Try designing one of these stages yourself and see how much effort it takes.
Hint: it's a lot of work.
Actually I'd reckon a III char is next; Capcom seems to be alternating between the two (III, 2, III, 2, III, IV), and I'm guessing it'll be Ibuki since they haven't had a new female yet. After that it could most likely be Balrog, then Urien, then Juri.
Well it sounds to me like Arturo must not play much single player. Which wouldn't surprise me.

I doubt people will moan about Balrog/Sagat nearly as much as Blanka/Honda. I'm patiently bracing myself already.
Regardless, I like to see how these characters are redesigned too, even if it's not a character I'm interested to play.

He probably hasn't touched it.
Avg person with avg patience is probably going to have around 300-350k from the SP content.

He looks great! Just bought the season pass this weekend. Ready to play him and see the changes.

I can't imagine one that would displace the original as the best theme, but I'm willing to be proven wrong here. It's actually the reason i'm most excited for Guile. I just hope it doesn't get tuned down to elevator music style like Alex's.
So much this. Will be interesting to hear what they come up with.
With Guile now coming in, I'll have my old SFIV main back. Whom I only played because I couldn't play Charlie in that. So this will be interesting!

What's the season pass get ya? Characters and this stage as an added bonus?

The 6 DLC characters of this year, a premium costume for each of those 6 characters and this stage.
EDIT: and until the Zenny store (The real life money store) is patched into the game, the only way to access the premium costumes for Alex and Guile will be if you own the season pass.

the 6 season 1 DLC Characters, 1 premium costume for each DLC characters, and 1 stage free...

At the time it was announced, the stage wasn't known. People who bought it originally were paying for the characters and the costumes. The stage was later added in as a freebie.
Pretty clear they're going in order of the images here. Alex being first confirmed it for me, but Guile coming next couldn't be coincidence.
sigh... for some reason SF5 isnt doing it for me i was holding out hope for juri to revive my interest but that probably wont be till august, on the bright side glad they are adding new stages and guile looks pretty good

Of course it's work. You know what is more work? Modelling and animating a convincing human character with dozens of attacks and balancing them against an existing roster that continues to grow.
Hint: I was speaking in terms of relative effort so your reply was basically a nonsequitur.

that's true lol..
I don't know about you guys, but the fact that the Capcomunity site just doesn't work whenever there's an update post is so... Capcom. Can't even get the server right on your own website?
About Guile, I was wondering how they'd make the lamest character in fighting game history more annoying, and they appear to have exceeded my expectations, although I'll hold out until I play against him. I expected rapid boom nonsense, I didn't expect forward charges. Meanwhile, Fang's vtrigger does what exactly?
Yeah Vega Gief and Sim get so much play, they're so popular that's why they're at the bottom of the charts as far as usage right. But by all means, continue.
lol @ 70k for a stage.

Don't leave us hanging. What's the proper effort to FM ratio we should be looking at here? Can a stage's worth of effort be a unit of measurement? 10ST = 1CH?
After Guile and Balrog, you have two SF3 characters and one SF4 character coming.

None of that requires above average Patence though...I don't know how to play with anyone besides Ken. Competing easy and normal survival is the bulk of my FM. It's very easy.

I don't think it will be as bad. Bison has a projectile counter and teledash now, and though they probably won't make that much of a difference against Booms, he's generally nowhere as barebones as he was before, which was his biggest issue. He has tools now.
Though, we still don't know much about the character. Could very well still be god awful for Dic.
Ibuki may be before Balrog.

Is sim gief and vega the only members of sf2? What are you talking about?

It's like you've had this post ready since the DLC characters were announced months ago or something.
Pretty clear they're going in order of the images here. Alex being first confirmed it for me, but Guile coming next couldn't be coincidence.
The thing I hate about that image probably being the order is that I won't get Ibuki until July.
I know I'm probably in the minority with this, but I kind of hope she plays a bit like her SFxT self, just without the ridiculous holding forward to do her TCs (since the dial-a-combo isn't in this). I liked some of her SFxT changes like the dash on Yoroi Doshi and some of her extra juggle options.
So characters that aren't Sakura, Sagat, Akuma, Balrog or the rest of the SF2 cast just don't matter? So what if you 'adore' these characters, not everyone else does. And what's wrong with people 'begging', as you put it, for characters they like that haven't been in a game for a while? Also, why should I care if the pros are waiting for the characters they want to play as? I couldn't give a shit if they have to wait for the characters they played as in SF4 to, no doubt, show up in SFV. I've waited years for Alex to be in a SF game again. If I can wait years for a character then those poor pro players can wait a few more months for the characters they want, even though they've managed quite well without them so far.

I'm pretty sure more people want Sagat more than random character that showed up in one game way back when.
Yeah I am fine with the DLC character spread so far, but I hope it isn't just an alternate path to the same end goal as SF4, which is to say SF2 SF2 SF2 remember when SF2 was fun guise look it's Blanka. I really wish they would allow the community to vote for at least 1 of the yearly characters.
Actually my biggest source of concern re: the SF2 re-re-retreads is that out of all the current characters, the ones I personally find the least fun/rewarding/fresh to play as are Bison, Gief, Chun and to a lesser extent Vega. They're all better than their SF4 iterations, but still not what I consider fun. On the other hand, Ryu/Ken and Sim got proper reworkings and Cammy is alright.
I doubt it dude. That reasoning got tossed out the window when Capcom received overwhelming feedback in favor of having Alex and Karin in SFV. Meanwhile, three people want Blanka and you're the 2nd person I've seen say they want Sagat.
So no one should care for any character outside of SF2? lol
Just because people are more vocal about a character doesn't mean the rest should be ignored.

