The Official Marvel vs Capcom 3 Thread

Anyone else think Shuma-Gorath has a good shot at being the next Sentinel in terms of being spammed online? He has deceivingly long reach with his tentacles and his special can be spammed pretty easily.
 
Taken from eventhubs:

Updated: It's been confirmed that Sentinel's health has been nerfed. It's about 910,000 now — down from 1,300,000. Sentinel has a bit more stamina than Spider-Man now (900,000), but less than Wolverine (950,000). There may be other changes in the patch as well, time will tell. As they're discovered, they'll be reported here on the front page of the website.

If you find any other changes, feel free to leave them below as a comment.

Users who start up Marvel vs. Capcom 3 today will be prompted at some point to download an approximately 1 megabyte update for the game on Xbox Live or 23 megabytes on PSN. The update contains Event Mode, along with some other balance changes.

Event Mode won't go live until March 25, 2011, and it contains a series of special challenges. Completing these challenges will unlock various titles, which are detailed in the Brady Games strategy guide, on page 397.

There may be other things offered in this mode as well, but so far Capcom has been very hush hush about what will be opened up.

Going by the available titles, there are 50 challenges in event mode for players to take on.

The nerfed the **** outta Sent lol wonder what else they changed.
 
Glad they nerfed the bastard. After not playing MVC3 for 2 weeks then picking it up again. I am quite enjoying it after all. Still hate the Dante and Deadpool spammers.
 
I really didnt have a problem facing him as the frequency of which I faced him.


This. It's no secret I'm not a big online gaming fan but I thought I'd give this a try. It was pretty fun but I think at least 4 out of every 5 matches included someone using Sentinel and spamming their assist the whole match. It's like, holy nuts, at least I suck using different people once in a while.

Actually I think it's a pretty interesting look at the mindset of some people. I personally only spammed Sentinel when I was grinding through unlocking all the endings (NEUTRALIZE makes the sub bosses pretty simple to beat) and thought "well I'd never use this vs someone else because that would not only be cheap it wouldn't be very fun". I guess to some winning trumps having fun, since it can't be that enjoyable to just outspam everyone you play.
 
Most Sentinel users are such a bad loosers. Yesterday I was beating one up, just before his sentinel dies, his disconnected from the session and send me a lovely message "You f^$king retard as!#ole, you're so pathetic" ... I wonder what I did to deserve that lol! I guess his ego was hurt since he was much better ranked than me.
 
I hate those who like to spam overpowered characters in the game. The teams I assembled is good, yet well balanced. Plus, people won't even accept my challenges cuz they believe I suck. I even pulled some major upsets against some opponents.
 
I am using for now Spiderman/Ironman/Ryu, but I am not feeling confortable yet with my team.

One of my "alt" teams is Spiderman / Captain Americia / Magneto, I was feeling pretty good about those three last time I had used them.
 
My teams are:

Primary Team: Spider-Man, Chris Redfield, Iron Man
Secondary Team: Ryu, Akuma, Deadpool

Sorry I don't have the game no more. I was only renting it.

lmao, I haven't run into too many Deadpool spammers but, holy hell, EVERYONE IS DANTE.
 
Crapcom ****ed up nerfing Sent and other stuff. lame lame lame.

I thought you would be happy about it. You were calling the game "the fate of the two sentinels" not so long ago. His nerfing is a good thing, he has too many invincible frames for a 1.300.000 hp character.

So what else did the patch do? All I hear about it anywhere is the Sentinel nerfing. I was hoping it would have maybe boosted Phoenix a little since it seems kind of lame she can get beat by like 3 hits.

No lol! she's hard already to beat if she manages to transform into dark phoenix. She has low HP for balance issues.
 
Downloaded Jill Valentine....she's alright....she is pretty fast...worth the $5? Well, yes, for me, because I'm an RE fangirl, but don't think she would be worth it for others. Then again, I am passing early judgment since I just started to play as her so I haven't fully gotten all I can get out of her (or at least I don't think I have...)

I havnt bothered to Dl either of them nor play the game. I havnt heard if the online has been adjusted / fixed so I am not going to bother which is unfortunate since I do enjoy the game.
