I feel like Wesker has changed a lot. I didn't realize how much I relied on gunshot -> teleport and juggle for damage. Also it feels like his j.S and his crouching normals have dropped in priority a bit.

Actually, negative edge isn't in the MvC3 engine. At least, they say as much in the bible.

Get with the picture. Vergil is one of the best characters in the game. He's like Dante but scrubbier, with longer combos, more damage, better mobility, better mixups, and better resets. Day one Vergil is pretty high up there.

I have no idea how people are using the term in MvC3 though.

In Marvel 3, you're protected from air throws during a forced tag-in (snapback/death) until you perform any inputs. So the new Guard Break is to force an incoming opponent to block which allows a follow-up air throw on them.

Do Arcade mode, or if you're looking to fight a specific team, put it in Training Mode and set the other guy to "CPU" and turn off life/super regen and the infinite timer.

Off the top of my head he has the short range judgment cut, his dp, and his berserker barrage/slash. The last one is probably what you'd want, but I doubt it's very safe apart from just being fast.

On a side note, the guide's Chun Li section is amusing. From what they're saying she got a ton of juice but is by far the hardest character in the game because of how demanding her execution is. I'd like to see some top player pick her up and go crazy, but as usual, why bother when you could just pick Wesker, Ryu, or whoever else.

He has a move where he rushes across the screen and slashes everything. It has no invincibility so it's easy to get caught out but it's surprisingly good for keeping someone on the ground. It's super quick so it's hard to just jump over if they don't just know it's coming and the range is huge.

OK thanks I'll try that one. I was gonna play Wesker/Doom/Strider but I can't play Doom for poo poo no matter how much I practice so I'm gonna try replacing him with Vergil and see what happens.

All 3 characters teleport so that'll be hellish for all the gimmick Phoenix Wright teams out there today.

Now I see why nobody pre-ordered with Bestbuy. Preordered, paid in full, got the email confirmation to pick it up today; get there and they not only don't have it, they haven't even ordered it. After an hour of them not knowing what the gently caress and me having to call their customer service line to get my refund.

So looks like no preorder costumes for me. :negative:

Which is probably related to the fact that there are ZERO Best Buy preorder codes on eBay, tons of Amazon codes, and one Gamestop code.

It seems like these new missions aren't assinine and impractical enough. Instead of doing multiple 1-frame links in the corner against Viewtiful Joe, I would rather being doing multiple 1-frame links in the corner against Rocket Raccoon. I think that would be a proper teaching mechanism to the concepts of this game.

Disclaimer: I suck at this game

I always used Chun Li in Vanilla primarily for double air dashing into people's faces and Hyakurestu-ing like there was no tomorrow. She was basically my "take a mental break" character because it was so easy to just give people fits by doing that and it took zero brain power.

Well yeah, you can just mindlessly air dash in and mash legs and eventually you'll get lucky and land some horribly scaled 300k combo, but according to the guide her core offense is instant overheads with j.d+M canceled into legs to continue the combo or if you get push blocked kara airdash (which is apparently also an air throw OS) back in for more mixups. Comboing from her otg is also difficult but as I understand can be done anywhere. Her combos also can involve looping air sbks as low as possible, and keeping charge for low altitude air ex sbk because it leads to combos on hit. I think there's a lot of stuff she can do off her dp, and she still has her top of the stage infinite. The guide makes her sound like in the hands of someone with crazy execution she'll be scary as hell, but there's still the issue of why you would bother when you could just use New Best Friends.

VVVV For what it's worth, Gamestop did the printed-on-receipt thing. That has no bearing on what Best Buy does, but maybe someone was wondering.

Does Best Buy print the DLC code on the receipt or are this round of DLC codes all in the box?

I got mine from Amazon but I have yet to receive any e-mails regarding pre-order codes, and I ordered mine the day it showed up on Amazon. I really want that MODOK, and I wonder if it's something I can just walk in and ask if they have any more of, if it's just on a piece of paper or on a receipt or something, so I can pick it up now and return my Amazon purchase.

From the info I received with my failed preorder, it's an emailed code. But considering how things are ran there I wouldn't be at all surprised if many folks never receive their codes.
