#NoXmenNoBuy
Listening to the devs trying to justify not including Xmen on the roster is laughable. When we all know is MCU calling all the shots.
There was recently a leak about the characters, and people picked up on the fact that a lot of classic characters aren't there, specifically the X-Men characters like Magneto and Sentinel. How do you guys feel about people being hung up on that?
Peter Rosas: If you were to actually think about it, these characters are just functions. They're just doing things. Magneto, case and point, is a favorite because he has eight-way dash and he's really fast, right? So our more technical players, all they want to do is triangle jump and that kind of stuff. Well guess what, Nova can do the same thing, Captain Marvel can do the same thing. Ultron can do the same thing. Go ahead and try them out.
It's just the function that people are associating with the character, and there's no shortage of that.

Only picking Magneto because he is an 8way dash function??? Talk about missing the mark...
QFT. No X-Men/No Buy.
Staples of the series like Wolverine, Magneto, Sentinel, Storm, Cyke, Juggernaut, and even the FF's Dr. Doom (not to mention other fun characters we had in the past as well like Gambit, Iceman, Spiral, Marrow, Sabertooth, Deadpool, Cable, Psylocke, Colossus, Jean Grey, X-23, Omega Red, Apocalypse, Silver Samurai, Rogue, etc)...gone because the Disney Marvel promotion machine. It sucks that promoting their movies has trickled down into their gaming and other products that they would willingly remove characters to avoid promoting Fox. It sucks that movie deals are having this this kind of effect on the comics/games/toys. Now we are getting characters we never even asked for (and characters the community have asked for are being ignored like Mr. Fantastic, The Thing, Bishop, ArchAngel, Nightcrawler, The Human Torch, Mystique, Forge, Namor, etc) and seeing main stays removed, and we're supposed to be blind to it. It's going to be the first MvC game I'm not buying on launch, if ever, that's for sure.
The X-Men started this series (X-Men Children of the Atom > X-Men Vs. StreetFighter) and every entry included Wolverine for instance, until now.
