I'm not seeing a point in the future where Ryu, Ken, Chun and Akuma are the only SF2 characters in a SF game. I'm sure Oro, Urien, Gill, Alex and other SF3 characters will be used well into the future, though.
See my post below
Honda, Blanka, T.Hawk and Dee Jay will forever be at the bottom of the SF2 totem pole. They've been reduced in prominence since... like GAF's inception lol.
My friend can't wait till Ibuki comes out to he can play as her. Especially Juri.
Especially DJ and Hawk. At least Blanka has a chance, loathe as I'm to admit that.
To be fair, anything outside of SF3s plot wasn't even brought up, so we don't know where Cammy, Guile and the rest are. Just because they weren't in SF3 doesn't mean they're dead or anything. The only clue we got to the other WWs was that Chun Li had something to do with taking down Shadaloo. If we ever go past SF3 in terms of storyline, I'm almost certain that more WWs will turn up. Hopefully SFV's story will explain why those characters weren't around in SF3.

Yeah same way Mika, Birdie, and Nash were absent from SF2, 3, and 4.... SF characters never die- they just become background tier.

I found it very interesting if we are going to have Balrog and Guile first then it would make more sense with story mode coming out in June 2016. I would expect Urien to be third DLC character since I'm pretty sure that new story mode is going to based on the arc of Fall of Shadaloo and Rise of Illuminati.

I am very surprised. I thought they were quiet cause they didn't have shit. They finally stepped their game up with a real story mode. Plus rollback net code, great graphics add some fun game play modes and mini games and this will be the best sf game so far.
It literally looks like they photoshopped in SF4 Guile in a taunt stance

Who this is?
Bae by the looks of it.
People have mined the latest beta files and found no FANG related assets or models. I don't think he will be playable. Capcom could remove character dialogue all together for the betas. I just want to see how he plays.

Glad we are getting an actual story mode and not just that awful Bengus art that people were somehow ok with being the only story mode in the game...
What? No it clearly looks like a new model, probably an alt.

Because you can have a story that's presented nicely but still boring as shit to watch if what actually happens isn't interesting.

Better to watch in game models than this terrible art:『Inaba Resident』;193280276 said:

Yeah, that one drawing looks bad. Everything else I've seen looks fine to me.
MKX's story mode was presented nicely but extremely fucking boring and forgettable. Massive waste of time.

Looks like Guile's character design is basically the same. This may be controversial but he is my least favorite looking character.

You know, an easy way to head into the future. Naming the game something other than Street Fighter but still in the same universe. Like, Garou: Mark of the Wolves.
I see it as Guile coming first, then Alex, but I'd really love it if Alex came first.
You're trippin' if you think that looks like a SFIV model.
He also looks younger then his SFIV version, which bothers me. But I'll just pretend it's Alpha Guile.

I suspect it's an old photo meaning that's an alt and not the default look. Obviously he's not going to change a ton but I doubt he'll look practically identical to SF4.

While it looks like the story is going to be taken serious the same cannot be said with the stages.
What the hell is this? Why is there a pink ninja chasing a robot in the background in a comedic fashion?

^^ Karin's stage has the same ninja I think. Watch it be Dan disguised.
I reckon the picture Nash is holding is supposed to be Guile in his Alpha or SF2 years. More than likely, his default look in the game will reflect an older, bearded version of himself.

Oh I see the difference now.
Bengus probably drew it.
jk
Either way I'm expecting this to be an old pic. Charlie has been dead for a while after all.
It's because I am okay with the first story mode at launch. Some people may not, but that's them and not me.

I imagine "Money-grubbers" would be the term a lot of people will be throwing around.
But that was for an Alt costume.
Whoa. He looks way better in SFV. I hope thats not the default though, I'd like to see him updated a little bit.

Of course everyone wants a good story, but if you have average to terrible looking art you are left with a bad story and bad art. If you have a good presentation but terrible story you'd at least for once in the series see the SF story fleshed out (outside animated series and movies), so it would be worth it. And I can tell you that I don't have the confidence in Capcom to produce a great SF story so I'm glad they are trying a good presentation approach as well, because seeing just bad art with terrible line delivery would make me skip through that shit so fast.『Inaba Resident』;193280621 said:
Not everything. There have been a couple of online betas. So the online warrior aspect should be decent.

Love to see a proper story mode, love to see it uses the game engine instead of the horrible "Bengus" sketches (I wouldn't call them illustrations since don't even have a background) and love to see Guile back.
The story trailer really hyped me. Cant wait!
Btw, Guile looks great in that photo. I love his face, rendered way better than in SFIV. Let's hope he looks like that, at least in a classic costume.

Nah, I can't do that. If it turns out to be a terrible story, then all the graphics in the world couldn't convince me to let that fly.

You know, I want Remy back for the low hitting booms. He's the only character that has such a projectile.

I know right? I had the urge to crack my knuckles and tell people to be family men just by looking at that picture.
Just let the Shadaloo-arc die already, I'm ready for some more Illuminati. Still interested to see what direction they will go with this story, it's strange to finally see a Street Fighter game with a half decent story from the looks of it 
Twist: Guile has cyborg legs. Make it happen Ono-san, don't grace us with the same boring ass design just because some people want their nostalgia fix.
Default? I'd say "Yo what the heck"
As an alt? I'm very interested
Man, so much hatred for that bengus artwork ... meanwhile I grabbed myself a new wallpaper.
I'm actually curious just how many drawings the guy had to do , The tutorial had about a half dozen images and well, imagine if there's and intro, middle and end cutscene for everyone comprised of even 3 images a piece to tell a short little story. That's 16X9 (or at least a month of full time drawing if each image takes even 1 hour) drawings on the low end , the stuff that's been shared so far looks 100% digital , not sure if bengus did the coloring as well but it's quite a bit of work for one guy. I think they look fine , it's not his best work by a long shot but it still looks good to me.
I'm getting too damned hyped for this game

How does this mean Guile has the same default design? You know Ken and Ryu have alpha alts in this game, right?
