Title: How big would you prefer a shipping roster for an XLM/MUA game to be?
Post by: Oddark123 on January 09, 2011, 08:30PM
I think it's fair to say most of us are here because we like all the cool additional characters and boosters the fine modders have put out but if you were in charge of creating a game similar from scratch how many people would you probably set up in it.

I loved MUA (still do) but going into a game called Ultimate Alliance everybody has there own favorites they'd like to see get in but at the same time we do know that are a certain amount of characters that just have to be in it. Now XML opens up more possibilities but I think we can assume it's going to be a long wait to expect some people to make the base roster.

I'd attempt to try and set up a base 30 roster if I could.

I'd pick 30 for the initial roster. Go for 36 to 40 after DLC.

I think they should do like 30, but fans pick the characters, like they set up a poll and you pick who you want in and the characters with the most votes will get made, and then if some of them tied, they will pick just those, and make a re vote and then out of those who win the take how ever many they still need!

personally, i would like devs to create a special page where you can freely download and add any new character they can create (that pretty much feels like DLC). it will be cool to have at least 50 characters :)

50 was the first number that came to my mind too.  We certainly have more than that available here.

call me ambitious, but I'd like a 60+ roster. the following:

01 Captain America
02 Ironman
03 Thor
04 Ms. Marvel
05 Scarlet Witch
06 Vision
07 Quicksilver
08 Black Panther
09 Wonderman
10 Hercules
11 Black Widow
12 Ant-Man
13 She Hulk
14 Wasp
15 Falcon
16 Hawkeye
17 Doctor Strange
18 Valkyrie
19 Namor
20 Silver Surfer
21 Hulk
22 Moonknight
23 Punisher
24 Daredevil
25 Deadpool
26 Ronin
27 Iron Fist
28 Luke Cage
29 Mister Fantastic
30 Human Torch
31 Thing
32 Invisible Woman
33 Nick Fury
34 X-Man
35 Professor X
36 Storm
37 Emma Frost
38 Beast
39 Cyclops
40 Iceman
41 Angel
42 Colossus
43 Nightcrawler
44 Psylocke
45 Shadowcat
46 Gambit
47 Rogue
48 Wolverine
49 Phoenix
50 Adam Warlock
51 Captain Marvel
52 Ghost Rider
53 Quasar
54 Elektra
55 Blackbolt
56 Gladiator
57 Magneto
58 Mystique
59 Green Goblin
60 Venom
61 War Machine
62 Sabretooth
63 Banshee
64 Juggernaut
65 Shang Chi
66 Black Cat
67 Spider-Man
68 Spider-Woman

I know, an awful lot. But these are the significant Marvel Characters IMO. Except maybe for X-Man, but he's just my personal choice to represent the Summers-Grey offspring. A few villians just to spice it up, but not the most powerful and threatning ones (they'd be the bosses). Also villians that could have motive, such as being controlled by the government (Venom, GG), being paid as a mercenary (Sabretooth) or those that sometimes are heroes depending on the circumstance (Juggernaut, Magneto).

that would be my ultimate full roster.

I like your roster! It's really good, I would just like to maybe squeeze, Rachel, Cloack and Dagger, and Firestar in there and I will love it even more!

Post by: fox456 on January 11, 2011, 03:41PM
LOL, now that I think about it, even 72 slots isn't enough!  :D  I'd add another 10 myself -- Medusa, Gorgon, Crystal, Karnak, Triton, Mantis, Moondtragon, Nighthawk, Sentry and Ka-Zar.  (Five minutes from now, I'll probably think of some more!)

Same here lol. When I'm bored I'll make rosters but every 5 minutes I'll add a bunch more till I reach 60 (which has been my highest) until I delete the whole thing.

Post by: Oddark123 on January 11, 2011, 08:17PM
Yeah I fail all the time to create a dream roster. I start off and can't decide as I keep going.

Although since they do ports for other systems with exclusive characters, I always thought it be crazy if they did one for an older-system and gave them Ka-Zar as an exclusive character.
Title: Re: How big would you prefer a shipping roster for an XLM/MUA game to be?
Post by: Midnightphoenix on January 11, 2011, 08:22PM

Post by: Jerkman on January 11, 2011, 10:09PM
since you added Mary Jane, Gwen Stacy AND Aunt May, why not go on and add Amalgam characters - Marvel characters combined with DC? Why not, they are part marvel anyway. I would add THEM to my roster if possible
Title: Re: How big would you prefer a shipping roster for an XLM/MUA game to be?
Post by: Oddark123 on January 11, 2011, 11:20PM
I don't know about them but I do have the perfect power for Uncle Ben, he'll have the power to die after one hit and not be playable for the rest of the game.

More seriously if I could have the larger option, then I'd totally go for 50 all together. Whether that be feasible for a regular system, but we can achieve it and go past it on the PC at least with our talented modders.

Yes I totally forgot about her! And as for Amalgam characters, that is not a Marvel serious, it is Amalgam, like Dc id DC so even if you wanted them they probably wouldn't be in, and I do like some of those characters, it's just they are not directly Marvel, unless they made it where you travel to alt universes and one is Amalgam, but other wise I think not

But i remember someone made a Thanoseid costume, why not make a Super-Soldier, Dark Claw or Spider-Boy mod (or at least costumes)?

Idk, I thought that you couldn't because it is not Marvel, it is Amalgam, I think it would be like making a Batman skin for Wolverine, but I would like a Firebird skin, because she is cool, and Storm's Ama outfit is cool to, but what ever

She would be although I kinda like Sinister as a man better. I did prefer Loki as a woman though (I think I just loved the costume)

well, if you liked female loki you can always have karnilla. the look is almost the same and she's nearly as bad and even more powerful. even Odin is cautious with her.

Which is why i think my idea is perfect: developers keep making more additions to the roster, and gamers only have one thing to think about: who do you want to download, and who do you want to be available next

Update: oops, it's actually two things instead of one :)
