Why People Are Hating On Marvel Vs. Capcom: Infinite – And Why They’re Wrong

Fans haven't been too crazy about some of the changes to the Marvel vs. Capcom game. WWG explains why they may be wrong to judge too quickly.

So the people who complain that

- the game doesn't seem have a lot of the beloved X-Men and Fantastic Four characters from past games.
- the game going back to 2v2 battles instead of the 3v3 that was widely accepted in the past two games.
- the game abandoning its comic book aesthetic for an art style that's less unique and unidentifiable.
- some crucial story mode characters are already being announced to locked behind a DLC paywall.
- many assets are being reused and there not being as many newcomers.
- some characters being extremely off model
- changing Rocket Racoon's accent from cockney to Brooklyn.

are unwarranted? I'll eventually get the game, but these complaints do hold weight and kept be swept under the rug.

I think a lot of your points prove superficial.

-The lack of beloved characters doesn't equal a bad game. It means lost nostalgia that's about all, also the only FF characters they ever had in the series were Dr. Doom (who can stand outside of the FF) and Super Skrull (who can also stand outside of the FF).
-What's wrong with 2v2 again? Just because the last 3 entries were 3v3 doesn't mean it has to stay that way. Especially with the roots of the game actually going back to 1v1 see children of the atom ironically an xmen game.)
-Art isn't a linear platform, so why is it now that they want to try a new art style it's worth complaining over? Things move forward not backwards. Even when inspired by the past it makes it better not the same.
-What exactly is a "crucial story mode character"? is that a way of saying because they are plot heavy for a game they are critical to the gameplay? If people hate the concept of the paywall maybe they should've taken to the SFV model of play to unlock as well as pay to unlock. There were options with that and I'm sure if it was popular would've become a future model of fighters.
- Are we really going to complain about re-used assets when there are 5 previous games that re-used the same assets up until MvC3?
-I'm not sure what this extremely off model characters thing is because I looked at the screenshots the internet posted and played the demo. And, all I noticed was the demo wasn't finished for an unfinished game. Why exactly are we complaining about that? Don't all pre-release demoes do this? Either they are extremely better looking then retail or they look awful up until they go gold right? Why are we having pre-launch meltdowns again?
-Complaining over an accent? Next thing you know we will lose are shit over Voice actors changing in a game like Metal Gear V >.>

Even if we say they are "warranted" They are hardly worth trashing the game over which has been showing to have an extremely polished system and great looking characters. Here's hoping we don't see the same broken loop combos like we did in UMVC3 though!

True really can't judge yet, haven't even played the damm game yet!
I'll reserve my judgement till I accually play it, big fighting game fan.

link2Dpast3228d ago (Edited 3228d ago )

PREACH!!! Can't stand this new gen and it's gamers. Gamers nowadays seem so entitled ,spoiled and the rather just live through the lie because the truth burns like a STD. Face it MvsC will never be as good as part 2, I see the new DBZ fighter and I think "why the hell didn't they go with that style" I loved the sprites from the Olden days

Nintendew3228d ago

MvsC2 was the best one I think.
Ken
Sakura
Morgan I used mostly

Wolverine
Spider-Man
Venom second team

When I seen DBZ fighter instantly thought of MvsC2, hell yeah prob gonna buy that! Vegeta is a must for me!

Nintendew3228d ago

At least gonna have Mega Man/Zero combo, FINALLY!
But no ken.........that sucks.

link2Dpast3227d ago

My team was always the core of Guile, magneto, and any random 3rd character. preferably someone with an extremely annoying side attack lol iceman for sure, that ice bean was hella fast

Activemessiah3229d ago

All I see is people making excuses for this PoS of a game... The fact that people are out there defending the absence of the X-Men because we suddenly developed Amnesia. FoH.

TheOttomatic913228d ago

So have legit complaints that the devs aren't answering is now considered to be hating? Jesus Christ get your head out of your ass.

Krysis3228d ago

LMAO, best comment all day.

LordJamar3228d ago

there is a thin line between complaints and dumb nit picking

Derceto3228d ago

Elda3228d ago

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing26d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Tanktopmaster9226d ago

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit26d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing26d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9226d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
