NICE TRY HYPE TRAIN, I ALMOST FELL FOR THE PANTSU TALK
 
Mika is a lot bigger than she was in Alpha. She sounds older as well, even though that might be a result of the different voice actors.

She's generally in the same size as her alpha counter part. Sprites and body size in alpha were just on the smaller size.
 
There WILL be alternate costumes, you guys shoudn't worry that much about her initial outfit

The only one that shouldn't change is Urien. The dude isn't a guy that will fight with his suit on. Shit is going to get bloody and he needs to show off his body that was sculpted by the gods.

He's the SF equivalent of Brad Pitt in Fight Club. Dude takes his shirt off in the basement because shit will get messy, he's going to fuck you up, and because he needs to show off his body.
 
Well this is their chance to turn the story into something interesting. They must've noticed how many MK copies that sold.
 
Even Capcom doesn't care at this point, if they ever did.
The Ken Bogard leak, along with Capcom explicitly saying they were waiting for a specific time to reveal story details and where the game is in the timeline, implies differently.

They definitely stopped caring for a while partway through the SF4 era, though.

exactly

if they don't care, why should we?

Urien shouldn't even have alternate costumes, he's perfect the way he is

Shitty balance and poor game design ruined characters in MK9 far more than any costume ever could.
I think they both played a part! Like I'll still want to play as Vega if the story 'ruins' him or whatever as long as he's still fun to play as, but I won't want to play as a character if they have a horribly offensive outfit.

Speaking of outfits not a fan of gill and urien outfits
😨

Urien's alt costumes can just be the same clothes but different hair cuts.
 
It was basically a remake of mk1-3 but with slight differences. Pretty smart move, you would imagine they do the same thing with mk4 and do right this time



But no just like how they changed their stubborn button block rule in injustice, they went right back into dumb mk ways
 
Everything we've heard so far suggests that Capcom DOES care about the SF story this time, at least more than they have in the past. I think having aspirations or making critiques with that in mind make sense.

Nah default outfits matter. That's the outfit that's going to be used to primarily sell the character, the outfit that will be in the conscience of the playerbase via use online or in official media, the outfit that will be used in Story Mode, the outfit that will get most of the cosplay and fanart, the outfit that will be on 99.99% of streams, etc. The default outfit 100% matters.
 
anyone got a 1080p / 60fps youtube video of SF V Chunners?

i can't find a HQ gif of the new EX SBK so i'm gonna just do it myself

i wondered about this - does an opponent see your alt or do they just see the default? anyone know?

ohh, that'd be dope. go through the whole SF story, new chapters release as DLC characters drop....

All of the female characters were an embarrassment to the industry. Except I guess you could make a case for Mileena?

oh yikes, a quick google search clears that up for me.

Mika's default might be sketchy, but those are universally bad.
 
There are a few reasons why I think the story mode will be better this time:
- Capcom implied its importance a few times
- Unreal Engine! Comes with a lot of tools to create stuff like that, it's no extra effort to create tools (I hope they played Asura's Wrath)
- No arcade version means there's no reason for the arcade mode structure, aka one (terrible) storyline for every character.

edit:
- Continued story mode would be a good selling point for "seasons" or whatever they are going to sell

Idk why they never went the tekken route and just gave them dumb endings, in TTT2 heihachi becomes kuma
 
All the alts need a suit intro

If they charge a premium for costumes, they should at least do that. It would be pretty cool. Sort of how outfits in League of Legends work for your more premium versions. They retain all their properties, but attack effects, taunts, etc change with the outfit.

They wouldn't be able to pump them out as quick, but I'd take quality costumes over quantity any day.

So you mean instead of his suit alt have a suit intro, he comes in the arena in his man diaper and just wills the suit into existence like a opposite suit intro. That's amazing I hope you work for capcom

Opponent sees the alt. And yeah, the way they fixed that in MKX is one of the reasons I bought it.

I hope Karin gets a redesign as well. Maybe focus on athletic gear, which would fit with her bike shorts, wealth, and physicality.

Frankly, the story mode is not going to be great no matter hard they try. It's Street Fighter. And I typically play characters that have little relevance to the main plot so I'd prefer to see the "What If" of my chosen character winning than having them fighting a pointless fight with another character while Ryu/Ken/Chun-Li do all the important stuff.

I wonder if that's why we haven't seen any SF3 and SF4 characters yet.
 
I don't get the excitement for this reveal to tell the truth. We all have some idea on who it is already, her name starts with K. I am more interested in the announcement of the next beta date. Hopefully with PC cross play implemented.

the fact that Chun's first alt has really different hair is a great step in the right direction. i'd love for super premium alts like what you've mentioned, though.

nice, that's good. i mean... those women are literally wearing strings.
