Launches on December 1st. All playable characters have been revealed.

Finally, the return of Tony's red pants.

No Carol, no care

>>150976133 (OP)
>Jean Grey
Fucking laaaaaaaaame, she's always a good damn wasted slot for any other actual character that could've been added

>>150976133 (OP)
Tony was pretty obvious. Phoenix is a bit of surprise but not one I'm too excited for. Glad to see best iron man suit though.

>>150976474
She's a better choice than COSMIC Ghost Rider. Who should have just been a proper Ghost Rider.

>>150976598
Jean Grey will never be a better choice then any other character, she's the absolute most boring Marvel heroine. Like not even awful or bad just booooooring.

>>150976133 (OP)
Cyclops would have been cool with all the MVC2 references, he’ll probably be DLC since the TMNT game had a lot

>>150976695
Yeah I'm a bit surprised he wasn't. Him or Psylocke. I do wonder how they're gonna screw us to the wall with DLC

>>150976133 (OP)
SPIDER-MAN
SPIDER-MAN

>I do wonder how they're gonna screw us to the wall with DLC

*cough*

>>150976904
Get fist fucked you prolapsed anus

>>150976929
Thanks for proving my point!

>>150976133 (OP)
I hate how Cosmic Ghost Rider ruins the early-90's nostalgia that everyone else in the character lineup supports. Putting a shitty mash-up meme character from the last decade really hurts my hype for this, ngl.

>>150977147
Yeah, might as well have had
>Phoenix Force Old Logan
>Captain Universe Spider-man
> Space Knight Venom

If they really wanted to go with the Cosmic theme

>>150977511
You forgot Captain Universe Phoenix Force Space Knight Paul With Two Infinity Gauntlets.

>>150976133 (OP)
Why they don't publish a synergy comic with this
Would have been awesome if they just called Dan Abnett to write a comic where the cast go up against Annihilus

>>150976133 (OP)
I guess calling it Annihilation wouldn't sell

>>150977147
I'm pretty baffled myself. It's like they couldn't decide whether to include Ghost Rider or Punisher to round out the popular 90s characters and split the difference with Cosmic Frank, not realizing how antithetical it was to the time period.

>>150976474
Should have been Cyclops, I guess they wanted another girl

>Cosmic Ghostrider instead of the spooky earthly one.
>Beta Ray Bill instead of Thor.
>Instead of Hulk we get his cousin and Venom despite the latter usually being a violent asshole.

>>150977833
They still believe movie synergy will be more succesful even tho videogames are a far more popular medium. Altough the recent Rivals synergy shows it might start to change.

>>150977147
>>150977955
Are you glossing over the fact that they already lost the 90s only factor by adding Phyla-Vell and Rocket being passed off his more modern version? Sure the game is centered around 90s nostalgia but they've already took liberties way before Cosmic Ghost Rider was announced.

>>150976133 (OP)
No Cyclops no buy.
IDGAF

>>150976133 (OP)
wow thats.... an awful roster

why marvel insists in Cosmic Ghost Rider?

>>150976133 (OP)
I've been pretty happy with the roster up until the last two reveals, Phoenix is cool and I'm glad to have an X-Man but her moveset looks too similar to Nova's, same deal with Black Panther looking too much like Wolverine, I wish he used more of the vibranium ninja stuff from EMH. Iron Man's a boring but expected choice, I could live without him but I can live with him too. Cosmic Ghost Rider... why? None of the other earth heroes needed to be "Cosmic'd up" and OG Ghost Rider took out Galactus in the 90s FF cartoon so he fits both the 90s aesthetic and the cosmic setting.

>>150976133 (OP)
That's such a shitty superhero lineup aside from a couple and none of the women shows cleavage, hard pass

>Cosmic Ghost Rider? Why?
Would you rather have Ghost Rider 2099?

>>150978812
>OG Ghost Rider took out Galactus in the 90s FF cartoon so he fits both the 90s aesthetic and the cosmic setting.
Except Marvel has gone out of their way to make Ghost Rider incapable of beating Galactus after one of his cooler moments outside of comics.

>>150978992
Yes

>>150978854
>none of the women shows cleavage,
The TMNT game didn't have cleavage either, and it was made by the same guys who made this one, tbf.

>>150978854
The opinions of dumb coomers are irrelevant

>>150976629
Jessica Jones exists

>>150978854
Based

>>150978992
Yes

>>150979300
no she doesn’t

>>150978091
Phylla at least has the Annihilation connection

>>150976133 (OP)
No one even knows who 99% of these characters are wtf.

