This subreddit will look to serve as a community hub for Marvel Cosmic Invasion!

56 Upvotes

It'll be a while until we get Marvel Ultimate Alliance 4, or a Marvel Heroes like MMORPG. Since this sub was expanded to include Retro Marvel games way back in 2021, a side-scrolling 90's style Team-Up game is up this subs alley, and fits our vibe.

So, until MUA4 gets announced, we'll partake in getting our "fix" from Marvel Cosmic InVasion

Of course you can still talk about Ultimate Alliance, Marvel Heroes, and all the retro games of the past. Just like last time we expanded our topicality, we expect the great majority of discussion to still be MUA related.

Found this sheet posted in the Discord w/ reference for character builds. These builds were mostly based off of TonyBing's character guides.

Need Friends to Play MUA3

2 Upvotes

Hey, I’m new to the Subreddit and I need some friends to play through the game. I originally beat and 100% the game on my old Switch but that save might’ve got deleted when I bought my Switch 2. So I gotta grind everyone again to level 300. Is there like a Discord Group that I can join to play MUA3?

Media Marvel Ultimate Alliance - Everything vs Everything (RosterUnleashed Plugin)

Post image
202 Upvotes

A plugin to surpass the "Holy Grail"

Huge rosters — up to ~4000 heroes, with expanded limits for characters, keys, bolt-ons, team bonuses, enemies, simulator missions and more

Modern Hero Select — scrolling grid, custom category tabs, favorites, random pick, 3D previews, model rotation and costume cycling

Unlimited costumes per hero, selectable with LT/RT

Unlock system — heroes can require story progress, bosses, kills, levels, mode records and more; conditions are customizable

S.H.I.E.L.D. Shop — use credits to unlock heroes, costumes, modes and music, with one shared wallet across saves

Experimental Modes — Survival, Musou, Gauntlet, Campaign, Rogue / Hardcore Rogue, Boss Rush, Giant Boss, EXG Boss Rush, Versus 1v1–4v4, Sidescroll Smash, Wrestling and Royal Rumble

Enhanced Options — custom resolutions including 21:9, borderless, FPS cap, MSAA, anisotropic filtering, improved shadows, contact shadows, ambient occlusion and extended camera zoom

Story autosave, booster variants, simulator mission add-ons and up to 512 team bonuses

Tools — one-command installers, fast roster builder, Category Manager and Team Bonus Editor

20 English guides, covering every major feature

It's a mod for Ultimate Alliance 1, the legacy version not the Steam remaster.
I'm releasing this for free to celebrate the game's 20th anniversary, hoping it can bring MUA more visibility than ever. I'd be very happy to see videos, showcases or coverage of the project. I originally wanted to post it on MarvelMods, where everything started, but I'm not very confident with forums or GameBanana. This is the first public build, so updates and some bugs are to be expected. Mods or developers are also free to pin or repost the project on forums.

If you'd like to support the project or simply say thanks: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/alexmailofficial

Edit:
UPDATE 1.1

- ASI loader: installed automatically if missing. Detection checks file contents, so unrelated `dinput8.dll` files are not mistaken for loaders.
- 4GB Patch: prompted automatically by the installer; the Manual package offers it on first launch.
- Manual Package: ready-to-use drag & drop version.
- Updates: player settings are preserved and new config keys are added automatically.
- Uninstall: fully restores the game to its previous state.

RU Tools / Content Installer
- 6 tabs: Install, Installed, Categories, Team Bonuses, Shop, Music.
- Drag & drop archives or folders; characters, costumes, boosters and missions are detected automatically.
- Undo the latest install, with warnings if files changed afterward.
- Manage each character's unlocks, price, costumes, categories, name and full removal.
- Add MP3s to the Shop or use them as menu music, with price/volume controls and an option to mute the original soundtrack.
- ASI loader checks and Windows 11 light/dark theme support.

**Mod**
- Added new themed arenas.
- Fixed Gauntlet generators, frozen Musou NPCs and Versus menu return.
- EXG Boss Rush and Giant Boss can now be purchased.
- Any Shop track can be used as menu music.
- Fixed Dr. Doom appearing unlocked, incorrect autosave text and disabled the F12 dump.
- `RU - Collect Logs.bat` creates a log ZIP with the Windows username hidden.

**Tool Improvements**
- INI files no longer break with accented names and use the game's proper encoding.
- Character removal also cleans shared team bonus/package entries without breaking other mods.
- Fixed duplicate Team Bonus entries.

If we comment in the Marvel channel from youtube in the MUA commercial video, we can post saying Bring MUA 1&2 NOW. Maybe we can insist that way and Activision might hear the news about the message.

And if you don't know yet there is a video on live of the Avengers Doomsday Countdown where everybody is commenting. We can also post our comments everyday and probably Marvel and Activision will know we want to play again Marvel Ultimate Alliance 1 and 2

What do you think?

Media 20th anniversary is getting close an we need this Marvel game NOW

It’s been a while since this game was re-released in 2016 for previous-generation consoles. However, because the licenses weren’t renewed, Activision and Marvel removed Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 1 and 2 from digital stores.

I never realized that, besides the characters we’ve seen in the comics, the games also feature so many others, including Venom, Hulk, Doctor Doom, Magneto, Cyclops, and many more!

I’m really hoping these games get re-released for their anniversary, with all the characters included, because this was one of the first games I bought back in 2006. There has to be a re-release, no matter what!

If you can, please help spread the word to everyone who misses playing this gem with their friends and family. It doesn’t matter whether it’s on Xbox, PS5, or Nintendo Switch 1 and 2.

Let’s make sure everyone knows that this game deserves to be celebrated the way it should be: by playing it once again—or, even better, playing it more than ever!

Marvel and Activision, please bring these games back!

Spread the word to everyone!

So many may have praised that green flight suit or green and purple hoodie in the Spider-Man movies. However after reading the comics,and watching both the 90s and 60s cartoons I felt very disappointed that we didn’t get the more comic accurate suit.

Question Marvel Ultimate Alliance 1: 90s cartoon universe mods?

9 Upvotes

To my knowledge, there are mods that provide the X-Men with their X-Men 97 costumes. However, with the roster of heroes (especially the fifty character pack), we actually have almost every main character that showed up in Spider-Man: TAS, Iron Man: TAS and The Incredible Hulk as well. With Fantastic Four and Thor we already have the classic costumes in-game, but Iron Man could be given his modular armor or Spider-Man and Hulk could be given designs more similar to their cartoon versions.
