"Story mode 4 months after the game launches.

If this were any other game, you guys would be ripping it but since it's Street Fighter, it gets a free pass.

Meh."


I can't think of a single predominantly competitive multiplayer game that *I* would rip to shreds over a decision like this. You're certainly free to name one for me, since you're speaking for everyone.

I'd hate on Starcraft 2 if the wounds hadn't healed and I stopped caring about the story and it hadn't already happened I guess

 

[pizzacat]

They're going to flip Guile's Design upside down

2 normals, a million specials

Huge beard, bald head

 

[Scotia]

Judging by the DLC silhouettes, Guile has a new look. I'm guessing Nash's picture is just an Alpha costume for Guile, like how Nash has an Alpha costume himself.

 

[mbpm1]

Huge beard, bald head

Nvm, abort abort

 

[spazchicken]

If this is what it sounds like (an MK style cohesive story mode), then wish granted. Thanks Capcom.

 

[pizzacat]

Nvm, abort abort

You don't want to see him flourish as the bald eagle he is?

 

[Scotia]

I always wanted to see how they'd fix Guile in SFV, seeing as he was one of the worst looking characters in SF4. Just seeing his face alone is 10x better than his SF4 model.

 

[Ferrio]

Guile will have Remy's Cold Blue Kick. Further confusing people on who the hell remy is.

 

[pizzacat]

Just wanted to point out how big bros Nash and Charlie are that Charlie has a picture of him cracking his knuckles


EDIT: smh this is what happens when we start calling him nash

Remy was a character who took a wrong turn and ended up in Street Fighter instead of KOF.

I imagine them both bursting out laughing after posing for that pic and then went out for some drinks for some reason

I hope they make Guile a general or something as part of the story.

Heh.

They probably did that back in the day.

 

[Marvel]

what if her FSE got boosted?

She was also pretty OP in the anime.

Well, never say never I guess. I like Juri, be interesting to see how things pan out for her regarding the story.

Has he even been referenced as Charlie yet in this game?

It seems they're making Nash the default name for him worldwide.

I hope they make Guile a general or something as part of the story.

When I look at his DLC silhouette I get the feeling he has a desk job now

 

[Village]

the right turn, need more skinny handsome dudes in sf. You gotta vary it up.

Nah, if Charlie is mentioned it's usually followed by Nash

 

[spazchicken]

lol A big portion of the SFIII cast is just...man... A lot of them fit better in other games ranging from KoF, to Dark Stalkers, to Killer Instinct.

 

[Scotia]

Nah, if Charlie is mentioned it's usually followed by Nash

I was just curious 'cause I honestly haven't heard him be called Charlie at all in SFV.

 

[TheSpoiler]

So we'll be fighting NPCs then, huh? I've always hated that, but it makes sense despite my bitching.

I bet this story isn't going to be all that good. Nec goes around beating the shit out of fighters, Ryu has to save the day, Bison transfers his body to Nec and becomes SUPER BISON. Either Super Nec emerges (because he's smarter than he looks in his VTrigger form) or it's just SUPER BIPSON.

I'm far more interested in how they fill in the gaps though.

 

[mollipen]

In my conversation with Capcom late last week, that's definitely what was reiterated to me: that all post-launch content had to be earn-able, not just buy-able. There was no stated exception to that.

So, I don't know. That's what I was told. Maybe there was a misunderstanding, or not all plans/decisions are in place, or something else. But what I was told seemed pretty clear.

Well, to show that I can admit when I'm wrong, I was wrong. *heh* Got clarification from Capcom that there indeed had been a misunderstanding in our conversation, and I took it to mean "all content" when it should have been "all gameplay-related content".

So, yeah, I misunderstood, and there definitely will be some things like premium costumes that can't be earned, only purchased.

 

[mbpm1]

What do you mean? You wanted them to connect you to Multiplayer to fight characters in story mode?

That could be cool though.

 

[Remapped88]

FINALLY, was getting worried there for the past few months since they didn't show anything but I guess it coming later is why. Still, I don't mind the delay since it's SF and I'm gonna play it to death regardless, I'm just glad that they're really doing a Story Mode this time besides Arcade mode. If they're doing content updates, I would love to see something like the older SFer's rival intros or A3's World Tour mode but that's not very likely....still would be cool though.

