Getting Started
The Hyper Guide will continue to grow over time as more and more information is gathered and notated here. So keep your eyes peeled for more and more information in the coming weeks! For now, here is some basic data that you may find useful.
Terminology
Throughout the guide there will be a lot of jargon thrown around and, unless you know what these terms are referring to, it might be difficult to understand some of the more complex lingo and slang used. For example, what is Hit Stun and Block Stun? What's a "Strike" or a "Wall Bounce" or a "Forced Ground Bounce?" What do we mean when we use the word "frames?" So before we begin, please take some time to look over the glossary to familiarize yourself with some of these terms so the rest of the guide will make more sense.
Game Modes
Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 build on the modes of the previous version offering additional functionality and gameplay options. You'll find explanations of the variety of modes below.
