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

I'm outright excited to see we're getting more than "mediocre nonsensical intro --> mediocre nonsensical ending"

Seriously.

I couldn't even bother to go through Arcade mode with the exception of a few characters. The intro and endings didn't provide enough to get invested.
 
Yup, with the teaser pic, that comic, and the new ad, these two are looking more and more like the first two out of the gate, which I'm happy about. They bring the most different play styles. I'm thinking the teaser image is going to be the order.
That would be very stupid of them, all the characters are already known, the only kind of surprise card they still have is the reveal order. They wouldn't ruin it with a teaser image like that.

I mean ideally the teaser image wasn't leaked lol. They're not gonna change all their plans because of that. And it's not stupid of them because the release order makes a lot of sense.

Fan fighting with hair would be great. There might finally be a Chinese character in SF that I actually want to use!
 
I just played demo (beta with story mode).

I don't really see anything wrong with cutscenes. I know it's not best quality but it still works for me. Seriously, most of us would moved away from single contents once we are done with it, like we did with other fighting games.

I don't see why people found the needs to complain about cutscenes.
 
Before yesterday, I thought we were going to get the Fan trailer sometime this month and then a lavish story mode trailer at PSX. After seeing what story mode is likely going to look like, I'm not so sure. I would think they'd want to show off something really impressive at PSX. It is possible that there is a day 1 DLC character and we'll get their trailer.

It's a shame it's not in Vegas this year
 
The quality of them though is the issue I'm having now.

LOL. Can I use it as an avatar?

There's nothing stupid about it. Throwing away any sort of logical plan for release just for some sort of gotcha moment because the identities got leaked would be more stupid. Their surprise was the reveal of who the silhouettes were. I doubt their plan was for everyone to know who they were already.
 
I think the characters with form-change V-Triggers make for good boss candidates. Give them permanent V-Trigger at the start of the round, buff their frame data a bit, and you're good. Just imagine Bison with his V-Trigger Head Stomp and positive frame advantage, plus no charge time since it's the AI.
 
Otane for SFV change.org petition incoming

This would explain all the Triangles and bones needed for the character!

I always though Otane was fun. Just less flying Denture attacks, and something more serious for SF, haha.

Yes please

Also I'd love to have a chinese assassin that's a woman in an SF game.

Shu Qi for Street Fighter?! OK! *ahem* It would be cool, there's enough Asian cinema that really works for the underhanded, sly darkness that gets such an interesting twist when delivered from a female. If Sim can be inspired by a character from Flying Guillotine, I'm sure they can find someone Capcom would fanboy out over for inspiration. I always think of Jade Fox from Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, for some reason...
 
The females are definitely more diverse, but there are more of them and there are more archetypes for young females than older males.

We'll see how Fan turns out though.



I'm pretty sure Tekken is bigger actually.

Just count sale number then. See which one sell better?
 
I love stylized art as much as the next guy but a lot of that story mode art just doesn't do much for me. Looks more average to bad than "different". Not the end of the world though.

The casual base would still buy this game regardless, and it won't be the casual base that'll keep this game going; it'd be just like SF4.

Casuals make up the bulk of the sales of any fighting game and we know casuals like good story modes. Let's not be so dismissive.

Alex am cry

T_T

I mean a few weeks ago, we weren't even sure Alex would be in the game. You gotta take your victories when you can get them :P

I'd be perfectly fine with the quality, if it meant every frickin' character introduced would get their own wealth of Story content. Sub-Par art + Voicework for each and everyone would be better than Great Art + Only story content for the initial 16.

LoL, I always try to leave Genkai and Otane out of "Old Ladies in a Japanese Fighter" convos, but I'm glad to see them both pop up regardless. Though both of them having a way to turn into their younger selves always feels like a bit if a cheat. Not one I have a problem with though, if it'd get us such a character into the game.

I don't anime so that reference went over my head :(

so much for SF5 having a story.... i assume thats the 'art style' they are going with, does ono have a son maybe around the age of 5 my guess is thats who did the artwork
 
Ya'll need to chill with the hyperbole damn.

I get the disappointment. I'm personally just glad the characters will actually interact outside win quotes and rival cutscenes.
 
He sounds way to pompous to be a drunken fighter

Sadly, I agree; from that one clip alone, he's too proud to be using a fighting style that requires him to masquerade as a fool. At least
MKX-----
looks to be getting one, if that
silhouette for the next round of DLC is actually Bo'Rai Cho, and not some sort of trick. And this time around, he might even be good!

A drunken fighter, a stand user, or any number of other archtypes, would be cool to see in future characters, though. I know this first year's probably just going to be those 6 we know about (The leak killed my "Akuma's a Secret Character" dream), but I'd love it if we got more new characters in 2017! Although, again, if Akuma's not in the Year 1 DLC, he's guaranteed for Year 2. Same for Sakura, and most likely Sagat. My hopes are that, if Year 2 also has 6 characters, we at least get a couple of newcomers alongside those 3. Maybe 2 more newcomers and Q. As much as I want Dudley or Haggar above anyone else, we're already getting Balrog and 5+ Grapplers in 2016. I'd be more hype at their reveals than I would for anyone else's, but a month after their release, I'd probably acknowledge that they'd be redundant until we get more non-Boxers/Grapplers.
 
Damn I wanna see this character! According to Scrub, he has a lot of rigging. Could he be fighting with scrolls? Pages? Paper? Oh my
 
I doubt the story mode will be drawn up like the tutorial. Ono said something along the lines of wanting a MK esque story mode. Though that could potentially just mean it's longer and has more interaction.

Pretty much. It just means Capcom is going to attempt to do a decent story mode.

Same. I wanna see how this Fan dude looks like.
 
I'm hoping there's more single-player content than just the story mode, training, and challenges. Or at least that the story mode will have some replay value.
 
It will be a Visual Novel that you can choose different conversation options out of.

Will Ken date Ryu or Birdie? Who knows! Ryu wasalways so dreamy but Birdie has a good sense of humour.

Just as long as the sex scenes aren't pixelated, I'm down.
Capcom actually has experience making a grade-A life sim/visual novel in the form of the Nekketsu Seishun Nikki mode in Justice Gakuen, though it was excised from the international "Rival Schools" release from what I understand. Can you make sure that Ryu ends up with Sakura and not with Ken? Will Dhalsim finally stop ignoring my home-wrecking advances? I can't wait to find out!
