What happened to all you "free marvel" people...?

[Gilhene]

I'm, genuinely confused. Where did all the people who were crying free marvel for years go? Within like a month of two the player base fell off into a void. I get that veterans have been playing this for years but isn't that the case with any long running fighting game? I'd have to assume that the people who were crying free marvel KNEW what kind of game this was gonna be, so why did everyone get beat into submission and decide to put the game down? Have you guys ever played a fighting game before? I love fighting games and I'm not even that good at them in comparison to some veterans, but dang man. It feels like the only real way to play some MvC is to go to a local.

TL;DR: Did nobody want to learn how to actually play the game?

Welcome to a lack of crossplay, many people going "screw capcom yar", a game where if you get hit by a good player putting down your controller entirely isn't exactly a bad choice, and everyone being on SF6, Tekken 8, or to an extent GG Strive all combined making an old game fall right back to where it's been for years: in a niche community (this niche community just happens to be loud)

I play offline.

update it w/ crossplay and its forever an easy way to get people to play this game

thats all ports ever should be, most casuals would rather stick to modern ez FG's then what could be considered the godfather of "1 player round" FG's

Yeah to this day I'm not sure why more fighting games don't have some kind of crossplay. But I also believe a little of what Kairi said as well, with the community being small but loud. However the more thought I put into that the more I simply don't buy it, only because this game has made so many waves throughout fighting games.
I'm not too sure on what you mean by "1 player round" fighting games but I do agree with people wanting to play modern fighting games more often than the older ones.
I guess I'm more disappointed that there was such a mass exodus from the game because people didn't want to learn how to play with the big boys, and again I'm not even good at the damn thing, I just wish more people wouldn't hop on a bandwagon.

they aint on PC my guy

[0wnz0r]

well these games r on other stuff already n most ppl dont see a big incentive to move over n stay here. im jus happy i got the best marvel games in my library that i can play any time i get an urge officially. i never been the type to grind ranks online all day.

plus im sure the base is spread out due to every game bein a banger.

Fightcade bruh

[View The Phenom]

At this point, anyone still interested in supporting this title is probably playing at locals or within their own private groups.

[Ignus]

It seems the collection hasn't even reached 1 million sales globally, through all the platforms.

Lack of cross play. Gimping Keyboard controls on a PC game. Ranked matches being borked on Day 1. No separation lobbies for new players so that old ones don't utterly ♥♥♥♥ on them. Yea they F'd up quite a bit with this one imo.

What people really want is the trifecta
3rd Strike, MVC2, CVS2 all in one game and if Capcom was being nice they'd throw in Alpha 2, Alpha 3, and SSF2T.

With fightcade you can get access to all of that and a better ranking system as well as lobby system. The only downside is that the games don't feel as crisp.

I'm pretty sure they are, after reading it I can't help but laugh at the word "pusers"
I won't deny them that lmao

Also the full price is way too premium for what these sorts of collections usually go for. No doubt premium Di$ney licensing costs. I got it on a discount, and I still feel like I overpaid. Had it been like $30-35 or something it would have done a lot better.
