Ohh, so that's why they made Jill Valentine the blandest character in the roster: so they could give her moves to a JOURNALIST.
(He said 'one of the lowest', that means he's pretty damn low, but of course he's no Phoenix.
Anyway:
NOOOO THIS IS THE FINAL EPISODE
YESSSS NEW MAX VIDS W/ UMVC3 TECH!
ANNNDDDDD FRANK WESTTT)
@9: Nova has a unique mechanic: draining red health to power up certain attacks. MVC3 Jill is a wasted slot, with unoriginal moves that do virtually no damage, and she takes forever to do even close to one million damage.
And yes, I saw her Assist Me, but you have to do SO much to get even mediocre results with her...

I'd say Nova is actually good and not uninspired because he's got some really good option. Human Rocket counters over projectiles, red health makes his supers more powerful,good air combo strings, lots of options for OTG combo strings. Nova is really good.
Jill is good, but they just made her too hard to use. All she needs is a new move. I actually didn't like MvC 2 Jill.
For me, Hsien-Ko, Felicia, Tron, Phoenix Wright, and Iron Fist were uninspired to PUT in the game lol.
@ 18 the same reason we all do.
Capcom thinks we care about him just because his last name is the same as our Hemisphere.
When in reality he's just a Zombie Photographer in a Frank Romero movie.
@17
550-650k? Where the hell did you get those numbers from?
Penance Stare does 450k.
@13
I was kidding about Nova being bland, I like all the characters in the game. But just because She is hard to use, doesn't mean she is a waste or slot or worthless. What, just because crimson viper is hard to use and takes skill to master, makes her worthless and a waste of slot? Not every character has to be an easy mode character
Hey, I love Frank West. He's a funny cheesy badass. Frank West is my favorite Capcom character, I can't wait to use him every single damn match.
Last of all: He's covered wars, ya know.
@17
Like 20 said, there's no way that does 550K LOL, maybe in X-Factor but still probably not.
You said RR had about more 1/4th left... Penance Stare does 450k, which is 3/4ths of 600,000. a little more would be 650,000.
So ill stick with my assumption of RR have about 650,000 health.
Didn't expect to see a breakdown; honestly thought he was gonna skip it and just do their breakdowns in the upcoming assist me episode. Well I'm glad he didn't skip it, I've always looked forward to these ever since he started the character breakdowns.
Raccoon Rockets god tier thus people won't be gettin' ova this raccoon for an effin' while. Thats shixxy; Frank wont be used in high level play, due to otha such cheap (noob friendly to boot) garbage that is Sentential.
Nice closing Maximilian, you highlighted a lot with minimum effort required. And that wasn't sarcastic.
Jill will never be a wasted character slot in my eye's. She is a great character and fun to play with. So what if she's a little hard to use, that just adds to the fun of using her.
@#13
You haven't played a good Jill yet I'm guessing... Once she's in prepare for mix-up's all day
@30
To each their own. I have over 200 fights with Jill and I didn't have much fun with her. I know there's apparently some amazing secret about her, but she just isn't fun to play. Too execution heavy and glass jawed (And this is coming from a Spiderman player).
Rocket Raccoon will be good, but only for the good players. noobs might pick him up quick, but almost any character can do 650,000 damage. So he will be a one touch kill type character, and he doesn't have a dark phoenix mode. Shouldn't be a problem once you do hit him.
The Dead Rising games are not all that great, even for a zombie hack/slash game, they aren't that great.
He's only "popular" because of how stupid he is, just like alot of things now.
"He's covered wars, ya know?"
He's also started flame wars as well, is that something else to jizz your pants about? He's an okay character from a mediocre game series, but he's a "badass" purely off principle.
"Ohh, so that's why they made Jill Valentine the blandest character in the roster: so they could give her moves to a JOURNALIST."
TvC wasn't a game. Tons of characters in this game level up. Frank West is a communist. Look at me I close my eyes and open my mouth.
