Never did.
yeah even though i liked sfiv's artstyle i didn't like the stages at all, the sfxt stages were even worse. Haven't heard many positive comments from other people either.
It is literally just Teknopathetic who is an internet rebel.
It'll be a good thing to force Japanese gamers to buy a PS4 for games like this, though.

North Carolina? That's right below me; I could take a visit there sometime and see how they do things.

I've always loved how often SF pays homage to stuff from it's expanded media and beyond.
Cody having his infinite combo from Final Fight incorporated into his super combo in Alpha 3 was the best. The Alpha games were chock full of that, really.

At least post the gif so we can see it in all it's glory
Best thing about the Alpha series right there.
Many of the player base they'd have in arcade will play something else instead of running out and buying a console to play at home alone online.

Yeah, I agree. Loved those versions.

There will only be one game release instead of multiple releases, and the rest will be done via DLC over time.
but i thought LoL updates are all free? lol
Sort of, new characters will go into rotation sometimes but you have to pay to use them whenever you want. So new character X is free during December when he;s released but 5.99/a bunch of in-game money after that. At least that's how it was a year ago.

I'm not going to lie, I don't even know what LoL is. If it's league of legends, I thought you paid for stuff in the game already. I have no clue lol
I guess it will just be like KI then, mostly.

Ryu/Ken and Alex/Hugo were the best intros in 3S.But...but...

It would be amazing if this stage made it into the game.
It looks awesome to me. But I imagine that stage properly done would be a drain with the rain falling down on cloth, the grass swaying in the wind, the flashes of lightning illuminating the characters.
Someone never played Makoto mirror matches.
To note, everything that's not a character or new skin is free however.
For Street Fighter the biggest thing here is if someone buys the game at launch, plays for six months, suits for two years, and then comes back they're still in the same player base instead of having to buy a new copy of the game and get all of the updates except the new characters (but can still play against them) for free.
It unifies the player base for the entire life cycle of the product so it's not eternally dwindling with each release just by virtue of people not wanting to buy the newest version.

Ryu looks terrible in UMvC3 especially the hair.
Not a big fan of that scene TBH, because it introduced the dark hado stuff.
according to Ken (which is not confirmed but a rumour) Capcom is looking to go in that direction apparently annoyed with doing the Super Ultra versions. If this is true, how will it work out for them and how will they find a new source of revenue to replace what they were making from the updates is what i am still pondering.
There's no dark hadou in the animated movie.
Well, you'd still have to buy all the new characters and skins. The main difference is you could still play with people who have the newer characters without buying them.
hopefully that can manage them. They seem to be doing well with skins lately after ultra's release or they wouldn't have made so many so far.
It will be dead on arrival in Japan, if it does not get an arcade release.
Yes, even SFV.
Wat.
Ryu straight Vanilla Ansatsuken wrecks Sagat's world, in the anime.
It took arguably the worst video game canon retcon ever, to ruin this.
I on the other hand think they look much better.

Thank you very much.
No, Street Fighter animation is really a level beyond the games you've mentioned. I've been playing fighting games for 25 years and I agree with you.
I still don't understand why anyone thinks SFV being built on UE4 spells doom for Panta Rhei. Capcom has never allowed a partner studio to use MT Framework. (MT Framework Mobile seems to be a different story.)
If DiMPS is doing SFV -- which they almost certainly are -- it's perfectly reasonable that a different engine is being used.

So Ryu's scarring Sagat because of his dark hado was a retcon?

This whole time I thought he did it be because he was an asshole. I think that is mostly due to the animated movie though, from what I remember. No idea if that was even accurate or not.

Pretty sure he just uppercuts the holy fuck out of his chest, scarring him for life. Dark Hadou stuff didn't come along till the Alphas, and was the primary focus of the Alpha movie.
