From what I've seen in videos Wesker's assist where he shoots on the ground is very good at picking up a fallen opponent to continue a combo.

I know, but Jaguar kick is awful, and if you want to air combo ghost butterfly won't get you anywhere. It does work well for pulling people into Dormammu or Deadpool's special tho, but Hsien-ko gets nothing out of it. Also ... still haven't really figured out assists. Are they best used BEFORE a combo, DURING a combo, or AFTER? I mainly mean ones like Wesker's jag kick and deadpool's katana-rama...but all assists in general :/

Also, the 360 joystick makes mixing up special moves (not special attacks) very frustrating. Don't get me wrong Dormammu, I love to use the black hole attack, but sometimes I want to use purification, ya know?

Got it Tuesday but I've had the plague so haven't really played much.

What little I've played I like but man, I need to get better.  I've been using the Phoenix along with Ryu and whoever else I feel like to build hyper meter but it can get rough getting to level 5 since I'm not good at combos.  I haven't played online yet, I want to get to where I can beat hard and I'm still having trouble with medium.

Can't beat hard, trouble with normal? ... finally someone who is in the same position I'm in :D

@Shadowblind: Don't worry I'm probably worst than you right now. What I know is from combo vids I watched but right now I can't do any combos that require assists. The best combos I can do are the ones where you launch the guy in the air and then switch out characters in the air.

Lol same here . . . I can only do a cool teleporting one that ends with an air special with Wesker, but I've landed it probably only twice against cpu and a friend (never played online yet... too scared :P)

So yesterday, in honor of MvC 3 coming out today, I decided to play a couple games of MvC 2 with my cousin... And the next thing y'know, it's 11 p.m, we're still playing, and neither of us has any intention of stopping.

This game has some big shoes to fill, in my book.

Yeah I read that code at Capcom Unity.

I was so shocked that there is not a single Spider Man villain in MVC3. I personally find that atrocious really. Venom, Green Goblin, Dr Oc and I could go on but I was really happy to see that at least Doc Ock has chances of DLC even guaranteed now coz I really do like Doc Ock. But I also hope to see Venom as DLC as well.

And it all makes sense because Frank West was in development until he was pulled out from the main roster. Which means there had to be 1 Marvel character that had to be taken out as well and it's all pointing to Doc Ock now because he would've then had been a Spider Man Villain rep for the Roster initially.

I'm gonna play MVC3 again. :)

I want to ask you people.

Is Storm really that good?

I've heard from quite a number of people that Storm is God Tier in MVC3.

Also it seems Wesker and Sentinel are God Tier as well.

Is it true?

Ah ok and what about Wesker? I know Sentinel is God Tier and Wesker from all the gameplay I've sen of him, he seems to be really good and powerful. But some have argued that Wesker isn't good.

Wesker in the right hands is god-tier. I got destroyed by a Wesker online, but you need to have assists in a vertical attack direction for maximum benefit (see: Dormammu's purification, Dante's Jame Session.) I used to think that knowing his teleports would be enough to block them . . .  :/

Too bad because I like his character, but neither Hsien-Ko nor Deadpool have the right assist types for him.
