Love the Ken & Ryu in the MMA garb

Scavenger XIII

Makes me want to bash my head off the wall for a good hour thinking how somebody is rejecting these awesome designs in favour of the cack they keep releasing...

Sairus

I would have loved to have seen Cammy in that Alt even if it's the same as Rose's Alt 1, especially if it saved us from the monstrosity that is her Catwoman alt.

K.O.Kiki

OMG

<kikimaru> they... they make the women look hot
<kikimaru> even Makoto
<kikimaru> even MAKOTO

Balrog needs a bandana and sunglasses. Seriously. That looked fantastic. Also, Strider Guy would be most welcome. In fact, dressing any characters up as non-SF characters would be most welcome. I'd use Ken's original K' costume if every emo on the planet wasn't already using it. And, uh, if I played as Ken.

I can like without Dominatrix Rose, though.

I want to pay cash money for a mode where i can't see alternative costumes.

Anyone else notice taht throughout event hubs forums there was this whole "arcades are getting 7 new characters" even though there was only two extra blank slots? Finally found what caused this! Honestly dunno how someone could fall for it though I do think Alex and Q would make good additions to the game.

K.O.Kiki

I'd give the old "This is too awesome to be real", but then SFxT and TxSF got announced the day after...

GorySnake

Rolento and Q, they better be announced September. Alex more likely though.

Owwmykneecap

ono will ruin arex.

fake

Oh I know its fake. The pics stand out too clearly and the fact that we know theres only another two characters coming for now. Just was putting the pic up because alot of posters on eventhubs and SRK seemed to accept this and I thought twas funny.

Yeah, there isn't even a random select slot. Looks cool though, the character profile artwork is nice

Dunjohn

Yesterday, I discovered that Guile has an alternate taunt where he puts sunglasses on. Now I finally know what you guys are always talking about. Woohoo!

I think I'm playing SF4 backwards. The more I play, the scrubbier I get.

It's prob just as you understand the system more you recognise the silly things you do more readily.

By broadening my attack, I've blunted my focus. The more I speak, the less I've got to say.....etc.


These days I've discovered that I'm concentrating more on trying to perform fancy combos, than doing my hit and run mindgames which have served me so well in the past.....

Yeah and from what little I've played of 3rd Strike, most of those characters would make fun additions! Really like Alex in TVC and I try to use him or Q whenever I do play 3rd strike. Doesnt Elena have a healing move though?

Dunjohn

It's an Ultra so it may not make the cut if she's in SF4. I've always used one of her other two Ultras.

K.O.Kiki

Indeed, since SFIV is slower & makes it harder to punish something like that, it may be a deciding factor in ruling her out.
@Dunjohn: The 3S cast in SSF4 all use their old Supers. Ibuki is a slight exception, she uses one of her 2nd Impact Supers as well.
Elena never had more than her 3 Supers in all 3 SFIII games.

Of course, worse is that almost ALL her moves could be blocked high, even crouch attacks! At least she had kara-throw.

Sairus

They could do something with Healing so that it gives her back a chunk of grey health. She then has to avoid all hits until it fills up with actual health or she loses it all - sort of like the opposite of Gen's touch of death thing.

That's actually kind of a cool idea.

Forgot about SF4's Supers, didn't I. Well, back to sleep then.

does charging count during an ultra startup animation
for example
can guile charge for a flashkick during a particularly lengthy ultra startup like ryus, if before the ultra startup he wasnt charging?

Note: This information came second hand from an unnamed source, so please take it with a grain of salt, but it was stated that:
• There's going to be at least 6 characters added to the game.

• Capcom was originally hoping for an October release date, but back then they had only planned on adding two extra fighters.

• They pushed the release date to December so they could add more characters in to the game.

So who're everyone's guesses?

Alex, Elena, Shadow, Morrigan, Sheng Long and Blanka's mom.
