Or reflect projectiles. It also can't take as much damage, it can only be placed in one spot, it has wind physics, & it's bigger. Also, Charlie & Bison have V-Triggers that are similar in concept, but not much in execution.

My man.
A rival schools character would be dope as fuck. Personally I want to see Akira in another game. Inb4 "but nobody played rival schools"
They can stand right behind "no one asked for Mika".

Ignore it and just have him as what if? DLC down the line?
Or whatever they did with Gen.
Whos to say he'll even his aegis reflector back. They could give him one of his other supers or a new one entirely. Because if you think about it, if he gets aegis reflector, its going to be nerfed to shit and people would complain.

Because that is what he was most known and used for.

It's not like Seth is an unique being, just put another one in and say he's Seth Mk2 or some shit
Why even put Urien in without Aegis? It's his signature move
exactly.

As in "Heathcliff"
It's like Ryu without Hadoken, Chun Li without lighting kick, Guile without Sonic Boom!

I thought non-cosmetic dlc will be free?

You can get them for free if you want but paying is still an option if you don't feel like taking your time to unlock them
You can buy characters with in-game currency if you want, yes.
Put them in their own section!
lol, I wish. Can't even do hand combos consistently.
He just made an appearance in SF IV, which makes him less appealing to vote for than say Oro. He's also a member of the Alpha cast, which aren't as heavily requested as the SF III cast.
We don't know how much fight money will be required to unlock a character. I might be jaded, but I'm fairly sure it'll take a lot of wins* to be able to afford one DLC character, let alone all of them.
*Based on the beta, you get next to no money for losing in ranked. This could change though.

Oh damn, forgot about fight money lol.
So cosmetic dlc will only be bought w real money?..
Or do we not know for sure

Right, but i dunno i can kinda see capcom try to mix things up with him since hes been gone for a while. Probably not though, lol.
But the Aegis Reflector isn't as similar to Rashid's V-Trigger in how they act as you make it out to be. Similar at face value, sure, but there are a good number of differences between the two. If anything, it's like the differences between Charlie & M. Bison's V-Triggers (an example that I used earlier).

Yeah but there are other moves that they can take to make them more interesting instead of just removing his signature attack, rest of his kit is pretty bland overall for a guy that creates pillars of flame by punching the ground
They might offer some free stuff, but haven't given much more info.
sf3We don't know for sure but they specifically said that they want to make what relates to actual play to be accessible without paying more, thus free balance updates and characters being available for purchase with in-game currency.
Cosmetic dlc doesn't fit that criteria and is the area that one would think Capcom expects to make money.

Despite that Sakura cameo, RS and SF are not the same universe.
I wouldn't mind a crossover tho. RS is hilarious.
They mentioned during a Q&A at EVO that youd be able to buy costumes with Fight Money. Hopefully that wasn't something the Capcom rep was just wrong about.
Some costumes, not all. They were very clear about that.

I expect stuff like extra colors being bought with fight money too. This type of system needs some form of sink so saving fight money for new characters isn't a no brainer
I would not be surprised if it was just colour palettes and taunts. <_<
Unless there's a color change option like in sfxt, the character will still be a no brainer

Yep, i'd expect the pre-order costumes to eventually be part of those costumes that you can buy with Fight Money. But you can expect that most of the costumes made available will only be purchasable with real money.
they show up in Sakura's UDON comic if that means anything
yeah, what we know:
-all balance updates are free
-all characters can be bought with Fight Money OR real money
-some cosmetic dlc can be bought with Fight Money OR real money, some can ONLY be bought with real money
i actually don't mind this to a degree. could make a costume i want more rare, so i see less of them online
Not until he makes DMC5.
You're going to pick Sean but for his shitty 3rd strike version? Come on. 2nd Impact Shoryu > 3rd Strike.

Yeah, they're taking a model that's similar to MOBA's and those games tend to make their money off of selling cosmetic DLC. They're making it so that you can earn all of the gameplay related DLC for free, so charging for cosmetic stuff is understandable. And I feel that people will probably be more willing to pay for the cosmetic stuff since they can get the fighters for free.

i like how authoritative his 2i DP was where he slams u down afterward

Exactly. At least they got the dumb Gem stuff out of their system before this game, because it would have been that. But they will definitely include a way to try and get people to spend fight money outside of characters so that they start paying for characters even if they don't have to. Like League of Legends with runes and stuff.
Palette swaps are probably going to be the prime bait
Errr I don' understand how someone can see underwear here
It's the same exercise pants with a patch of a different color and that's it.
First time hearing that it was exercising pants from anyone , but I see it closely now and it looks to be that or some other type of shorts.

It seems like the blue underwear is actually connected to her skirt, while her work-out shorts are underneath.
Capcom did say that some alternate costumes can be earned with Fight Money.
I like you.

They're bike shorts/compression shorts.
If they ever introduce a Rival Schools character (why not, the cast is filled with people from Final Fight after all) I'm afraid it's going to be Batsu, who is a 100% shoto. Or Hinata, who is Sakura :S
It would be so cool if they put in Akira, Shoma or Daigo. Daigo was the fucking best, mang.
Oh yes, I want to hear "At ease, loser" again after a Hyper bomb. Please Capcom.

i don't fucks with lol /dota - what are runes?
i'm hoping it's as successful as MOBAs using that business model - SF deserves it
sorry, b - not for another like 12 hours
Isnt it like in 12 hours?

I think 12 hours from now
I don't know what they were thinking changing it in 3rd strike. It was such a cool move previously.
