2023 MAJOR UPDATE!!! MVCI will be shut down in October 24th 2023

[76561198034985543]

Friends, I am currently employed with Capcom I got through with my internship, these days I am working on Resident Evil 4 Remake

It is with a heavy heart that I regret to inform everyone that this game MVCI is planned to be completely and permanently shut down in October 2023 of this year.

It is unfortunate that it must come to this but let us praise the lord that none of us were stupid enough to spend money on this game.

You have been warned not to buy this trash.







UPDATE from Lardgaro 3.0

At first I wasn't sure if this news was for real so I decided to make a joke thread because I figured it was likely fake however the same source who provided me with the shut down date of Marvel Heroes Omega has now given me a shutdown date for MVCI. A HUGE part of why this game is being shut down is poor sales due to just how nasty the graphics in this game looks, even workers at Capcom takes jabs at how bad MVCI looks.

I should not have made rants and trolling goofing off in my original post because this is indeed serious.
But my frustrations with MVCI and how the X-Men has been treated really hurt me, the fact that this game is being shut down is very painful for me to accept, I paid full price for this on PS4 because I think the gameplay is amazing and I still do enjoy this game.

I accurately gave the date when Marvel Heroes Omega would be shut down in 2017 and it happened, it is a shame that post no longer exists as the MH forums both on Steam and Original forum was completely shut down by Marvel. However I was the one who made the thread warning against buying further microtransactions in Marvel Heroes even as far back as when David Brevik left Gazillion. My source told me as far back as then Gaz was going bankrupt when I made the post the thread was deleted.

My same source who works as a contractor in the industry has given me a date for when MVCI will be taken down from the Steam Store and it will be October 2018

I know that nobody has any reason to believe me, but I ask that you guys screen shot my post here and just wait for October and you will see for yourself. My source said that work has been done on a Season 2 for MVCI, there are DLC characters that were in development, however work was halted halfway and the season 2 pass was ordered to be discontinued by Capcom.

Currently Capcom has plans to release only 3 more DLC characters separately they will be released individually but it is not polished and it is not guaranteed to be released either, the decision on this is still pending, work was ordered to be stopped when they were halfway with the 4th season 2 character. Please note that Disney has NOTHING to do with MVCI, it is Marvel's decision to shut down MVCI and pull it from EVO as it has drawn too much negative publicity and complaints, the reality is Capcom wanted MVCI at EVO but Marvel refused.

And FYI, the realistic artstyle had NOTHING to do with Marvel, they never gave any orders on how the art must look, the artstyle was done by Capcom because this game was the first fighting game that was built in-house by Capcom in over a decade. The problem was Capcom did not have the talent or the resources in-house to pick whatever artstyle they wanted, the resources and talent was extremely limited. Also the reason Captain Marvel looked better than Chun Li at first is because Captain Marvel was outsourced to a designer from France. The reason it took so long to fix Chun Li's face was because they had to outsource her to another designer to do the fixes, those "fixes" were not done by Capcom so I am just letting you guys know. This is why they didn't fix dante or anyone else.

Regardless if you believe me or not, it is what it is, Come October and you will see for yourself.

There were actual plans on releasing X-Men characters for this game, it had nothing to do with licensing issues, they were to be released in the form of DLC however Marvel pulled the plug due to the poor sales of MVCI and negative publicity, a little too late I guess.

My source managed to give me some insight into the game industry and some info on the development of MVCI that explains why it turned out the way it did. He assures me that this game will be pulled as Marvel has already made their decision.

His contract has been canceled along with everyone else who were ordered to do free lance work on MVCI, for all the bashing I gave MVCI from now on I have nothing further to say about this game, the fact that this is going to be pulled means the end of the MVC franchise as we know it, I have great memories of playing this in the arcade back in the 90's when X-Men vs Street Fighter was first released, I apologize for all the negative things I have said about MVCI as I never imagined that it would go down like this.

Can you give us the sources where you found this information? Also, aren't you forgetting they're making X-Men: Dark Phoenix?

Hi there I got this news from a trusted insider source the same source who told me that Disney was shutting the game Marvel Heroes Omega.

I have no reason to believe this is false, I agree the x-men part shutting down seems like maybe just an idea they have and they likely won't do it, but they are trying to replace X men with Inhumans. If they could wipe out X men and get the same audience for inhumans they would shut down X men in a heart beat.

I am not surprised, this game is already dead as it is, even EVO Director said that Disney dropped support for this game, so why are anyone surprised?

This is the dumbest thing I've read today. Thank you for the laughs.

Does it actually matter if this rumor is true or not? what exactly would it even change?

Disney shutting down MVCI would be no different than the MVCI we currenty have, game is completely dead both in terms of playerbase, support from devs and tournaments has been abandoned, DLC and Season Pass and Costumes have also been abandoned. Nobody plays this game so it might aswell be vaporware.

I'm laughing at the dude's "libtards want 100 bathrooms, x-men are macho and alpha" ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, not at his ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ rumour.

Well, I'm laughing at his ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ rumour a little bit.

Well how many gender pronouns do they demand we memorize or face jail time?

Last I heard it was 72

I heard they went a step further, we now have something known as gender neutral. And they demand we raise our cats and dogs to be gender neutral aswell. Not sure if this has anything to do with X men not being included into MVCI but it wouldn't surprise me, I have come to expect anything from the libtard generation these days.

I really hope to god this trash gets taken off of Steam, PSN, and Xbox Live for good. Nobody's playing it and it downright shows thanks to the player count. I want my money back! 😡

[KL36720]

Hah!! Fat chance.

Unless if Infinity War, Deadpool 2, & Ant-Man & Wasp Promo Ads are around after Panther movie is done, this game’s Season 2 would be saved, as long Capcom, & mostly both Disney & Marvel never made their mistakes again by not involving movie universe rights issues anymore. I’ve been talk about this (movie rights issues) multiple times before launch, & then this happens after launch for their (Capcom, Disney/Marvel) ignorance from the fans feedbacks: Too many rage quitting & very slow sale unit progresses, regarding of the rosters (mostly on Marvel side & some missing very important playables for story mode EPs on Capcom side).

[76561198034985543]

i updated the thread, I won't be including any goofy alt right jokes from now on as this matter is now serious.

Check my original post. This game will be shut down October 2018

My source managed to give me some insight into the game industry and some info on the development of MVCI that explains why it turned out the way it did. He assures me that this game will be pulled as Marvel has already made their decision.

Yeah I actually expect this game to be erased even before October.

This seems to be a trend with Marvel they did the same thing with Marvel Heroes Omega they shut down the game and I along with many others had supported that game a great deal, we were never refunded.

Here is some advice, do not purchase any Marvel game this is what they do, they give a license and when the game doesn't make them enough money they pull it. In the case of MVCI it did the opposite not only did it not make them money it gave them negative publicity.

Marvel pulling this from the store wouldn't even make a difference since nobody is even buying this game. So I don't see the need to pull it but it appears this game garnered too much negative publicity.

I blame Capcom for this, had capcom put in a PROPER budget into this game, not be greedy with releasing the only good characters behind a DLC paywall, we wouldn't be in this position today.

Now this game is so far dead and gone that the thought of releasing X men is no longer on the table for Capcom what a joke.... It is Amazing how Capcom and Marvel have managed to kill off this franchise.

[WayOfThePhoenix]

Good. I'll be waiting for the day this pile of donkey manure gets taken off of Steam come October. =D

[NeoTurfMaster]

It’s very sad, but inevitable. The MvC2 port for iOS, despite its mediocrity, was more complete than this game, I’ll admit.
