And he cut his hair into a mohawk, and got tattoo removal for his bicep flags
Yeah I don't know how people can say the model is the same. Guile looked like ass in SF4 and the photo alone is better than his SF4 model as a whole.
Never.
tbh a shirt and tie and a beard would do me fine

HOLY crap how cool would President Guile be! We already have Mayor Haggar... step it up Capcom!
He transferred to the X-com project

Who this is?
She is Urien assistant, not sure what's her name.
She was in the new comic with Charlie tell his backstory.
FTFY
For real. He looks awesome. Now I really want Rose even more. She could have a decent face. The vanilla characters look rough.

It's not ignorant, it's an integral part of the game, not DLC or anything, and it's not done. Yet they are shipping the game as complete anyways, not calling it "Early Access" or "Beta". Doesn't matter if it takes time and effort, so does the rest of the game. Would you be happy if they left multiplayer out of the game, and only shipped that as a free update months later?
No it isn't

Seems that way. Really hope that by the time season 2 starts, they move on to Illuminati already.

I think to some people it is. However, it is free if I am to understand correctly, so there is that.
It's actually the very definition of DLC. They even call it an expansion.

Now it is, they were hyping up the story mode for quite a while, this is a step short of a bait and switch. People expect a full product at launch and they were expecting this to be part of it. I'm not too bothered but defending this is really lame. I'll give them credit for announcing it a month ahead of release though instead of being super dirty and just launching without saying a word to keep some pre order sales.
Would you be happier if they delayed the game? The end result would still be the same, except now we actually get to play multiplayer which is the main focus of the game.

That woman with Charlie doesn't even have the same hair as Kolin.
I don't think there's anything to defend. There are two story modes. Complete with voices, art (however questionable in quality) by a classic capcom artist for every single character in the game at launch. That alone is more than we've ever received in an SF game.
Later we're getting a fully animated story mode.
I don't know what the definition is of a full product anymore when developers are constantly adding things to a game. My definition is whether or not I'm willing to pay for what's at launch for the price they're asking. If people don't like that they don't get their hour of cutscenes, then just wait until it's done. You can get the game a bit cheaper 4 months down the line.

It's funny. In four months, this entire argument will be 100% meaningless and forgotten.
How is cinematic story mode an "integral part of the game" when they've never done it before in the entirety of Street Fighter's 30 year, multi-million selling history?
Come on, now.
Street Fighter was BUILT on multiplayer.
Street Fighter was NOT built on cinematic story mode. At all.
One is obviously much more vital TO STREET FIGHTER than the other.
This anaolgy is one that someone unfamiliar with the franchise would try to make.

So, not only are we getting 2 stories, but we're getting the second story later (Meaning they might add a short story each season)? Awesome! I'd say that it's already looking better than MKX's story, but that wouldn't be too hard...
And as for the woman in the Ushanka, I'm split between her being Decapre or a brand-new fighter. I know Kolin can easily just change her hairstyle and outfit, but the face doesn't really look like her, either.

A SF being delayed for story purposes is blasphemous, especially when it's gameplay is complete.

Its pretty much a non-issue brought up by people who most likely aren't going to buy the game. Heck whatever news we get people are going to complain. I am glad the game is coming out early instead of waiting on them to finish making some cutscenes.
Watching high level of play >>>> Any story SF can come up with.
WOOW...
I am surprised you arent complaining about Capcom not allowing us to Beta test the Story mode. Gotta submit those issues with plot holes and stuff ya know.
Not sure why people think the Ushanka girl is either Kolin or Decapre.
It looks nothing like Kolin, and we have a clear shot of Decapre still in her doll uniform and mask already in the trailer. Plus, Decapre's face is burned on one side, which is why she wears the mask in the first place.

I can see a new story mode expansion dropping early 2017 involving the rest of the first wave of DLC characters (maybe even a couple from the second wave).
This guy gets it. Above all else, Capcom has been pushing the eSports aspects of Street Fighter V. Delaying it over a cinematic story mode would completely screw over the momentum of those plans, especially if it meant that SFV would miss a ton of tournaments (including EVO, which would be bad news).

