Additionally, the company has also announced that they are running an online beta program for Street Fighter V on both PC and PlayStation 4. These tests will be used to collect user feedback that will go toward designing the game.

In North America, players that pre-order the game will automatically be entered into the beta program. More details will be announced soon.

Wow, street fighter has been around forever and it's still on V? If they counted each addition it would be more like street fighter 91

Kudos to Capcom on this one. I haven't played since 2 I think.

Besides the different versions of the numbered games, they count Alpha, EX, and the like as different series. So it's waaaaaaay more than V.

He seemed pretty rushdown oriented. But Boxer and Dictator can also play that way so.

brob · « **Reply #132 on:** February 27, 2015, 02:11:41 PM »

Decapre was charge with similar moves to what Charlie is shown using.

I pretty much stopped playing fighting games back in January because I've been missing out on too many other games, but damn that Nash trailer and now this Bison one are making it very hard not to get hyped for this.

I hope we start seeing some new characters soon and I really hope there's a decent number of them this time. I don't want "Street Fighter II plus four new characters" again like how SF4 started out. I suspect that if their claim that this game will have no new versions is true, they'll keep releasing DLC characters instead. Which is fine. I mean, it ultimately would end up costing the same as or more than a new version, but would shut up the whiners.

Characters have their own individual sub-systems now with V-Skills. Neat. (They also have ArcSys to thank for this since Guilty Gear has this) Ryu gets parries with this skill.

Yeah, me too. Makes it finally feel worth it...

...even though it's coming out for PC, too, with cross-play.

And if I had waited to buy a PS4, the price will have dropped or a better model will be out by March 2016.

But hey, USF4 is pretty playable now. That's good. I guess.

Now add Mika ffs

nachobro · « **Reply #149 on:** June 12, 2015, 02:08:26 PM »

Also add Remy. Or Guile with the good parts of Remy's moveset. I'm okay with either.

bork · « **Reply #150 on:** June 12, 2015, 04:18:41 PM »

We got Nash back. Don't need another character like that.

If the rumors are true about the game once again having 16 characters (just like how SF4 started out-- the arcade version had the original 12, plus the four new ones), I hope they go for a more varied roster of returning characters. But I expect to see more characters get released as DLC.

Also really, really hope the returning roster isn't SF2 (with Nash replacing Guile) again. Take from other games. Bring back characters who weren't in SF4. We got Ryu. We got Chun. We got Bison. Throw in a grappler like 'Gief (would prefer Hugo again) and maybe put Cammy in there and that's enough from the SF2 era. If they want to bring back new characters added to SF4 though, that's cool with me. Abel, Juri, Poison, etc.? Sure. Gimme R. Mika back too-- in fact, give her a 360 and put a sole female in that slot this time around.

I bet Alex is going to return, too. He was in Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom, but that died as soon as MvC3 came out.

nachobro · « **Reply #151 on:** June 12, 2015, 08:33:38 PM »

Bah, Nash isn't a charge character anymore and doesn't seem to have a real Flash Kick either.

I can definitely see Juri returning. Maybe Viper too.

I'd like to see Rog return too.

nachobro · « **Reply #152 on:** June 12, 2015, 08:45:54 PM »

I guess so magazine leaked Cammy and Birdie? I'm okay with them.

mormapope · « **Reply #153 on:** June 12, 2015, 08:49:46 PM »

If Cammy returns, it would be nice if she has Decapre's charge moves for teleporting while also having her usual non charge Cammy specials. Would make sense at this point. Less character bloat, more versatile characters in general.

Hope Blanka makes it into the game though.

Yeah that's fine with me. I expect Birdie to pretty much be a new character and massive in size...and wonder if Cammy will still be buns out.

MoxManiac · « **Reply #156 on:** June 14, 2015, 07:29:09 PM »

I always thought Birdie was a cool Zangief/Boxer hybrid, but man with each Alpha game they made him look more and more ridiculous. Hope they do a decent job with him in V.

I WILL learn how to play charge characters this time. I WILL. I have never "gotten" charge characters. I WILL LEARN HOW TO CHARGE.

mormapope · « **Reply #168 on:** July 09, 2015, 01:54:43 PM »

For some charge characters, it comes down to not worrying about their special moves or gimmicks and trying to utilize all their normal attacks. Guile for example in SF4 has an insane neutral game, dude's normals have long distance and high attack power. Blanka's ball specials are good for punishes and mixups, but they're terrible when it comes to attacking someone outright.

When it comes to charging attacks, eventually you'll be able to know if you charged long enough without looking at a clock.

Himu · « **Reply #169 on:** July 09, 2015, 01:56:37 PM »

One tip i heard is that you should always be charging? Like, you do down back and then go forward and do the move and then go back to the down back? idk

nachobro · « **Reply #170 on:** July 09, 2015, 01:59:59 PM »

Yeah as the animation of the move (say, a Sonic Boom) is happening, you should already be charging again. That way you can bust out another Boom or FK right away as needed. But yea, most charge based characters have fantastic normals and command normals (forward+HP as an example) and you'll want to focus on learning those most of all.

Also I dunno if learning charge characters will matter. They seem to be making everyone a mostly motion character :'(

mormapope · « **Reply #171 on:** July 09, 2015, 02:04:55 PM »

That's the main reason why I hope SF4 stays popular/relevant, how many characters are in the game. I also get the feeling that there will be 3 charge characters out of the entire SF5 cast at release.

It'd be nice if new charge characters are introduced.

I know Nash has a motion for his Boom now. Chun's fireball is back to motion again too. I believe Bison is still charge, but he looks a lot different than he has before.

As for Sakura, storyline wise she should have graduated by now. 5 takes place after 3.

They seem to be going by the list that was posted from the 'insider' (Ken Bogard I think it was?) who posted a list of all the characters he claims will be in the game. He was right on the new mechanic being called "V-Trigger" before Capcom said anything.

Nash is no longer a charge character. Bison is. Chun still has charge moves and I am certain there will be more characters than that with charge attacks. If that rumored list is correct, Guile will be in.

Himu · « **Reply #176 on:** July 09, 2015, 02:14:13 PM »

Chun's spinning bird kick is motion too?

No, it's still a charge. I remember people saying it was a fireball motion but the movelists list it as a charge.

Nacho's a bit misinformed here. SFV takes place before SF3. Storyline doesn't matter in these games anyway, however- Sakura shouldn't be a schoolgirl in SF4. They're ignoring character ages now.

Bison looks different because he is supposed to be continuously-cloning himself. The clone body has gotten older or whatever nonsense.

nachobro · « **Reply #179 on:** July 09, 2015, 02:20:49 PM »

Oh damn I thought I'd read it was after. I don't usually pay much attention to story stuff though.

I can't wait to get my hands on the game next week at EVO. Gonna get as many games in as Nash and Cammy in as I can. Good to know Chun is still charge. I'll give her a shot but I've never been much of a Chun player.
