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

Funny how F.A.N.G. isn't in any of the art... guess Capcom doesn't even like him.

This should be the official cover!

He's right there!
 
I'm loving the classic type of artwork they're coming out for this game. This SF is definitely channeling those 90's/early 2000's fighter vibe.
 
More like not enough Ibuki...
Actually, if the entire work of art was just Ibuki, it would be a huge improvement... Yup.

Yeah, she's so cool that she needs to make a special late entry, by herself, can't share that spotlight.

Tell yourself that and maybe you'll be able to sleep.

Now, this would be one hell of a boxart:

You can see that Birdie had his old(Alpha) look in one of the concept art and also earlier/different looks for Rashid and Laura. Also I wonder who is that in the orange pants below the Ryu/Ken picture.....maybe an older version of Necalli? Seems to have really huge hair that reminds me of Necalli in V-Trigger form abit smaller scale.
 
Loving the Bengus cover

LOL at the "where's Bengus?" guy but he got corrected and everybody makes mistakes :P

I'm also expecting much salt when many of the redesigns of classic character or rejected designs of new character look better than the versions we actually got :P

I wouldn't be surprised if that includes me as well :P
Just hope we don't find out we had any King Cobra > Rufus tier downgrades

This roster release format seems pretty awful to me. Why not just ship Chun, Ken, and Ryu on disc for $30 and sell the rest separately? If you're going to change it up then don't half ass it.

Don't mean to pile on but wow is this a bad opinion :/

I expect to be playing this game nearly every day for a while, so I'm not too worried personally.

To be honest, though, I do expect this to end up being more expensive for the casual user than people are expecting. People bitched about SF4's update path for some reason, even though the last 4-5 years of SF4 amounted to just $30 total for two substantial expansion packs. At $5 per character for SF5, it's going to add up over time.

Then again, casual players probably aren't interested in having every character in the roster, either, so it might end up being a wash.

Yeah that's 100% a concern of mine. For most players, this model will be more expensive than the SFIV model after Vanilla SFIV. Package anything in a palatable enough manner though and people will accept it. Not to say this model we have here is actively bad, I just don't think a lot of people are aware or thinking of the potential costs.

Look at this street fighter alpha ass art, I would buy the shit out of this game more if this was the cover.

Did Capcom give any info yet on how much work it would take to unlock characters via gameplay?

I just hope they sell individual costumes this time around instead of packs... Forcing you to buy costumes for characters you never use...

That was so annoying in the early days of SFIV... "want this cool Sakura costume? Then you have to buy this super lame Rose costume too!"

Ugh!

Amazing image!!! Looks like something Tite Kubo would draw for Bleach manga.
 
The issue this would have as an official game cover is that it has no central focus. It's an ensemble of everyone. Also where would the title go without totally obscuring someone.?

Just put it by Chun-Li's legs so it doesnt offend anyone

i kid, pls dont ban me
 
Go back to the past and destroy the Ono projectors. Don't forget the Nerf Generators, those are the important ones.

Yo, I'm stuck at this place with all these weird ass electric fences. The music's actually fire tho.

Too bad it doesn't stay that way in the future if I don't succeed.

NOW THAT IS A PIECE OF WORK.

Fetty Ryu or Ryu Wap?

"VICTORY WON'T YOU COME MY WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY????!!!!!!!!"
 
It would be cool if Alex had some sort of short range move that turns the opponent around, a la his boomerang chop, as his V-Skill. More ways to set up his back suplex would be nice.

Urien's Aegis as a V-trigger is basically a lock.
 
I'm excited about Street Fighter V coming out in February 2016 for PS4 and I like Street Fighter the main series games. I was confused that the airport stage was not tied to Rashid's artwork. Who does the airport stage belong to since it got revealed? I saw the temple stage tied to Ryu's artwork and does that stage Kanzuki Estate belong to Ryu and Karin? Are they going to release DLC for Characters, Costumes, Stages, Colors for Street Fighter V? How many stages do they have left to show and reveal for Street Fighter V?
 
I'd love for Urien's V-Trigger to be an upgrade to Gill-tier move properties, but Aegis Reflector is far more likely option. Hopefully the pillar animation stays in for V-Skill (as an electric effect for his next move?).

I'd guess Ibuki's V-Skill would be either her dash or cross-up jump. Raccoon companion as V-Trigger?

Boxer's V-Skill might be ducking or TAP. V-Trigger would probably add extra hits to his dash punches or allow faster charge (I expect it to be rushdown related).

Juri's V-Skill could very well be her counter-teleports. V-Trigger would most likely be FSE.

Not sure about Alex. Could be some sort of taunt power-up. Or could be his stomp or chop.

Guile's V-Trigger will be his sunglasses and V-Skill his shoulder roll taunt. They won't do anything, just look cool.

Is this a deep troll?

I hope they don't shoehorn characters already existing moves into V-skills.
 
like cammy's maybe? pop v-trigger to go into aegis mode, with one reflector costing half the meter.
Doesn't Cammy's V-Trigger slowly drain over time? It'd be better if Urien's V-Trigger just stayed full & only goes down by half when Aegis Reflector is used.
