[up]Well considering Capcom probably doesn't care about stories, I imagine a Marvel writing team would be handling this one.

As for the X-Men...yeah, this is a tough choice. I want them but I get it if Marvel tells them no. Not expecting Fanstastic Four characters either.

Why Marvel vs. Capcom 4 needs the X-Men.

Well-meaning but somewhat naive. Yeah, tons of gamers would be pissed off but Marvel's also shown they have the ability to have a hugely successful franchise without the x-Men once before. Plus if there really is an MCU focus as rumored that'd indicate they're going for a younger or more casual audience to begin with.

I hope the X-Men will be included but it honestly would not shock me at all if they aren't. There's a limited number of roster slots and Marvel has already generated a ton of successful new character IP in the 5 years since the last game.

I guess if we're going to have a story mode written by Marvel writers, it should be a writer from The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes. That show was awesome.

Really though, Classic!Mega Man or Mega Man X for the hypothetical MVC4?

reboot

oh no

the timeless continuity of Versus series

Also yes still don't listen to anything about Max says

The reboot is supposed to be for the sake of the gameplay, going back to the older Marvel vs Capcom 1 style of two characters and additional assist only characters. While i'm unsure about the title being rebooted (And I hate game reboot titles that are just the original game's title) I could very well see a gameplay reboot. Street Fighter V tried to streamline it's mechanics and attempt something like SF III after all.

Also, there wasn't anything that felt like talking out of his ass in that Max video. He was just reporting on rumours he had heard and adding some of his own thoughts that were all subjective. At no point did he state them as facts.

A corpse should be left well enough alone...

I would be opposed to bringing back one on one bouts, but I would like if they brought back the assist character mechanic. It'd be a nice way to sneak in characters who might otherwise not be suited as a fully playable fighter (the Wasp immediately comes to mind).

It would be nice to see a bunch of Capcom C and D listers come back via that mechanic, too. Popular ones would be easy DLC fodder, too.

It's possible to focus on the MCU without excising the X-Men.

LEGO Marvel Superheroes is a bit dated now that LEGO Avengers exists, but while it mostly used MCU characters when possible, the X-Men, Fantastic Four, Spider-Man, and other folks who hadn't shown up in the MCU at the time were still present as just their usual comic book selves.

(Which led to the hilarity of having classic Mandarin, Aldrich Killian, and Trevor Slattery's Mandarin all at the same time. The former two even serve as a Dual Boss at one point)

Lego Marvel is a game with tons and tons and tons of characters, though. Most of the Lego games delight in including as many characters - obscure or otherwise - as humanly possible. In contrast, fighters are series that have a small selection of characters, leading to crossovers like this one being highly representative of what's popular at the time - or more generally what their parent companies want to give a nod to.

I definitely can't see them dropping Wolverine or Magneto, though, especially given the latter's iconic curly moustache.

Well, we'll find out soon enough, won't we?

[up] I'm preparing for the inevitable whining about the lack of X-Men and story mode.

"Don't need it!"

#8788: Dec 3rd 2016 at 7:11:53 AM

[up] Is that "Don't need it" quote from somewhere in particular?

Because the "are your hearts" line I typed came from AKIRA, so where did "don't need it" come from?

[up]Angry Joe. When he reviewed Marvel vs Capcom 3 he made note of how barebones it was compared to Mortal Kombat 9. The inevitable reason was "Don't need it!"

[up] Oh. Well, hopefully the "no X-Men" rumor is bogus.

All will be known less than an hour and 30 minutes...

...Is he some kind of Japanese version of Ed Boon? Because that looks like something Ed Boon would do...

At this point, I am fairly certain that Ono is an actual real life troll disguised as a human, having departed from his bridge home to teach humanity the true power of trolling.

So that leaked logo that showed a "4" was fake. I find that hilarious.
