Well Alex Fans when you get SFV just go to training.... choose the NYC stage and pretend that you are fighting Alex

After those comments, Alex is practically guaranteed to be playable in SF5 at some point.

Otherwise, Ono wouldn't have brought it up at all.

 

[Clawww]

All I did was play Ken at NYCC man.. Dude is fun.

Had a fun match with a Ken player, was it you? I played Nash and necalli

 

[Mista Koo]

Controversial opinion time: last vetran is Fei Long.

[WW][WW][CE][S ]

That updated roster pic suggests that to me.

 

[SolarPowered]

You got to remember they got the Paris game show and PSX event before launching SFV.

Two shows already important enough for character reveals. There is no reason they couldn't have new information to present for NYCC.

No wonder Ono was so heartbroken over the Laura leak. Her reveal was supposed to generate enough hype to cover 2 separate events.

It probably would have gone over about as well is it did now. Brazil already got Laura. NY and gamers in general would have still expected a new character for NYCC. It's not exactly a small event.

I was there thu only if so maybe!

We had to be punished for famitsu and SCEA leaks lol can't believe Ono made such a long trip for nothing.

Do you know what Ono said about Alex? I missed it.

 

[Scrub Mcgrubb]

so we all gonna report that gamefaqs guy now? Not even story mode details...

 

[Master Thespian]

That still would have been foolish in the internet age, man. The kind of people going to a NYCC panel on Street Fighter would've already seen the trailer by the time the panel got started.

 

[PadWarrior]

Ken is looking good

 

[Flowmoney]

I expect nothing and I'm still let down.

Or DJ or T. Hawk

Not only that but Laura was playable at the booths before the panel started too. The reveal was completely pointless.

Well Fei Longs already a background element but sadly unlike Alex they just pulled his 4 art and put it on a poster.

 

[ThirtyPlus]

Please be excited.

 

[TheRealTalker]

I am fine

I am still running off of Karin reveal joy so I can go for another Month

 

[The Lone Dragon]

People tend to overstate how popular Alex is, he was the 5th highest SF3 original character in Capcom's SF poll behind Q, Ibuki, Dudley and Makoto. Those 4 plus Urien (potential boss/secret boss character) have a better chance of hitting SFV before Alex...

The Executive Producer of Street Fighter just told us that everyone has been asking him about Alex, to the point where he had to actually bring it up at the panel.

He also did very well on the recent Play magazine poll, which the Official SF account publicized and endorsed: http://attackofthefanboy.com/news/ken-cammy-top-street-fighter-vs-wanted-character-list/
More than 70,000 people participated in it, so it wasn't tiny.

Nobody is overstating anything.

People want to see Alex, and it looks like he's going to show up eventually in SF5.

God, I hope not. I'm already forced to accept another SF2 characters. Fei or Akuma are the only reveals that could disappoint me now.

 

[Bobby Roberts]

The Executive Producer of Street Fighter just told us that everyone has been asking him about Alex, to the point where he had to actually bring it up at the panel.

It's because he's visible in a stage they've been looking at during the con.

If he wasn't there, there probably wouldn't be as many questions about him.

Kinda surprised at no character reveal at all.

Still thinking it's gonna be Guile as the returning character.

Violent Ken is 9 lol

It's a pity they only got to play on a new stage using 2 characters that were revealed in the last week.

Looking at the date of that article I'm sure that the first year of SFV DLC characters would've been planned well before that poll came in....

And as the poster above me said, Violent Ken is 9 lol. (can't wait to play him)

damn i missed everything.

If it's a Super character, he's the only real option. (Necalli is basically a fixed T.Hawk, Dee Jay is....Dee Jay.)

Naw you good you didn't miss anything. You're here just in time for the salt tho.

 

[CoyoteSpitfire]

You missed nothing.

 

[The Lone Dragon]

Do you know what Ono said about Alex? I missed it.

He said he was well aware that lots of people have been requesting Alex, and that he would relay that info to the SF team.

Also, he confirmed that the character in the NY stage is Alex.

 

[ElFly]

Even if Laura had not been leaked, we'd have people disappointed they didn't reveal Alex at NYCC.

 

[ShogunDarius]

i'm surprised at how little was there, I guess PGW is next reveal then

 

[Platy]

Hey, look !

An a India game convention in november

http://in.ign.com/india/79812/news/igx-indias-first-gaming-expo-to-take-place-in-mumb

I guess Dhalsim is a lock =P

 

[Gunslinger]

I think after today this thread will go down in traffic significantly. Today's panel killed all the hype and kind of confirmed sim. So now everyone know the final roster.

Zen is from India too and Capcom aren't even confirmed to be there

 

[bangbang i'm a timpani]

Ken is looking really interesting. His v-skill is still weird but Momichi is beginning to make it and the Dive Kick work: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4DB3Pgfn2Z8&ab_channel=HotYouTubeVideoChannnel

Nah, Alex is gonna be there

Wow thats so weird that a fan favorite character being reduced to a stage element would suddenly get a lot of talk.

 

[Troubled Bat]

At least we know Alex will surely be DLC.

Ken got on there twice lmao trash

 

[Scotia]

I see, I guess that's good news. Him trying to pass off that's he's doing a good deed for the fans is bullshit when the fact Alex is in the NYCC stage proves that Alex is on the minds of the SF team. DLC it is then.

 

[yurinka]

lol, you act like Dhalsim isn't just as classic as the other three.

Sagat, Guile, Alex, Urien and a lot more are more popular than Dhalsim even if we had to suffer him in a ton of games according to the characters poll:
http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2013/mar/29/results-capcoms-street-fighter-favorite-characters-popularity-poll/

Let's hope they skip Dhalsim until they released like 16 DLC characters in addition to the initial 16 ones.

 

[Westlo]

Ken got on there twice lmao trash

The Ken Army split their vote and not only did we win we also got #9.

 

[Producer]

You are starting to sound like my dude neoxon lol.

 

[sixteen-bit]

anyone got a screenshot of the new 16 roster pic

 

[Gunslinger]

You are starting to sound like my dude neoxon lol.

Bro I am sad.... The Guile dream is now 100% dead....

 

[『Inaba Resident』]

Bro I am sad.... The Guile dream is now 100% dead....

DLC. You know Capcom is gonna go off. There's gonna be a ton of it.

 

[ThirtyPlus]

That Sim reveal gonna be so sad.

 

[Infinite]

Ken is looking really interesting. His v-skill is still weird but Momichi is beginning to make it and the Dive Kick work: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4DB3Pgfn2Z8&ab_channel=HotYouTubeVideoChannnel

His Vtrigger is weird man. The fact that the kick causes knock down on hit is really lame.

 

[Scotia]

Bro I am sad.... The Guile dream is now 100% dead....

Calm the fuck down man. Wait until the last returning character is announced before you start moping around.

 

[Gunslinger]

That Sim reveal gonna be so sad.

Yeah least hype reveal. Even less than gief.

 

[The Lone Dragon]

Wow thats so weird that a fan favorite character being reduced to a stage element would suddenly get a lot of talk.

People were already talking about him way before the NYC stage.
The Gief announcement was really started getting people riled up about Alex in recent weeks.

And, of course, he was already requested before that (see: my previous post)
