GamingUnion.net: "Despite their fighting games thriving on adversarial play, online modes at launch is an area that Capcom have so far neglected.
Both Street Fighter IV and Super Street Fighter IV hit retail with only the very basic online features.
Unfortunately, that trend looks to continue with Marvel vs Capcom 3, according to Capcom "special advisor" and Community Manager Seth Killian."
Artist Chris Cayco, who we’ve featured a few times before on Kotaku, grew up playing Marvel vs. Capcom (and Marvel vs. Street Fighter) games. His tribute to this, which took him over 175 hours, was to combine every single character to ever appear in Capcom’s crossover series in the one enormous image.
Makes me despise Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite that much more
So much wasted potential
As common as it is today, it is hard to believe that there was a time where gaming franchises crossing over was just a pipe dream. Capcom broke down the wall, but they took the combination of some of the most unlikely of franchises and made it the norm.
Whether it was a colossal successful partnership with Marvel Comics or a collaboration with rivals Namco and SNK, the “Vs.” series brought unforgettable experiences to the fighting genre.
Marvel doesn't just have a bright future ahead of it in films, but in the gaming realm as well. Some exciting new titles are showing up on all hardware, so does that mean gamers are finally catching up with the MCU?
As long as they continue with their community support, I'd say that's more than enough.
Oh dear. The "Hinting at behind-the-scenes frustrations" bit is interesting.
as long as there isn't any lag while playing online i will be happy. i cant expect there to be zero lag but they should at least make it as good as ssf4 which hardly has any lag at least for me.
They will be charging us for Online add-ons.
when will they learn
