I downloaded the patch but the shop is still disabled.

As it should be, the store will be up with the Wednesday/Alex patch, albeit without the zenny transactions.

Character guides are even more barebones than I expected. Nothing about how to play the character, it only tells you what SOME OF the special moves and V-trigger do.


....lol

Also, dat lack of QA on the Cammy demonstration. I try to check my typing before I submit a post, shame Capcom doesn't have my extreme commitment to excellence.
 
Alex has slash elbow and the stampede stomps?

Hmmm. I was originally pegging him to be a lot like Birdie with how the official Capcom blogs were describing his moveset.

I have a love-hate relationship with how Alex has been revealed. I both like and don't like how seemingly the only time we're going to see him in motion is when he actually hits the game.

So it's safe to say that Alex is still the hybrid grappler he once was in SFIII since we now know that his elbow & stomp charge moves are still there, right?

R.I.P. Spiral DDT

Someone streamed him early. He has everything from 3s aside from ddt but he has a new headbutt move anyway
 
Holy shit most of these alts are so bad. Carrying that sf4 legacy into next Gen. Rashid's is straight up racist. R. Mikas would be cool except for the stupid wing ears.
 
I would be fine if Alex's SFV voice still sounds like he came from Manhattan.

You can hear a very short clip of his voice in the voice language menu.

"Let's doo dis."

EDIT: Oh wait, I think they took him off the select screen. Earlier today, he was still selectable (though you couldn't play as him).

Did he say anything on stream? I'm mostly only curious now as to his inputs, whether he kept his hybrid motion/charge stuff (which admittedly seems like it would fit right in with SFV) or if they made him entirely motion.

Apparently Alex has all of his SFIII moves (elbow & stomp included) except his Spiral DDT, but a new move was added in its place (I think it's the headbutt that Capcom mentioned).

Wait, can he still turn people around with the flash chop, then do b.HP to put them in sleeper?

He scrolled through his movelist briefly a few times, I wasn't really paying attention the inputs. He definitely has charge moves however.
