Marvel vs. Capcom 3 Gets Patched

Expect to see less players picking Sentinel in Marvel vs. Capcom 3 from now on, as Capcom has released a small patch that as well as providing other bug fixes, also severely nerfs Sentinel's health, taking it from 1,300,000 to 905,000 according to reports dug up by Shoryuken.

Changes introduced by Marvel vs. Capcom 3's Version 1.02 update include the following:

  • Sentinel's health is now 905,000, down from 1,300,000
  • The Haggar/Spencer freeze glitch is fixed
  • The Spencer loop shown in this video is gone. Spencer's M follow up to ground QCF now bounces him up instead of returning him to the ground, so you don't land and can't keep it going
  • Hit-stun deterioration on Akuma's air Tatsu is now more severe, preventing his infinite
  • This update sets the game up for the new Event mode

So, there you go. No doubt Sentinel will now crop up in teams a little less in Marvel vs. Capcom 3's online versus mode.

  • I didn't think Capcom would care about those things but they did, and they did well in my opinion. It took a while to take Sentinel down especially when people left him in the corner shooting his mouth laser.
  • Maybe there is a good afterall
  • lol capcom
  • What they need to fix is the joining games on ranked matches. I send a lot of time with "failed to create/join games session".
  • No what they need to do is make it to where a win that goes in your license as cheap doesn't even count towards a win or help towards the trophies because I am tired of getting people down to their last character and leaving them with a little bit of health and bam I get move whored into a corner while they use the same blast attack until all three of my characters are out. My win/loss is 4/31 because of that crap yet I can beat the game on the hardest difficulty no problem. Something wrong with that picture?
  • I'm happy to see Capcom taking an interest in what has been happening since MvC3's release and hopefully this patch will deter a few of the sentinal spammers. @4 Just change your single player settings to allow online ranked challenges. I can guarantee you'll be in that many ranked fights you will never make it past the first round of single player.
  • So the online play is cheap (to be fair, so is every game) and the single player is all but pointless because there's nothing to play for. I can totally see why people love this game.
  • Very cool update! Now desk will have to find new ways to break this game! :P But in all seriousness, I'm very glad to see Capcom acknowledging these issues!
  • Nice, @4 I have the same problem @6 I hope this works
  • Ah, trying to get that 5 wins in a row trophy. Damn it!
  • @5 stop crying if your record is so low you need to practice just because you can beat the computer doesn't mean you can beat people they usually can look at the situation and change their strategy better than a computer. What happened to you sounds cheap but no way you had that happen that many times and couldn't get out of it. @10 really that was one of the first trophies I got in the game my first time online I had like a 10 win streak before I lost. I think my license stands somewhere around 32 win-3 loses but I also stopped playing online after the first two weeks now just offline with friends. If anyone wants to challenge me though feel free TheWolfy
  • I don't think there's any strategy to using the same move over and over again I try and play fair and if I use the same move twice too soon I move to another move set to change things up you probably got your 10 kill streak with Ryu, Doctor Doom and Sentinel like every freaking person I fight. I rarely fight against any other combination of characters, Maybe a Wolverine subbed in there so they can use beserker barrage 40 times while I block and try and counter until I die.
  • Anyone know if the trophy list will be the same or changed like Street Fighter IV and Super Street Fighter IV? I've looked all over online and haven't found anything yet. If anyone knows anything about it please send me a message, Thanks. =)
