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

My guess would be Alex and Urien will be in the Collector's Edition as DLC codes. That would really make me consider getting CE of SFV. :)
 
I saw this tweet that seems to confirm that Alex will be in, but didn't check if the url is real or if it's a fake:

So if true, the 2 remaining chars can be Alex and Urien. So Zen may be a final boss not counted in the original 16.

Edit: the Laura link works, the Alex link doesn't. Same goes if we try with Urien, Zen or Gouki:

I feel that every Street Fighter game should have the original 8 playable characters as standard; Ryu, Ken, E-Honda, Guile, Chun-Li, Dhalsim, Blanka and Zangief. Then there should be at least four new characters. After that then it's anyone's game, bring back some older familiar characters to flesh out the roster. Also every character should also have their own unique stage and music just like the original games.

They need to stop, we'll get Alex & Urien eventually as DLC. It's time to let go.....for now.

That face art looks fake as fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.
I mean it's NICE art but is quite fake and I don't believe it XP

I agree.

We could honestly do without Blanka, Dhalsim, & E. Honda. An argument could be made for Zangief & Guile leaving, as well. Makes more room for fresh blood like Laura, Rashid, & Necalli.
 
The Siliconera leak mentioned Mika and Karin; Alex and Urien would be in as DLC and they'd still be right :P
No they wouldn't. You're either right or wrong, if you give a bunch of guessable info and you got part of it right then that doesn't mean you actually knew the info.

Stop giving Siliconera credit, unless they come out and say "Alex and Urien are going to be DLC" then their "leak" was a dud.

But this is what was written on the site
Sources have confirmed to Siliconera that Alex and Urien from Street Fighter III will be playable characters in Street Fighter V as well. Look out for the two to be announced at some point in the future.
They don't mention if they were among the initial roster or DLC, all they wrote was they'd be playable; they'd be playable whether they're DLC or in the initial roster.

Lol why would you post a "leak" when it's so easy to check for yourself it's not...
 
...doesn't mean it's not true; of course Akuma/Gouki would be playable in SF5.
Exactly. I can make guesses as to what popular characters will be in the game eventually too, doesn't mean I'm in the know. Siliconera's leak had 4 popular characters in it and only 2 were right. Pretty much every fake leak list out there had Karin Mika Urien and Alex in it, hell people were straight up calling out Siliconera's info as being bullshit specially because of that.

Reading into what Siliconera hasn't said is giving them credibility they didn't earn. It's just like the people trying to convince themselves that the game will have more than 16 characters at launch and that one list with 19 characters in it was right all along.
 
It sounds bitter and petty but I don't consider Siliconera "right" if Alex and Urien aren't day 1 characters. Added DLC wouldn't be satisfactory for me to not feel burned by that "leak"
