Street Fighter V - Guile Screenshots (April 2016 DLC character)

Anyone know how to switch out music on PC? Will need his original theme in there.

The last Soul Calibur and Tekken Tag 2 both had selectable BGM and DLC BGMs.... yet another missed opportunity with this game. I guess that's expecting a level of competency and insight that's beyond a team that's already 2 months late in getting their in game currency up and running.

I have to admire them for doing absolute jack shit to control the PR damage however. Usually companies would step in to fix stuff like that, but Capcom don't give a damn.

I really like his victory pose

I thought i would never have to say this but ... Guile is lookin' freakin' badass.
 
Hopefully we'll get a full trailer soon. While I understand the decision behind holding off Alex's trailer until he was out, releasing the trailer beforehand & giving a definitive release date within the trailer can build just as much hype (if not more) than releasing the trailer on the same day as the release of said character.

So a reason was given for the late Alex trailer?
 
With Shigeno (a.k.a. "woshige") and ComboFiend at the helm working on battle tuning, you can rest assured Guile will be balanced just like the rest of the SFV cast. Those guys live and breath SFV day in, day out.

Meanwhile, expect a bit more info on Guile...very soon.
I ain't gonna trust woshige after what happened last year at Evo breh.

It's unfortunate the information leaked early, but the plan has always been to launch the trailer alongside the actual content release. This is a launch trailer after all.

The trailer probably doesn't mean a whole lot for most gaffers here and core fighting fans who have been keeping track with the latest SFV news. But for those who don't follow news regularly will see the trailer and expect the content is now available.

Think of it as a launch day trailer/advertisement for any given game where publishers will want to maximize buzz and make the announcement actionable ("NOW AVAILABLE!! GO BUY NOW11!!!!!11"). That's your typical go-to-market strategy in a nutshell. ;-)

So never technically late.

They said it wasn't late. Alex released when he was officially available, not as a teaser for the release. Capcom stated they want the trailer to get people to go and boot up the game for the new content by saying this is "Now Availabe"


Beaten like a horse
 
The USAF does use F-22s as well, but they have different roles. The F-16 is a multi-role fighter, while the F-22 is an Air Superiority Fighter. F-22s would be primarily used for air to air combat, while F-16's are used for combat/recon/electronic warfare ect. The F-22 is also much more expensive, resulting in just under 200 planes being built, compared to the 4,500+ F-16s that have been produced. The F-16 and the F-22 should both be replaced by the F-35 Lightning sometime next decade, if they ever get that thing working properly, but as of right now the F-16 will probably be the primary fighter of the USAF until the mid 2030s.

Thanks for the explanation. Guess the reliable F-16 is not such a bad choice after all, both in the game and the USAF.

In a game where the half the cast is already white + blonde

I have a feeling that Capcom has forgotten that not all hair is either black or blonde actually. Apart from Vega's alternate look, I don't think there are any brown haired characters in the game (unless you count Ryu), let alone any red haired ones...

Necalli has red in his hair
 
I think it's the worst.

First 10 seconds are rad, 40 seconds of some jackass jazz jam band going off and then we finally get the theme at 50.

The good part of Guile's theme is not the guitar part. Everyone thinks it is, but they're wrong. It's the bass part that's actually awesome. Without the bass, it's trash. Can't have frosting without the cake.
 
Looks great! Can't wait.

Only disappointment is the music. Too mellow.

Was hoping for something with a little more oomph and rocking a bit more like Ken's.

Still, I can live with it as his new look is fantastic as is getting his classic stage! (even better for free with the season pass)

Hard to tell if the background characters are 60 fps in the YouTube video, but it looks like it. It's going to be my stage of choice if so.
 

Been maining Guile since ST, and this looks sweet to me.

One question: I don't think I saw a plain sonic boom launched and travel full screen. With the V Skill increasing the staying power of the sonic boom, does that imply that the regular boom will not travel as far? or does it simply mean that the powered up sonic boom will hit twice (as the video shows I believe)?
 

He looks awesome, I can't deny it.

As does the stage despite my earlier niggles about it being a direct throwback. It looks like a classic Sega "blue skies" / Outrun inspired stage, which is always a good thing in my book.

(Now bring Balrog and his Las Vegas stage next month as well Capcom! The world of SF needs more neon and glamour.)
 
Whoops, I think you might be right about that part.

Would've been brilliant if they had let you store a db charge once you commit to the crouch-walk state. Then you'd have access to both moves.

The difference being 3s Alex is in the future. This Alex doesn't look like 3s Alex yet.
Who says Alex's story couldn't have ended with him donning the look he would go on to have in SF3? Anyways my point was that it's not a given that characters with redesigns will have their OG looks repped (at least not right now).
