She will be in MVC4, make no mistake. Now whether MVC4 will be made is a story for another time.
Street Fighter V Roster Discussion: P-P-P-P-PATTERN BREAKER
- Thread starter IntelliHeath
- Start date
- Status
"Though many of Ono's hints usually come in the form of a partial in-game screenshot, he has been known to use actual photographs as hints. What's even more interesting, is that Urien's Street Fighter 3 Third Strike stage is actually meant to resemble the Olmec ruins in La Venta, Tabasco, which as you may have guessed is in Mexico."
Man, this one was a little disappointing. I am happy for the Zangief fans, but I was really hoping for a more interesting initial roster. It is too bad they didn't go with Haggar instead. I also think that Gief looks a little unfinished (and his critical art is very lame looking). Well, maybe the new characters will be cool...?
*edit*
I was trying to not be salty, but I was obviously unsuccessful. The salt is real.

pc and ps4 simultaneous release confirmed a while ago
For 2 seconds. That fuck doesn't compare to Urien... DA GAWD.
When is it not in this fanbase

I've read the thread I see Zangief has not liked in general
Putting her in marvel would only hurt me more
It's not that he's disliked, it's just that people were looking forward to SF3 characters but oh wait here's another SF2 character.

All this talk about the roster made me think so I've been looking at the Character Select screen and came up with this.
"Launch": 16 Characters
Ken Bogard rumor was 16 and Capcom confirmed 16 characters at Evo so here how a 16 character screen will look slot wise. However if you fill both rows to the end, it will look like this:
Filled rows: 24 Characters
With 2 characters left after next week's reveal, it seems they have some time for more unless they have a ton of other modes left to reveal. Release date is Spring 2016(Late Feb/March maybe like Capcom's other fighters?) and that is a ways to go so.....? This is all speculation of course but take it as you will.
Also you could fill up above the top row too which equals to 36 characters if they don't change the Character Select UI and keep it the same. As seen below:
SFV End?: 36 Characters
That's potentially the number of how the roster may look in the future years after launch if they keep doing DLC. Pretty good number and plenty of spaces to fill with old and new characters.

If the character selection screen gets cramped they'll just do another one
Sf2 characters will sell the game to a larger crowd. Sf3 characters will sell dlc to the enthusiasts who would buy the game anyway
I know, but is really that much of a crime to have at least one SF3 character in the main roster?

Yeah of course, the pics are just how it looks with the current UI. Though they said they aren't gonna do big updates like Super, Ultra so it may just be the same throughout SFV's lifetime.

Its almost as if doing it this way would be more profitable for the company. But no "crapcom" is stupid and dont know what they are doing. They should listen to their 3S fanbase because they gave them soo much revenue. /s
Karin's there so it's TGS.
Ono is not adverse to including character some people do not like. El Fuerte exists. Ono is in Mexico.
Honestly, I feel like the big 3 are all that matters to casual players, and probably Guile. The rest are pretty irrelevant and just a bonus, including most of the SF2 cast.
It seems weird to not include at least one 3s character in the launch roster. Sure sf2 characters are more recognizable to the casuals but there are so many of them in the roster and i am sure capcom would like to appeal to hardcore 3s players as well. I know some of them who didn't touch or gave up on sfiv pretty quickly because of mechanics or chars.

It's from Max's Ken video he took at Twitchcon so probably the same build as TGS I think?

But there won't be a Super version of SFV.

I don't hate Gief, I'm just really salty about the last two not being Alex and Urien. Also his CA looks really lackluster unless they didn't show all of it. I always loved how over the top some of Gief's old supers were.
Shadoken
Member
You cant be serious... Bison,Gief,Sagat,Cammy,Vega,Akuma..?
Thats like 3/5th of the 3S cast right there. And we got Yun/Mak/Dudley in the last game so idk why people are salty ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Yeah, I'm serious. If you take out Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li and Guile but leave the rest in there, I don't think the casual playerbase is going to eat it up.
Those 4 sell the series itself, the rest are a bonus.
Shadoken
Member
They dont need to release a Super version to adjust the positions of the select screen.
Its literally like a 1 day task or something.
Id put Akuma way above Guile. Ryu needs to be there because he is the face of SF.
So lets say you had these roster choices for SFV. Which one would sell?
1) Ryu,Cammy,Bison,Gief,Sim,Akuma,New comers.
2) Ryu,Nash,Cody,Guy,Sakura,Karin,New comers.
3) Ryu,Alex,Urien,Dudley,Ibuki,Mak,New comers.
Yea its not even close , which cast people would buy. Maybe if you combined 2 and 3 , it would outsell 1. But even then I doubt it , considering 2 would be doing the heavy lifting.
IntelliHeath
As in "Heathcliff"
It wouldn't stop them from updating the character selection. They mentioned that they could update UI, etc (not sure about character selection)
I wonder if they are going to label a massive free update as Super Street Fighter V?
Yes SF3 is the devil and is poison.
Mr. Nice_Guy
Member
Haha nice.
For the record I wouldn't be against this.
The best OT title of all time would disagree with you haha
I don't think they will label it as such because of all the whining they got with SSF4 AE and USF4. I think we will see SF V ver 201X.
I really want to see this down the line. Mostly, because I want to see the complainers saying why capcom doesn't do "super,ultra" editions anymore with all the content.
Hey man Killer Instinct did it so why can't Street Fighter.

