Just a warning to new players out there, you will be utterly destroyed online if you even attempt to play multiplayer, no i'm not bragging or being in any way smug about my 'skill' I utterly suck at MvC2 and that's fine i'm dealing with it, i'm just throwing a warning out there to people who think the competition is going to be equally as fresh until people start learning the game.
Well, unfortunately, I was afraid that wouldn't be the case, and I was right.
MvC2 has a solid following already, and the game itself is unchanged. So naturally, with the changes in HD Remix, and SFIV being a completely new game, the level of competition was much lower in the beginning months, as even the pros were learning the ins and outs of those specific games. HD Remix not so much, people were still ace at that, but it had such a huge appeal it wasn't too hard to find some other inexperienced players to beat down.
MvC2 maybe not the case, unless it sells a bucketload of copies in the next couple days. So far i've played maybe 10 or 15 matches online (and aside from a bunch of random connection errors.. ggrrr) and i've had one match against a player who seemed just as inexperienced as me. Every other match I have been utterly destroyed by people who already know the game completely inside out, i've been on the recieving end of every trick and strat in the book, and Cable, Dr. Doom and Sentinal superteam about 6 times in a row.
So just a friendly warning to everyone out there, the online component of this game is definately not for the squeamish, expect to be annihalated unless you are already quite proficient with the game. If you thought HD Remix and SFIV were unfriendly to new players, this is a whole nother level. Sorry :(
