Street Fighter V Roster Discussion |Thread 2| Deal with it & place your hope for DLC

Capcom has always favored hometown. Chun, Cammy, Felicia, June Lin Milliam, Vanessa Schneider, pretty much every RE female post 5. I could go on.

Outside of that wierd Jill Gilitch and SF5 they focused on pancake flat asses. It took based Team Ninja to show niggas how it's done. Lady Kstoute aww yisss
 
Man this roster has been sooo lackluster imo of course. No zoners, 2.5 charage characters and that's being generous. The super focus on rush down, 4 grapplers in a 16 man roster. Scrubs complaining that they can't get around brain dead zoning tactics are the ones i guess capcom listen to. Whatever atleast the engine from what I played it in beta 1 was pretty good. This is my opinion ofcourse so don't get butthurt.

Well you can thank "popularity" lists for that . There's barely any Zoners or Charge characters in the Top/Mid rankings.

Yeah, I know "barely" is the operative word here, but isn't Guile pretty high on those lists ? He would make more sense popularity-wise as the last SFII veteran than Sim, and I say that as a Sim mainer. Maybe they'll save him for DLC because of that very reason, though.

Yeah I think Guile would make a lot of sense considering the story/roster. Also with NYCC reveal coming up, it would be a great venue to announce he's back.

The speculation for who will make the roster AFTER we finally know who the first sixteen are will be very interesting. One thing we know for sure... there is not enough room for the many characters that would seemingly make sense in the initial roster.

Yeah this is the first series with this sort of a background (Not to take anything from KI) using this sort of model so it will be interesting to see how the updates work out.

There are a lot of characters that would make sense in slot 16 and even more that will make sense in slots 17-45 or so. I'm looking forward to riding this road through the current generation and maybe even a bit beyond.
 
Guile as the last returning character would be great.

And change him up a little bit.

Make him an opium smoking veteran with long hair...

But keep him zoning/charging...
 

Based on what?



I posted a countdown timer, that is 1 hour ahead or behind.

As someone who wants Alex to be among the initial roster, we'll get his DLC trailer during NYCC :V

Sorry, I didn't want to be that guy, but I must have missed those.

The next reveal could literally be just about anyone. If Siliconera has any credibility maybe Alex will be part of the roster and Urien will start as a boss but I kind of doubt that. I'm expecting an SF2 character like Guile or Dhalsim at this point but it's pretty much anyone's guess.
 
I heard Lauren trailer got leaked. Can anyone link it? I'm trying not to read anything about it So I don't want to read through the thread if possible. Sorry if it was already linked.
 
So with two characters left they the choice to debut Zen in NY or the returning character. If it's not Zen then would Dhalsim get the public hyped? Dhalsim seems like a character they would announce like they did Vega, so I really don't think he's in the initial 16.

Well yeah much like Gief and Claw, 'Sim would just get his trailer released without any hype for it or during an event.
'Sim is one of the most likeliest to be in the initial roster.

Zen will be revealed during October I think.

No way would they reveal Zen at NYCC. Aside from it being strange them revealing the last two new characters in a row, it would be pretty disappointing if the last character shown is one from SF4.

No just in the 3ds version of revalations she had an ass. On the PS3 version it was gone. So it was a mistake. Thus a glitch.

Maybe they found out that people were more receptive to pancakes on PS3?

There's no guarantee of a character reveal at NYCC

Capcom relied less on focus groups back then. They just 'fixed' her ass. It took

to set them straight. Set everybody straight.

Alex is cool.
Also hope Haggar,Hugo and maybe Ingrid.
SFV vanilla will belong to the grapplers. So many grapplers so far and it's perfect. Let's hope they ain't trash tier.
