Really liked what I've been reading so far. I suppose there had to be some type of "balance" to account for a larger roster and only 4 powers per char seems to be just that.

I can certainly deal, though. The team combos seems to be the area where they could possibly more than make up for where each individual unit may be limited.

Not a fan of having only 4 powers per character, I really didn't like that in MUA2 as it stripped down a fun customization feature. However, I'll be willing to trade that for a hefty roster of characters so hopefully the number of characters in the base game makes up for it.

The four per character is okay...if it means we get more characters in the end. I think it makes it easier for them to differentiate between characters with similar abilities, I would assume.

Fine with 4 abilities per character, but I'm mostly just hoping the normal light/heavy and block/dodge mechanics don't feel like swimming around. This being team ninja, and what they did with the camera, combined with everything that GI is saying definitely bodes well for it

Where's Gwenpool? :D

Also give me "nextwave" when selecting Monica Rambeau, Elsa Bloodstone, Machine Man, and Boom Boom :D

Only four powers per character? That's kinda disappointing... At least there are mods via ISO-8, that sounds pretty neat.

The Infinity Trials sound like a fun time too.

Nah I'm thinking a more obscure reference like
Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order |OT| Are Godzilla and Star Wars in this one?

Or
Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order |OT| Featuring Deadpool the card carrying Avenger

Still waiting for a 3DS port with a handful of different playable characters. Like Howard The Duck or Hercules or Rom The Space Knight or Squirrel Girl.

I'd say odds are even higher of that and even story addditions considering how much dlc has expanded and the crew behind the new one. Expect Fantastic Four and Dr Doom first if they don't make the base game. On the other hand feels like they've basically hid the overall story so far so

I hope they give us a platform to request or vote for DLC characters after release!

I am forever thankful we're getting Kevin Wada's Scarlet Witch design as her default because it's by far her best costume.

Fuck how did I miss the PSP game? Didn't get to know these games until a friend got MUA2 for 360, but a portable, couch coop version (I assume) would have been sweet.

One of Wolverines' powers is to bitch at everyone for not going back for Morph and Beast
