That's why her Premium will probably be the best costume she'll get

If it's her original outfit I'm gonna have to end up buying it like a chump.

 

[Spencircuit]

I'm not entirely sold that Balrog is next.

"The In-Game Shop for earned currency (aka Fight Money) will let you spend your hard earned Fight Money to purchase extra game content, such as new characters (100,000 FM each) and Story Mode Costumes (40,000 FM each). Guile, Ibuki, Balrog, Juri, and Urien will be releasing later this year and each will have a Story Mode costume available for purchase using Fight Money. Keep an eye out though because that’s just the beginning as we’ll have details on additional items in the future!"


Of course, that doesn't necessarily mean anything. I'm just being hopeful, but it's possible they might slightly alter the order from the original DLC images.

 

[Neoxon]

They actually didn't, they just made Chun's rock solid. Not even joking.

Isn't that the same as Player 1?

RAGE QUIT SYSTEM



We’re also happy to announce that we will be implementing a system to punish players who frequently disconnect during matches (aka rage quitters).

The way this will work is the system will identify players who have high disconnect rates during matches and will lock them out of matchmaking for a period of time. Players who have been identified as abusing the system will receive an in-game message notifying them they have been locked out of matchmaking. More additions and enhancements to this system will be implemented in the future.

What a lame ass way to punish rage quitters.

The general consensus was that it would be either Ibuki or Balrog who comes out in May (with the one not in May being released in July), while Juri & Urien come out in August & September respectively

[Mike Golf]

Anyone wondering about the outfit it's the US Air Force service dress blues uniform. Blue slacks, light blue dress shirt in long or short sleeve, tie required in long sleeve although his sleeve roll and hair are certainly not in regs. Belt is also non-regulation and boots can be worn wih service dress in certain jobs but need to be bloused. Although as a pilot he would normally be wearing a flight suit 99% of the time in reality. Nametag and US lapel pin is right though.

EDIT: Lapel pin is only worn on the full service dress, so another knock against Capcom's art department.

This guy gets it.

 

[The Lone Dragon]

What a lame ass way to punish rage quitters.

Umm, preventing them from playing the game and keeping them away from the rest of us sounds like the perfect way to deal with rage quitters.

It's not about "punishing them". It's about making the game more enjoyable for US.

 

[mnz]

Isn't that the same as Player 1?

Nope, left side is correct and has slight physics effects, right side still has no gravity. You can see it on other characters that still have floating pieces of cloth etc.

 

[Lulubop]

His Vskill sounds really good

Nice one of my mains is back If it's like Alex though you can nearly class this as May DLC

This. And in a way, they do get punished either way since they can't go back & earn more League Points or Fight Money for a while.

It's still not enjoyable to lose out on points though.

Hes out of regs though lol. Out side of his sleeves being rolled up there Shouldnt be anything on his collar iirc.

Been a while since i wore my blues.

 

[FSLink]

In theory, not being able to rage quit as often means that it would happen less often.

But it all depends on the implementation. :/

 

[SUPARSTARX]

You're right. She should be pregnant.



And they should just group all the rage quitters with each other in match making through some high disconnect filter.

I mean it really depends on how long this "period" is and if they're gonna do away with manually resetting blatant cheaters.

I'm sure alot of us have had those "Whelp I've tanked 500LP for the day, time to stop" moments, for a rage quitter it's like "Whelp I've gotten temp banned for rage quitting today, time to stop". heh.

 

[Mechanized]

Well that looks fucking hideous.

 

[GinoFelino]

What?

What.
Guile's new costume looks very similar to actual USAF uniforms.

Wat

The hyperbole everytime a new SF character is revealed. It's a Shirt and Tie. Jesus Christ. I can understand the issues with Alex, or with Ken's alt, but this is one of the most inoffensive re-designs I've seen in my life and yet somehow people in here still find a way to bitch about it.

Haha, wow, I didn't expect that much backlash.

The fact that it's inoffensive is why I dislike it.

It's boring as fuck. It looks like a lazy alt design.

If you can't come up with something better, why ditch the iconic green design?

Same goes for Ken. You can't even f*cking buy a normal-looking Ken design. Adding insult to injury, he looks normal in the tutorial!

I'm sorry for causing a commotion, I thought many people disliked SF5's art direction.

