I would hope so given people have been making fun of her since that E3 trailer.

Who could that be?
Nope, at best, different lighting.
Capcom: we will fix female characters when our largely male audience tells us they're ugly, but the male characters we hit with the ugly stick?
lol no.
Dante better be one of them.
Also the reason why it's specifically Chun is because Ono himself asked what was up with Chun's face at the comicon panel

What's wrong with Dante's face?
I dont remember it looking particularly bad.

Yep.
For those who don't know Ono disguised himself then asked the question during the panel.
Hopefully Dante.

Doesn't look good if they're talking about a Day 1 patch now. I would have hoped that a lot of issues would be ironed out and ready when the game goes gold.

Capcom lies and omits things to hide their incompetence, unless they straight up come out and mention a specific character like they've been forced to with Chun I'm only hearing fluff about how they want me to buy their game and how everything will be great.
It's no different from them telling us Marvel didn't prohibit them from using the X-Men, but knowing damn well they won't be in the game at launch heh.
Why does it matter if it's fixed by the gold master if it's ready for release anyways? I don't get why it should be rushed if they've got more time to work on these things.
What about Deadeyes Chris?
you want to make a thread about that, go ahead. Also been asked to not quite the whole article.
BTW, I rechecked the article and it does not talk about a day 1 patch.
Ok, well I don't know what to tell you. Ono himself asked the question about why he face is bad, they responded by mentioning her and everyone else in a day 1 patch. Let's not pretend that her face hasn't gotten the most attention.
It's a lose, lose. Damn if you do mention it, damned if you don't it seems.

I wonder who could they mean by "other unspecified Capcom character models."

"I wanna see the receipts".
As soon as it's fixed they need to show it off in a trailer.

So Ken is just supposed to look like the middle image in someone's progression in a "faces of meth" picture? Ya know, like obviously a meth head but not quite the last image where they look like Dumbledore (but you find out they are actually only 25 years old).
I'm pretty sure fans said his face is super busted yet that has been ignored.

Did they ever say they'd fix his face?

What about the overall graphics of the game and not just Chun li's face? The game looks like a early ps3 or late ps2 game with higher resolution AKA an android/iOS game.
But that's my point, when it was announced it was for a Day 1 patch to the game alongside other visual improvements. Selective underreporting in the article.
Obviously wouldn't make sense to make another thread on the same piece of information just because this article decided to keep out details.
People are saying CA is noticeably turned down or removed in the latest build, but I can't tell the difference myself.

I don't think so.
But seriously, Ken only looks shitty in his character select screen and that's because it's not showing off his awesome default costume. MvC:I Chun looks shitty all the time.
That's... demonstrably wrong.
There art style is trash, don't get me wrong but it does not look like an upscaled PS3 game, let alone a PS2 one.
Nope.
To me it's a vote of no confidence if Capcom thought the quality of the game's presentation was good enough this close to launch before the fans pointed and said WTF is this? Rushing to fix some of the most basic and obvious issues like your characters looking like meth addicts as your game is nearing its debut is one of the more obvious warning signs I've seen for a game.
Chun-Li and Dante's faces (and the other graphical horrors) are just emblematic of a larger message that Capcom is sending their fans before launch. It speaks to me that the other features of the game are also going to be similarly treated with poor care. Like matchmaking, for instance, I think is going to be a low quality bundle of laggy connections and unreliable connection indicators.
That's why the "Ken's face" shit is so tiring. He looks fine for 98% of the time you see him.
So...your point was...?

Still looks really bad nothing close to its competitors like MK or DBZ or Tekken 7. Even SFV looks better than this.
True. Trying to make these changes in Day 1 doesn't sound too hot. I am expecting a mega flop. Worse than SFV. Which is sad because I don't know if capcom FG division can take so many failures in a row now.

Maybe Frank, he looks kind of awkward.
Holy shit I didn't know Stallone was in this
Since when does game development just.. stop once you're 2 months away from the launch of a game, especially when we're not talking big changes but tidying up models and presentation?
Destiny 2 is releasing two weeks earlier and is still undergoing balancing in response to feedback as we speak, just like MvC:I is incorporating feedback from recent builds. It's the norm.
