theres Literally no reason to ever play single player.

i play on 360, and my favourite single character is probably wolverine. i mostly play wolvy/sent/hulk because hulk is The Real Sentinel and wolverine + drones is gruesome. i also switch in skrull, spencer, wesker, chris, doom and zero when i feel like it.

with sent's health nerf drones assist isn't so safe anymore so i'm probably gonna put hulk in second and pick another anchor (probably doom w/ hidden missiles but spencer has retarded comeback ability)

congrats to all of you shitty idiots who couldnt be bothered to put half an hour into training mode to learn how to fight sentinel

spoken like a true sentinel player
that's the thing though. what really made people mad about sentinel (armoured normals, level 3 x factor) hasn't been addressed. it sets a really bad precedent to make a kneejerk change this quick on top of which bad players are still gonna get mauled by sentinel.

I generally do Hulk/She-Hulk/Dante to fit my playstyle (rushdown). Hulk is the bomb but he's so slow, so keep-away is the main way people seem to counter me.

I think the Sentinel nerf will be adjusted as more feedback is given, but it's a step in the right direction. He did need a health or damage nerf (and got a health nerf), and preferably some changes to his armor (which, unfortunately, he didn't get). The 3XF isn't so much of an issue on him because any character is hella great with 3XF, except maybe Phoenix. Hulk's 3XF + Crush can kill an entire enemy team if they are in crossover combo, for example.

Edit: Does Ammy's down beads assist anchor?

his health was fine because he gets opened up so easily by overheads by everybody and has some stunningly bad matchups like ammy. what they really needed to do was make level 1 x factor a combo cancel, change level 2 to level 1, and change level 3 to level 2.

sentinel plateaud immediately and everybody who is going to play the game for longer than 3 months learned how to fight against him. this isn't an mmorpg and you shouldn't just go screwing with balance willy nilly.

i take back what i said about wolvey, he's a beast.

i'm running wolvey/haggar/zero, but as much as it pains me to do so it looks like i need to swap out zero. nostalgia-wise, nothing beats playing as him in black armor (X5 for the victory) but he's my weakest character at the moment. arthur is still a pain to play as but i really want to learn him. super skrull and spidey are both getting some action too.

and i guess the people i play against suck, because i've developed a trick or two against the prevalent sentinels.

zero is great but his health makes him a liability, especially as your anchor. haggar's assist is great for keeping people off you but you need an assist to help you get in. i'd recommend hulk gamma wave or sentinel drones, gamma wave otgs so you can extend your wolverine combos. also hulk gets a ridiculous 230% damage boost in level 3 x factor so he's kinda handy to have in your pocket.

Wish they'd done something more interesting than just reduce Sentinel's health - make it so he doesn't gain health when he's on the bench or something.
Do not agree that he didn't need a nerf though - not because he's unbalanced or overpowered, just that's he's too much of a swiss army knife and shows up too often in matches.  This compounded by the fact he's a bad matchup for some fun characters and is not all that fun to fight even if you are demolishing him.

I like getting the endings etc., though the ones in MvC3 pretty much have bare minimum effort put into them, but still! Actually, the little profile pages you get for beating the game with each character are a lot more interesting than the endings are.

Also on that note... isn't Sentinel one of the characters you have to unlock by beating Single-Player mode? Who, Me?

Sentinel scrubs are what teleporters and beam-whores are for. I'll tell ya who needs a nerf, and that's WESKER. >.<

hulk has a terrible time getting in without assists so use sentinel instead if you want an easier time on your last dude. but hulk is great.

No, you just have to have X number of player points which you can get in any mode (single player, multiplayer, online or off).

Also, Spencer's background music is awesome (the Bionic Commando NES 1st level theme remixed), too bad the character looks doofy as fuck.

also the guy who plays spencer is the brother in law of a friend of mine. spencer owns. play as spencer. i removed sentinel from my team so now i have more trouble getting in but once i get in if i land a single hit as spencer any character is dead. Play As Spencer.

i recorded some stuff but it was a pain in the ass to sit through and find the cool bits and then i accidentally deleted the folder the videos were in before i rendered it and couldn't recover a bunch of them. so this is all there is right now. these are both x factor level 1:





first combo: L M H xx BIONIC ARM xfc L M H S ^ M M H S v tiger knee M grapple S QCF+S xx super

if you fucked up and missed a hit somewhere you can otg grapple after the final super for more damage, the combo uses 2 meters but you build one and a half

i recorded a bunch of raw bionic arm combo setups that did more damage than this one but whatever:

BIONIC ARM xfc L M H S ^ M M H S v hulk assist M H S ^ M M H S v tiger knee grapple then one in mid air

oh also people keep saying that you can link armour piercer off of his f+H overhead. thats not strictly true, because you can actually mash it out. give it a try
