Cosmic Ghost Rider and Black Panther are here for a cosmic beatdown. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gdosJrDNA-c
Nice that Thanos has his Annihilation look.I hope DnA Star-Lord shows up in this. Rom, too, though he's a never ever.
>>150423792>game is combination of 90's Marvel and Annihilation>Cosmic Ghost Rider for some reason
>>150423969>reads up on Cosmic Ghost Riderehh.. he sounds like a 90s character that was created 20 years late
>>150423792>no Carolno care
>>150424014Just like everything Cates does
>>150424024you already have a captain marvel
>>150423844>I hope DnA Star-Lord shows up in this.Considering this is based on 90s Marvel (ignoring Frank Rider), they would use this Star Lord and not DnA, at worst, they'll just use Meme Lord since that's the most recognizable version.
>>150424182Phyla is there and she's after the 90s.Also, Thanos' outfit.It's a non 0 chance at least.
>>150424219Well, that's true and if there's a chance for DnA Quil to get some spotlight, it would be this game
>>150424182>>150424271DnA stands for Dan Abnett right? Separate anon here who doesn't know as much about Annihilation or older cosmic Marvel beyond infinity events, but Star Lord's classic look and the Dan Abnett look are the two best costumes. If one character got multiple sprites, Star Lord should get them. So if 3 are left who should they be? Star Lord, Quasar, and Moondragon? I'm trying to think of 90's guys. Adam Warlock probably not because of Rivals and him already being pushed. 90's Gamora with her fishnet outfit would be hot but she would probably be boring to play as.
>>150423792>COSMIC Ghost RiderThis defeats the whole point of the 90s aesthetic.
>>150424442There's 2 left.I don't think they're doing Quasar with Phyla there.I think they're trying to keep the cosmic and earth heroes balanced, so at least 1 more cosmic hero (maybe Moondragon or Gladiator)The last one could either be an earth hero or cosmic. If it's earth based, I think Iron Man is likely.
>>150424024The era of pushing that bitch is over.Welcome to the Storm Era.
>>150424589The weird thing is that Marvel is still pushing Kamala, despite her also a major character in the mega bomb also known as The Marvels.
>>150424636they're pushing her by trying to make her an X-Men character
>>150424636Yeah but she's with the X-men now and that will fix everything.It won't but whatever Marvel.
>>150424589Nah Carol is still the best and Storm is sales poison
>>150424672This is Storm laughing as she drinks your tears.
>>150424442>DnA stands for Dan Abnett right?nta but it stands for Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning.They were the co-writers on Nova and GotG. They stopped working together for whatever reason.
>First character trailer is She-Hulk and Rocket>Second is Silver Surfer and BRB>Third is BP and CGRSo, going by patterns, the next trailer will have 2 cosmic characters, with one of them being a more obscure take on a more popular hero.
>>150424717Screaming as her flop series gets cancelled again
>>150424850Okay Carol
>>150424717>screams in traced porn
>>150424666I think it's gonna last at least until the X-Men movie (especially since I fully expect Fiege to push her to be on the MCU X-Men).
>>150423792>Its the male Cosmic Ghost RiderThank god. Btw, he is pretty much the Punisher rep.
>>150423792I don't like Cosmic Ghost Rider but it's not like he appears in video games often so that's cool I guess
>>150424806I hope we have Gladiator. He and the Shiar are underutilized.>obscure take on a more popular hero.Genis? Krugarr?
>>150426116You could argue Gladiator counts as that. Since you know, he's like one of the 5 Superman dudes Marvel has running around.
>>150426253>Since you know, he's like one of the 5 Superman dudes Marvel has running around.Iirc, that would be Gladiator, Hyperion, Count Nefaria, Blue Marvel, Omega the Unknow and Sentry?
>>150424464Literally my first thought, kind of disappointing, they were doing so well keeping this consistently 90's until this.
>>150423792Iron Man status? I have a hard time believing a Marvel property won't have him
>>150426353I want this armor for Iron Man. Including the green colored jet effects.
>>150426429We'd probably get the Modular Armor.
>>150426353Honestly kind of shocked Iron Man and Hulk hasn't been announced (though may She Hulk is taking Hulk's spot, even though they're different enough). Genuinely relieved Deadpool hasn't been announced, hopefully it stays that way.
>>150426436For max 90's nostalgia, absolutely.Also really hoping Adam Warlock is one of the last characters announced, it wouldn't be a 90's cosmic Marvel story without him.
>>150426295Also, Ikaris.
>>150426482Technically, Hyperion is also an Eternal too? Or at least, the good guy Squadron Supreme version.