But but.. corny and cheesy is like the bread n butter of SF Story.
It wouldn't be SF without the cheese and corniness. ^_^

Should have had show tunes instead.
I am getting tired of that heavy drop sound in every trailer though.
Yep. Its about as overused as the horns.

Okay I'm fine with admitting I was WRONG.
Hair is a bit more flared on top... larger forehead, slightly more pointed nose, different ear shape.
Still think his classic costume will be an alt and his default will be something new... but apparently I'm just a big dummy.

No, I agree with you. They seem to be giving most characters Alpha alts and it seems Guile is no exception. I fully believe Guile's default will be a new design.

So now, something can't be an integral part of the game if it hasn't been in the entire series since the beginning? I guess online play isn't an integral part of the game then? Ultras, not integral? 3D polygonal art, not an integral part of the game, eh?
In this case, single player with storyline has been in the game since the first Street Fighter, just not at this level - it has slowly gotten better with each new game. But Capcom *has* been promising that SFV's story sequences would rival the competition's (MKX).
Street Fighter 1 (Fighting Street on Turbografx) was obviously designed as a single player game first of all, when playing multiplayer there was no character select: one person was only Ryu, the other player only Ken, they both had the same moves (because in the game's main mode, it was just Ryu against all the enemies; thus for two player they just palette-shifted him and gave him a new name). Final Fight was supposed to be the sequel to the game, another game based around single player (but with co-op added). Street Fighter 2 continued the limited multiplayer, not allowing the two players to choose the same character nor being balanced for multiplayer play at all (two things that were changed in Championship Edition).
Don't get me wrong, multiplayer is an important part of the game and series of course, but it's not the only important part of the game, and there are many of us out there who mainly play Street Fighter games for their single player mode. And SFV's big new thing for single player was supposed to be these cool story sequences.

I do agree that it was a bit of a faux pas to say they were focusing on it but not deliver on time though.
And no one gave a shit about SF1.
Regardless the story content isn't done, they either delay the game which would be incredibly stupid or release it now with the story content later. The first option is better in every way, no matter how much you complain the story content isn't going to be done by the original release date.
And you and those people are a small minority.
That is just something you're going to have to accept.
His hair will probably stay the same judging by the silhouette, but I do think we'll get some kind of new outfit for the default.Okay I'm fine with admitting I was WRONG.

So call it what it is, Early Access or Beta. Go back just a few years and they *would* have delayed the game as incomplete, just like plenty of games have been delayed until they got online multiplayer working though the local multiplayer and single player was complete and polished. Just because everyone won't use a planned and advertised feature doesn't mean the game is complete when that feature isn't done yet.
Not that small, if Capcom is willing to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on single player content.Skab said:
No, because Multiplayer is the critical component of the game.

I hate to break it down to you but you guys are a small minority, those who buy SF for 3-5 hrs of SP story are few and will likely drop the game right away. You should be glad capcom even bothered cause 4 was laughable.. People don't buy SF for story even if you say otherwise.
Yes, that small. The amount of people who play SF for story mode is absolutely minimal compared to the amount who play it for the multiplayer.
Just because they have decided to start putting an effort into that mode with 5, doesn't suddenly mean it was that way before.
I'm sorry but the fact that you're actually trying to argue otherwise is laughable.

Man when those images are put side by side it seems like such a massive upgrade.
God damn did Guile have a bad face in SF4.
Guile looks miles better in that SFV pic than his SFIV model. I'm glad to see them doing a good job at modeling these characters.
So story mode DLC is now the new controversy for people who will probably not even play this game that much. I'm just glad we're less than a month away from a new Street Fighter. To think just one and a half years ago I believed we wouldn't see a new entry till 2019 at the earliest.

Only 3-5 hours? I buy Street Fighter games for dozens of hours of single-player versus AI. Once in a while I'll play local multiplayer with a friend or coworkers, but most of my play will be single player. I have one friend and one coworker who play similarly (I also have one coworker who will *only* play multiplayer).
