    How does one go about learning how to play Marvel?

    Bought it on a whim yesterday but I have absolutely no idea how this game works. Seems like there's no links? Any nice tutorial vids or recommended characters I should pick up to give myself an idea?

    I asked a similar question of the lads back a few pages and the found the discussion that followed to be quite interesting.

    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=81048053

    I'd give that a read and ask any follow-up questions for stuff that doesn't make sense.

    Understand how to game works and its mechanics

    Pick 3 characters, generally High tier or ones you like Do Mission mode to get an idea of preference

    Start from there and learn how the game works.

    Casuals is without a doubt the best thing to attend to improve your game, it's where you'll find some of the best and most knowledgeable players from time to time.

    also make sure to watch matches online. just by watching matches you get an idea how you are suppose to use most of the cast. look up "Big Two" "Thursday Night Runback" or "EVO UMVC3" on youtube for tournament matches from the U.S or check out the Irish community by going here

    http://www.youtube.com/user/BrianVonDoom?feature=g-user-u

    just to warn you, even though this game may not have links as in Street Fighter i believe this game has a bigger learning curve and is tougher to learn due to the fact that so much can happen during a match and simply you have to learn off 3 characters off the bat. but if you have the patience to go through all these learning steps, theres a chance you might really enjoy it.

    also here are some tutorial videos i found just by typing "UMVC3 beginners guide" into youtube...

    (this one is from the 1st version of Marvel vs Capcom 3, "Ultimate" being an updated version, but the controls are the same

    How to Escape the UWT Reset

    untitled-1-1333563353.jpg

    I took everyone's characters of choice in the IFGC into the lab and looked for different methods in escaping the dreaded UWT. As i've promised over the 2 years i've been playing this game with you guys, i'll be listing how to do it with each character here.

    note: 1: if your Character can either fly, double jump or air-dash i won't be listing then because you already know yourself thats how that specific character gets out of the situation.
    2: -> = tech toward, F = free, T = correct timing needed

    Wolverine: -> S (F)
    She-Hulk: -> S (F)
    Iron-Fist: -> S (T)
    Hawkeye: -> S (F)
    Haggar: -> S (i've also been hit by Pipe before so i know thats possible) (T)
    Dr Strange: -> S (T)

    Chris: -> H (T)
    Akuma: Demon Flip
    Spencer: Tarzan Swig
    Wesker: Teleport
    Hulk: I've been hit by Air Smash before but couldn't to it in training mode...
    Spider-Man: Maximum Spider, DHC to 2nd character (pretty annoying)

    Nemesis: N/A
    P.Wright: N/A (hehehehe:P)

    there you have it, hope this will help you guys if you ever have to fight against any other random Spidey player that you may come across in an international tourny.

    Edit: I actually managed to hit a Spiderman player out of his throw with Wright ONCE with a jumping light. But I just don't think they were doing the combo as well as you usually do.

    if the Spidey player uses an OTG assist, then any character should be close enough to tech forward and air throw


    (4:10 is an example)

    i now end with a standing H after a ground bounce which causes Spidey to be pushed back a bit. that with the start up animation of UWT (he jumps back) puts him outside of throw range so you need a fast/long reaching normal.

    Yassar: My question is this how many copies has the game sold up til now, i know you may be reluctant to give numbers but if thats the case sir can you atleast tell us if the game (UMVC3) was a flop? considered still to be a flop or actually over time it has become a hit?

    Svensson: As you know, I can not divulge sales figures here. Only IR can do that.

    That said, I'm satisfied with sales at this point and it continues to sell actively.
    Guess that explains the cracked discs:pac:

    So if anyone ever wants an update to happen to this game, whether it's for fine-tuning, mechanic tweaking or giving lawyers everywhere a slightly improved survival rate in armed combat, give this a shot.

    http://shoryuken.com/forum/index.php?threads/marvel-update-twitter-campaign.174522/#post-7891236

    Marvel have been the biggest obstacle to updates due to their licensing agreements, but the Marvel guys on twitter are acknowledging these openly - my own tweet got retweeted by the @MarvelBlip address. It only takes a few moments, but please do keep it polite, respectful and enthusiastic. If they see enough people care about this game, then we might just hear of something around Evo.

    Wow, this is a lot more blown out than I thought it'd be only after one day.

