General
The main menu has had an upgrade since CGoH. This is the new main menu in UAS:
- Arcade Mode
- Versus Mode
- Survival Mode
- Time Attack Mode
- Training Mode
- Play Data Mode
- Options Mode
- Shop Mode
- Gallery Mode
- Extra Game-(This is unlocked when you beat Arcade mode and collect the yellow letters to make out the message: "Thank You For Playing" during the credits. You can collect these yellow with either Doronjo and her crew (on a bike-they jump), or with Roll (she flies on the screen with her broom. In order to use Roll in the credits, beat Arcade Mode with Roll).
- Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection Mode-You MUST be connected to the internet in order to play people online. You can either with a router (you can find that online; this is the recommended option) or with Wi-Fi wireless (not recommended).
This is in order. When you hit the start button at the title screen, you are highlighting Arcade Mode.
What is the in-game shop for?
Similar to Marvel V.S. Capcom 2, the more times you play Arcade Mode, Extra Game Mode, Survival Mode, or Time Attack Mode, the more points you earn. In Shop Mode, you can buy artwork, colors three and four for all the characters (note: you must beat Arcade Mode in order to get the additional colors--example: if you want Ryu's 3rd and 4th colors, beat Arcade Mode with Ryu; a message should appear after you beat Arcade Mode with Ryu. Once you get the message, the colors for Ryu should be available for purchase), movies, and information about the roster and the stages.
There are five Hidden Characters. They are:
- Capcom Side:
- Frank West
- Zero
- Tatsunoko Side:
- Joe the Condor
- Tekkaman Blade
- Yatterman-2
Here is how to unlock them:
- Capcom Side:
- Beat Arcade Mode with three different Capcom characters to unlock Frank West
- Beat Arcade Mode with six different Capcom characters to unlock Zero.
- Tatsunoko Side:
- Beat Arcade Mode with three different Tatsunoko characters to unlock Tekkaman Blade.
- Beat Arcade Mode with six different Tatsunoko characters to unlock Joe the Conder.
- Beat Arcade Mode with Tekkaman Blade, Zero, Joe the Condor, and Frank West to unlock Yatterman-2.
Are Giants Banned?
- In the early 2010s, the giants were softbanned, which was a case by case basis, but as of right now giants have no bans against them.
- This has lead to the "Phampy Clause", which allows a character change under these two specific scenarios
- If Player A has already chosen their characters before Player B and Player B choses a giant, then player A gets the opportunity to reselect their characters.
- As well, if player A and B play a match using non-giants and player A loses their match and goes to character select and choses a giant, then player B is allowed to change their team.
Are any stages banned?
- If playing on original Wii Hardware it's highly recommended to stay on Training stage and at the very least avoid Burning Wasteland/Orbital Cargo Bay
- On Dolphin all stages are acceptable, but Burning Wasteland is soft banned as it causes issues with players who suffer from color blindness as some characters and effects blend into the background. There is also some discrepancy depending on the user's own CPU hardware that may cause players to request to stay on Training Stage to maintain 60FPS but this is a case by case basis.
