It will be a 2.5D fighter running on MT Framework, same engine that powered Resident Evil 5 & Lost Planet 2, and will hit the PS3 and Xbox 360 next spring. It won't just use the same fighting system from Tatsunoko vs. Capcom (even though that bit at the end of the trailer sure looks familiar). The game will feature over 30 characters and will feature three-on-three tag battles, just like Marvel vs. Capcom 2 did.

I'm pretty sure anyone who's ever played a fighting game knows this isn't a good thing.Galvatron78 wrote:Hahaha so I'm not the only one that sees some shit wrong with this......with that kind of control scheme it'll be a "chip n' cheese-fest".....no skill involved whatsoever.Lid wrote:they tryin to set a precedent for most broken/unbalanced game everGalvatron78 wrote:Ok now this made me goTired & Broke wrote:and apparently it will feature one button specials.Galvatron78 wrote:and then they wanna wait til' 2011....that's bullshit.

New Game Informer Mag Reveals New Characters And Info For Marvel Vs. Capcom 3
After the announcement of Marvel Vs. Capcom 3, news kinda died off quick but it looks like some tidbits are coming out again.
The latest issue of Game Informer not only shows some new images from the game, They also reveal some new characters. Dante from Devil May Cry, Felicia, Captain America and Deadpool are all confirmed as playable characters. Though that may not really surprise anyone, it is nice to hear them officially announced. It also further backs up what I said about the more cartoonish characters such as MegaMan being left on the sidelines this time around.
Also someone going by the name of גfeatherג has seen the new issue of Game Informer and said the following details were in the magגs feature on MVC3ג¦
גItגs just Marvel Vs Capcom, absolutely nothing was said about another party. Random guy on youtube was just spouting bs.
גSales of Marvel Vs Capcom 2 surpassed their expectations by a whole lot.
גMarvel is at itגs גstrongest point everג right now, they decided it was the perfect time to create a game like this.
גDisney did not impact the project positively or negatively in any way.
גGame runs on MT Framework engine that LP2 and RE5 run on.
גFrom the screens, the game looks VERY VERY VERY comic book-y, it actually looks very different than MvC2 did, most of the colors are very bright, and again, VERY comic-book looking. They basically look exactly the same in gameplay as they did in that trailer. If TvC was eastern anime styled, than MvC3 is western cartoon styled.
גBackgrounds will be lively. J Jonah Jameson is in a helicoptor in the background of the Daily Bugle stage shouting and pointing at the players. Thereגs also a parade in the background that has huge air balloons of characters like Spider-Man and Viewtiful Joe. Servbots and Tron Bonne in the background of the Megaman Legends stage.
גגThe flow of combat is just as intense and hectic as MvC 2, and all the hardcore elements remain intact. Three-on-three tag-team combat returns, complete with the assists and team building structure of the previous title. Veterans can look forward to alpha, beta, and gamma assist types, snapbacks, and hyper move cancels. Even if you donגt know what a snapback is, youגre still going to be able to pull of show-stopping aerial raves, since the team at Capcom is streamlining the process for executing advanced maneuvers.ג
גThey want to maximize depth while minimizing complexity, so thatגs why they decided on TvsC style light, medium, and hard attacks.
גUppercut move is further simplified from TvsC, it receives itגs OWN button, called the גexchangeג button. Now in addition to uppercutting, you can choose the direction you slam them in, and continue the combo (like slamming them into the ground)
גCatch to that is if your opponent presses the same exchange direction as you do in a combo, than they escape your combo and counter with their own. גThis exciting rock-paper-scissors element complements the simplification of launching foes into the air, integrating a new fold of strategy for hardcore MvC fans to chew on.ג
גA sort of cross-over areal rave can be performed, where you can safely change your character in the middle of an air combo, using the exchange button. (Iגm assuming this works like tvc but the article doesnגt exactly specify)
גStory mode is being slightly improved, with גbeginning and ending story bookends, along with in-game events to keep it fresh in playersג minds. Producer Ryota Niitsuma insists that though this story is better than in other MvC games, it doesnגt steal the spotlight from the action.ג
גCaptain America, Felicia, Deadpool, and Dante confirmed. Though no screen shots are given of these new characters, they do have small bios.
גCpt. America: גThis founding member of the avengers returns with his indestructible shield to deliver combatants to justice. He preserves most of his handy move-set, complete with deadly shield-a-rang tosses and evasive cartwheel maneuvers.ג
גFelicia: גCapcomגs catgirl returns with her claws out to deliver quick and nimble combos to anyone distracted by her jiggle physics for too long. She is also able to summon a helpful little catgirl partner to double her threat.ג
גDeadpool: גDeadpool has the ability to teleport around the battlefield, but do it too many times and his device will backfire to hilarious results. Even breaking the fourth wall, Deadpoolגs special consists of beating down opponents with his own life bar.ג
גDante: גHe may be based on the young Devil May Cry 3 protagonist, but this Dante comes equipped with the best moves from the entire series. He can juggle rival fighters with his dual pistols, close distances by sliding on his knees while playing Nevan (his guitar weapon), and even activate his deadly Devil Trigger mode to increase his speed and power.ג
גChris: גThis BSAA agent brings over every weapon he can carry from Resident Evil 5 into Marvel vs Capcom 3. Chris devastates opponents with his pistol, shotgun, submachine gun, magnum, satellite laser, and grenade launcher (complete with fire, ice, and electric rounds). He also has a slide attack utilizing his electric baton.ג
גThe Hulk: גBruce Banner returns in his pissed-off form, and somehow heגs even more monstrous than before. This green juggernaut is still sluggish, but his immense power and earth-quaking special make him a good bruiser for your team makeup.ג
גWolverine: גLoganגs claws ravage everything unfortunate enough to stand before him in brilliant swipes of color. His trademark Berserker Barrage move return as both an assist move and a special, making him a perfect main for your team and also a menacing assist character.ג
גMorrigan: גDarkstalkersג seductive succubus continues the battle with all her otherworldly moves. She catapults opponents skyward with a gigantic spear summoned from the ground and delivers flying reverse pile drivers.ג
גIron Man: גSleeker and slimmer than MvC 2גs Tony Stark, this iteration of Iron Man better reflects his current style in the comics. The gold and maroon superheroגs gigantic laser cannon still makes for a great assist, and his jet-boots make him ideal for aerial maneuvers.ג
גגIf you were disappointed that you didnגt see certain no-brainer Capcom characters in Tatsunoko vs Capcom for the Wii, donגt give up hope. Niitsuma confirmed that big characters like Dante were saved from Tatsunoko for Marvel vs. Capcom 3.ג
גMvC2גs cast recycled 15years of backlog and thatגs a large reason why it had such a big cast. גThe morrigan you saw in 1994גs Darkstalkers was basically what you saw in 2000גs MvC 2.ג
גMvC3גs characters all started from scratch.
גCapcom is paying a very large attention to detail to make sure all the characters are very in-character and act like themselves.
גGI raved about the graphics for a good paragraph, apparently lighting is superb and iron manגs armor has reflections.
גGI seemed very impressed with how Dante was represented in the game. גHis cockiness and bravado shines through in every action, doing the white-haired badass justice.ג
