I’ve been into gaming for a very long time, never really got in to the whole 2d fighting game genre though. I decided I wanted to change that, so I recently decided to pick up UMvC3.
First day playing (about a week ago), I decided to jump into online mode immediately. I got my ass handed to me several times which I expected for the most part due to the fact that I didn’t know any combos, team setups, strategy, etc.
I went to training mode and started gradually learning the basics, went back online. Got raped once again. Then decided I needed to go on the internet and learn the characters, terminology, setups, etc. Started trying out tonnes of different team setups, assists, positioning, etc.
Went back to training mode, practiced a lot more, began to grasp the concept. Started actually winning some online matches, still had a fair share of losing.
I’m now at the point where I have decided who I want as my “main team”, this includes:
Point: Deadpool, assist=quick work.
Second: Dante, assist=jam session.
Anchor: Doctor Doom, assist=plasma beam.
So now I have a few questions for you guys…
-
Thoughts on my team and tips on how to improve it? I really do enjoy using deadpool even though he isn’t the greatest.
-
When doing things such as “Mission Mode”, I can never seem to string the combos fast enough, even though I swear I am pressing the buttons as fast as humanly possible. What’s up with that, am I missing something?
-
Does Doctor Doom have an OTG, if so what is it?
-
Lasty, and this may just be due to lack of practice. But when doing attacks such as “Katana-Rama”, the stick motions seem to be very time consuming and awkward to do. It usually only works 50% of the time as well. Lack of practice, or am I just missing something?
Thanks to all who respond, very much appreciated.