Can someone explain the "money" system to me? All the DLC characters are either pay with real money or use in game money, right? I beat all the story modes a few of the survival modes (on normal) and have some "credits", I guess. The points you get from that is the money, right? I don't want to spend any of it on the dumb different colors if I have to buy the characters when ever Capcom decides to take them away.

I didn't say that but getting fan favorites should be a bigger priority to get in rather than some obscure ass character

I notice the explosive barrels. I wonder if this stage will have post-KO interactions like the Bustling Side Street stage
I get that it's a part of his look but goddamn I cant stand the sight of his hair. They were able to mess around with other characters hair but felt the need to keep his extra ridiculous hair. A military haircut isn't going to ruin the character. I mean its not like hes in his classic outfit anyway..Why even bother changing his outfit? I also felt this way about character costumes as they were being revealed before launch. Ken gets a new look but everyone else has the same old shit? Bison and Dhalsim seem like last minute tweaks.(Check out the mod that removes D's beard and turban or Bison's 'cape.' They instantly become classic versions of themselves) Where's the consistency? Anyone who picks up a Street Fighter game will know who's who.This isn't some new no name indie series.
That muscular brunette with a red headband,Ryu. Blonde dude with thick black eyebrows and long hair,Ken. Asian chick with thick thighs, Chun-Li, Tall burly dude with a beard and short mohawk, Sumo Wrestler, Petite fit chick with long ass pig tails,Boxer with a fucked up hairline..etc It just drives me crazy. I'm gonna have to swap or mod in some unique defaults. I thought for sure we'd get fresh new looks and that the classic outfits would just be something they'd sell to us later but man was I wrong.
I'm glad he's in and that they changed his look up a bit but that classic hairdo is just too much for me.I'll be looking out for a mod to change that hair.

Would you consider, say, Alex a fan favourite if he was in SF4? 'Cause it seems a character has to have been in that game to be considered a fan favourite these days.
Also, how is a game like SF3 or Alpha obscure lmao?
You're right, I forgot about Honda and Blanka. That's 40% of the original cast. You made the general/sweeping statement.
09er syndrome. SF4 sold well therefore the roster was perfect and anybody not included is not perfect and therefore obscure. Blanka, man, what a must-have. They should have scrapped Fang for him.

You're just proving my point. What's wrong with Capcom catering to the what a large group of people like? And releasing the same characters every game because they are staples of the franchises? Nothing, just like there is nothing wrong with new characters. The problem is, people are selfish and want new characters all the time at the expense of people who like the classic. I can pull up the threads when people thought Ken wasn't in, they were glad and happy because "no more Ken army online" Ken is one of the most popular characters in the game. A huge chuck of the fanbase would want him in, but no lets get eagle to replace him -_- that's the logic i have a a problem with. I want the game to sell, and for it to keep growing, if popular characters help, then put as many of them in as possible. If everyone falls in love with Urien, he better be in the next one. I'm not just concerned about what I want. If Snake eyes only plays zangief, then I want zangief to be in there. His play entertains thousands of people around the globe and the community learns from him.

SF is likely on a sliding timeline, like the Marvel comics universe. Meaning "now" is whenever they say it is.
Alex was one of the most highly requested characters for SF5.
Omnistalgic

.... Yeah anyway. I don't know what point you are even trying to make. Ken and Ryu and hands down the most popular characters and there are some that don't even want both of them in the game at launch lol. My point is, the larger user base likes classic characters, and it would be stupid to ignore them. Also there's a ton of people that don't play online or ranked, so having usage as a barometer to a characters popularity is probably useless. Alex Urien, guy, Sakura, I'm not just talking about sf2 cast but popular characters in general. Put em all end if it's going to help grow the userbasse.
His hair is literally his most defining feature.

Paying attention to the popular characters is important but diversifying the roster is also important. This is something I feel Capcom has done a really good job with the roster.
You have your popular SF2 mainstays (Ryu, Ken, Chun Li, Bison etc.),characters we really haven't seen in a while (Karin, Mika, Nash, Birdie), new characters, and DLC featuring more popular characters and some highly requested ones that haven't been in a game in a while. All while making sure the entire roster in terms of gameplay is varied and different.
I understand the frustration of getting more SF2 characters but considering we're getting 6 DLC characters and only 2 of those are from SF2, its pretty good, imo.

I wasn't talking bout Alex, karin or R. Mika at all tho so what's your point?
Pretty clear they're going in order of the images here. Alex being first confirmed it for me, but Guile coming next couldn't be coincidence.
There was another leak that also had Alex, Guile and then Juri as the order of the three first characters. Then either Balrog/Ibuki (I don't remember) and Urien for last.
Never realized that, so far, this image was also true.
I prefer to believe the leak because I need my Juri.
