hhi im creating a marvel fighting game with i hope a downloadable character feature the characters available to play as initially will be venom carnage iron man war machine ultron black heart flubber wolverine hulk collosus scream omega red sabertooth magneto nimrod x 23 lady death strike toxin spiral juggernaut hybrid deathlok deadpool lizard forearm and ghost rider. with apocalypse and on slaught as boss characters. opinions on this line up. char suggestions. etc. i will post pics of the development as the project progresses
im working on a revised list planning to remove some of the outdated characters and add in some updated characters in there place. example sabertooth is going to go and be replaced by wild child... hybrid will go among others. silver samari will appear with a new suit design and a replacement cybernetic hand as he lost it to wolverine. apocalypse will now be the only boss ive decided thanos and onslaught would be too powerful mutants to be used against the average class mutants that will appear fighting system would not allow for a believeable portrayal of them. though i dont yet have pics available yet i am in the process of sketching and designing concepts for the game. a complete new list will be posted soon. once again comments or suggestions about the characters gameplay or have some positive encouragement just post here.

i was thinking about it the advantage to what i was planning was a downloadable characters system... with the ability to download and fill a certain amount of adable charater slots. a fantasic four character was a consideration but even though i do have characters like wolverine and spiderman i would like to get some no name characters to get away from the whole capcom xmen theme. like i say i have decided to revise the list and i will quite a bit as things go on. the only problem with characters like daredevil and as im starting to think about some of the characters i picked like deadpool is their practical usabilty in a fighting game. as an example special moves for deadpool are going to be next to impossible to implement due to the main ability he has is near immortality... kind of hard to see a real way to use that. cyclops will be on the new list as will reed rihchards. (i thought about using thing but he would just be another behemoth in a list thats already abundant with his type character.) also i kind of want to get a mixture of the different marvel factions(xmen spider man ghost rider fantastic four etc) so keep that in mind when recomending characters. as you can see the first list has an ubundance of spiderman characters which i plan to cut down on quite a bit as alot of them have similar or identical powers. anyhoo the game engine may be something to consider when suggesting characters. this will a 3d style fighter with a combo sys unlike xmen before

actually i am... i am skilled in modeling in animation direct x nine and ten engine programming and game development... who knows how far the project will go as i am just a guy with an idea but isnt that were everyone starts? this is a serious project that i have been planning for some time but only recently began concept drawings of. to be honest i am currently posting via cell phone due to the fact that i have recently moved and my computer has yet to arrive at my new place... however my computer is all set with the tools i need as i have had similar projects before and i am quite capable of this one. it does mean unfortunately though that in the mean time i will have little to no way of sharing what has been acomplished. i sounds boring now and kind of crazy but just hang in there and soon enough there will be proof of actual results...

guess it shouldnt be unexpected someone would be critical... all in time i suppose... cant expect everyone to give constructive feed back... is it too much to respond on the idea that there is a possibility? you could always choose not to post here!
like i had replied before the game wil feature user character slots a person can use to add downloadable characters to fill. as of now there are no plans for an actual character editor per sey but that could change. one step at a time i suppose. as to directly answer your question storm is a consideration though for now i cant say shell be in the origional line up at this point or not. as much as i would like to add every request there is no way to add them all. i know it may sound silly but i would really like to use aut least some characters uhat are kind of less know but worthy in there own right to try and make the game a little out there and a creation all its own, make it stand apart from the games by capcom before it, make it my own instead of another duplicate. the capcom games are some of my favorite and part of my inspiration for wanting to persue a project like this... only instead i will use them for guide lines to set the bar of quality and like i paid before not duplicate them.

??? k thought that explained it... i cant give a definate answer yet. you have to think about the useability of each character in conjunction with the overall game play. alot of the characters i had originally picked are going to be hard to implement thus the reason im revising the list. with that said maybe a better topic would be locations. all suggestions are still welcome but at this point its hard for me to give a definate yes or no to some questions or suggestions...

* i was just thinking if you could give Cyclops other super moves exposing his spatial awareness ability...
* Daredevil can have two movesets:
> he can be 75% agile and quick 25% weaker in his all red suit with two short billy-clubs having almost identical moveset of Spider-man,
> he can be 25% agile and quick 75% stronger in his black and red armor suit with a long staff billy-club having almost identical moveset of Gambit, esp. Cajun Strike with his staff...
> he can have a 1 hit Maximum Spider as a super and Crawler Assault...
* Human Torch can have some moveset same as Iceman, converting Ice Beam into a fire blast, converting Arctic Attack into Super Nova...
* Thing can borrow movesets with Hulk and Juggernaut, it's nice to see Ben Grimm do a Gamma Charge or a Juggernaut Headcrush...
* you can also add Classic Jubilee to the list... and Havok, Thor, Black Panther, Punisher, Quicksilver, Bullseye, Ghost Rider, Beast (can borrow some of Blanka's moveset), Archangel/Angel (can be selected interchangeably), Elektra (can have Psylocke's ninja movesets, not the supers though), Namor, Mr. Fantastic, Invisible Woman, Quasar, USAgent (can be deviated with Captain America by changing his costume and giving him an energy shield, make him stronger but slower, make Cap weaker but quicker), Iron Fist, Doctor Strange, Mister Sinister (you can make him Cyclops' last or second to the last enemy boss),
* you can add other Spidey versions: Scarlet Spider, Black alien costume, and his new red and orange suit...
* you can add Mystique and Morph to the list as random... or include them as well...
neat thanx umm im not making a capcom style fighter if you didnt catch that... this will a 3d fighter with 3d environments. so the character movesets will be completely original as will the specials... as for the alternate costumes i have thought about that and g really like that idea. scarlet spider was a thought for spiderman some of the characters i was thinking of redesigning costumes for like silver samuri. not to the point that they are unrecognizable but kind of just so they fit more into the theme. then i would use their orginals as alternates to keep the i cant believe you changed him people from complaining. the combo system will be a combanation design of a opener linker finisher style that games like ki use and a multi button mk style that works as follows an auto doubler or special will start the combo then a two or three button mk style will link the combo to another segment or to a finisher. other style will include using a super as a combo or even using a super as a finisher. the rounds will be a continuous round style were the victor of the first round carries over his first round energy super etc as like in the ki series. basically i really want to make this a very fast paced system have very in your face combos and specials that are easy to implement. thats the one thing i loved about the ki games was that feeling of totally dominating with some crazy combos and the nice flow it all had. though i dont want it to be a one combo ends type thing

more of a if you really need to the option to really wail on someone is avaible but the combos will be a bit harder to land than in ki so that they arnt the whole focus of the game.

locations so far: ny downtown, canadian forest. weaponx compound, the savageland, blackbird hanger, sentinal manufacturing facility, syberian waste, everglades, a church, an offshore oil platform, japanese bamboo forest with ancient ruins, the subway, an underwater observatory, an office building inside, an aircraft carrier, and a texas ghost town. all environments will have destroyable objects most will have multi platforms and some will actually tie in together.

i really like the random idea you had using misteque and morph as the random character select. very nice that is something i will really cosider using thanx. ideas like that are what really make the layout of a good well thought out game
