Street Fighter V Roster Discussion: P-P-P-P-PATTERN BREAKER

Because we see him too often. And that title belongs to Haggar.

Haggar is not the original grappler. In Final Fight he did not really have a command grab. He wasn't even in a fighting game!

And Zangief copied the lariat, but Haggar copied his spinning pile driver, so Haggar is the grappling copycat.

Hugo was announced?

Hugo is ok, but I dislike his weird normals. Prefer the solid ones that Zangief has.

Well, that's assuming Zangief keeps his normals. In the trailer he seems very oriented to slow normals with super armor or something. We'll see.

Hakan isn't in SFV

Aw shit son, a true contender rises.

Hakan rules.

You had one job, Ono. I guess this means Sim is in as well. No Jazzy NYC '16 for us, then.
 
I like zangief, i am excited he is in. He looks even bigger, bulkier than in sfiv, i am not sure i like tht but he looks cool anyway. His moveset looks redesigned, i hope verperarcade does a breakdown soon enough.
 
Day one dlc for Alex?

I was always pushing more for Alex/Urien as DLC. Or actually, that Urien would be the unplayable boss that becomes playable in a month or so.

But it really does seem that by "classic," what Dahlgren meant was Street Fighter II. So there's one more character from SFII left to go, probably.

Dhalsim
Sagat
Boxer
T. Hawk
Fei Long
Guile
Dee--

Okay, they're not gonna put DeeJay in, so nevermind.

Which of those six do we think has the best shot? Do we really think it's Dhalsim?

I'm still pulling for Boxer, partially because we don't seem to have one of those (although I'm hoping Laura is MMA, which should incorporate some of those elements) and partially because the entire currency of the game is based on his catchphrase.
 
A lot of use though Gief/Sim and this is a good way to start

I think it has to be Sim at this point unless they throw a wild card our way. I feel (hope) we are going to hear about DLC soon as there's potential that the rest of the roster will be revealed before the month is over.
 
I get that Gief being in disproves the theory that Alex is in the main roster but I'm convinced he's in the first wave of DLC

Would they really announce Dhalsim at NYCC? God, I can just imagine the salt.
 
As much as I'd love Alex, Capcom would be idiotic to kill all the goodwill they've built with day one dlc.

I hope so man, also we need a 3s rep in the starting roster I mean my goodness. I thought Juri was a sure thing as the lonely sf4 rep.

Laura is getting announced next week.
 
IMHO Alex will be day one DLC.

Urien is the final boss.

Who may or may not count towards the 16 characters, and may or may not be DLC.
 
Beelzebufo smiling on like a proud dad knowing his son gief made it /manly tear.

Also lol @ Alex day 1 dlc, you'll get Urien if he's the true boss of this game or Akuma, not some character that's unknown to 95% of the people who played sf2 and 4.
 
Ken Bogard was so accurate up until now, too. Damn, I was really looking forward to Urien & Alex, too. On the bright side, this throws everything out the window so there's still hope for Q.
 
Wow, he looks even shittier than I could have imagined.

Get hype for another character that hasn't been changed at all.

wut

Ken never said anything about Alex and Urien bruh
 
I love Zangief and will play as him so this makes me happy

I love Alex and would have much more wanted to play as him so this makes me sad

Zangief looks great on top of already liking him, so this makes me happy

Zangief likely means Dhalsim, my least favorite character in the history of Street Fighter, so this makes me sad

...


Also, to the people saying "RIP Siliconera", that is pretty silly considering they never mentioned anything about the starting roster and Siliconera is very consistent with recent leaks and rumors. Nothing about this suggests they were wrong, and there is still a very high chance they are in the game as early DLC

Ken Bogard's information has nothing to do with a Zangief announcement
 
Also anyone saying Gief looks the same is crazy

He looks totally different gameplay wise than in SF4 and honestly I think he looks like a lot of fun but also I am a whore for grapplers

If Alex & Urien were leaked to be DLC, Siliconera would have said so. They got half of their info wrong, plain & simple.

We need a boxer honestly.

Yeah, at the Brazil show.

But two days later there's going to be a SFV panel at NYCC with Ono and Peter and the panel description teases surprises. Every con panel they've done so far has had a character reveal.

3 characters in one month? I doubt it. I expect the beta release date and maybe some online modes.
 
This is a byproduct of the ala cart roster. They are gonna cram all the characters that won't sell in the base game. It's anti hype but good business.
 
The tears from all the people so certain Alex and Urien were in the launch roster taste so salty sweet right now. LOL

I was expecting Zangief. I'm just disappointed that Capcom couldn't have been bothered to change a single thing about him.

EDIT: I mean they didn't change his visual design at all. Yes, I know he has a few new moves.
