thats just capcoms way of justifying there laziness. they didnt want to bother balancing out sf3 characters with sf2, plus any new characters as well. capcom is also very aware that, EVERYONE is familiar with the sf2 roster, thus more sales. to me its becoming more and more apparent that this is a "sf2 repackaged". add better visuals and change around move sets all you want. i know the truth

It looks great, but it just feels stale to me... the backgrounds, all of those old characters, lack of parrying, etc. It's like a regression...
Star Power said:
Most of the videos we've seen, no one uses the advanced systems that have been added in. So we cant really say that yet.
Besides that, i've had tons of heated SF III matches with friends on consoles, friends on arcade machines, and strangers on arcade machines...and parrying didnt factor in THAT much. Lets just wait until we see people who really know the new system before ultimate judgement.

In what regard?
Kintaro said:
Yeah, I feel they should only go to the cut scene when the super will kill the opponent.
Star Power said:
The thing is, Ryu uses a focus attack to get pass Guiles sonic boom and move in for more pressure. Its not a parry really, but its another way to gain ground on the other person.On the other hand, look how far the EX fireball pushes guile, along with other fireballs. Fireballs MEAN something int his game this time around. They are worthless in 3s because of parrying. Well, not compeltey, but they arent used as a way to push someone into the corner like we are seeing in SFIV.
Beyond that, if you see he uses the charged focus attack when guile is stunned, it leads to a crumple. Imagine if he did that when guile wasnt stunned, gets the crumple, jumps in for a big combo, guile is stunned, another combo, ggpo. ALOT of possibilities going on in that match that I think some of you are missing.

Well they looked pretty smooth moving in the first 1up/gamevideo clips earlier on. Then again im just a straight up SF fanboy, so take my words with a grain of salt.
Also this is nice: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Y2gFim9-c0
But yeah I agree the supermove cut needs to be shortened down. That gives people too much time to prepare a follow up.
haunts said:
Yeah that would work.

SFIV is still looking pretty meh so far.

Looks amazing, I do hope they have an option for no cutscenes during supers though. They look cool but they will get old pretty fast, I think.

I'd be so much more into this if SF3 had never happened.
I can't blame people for being tired of the SF2 characters. It's not only that they're old but more that they've already found there way into every other fighting game Capcom has made. SO their return is far from fresh. Plus many of them have already been rendered in 3D in the EX games so that aspect isn't new either.
That being said I'm still going to buy this game and have it for dinner.

All the animations look so damn floaty... I hope they fix that.

Hahaha. Nice gif.
In Capcom's defense, if they made the animation too fluid, it would totally screw with the timing of precious combos.
SF3 has been out FOREVER people. Im sorry you missed the boat, but I was going to tournaments when it was hard to get even 10 people to even show up for that damn game. Now similar tournaments have 70 something people in the bracket at least. It's gained a lot of popualrity, but its too little too late. We need a new game, and SFIV will deliver, end of story.
When a friend and I camped out in front of a 2nd Impact machine all day to learn parrying, we were the only people to play it. This was within a month of its release.
Where the hell were all you SF3 fans when the games were new?
Meanwhile, I don't know why anyone would have reasonably expected SF4 to use sprites in the first place, particularly after that first trailer came out. To most people, sprites = SNES game, no matter how well its animated.

this game looks laughably bad, and I am shocked that anyone here defends it.
This is next gen and we are getting semi 3d?
capcom is hugely milking the sf franchise with all there damn remakes..
I am just really dissapointed in this game.

Do not want. :<haunts said:
Best netcode in any beat 'em up that's available on consoles too.Teknoman said:
As someone else already mentioned it in other threads: plenty of people didn't even know SF III existed and Capcom was too busy competing with itself at the time.dog$ said:
I like the new vids. Really want to get my hands on it so I can decide for myself. I think some speed tweaks will make the game look better.
It is good that parrying is out, because that's SF3. SF4 is going to be something new, hopefully. And I agree that fireballs aren't half as useful in SF3 as they are in SF2, which I hope SF4 remedies.

Big difference there pal.
First of all, those series you just listed have new games released in regular intervals and have been on the scene way less of a timeframe than Street Fighter has.
Second, Street Fighter has done more milking so we've been exposed to these current characters, and SFII gameplay alot more compared to all those other series.
Lastly, go play Tekken 5 and tell me it plays like Tekken 2.

Seems like the gameplay system is a tune on SF 3, with half the characters playing like their alpha/3rd strk. counterparts according to the reports, so I really, REALLY don't see the connection to SF 2 so much, not anymore than alpha or 3rd strk. (specially since alpha 3 had all the SF 2 chars)
Its an odd thing to complain about, really, even if the game was a throwback to SF 2, so what? Wouldyou complain if a new Zelda was throwback to Link to the Past?

Ferrio said:
Hmm.. I guess with me, its not so much the characters in the game but what you can do with the gameplay itself. I see a lot of possibilities with the Focus Attack. throw in the EX moves with each character, and potentially 4 brand new characters, thats a pretty good start. Like Ive said before, SF3:NG was a pretty pathetic start when you put it next to SFIV.
I think what we're looking at with this game is the best of both worlds, old school and new.

Then the former fanbase they're banking on returning for this installment won't understand.drohne said:
shuri said:The lack of parrying really makes the game feel like an updated ss2t. My interest is really going down the drain. Just add it back, for gods sake
Did you watch that video I posted on the previous page? You should take a look at the focus attack and see how it can be used for similar purposes.