>>150979906
> Storm, Cap, Iron man, Spiderman, Venom, Wolverine, Rocket, Jean(not popular but well known)
People absolutely know who these characters are

>>150979906
Pretending to be retarded is still being retarded.

>>150979957
>Lists the 1% people know
>Thinks she made a point
LOL

>>150980149
you're awful at math

>>150976133 (OP)
1993 Modular Iron Man is back?

>>150976133 (OP)
Everyone else is very 1995, then Cosmic Frank is there.

It should be Darkhawk!

>>150980204
I hope he gets in as dlc and he should have been in game from the get go

>>150978854
Seethe, asshole.

Would love if they added Howard and base his moves off of the mc2 version of him

I played the demo and sadly didn't really enjoy Spider-Man, his moveset is kinda weird, but most of the roster is pretty fun to play.

>>150977841
It would, but marvel is ran by out of touch spinsters abd queers.
Look at that fuck awful lineup.

>>150980204
>It should be this character that only 2 people in the entire world know!
So glad game studios aren't run by people like you

>>150980394
They have dyke captain marvel instead of gennis, no binary, and Ironman who long ago stopped being cool up front next to phoenix eho has never been a cosmic character nor has ever been shown as powerful on that level in her terribje adaptations.
I can go on.

>>150980427
Yes and people know who they are.

quit acting retarded.

>>150979300
Don't remind me

>>150980493
No one knows Nova, no one knows Phyla, no one knows space ghost rider, no one really knows phoenix the fuck are wolverine and venom gonna do?

Dud they just throw whatever the old cunts in charge and popular characters into this and call it a day?

>>150980559
>I don't actually read

>>150980427
>>150980559
No one gives a shit about Gennis and Phyla is well known thanks to Annihilation, and she was in a few Cartoons afterwords.
>No one knows Nova, no one knows Phyla, no one knows space ghost rider, no one really knows phoenix
Nova was in Cartoons and MvC, and you really want to act like nobody knows about Phoenix, only odd one is Cosmic Ghost Rider but they just wanted a spaced theme version.

Just admit you don't know what you're talking about and move on.

>>150980559
The question is would people know who theyvare? The normals won't.
All trash left is being within people's minds and an appearance in the public that is recognizable and is well liked.

Most of them who aren't avengers are unknown, unlike, ir cant sell. And this being cosmic with the phoenix there means its just random dumb bullshit.


Its like an AI did it. Its technically cirrect but there's so .ich wrong with it it feels alien and wrong.

>>150978057
>Venom
From what I understand he's a boss in the game and unlockable playable boss characters are my one kryptonite in videogames, so I don't mind it.
There's something cool about wiping out the room full of enemies as a guy you just fought or fighting the guy who you just used to beat the shit out of dozens of mooks with. Not to mention mirror matches. I love mirror matches.

>>150980662
>And this being cosmic with the phoenix there means it's just random dumb bullshit.
nta but how is Phoenix who of of the major X-Men conflicts is fighting the Shi'ar, which are a major cosmic themed factor.

>>150980628
A handful of comic peopke kniw her and if those people only gay chick's like her. Shes fucking shit and the normies won't accept her because she'll just be another captain marvel and everyone has lez fatigue
Grnnus looks distinctive abd crazed space sociopath super soldier captain marvel is an i wresting wild card


Nova was in no popukar cartoons
Phoenix live action adaptations drowned out her first xmen cartoon intro and no one wants to touch 97 now.

Look. You are fucking retarded if you think that ridiculous random as fuck line up will work for normies.

They arent using carol danvers or nova as the lead for this for fucks sake.

>>150980710
Phoenix eats solar systems and suns. She is a galactus and celestial problem.
Shes not some random energy flinging bitch. Shes HER.

Its like having a beat em up spiderman and friends game and having Thanos on the friends side.

>>150980719
Except Phyla isn't Captain Marvel in this, and even if Nova isn't popular in the Cartoon since it was Sam and everyone got to know Dick Ryder in MvC3.
>Phoenix live action adaptations drowned out her first xmen cartoon intro and no one wants to touch 97 now.
But this is about recognizable characters and not if she's drowned out and you're on some copium if you think no one wants to touch 97.

>They arent using carol danvers or nova as the lead for this for fucks sake.
So, you're just a Carol ESL who wants her in everything, then.

>>150980773
Jean has been in many games as Phoenix, and no one bats an eye or complains she's a Galactus or celestial issue.

