Lol. I love these trolly dates.
Guile is due in April and they pick the last day.
Can't wait for the PC mod videos with guile doing Laura/mika poses
I can't wait for Classic Guile/Nash doing the R. Mika CA
Face looks weird in that shot but good in the gameplay...?
That's all the info we have. What else do you want?
I thought this was neogaf, not the gamespot forums. You guys are suppose to have the inside info.
Lol. Poor Bison players. Such a lopsided matchup.With Bison on the receiving end.

Can we talk about the chick in the background though.

"If FK doesn't have invincibility and his normals are actually toned down, don't see Guile being as bad for Bison as before lol"
Flash Kick doesn't need invincibility if he still has a solid cr.fierce anti-air and air throw has decent range. It's not a matter of nerfing/buffing, it's just the unfortunate coincidence of Guile's playstyle and moveset dumping on Bison's.
I do think the match-up will be a lot more interesting in SFV. Bison's absorb is only going to be usable at a pretty long distance, but it does give him a tiny bit of counterplay to getting zoned out so hard by SB. VT is also going to be a big boon here because it allows him to reintroduce stomp & DR a bit compared to the previous "kick me" sign.
I still don't see it as a very easy approach though because as soon as you get anywhere near midscreen on Guile even a tap absorb will probably catch a backfist, and EX boom or V-Skill boom is going to make it a grind.
What I am more interested in is whether Bison's current normals compete better once the space collapses. It kinda looks to me like they won't, which is what'll lopside the matchup overall. Also kind of seems like Guile's damage output is similarly higher overall and I could see Guile bullying him sort of like Nash can behind slow booms. At least in SFV Bison has a better comeback chance and it won't feel like shit is hopeless if you fall behind ~40%.
"Bison can dash through booms as well (not easy to time, just saying)"
Dash through booms and do what? Get punished because Guile's already recovered by the time you start dashing through them?
Bison's going to be in really bad shape in that matchup until he gets some meter to do EX blast or v-reversal if it's a Guile that likes to pressure. That's actually another thing: Once Bison gets a bit of momentum going, Guile's v-reversal will knock him across the screen and reset the match.
I dont get this whole Bison/Guile discussion now. Bison is a completely different character now. He has a V-Skill that reflects and also a Dash that can go through.
Its not going to be played the same way the SF4 matchup was. In that one , Bisons floaty jump was literally the only way to get around.( apart from EX options )
Different games , completely different characters. I dont see why people would need to bring it up.
Bison's total dash time isn't insanely long (22F). You think booms will recover quickly enough that Guile can punish even a predictive dash before Bison can act? (like at a range where dash will put Bison right in front of Guile)
I saw this on reddit its amazing: https://www.reddit.com/r/StreetFighter/comments/4fka34/guiles_new_face_design_is_100_intentional/

Tell that to the USAF, it's the standard attire.He looks great! Although I can't shake the feeling that he looks kinda like a mall cop...
StoryIs that classic costume confirmed to be the battle armor, or is it the story alt?

You can't really dash through projectiles pre-emptively, the invulnerability frames are only during the middle part of the dash. Bison's dash time is actually one of the longest in the game. Even if 22f doesn't sound like a lot, it's still relatively slow compared to others.
I mean this is all speculation without any frame data, of course, but I only see the matchup getting worse from previous games.

Here you go; Basically Guile seems to be design based on the Bald Eagle