    Wonder if it'll catch fire. I expect Max'll probably make an announcement video any minute begging folks to barrage Marvel folk.

    Still, I'd love an update. If anything to get more people playing the game again.

    If you have a scanner, could I ask you to send me the section on Trish? I doubt it has anything I don't know, but I'm trying to exhaust all my resources. Even ones I don't have access to, lol. Or if the version online is somewhere outside of the Pirate Bay, maybe you could link it? I really have searched extensively and without results.

    An update would be much appreciated alright. Nerf that damn male lawyer and buff the green one!

    Have to say though, I think for the game that's in it a lot of people are still playing!

    Oh silly me, I should rephrase myself:

    It'd be awesome if more people played it online again. For someone who has no easy access to play casuals, that'd be nice, because the huge majority of online players are from Mexico/America. I remember back when Ultimate came out I never had to wait long to get a close enough match from Ireland/UK and even France.

    Okay, I'm just gonna force debate on this subject since the cheap teams expire tomorrow, and I wanna be cheap. :P
    So far, the confirmed marvel players for Cannes are:
    Doyler, Nutrient, Force_Edge, Lythero, Dark Talant and myself (since Naphiel is a maybe). Out of this, we should be trying to compose a Team A and Team B. Just going from teams played, I would suggest the following;
    Nurtient, Doyler, Lythero as Team A, myself, Dark Talant and Force_Edge as Team B. Does anyone have any legit demands with regards team swaps? I wanna pay up for my team before the cheap registration expires tomorrow.

    Kurama Tengu posted about it the generic Cannes topic.

    Basically today is the last day where you can register for tournaments and get a discounted rate.

    I believe it applies to all singles tournaments and 3V3 teams.

    Not sure about national 5V5, that might fall under their "events".

    So I was watching a Max video implying Capcom are asking people to contact Marvel to build up interest for a new Marvel based on the fact that UMvC3 sold poorly at the start but is a game that refuses to STOP selling because of its huge tournament presence.

    Is this Max being Max or what's the story behind it?

    I think the 5v5 is sorted out at the venue, so that's no biggie. I'll register the team with me as captain later tonight, someone on Team A should be ready to pay up by tonight, since the price difference is a tenner per person to 15 quid per person.

    Also, amusing team names.
    For Team A, I would suggest Shielding Pipes of Justice :D
    As for Team B, I was thinking of Broken Tier Characters (considering our line up :P ) Since our teams would have a lot of overlap in Team B, we can sort out who gets to play what when we get there.

    thats pretty much it. ever since all of the DLC has been released Marvel players have been asking for a patch/update for new characters and additional balancing, despite the fact that the guys at capcom and marvel saying that there wont be anything new for the game and that its "done".

    But a year has passed and the people now want a balance patch more than ever since now we know the game a lot better. as mentioned the sales prove that people still have interest in the game despite the slow start. for the first time, instead of just saying no, the people at Capcom are saying "we know you want a new game/update so contact these guys at Marvel studios" which could mean something could actually happen since its up to Marvel if Capcom can be allowed to re-new their licence on Marvel characters to make this update happen.

    i'm totally up for it. all they need to do is tweak the top-tier and buff the low-tier, remove the TAC infinites and maybe adjust the damage output of the game so that players will have to rely on resets, add "Hitbox mode" that the Vita has and finally improve the netcode to make an awesome game.

    if they do add characters, i hope they just look at the poll at Capcom unity and get Gambit, Venom, Megaman X (i really dont care for MegaMan X) and i think Captain Commando was the final one to get those sales. people have also been asking for more female Marvel characters and more Capcom Villains.

    personally all i want is a balance patch... but more content like new characters are always welcome.

    Let Hsien cancel her pendulum anytime she wants, make airdash faster, give cr.h ability to OTG so she can combo off her airthrow and command grab into f+h combos and give S a better hitbox so it doesn't whiff after a long hitconfirm (especially when cr.h doesn't move forward enough after a st.L st.L st.M cr.M cr.H). Make cr.L a low.

    Also make Yolo Armour last longer.

    He's constantly saying it's safe. But it's never safe to share a room with Nutrient.

    This probably ought to be discussed in the Cannes thread so that more people going will probably be able to pitch in their ideas on how to go about it.
