Has it been confirmed yet if PS3 sticks will work with SF5? I want to preorder it to play the beta on my friend's PS4, but not if I'll also have to buy PS4 fightsticks this early.

Imma main Birdie and chuck bananas at Count.
And when he gets mad at me I'll say don't blame me blame Ono's racist ass.
Capcoms next black character revealed:
First thing that came to mind mentioning Capcom and racist shit in SF...
Set the tone I guess. :kappa:

They did make Dudley so I think Capcom just has unfortunate implications. I mean they made Josh in RE5. Then you had the jungle place where the area of Africa the game is based in is NOT where you find those jungle people.

You're still in the Marvel mindset when talking about 2 button dash. There's no canceling dashes in Street Fighter, you have to commit to it. In that context, 2 button dash wouldn't be any faster than double tapping except for an instance where a character has an extremely quick dash. You can cancel a dash in Marvel just by sneezing so of course a 2 button dash would be quicker than double tapping there, not to mention all of the options you have at any given instance during said dash. Street Fighter doesn't have that style of gameplay and is naturally slower, so 2 button dash isn't needed since, again, it wouldn't be any faster than double tapping.
Dudley isn't black.

It is still faster. Just think about the necessary physical motions:
1) Have the urge to dash.
2) Tap once.
3) Tap twice.
4) Dash.
vs.
1) Have the urge to dash.
2) Simultaneously press forward + two buttons.
3) Dash.
It's still one step less.
I'm not coming from a Marvel mindset. I play a lot of fighting games, man. I wish I could two-button dash in SFIV and Xrd, too. I loathe IADing in Xrd. Hell, part of the reason I play Blanka is because he doesn't ever dash, lol.
I guess SFV doesn't really have other options, since one motion + two buttons = EX version.
As long as we don't have to deal with any wacko inputs like Blanka's Ultra...2? We're good.

are there 3 variations on the super based on strength of button pushed?

He's based off Lennox Lewis.
This isn't super indicative of anything, and Birdie's punk image subverts race stereotypes WAY more than it supports them. Birdie also a weird case because they changed his skin colour up (IIRC?).First thing that came to mind mentioning Capcom and racist shit in SF...
Set the tone I guess.
I still think Dee Jay is one of the worst as far as race representations go. Islander with a shit-eating grin and dancing around to da riddim everywhere. His VAs never help.
Don't know
It's about getting into the dash, not coming out of it. With a double tap dash, the fastest you can possibly go from neutral to dashing is 3 frames, and that's assuming a perfect input. With a button dash, that becomes 1 frame. It's not really a statement that can be argued.
I don't care either way but it's weird how the only games that seem to embrace button dashes also have overlapping pushblock inputs.

Preach about the badness of DJ. Capcom will never be forgiven.

Some people say he's of central Asian origin.
AFAIK only on cammy but thats based of distance not strength like Makoto
that would be interesting if he was't based of a BLACK British Boxer

I thought Dudley was black... WHAT IS REAL ANYMORE?!
Phoenix Wright's Turnabout mode. Gets you blood pumping and you feel like you have a lot of power in your hands.
Time to go full blown anime.
Translation:
Its the booty game. Cammy got hers, Juri's gonna get that treatment too.
Please put her in the game. Please.
Its that time again...

Can't we get a better dark-skinned woman in the game than that? We don't need two characters dressed like Cammy in a 16-character roster. Might as well start calling them C-16 and C-12.

I'm talking about SFV; I'm not sure what your first sentence is really asking. Elena could be cool, but it would (theoretically) be even better if some fresh blood were added. I'm not sure Elena's moveset fits well with SFV.

He's based of a Black Boxer in the UK. People sometimes misidentify him as Indian.
He looks nothing like Chris Eubank. M.Bison / Balrog is literally Mike Tyson.

Mike Bison is a litteral rip off. Dudley is no so much a rip off like Balrog. Also I think Capcom went chicken shit after that one.
Didn't know he was based on a real person.
People are too obsessed with booty these days. They need to bring back Rose to balance things out.
I always wondered why they switched Deejay with Balrog's roles in the movie. Were they told that all americans had to be good?
I didn't know horses could come in green.

I feel you. That guy looks boss.
I thought Dudley was pakistani? I don't know where the source of that even is.
Kind of relevant to the discussion at hand: I think many people missed a lot of the SFV interviews over the past week, which had some stuff of note (and perhaps not useful when put together):
This one with Matt Dahlgren has him saying:
"I think Birdie really sets the tone for the direction that we're headed with the roster. I don't think anyone really saw that character coming, he wasn't necessarily highly requested by the fans, but we still want to surprise people."
This one with Capcom Europe's Community Manager says they've paid a lot of attention to fan feedback when it comes to who makes it in, and they'll have whole roster out by Spring 2016.
There's another I'm looking for now where Matt Dahlgren talked about the research the devs did for the stages to ensure the authenticity of global representations (lol) but I can't find it ATM.

The struggle is real looking for good looking dark skin characters in anything video games breh.
I mean I got the Inklings and I'll claim Impa, that's good enough right? /s
I realize this probably speaks more to my naievete about gaming due to little experience with a bunch of stuff.

Of course it's worse that Capcom USA made DJ but America has unfortunate implications of black people.
Keep in mind the dude they based Dudley off had the Dandy persona with the top hat and monocle.

I dont think Japanese interpretations of ethnic characters are any better.

I think both are shit. But the US should know better, but it's America where if I pick up a gun in a store the cops will shoot me, so I'm no surprised at either. Both countries are shit at it.

I didn't know black was a nationality. He's a black guy from British India whose personality is based on a boxer. He doesn't have "black" stereotypes the way other characters do because he's a stereotype of a colonial British aristocrat.
People just needs more Kushood Butt!
I really like the design on the right. Not a fan of wearing a gi, though.
HERESY!
You know it's true, brah. Give it a couple of years and folks will jump off this bandwagon into something else. Maybe armpits.