 

[HeartlessNobody213]

What do you mean? You wanted them to connect you to Multiplayer to fight characters in story mode?

I think he was saying fighting characters that aren't playable. Kind of how with MKX you can fight characters like Rain and Baraka in the story mode but they aren't selectable characters.

 

[joe2187]

Ibuki the best.

Can't fucking wait to see what she's like in 5. I want my stun monster back.

Based on the silhouette of the DLC chars, ibuki may end up looking like Omar Dogans "Punk Ibuki" pin ups.

 

[mbpm1]

Oh, I agree with that then.

Based on the silhouette of the DLC chars, ibuki may end up looking like Omar Dogans "Punk Ibuki" pin ups.

Shin will be pleased

 

[pizzacat]

I hope bison gets stuck as dumb stuttering necalli

 

[Scrub Mcgrubb]

Get your eyes checked, breh.

No... I agree. It looks like Guile's SF4 model with slightly higher res textures and rendered either in 3d software or the new engine.

I could probably reproduce it with Guiles SF4 model... but I'd have to reinstall USF4 just to rip the model, not worth the work to prove a silly point.

 

[SarusGray]

It literally looks like they photoshopped in SF4 Guile in a taunt stance

my eyes must be borken den. he looks fine and not photoshopped at all.

 

[enzo_gt]

Dope. Guile to coincide with Story Mode launch would make sense.

 

[mbpm1]

Well it looks fine to me as well, just very similar.

 

[JayEH]

will they finally explain why guile decided to get not 1 but 2 american flag tattoos?

 

[vg260]

If you're going to make that claim, you need to show your work.

 

[Neonep]

I would love to see Guile get a default costume change.

 

[pizzacat]

Someone called him unpatriotic

 

[mbpm1]

will they finally explain why guile decided to get not 1 but 2 american flag tattoos?

And why he made them upside down

What if Guile was secretly...a Russian double agent?

 

[Scrub Mcgrubb]

If you're going to make that claim, you need to show your work.

No... I really don't. If you guys don't trust my opinion on the SF character models by now- you're never going to.

 

[Mizerman]

Power of 'Merrica, man.

 

[DirgeExtinction]

I'm getting SF animated movies vibe from this. That's good.

 

[Gunslinger]

Guile is too iconic to receive drastic change imo. They are probably just going to give him new costume and slight beared. I am almost sure his vtrigger is him putting his shades on.

 

[Neonep]

Agree, just an updated costume would do. I'm curios as to what they are going to do with his moveset considering the removal of most charge moves.

 

[SgtCobra]

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

Do you really think I want Guile to have cyborg legs? I don't care for Guile, if they want to let him keep his default design then so be it, if not then cool.

There is indeed a possibility that he'll get a redesign because of the SFA thing you mentioned though.

 

[vg260]

No... I really don't. If you guys don't trust my opinion on the SF character models by now- you're never going to.

His face looks much more detailed and his nose bridge has a different shape.

 

[Scotia]

I hope Sean turns up in Laura's Character Story.

 

[Scrub Mcgrubb]

His face looks much more detailed and his nose bridge has a different shape.

looks like a higher resolution texture and normal map on the same model that's intentionally been blown out... but that's just my opinion.

 

[Gunslinger]

Agree, just an updated costume would do. I'm curios as to what they are going to do with his moveset considering the removal of most charge moves.

I have a feeling they gonna keep him old school/traditional. Imo guile is perfectly designed. His 2 specials and his normals perfectly compliment each other for his defensive style gameplay. That's why during his many appearance over the last 20+ years he never really changed much. Even ryu received moves like donkey kick but guile is almost always the same. Heck even in mvc2 he was almost the same.

 

[deadeyekiwi]

Something about the guile silhouette makes me think he's wearing a suit because it looks like be has a tie. The picture could have been from when he was in the army but in the story he might have become a business man at this point in his life. Maybe he moved up the ranks and became the president.

Or he finally went home and became a family man.

 

[mbpm1]

I thought he was a family man. He's married and all

 

[Gunslinger]

Nah he had no time for them. Too busy looking for Charlie and fighting bison.

 

[Troubled Bat]

The only president I'll accept is Haggar.
