Street Fighter V Cinematic Story Expansion Trailer, will have 2nd art story at launch
- Thread starter normalmode
- Start date
YAAAASSSS! Gonna grind the heck out of the online mode and properly learn the game during those months. Then I'll play this story mode, which actually looks good and interesting. Focusing on balance right now is the best decision. I know not all people will like this approach, but I'm sure those who care about the competitive aspect of the game will appreciate it.
That's Urien's assistant... Urien is in the game.
The story mode? Its a fighting game. Youre really lucky its there at all.
I honestly agree. Best to get the balance of the game out the door first. As long as the story content is free (which it is), I'm sure most won't mind the wait.

The Q&A during last years EVO. Someone asked cosmetic DLC and they said that it would be earnable with fight money or real cash. But Matt quickly grabbed the mic again and said "Some of it!"

I like these posts.
Urien is the probably the final boss in the expansion. Bison in the Bengus story mode.

First content release is in march
Yeah, you're right. Just looked at this post: http://www.capcom-unity.com/combofiend/blog/2015/07/18/street-fighter-v-a-new-way-to-play
I completely overlooked the "gameplay related" part. I apologize.
I'm sorry I got that wrong. Please don't beat me too badly online.

Somewhat off topic but I haven't played the beta and since this is cross play will there be an easy way to get together with fellow gaffers to play against online?

It's really hard to tell. It can be Caster from Fate/Stay
Well holy hell, I just expected what we got in SF IV - Character story, hand drawn stills, and maybe specific "rival" sound clips from characters. Having an actual story is gravy.
Oh hey, awesome! At least it'll give me a reason to play 4 months after release (other than, of course, get my ass beat online).

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
Pretty similar to my thoughts. Story mode is a nice edition, but not key.
The mode not being fully ready makes me wonder if the game is gonna ship half baked, and then patched later.
Getting the game in February without Story Mode >>> Getting the game in June with Story Mode
Uh... I don't get what's wrong. It's pretty much the same design he's had since SFII.
So, is the cinematic story like Xrd's, where it's just cutscenes? In that case, I'm glad they're not holding the release until it's finished. As long as it's got worthwhile single player content/
The "cinematic" portions are that length, not the entire mode itself. Obviously, fights and whatnot will make it longer.
I don't see Balrog, but the one standing behind the two looks like Sagat.

It just sounds like they had their priorities straight, better have the game now with less single player content than later and risking missing the deadline for EVO.
I just want something fresher.

By the end of SFV lifespan maybe they'll actually close the gap with SF3 and then SF6 will finally be after 3s
Balrog makes the most sense. Everybody else who has their face as a statue in Fan's stage is already in, and he was playable a month ago. Plus, easy to get the low-hype characters in at the beginning when the game is making the most money already.
lol @ the Nash gif with Mika, that's great.
Whoever said Kolin is Urien's secretary, she is in fact Gill's aide.
Lol oh no, Nash stay focused on the mission!
"Cinematic Story Expansion Trailer"
*shows no story*
Seems half-baked to me.
Good lord I'd rather have a blank screen with nothing but text.

There will be Bengus art.

I think they can do some interesting fight like 1v2, some sides rolling beat him up like tekken. Finger cross.
I'm sorry, but no.
Mortal Kombat changed the game. It raised expectations.
Capcom said Story Mode would be there this time around. While the in-game model cinematics is certainly better than the 2D art they've shown for what I'm assuming is Arcade Ladders, the fact that it's coming out 4 months later is a major disappointment.

That trailer was impressive. I don't mind waiting 4 months.
We don't know if Balrog was the only playable dlc character at Capcup. Like I've said a million times he only mentioned Balrog because he was specially asked about Balrog.

That Bengus artwork looks rough
And you'll get something fresher because that's clearly not Guile in SFV since that's a photo pre-SFV Charlie.
Yep, pretty much. I'm excited now, the game is so close.

Its not like its not there at all or you have to purchase it separately. This is better than outright delaying the game.

That GIF needs Laura (Birdie swap)
In my conversation with Capcom late last week, that's definitely what was reiterated to me: that all post-launch content had to be earn-able, not just buy-able. There was no stated exception to that.
So, I don't know. That's what I was told. Maybe there was a misunderstanding, or not all plans/decisions are in place, or something else. But what I was told seemed pretty clear.

Oh god no. Please don't tell me this is going the MK story mode way? Oh god damn it.
Well yea, obviously. It doesn't mean he won't look exactly like that
Would you have preferred they delay the game, miss their fiscal year, and mess up their Capcom Cup schedule just so the story mode can be at launch? Or perhaps rush it and not give it the ample time it would need to be as good as they want it to be?
