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

Twelve is too lame a design in a game already criticized for a cast of freaks.

He is not even colorful or have an interesting pose to him like Necro. He is just a cross between the t1000 and omega red without the charisma of either. You will notice how the t1000 most of the time adopts the face of Robert Patrick as a cop. Twelve just stays plain.

Necro is a great design despite his freakness. Twelve is just lame.

Street Fighter 5

Street Fighter 5 hit the screen next to large round of applause. A trailer was shown off that featured a mix of gameplay from the characters who were previously announced. SF5 is going out of their way to change how DLC works for fighting games. Unlike previous games where you have you have to pay for roster updates and costumes, SF5 will make all DLC available by playing through the game. This will also include character balancing updates. This is great news for those who were frustrated with Capcom constantly releasing new versions of Street Fighter. The SF5 portion of the show was closed out with a trailer for new character, Laura. Laura represents Brazil, and is the first fighter in the series to use Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Gameplay also showed her using electricity akin to Blanka. Laura will be playable at the Capcom booth all weekend. There are three character left to be announced. Two will be all-new characters, while the third will be a classic fighter.
 
I always considered one of the 4 new characters was going to be the boss. Looking forward to seeing who the boss is, if this true of course.
 
2 newcomers? So one of 'em is the boss i guess.

Ono did say the same thing on stage in Mexico and Ayano showed the same slide on Momochi's stream

EDIT- OOPS, that's right, they said 2 more RETURNING CHARACTERS
 
Thanks bud.

Edit: Holy shit capcom, what a cruel tease/troll that is for his fans lol

Edit 2: Yang is in the background in 4's Half Pipe stage, so Alex's npc in NYC makes sense that he's in. Even if it is DLC.
The half pipe stage is from another game, Yang was already in SF4 by then.
 
They need to bring back Alex and Urien to capture that tween demographic that Capcom is losing to mobile games and having world warriors in the game. Obviously.
 
There's also the cheap looking Vanilla costume and that weird puffy dress with the stupid hairdo. Her only good alt is the Super dress with the hat. I expect the halloween costume to be just as bad.
.

I disagree. Her animal costume was actually pretty great, especially with how bad some of the others were. It looks like she's dressed going to a masked costume ball as opposed to some human/animal hybrid. Works pretty well with the theme.

Her Victorian dress was also awesome. She has great alts, except for the summer one which is awful.
 
This is crazy talk.
FF's Axl is named after the band Guns n' Roses
http://streetfighter.wikia.com/wiki/Axl_and_Slash

Axl was designed after the stereotypical western thug as seen by a Japanese developer.
They have nothing in common.
Capcom have at least 2, 2 characters with the name Axl.

He has nothing in common with Alex. At least until Capcom say so, but even as speculation it's ridiculous with the way you put it, no offense @_@

Hey now, we're all just friends and SF fans here, speculating about stuff to kill some time. Don't take it all so seriously.

That said, with Capcom's history to lift characters out of Final Fight enemies or bosses, I actually feel it wouldn't even be that much of a wild hypothesis to think that they might be consciously designing this younger version of Alex (assuming it is him in the stage of course) to establish a link with Axl. Weirder things have happened.

Edit: and by the way, in case you we're taking my comment too literally going by your orphan comment: I wasn't implying that Alex would be part of a literal family of Axl siblings like Andore was in FF, just that he was a named version of the Axl character type who might have started out by sharing their basic design.

But capcom has a big mobile wing

Capcom should make a mobile game filled with 3rd strike characters. Will make more money than angry birds.


Haunts, hire me. I have all the good ideas.
Just don't put them into pachiko. No money in pachiko anymore. Even SNK is leaving the market.

The only guys saying that WW doesn't do anything for kids these days was me and qcfx2, and neither of us are making a fuss about 3S. I don't think either of us even mentioned them. Trying to throw us under the bus like that makes you look like you're salty over nothing.

So he's nothing in design/character, but he's got one of the most interesting and fun playstyles in the series. Even if I'm alone on the gameplay end, I still don't see where the hate comes from.
