom, I don't know which) saying no one would take the story mode seriously if all of the human characters didn't have similar proportions.
I can't think of another reason that Viewtiful Joe, Capcom's resident super hero, wouldn't be back for a super hero crossover game.
Gamora/Strider or CapMarvel/Jedah or Dante/someone. Not 'cause of synergy or actual team building, but I want to try out the new characters 'cause they're the only ones that don't look whack. Dante 'cause I still Stan for Dante, even if he looks... like he does.Alright so we did this for UMVC3.....

wow those look... not good
Low health causes him to do the extra animation.
If Ryu has low health, it just changes the animation, that's all.

Why does every trailer have the volume lowered for everything except the voices. It really bothers me especially cuz the voice work isn't that good or well-mixed to begin with.

Boring answer but prob Jedah and Ultron. They excite me the most among the new comers. Not sure about gem, though.
That's not the only thing that looks weird, look at his arms rofl
Ryu has been stealing Abigail's steroids.

Removing the scarf from X's Command Mission costume literally removes the only thing that makes that costume awesome. Bummer...
I mean, Arthur is in. But yeah, still super salty about a lot of my favorite U/MvC3 newcomers being excluded. Joe and Ammy especially.

Oh. Well that's cool I guess.

I'm alarmed by people's lack of appreciation for Hot Thor.
Oh, I forgot about Arthur.
Fuck it, I have no idea why Joe isn't back. Maybe they knew he'd look like shit without cell shading.

Overall game loooks like shit mountain. SFV was beautiful. Sexy Thor is the only valid Thor.

DLC characters will be available to play at TGS. It'll probably just be Sigma and Black Panther, though.

Sounds more like they will do a demonstration, via that wonky translation.

Shit, I'd be down for a trailer of Sigma and Black Panther. Game's two weeks away, and we could use a proper trailer for those two.

The video looks pretty good.
Look like they got rid it so I guess they can't make it happened.
Man, I can't wait to see what kind of their moveset they would have. I assume that Sigma probably have few moves that Sigma Ultron have.
Gotta to have something to complains. That's a morale of this thread. /s
It says there will be a "trial play" of the DLC characters, which is usually the term used in Japan for early access or a hands-on demo. It also comes directly after the sentence stating that all 30 launch characters will be available to play at the show. I guess we'll see, though.

I really like the Thor and Ryu alt outfits. But like, I'm going to be playing on PC so I'm far more interested in what gets modded than anything Capcom produces in terms of alt outfits.

IntelliHeath

Yup, I'm more excited for Black Panther than I do for Sigma.
They remind me more of the original comic (and MSH) cartoony designs for the stones than the movie feel they using in the game.
Sweeeeeet.
Edit : oh it's not till after the game comes out. Well shit. I hoped that meant they qould be available at launch.
Hopefully Sigma pulls from different games. I really want some Scythe action.

Wolverine and doom in function.
So I have a sneaking suspicion the reason the capcom side of the roster is how it is, is because of two reasons.
1. They cannot bring back every single character from 3 on the capcom side, considering they cannot do the same for marvel since they clearly want to push MCU at launch.
2. Each character that isn't an obvious mainstay, like Ryu or Chun, was picked for the sake of story mode. Being able to pair up with characters for said story mode, or just in general fitting the story.
That's my current theory anyways.

SIGMA GAMEPLAY?!?
CAN'T FUCKING WAIT!!!
also day 1 team you already know that X/Zero!!!
Ima test all the stones out and see what I like the best. Might do time or soul from what I've watched but it's a lot different when you actually have it in your hands.
Ima be in the lab for so fucking long lmao. Dreams come true!!!
Same here dude, I love scythes and wanna play Jedah just cause he uses one. X4 scythe for sigma would be sooooo sick!!!
I said it before, but Sigma needs the scythe move from X4 where he electrifies the wall.
Sure, you could tag, but it'll hurt! Or just flat out disable tagging through that side of the screen.

I'm a lucky one in that an ok amount of my chars from UMvC3 got transferred over. I am going with my very first team in MvC3, though - Arthur & Spencer (but no DP -_-), not sure on the gem. I had teams though with Fireband, Frank, Hawkeye, some Hulk and Dormammu, too.Alright so we did this for UMVC3.....

I'm actually pretty happy with the roster size for now, one of the few people to likely say that. Relearning my old characters, finding out what crazy stuff can be done with everyone able to now tag anywhere, and then add the gems....I'm good for a bit I think. I still want new characters hell yes, but I'm at peace with the roster for now.
Also, definitely going to be one of even fewer people to say this....bring Hsien Ko back dangit!!! I loved her in 3, paired with MODOK and Deadpool/Spencer, there were some really great things to do. With how they have made every character (seemingly) pretty viable and capable on their own, I would love to see how they would improve her.