>>150423792>Cosmic Ghost RiderLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAME>Black Panther Expected
>>150426471Not sure, they have brown and tan Wolverine.
>>150426724I'm assuming they'll have some pallette swaps, Wolverine feels like an obvious one.
>>150426454Hulk and Thor have been swapped out for Jen and Bill, we’re not getting them in this one.
It would be cool if they had the FF, but it has an alternate roster like the Thing, Crystal, Medusa and Human Torch.
>>150426823I don't need the full FF, but having Ben would be cool, though I could see not doing him, because drawing his rock texture as pixel art for every frame of animation would be a pain in the ass.
>>150423792Something weird's going on in Cosmic Ghost Rider's design, I know most of these characters aren't very detailed which is great, but I think they should do something more with him like the skull teeth below his chest, maybe give him a red belt or throw some colors on the boots, I don't know.
>>150426858Nah, I really want an FF team, even if its one of the weird team.
>>150426923He is supposed to be way more detailed. They even missed the cosmic sky effect and the blue decorations.
>>150426471>Ultimo the Living Holocaustwhy'd they stop calling him by his full moniker
>>150426974Yeah, I guess they wanted him to blend in so no glowing effects at least in the model sheet, but as flat as the colors are I think there were better ways to do it.
Since Ikaris got mentionned , it would be nice to have one of the Eternal in. They got butchered lately, so them having a W would be nice.
>>150427274Sersi would be fun, could have some fun animations of her trying to cosy up with Captain America
>>150426977Well clearly it's cause Ultimo is a giant robot which is technically not living
>>150427274I feel like you could say the same about the Inhumans
feel like we need to have at least 1 more waifu character so 4 players can each have 1.Gamora, Crystal, Medusa, Moondragon, Sersi, Phoenix could work off the top of my head.
>>150427843Jean Phoenix or Rachel Phoenix?
>>150426620>LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMEYou're lame.
>>150427664Black Bolt, Crystal, Lockjaw or Medusa are pretty much the only Inhumans that'd potentially get in
>>150427868I assumed Jean.
>>150424636Some people who aren't movieslop casuals read Kamala's comics from before that and actually like her.
>>150427843Where's Mantis??
>>150428000Fair enough, but I kinda want them to stick to the original version of her for funnies.
>>150423792Where are the female character sprites to make M.U.G.E.N. porn out of
>>150427890What about Kamala?
>>150426724He wore the brown suit in the 90's too.
>>150423792>cosmic ghost riderand now I'm not buying your game. Anything that supports modern trash is no go for me
>>150423792So is this going to be worth playing solo?
>>150429046The main gimmick is that you can swap between two characters, which is pretty unique for a beat em up.
>>150427868>>150427952We already have two X-Men reps, need to add something more cosmic related.
>>150423792>wokeslop
>>150429426Two X-Men reps honestly is kind of weak for how huge the Mutant pantheon in Marvel is.
Anyone hate black panther's inclusion? He's not a cosmic character and whatever's hickman trash that made him one briefly is fucking shit. Wolverine and spider-man are more cosmic than fucking black panther
>>150429528X-Men are overexposed>>150429592He like Cap and a few other heroes are just there because for the audience that buys video games, all the cosmic guys outside of the Guardians are scrimblo tier.
>>150429592Has Cap had any cosmic adventures aside from Galactic Storm?
>>150424583That makes sense and if they use the modular armor but if they did a 90's version of some cosmic armor I wouldn't mind if it doesn't suck. I forget if he had space armor at all in the 90's. Guess all his armor just started to work in space so he didn't need a new dedicated one. >>150427843Reading the thread, Iron Man, Moondragon, and Adam Warlock are probably the best options to fill out the roster and make it congeal into a whole that is fitting. I can see them deciding on that. Dunno if it would be the best since I personally would want less Earth heroes but this game does have good art and seeing Earth heroes in this style is cool. ROM and Star Lord would be cool and my preference. Wish they did 2 games instead of 1.
>>150429806Kree–Skrull War? and his infinity gauntlet pages are iconic
>>150429806Wouldn't any time the Avengers went to space count as a cosmic adventure?
>>150424182>>150424271feel like they're soft retiring Quill because of Chris Pratt90% sure he's being killed off in mperial
>>150430437that's kinda weird considering Pratt-Lord is the one of the few old MCU characters still on the table there
>>150430437Man imagine if Thanos Imperative was just the end
Now that I think about it, it looks like they're using the War of the Gems roster, so Tony might be next?
