Planning on hosting this week's VF room on XBL since the servers are better. probably VFDC people will attend, might be streamed. I'll let you know when I think it'll happen when I find out.

I'll be paying close attention to this thread, then.

 

[hitsugi]

I could believe R.Mika making it in even though I think she would look strange with the art style of SFV, but Karin? Nope.

[Astarte]

This is the 2nd one in the series. It's kinda a poor waifu's SamSho with assists.

Oh geez, the second one? I'll play it.

 

[enzo_gt]

Karen and R. Mika? I'll believe it when I see it. Fan wish list until then.

Awesome, will dig in when I get home.

[TheChits]

That is a sick poster. Damn

 

[Karsticles]

Its that time again...

I just need music that helps me concentrate. If the music is distractingly bad, then it is harmful to me winning. I usually can't hear anything when playing at locals anyway.

I really dislike the Street Fighter II music in Ryu's Smash stage. When someone goes down to one stock, it speeds the music up, and it increases my stress level. It becomes a little harder to focus at that time.

 

[Tripon]

Its that time again...

The music in Smashville makes me go to sleep.

 

[sf2fanatic]

I don't understand why they wouldn't have both Ken and Akuma. Both of them are ridiculously popular and can be created at a lower budget due to being just model edits of Ryu anyway.

Saving spots for

Spoiler

cyber Akuma and Evil Ken.. I wish.

But in real they have to bring back Ken and Akuma.

 

[Horseress]

Someone is trying to VxG eSports

Spoiler

It's worth the read guys, this shit is HILARIOUS

 

[JeTmAn81]

I don't know if I'll play SFV if it doesn't have Akuma. He's the only character I really connected with in SFIV.

 

[Skilletor]

They'll be easier to package DLC sets by leveraging more popular characters.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Yeah I expect them to have "headliners" for each DLC bundle

 

[enzo_gt]

Yeah I expect them to have "headliners" for each DLC bundle

I await the inevitable rage over them talking about DLC before release, counter-balanced with the rage over them not talking about DLC before release.

 

[Shouta]

OK kiddos,

It's not too long until Evo and I've already got most of Q's stuff setup for the trip. It's time to collect.

If you forgot how much you wanted to send to help out. You can find it on the spreadsheet.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1CaY-ivbUOZpjdHwDw0ZLATnMDIWTfNMfNbYwzWwBvEg/edit#gid=0

If you folks could send me a PM, that would be much appreciated. Otherwise, I'm gonna gonna come after you (and really just send a PM).

 

[kirblar]

List is bullshit, has 12 names, none of whom are Birdie/Cammy.

Plus I can exclusively announce here that Street Fighter V will be playable at Summer Showdown!

Spoiler

Playable on a DVD player on a side TV at the event.

Verendus mentioned in the other thread that the new VF will probably get announced next year.

Any specifics? It'll probably be an arcade trade show, right?

 

[Thomasorus]

Maybe Aou Arcade game show in february?

 

[Tripon]

I would assume to be at TGS.

Nope, didn't say anything beyond that.

Probably at WWDC2016.

 

[Retromelon]

I don't know if I'll play SFV if it doesn't have Akuma. He's the only character I really connected with in SFIV.

As an elena fan i lol at u stressing for akuma

 

[call_kotaku]

Alex Valle's SFV Ryu is much better than Daigo's

 

[IntelliHeath]

Calling bullshit because Ken is on this list.

Well, Ken always made on initial roster in every games in Street Fighter franchise so I wouldn't be surprised that Ken is going to be on the roster. Again, I would be okay if they chose to save him for season 2 so they could have few headliners that would convince people to buy season 2.

 

[Karsticles]

Did Killer Instinct get that? I know people were annoyed that it launched with so few characters, but did the DLC/Season model receive hate, too?

 

[Master Thespian]

Verendus mentioned in the other thread that the new VF will probably get announced next year.

Didn't he say SCVI would be at E3?

 

[Onemic]

Alex Valle's SFV Ryu is much better than Daigo's

Valle parried and punished cammys standing forward and punished it. So looks like Ryu's parry can be used to punish things in footsies.

Money sent.

As long as you aren't parrying a jab, you'll normally be in good shape.

 

[enzo_gt]

Did Killer Instinct get that? I know people were annoyed that it launched with so few characters, but did the DLC/Season model receive hate, too?

KI just had it amplified a bit because of the initial confusion/lack of clarity over the structure of the game. I remember making a thread about the developers calling the F2P basic game a "demo" and people getting upset it wasn't a retail title. The model received hate as well, even considering how cheap it was for the base package, but it was in the wind once people got a handle of it and IIRC leaderboards showed a shit ton of people downloaded it anyways.

I think any big title gets it. Pretty much every game has post-launch support today, but people have difficulty reconciling that to get that out to people in time for it to retain customers you have to start developing before release. If there's one thing I can bank on for SFV, is that whenever the list is finalized and x person's favourite character doesn't get in, there will be rage and progressively crazier theories about holding characters back to nickel and dime, etc. It's an inevitability for every fighting game iteration, really.

Side note but I wonder how Skullgirls would handle character selection for a sequel. They've put so much time/money/effort into these assets and I can't imagine they'd drop anyone, and probably be hesitant to change stuff for the sake of keeping characters fresh too.

 

[jerry1594]

Didn't he say SCVI would be at E3?

And Monster Hunter ps4.

 

[kirblar]

I could see a "sequel" be more along the lines of Super Skullgirls to allow them re-use of assets.

 

[SoldnerKei]

Esaka?

 

[Shouta]

Got it.

 

[JeTmAn81]

Yeah, Akuma is usually a shoo-in but I'm just sayin'.

 

[CountBlack]

I got a feeling SFV is gonna be swagless

 

[kirblar]

I got a feeling SFV is gonna be swagless

Combo system really doesn't lend itself to styling on people- the mixups are where you're gonna get that.

 

[Horseress]

I got a feeling SFV is gonna be swagless

Nash and Old Man Bison tho

Teleport mix-ups are hella swag

 

[Shouta]

I'm sure folks will find optimized swag combos in SFV. I don't think anyone's figured out how air hits work yet and there'll probably be other methods for optimizing damage..

Definitely not gonna get SFxT level Swag combos though. =(

 

[Dahbomb]

There's going to be swag especially with V Trigger activations.

But there won't be Evil Ryu 15 second combo in the corner with a bunch of FADCs and crazy links.

 

[enzo_gt]

I got a feeling SFV is gonna be swagless

You play SFIV, look at SFV and worry about it not having swag?

 

[BadWolf]

I got a feeling SFV is gonna be swagless

Don't go by stuff like Daigo/Valle's Ryu footage, they aren't really playing SFV Ryu.

Check out footage of Combofiend (especially when he plays with Mike during a Q & A session a couple of days in) for a glimpse into what the characters will be able to do, he did a lot of good stuff with Ryu, Nash etc.
