The IGN review is pretty funny. I especially liked:

"The character select menu has been reworked to separate the Marvel characters from the Capcom fighters, which makes it a little easier to find specific characters in the roster."

Select menu? Lolz. Also, the thing about characters being separated by affiliation and therefore easier to locate, implying the opposite of vanilla.

Any advice on consistently getting the hyper grav loop in Ultimate? I could pull it off reliably in vanilla, but I can't seem to do the same now, unless I'm in x factor. I've tried air dashing earlier, and it looks like the hyper grab should connect, but it doesn't.

Edit: I think I figured it out.

Laser seems nice but she could already do seismos for zoning so time will tell how useful that move will be. More time to input feint doesn't seem like a big deal to me.

It seems like her combo potential is better.

In vanilla my bnb combo was air dash down forward c, cr, a, st. a, cr, b, cr.c, s xx l. seismo, air dash b, air s, st. b, s, air c, double jump, air c, air s, land l. seismo xx super. If you tried to do a second seismo and then continue the combo, your opponent would reset after the first hit after the second seismo. (I admit that I may be misremembering this.)

Anyway, now not only can I add on another seismo, but I can add in an ex burning kick and actually get a relaunch without resetting. So the combo looks like this: air dash down forward c, cr, a, st. a, cr, b, cr.c, s xx l. seismo, air dash b, air s, st. b, s, l. seismo, air dash b, air s, air ex burning kick, st. c, s, air c, double jump, air c, air s, l. seismo xx qcb super.

Not only that, but in vanilla you couldn't combo st.c, h. thunder knuckle xx super even after most, if not all extended combos. For example, I could only get that to work after cr. a, st. a, cr. b, cr. c, s xx h. thunder knuckle, qcb super. Now, I can get it to work as part of most extended combos.

My main team right now is Doc Strange/Storm/Sent. I did a little mini effort post earlier today.

I... actually haven't gotten around to learning Firebrand yet :negative: My alt team is definitely gonna be built around him based on pure love for the character.

I haven't had a lot of time to play the game unfortunately, and just picked up the guide today but I didn't see this mentioned so I figured I'd share. I "found" something kind of cool with Storm. It's not insane or anything, but maybe you can mess around with it and make it better.

Anyway, after launching with cr. c, then jump canceling and doing air b, air b, air c, you have enough time now to jump immediately after this and follow up with air b, air b, air c or maybe something better. From there you can do st. b, cr. c, s, etc. Haven't really tested the new c loop bnb, but I'm guessing this can replace the vanilla, non-loop combo that allowed for one cr. c launch, then an s launch, and two reps of air b, air b, air c, 3 lightening attacks into super.

Ok, so I'm running into a few problems since I'm coming fresh from MvC2.

I've been running Dante/Akuma/Sentinel since Tuesday, and I'm really having a bit of trouble getting into the team. I really am not feeling too much synergy with Dante, as opposed to Akuma/Sent, who feel ok. Is there a good point character for this team right now? I've been testing out a few in training mode (Iron Fist, Wesker) and none of them really seem to fit the team's assist that I've been running (B/A). Any suggestions on who I should try out?

Also, I need to get a fight stick. 360's 'D-pad' is abysmal.

Noob Kwestion Korner: What's the purpose of Dr. Strange's hyper move where he summons that blue energy around him?

Also, how do you burn Nova's red health to power up his attacks?

1. That's a projectile counter. You need to get hit by a projectile in order for Dr. Strange to counter.

2. Nova burns red health automatically while using some of his attacks.

Well, for fun I played Hayato/Jin/Sentinnel. I really enjoyed the rushdown/high pressure aspect of the team. If I was able to corner someone, constant pressure from Jin's Saotome Typhoon and Hayato's special moves made it fun. To be honest, Jin was probably my favorite character on that team.

If I was playing in a more serious setting, I'd play Storm/Jin/Sent. I got to be pretty good with Storm.

As you can see, I really liked to play as Jin (he better not be slain gently caress you capcom).

In terms of how good I was, I was decent enough to win the tournament at my very small, Tekken-loving (there were a few guys who played MvC2 till MvC3 came out) college for the past two years. I ended up pretty decent at controlling screen space, and I even perfect perfected a few guys who were supposedly good. I guess I might be above average maybe?

Try Storm/Frank West/Dr. Doom.

What am I doing wrong? I tried both holding the stick forward and flicking it. It's the only thing that's really keeping me from Doom right now.

Just do forward c. That's just a command normal, it shouldn't be hard to execute at all. Although, maybe your stick is just defective.

Don't know if this has been covered in the thread, but I did google and youtube searches without finding anything so:

I came across a trivial camera glitch using Iron Man. You can do this anywhere on screen: cr. l, cr. m, st. h, l Repulsar Blast into any of his three hyper combos. Wait for l Repulsar to end, leaving the opponent above and behind Iron Man. At that point initiate any of his hyper combos. If done properly, during the startup for Iron Avenger the camera will show IM from behind. It will show him from behind for all of both Proton Canon hypers.

Edit: Forgot to add that an easier way to connect Proton Canon for this glitch is to cancel the last hit of l Repulsar Blast into PC.

Words mean things. The word "lame" already has a definition. That's all I'm saying here. I'll drop it after this post.

This lame argument is pretty lame. And yes words mean things, but context is huge. It's not the same meaning of lame like that time you walked in on your gf and your best friend(s) and you were all like 'loving lame dude.' It means something else entirely. In fact, the fgc's usage of that word is actually closer to its dictionary definition, than the more colloquial usage you're so wrapped up about.

Yeah, what do want to bet on H&H having no local play. Vanilla Marvel Shadow Mode couldn't be played unless you were connected to the internet. Which is ridiculous, b/c Shadow mode packs cost a dollar or two each and didn't even need online to function.

Maybe I'm just shaking off the rust after not playing any fighting games for 6 months but Magnus mission 9 is driving me nuts:

S, SJC, j.H, ADD, j.H, H, S, SJC, j.H, ADD, j.H, H, Hypergrav...there's more but in about 100 attempts I've landed the last H before hypergrav maybe 10 times. Haggar tends to recover too soon.
I can do all of it up to the last s.H no problem and I've tried varying the timing on every part of it. The time when i have connected it just doesn't feel any different to when it whiffs :psyduck:

Any tips?

I more or less main Mag If Haggar is recovering too soon, then you're probably doing the st. H too late. Ideally, you want to hit your opponent as early as possible with st. H to connect with Hyper Grab/as part of the hg loop.

You may also be canceling into Hyper Grab too late.

Also, once you get to Mission 10, just remember to sjc into GS at the end.

Why not though? Couldn't your buddy just choose to be evil or whatever? I don't see any advantage whatsoever making this online/ai only. Capcom gives us the ability to change all kinds of system parameters, etc. yet the only way to enjoy it is over online? The same online which is already lackluster to begin with, and down right bad in most instances?

It's cool though. We'll probably get a local play option in the inevitable Arcade Edition update.