>>150428483Well she's not a inhuman anymore sadly and normally she would be a shoe in but this seems very classic Marvel focused with the exception of Cosmic Ghost Rider. Though if I could pick an inhuman to get in, Kid Kaiju would be my oddball pick since he's one of the few decent new Marvel kid heroes with an actual unique identity and actually interesting abilities.
>>150430763Kid Kaiju doesn't feel like Beat em up material even if he has potential
>>150431155Suppose just make him sorta like V in DMCV or Chaos in Under Night. Also could always have him perhaps riding one of the smaller Kaiju he has drawn, honestly the biggest hurdle he has is despite how cool his theming is, it makes it to big without the smaller size changing that characters like Hank Pym or Rita Demara have to make it gameplay viable....also I'd want either of those two in also.
>>150427987Yeah but Marvel doesn't care about those guys lol
>>150431276Well, for this type of game I'm not sure a puppet character would work.Also, while I like Hank, I can't ever remember any of the Ant senpai feeling 'right' in the various video games.
>>150430758Hulk definitely won't be in this though.
>>150431536Mainly cause they usually aren't even allowed to be playable in non phone games, only Wasp got something with MUA3 and none have be in a Capcom fighter yet at all. Hopefully Tokon can include any of them as fighters.
>>150431536well you could make Hank Pym be yellow jacket and leave transformations only for supers, problem solved
>>150423792They should have given Venom the blue tint if they were going to add Black Panther.
>>150432174For Venom's in-game sprites, I mean. They clearly thought the same in the OP pic.
>>150432174>>150432202Would not surprise me if Venom has a palette swap similar to his MvC color scheme.
>>150423792Man, I can't decide what team I want to use first, what a great cast. It's been a fucking while since I've seen a game like this and not rolled my eyes at least once during character reveals.
>>150426353What if it's War Machine instead MVC style
>>150427664True. Fuck the movies.
>>150430437but pratt is so uncontroversial. he does nothing.
>>150432881>but pratt is so uncontroversialHe's an outspoken Conservative and thus that makes him literally Hitler to the MCU fans.
>>150432861The funniest curve ball they could throw is having Crimson Dynamo instead,specifically the one being a hero with the Winter Guard.
>>150432936Technically, the first Crimson Dynamo was a good guy. Stark even gave him a job.
>>150433001Shame he's dead, honestly hard to keep track of the CD's since there's 14 of them. At least with Titanium Man there's mainly just Boris except in the Armored Adventures cartoon where Justin Hammer wears the suit instead.
>>150430437He's in Tokon and still getting content in Rivals, no need for conspiracies
>>150433109The actual conspiracy is how fucked over Hank Pym has been
>>150433112Hank Pym, Danny Rand and Johnny Blaze are three characters Marvel has been consistently "othering" lately, they're either non-combatants or dead in favor of their replacements in everything now
>>150433156I actually like the Undead Danny issue, I hope it leads to him getting revived.Also, Johnny just had a series by Benjamin Percy and Danny is back as GR. If anything, its Robbie that is getting shelved right now, he is in barely anything of noteworthy.Hank Pym is also unUltroned, but I hope the synergy wear off by then.There are more heroes that are getting shelved imo. Especially 90s creations like Sleepwalker, Genis or Darkhawk.
>>150433156Danny Rand and Johnny Blaze really got fucked over in the past few years with Ironfist it was the Netflix show being mainly at fault. At least those two got to be in MVC3 plus Ironfist was one of the only decently done characters in Ultimate Spider-man though they so killed his relationship with Misty Knight for no reason. Hank Pym hasn't been allowed to be playable in years of video games, poor guy has been excluded from all 3 Ultimate Alliances, all the Capcom fighters and is an old man currently in the comics after near decade of being dead but as a tradeoff is absolutely superbly done in EMH being arguably the best blend of comic traits and new ideas they used for him in the show that really benefited his characterisation with that show being a major reason he has a fanbase besides Avengers Academy or Busiek's run doing a lot to save his rep and Avengers Academy having to do it again after Chuck Austen/Bendis.
>>150433289Busiek was a god send for a lot of characters, like Iron Man (remember it was after crossing) and Hank Pym.
>>150433247I meant more in adaptations, it got more noticeable lately. To be honest it could be worse since they're legacies are mostly inoffensive to me but I still pray synergy stays far away every new ongoing they get
>>150433484Busiek was also a godsend for salvaging Carol Danvers without Claremont's petulance balancing making her flawed but a genuinely endearing heroine and he especially redefined Kang by getting to the core of what made him interesting as a villain while also not downplaying his nastiness having killed countless of his sons to get the perfect one, wiping Washington with millions of deaths and making Wasp personally sign away the earth to his rule while sending countless heroes to prison camps while also having enough honor to fight Captain America with none of his arsenal besides a sword and willing to die to have his final glory plus wanting his son to forge his path succeeding him.
