Officer Chun-Li costume spotted in latest SFV beta, also some other lame costumes

Literally none of this matters to me when the end result is that I think all of the costumes are bland, boring, unappealing and I would never go out of my way to get them. Contrast that with LoL where, even though I have zero interest in playing that game, I see some of the alternate costumes for the characters and I feel like playing them just for that.

It's about the quality, not the quantity.

Co-sign this post. I've never played LOL and I have no real interest in doing so but a lot of the character designs and alternate costumes are inspired. A lot of them deserve major props!

Laura is a super boring character indeed. And it's not the fanservice - Mika is arguably even more pandering, but she's way more fun and interesting.

I'm kind of inclined to agree with this honestly.

I mean, not everything he does is a winner, to be sure. But man, LOOK AT THIS! Imagine if we were getting more stuff in line with this than, "yeah, she's in a shirt now. Overcoat, no pants though. I don't know". Take some risks with your alts capcom!

Yeah I'm going to have to agree with others in that you picked a bad example. There would be riots if something like that found its way into Street Figher :p
 
I'm gonna be playing this game for a long time. I'd prefer not having to fight half barely dressed bimbos too often. Every time one of these costumes are released it just increases the odds. Just makes me take this game less srsly tbh. One of the many reasons I can't stand Elena.

Ken is a bigger bimbo than Elena though

I'm just saying
 
The only difference is in the camera angles. The costumes are no different. They're how they've always been designed. For example, some have complained about how Cammy's new outfit is particularly skintight. But this is her art for SSF2

Did they actually fix the P2 bug? I could have sworn Birdie's chain was still floating to space in last night's stress test.

I think it's dishonest to act like that's the only difference

Well, I don't know what you're trying to prove. Also think trying to prove anything from the SF2 art to SF5 while ignoring the intermediary changes to the character would be silly if you're trying to show something.

Huh? It's clear as day. Her top is much tighter in more recent games to the point where you can see the detailed shape of her breasts including her nipples. The SF2 design's top is much less form fitting.

In that particular piece of art, maybe. But there are tons of official pieces out there there. She's pretty consistently shown with pretty large breasts in-game and in art.

Yeah I do not quite get people using an art piece to compare to ingame work when Chun's goods have always been pretty tight.
And do not go working too hard on looking for a sprite to match what you want to show, again Chun has always been rather tight and the spinning bird kick always had a wee bit of a dirty giggle.
Alpha Chun was the one that probably had the tamest outfit.

You can't compare 2d sprites from the 90s to 3d models in 2016. Chun always had the sex appeal side to her. Better technology just allowed them to express it more.

Laura's costume is a traditional attire of my people, don't mock it.

I can't find pics to prove it that are not NSFW.
 
Chun-Li has always been sexy.

As for the comments about her tight clothing, what do you expect her to wear? Her tight clothing is way more practical for martial arts than frayed jeans and a boyfriend tee.
