Street Fighter V |OTVIII| New Delayed Generation - Controversial Inputs

12 is absolutely bottom of the barrel character. The only way he should make it in is as the Dojo dummy. i'd be so fucking pissed if that blob got in before literally any other character in the SF universe. He should be the last thing added to this game.
 
Im pretty sure you wouldn't be the first person to experience. Every Street Fighter game has been different which means different people will like it. People hated SF3, people loved SF3. People hated SFIV, people loved SFIV. I mean people have different preferences in the versions of SF2 and the Alpha series.

That's totally true and I get that, but even though I've played ST, A2, 3S and all iterations of SFIV, I've always enjoyed them and was able to express my own style or way of playing somehow. With SFV I just can't and it's really frustrating, but now I don't even seem to care anymore which really saddens me since I've always loved SF.

I like Twelve's playstyle but I also really like this idea. It's a great way to bring him back and leave room for more deserving fighters.

I trust Sneakers 100%. He's the only SF insider I've seen who talks like he's got actual insight into their production and project management routines, rather than the usual Reddit "recycled animation assets" morons.

It's pretty easy to talk like you have insight on development, though. I think a lot of us here could.
Most of his claims sound reasonable, but there is just no actual evidence to support it, and they're not outlandish enough to dismiss them. That's not really saying much.

Honestly, I haven't seen any evidence to believe any of it.
 
Spent over a year on SFV, didn't buy a single costume (well outside of the season pass)

Played DoA5 for like four hours, bought 5 costumes ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'm emailing Ono to release him first in S3, joke's on you.

The difficulty with trusting Sneaks is that his "leaks" are too far out to immediately confirm or dismiss. This is the same issue we have with Kira. You can say something's coming next year, but that's a whole year that we'll go without knowing if you're right until after the fact.

The only thing that really holds everything together to me at this point is that Sneaks and Kira are saying the exact same things, but while one is from an outside source, the other is basing his guesses on random bits of code Capcom left in the game.

Also, nerf Alex.

That's the main reason why I don't believe any X-Kira leaks. If all this stuff is literally in the code, why hasn't anyone else confirmed it as well? It should be really easy but it never happens.

Anyone know what "BCW" is? Some kinda clan? I've seen people with that in their CFN IDs since the game came out, but I still don't know what it is. Many of them were rage quitters, back before the penalties were put in place.

Which is problematic if not vetted. There's a reason stuff like this goes through an approval process here. He's also making claims about KI (lack of) development as well, not just SF stuff. There's no way to know if it's someone just messing with people.

X-Kira posted videos of the stage KO animations and volume 2 trials weeks before they were even announced, so he clearly knows how to mine the game in some capacity.

Throwing a few true things in there just makes the bullshit seem more believable

Twelve would absolutely need GGXrd tech to be faithfully reproduced. He'd cost more than any other character and he's near the bottom in popularity. Plus, I can't imagine how they'd incorporate alternate costumes for him so that's less reason for Capcom to bring him back.

I'd only want to see him if his VT was his X-COPY that he could switch back and forth on the fly. Desk would have a field day.

Hey, at least stuff clipping through Twelve might actually make sense.
 
he leaked Sakura, right?

Then i'll trust him too

He leaked the entire S2 cast way before we had any real idea who they would be (In October, right?) So far he's the only leaker who has a proven track record of having reliable information.

X-Kira's the dataminer who reports on everything he finds but it's definitely possible that he finds stuff and just assumes that it's coming to the game like that wrestling stage. It's highly possible Capcpom considered making that stage a full one and releasing it but just decided to give up on it for some reason, maybe because they felt it might clash with their CPT stage as the de-facto "fighting ring" stage. He has however reported things that turned out to be true, like the Skies of Honor stage , Vol 2 trials and the stage transitions/KO animations as Ryce pointed out. So he reports on everything but you never know if it's something that's actually going to get released or even if it's something that's legitimately in the game. It's a bit of an SFV

SneakersSO is on GAF.

that's about it.

The only leaker worth trusting is Flowtron.
Yeah. That's not to say anyone else is necessarily lying, but Flowtron's the only person whose very specific claims have come to fruition. Anyone can make vague predictions about what might happen a year or two down the road.
 
Just watched Max's USFIV vid, and jesus Volcanic Rim's theme is so good. One of the few great tracks in an otherwise hit or miss OST.
  • Volcanic Rim
  • Cruise Ship Stern (i liked it)
  • Cammy's theme
  • Poison's theme
  • Decapre's theme
  • Ken's theme (i liked it)
  • Ryu's theme (i liked it)

I think that was 4chan if you mean the MvCI newbies.

I've seen a couple of those tags on CFN too and it does seem like they were a clan/group? Here's their FB page. https://www.facebook.com/TeamBCW/

Also, I think you were the first Abigail I ran into online the day he came out so that was a fun learning experience.

ah yes, i remember him.


and Sneakers mentioned Sakura and Sagat too (afaik before flowtron, so he'll get bonus points). I wonder if she has a completely new play style.


btw: X-Kira made stuff up (wrestling stage) but i think many "leaks" from him were leaked weeks ago by other leakers (SSFV, new v-skill system, arcade mode)
