Wouldn't they use the japanese names for the kings? BLR is Claw, VEG is dictator. There's still a BSN who could be Boxer so this is kind of a moot point, lol.

I'm really torn on believing whether or not this confirms them as playable. I think I'm just going to remain cautiously optimistic.

Probably not at first. But, if they fight you in the story or something, you can guarantee they'll be playable at some point.

Y'know, Juri, Alex, and Urien are all cool and I would totally buy them with either real or fight money, but Boxer being in the game is probably the most hype deflating thing I could've heard. I can't imagine Q being in the game now unless they drastically retool him, and given their previous attitude towards him I doubt they care enough to do that. I just want to play as a weird robot-man in a trenchcoat, man.
Good to see Alex will be getting some company in those backgrounds!
More seriously I expect models to show up in the single player and for them to manifest with movesets later as DLC

I dunno about playable as of now but you can probably expect these as the first batch of DLC

Damn & sad @ no universal parties. I thought SFV was a universal party, but I guess not.

Totally forgot about that. but they are all 3 there so he's at least being worked on it seems. Unless PC modders are being "Baited"
Possible DLC I assume. Still Hyped my Buki might be back.
For what it's worth, none of these characters really seemed like they weren't high probability for making the game eventually. Still likely a relief for fans of them though.
Parries ;-;
Yeah that's what I'm thinking too. So the first wave could be:
Alex
Urien
Boxer
Juri
Ibuki (this early?)
Dhalsim/Guile (dependant on who the last classic character is)

i am legit shook at no akuma.
How do you know the poly count? Is this existing data something someone could see as a model in an unreal model viewer now, or is it just some kind of reference text data?

I was on a Beta comedown but this has brought the HYPE back!

running a search on the file, there's no references to select screen info... so it just confirms these character meshes are in the game, with the same poly count and rigging as the other playable characters
If the story mode is fleshed out i'm pretty sure we'd get even more characters doing cameos.
Can you imagine Karin without Sakura showing up at all ?
I guess it depends how much is told through anime and through 3d cutscenes.
I still feel pretty sad about no Viper and no newcomer if that leak is 100% legit.
Fuck Dhalsim and Guile seriously.

Anyway, six characters as dlc for the first year sounds realistic. Same number as Injustice.
There's very little pattern remaining
Boxer: 4 SF2 / 3 SF2 Ce / 1 SSF2
Dhalsim or Guile; 5 SF2 / 2 SF2 Ce / 1 SSF2
it'd be cool if the remaining classic was Fei Long (or the other two) so it'd be half the roster of each SF2, CE and Super, making that the most "patternlike" selection, but alas, he seems to not be an option.

so when Alex and Urien are obviously announced as early dlc, are people still going to pretend the Siliconera leak wasn't legit? haha
Side note, is there going to be a third beta? Or was 2 it?

I was about to go "maybe this might mean Sim will be a DLC character!"
Thanks for the slap in the face, I needed that.

Yeah that's the weird part. The newcomer is supposed to be part of the first 16 and has a spot on the character select screen. It can't be "FAN" can it?

Sf1 Sf2 ce xx
Sf1 Sf2 ce ssf2
That's why I'm saying to not get hopes up. Boxer is lamest char on list, aka least likely for u or me to pay for.
SF3 didn't have a muai thai character
Sagat is actually Q so he was in.
Ah, but Birdie is SF1 too!
But even Capcom is throwing sf1 under the rug.
Ryu and Ken originated in SF2 now, and Birdie in Alpha. SF1? what's that

Only if they are literally the first two announced DLC characters, anyone can look at a popularity poll and "guess" DLC.
robotzombie

I'm under the assumption that FAN has gotta be Zen, right? I mean we all know there is a fourth newcomer, that's absolute, yet there is no extra newcomer on the file list outside of FAN
But even if they aren't, this file would suggest they are all known elements and being worked on, so obviously someone could have obtained that information and passed it along. I don't think the scheduling of DLC releases would be a factor in that...

Fan is a fan guys
If someone knew of the situation they would have known they are DLC, which is not something Siliconera knew
I'm saying fake... the meshes are not natively fbx files, they're psk files.
... although there are meshes called "fan" that are literally fans-
Not necessarily. Alex is a background cameo and likely a story character, these meshes could be for that and not for actual DLC plans.
If someone knew of the situation they would have known they are DLC, which is not something Siliconera knew
It said they were included and playable so if they are DLC the "leak" wasn't legit.
SF3 didn't have a muai thai character
Wrong move as I always said. MT chars are always a blast.

...but being DLC still makes them included and playable.
Stone Ocean

They are not included or playable as of now and won't be until the near future.
I dunno why you guys need to twist semantics so hard to prove Siliconera was right. Leaks are facts, not interpretation.
What does it matter since you can get them for free after purchasing the base game.
Plus we are talking early DLC not 5 years lifespan DLC.
I really hope it has a few newcomers. :/
I honestly need a KOF rip off à la Viper, or Remy , please, something.
KOF 14 violated me in ways nobody should be.

Parry Party. Ryu was the host, but Geif was the only one that showed up tho and even he only stepped one foot in the door.
Fan is Rashid's prototype =P
They must have considered having a fan playable, but this is supposed to be SFA4, not SF3 4th Strike
Stone Ocean

Because it looks visually bad? lol
So if a game had features advertised as included in the game, but in reality they were DLC that would be an accurate way of expressing that?
Please go argue that in one of the threads with people heated about day 1 DLC, I'd love to see how that goes.