Well the air force got rid of BDUs a long time ago.

You can get Ken's design from Street Fighter Alpha, which is basically his classic red gi with longer hair (I.E. the one you saw in the Tutorial), for 40,000 FM after you complete Ken's Story.

 

[mekes]

Very interested in seeing his V-Trigger in action. Think he looks great tbh, hope they nail his theme considering we will have his stage to fight on! Finally a punishment for those ruining the online!

 

[GinoFelino]

Wut. Sure as shit wasn't an option for me. Maybe my store's glitched from importing the US version.

Let's not play the 'realism' card.

That may have been it. Try using an American PSN account to see if you can access the Store.

why did you use the term "mentally handicapped person" to denote how ken's costume looks, yet censor the word "fucking" in your post

also, you can buy ken's alpha costume and you can't buy the costume you're complaining about.

 

[RS4-]

Fuck Guile. Make him a 4th of July release. Give us Urien instead

 

[FTF]

Awww yeah, mother fuckin Guile.

 

[mnz]

Wut. Sure as shit wasn't an option for me. Maybe my store's glitched from importing the US version.

I think you have to finish Ken's story mode and then it should be in the store.

 

[Neoxon]

As much as I want Urien right now, the term "Save the best for last" may apply in this situation.

 

[TheSeks]

That top middle shot is amazing. As is the Street 2 throwback stage.

Hmm... yes... I'll probably buy him even if I never use him because of that.

 

[tariniel]

Guile sounds awesome based on that blog post. I really like charge characters so I can't wait to try him out.

The RQ system doesn't sound that great imo, but we'll wait and see. I'm curious how frequent disconnects have to be before it kicks into effect, and I don't recall seeing anything about them just treating the RQ like a loss. I guess we'll see when the patch hits how it works.

 

[Bad_Boy]

Wut. Sure as shit wasn't an option for me. Maybe my store's glitched from importing the US version.



Let's not play the 'realism' card.

His costume is far from real. Several mistakes can be seen if you want to take it that far.

Im just saying it makes sense to the times. Air force got rid of the classic guile pattern. Plus i think this is the first time major guile has ever been playable in his blues. Thats kinda cool by itself.

 

[skLaFarebear]

Wut. Sure as shit wasn't an option for me. Maybe my store's glitched from importing the US version.

I'm sure you probably know and it could be a glitch, but you need to beat Ken's story mode to unlock his alpha costume in the shop.

 

[sixteen-bit]

the stage is a separate purchase (70K FM)

 

[Village]

I know how in the minority I am, but I really can't stand the SF2 cast for the most part. The slight redesigns are helping some, but I really wish it wasn't inevitable that they'd all end up coming back. Maybe we could just not have Guile, you know? Maybe Akuma doesn't have to return. I know why that won't happen, but it still makes me sad.

SFV feels like it's own thing right now, and I love it for that. Soon enough, though, it'll be "SF2 and friends" once again. I wish I could have had the initial 16 roster for longer than I did, even if that means I don't get the characters I'm missing either. There's something great about small-roster fighters that I think gets lost over time. But, I know, I'm a weirdo on that as well. I was perfectly fine with 20-character KOF XII, and that's practically heresy.

I think it's also selfish, because I know the more characters that are added to the game, the more I'll be pushed away from having any chance to be at least somewhat good at it.

No trust me I value non sf2 characters than sf2 characters, I just really like guile.

Wouldn't mind if blanka, honda, dee jay, t hawk and fei long never showed up again. I don't agree about adding more 2 dudes kind of ruin the vibe of the game, as long as they add different dudes from different places.

I for one, want cody

 

[SSReborn]

Assuming it is not known whether we can take the glasses off and put them back on still?

That's mighty fine nitpicking, sir. Sorry to be 'complaining', I thought I could have a negative opinion on a character's design in here.

That may have been it. Try using an American PSN account to see if you can access the Store.

I think you have to finish Ken's story mode and then it should be in the store.

I'll try both. Not quite looking forward to the story mode thing, though Thanks for the advice.

We're only getting two additional SFII characters in Wave 1. Hell, half of Wave 1 consists of SFIII characters, one of two games that weren't represented in the base roster (the other being SFIV, which Juri covers).
