SFV Cammy and Birdie Revealed

Really? Deejay?

Yeah i like his moves a lot and his alternate costumes in IV. i play decent with him. If he wasn't charged based like how Nash isn't anymore in SFV I would wreck with him and that machine gun upper. I would take a older dreaded out rasta Deejay over this clown looking Birdie any day of the year.
 
I was hoping Cammy wouldn't come back, oh well.

While Birdie is well animated, can't say I like his design. I really liked his weird figure in Alpha artwork (huge arms and lanky legs):

He looks very generic now.

Eh... he looks fine to me. He's still nowhere near as light as he was in the original Street Fighter.

Funnily enough, SFV Birdie is the closest to the huge arms and lanky legs of that artwork.
 
I wish characters had multiple winning animations.
Like maybe if you won with a critical art or perfect, it would play a different animaiton.
 
So far the characters they've shown have been a bit more "serious" looking (Ryu, chun, Nash, Bison), its nice to see this kind of design back with Birdie though. Makes me hype to see a Necro or Oro maybe.
 

DAT ANIMATION Holy fuck. This game..goddamn.

I stand by what I said few pages ago about this being one of the gods of animation in a fighting game genre.

Also, people will warm up to Birdie I feel. I truly think this new design is fucking amazing. He is gonna be so fucking hype when people rip it up with him in tournament.

Lastly, IMO Birdie is the most interesting design shown off in SFV so far. Nothing but love for him. <3
 
Birdies animations are amazing.

In-fact this is the best Capcom animated fighter since SF3 and it even 1up's it in a lot of areas too.

Simply amazing attention to detail.

SFV, SF3, and Mark of the Wolves are the 3 gods of FG animation.

It makes Tekken, MK, Xrd, USF4, animations look like a fucking joke.

THANK YOU SONY & CAPCOM I CRY TEARS OF JOY.

More like SF3, Garou and Skullgirls.
 
So how long for SFV presentation?
 
Looks like Birdie's not in Shadaloo anymore. In one of his other win quotes shown in the the Giant Bomb video he seems to take interest in Nash having fought against Shadaloo.

was he ever Shadaloo? he just wanted to join it to get famous IIRC, and in Alpha 3 he actually was out to destroy them because he got played by Bison
 
When they say pre-orders get you in to the beta, what does that mean exactly? Does that only apply to digital version pre-orders? Do you get a code or something with a Gamestop pre-order?
 
As someone who mostly played Boxer, I'm digging Birdie's playstyle. TAP and dashes right out of Boxer's playbook, and his V-Trigger for the moment seems easier to build than Bison for the same 3 level timer power up state...
 
Wasn't too thrilled to see Birdie back, but after seeing his animations and that jump rope critical art, he's looking impressive compared to the other characters so far.
Cammy is a waste of a slot. They could've put more diversity in this cast by adding in Eagle instead of Cammy and her tired leotard.
 
Where did you play it? Did you murder the people yelling in the background? I wouldn't blame you.

Capcom are currently touring the UK with what seems to be the same build as E3. This was the first stop of the tour, at The (appropriately named) Mash House in Edinburgh, hosted by Rushdown Edinburgh and Versus Scotland.

Pretty good fun all in; four SFV setups; two with sticks, the other two with pads.

EDIT: Oh; and the loud men are just how Scotland sounds 24 hours a day. You get used to it (there were discounted cakes on sale and everyone got a little excitable).
