I'd love a new 2D street fighter tbh
From playing the original streetfighter in the arcades , as well as playing through all tekkens, soul caliburs and mortal kombat apart from the last one, i played streetfighter v when it first came out on ps4 but didnt like it compared to the 4 one then switched to just tekken and soul calibur on ps4, but just recently upgraded streetfighter to all the content and loving it again, i do wish there had been a ps5 upgrade of 4k60 with pc high textures, but im happily looking forward to the next one, for me a graphical upgrade better online code and ill be happy dont want none of this team mechanics or into full 3d

I play on PC but SFV never got a patch for ps4 pro did it? Oof, that seems like one of the simpler things to implement (bumping the resolution) compared to adding costumes and such. Seems strange that such a popular game never got updated…

Thanks for coming here to share how little you know about the series.
Yeah ps4, ps4 pro and ps5 all play the same 1080p 60fps , i think its to late in the game now for capcom to bring a patch now, ive got sfv for pc but my pc is all boxed up while trying to sort out a new house, i just hope sf6 they push ps5 version , but will still prob buy on ps5 and pc

A break? They didn't even want to make Street Fighter V, and they wouldn't have if they'd have to of paid paid for it themselves so I'm not sure we'll ever get Street Fighter VI out of them unless one of the console manufactures is willing to foot the bill for them again.
I do agree that they should go back to a far more 2D looking art style though, you only have to look at what ARC System Works does with the Guilty Gear games now to see how incredible 3D pretending to be 2D can be.

I kind of just want a street fighter vs Capcom type game by the end of this gen. Maybe start off with a Street fighter game and then do Darkstalkers game and then add all of the characters from both games and put in some more characters for the ultimate Capcom fighting game.

Do you know why CvS3 won't happen? Because their deal would have to be multilateral again. Back then Capcom cvs games profits were all Capcom's, and SNK''s were all SNK. Both parties were free to use any IP from the other.
Unless this happens again, I don't see SNK licensing their characters and Capcom wanting to share the profits...

I will add too, for people who are really into the 2D fighters, you really need to get yourself a MiSTer FPGA system as it has pixel perfect NeoGeo, CPS and CPS2 cores available which render the games at 1440p.

For someone like me who isn't very good at fighters but enjoy them and can do basic things and enjoy playing offline SFIV felt perfect. SFV whilst a great game was much harder for bad players (like myself) SFII, Alpha series and 3 are all classics and I regularly go back to them
Would love to see the cel shaded 2D SF.

Street Fighter 6 should play like Power Stone.
Nice! My mister is on the way.
I have Marvel Origins and MVC2 on the 360 (and the inferior PS2 version) but the X-Men games I've mostly played on a MAME Cab as I never bit the bullet on buying the near arcade perfect Saturn version and the PS1 version isn't the best, so I can't wait to play them on the Mister.

I believe SF6 is half way through development so there won’t be a break. Plus they have the Capcom Cup, esports etc for SF.
The series is tired tho. 2 mainline games in a row. No alpha, no EX. Whilst I appreciate Ono, I haven’t enjoyed his direction with the SF franchise. SF6 will be interesting if only to see where the series heads without Ono.
I hope they give some…. Personal agency.… back to players with SF6. A super jump, guard crush, juggles on stun. Something. I’m not a fan of the 2 combo routes for characters, here are the combos that are possible for your character ‘style‘ that 5 had. Let me find something out myself with linking attacks, meaties on wake up. Hell, let me perform an action after the KO flash. Modern SF dialled back EVERYTHING.
I probably trust them more to remaster an old game than create a new one.

NO, now that ONO is gone, is when street fighter will improve.
The think is that ono was still there for the majority of sf6 development, so, to get a 100% "ono free" street fighter we will have to wait nearly 10 more years until sf7 comes out...
A cell shaded street fighter 7 with the sf alpha art style (a little simmilar to what gg strive did) but with today technology

Street Fighter III 4th would be dope. I always dreamed what the SFII characters would look and play like if they were added.

I didn't like SF5 for the most part, the launch was terrible. SFV is old, we're due for a SFVI, but it has to be better; presentation and load times were abysmal. The game got better, but way too late.

The series doesn’t need a break but it needs a masssive facelift, they should be taking cues From ArkSys and do something Cell Shaded and anime inspired, imagine Street Fighter Alpha 4 and it looking better then Strive and DBZ

Nah. We long overdue for SF6. SF5 is beyond old now. We needed a sequel to SF5 years ago. I hate the fact fighting games generally take approximately a decade for a genuine sequel.

It's mainly about budget and profit. Fighters are in general very niche and reviving any of their old fighters might not see the financial return that they want.
At this point, the only thing you might see are ports of Power Stone and Dark Stalkers with online play.

Alpha would definitly be the more fitting for an anime artstyle. And I do hope they don't take cues from arksys for the animations. SF is supposed to be smooth and readable.

They released one streets fighter game last gen and made it exclusive. I dont think they need to take a break, were ready for a new one and hopefully it will be multiplatform

Yes, and they need to partner with Platinum and make a new Viewtiful Joe.

I hope they never again consider not including single player content. I never play online, so multi player only is useless to me.

No, it’s time for Street Fighter VI.
I’m all for reviving old series but not at the expense of SF.

No i say now hes gone the game could change either for the better or for the worse, consdiering he was involved in games like the first devil may cry etc before moving onto streetfighter, plus it was ono who pushed for streetfighter 4 when capcom wanted to abandon it, even streetfighter v was part financed with sony at the start cause capcom wasnt to sure about it, thats why it ended barebones when it first came out as there wasnt many resources put in to helping make this game, and now apparently Midori Yuasa is in charge of the game and looking at her background it been more mobile stuff, i just hope they keep the overtop outfits and not do a mortal kombat and have all females fully dressed and come with some excuse of thats what clothes they would fight in etc like neversoft didNO, now that ONO is gone, is when street fighter will improve.

Other francbises are not popular enough. Other than PowerStone which plays differently and Marvel I don't think it's worth Capcom bringing back other fighters like Rival Schools and Darkstalkers. However they should introduce characters from those less popular series as guest characters for Street Fighter VI.

They make "ONE" Street Fighter iteration per console generation, and you want them to "gIvE iT a BrEaK"?
Holy shit, what's with this forum and concern trolling everything from game consoles to publishers, studios and now established flagship franchises, for the past month or two?

Capcom really should have tried to release a small next gen fighting game at the start of this gen to capitalize on the next gen hype. They could have created something new so they wouldn't have had to have like 40 or more different fighters in the game. On the Capcom versus Snk I don't necessarily want that, it would be nice though. I was just thinking more of like a celebration of all things Capcom in a fighting game.
Capcom versus Anime sounds fun.

I think we are never going back to sprites since the whole alternative costumes business is just not feasible with sprites.

Uh what horrible fighters? SF5 was pretty bad at lauch prolly because they pushed it too early because of their esport endeavours but it ended a very fine SF game. MvCI looks bad but was praised for its gameplay. SFxT was a fantastic fighting game hampered by terrible business decisions (gems, on disc DLC). And SF4 was overall pretty good...

He means characters, or in other words, capcom shouldn't create new characters, just stick with the old 30 year old cast forever.

Ohhh my bad. But then again, SF5 had some fantastic newcomers with interesting/unique gameplay (e.g. menat, zeku, fang). Granted it's been hit and miss overall but I like the fact that they are trying to balance the old cast (re-imagining some in a big way, like Dhalsim) and newcomers.
