I hope they bring back as little as possible and try to make something brand new. I've gotten to the age where clinging to the past annoys me.

I hope over 80% of the roster is new. I hope all the stages are new and aren't based on anything in the past. I hope that returning characters have reworked special moves with different motions.

Not seeing the Marvel there at all unless we're talking the seemingly OTT air sequence from Chun on Ryu. The color palette and character design isn't there.

I kinda wish if it looked more like Xrd with Third Strike like character designs, but this is cool looking too.

Chun Li' face and the coloring kind of reminds me of the night stages in marvel 3

I go to bed and I miss the hype around the announcement, god damn sleep... I hope they make it play like SFA3 without all the brokeness of course. I want legit juggle combos back (like guys SFA3 combos).

Seriously though, the intern that didn't check off "private" when uploading the trailer... they're probably facing the firing squad as we speak. Imagine walking into work at Friday morning and the bossmen are sitting at your desk when you get there.

It's incredible how often this stuff happens, too. You'd think that companies would change their policies somehow.

On the other hand, I could see this being an intentional leak if we have DMC5 and DD2 tomorrow. It would spread the hype out.

Maybe Capcom is just trying to help NeoGAF from crashing tomorrow.

It's like they borrowed from SFIV as much as they could while trying to hide the fact that they borrowed from SFIV. It doesn't look different enough to say they have a new art direction, it just looks like changed the models a little and added darker shadows.

Its surprising how much like this happens especially with outside vendors. Dropbox is not secure, do not put stuff on your own home laptop, no you cannot put it on unencrypted laptop.

It could only happen if the intern is someone who is totally oblivious about the gaming industry and his own company. I mean if you work for Capcom you should know that uploading the teaser of freaking Street Fighter V is going to be a big deal, so you should pay extra attention before hitting the button.

Though it messes with Capcom's plans, this works out far more in their favor.
People are talking about it now.

When it would've been announced on Sautrday/Sunday, it would've been buried by the return of The Last Guardian and Dragon Quest XI.

Upon second viewing the visuals look good actually. The cartoony designs from SF4 are dropped so things look a bit slicker and polished as of now.

Not gonna happen. 3rd Strike killing off Street Fighter for a decade is why SF4 is the way it is. There's no real reason to not bring back people's favorite characters. It's a fighting game, not an RPG. Story doesn't matter, characters are just conduits for people to express themselves through a playstyle. If you cut Dhalsim, you either need another character just like him or you need to keep people who like playing him from playing your game. What's the point of either?

If you want to know who's in the game, I'd bet anyone here a hundred bucks that every single one of these characters makes the cut for the first release of the game:

Is this where the actual discussion of the trailer is going on, and not turning into a console war topic?

Any chance of big community heads doing a stream together for a "conference" of sorts today?

Spooky, Arturo, Gootecks, Mike Ross, J wong, Floe, K Brad, etc etc all one one stream talking to each other about the hype!

the differences (or lake thereof) are comparable, but I certainly wouldn't say that 4->5 is "way more noticeable". i see your point but maintain that 4->5 is the most minute change, which is disappointing to me because previous numbered entries stirred the pot considerably.

More detail, same wire frames, same fugly style, same Abobo dudes, and Chun with Abobo hands.

Less HGH, more pleasing asthethics, please, Cacpcom.

We probably need more gameplay footage but I feel like there is a bigger difference.

Yeah I see where you're coming from. Since I'm fine with the art style, it'll really come down to the game mechanics for me.

If it's complete shit, I'll still buy it anyways.
