Do you think...

Marvel or the producers of the the game have looked through these forums and used the mods? Maybe even based some of the new moves on some of the new ones modders have made?

Probably not but I noticed some of Iron Fist's moves looked quite similar. Though they probably just reused Elektra stuff.

They probably checked it out to see what we had done, but i doubt they used some of the mods moves for the new characters.

I'm under the impression that they have the right to use whatever the users of the game (aka us) make for it (at least that's what I think it says on the very first screens when you turn the game on).

Second, if I were a programmer, I'd definitely check the mods, and grab the better ideas, at least as a starting point.

Third, Iron Fist is the only 100% original mod character that's going to be in MUA2. From the rest of the roster:
a) they were originally in MUA1, either out of the box or DLC.
b) their mods were based on their XML appearances (Juggernaut, Gambit, Jean Grey)
c) their mods don't exist (Green Goblin, Songbird, Penance)
so there isn't a lot they could've copied.

Thanks for that Gevth, I was thinking that same thing but was to lazy to type it up.

Yea guess your right Gevth

I read somewhere that Iron Fist was going to be a PSP exclusive and he was pulled at the very last minute, so the PSP version of MUA still (apparently) has Iron Fists files on the UMD. They could easily have ripped moves from that.

Shauny's right when looking through the charinfo.xml you can find Iron Fist and Longshot as exculsives for PSP.

And I don't think that they'll look at this website unless they thought "Let's see what the modders and talented people think of us" so it's a maybe for me.

Nope.  He and Longshot were mentioned in one place on the UMD, and only one place.  So at one time they were planned, but there's nothing left to salvage, and from 10+ years of experience I'd say they weren't very far along if there was nothing left but two mentions in one file.

Yeah I remember they said how Psylocke was originally to be in the game.

Thanks for clearing that up

It's strange that both of those are in charinfo, while the eventual psp exclusives weren't.

That is weird. Perhaps when those two were scrapped the other four were put in. What does charinfo do for the game?

[Dihan]

Charinfo is the file that tells the game what characters are available when. You can't simply change the lines for Iron Fist and Longshot, though, as (without mods) they don't exist anywhere else in the game.

Do they still contain there actors (skins)?
