A standalone update to Marvel vs Capcom 3 featuring new modes, characters, stages, an enhanced online experience, and large-scale rebalancing of core systems and the existing roster.
Will you be upgrading to UMVC3?
I like fighting games. I usually buy any one that comes out but I won't be purchasing UMVC3. I share Jeff's experience with MVC3, I was never into the series but bought 3, got reasonably decent at it and then put it down and didn't keep up. Now I upgraded to SSF IV because I love that franchise and the fighting game itself, so I am wondering who in GB will be upgrading or getting into UMVC3 as a new player.
It also doesn't help that this game will be coming out during a period of many other big titles.
I didn't buy MVC3 (partially because I knew they would put out an Ultimate or Super or something version soonish) but I will buy this.
I might pick it up, since I never got the vanilla version and therefore feel no guilt from doing so, but there are plenty of other games coming out this holiday, games that I actually have a basic understanding and competence in. We'll see. For now, KoF XIII takes higher priority.
From a guy who pumped hundreds of dollars into the arcade MvC machines at my college back in the day - No, I won't be getting UMVC3.
I was hardcore pumped for MvC3. When my PS3 died an hour into playing MvC3, I went to EB to buy a brand new PS3. Retail. Paying 10% sales tax and all. I -never- purchase stuff in a brick and mortar and I -never- go to an EB. That's how much I wanted to play this game. I played it hardcore for the first week and then just... stopped. Something about it rubbed me wrong, and I'm not sure what it is.
Where's the option for "I never bought MvC3 and want Ultimate"? I borrowed MvC3 from a friend and I really like it, and some of the dumb shit is going away in that game so I'll be really interested in this.
She-Hulk c.H being nerfed makes me sad though. But as long as the charge/spencer's angled wire -> clothesline works, I'm A-Okay.

It was probably the foreboding feeling in your subconscious that there was totally going to be a glorified 30 dollar DLC disk six months later. I'd feel unsettled, too.
I bought MvC3. I was very angry that they were doing this, and I swore that I would resist it.
So yes. Probably not until it goes on sale, but yeah. I can't resist. Not after I've seen footage of Frank West, Phoenix Wright, and Rocket Raccoon.
Too many other game in that time period to play. I will wait for King of Fighters 13 to get my fighting game fix.
I will be getting this, but I hate it and everything it represents!
I'm gonna try and be the best CAPTAIN AMERIKAH EVAR! at least to my standards...
Yup and gonna be exposing mother fuckers with mags storm skrull. Also gonna take a couple days off of everything and just play it.
I would buy it, and I knew that this was going to happen so I'm excited but sadly my fightstick broke a few months ago :(
I'll get it eventually though.

The problem is that I'm strapped for cash. If I were to order a new joystick(30$) then I'll have to skip out on Saints row or Skyrim or Assassin's Creed etc etc. I'm pretty sure I'll have it fixed by the time Street Fighter X Tekken comes out though.

ya man street fighter X gems.
Despite abandoning any attempt to play competitively halfway through vanilla's lifetime, I will give another try.
Then I will abandon it for 2012.@ThePhantomnaut said:

I think she hulk will be fine. losing the range on the c.H is a real bummer, but she got super armor on her chariot, so she can still get in with assists. Only problem with that set up is that clothesline in the air does wallbounce now, so you'd have to chain it with l.wire or Wire hyper or bionic arm or...stuff, you'll be fine.Where's the option for "I never bought MvC3 and want Ultimate"?

The biggest problem I have about Ultimate is that they gave a bunch of useless new moves to people. Hsienko got a bunch of new shit to throw but Anki hou is still the slowest fireball start up in the game so you'll never use any of it. Hulk's new move is useless, She hulk's new move is useless, Spencer's new move is useless, C Viper's new move is useless, Chunli's new move is...useful, but only if you are a god at execution, Wolverine's new move is useless, this isn't a single new move in this game for existing character that has any sort of practical use. The only one that might be any good at all is Magnito's repulsor, attractor move, because the cooldown is so quick. Storm has the same move and it's useless for her because the cooldown takes so long, you can't do anything meaningful with it.
But yes, I will be upgrading. I'm just disappointed that a lot of the nerfs and buffs are so dumb. Thus far, Fanatiq has said it best.
A lot of dumb stuff replaced with OTHER KINDS of dumb stuff. But that's what Marvel is...so...
maybe ,a lot of other games coming out, plus school i might not have the time to put in. this was the case with vanillia as well. Also i want to get baack into street fighter 4
