Street Fighter V - Charlie Nash trailer; beta for all pre-orders in NA

Urien was brown, alive at the end of SF3, and wasn't the only person with a gem.

It's just as likely that it was Gil/Urien who brought Charlie back and sticking one of those gems in his forehead is part of the process.

And by just as likely I mean there's no actual reason to believe any of outside of random ass speculation.

Wouldn't be surprised if the story is about bridging the gap between shadoloo and Gill. Having Gill resurrect (see what I did there?) Charlie and send him after Bison doesn't sound too off from what could happen.
 
Awesome. So hyped that we're getting these kinds of character reveals.

For Nash, it was the day his reveal trailer released.

For Bison...it was Tuesday :p

Whoa... I did not expect Charlie to get Decapre's shenanigans

In that case, give Cammy an SPD and a Lariat so I can win with her

and the "Frankenstein monster" look is wild. It'll take a while to get used to it. I assume that Charlie actually died at some point #FightingGameStories

Now that I think of it, this is his first canon 'present day' appearance. He's appeared so many times that you tend to forget, for what its worth.

All crossovers were non canon and he died in the Alpha prequels, which was the reason Guile sought to destroy Dictator in SF2. So after 24 years and appearing in dozens of games, he's back!
 
The scale of the character models are exaggerated in general, it's the style they're after. I'd shrink the hands and feet a touch, but the look is still gonna be action figure-esque. That's what they want.

As long as it's not the same chunky look as SFIV, I'm good. The faces and overall musculature are already huge improvements, so I'm happy.

Yeah something to do with Urien for sure, the patched skin is brown a la Urien.
 
I'm in the camp that like the first trailer's look better. There's some subtle black outlining on Chun-Lis dress in the new one that gives it a bit more cell-shaded look for lack of a better word. More like UMvC3 style outlining. Also the ground textures look much better in the first one. Probably still tweaking stuff, and might not even be in yet, who knows what will stick.

Go check out both 1080p/60 trailers from Gamersyde regardless.

I think you quoted my post by mistake, but I agree anyway. The gem on Charlie's forehead definitely seem to indicate a connection to Urien/Gill. (The skin colors are different though.)

People are just speculating based on what information they have. Gill and Urien are genetically engineered weirdoes anyway, they probably do have a bunch of failed versions of themselves and spare bodies just lying around.
 
Trying to figure out why Charlie and Ryu's hands are bigger than their heads but heads, but oh well, still badass stuff there.
 
People worried about roster sizes forget that the original arcade version of SF4 only had 17 playable chacters. The console version added 8.
 
Please god no. Guile is probably the dumbest character in Sf4. "sonic boom" "sonic boom" "sonic boom" "sonic boom" "flash kick" "sonic boom" "sonic boom" "sonic boom"

Besides Guile's connection to Charlie this is one of the biggest reason he would still be in. He is a keep away character and one that is very unique in that because he is a charge character.

Most character's have lot more specials but Guile's simple move set and strong keep away game make him a unique character in SF, even more now that Charlie has been uncloned.
 
Please god no. Guile is probably the dumbest character in Sf4. "sonic boom" "sonic boom" "sonic boom" "sonic boom" "flash kick" "sonic boom" "sonic boom" "sonic boom"

The dumbest guy in sf4 is the one who can't figure out how to get round the same thing over and over.

You know what he's gonna do!

Sounds like the dumbest character in SFIV is actually whoever you're playing as.
 
Doesn't necessarily mean anything.

Cammy was on a billboard in a game that she appeared in. So were E. Honda and Hakan.

Technically, the Honda/Hakan one was originally from a game they where they were both absent: SFxT. That stage was later ported to USF4.

And, I think the Cammy instance is more the exception than the rule. I'd say that 9/10 times, characters who appear in the background of a fighting game don't appear on the current roster.

It is possible, though...

I don't think there's been enough of a precedent to say it means anything. And considering that Fei Long is a movie star, if anyone is gonna have an ad featuring them appear in-game, it would be him.

Yes, and they are not going to release SFV on Arcade first. I guess that's why they were worried about it.

I'm fine with small roster, at long they are going to add one grappler character to the roster.

Charlie! Did you really die!? What have they done to you!!

If you can tell me how to fight a decent guile as thawk I would love you to tell me. Cause I sure as fuck can't figure it out, dude's impossible to get in on if I don't have EX to burn, which is hard to generate.
 
that genocide cutter is so random.

rugal is pissed.

what?? this is like the worst post I've read in 2 days.
 
here's what i don't get about sf5
http://www.gamespot.com/articles/why-you-should-buy-an-xbox-one-in-2015/1100-6424959/
gamespot claims that mS is working on cross platform multiplayer with windows and xbone, but I thought THAT was one of the primary reasons sf5 wasn't coming to xbone - mS refusing to do cross platform play. so what is this?
Sony is bankrolling the project. MS is traditionally against cross play though. I don't think that was a big factor though.