>Its like having a beat em up spiderman and friends game and having Thanos on the friends side.
You don't want to open that can of worms, and besides, Jean is only a villain when she's Dark Phoenix

>>150980719
>They arent using carol danvers
Nobody gives a fuck about Carol

Cap's been the most fun to use of the demo roster, he's a balanced character but not in the shitty middle-of-the-road sense, but more that he has an answer for everything and is pretty good at all of them. Phyla Vell gets an honorable mention with her projectile>dash combo and her DoT, but I was pretty damned disappointed with Spider-Man, his flow feels kind of fucked and his aerial game stinks.

>>150980949
No one really knows or talks about nova. The cool one.

Oh really. Show me the firebird phoenix version in mainstream adaptations then?

Phyla was shit even when well known and still being published. But you think she'll land? Captain manvers 2.0 angrier dyke edition complete with penis stand in sword? You think that shit will land?

>>150980993
>that pic
The fuck?
This am the jokings correct?

Bring me F4 DLC where we all remember where Annihlus got his start!

In X-Men Legends 2 one of Jean's Phoenix-based powers destroys the knocked out enemies' bodies before they disappear off the map naturally.
Apparently it's somehow not murder because bosses who can resurrect (Stryfe and Beast thanks to Mister Sinister fuckery. And I guess destroying Garokk since he still ends up your prisoner) can still come back from the dead, though IIRC they become invisible since you've destroyed their bodies.
Wonder if this game would do something similar.

>>150981459
>>No one really knows or talks about nova. The cool one
And which cool one, you're talking about since the most well known Nova is in the game.

Also, you've been really focused on Phyla-Vell being a gay more then the fact more people know about her way more then Grnnus just from the cartoons alone which is what they majority of the roster is known for if not from MCU.

>>150981491
You get F4 but you can only pick one out of the four, which one you will pick?

>>150980662
>The question is would people know who theyvare? The normals won't.

I never liked the argument that characters shouldn't be used because they're unknow because how else are they going to become known if people don't get to see them in other things. It's a self perpetuating problem. Nobody but the popular characters get pushed but because nobody else gets a chance to be popular nobody ever is. And with how Rivals is getting buzz for it's out there pics I don't see why other game shouldn't try more.

>>150980719
>Carol fag can't type and is a retarded ESL.
I shouldn't be surprised.

Cosmic Ghost Rider is the most baffling decision here for me.
I hated when the TMNT game used Karai (at first at least, I warmed up to that version due to her not having the same annoying flaws other versions of the character have), but at least Karai first appeared in the comics at the time of the cartoon still being on the air.
This game really goes for the retro aesthetic and pushes this gay modern shit for whatever reason.

>>150981879
Meh, it fulfills both Ghost Riderfags and Frankfags getting their guy in the game, just as long as he isn't dogshit to use then I'm cool with it. My only real niggle with the starting roster is that there's nobody from the Fantastic Four to represent the team.

>>150981639
Crystal

>>150976133 (OP)
I have Venom, I have Wolverine, the rest don’t matter. I look forward to getting to try it soon. Would like to see Moon Knight get in there though.

Cosmic GR is here because normalfags don't really give a shit about outside of 'cool flaming skeleton biker'.
The truth is, outside of GotG, Galactus, Thanos and Silver Surfer, Cosmic Marvel is very 'who' tier stuff for normalfags.

>>150976474
Half the choices are shit.

>Black Panther
>Rocket Raccoon
>Phyla over Wendell
>Storm
>Cosmic Ghost Rider
>JEEEEAAAAAAN
None of these characters should be in the game.

>>150977147
Again, a bunch of characters ruin that. If they wanted Phoenix they should have used Rachel or given Jean her Lee design. Rocket and Black Panther. Bill over Thunderstrike, etc.

>>150980394
Yeah dude, you're right. Those Capcom games failed because nobody knew who Shuma-Gorath or Blackheart were. Popular and well known IPs (I say this instead of characters) only.

>>150982102
Shuma-Gorath is a cool tentacle monster and Blackheat is a cool dark satan from hell. Sell me on Darkhawk because he comes off as more of a Z-lister compared to the other two.

>>150983375
He looks cool. Nobody is going to be turned off from buyng the game because Darkhawk is there you dipshit. You have Wolverine, Captain America and Spider-Man and that's pretty much enough.

>>150983496
Meh, all you can hope for is if there's enough of a demand for dlc for him since this game will no doubt have them after release.

