From the images, characters are now affected by environment light, and don't seem like they're in their own dimension. The shadows seemed like they're higher res too.

Is the announcer still the same? His "heaven or hell" sound like he's not that interested in the fight, a let down compared to the old announcer.

Didn't notice any announcer change (but wasn't really listening for it). I plan on going back tomorrow and trying to get some shaky cam footage (if possible). If you have any specific questions, lemme know!

Sagat is still easily the worse of them all. The dude is 7'4 and he's suppose to weigh 171 pounds. Again that's 7'4 and ONE HUNDRED SEVENTY ONE POUNDS. Even a extra hundred pounds would be far too little for the mass he's packing at his height.

Ryu's new weight seems fine. It still doesn't actually match his massive frame from the games but that's supposed to be exaggerated so it's fine. With Bison I think they over did it, they should probably shave 30-40 pounds off his current listed weight.

Maybe they meant to say he weighs 171 stone?

Funny running into people randomly talking about SF. People may not play fighting games or follow the fgc but the characters are universally known.

Every time I imagine people talking about characters, I imagine them sounding like Filipino champ and saying "MY KEN MASTERS DAWG"

I think their strategy of introducing pairs of one old and one new character is a good one. The old roster can be brought back up while they also introduce newcomers at the same time.

I think they need to stop soonish. GG matchups are heavy stuff with lots of minutiae, and a GG with a big cast would be pretty insane on the required prepwork.

This reminds me of a Go game where the players explained their own moves in spoiler tags as they made them. One commentated as if it was a game of Starcraft :D

Playing tengen became proxy rax, a corner invasion a cannon rush. It was hilarious :D

At the loc test. There are a lot of small UI tweaks. The pre-match text stuff is different (heaven or hell, dual 1, etc etc). Looks more old-school GGish. The shading/shadowing on the chars themselves looks nicer now too. Lots of little electricity effects on the burst/tension guages.

Yeah, there's a lot more decoration on everything. Really, really don't like the new countdown timer and the solid color backdrops on character portraits. They look like they don't belong there.

I left the loketest at around 6 or so to make it in time for the mikado 3v3 but towards the end I saw ppl doing some interesting things with jonny and yrc. Char is going to be...interesting. normals feel strong and a lot feels intact

The game in general got a lot of aesthetic changes. As other users have noted, there is a lot more flash on animations and the hud got a major face lift. I think the flow of the game has changed with regard to hit stun and blockstun the game felt slightly different to me. It's hard to describe...

jacko seems really interesting. Even though she is clearly designed for BB players, she has a lot of interesting tools. I fuck with this character

got wrecked by sammito and koichi in the tourney x_X
