Infinite will still be trash compared to this

Idgaf what anybody says the soundtrack for this game was awesome, specifically the character select screen

>>376472128
Are there people out there that hate the soundtrack? Fucking how?

Disagree based off Infinite gameplay. All I need is for Capcom to announce pair play and I am sold.

>>376472268
because it's not hard rock, dubstep, or any other type of music you'd hear in every other fighting game.

Different = bad, at least according to those people

or maybe they don't like jazz

>>376472268
Jazz just doesn't get me in the mood for punching people.

Go to the wikipedia page for it and read the "reception" section. Was universally panned for the soundtrack. Too lazy to post link, sorry

>>376472128
I still love this game and the soundtrack. Why are the newer games not hand drawn and have worse music?

>>376472551
YES

"

Across all platforms, many reviewers cited the jazz-inspired soundtrack as the game's biggest flaw. Jeremy Dunham of IGN described the music as "plain god-awful", stating that the "jazzy lounge lizard music and snappy beats" did not fit the action in the slightest.[27] Martin Taylor of Eurogamer expressed his disappointment that the game's visual flair was backed by "a horrific, lift music-oriented soundtrack and low quality sound effects".[65] Game Revolution shared the sentiment, declaring it as "some of the lamest music that you've ever heard".[16]"

>>376471978
It depresses me that Infinite won't have all the neat cameos because they're not able to recycle a huge library of 2D Capcom art.

MVC2 was an unbalanced mess though. Sure it was fun, but it was basically Mugen with all o the thrown in sprites from other games.

>>376472780
It's pretty obvious MVC2 was just hastily slapped together what with how terribad the balance is.

yes, it was fun

that's what matters

>>376472584
literally all this game definitely has over 3 and i is technicality. neutral is the same in 3, shitty old sprites do not mix well with ps2 era 3d graphcs. i dont get jazz

If this were released today, you fuckers would be complaining about how it's just a rehashed cash grab sprite dump

But because it came out during your adolescent years, it's GOTY, all years

>no digital format at stores because marvel
Fuck them

>>376472128
It's not for everyone, at least I get that.
I like how someone hacked the dreamcast version with some different ost because of those who didn't like the original version

>>376472281
My problem is that I loved the 2d style, something I will never have again in this series.
The big number of characters was another thing, as some characters that will never be back again because we are not in the 90s/early2000s era

>>376472780

The thing is, you will not notice much of the soundtrack while fighting 3vs 3 with all that chaos.

>>376473429
>would be complaining about how it's just a rehashed cash grab sprite dump
people definitely compained about that back then, I remember that. But the game was fun to play and the presentation was great, so it didn't matter.

Keep in mind this was before DLC, too. Nowadays at least half those characters would be locked.

Of course it will be. UMvC3 was garbage compared to that too, and it didn't have D*sney mass market meddling and modern Crapcom developing. MVCI is going to be a joke.

3D will just never feel as tight or technical as 2D to me.

I can understand the sentiment, but it's not even like jazz can't be used for action scenes. Cowboy Bebop and Lupin the 3rd use it extensively, and the frantic and free nature of jazz only serves to add more energy to each scene.

Because hand drawn animation is expensive as hell. Even most actual serialized animations rely on motion tweens and digital tricks to get the job done. It's just not economical. Funnily enough, that pony fighting game will probably be the last hand-drawn fighter that'll come out for a very long time.

But 2 didn't have the best character.

>>376473931
thats not the issue. its just that its cheaper. 2d graphics is better is for 2d gameplay and the same for 3d is not a profound statement

>>376472128
I fucking loved mvc2, wish they kept the pixel art style. The art in that game was so good

>>376473095
This is the retroactive 09er opinion, but compared to what came before MVC2 clearly had a lot of thought and balance put into it. Infinites are a lot harder to start up and do, there are a bunch of mechanics put in to make combo length/damage not work, and lots of characters have received cool buffs or changes to make them more interesting than in previous VS games

Where the game falls apart are the glitches that undo most of their intentional decisions, something that only happened because the game was slapped together pretty quickly before marvel lost the lisence

with that said, marvel has a very balanced and interesting roster of meta characters that's around the average number of most fighting games at the time, and then like 30-40 characters that are either only sort of viable or not viable at all to play around with in more casual settings

That's a lot better than say, SF5 which has a small roster that feels shitty AND is unbalanced as hell

>>376471978
I honestly wish it would be as good as MVC2 and 3. The problem is that games used to be broken so even at casual level a character like Iceman was fun to play, a character like Hayato was interesting. With how per-programmed some of these combos and situations are, you don't have freedom unless you pick a top tier character.

Ironically the most fun games are usually the most busted ones. MVC1, 2, and 3 all added things that made the game more accessible, but now they're taking AWAY shit and making it more casual. That's taking the lazy way out.

>>376471978
Of course everything else is trash compared to what you worship, because you've convinced yourself that it's impossible to like and enjoy more than one thing.

This is the mindset of the mega-autist.

>>376474237
Not all subgenres of jazz are this frantic.

>>376472368
Music is a tool to set a tone of stages. None of the stages in MVC2 feel jazzy. None of the characters in MVC2 suit jazz. Do you see Ryu and think, yeah, that's the character for Jazz music? Most people would think he'd go well with drums and eastern instruments. It's jarring. The only possible character for the entire roster whom Jazz might be anywhere near appropriate would be Spider-Man and even that is stretching. This is exactly why Jazz worked for Iori.

That does not mean the soundtrack is a bad score. The tracks are fun to listen to. It's just not appropriate.

But if Psylocke is in infinite as dlc that would be hype OP

Fags complain about how god tiers dominate the game, but if you remove them, trap teams/Iron Man/WM/Sim/Cyke will be the new god tiers. And if you remove them, then Rogue/Jugg/Cammy/Colossus/Omega Red will be the new god tiers.

Just removing god tiers won't make the game magically more balanced.

I dont see them putting x-men on base other than maybe wolverine
