Marvel Vs Capcom: Infinite

Lex Luthor II

Lord of Lightning
This game is really, really fun. It is so fast, and there is WAY more depth than I would have imagined. It does make Injustice seem slow and shallow by comparison. I've only played NRS games seriously in the last 5 years, never got into these games, and I'm glad I did.

What I've learned so far is you must think of your two fighters as one fighter. The switch system is great to: cover unsafe stuff, to extend combos, to mixup. I use THOR and hulk, and a 5000 combo I regularly do off easy hit confirmable jabs starts with THOR, switches in hulk, and ends with THOR again. I have a few of those, and it seems the best people I see online are always tagging people in. For hulk his combos are easy and powerful, but not very long, and I almost always call in THOR in the middle to extend them. A lot of the mixups I have as THOR I can't really extend unless I call in hulk.

There's still much I am learning and don't know yet, but it's a lot of fun.

Anyone know if there is a way to cross up, like when I airdash over their head towards the opposite side in their back, can I turn around and attack? It just attacks the same direction, never turning around towards them.

I'm still unsure about the tag system, does your tagged in character automatically attacks mid combo? Do you instantly attack with your choice of attacks? Because I've noticed on occasions I can choose but others my tagged opponent auto hits.

Doesn't automatically attack but will follow thru on the last input(s) put in before the tag out, so you can easily input a special move and hit the tag button and your tagging out character will complete that action before jumping out.

Edit: Completely missed your point on the tagging in character, sorry i meant your tagged out character can continue your actions, your tagged in character can begin their inputs mid dash into the screen.

Check out that video I linked. He talks about the super jump (down+up) canceled low to the ground that will auto-correct.

So.. It looks like MvCI DOES NOT support legacy sticks? Im googling and finding absolutely nothing but people posting it doesn't.

Im sorry, but that is a load of fucking horseshit. I know I can buy a converter, but I shouldn't have too. I know this is partly Sony's fault for not including native backwards compatibility, but pretty much EVERY other fighting game, INCLUDING SFV, provides this. So a 60$ game now becomes closer to 100$ + wait time for the converter, or, buy a whole new 200$ stick when my current one is perfect in every regard.

/salt.

That is extremely annoying. I know the game is supposed to be really pad friendly, and I guess that's the route I should go, its just.. well, its shitty.
What legacy stick do you have? For my universal Hitbox, I have to hold 1+3 when I plug it in and the PS4 reads it; I just have to reset it every 8 minutes, which is really no big deal. Not sure if other sticks have that feature.

It's all so very confusing.

Qanba Q4. It has a switch for ps3 or Xbox/PC but requires legacy drivers to work on PS4 games.

Not sure what to do. I watched Rommaler play MvCI on PC today and be unable to find a match at all.. it's dead as a door nail on PC already.

I have the less than legit copy about done downloading and I'll be able to try it out and see. Maybe it will translate to pad better than I think it will and be more fun than I expect. The fun factor is all I really care about. I play inj2 on pad so I'm equal on both more or less.

Converter seems to run about 40$, but I can just buy a universal PS4 board for like 60-70$.. and since my qanba uses the usual Sanwa universal stuff it might just be smarter to buy a whole new board and blah blah.

We'll see. I just realllllly don't want to drop the money on the game then a other 40-300$ on converters/boards/sticks and then not play the game or something.

Seriously, it is a smack in the face not to include legacy support.

Yeah, it really is bullshit. This is 2017 Capcom. Seriously?!

Yes, you can use a technique some people are calling the "hyper hop."

It's performed by press down, up, down.

It's almost like cancelling a super jump.

Welp, I have my training mode only version for the time being until i decide if Im buying or not.

A quick run through of characters and I REALLY like Zero*, Dante, Jedah, Hawkeye

Kinda like Gammora(spelling?), Thanos, Rocket, Capt Marvel, Strider

Havent messed with Nova or Dormamu or X yet.

*Zero will almost beyond a doubt be on my team.


So, Id like to avoid just playing the hyper popular characters, but to be kinda truthful, the roster sorta blows. Some of the characters just arent interesting to me. I'm considering Zero/Dante but that sounds cliche as fuck and its probably obnoxiously overplayed, though I dont know for sure. Maybe Zero/Gammora, or Zero/Jedah, even though Jedah is REALLY heavily played. Zero/Rocket could be interesting.

Shrug.

Im gonna try to find some BnBs tomorrow for Zero and grind out a little execution and try to find a second.

We're all from Earthrealm. If not, cool pic brah.

Zero, thanos, or gamora are good starters imo. Dante is swaggy and good af but dunno if I'd start with him because he can be a little overwhelming. If you do want to use him though, Zero/Dante is very good and not overplayed.

Started messing with Big Bodies yesterday and Running Nemesis/Thanos with the Reality Stone.

Turns out a lot of people don't like fighting big body characters lol

On a note about the stones reality feels like the strongest at the moments and mind stone as the weakest, has anyone found some really good use for it? Seems like Mind is all about the Infinity storm

I LOOOOVE Big characters that hit hard! Easy combos to learn and big damage! Nemesis is fun to play but still trying to find who would partner well with him to balance out his slow speed.

Im trying to master the TIME stone with Nemesis and ooooooo baby thats damage!