Oh Zangief's been revealed! I was thinking he was going to sit this one out. Where's the trailer?
You mean balance updates? Yeah, they should. Commentators shouldn't be like, "Welcome everyone to the top 8 of SFV Version 2.17"
Fcuk the haters. Capcom roster selection is perfection, a good balance of classic iconic characters. 4 characters that have not appeared in a SF in a while as well as 4 new characters. The fact that the returning characters seem fresh with move changed and V Skill and Trigger is an added bonus. Just take a look at the variety of playstyles.
Ryu
The basic shotokan character with powerful hits and a defensive V Skill
Ken
The edgy rushdown shotokan character, with an offensive V Skill
Chunli and Cammy
2 of the most iconic female SF characters. Probably the worse and most boring additions but I can live with them being in the roster.
Birdie
Keep away grappler. With plenty of trap set ups. Great for character if your good with spacing and position the opponent with a decent grab set up.
R. Mika
Rush down mixup fast paced grappler. That keeps coming at you with good mixups, although the grabs are not as quick as Gief, you can mix up and pressure the opponent into grabs,
Zangief
The classic power grappler that will destroy when he gets close. Unfortunately the whole mind game with Gief is to get close to the opponent which can be difficult. Gief has lost his Green Hand so is not as fast but this makes his archetype even more obvious. The addition of Iron Muscle V Skill to nullifty attacksas well as the command move that nullifies projectiles will help him. Finally the V Trigger lariate is perfect to get your opponent close to you.
Bison
They changed him up enough to make him unique. The slow walk speed to V Trigger super fast powered up Bison with cool teleports is so unique.
Vega
Im not a fan of Vega, but he is one of the most unique characters from SF2. The jumping off walls and flying about brings diversity to the roster. The different stances also gives him his own unique spin. I was lucky to try him out at EGX and him not being a charge character made me enjoy him quite a bit. And I like his new command throw he has without the claw.
Nash
He is just too cool. The teleport setups you can do with his V Trigger is what makes him different to the other characters.
Necalli and Rashid
Both of these new challengers are well designed and bring something new to the roster. Way better than all the SFIV newbies save for Juri.
The only character that I am not a fan of is Karin, which is surprising I guess is because GAF loves her.
Ryu
The basic shotokan character with powerful hits and a defensive V Skill
Ken

uh, no. they'll just say SFV and remark on a patch if it happens to be relevant to bring up. just like any other game that sees balance updates or dashboard/UI overhauls. jeez
I doubt it because there won't be a need to differentiate as everyone will have the same game, albeit with less characters unless they buy them. If we get some big USF4 style changes I think the old version will cease to exist.
I haven't played her in SFA3, but a rekka character with a big focus on mix ups ? Yes, that's good.
If anything Capcom will do it like LoL, and have Seasons in the game
Shadoken

Shes the bone Capcom threw for hardcore fans. Her race/nationality is already represented well enough. She does bring the Rekka gameplay. Plus they might as well close up the Alpha list of remaining characters.
Interesting to note all New comers are from Key locations of ancient civilizations Central,South America,Middle East,India.

Gief is also least changed new character design wise, on par with Cammy and Chun-li. If they changed his a design a bit I wouldn't have minded at all.
Well yeah, we've still got a pretty solid lineup, but it ain't hype enough bro
Shadoken
Member
I really doubt they could change much visually without changing his iconic look. Like they did with Bison,Ken and Vega.
At least his gameplay has some drastic changes unlike Cammy.

That's pretty cool actually. Hell it doesn't even look that cramped to me. Better than what the SF4 roster turned into.

Yup I've thought this too, althought 20 more DLC characters sounds like overkill!