Jill builds meter during a status hyper (basically nobody can do that) and can lock you down/chip you to death from full health if you don't gurad just right or she could just use her unrivaled mobility to mess your blocking up. She is probably in the same class as C Viper in terms of "if you can handle the execution prepare to do things nobody else can".
Wolverine, Phoenix, Ammy-ish out...Rocket Raccoon in for most obnoxious character lol.
Not only is his movelist so insane, is he so fast, has insane traps full screen but its his size..his size that makes me afraid of him. CC pisses me of for that lol. A lot of projectiles and normals will whiff on him ;_;
(So Rocket Raccon haters have turned to Frank West haters? The internet never ceases to amaze me...)
was hoping someone can help me... im new to mvc3 and wanted to know if you could turn off the timer in offline versus matches someone please let me know if this is possible

"Because, hurrr she could be Megaman instead, durrr." - Neckbeard #246
She's a waste cause on top of being extremely boring, she isn't that great of a character.
ZOMG I am so FULL of this furry lil critter it isnt even amusing anymore.
What a joke, a "totally badass raccoon" from outer space, with big guns.
What a waste.
Srsly.
Do want MMX, Venom, Carnage, Gambit.
(The Sentinels captured or slew all characters that aren't Mega Man
WOLVERINE!
Wolverine:
Deal with it, bub!)
@51
I'm pretty sure you only play easy mode characters from that statement. You wouldn't understand how fun it is to mix up a character multiple times in one combo, play mind games with your opponennts with jill, or pick from the many options Jill has to enter and destroy a character when the opponent is scared of her mix up game. Learning Jill, and destroying an entire team with just her alone is probably the best feeling in the world until you find another match.
@16 Honestly, if every character played the same I would not buy this game. It would be boring if every character played the same.
Everyone is different. Not everybody wants to play easy characters it's just a personal preference to some people. One guy said in comparison to me that he doesn't play to be different but I refute that because I don't play to be different, I simplay am different. Thats why I feel the first 9 months of vanilla MvC3 is so disappointing because nobody was willing to take some risk and play different characters.
@37: Hm, doesn't whiffing just mean missing? Thats how I saw it all this time.
But w/e you get my point =P, although he won't be as bad as Ammy when it comes to everything auto-missing (Moves that were designed not to miss on still opponents sf-gs-0gs) but RR is five times as mobile so its worse.
I honestly think Rocket Raccoon is a lot more balanced than you guys think. He is really good, but you have to think, while he has a great keep away AND rush down game, he DOES have some obvious disadvantages. His health is really low, like 650k, that's one complete combo ending with a level 1 hyper. Another disadvantage is his damage output, it seems rather low. His combos don't seem extremely flexible either.
Now of course he has some amazing advantages too, like his small size, his trap game, his really good looking log-trap assist, his mix ups, his burrowing. They ALL look really amazing, but I think on point he isn't going to be QUITE as dangerous as you guys are making him out to be unless he's in really skilled hands.
That being said, I plan to have him on my main team, he looks really viable and fun.
actually rocket is not a bad character hes a character that needs to be played well is you know how to do his combos if u don't how then no wonder u would say hes worse dont tell things if u havent played it the damm character and jill i agreed that maybe good if she would have a new move to use her easily because it is a hard challenge
@66 yea not digging that one because I dont have to worry as much about my skill when I can rely on gems (which no doubt will have some DLC ones that you can just buy)
but I would much rather have an alt costume and new endings for free instead of HH mode
@67
Okay, that's YOU and not the overwhelming majority of people.
@13 you obviously haven't been in the lab with jill for more than hour. Jill have many option of getting in and to top it off "" she has mediocre damage? you obviously probably did a magic series in the air and called it a day. Dude you have no fuking clue. If you knew what jill can do u wouldn't have made those remarks. Jill might be execution heavy but don't count her out she can do what anybody can do in the game. Just not as easy
Just the breakdown. All good, but damn man how long till this game comes out? everyday feels like a year!
