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

If I recall correctly, Oro is getting his own premium figurine. As such, I wouldn't be surprised if we got Oro in Wave 2 to continue the trend of SFIII characters who weren't in IV being DLC for V (much like Alex & Urien in Wave 1).

If I had to make my guess for wave 2 it'd be:

2 SF2 icons:

Akuma
Sagat

1 SF3 fan-favourite

Dudley/Makoto

1 SF fan-favourite

Sakura

2 SF3 characters not in SF4

Oro
Q

New Character
 
Wave 2 I expect: One or two new characters. Two from three. Two from alpha.One from sf2 and sf4.

They are focusing on different fight styles, so I dont expect some famous characters so soon

Sadly, I doubt that we'll ever get Q back for the reasons previously mentioned. I'd love to be wrong, but I doubt even Capcom can dodge a lawsuit.
 
I'd much rather see Hakan or Viper return than Oro, Necro, Twelve, Remy, or Sean. We'll see Makoto and Duds before any of those better-forgotten SF3 designs.
 
Really? Would be interested to hear about that.
As far as I know, only legal issues are for characters like Skullomania and Ingrid.

edit: whoops, read reply above.
I doubt this is the case nowadays.
?

There are no legal issues for Ingrid. Skullomania, though, yes.
 
We're not getting Akuma, Sakura and Sagat in one year, lol.

There are a billion characters in Japanese media that are based on Robot Detective K. They're not getting sued.
 
From what I was told by a friend (who apparently did research on the matter, & whom I trust), there may have been legal issues concerning Q looking like Robot Detective K.

It's not inside info or anything, it was just research on his end.
Looking like? Bruh, that IS Robot Detective K. Lmao. All these years and I thought the CapCops had come up with an original awesome character. lololololol.
 
Does Dhalsim's stage music sound like something from The Offspring or The Tea Party to anyone else? That bassline... And I'm not sure why some people are complaining about the OST. It's sooooo much better than anything from SF4 or UM3. It harkens back to SSF2T 3DO; which IMO was one of the best SF OSTs aside from maybe a few superior updates with HD Remix.

Also Karin's theme sounds like something off of Xenoblade Chronicles. With terribly fruity disco keyboard parts added of course.
 
I think wave 2 will be bigger than wave 1 depending on how well the game sells as character Dlc will be the best way to make money for capcom.
Maybe eventually we could get a character a month?
 
Hoping we also get a new character in Season 2, makes sense, that Eishbahn guy could be cool, based on visuals of course.

Sakura would be a fit, just hoping she'd be redesigned, I'd love to see Maki but doubt it a lot, one male from Final Fight (Cody, Guy, or Haggar :P ) and some others.
 
For salt I hope Sakura never gets in. People will sya "But Karin"
Exactly fuck with people's expectations.
Worry not Capcom will fold and give you school girl sakura because on that character they are creatively bankrupt
