Ideally there should be a story mode but this is capcom 1 step forwards one quintillion steps sideways 3 steps back.
We'll be lucky honestly if anyone even remembers Sodom if they'd announce him. It'd be cool to have him back though.
you joke but I am still waiting on the classic Capcom last minute "wtf are you doing" moment this game will have.
It seems like they often cannot get out of their own way at the finish line. Gems and on Disc DLC killed SFxT so even the patch that fixed the actual problems couldn't save it. Dragon's Dogma also had something that made a lot of people pass on it as the release came closer.
so I am fully expecting..."um...well we ran out of time so Arcade and Survival is all we have...sowwy".

What I want?
Alex
Urien
Q
Makoto
Cody
Abel
What I'll get?
Guile
Sakura
Sagat
Balrog
Akuma
Juri
Ingrid is like Birdie tier in terms of likelihood, but I'd take her too. I can see Dudley and Ibuki being the first 3S DLC characters a year after launch.

What if Story Mode is year 2 DLC like Killer Instinct?

So who's ready for Ingrid?!
IntelliHeath
As in "Heathcliff"
You are right. I wasn't totally into NeoGAF by then so I don't really post that much until 2010 or so. I was too busy playing with people in local for SF4-SSF4 instead of asking people for online matches (mainly because of my dislike for lags)

Hope we're going to get some brand new characters for DLC. Four initially isn't enough.

Yeah, I'm not going to believe we'll get a decent story mode until I see it. That's never been one of Street Fighter's strong points, mainly because it's never needed to be to sell units.

Because the core roster is dissapointing.
People wanna dream it won't be mediocre in the future but it will be.

Damage would be done. Year 2 DLC is for the initiated.
My DLC characters list is this but add Akuma, Dudley and Alex or Urien or both.
Runner ups:
Eagle
Maki
Makoto

and like I mentioned before Sodom

If they want their game to be a success financially then they need that mode at release. No fighting game can sell big numbers in a post mkix world without story mode. Even though the MK story modes are kind of lame.

Exactly.

Well people remember Mika and Sodoms been in more games plus Final Fight.
I don't know why he would be forgotten . He was also played more than Mika in Alpha 3.

kinda annoying, the show floor closes at 7, so if they drop a character it won't be playable until the next day. I was aiming for saturday to see the panel live and feel the hype IRL but maybe going sunday would be better.
I'm actually not even confident there will be a reveal, though =(
I have yet to see someone buying SF because of the story. Even MK9 was received with a surprise because no one expected that good of a story (which, in turn, probably helped MK X sales and 9 after it spread word of mouth).
If anything, MK story sold the title because of it's presentation. Even before MK, there are other fighters with a good focus on story.
Capcom needs, day one, a good roster (which they have) and a solid online code. I would say that a good tutorial is even more important than story. You need to teach people how to play well in order to keep them.

Say what you want about mika but her design is pretty memorable unlike Sodoms just a dude in a t shirt with jeans and wearing a samurai helm.

Nah, Scenario Campaign had to be the 2nd worst one out of the Tekken series. I found kind of sad and strange over time that I found some enjoyment out of them, but nah at the end of the day Scenario Campaign and Devil Within were poorly designed. With Scenario Campaign it was level design and enemy AI. In Devil Within it was the game design. I'd take any of the Tekken Modes or Bowling over it.

What if the last fight in the game was Nash, but after you beat him the first round he transformed into Urien. If it was actual canon that Charlie Nash is Urien... well god help us all... LOL.

The name sounds familiar.
Can't buy a game for what isn't there.
There's a reason that there's comics and anime and series based on the characters. People are interested in the lore and characters and it's past time that it be presented in game and not other media.
Tizoc
Member
DLC reveal :V Or maybe that they hit a snag during development and changed some plans for the roster.
In other media I agree, I read the comics and watched the old anime. But the games in this regard, well......
I do hope they improve this time you gotta start somewhere.
Can you make her darker so the pic looks good?We need new Final Fight representation.
Bring on Lucia!

I like this idea. Will keep casuals coming back.
Bobby Roberts

Yeah, that's pretty commonplace and not at all remarkable.
I want the story to be like MKX's was. Interactive cutscenes with fights in-between.

It's really not.

C'mon, all jokes aside though, you just said that a weirdo with sais wearing a samurai helm /shirt/jeans combo isn't "memorable."
Even as you recall it from memory.
It's nowhere near the best Street Fighter design, no. But I wouldn't at all say it's not memorable.

I tried to recite every character from every street fighter character the other day and the only one I forgot was Sodom.
Whether it be a story mode or not, what brings "casuals" in is good singleplayer content period.
Arcade, Time Attack, and Survival modes do not cut it alone anymore. There needs to be something that people can play singleplayer and also learn the game, this in turn will make people want to go online. DOA5 did a solid job of this w/ their stupid ass story. But even a world tour mode would be a nice addition.
As is most buy the game, fumble around in training a bit, beat an arcade run , then get bodied online. They then either stick it out and git gud...or they quit or just had enough. You give them even a small amount of extra content and perhaps more will stick it out. This is what made previous smash game pretty cool (and something smash 4 lacks). There was enough to do outside of just playing against friends or the cpu.

I don't particularly think we'll be seeing Sodom anytime soon, but much like with storyline revelevance, I don't think popularity/recognizability (or lack thereof) would stop Capcom from including who they want.
They chose characters like Birdie & Gen for their respective entries early on. I know some fans feel like their voices are finally being heard what with Mika/Karin, but there's bound to be some wildcards.
