Poll: Megaman X in Marvel vs Capcom 3

[VGC USpartan VS]

I figured it was just me who wanted him in this game. I was wrong.Looks like he might just make it to DLC.

yes, I was mega unhappy about the fact they left him out. so many characters should not be in it.
Who cares about Tron bonne?

He should completely be in this game. That would at least give me a familar face in the hordes of capcom characters that I have never heard of.

 

[VGC USpartan VS]

Agreed. I had to Google Tron just to figure out who she was.

It doesn't make sense to have Tron Bonne but not megaman. That's like having Bowser, but not Mario in SSB.

 

[Irridium]

I want Gambit.

Where the hell is Gambit?!

 

[Radeonx]

I'm much more disappointed in that they left out Ruby Heart and Anmingo. Personally, I prefer Zero to Megaman, but that's just me.
There are so many characters from MvC 2 that I wished were in this though, so one can dream.

Tron's addition had nothing to do with megaman; They replaced what would be Megaman with Zero because Zero added more variation to the gameplay.

 

[ThatDaveDude1]

Where the Hell is Protoman for that matter?

 

[NeutralDrow]

I don't especially care. I was even appreciative that they were bucking tradition slightly by having Tron and Zero, without a Megaman. After all, they have Hsien-ko and Morrigan, but neither of the Darkstalkers face characters Dimitri or Donovan, Haggar but no Guy or Cody, Dormammu but no Dr. Strange, and the like.

To be honest I didn't realize that Zero was in the game (hadn't done my research, lol). But she still is an odd character from the Megaman series to include in a fighting game. She never... fights.

Well, they included her in MvC 2 as well, so that's probably why.
As to why they included her in the first place, it probably has to do wit them wanting to include unique character types. And given that she fights out of a robot and most of her attacks consist of using the robots she controls, I can see why they would implement her.

What did MVC2 have? Like 64 characters or something?

Ya, and only about 8 of them were actually viable in the long run, unlike MvC3 so far. They added more variety, that and they actually put some effort in this time around, 80% or so of MvC2's sprites were just ripped from other games.

Agreed. I had to Google Tron just to figure out who she was.

Tron Bonne is a fan favourite for both Megaman fans and MvC fans, which is why she made it in for the most part.

As for people arguing about Marvel characters, those were all Marvel's choice, not Capcom's. Marvel basically gives them a list of the characters they want, either by popularity, or by personal choice, and Capcom says if they can put them in or not, and adds some of their own suggestions to the table.

So as for no Venom in the game, its either because:
1)Marvel did not deem him popular enough, or didn't think he should be in the 3rd game.
or
2)Capcom couldn't make/create the character, or ran into production problems

woooo love megaman x

 

[Zachary Unkle]

I'm surprised he wasn't orignally in it.

 

[Lord Beautiful]

Whether he makes it in or not is unimportant to me. However, given his popularity, there might be at least a little more variety online should he make the roster. I'm getting tired of seeing so many Zeros, Akumas, and especially Sentinels. I swear, if you want to play a really powerful character, grow some balls and enlist Pheonix.

If you don't know who Tron Bonne is you clearly haven't played the best Megaman games (Legends). Also, the reason why X isn't in MvC3? He doesn't have the moveset. Also, Zero has the arm cannon, so putting X in would be pretty redundant wouldn't you say?

In terms of strategy/gameplay then yes, it's absolutely redundant.
In terms of "I really like Megaman X and would like to play as him" then no, not so much.

Also, Legends FTW

They need to bolster their ranks with a lot more characters.

What did MVC2 have? Like 64 characters or something?

There's nowhere near enough. That's my biggest complaint with the game.

I'd understand if the character had their own animated ending. But we don't even get that. We get some shitty 2 page faux comic strip. Most of which aren't funny or interesting.

Those 2 things really let me down.

My major annoyances in the missing persons department are Venom, Ken(you cannot have a game with Ryu and Akuma and leave out Ken, it's fucking illegal.), Gambit, Mephisto, Silver surfer, Bison, Dr Strange, Jedah, Apocalypse, Night crawler or Azazel.. Fuckit both.

There's a ton more.

I'll forgive them if DLC is free. Like hell it will be though.

It is funny that even during the SNES era we would get fighting games with 30+ characters on a cartridge but now that they have all the room in the world on DVD'd or Blu discs they start giving us less and less of them every game.

My brother bought MvC 3 and then downloaded MvC 2 and said that, yeah while it is prettier and flashier the roster sucks compared to 2. Damn DLC ruining potentially awesome games just to nickel and dime us. I'd rather them charge upfront for the DLC, making the game more expensive but give us all of the stuff they were going to cut or lock on the disc, but be honest with us and say "here's the other 25-50% of the game we were going to charge you for later"
