Bearded Ryu

Blessed Thighs Chun Li


Cammy's is cool too.

[nachobro]

I like that Cammy one. I preordered from PSN, but I'm betting these will all be available for purchase day one.

[Take My Breh Away]

Bearded Ryu is the design they should have used for this game in the first place. Bad-ass. I guess PC gamers are getting screwed on pre-order bonuses though.

Also here's some direct footage of Mika with one of the producers playing as Mika



I still maintain my stance of "Capcom you assholes" since I used Mika and Karin in SFA 3. Mika's handspring clutch 360+P was god their trolling since it had start up invulnerability during the flip and a ridiculously huge hurtbox to catch people. Her command run super is gone and her bunny hop over the opponent is a command throw. Now she has to be completely in instead of being dangerous at range. (A and X-ISM Mika was trash. V-ISM mika was actually quite high tier because V-ISM da gawd for peach loops while you could build pressure with her range pokes and the constant threat of her handspring clutch and her air command throw as a punish)

The new dropkick is pretty neat, she's much faster without the need of V-ISM and she has her normals from A3 so thats cool. I'm just not sure where Capcom's going with this "You have to come to her or she gets a buff" playstyle when the old style was pretty unique (Although really just trying not to rip off Shermie from KOF too much)

New character Rashid announced.

[nachobro]

An arab dude revealed on 9/11? Trollno strikes again 

The tornado shit looks cool though

[Rufus]

Is that a jetpack?

Also, Tekken did it first. Copycom.

Arabs in the club doing Aegis reflector

Did what...?  An Arab character? 

Bruh.  You serious?  Breh.  Brah.

[Rufus]

Dead series don't count.

[bork]

[Rufus]

Nah, tried to make u mad tho.

[Kara]

  لكنه مسلمي؟

[bork]

لكنه مسلمي؟

Google translate sez:

Muslims Committee

[Rufus]

Mine says: "But the Muslims?"

[Kara]

"But is he a Muslim? "

Don't use Google Translate on an inflected language that doesn't commonly have "to be" in the present tense, baka kafirs.

[Rufus]

 

[Kara]

Like a kafir would use the dual form of the genitive case.

is that a power scouter

[The Legend of Sunblade]

Karin confirmed on the TGS stream.

[Take My Breh Away]

Fucking yes 

She looks much quicker than her SFA3 version. Her V-Skill seems to be her reversal instead of a command as well. Looks a ton of fun.

Surprised they haven't given a release date though. It looks like it's coming in fairly rapidly to the point I'd almost expect late January/Early February (Man that period will be murder on fighting game fan wallets since you have SF V, Mortal Kombat X Encore and Killer Instinct Season 3/PC version during those three months)

[bork]

It's funny how "plain" the character feels after Mika and Rashid.

[nachobro]

She looks great. Guess that leak was right, Urien and Alex next 

Fuck those dumb chumps

[mormapope]

No Blanka makes me sad.

Most hated character for online play, dudes can't handle wild combat. 

[Kara]

Karin-chan's laugh in next-gen.

[Mods Help]

Is he still SPD?

How come Capcom won't update their character designs? Like, why are these characters looking the same exact way since SF2? There's really no excuse. Ryu's beard look for instance should be his default.

[nachobro]

I can't find his movelist so not sure if he still uses 360 commands. Everyone else that had them before now uses half-circles so it could go either way

[Mods Help]

Have Capcom commented on whether or not charge characters are in or not?

[nachobro]

Chun, Bison, and Necalli all have charge moves. I don't think anyone is 100% charge though, maybe Necalli.

[mormapope]

So they can sell alternate costume DLC. Ain't that hard to figure out.

The amount of whining from Third Strike fans on the internet is beyond annoying. And now there's revisionist history that Street Fighter 4 snubbed Third Strike fans.

Makoto
Ibuki
Dudley
Hugo
Yang
Yun
Elena

That's 7 characters out of 20 that were added to SF4 


 

[Mods Help]

It would make more sense to have different costumes for defaults but sell classic costumes as dlc, though. 

Also, SF3 sucks. The only character from that game SFV needs are Alex and Urien. SF3 fans are the worst SF fans.

[mormapope]

No one would buy the classic outfits though, it works for Mortal Kombat since the character designs get shittier as time goes on


Third Strike is a good fighting game, but I'm not clamoring for any SF3 characters to return. I'm a fan of styles of play a lot more than how stylish or cool a character looks. Love SF3 character designs, don't like how some of those characters play.

