They want a serious outing about magic karate man and China flying super cop taking on telekinetic mega-Hitler. Sure, fine.

Eh, I get it. "Just do a tournament" could be cool, I guess.

Although part of me thinks let's have the makers of Operation Raccoon City make a dark, mature SF spin-off that ends with Ken being gunned down in an alley. That's the edgelord contingent taken care of, more fun for the rest of us. :)

SF has gone edge-lord before:


Alternative title:
Capcom promises to fix Ken's hair.

*Loading screen loads and my opponent is using Balrog*

*Announcer lady says "Good Luck"*

Girl.

I dropped a set winning combo. fml
 
I really hope they make Ryu a good character (again) one day :(

He's just so much fun to use. He's arguably the most "fun" to control in this game, it's just the balancing that's letting him down.

Ken's more fun to play tbh

But If I had to pick a shoto, its Akuma or Sakura, and my girl ain't in the game yet so its demon time

could never
We don't have a spreadsheet? Huh surprising. I'd add my CFN and deets to it if happens.

Congrats zero! I am 200 points shy from it myself.
 
Let's set some predictions in stone guys. What are you expecting to be announced today? You get two chances to guess and 50/50 Capcom (unless they use an EX DP and both options are wrong).

I'm thinking either a retro game port(s) or something game mode related.

What I want

Alpha and Third Strike with GGPO on PS4/PC

What we'll get

Some costumes no one wants

I don't expect much of anything.


But will the session be streamed?

Ono said months ago there would be a few surprises around Comic-Con/E3 time and nothing surprising has been announced so far.

Unless the Ryu stage was the surprise.

And I doubt it'll be streamed.

Not expecting much tbh.

Not happening : SSFV

Wishful thinking : a glimpse of what's to come in what's left of season 2

Realistic : costumes, costumes and more costumes (for Chunners)/ a fixed version of Abby's trailer

3SO on PS4 would make me happy. An Alpha GGPO collection would also be good.

Both of these guesses are things I think could happen but one is much likelier than the other.

1. Menat reveal and she's going to be in the 7/25 patch, maybe.
2. Some costumes and maybe a stage.

What I'd want is an SSFV announcement or Capcom throwing in some extra characters this season, specifically Sagat and/or Sakura because they're coming eventually regardless.

I ideally want him to have less stubbier normals but I'll settle for more damage and more juggles/ better oki from anti airs. I really liked using Ryu in USF4, he just felt so STABLE. Here though...

Also, this is so fucking hilarious.
I feel like they really did him right in S1. He was still a little stubby, and he definitely had some bullshit (that jLK can go straight to hell) but he really felt satisfying to play. I think somebody (might have been Valle) once said that even if you took S1 Ryu and dropped him in the game as it is right now, invincible DP aside he might still not be top tier, because the game has changed too fundamentally at this point. I really hope they figure out what to do with him, because he can be so much fun to play.

They'd be crazy if they announced SSFV before MvCI comes out.

Naw fuck that shit, he was a Gundam in S1 with no bad matchups or weaknesses and could damage as well as he defended. I'm with SnakeEyez in saying he was a bit too well-rounded in S1 despite his stubs.
