Marvel vs Capcom 3

this is a horrible game

I beat Kim! Yay!

i need this game

I just played a couple of those missions and from the looks of it a arcade stick is needed to pull of those long combos really fast.controller is not cutting it.

Try using a controller that's been losing it's responsiveness after 4+ years of use.

so, I'm back... and I never once fought with ANY one of you online... lol

will standby 3 hours after this post.

I'll add you.

Don't tell me about what pad players can and can't do. If anything, you should be doing things faster because the distance to press buttons compared to moving a stick is much less.

I use a pad. I can do any combo that anyone on a stick can do. Don't blame the equipment. You're just not good with execution. Practice more instead of doing it three times and saying "Oh, I can't do it after 2 minutes, it must be the controller."

why you talking down on me? my first time playing the game and i already got you yelling at me.Its different compared to mk i'm still getting used to it.

Yeah, like any RPG game, each people have different "weapon" masteries. If one guy feels good with the pad, and decided to go master level with it, he can easily fight on par with the guys that has mastered the stick.

I play Mortal Kombat, Soul Calibur 4, MUGEN, AND BlazBlue and I seem to do just fine on MvC3.

thats you not me. i have the most experience in mk but give me time and i'll get better at mvc oneday.

Fair enough. Most of my experience is also from MK in addition to Soul Calibur. I won't say that I've completely mastered MvC3, but I'm so-so at it. When you can beat the single player arcade on it's hardest difficulty, you can probably count yourself as being a fairly competent player.

So i just played online and i noticed how other players like to use small people as a character.I played 3 different people and they all used zero, being that punches and stuff just go over his head.

Sentinel is pretty much your answer to fight off midget fighters. God, I wish they never inserted Sentinel....

Zero's not nearly as bad as Amaterasu with her whip out. Not only is she hard to hit, but she has range and speed on her side at that point too. You want to hit short fighters? Learn how to use Doom, Storm, and ,as Kaimax said, Sentinel. Those 3 have some of the better movesets to fight against midgets, imo.

This is the reason:


Like I said, don't do "a couple" of missions and go "Oh, I can't do it after a 'couple' of tries. I MUST NEED a stick."

Also... Sentinel is the worst character against small fighters. Mainly Zero, Amaterasu, Joe, and Arthur. The latter three can zone out Sentinel all day with beads, boomerangs, and axes. Zero can just rush him down all day. His huge hit box makes it hard for him to do anything against them not to mention Zero combos become that much deadlier.

However, the reality is that everyone you've probably played sucked with those characters. As such, it's obvious Sentinel, which is noob friendly can beat anyone.

Seriously... Sentinel is not that good. He's huge, has no life, and he's huge. What he has going for him is that Hyper Armor and huge damage potential. You play carefully, you can beat Sentinel easily.

Amaterasu in her bead most is a pretty bad mode for damage potential. You can't combo off her whip mode. It's bad. It does like, no damage, and you can easily jump over that... Seriously...

Also... People just use Zero because he's "cool". I have yet to find a person online who can use Zero properly. Well, I met one person, but he never charged his buster. The reason people should use Zero anyway is not because he's small but because he has rushdown and mixup potential. That's the way I use Zero.

Besides... For proper players, size means nothing. You'll have your combos and they'll work on every character no matter the size.


Jesus you guys make me just... facepalm.

There's no strategy to fight small characters. You play them like any other character. Obviously if you try "Sentinel only" combos, they'll drop. The only things you have to change when fighting smaller characters is the height with which you try to hit air overheads and the timing of instant overheads. Other than that, they're the same.


If there's anything you should be raging about, it's the priority on low shorts. Noobies can just spam that and you can't really do anything about it. =/

Spent some time in Training, and am now decent with more than just X-23, Joe, Chun-Li, and Felicia. Hulk's fun as hell, but I've got some kinks to work out of Dormammu, Trish, and Zero.

It sucks that I don't have XBL to see if I'm improving or if I'm still playing like it was day one. :[

So i'v been practicing and i'v taken a liking to captain america , wolverine , & akuma.I'v played with just Hokuto corpse and Trinidarkslayer. I have a question,how do you block to be exact? I'v asked a couple of others and they told me just pull and hold the analog stick left-back diagonal and it doesn't work. also with character switching TDS told me there is a preset button but when i messed around with the controller set up it wasn't there.

You block like this

See where the bottom is pointing? thats where you point your analog
