[Multiplatform] SHINKUUTETSUMAKISEMPUKYAKUU! - Marvel vs Capcom 3, now with more Iron Man

Getting the special edition on PS3. If anyone gets it day one, would be fun to jump in online for some casuals while we still know nothing.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Played it yesterday on arrival. It's actually easier to learn than the previous games. I actually did as I promised, I jumped online with a few friends without knowing anything about the mechanics. Lost two matches until I got a handle of things. Zero so far is the easiest to pick up. He doesn't have a huge move set like dante so it's not overwhelming.
I was pulling off random air tags which was freaking awesome. Don't know how I did them, I'm guessing it's Down, Forward, Special?

The special edition feels like a waste now since jill and shuma have been delayed until the 15th of march. I'm still getting them for free but I thought the whole point of the thing was to have them a bit earlier. Especially since their already on the damn disc.

Theres also a rumor going around that Frank and Doc Oc are future DLC characters.

I'm guessing it's because we're on the ps3 that we get so many dante's. I fucking hate him, the person playing him may as well be playing on easy mode because it's the same moves over and over again. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure he's good once he's picked up right but day 1 dante is annoying.

My main team is zero, since he was easy to pick up in day one as I mentioned before. Superskrull, because he has some easy moves to pull off into super but I'll swap him out soon I think. And Hulk because he's a fucking powerhouse, people forget he has some shield and he has a good assist with gamma wave.
I've only played online in player matches with people around the same skill (according to their ranking) and I've been able to beat the majority of them so I may hit up some ranked matches soon.
Only time I lost is with the spamming characters. Ammy throws those damn beads like there's no tomorrow which really pissed me off, dante players teleport all over the place not knowing what the fuck they're doing but still get those supers off on me, and those are the cheapest ones I've seen so far.
I played an iron man spamming the proton beam but it doesn't have recovery like Ammy's beads so it's easy to get around it.

I've actually tried avoiding the more popular characters, sentinel, dante, wesker, i'm not going to learn them until i need to.
Also, why is pheonix so fucking weak! I fought someone who had her as the first fighter, one Zero combo later, she's dead. ONE!

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I didn't get anyone who was less than 4th Lord for the hour I was spending playing Ranked. This was through fight request, since regular search doesn't find shit, still.

Now I know what it's like to be Mo0.

That sucks. Ps3 players apparently haven't been playing hardcore because I jumped in ranked matches for the first time yesterday and easily found people in the same rankings (beginner) as me and was able to obtain the 5 wins in a row trophy. Only reason I've lost so far is because of time out.
I've noticed that I have more chances of playing a laggy match in ranked matches than in player matches for some reason and also 100% of players are picking Dante. It's fucking annoying. I've only fought one person who actually knew real combos and I didn't mind losing to that but so far everyone else does random supers at the start of the match.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
