Seth posted a short but sweet message about what players can except from Jill Valentine in Marvel vs. Capcom 3 on the Capcom Forums.
I just wonder if practicing my MvC2 Jill at all is worth anything at this point. Will this Jill be summoning crows and Los Plagos, or are we looking at more of an acrobatic gun user? — Levi
Seth Killian: Marvel vs. Capcom 3 Jill is a completely new character (and definitely more along your "acrobatic gun user" track). She's more different and completely re-imagined than any other returning cast-member. She just might be the fastest character in the game, too...

I wish they would at least give us a trailer for Jill. And Shuma-Gorath. Announcing them before giving us any of these was somewhat a bad idea in my opinion, but it worked on some people. Now that I know that Jill is completely different than she was in MvC2, I don't think I'll buy the DLC. Don't like Shuma-Gorath anyway, so why bother? Unless Jill looks more interesting than before, I won't buy.
Seth posted a short but sweet message about what players can "except"
Shouldn't that be "expect"¿
Cool news though.
so she won't have her zombie summons then? i guess that means frank west can has his zombie attacks
Don't think there will be any zombies moves in this game, "acrobatic gun user" hmm
If Jill isn't the same as I called it a while back then more than likely Frank or Chuck will be using summons IF they make the roster or through DLC.
Kinda cool, kinda sucks. Should be interesting though.
A few notes. I love being the reason of doubt.
Wesker and Chris is based off of their RE5 Timeline so it does'nt make sense making her STARS Jill story wise. She would either be BSAA and they aren't dealing with Zombies like they use to.
And As far as I recall, Jills move set while unique was'nt really that great. she only had one viable Hyper and the other two where gimmicky. Her monster summons was sub par they wree designed to overwhelm the opponent but with all the beam hyper characters in the game it really nullified her keep away. I think thats part of the reason why they are using this version of Jill.
It's not like Franks summons where attacks come from all over the place up above and behind where opponents least expect it, his summons were fast and hurt and set up for nasty combos, Jills took some work. I look forward to the new Jill.
acrobatic gun user is typically a dante and dead pool in my opinion
"She may be the fastest char. in the game"
More evidence that you'll have to pay to get the best chars.

Capcom didn't announce her. Gamestop listed them as a CE bonus. I don't think they were supposed to be announced just yet. They're only on the American site too. It makes sense because we're the only country getting the CE.
(Honestly guys, would you rather get a trailer for these characters that AREN'T for launch, or have them release the game on time? Don't say both.)
Wow, weren't we discussing how Jill played in the Galactus article when they showed off the Executioner in a comic? Nice timing, I must say.

Ahhh. I wasn't aware. Well its been a few months since their confirmation. All I (and possibly some others) am asking for is too at least get a minute and a half preview of what I can expect from these characters (gameplay wise. Not with just a comment from a guy from Capcom)
Wait so Jill might be the fastest character in the game... even faster than X-23. Wow.
I gotta make a speed team; X-23, Jill, and Felicia cause she's pretty fast and I can't remember if there were any other fast characters.
There's an overwhelming amount of guns in this game o_O I'm still really interested in how this new Jill plays. I wonder if one of her hypers has to do anything with the executioner. seems like a decent replacement for tyrant :P
I just hope Jill has summons. If not, then that's ok. Summons will be cool tho. They give her like flash grenades and her 2 scorpion sub machine gun. A summon will probably be the executioner. Overall my prediction on her play style might turn out to be correct but only time will tell.

This newly-launched site will be hosting Marvel vs Capcom 3 tournaments every other week on Playstation 3 if anyone is interested.
I hate, hate, HATE her Nina Williams-wannabe look.
Also to me changing her gameplay doesn't make any sense, be it an older, Las Plagas-related Jill or not.
Anyways, maybe this gives furhter, I dunno, "proof" that Frank West could be in the game? I mean, isn't he summoning zombies n poop in TvC?
Too bad they didnt change magnetos gameplay style
#43 Best hopeful suggestion I've heard yet. I love some of the characters in BB, but can't stand the game's style overall compared to GG..badass and energetic.
I highly doubt she's going to have summons, even in hypercombos. That's more time and money spent developing other character models when they could do something that makes sense for the character. No disrespect to fans of her in mvc2, but a zombie killer summoning zombies...in a fighting game no less? -_-
She looks better then Nina Williams and parts of her goonsuit
I love Jill, I'm attached to her more than any other game character. She brings back my good childhood memories. I will use her in my team no matter what! :D I love you Jill! <3 Now, if only the alternate costume would be RE3 or even RE1 costume, I wouldn't care about anything else! :)
If her Level 3 is based off her RE5 fight style then she's going to be nuts.
