BA DUMP

Just watched this video of Tatsu vs Richard Nguyen. Holy shit was this video educational for me and the commentary was just hilarious to add icing on the cake. Sounds like Chris Rock commentated this

Here's a question, would learning to play this game on the vita make you just as good at the game on xbox/ps3? Is the port on the vita a good representation of the console version?

The vita version is exactly the same, plus a few extras in training mode as far as I'm aware. Only difficulty might be transferring from playing on a vita to playing on a ps3/xbox pad. No clue how different those are.

But you're not playing the starcraft 64 equivalent of marvel 3 if that's what you're worried about

Yeah, I just played it on the vita yesterday and it's really the same, but you'll have a harder time doing some things if you have bigger fingers like I do. I eventually just said "fuck it" and laid the vita on a table and pretended the controls were like a mini arcade stick's, it made it much easier for me to do the zero bnb's that I can do on the 360.

Hey guys, what do you think of tier lists in this game?

In Marvel 2, the game was so broken that in order to compete. You had to have a Sentinel in almost every situation and the X-men characters. So the tier lists were very legit.

But in Marvel 3, it seems more balanced so my real question in the end is do tier lists in this game act as a good guide or are they just full of crap and done by people with too much time on their hands making the tier lists fashionable nonsense?

I'd say the tier list in this game is as legit as any other fighting game. That is to say, it's also as full of crap as any fighting game. Including MVC2. Keep in mind that the Sentinel setup you're probably thinking about wasn't at all top tier for a while into MVC2's life. Tier lists generally represent what is understood about a particular fighting game at the time they are generated. But you should never look at any tier list and consider it a hard truth. All tier lists change over time as a game ages. And you should never look at top tier representing "broken as shit good" and everyone else as "can't compete" because that simply isn't the case for nearly every fighting game that comes out these days.

Sentinel was only the best (without argument) 4 years after the game (doom ruled 2001, 2002~2003 was a debate between Storm-sent, only after the unblockable did Sent Become undisputed). Still, a good low-tier dynamic team is still pretty decent in marvel 2. Hell, you had tron-proj assist that makes any team viable :D

Give marvel 3 more than a year before we start coming out with solid tiers

for now just enjoy the game and is wildly fluctuating character placings

Does anybody play this on PSN? I've tried to many times (I guess my region is west Europe?) and so far the "best" connection I've gotten was three bars and laggy as fuck (read unplayable). My friend plays on XBL and seem to find matches with good connection regularly. Is this simply because nobody plays this on PS3? It's sad because I'm really motivated to play this online.

One of the sickest sets I've ever seen in this game.

No :/ I think I got on when I ran by the camera to get to the match or when I left with a salty ass mug on my face, but other than that nah lol.

Edit: Lost to izz in winners who was using a cmurica and I haven't played against a cmurica in forever so ran into his shield one too many times :/

Double Edit: Also, I'm bad. Really bad. That helps with the losing thing.