>>150981926
>Meh, it fulfills both Ghost Riderfags and Frankfags getting their guy in the game
In a way that makes neither side happy.

>>150981926
>there's nobody from the Fantastic Four to represent the team.
They're gonna Ultimate Alliance 3 this and make them the focus of a whole DLC.

>>150978057
At least Bill was around in the 90s. Phyla-Vell and Cosmic Ghost Rider shouldn't be there.

>>150983882
Rocket shouldn't either. He was essentially a forgotten character prior to Annihilation. If they wanted a cosmic character from the time period they could have just gone with Drax since he was around as part of the Infinity Watch.

>>150976133 (OP)
She-Hulk looks like shit.

>>150979957
Only Spider-Man and maybe Venom matters.

>>150976133 (OP)
No Nick Fury, No Punisher, No Hulk (green/red) or Skaar, not even Deadpool. What the hell is wrong with you people!

>>150984520
>No Punisher
Should've just done a 1:1 of Frank from the Capcom Punisher beat-em-up. If they're going to have Wolverine, Storm, Spider-Man and Venom all do callbacks to their MvC moves, should've gone all the way.

>>150984407
I was gonna say Rocket, but he still technically existed since he was created in the 70s, he just wasn't used in the 90s. Phyla-Vell wasn't created until the early 00s and Cosmic Ghost Rider is a 2010s creation even if Frank and Ghost Rider have been around.

>>150984760
You know one character I'm surprised isn't in but maybe could be DLC? Sleepwalker. Unique character, cool design, would be a neat cult pick, Robert Kirkman's favorite character.

>>150984520
>>150984573
Outside of Punisher being far from cosmic themed as you can get, Rocket is already the Gun guy who shoots a lot.

>>150983671
>In a way that makes neither side happy.
How many cared when Capcom used Super Skull instead of any of the Fansatic Four for MvC3?

>>150980265
Look, it didn't work for Donald and it's not going to work for you, either.

>>150976133 (OP)
Not a bad game, though I still prefer the Turtles one a bit more. Gameplay in this feels clumsier. Or maybe I just need to git gud.

>>150980773
>Its like having a beat em up spiderman and friends game and having Thanos on the friends side.
Best we could do is Namor.
https://youtu.be/x8zbtPpDm7c

>>150976133 (OP)
They gave Tony his entire MVC2 move set from the shield to the divekick knee to the obvious Proton canon

>>150984520
No Punisher
Well kind they kind of do it just Cosmic Ghost rider/frank Castle

>>150985089
Super Skrull is actually cool. Is the difference. At the time people actually were pretty understanding of the choice. Especially since Annihilation was still hot in our minds.

>>150978854
Based

>>150985019
>Robert Kirkman's favorite character.
Damn I didn't know he was so based

>>150986947
So, what's the issue with Cosmic Ghost Rider? Most normies I've heard talk about the game think he's cool and is alright with the idea of Frank becoming a Space rider with a flaming skull. Only ones upset so far, simply want normal Ghost Rider or Punisher, and from what I've seen, it's been here that hates it the most.

>>150987097
I think just a year or two back, Kirkman was doing an interview and said Sleepwalker would beat Omni-Man. Everyone gets attached to some random character from when they were 12 or 13.

>>150986912
It's Iron Cannon now.

>>150976133 (OP)
She-Hulk looks like a dude in a wig.

>>150976598
donny cates won. you lost.

So clearly the roster is a mess, but who can we mod onto the shitty characters? I'm actually kinda hoping they split the color palettes to their own sprite sheet instead of saving space so that we can have mods that just "palette swap" though, the voicelines for tag-ins are pretty specific. Regardless, I have some of my own picks.

She-Hulk into The Thing (moveset would work well)

Captain Marvel over Pheonix or Nova, but I'm not a Richard Rider fan

Obviously Thor over Beta Ray William

Would be nice to see them add Rom down the line. It'd take moving mountains but he'd fit so well in this game.

>>150990679
Mod Spider-Man into Miles/Paul (circle the one that pisses you off the most)

>>150976858
takes a dump in a coffee can

>>150980687
Sucks how those bosses turn into pussies once they join the playable roster, but everybody so far seems really op in this game, so that's ok.

>>150991594
He complains to his landlord
he's dismissed and ignored

>>150992085
Streets of Rage 4 generally did it well.
I think Shiva in SOR4 is cool. Estel is too (gameplaywise at least, can't stand her design)
Max is far too slow for my liking though, so I can't tell if the character sucks or I suck at playing him.