Are they based enough to have Gladiator and Smasher?
>>150424047>CatesIsn't he a Tieri's creation?Which isn't much better, Tieri is fucking awful.
>>150433908Wasn't Cosmic GR a creation for Cates' Thanos?Also, Frank Castle who then got turned into a Ghost Rider who then got turned into an herald of Galactus who then became Thanos' right-hand man sounds very Cates.
>>150433570Wow, someone else who's actually read Kang Dynasty
>>150429592He already had a whole run in space and the space wakanda thing is still going. Compared to Shulk, storm, Spidey, cap and wolverine, T'challa might as well be a fucking skrulll.
>>150431549No shit anon, they're using She-Hulk in lieu of the Hulk.
>>150429592>Anyone hate black panther's inclusion?>He doesn't know.
So, we got three out of six of the Annihilators, four of you count Phyla. How likely the next picks are Ronan and Gladiaor?
>>150434327Ronan is boss material imo, but I really want to see Gladiator.
>>150430437no they're not and >>150432890 no he isn'tstop making up scenarios, Star-Lord is still a popular character and he's getting a launch roster spot in Marvel Tokon too. Chris Pratt is still an incredibly popular and marketable guy, despite whatever that church "controversy" was all about.
>>150424047on one hand it's unoriginal but on the other hand I enjoy Cates indulging in dumb 90s-tier shit
>>150434042Well the people adapting him sure didn't when casting Majors instead of an actually fitting actor, EMH as usual despite some slight differences got the core elements that make him in my opinion a villain that deserves a lot more respect comparable to Dr Doom or Apocalypse in the eyes of fans and writers down perfectly. I'll have to give Kang Dynasty a reread since own the physical collection of the storyline and Avengers Forever beforehand just makes sense to look over also.
>>150433774Sexy girl Smasher?
>>150434468Yeah, the one with a big butt.
>>150434491Righteous my dude, Rita Yellowjacket I'd kill for to get in with a sexy pixel art design that shows off her shapely figure and luscious lips.
>>150434593If they would stop shilling the woman of the year and actually do something with the other heroines like Sharon, Julia, Rita, Isabel, Sersi, etc
>>150434677Diamondback would be nice since she's one of Captain America's best supporting ladies. Honestly Marvel had some really great heroines in the 70's and 80's design and personality wise. Hell I'd read an all girl's Avengers team just made of the underrated and neglected ladies with artists that can draw lovely woman in leotards or bodysuits.
Give me the Power Pack, I want to kill Snarks
>>150423792>90s style.KINO
>>150424636because Kamala is actually a cool and lovable character
>>150434703Time for Songbird to shine
>>150432880The Inhumans weren't fucked by the movies.They were fucked because Iger baited a fanbase war.
>>150423792>Cosmic Ghost Rider and Black Panther are here for a cosmic beatdown.There goes every bit of interest I had in this game.
>>150434703>>150436608>Songbird>Diamondback
>>150436801>two characters I don’t like added to a game with a number of other playable charactersWow how terrible
This just hit me, but Gladiator is what if Superman was purple.
>>150436833Don't inflate his ego
>>150436925Is he even still around? He was notorious not just here but around the internet and compared to certain other trolls we have now him just being kind of a dumb waifufag seems almost quaint.
It would be nice if we had the OG Guardians. Imagine the bullshit Yondu could pull.Hell, I would have taken Vance over Steve.
>>150436925This a Bendis issue? Also I just like Diamondback, she's actually a pretty unique heroine who's been given a lot of mean writing for no reason like a lot of Greenwald's characters.
>>150438501Gruenwald, cunt autocorrect
>>150437468OG Guardians are a bit too 'literally who'
>>150436906The Imperial Guard is just 'What if the Legion of Superheroes were aliens'
>>150437216I will tread lightly as I do not want a bunch of schizos to return like the Legion of Doom descending on the board but I haven't heard of this guy you're hesitantly talking about.>>150434143I'm sad because of muscle mommy fags that we get that huge bitch instead of a Wonder Woman-esque body but a little bigger for She Hulk. I don't want Marisa from SF6, I want perfect proportions for her except she's a bit more ripped and taller. Also damn, no retro sci-fi outfit for space She-Hulk or Dejah Thoris outfit for her. I mean that's wish fulfilment for this game but for variant covers that's ok. But no we don't even get that.