[nachobro]

That V Skill sounds awesome and hilarious

[mormapope]

Apparently the next Street Fighter V event is in Brazil or South America?

[Rufus]

It would make more sense to have different costumes for defaults but sell classic costumes as dlc, though. 

Huh? The amount of classic variants is finite, so you would gimp the sales potential from the get go.

[bork]

I would have said Zangief being back is kind of boring, but that v-skill saves him.   

[bork]

I agree that the returning characters should get updated character designs and the alts should be the defaults.  Namco used to be great at doing this with Tekken although with recent entries, you get characters looking the same as the previous games.

[nachobro]

The salt is fantastic. Can't wait til I can cash in my avatar bets. 

[nachobro]

The salt at Dhalsim should be good too, but probably not as bad as this cause Sim is a baller.

But when Juri gets shown as the first DLC...oh lawd 

[brob]

I'm out of the loop, are there conflicting reports on what is going to be announced?

[bork]

I'm out of the loop, are there conflicting reports on what is going to be announced?

IIRC the previous prediction reports are now wrong, following Zangief.  Not sure where this Dhalsim stuff is coming from though.

[Kara]

There are still 3S fans?

[nachobro]

i saw a list from a friend of a friend with a list of all the characters on it plus one dlc. it was pretty old even at the time so i didn't think it was accurate but its been pretty spot on so far 

[thisismyusername]

There are still 3S fans?

Me. Parry wasn't a bad mechanic. But it was FUCKING BROKEN as shit if you mastered it.

[nachobro]

 

[thisismyusername]

Wow, that's the new Brazilian character?

Much better than Blanka. Depending on her playstyle, I'd consider playing her. Give her a more "punk"-ish outfit with that hairstyle and I'm game.

That's my stance on it too, with a pinch of liking a mostly fresh character roster.

Been burned by the rolly ball mixups and walking into electricity?
 

Blanka in SF4 was a great mix of good normals, easy but effective mixups, and specials that are great for mindgames but terrible for general use. He has gimmicks, but they aren't fucked up beyond belief.

[mormapope]

Looks like she's a spicy Latina version of Abel. Overhead kick special, command grabs maybe, and either a fireball or maybe a reflect attack like Rose.

Nah, I just don't like his character design. I'm not salty about people playing him. I'm just sick of seeing his green ass.

[thisismyusername]

People who either don't want SF2 characters or "silly & weird" characters in SF.

Shidoshi's post on GAF had me hard. I get what she's saying, but still. Kinda stupid to say "moves are complex which is why people stick to one character" and then turn around and go "Zangief!? FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU" toward a SF2 character returning for people that want to play that character because they know that character.

[Mods Help]

Weird SF characters are the worst. Blanka sucks. I can tolerate stuff like Dhalsim. He does Yoga, he can stretch! Or shooting fireballs. Or psycho crushes. But stuff like Blanka, those SF3 characters, or awful characters like Hakan or Rufus drive me nuts. All of them suck. For me it's not even a canon thing. I just don't like them and never have. SF is perfectly capable of being goofy while still not straying within the confines of the tone it creates. Sakura and Dan are great examples. So it's hardly because I'm a stick in the mud. But then you have someone like Seth, who has a giant Ying Yang on his stomach and I just instantly say,"that character blows and I will judge anyone who uses him." But I'm anal when it comes to fighting game rosters. I have the same problem with Tekken. Here we have a series with cool looking guys with lighting gloves and capoeira users, and on the other end...kangaroos with gloves and fighting bears. I just don't like that.

I like it when fighting games stick to similar casts. If you go weird, go completely weird (Darkstalkers). If you go normal, go completely normal (Virtua Fighter). If you're going to make your game have human characters but with fireballs, cool, but don't mix it with the stupid weird shit. SNK games like KOF, Fatal Fury, Last Blade, and Samurai Showdown are great examples! You'll have dudes doing bustah wolfs, but you'll NEVER see anyone fighting a kangaroo with boxing gloves.

Call me a stick in the mud all  you want, but weird characters are and always will be unless it's a weird ass fighting game in the Darkstalkers/Project Justice/Rival Schools/Versus/Guilty Gear/Blaz Blue vein.

Laura looks cool.
