NerdJosh is streaming UMvC3 (cleared it with Twitch.tv apparently), Spooky on the mic. http://www.twitch.tv/nerdjosh waspinator posted:So a question from a mvc newbie (haven't played since mvc2 on dc), how would racoon, arthur, and strider, deadpool, or zero work out as a team? You may be able to find a combination there that will work, but you should just play around with characters until you find some that you like and then work things out from there.

Speaking of San Diego, if there's anyone else in the thread besides Rokstar and myself down here there's a midnight release party at the GameStop off of the 15 and Aero Drive (by Fry's Electronics).

Poco posted:I was told Wolverine lost a ton of viability in UMvC3 because Berserker Slash lost its invincibility. Has it affected him that much, or is he still able to rushdown? Wolverine/Sentinel/Akuma is what I used before, and I think the team should still be okay in this game. Vengarr posted:For the third...I dunno, I've been thinking about this myself. I've been playing Wesker/Spencer/Doom lately, but Doom's Plasma Beam just doesn't work with Wesker resets. Because Spencer and Doom are probably going to be 2 and 3 on your team, you can pick guys with lovely assists and just let them play out the string on point. Like Iron Fist, maybe, or Chun-Li, or Crimson Viper? And imo for that team it would be better to start Spencer, but I have also been making a team with Wesker in the second spot so that I can DHC into his super and have him out there with two assists+no-glasses powerup. Spencer diagonal grapple (sets up ground resets after Wesker OTG, plus I use Wesker's wall bounce moves)/Wesker gunshot (helps with Spencer high-low setups or combos)/Doom beam is one of the ideas I had.

Fenn the Fool! posted:Delving into the guide to answer my own question here, when used as a Crossover Counter Deadpool-a, Thor-b, X-23-y, Chris-a, Felicia-a, Tron-b, and Joe-b are all invincible and can be comboed out of sans-meter. I'm pretty bad, but I've found letting your opponent throw a few attacks that you interrupt with xfactor into Doom Time to be really simple and reliable. Being able to do pretty much the same thing multiple times per game seems really awesome, does anyone actually do this? What I see with the characters+assists you listed is that they look to be characters that not many people used or assists that people usually don't use. From what I've seen (mainly talking about vanilla): Deadpool is better with Katanarama for OTG or guns to cover space, nobody uses Thor other than Nidd who does use the counter invincibility I believe, X-23 players use Ankle Slice for OTG+low attack, Chris I usually see the grenade, Felicia wasn't used much but the low attack is her best assist at least, pretty much nobody wanted Tron active in vanilla and especially not now in Ultimate, and Joe I don't know.

As I understood Doom in vanilla, he needed the Buktooth loop for his midscreen combo. Now he can do launch, M (2 hits) M f+H S airdash downforward whiff M, land, jump upforward, immediate airdash downforward, land, H (OTG) S into another air combo. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3VgCH-oPbc&t=3m17s or 3:17 in this vid https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3VgCH-oPbc

Millions posted:In Amaterasu's beginner BNB combo from the guide, I'm supposed to go from an aerial Head Charge H then land and combo into a standing M. The trouble is, aerial Head Charge H causes hard knockdown and standing M doesn't hit OTG. Am I supposed to wait for the opponent to roll from the hard knockdown and then hit with standing M, or am I doing something wrong?

Mr Wind Up Bird posted:I'm sort of having that problem too. I'll mess around in training mode for a little bit and sort of feel like I've got a pretty good grasp on what I'd like to be doing but as soon as a fight starts I instantly forget everything I've been practicing. And how to block or move forward without jumping. Playing online makes me feel like every single other person on earth is better than I am. Also, Justin Wong and others are insisting that Felicia is super good in this game, so you can stick with her and wait for footage to pop up to add new tricks to your arsenal.

Mr. Fun posted:Thanks, I'd been too lazy to copy those out myself yet. I'm having trouble hitting the up grapple after a launcher though, it's always on my side of the opponent and not connecting. Not sure what the trick is, any advice? Positioning also matters because Spencer's launcher sends characters a little forward too.

FauxCyclops posted:Chiming in that Felicia has quite a viable OTG assist in her Sand Slash that is handy for extending Nemesis combos; the timing is less forgiving than, say, Deadpool's by a long way but it is there. It is a crime nobody plays her! Justin Wong is still claiming Felicia to be really good in this game, so we'll see if he does anything with her at SCR in a few weeks (or NEC next week, if he goes to that).

Van Ishikawa posted:Strider is one of the best anchors in the game actually because of XF3 Oroborous. I can't say anything about the team synergy of Zero/Dog/Strider though. As far as Joe/Ammy/Rocket, if you go the DIeminion route with Joe and spam Voomerangs with Joe and occasionaly rushdown with his air movement and overhead I imagine the team will be okay with Ammy Cold Star and whatever assist is good with Rocket.

The Crusher posted:People will generally recommend that going against CPU does basically nothing for you. Maybe if you're attempting to practice hit confirms under pressure, but you can set training mode block to random for that. As far as your characters, I think the best setups there would be Viper/X-23/Iron Man as an offensive team and some order of Dormammu/Ghost Rider/Strange as a zoning team. Iron Man's Unibeam assist would be useful for helping Viper/X-23 get in to start offense. The other three are all best as zoning characters (keeping the opponent at a distance with projectiles and long range moves and such) so you could use them all together.

I feel like my team construction is always very limited because I always want Sentinel, Doom, or Hawkeye Triple Arrows in my third slot. Depends on your other characters though. Some characters are mobile enough that don't need the help of a projectile assist as much as less mobile characters. edit see: PR Balrog playing Spencer/Wolverine/Wesker iPodschun fucked around with this message at 18:44 on Dec 3, 2011 |

A surprising number of zoning characters can't control the top corners of the screen, so guys like Wesker or Chris can just super-jump, fire downwards and mess you up. Dormammu doesn't have that problem because Purification H owns, so he makes a great anchor. I'd definitely put MODOK on point and have Doom behind him.

Heroic Yoshimitsu posted:My team right now is Hawkeye/Vergil/Sentinel. I like the first two, but I'm not really feeling Sentinel. He's fine as an anchor and his assist is good and all, but I want to try someone else. Is there someone in particular that compliments the Hawkeye and Vergil? And of course there's Wesker, who doesn't really help Hawkeye much but can help Vergil extend combos I would think, and is probably the best anchor in the game.
