Ultimate Marvel Vs Capcom 3

I'm hoping there's an update to the game 1 year after release because I am seriously not feeling the characters. All I wanted was Jin even though I knew it wasn't likely but when I see characters like She-Hulk Modok and Arthur I just get turned off. I'm all for new and interesting fighting styles but I just prefer better characters. If the game had a bigger roster I wouldn't mind them but the roster might only end up in the 30s. There are ton of characters people wanted to see that probably aren't making it in and Capcom is pretty good with trying to please fans these days so maybe they will do some kind of update.

I will still buy the game but it's just not shaping up the way I had hoped.
 
Love the roster. While I'm not a fan to a lot of them, in terms of gameplay and diversity it's a great mix. I really feel there's something for everyone. I was worried it was gonna be only newly popular characters and returning staples; the addition of quirky characters and old throw backs is making it interesting. It makes it feel like a new game as well, not a rehash with new paint. I'm seeing so many possibilities for "fun" teams as well.

I also feel with this diversity we're gonna see a lot of new stars in tournament level play. Seems you can really focus on a completely different skill set to play say MODOK, Amaterasu, and Wolverine. With games like SSF4 I feel you need 80% the same type of skills as the other players and 20% goes to character specifics, and it restricts the amount of people who can achieve competitive level play.
 
all those trailer videos just show zero outright dominating the other characters with basic combos. can't believe i've already hated the character before i got to know him.
 
You do realize those trailers are scripted? They're designed to make the character seem insanely good. You'll notice that zero doesn't do much damage without a combo and he takes damage like a bitch. It took me awhile to get over the "ZOMG BROKE" reaction...but at the end I feel Zero is fine. There's a lot of conditionals for him to deal insane damage.
 
then every other character's intro should have some crazy combo as well, which the case was not. Ie, if you saw a soul calibur 5 trailer, and there were "character intro" trailers, where you see hilde's doom combo as part of her trailer/scripted battles., but every other character gets a video of BB/AA and simple combo, it would not be surprising if you notice the difference.

I could be wrong if zero's combo-starter was really difficult to justify it, but it does not seem to be the case. Since these trailers are for both the hardcore mvc2 veterans, but also to the newbies (me), the impression i'm getting is I should give zero a try over the other characters
