Support NeoGAF

[Seijuro]

didnt they say explictly that this is not gonna happen when they released it?

You are purchasing a "service" that adds stuff over time. If they should release a SSF5 disc version it will be the regular SF5 disc. They will charge you extra for Season Pass characters. Modes etc have always been free,

It's merely a marketing thing, if existing customers get it for free, no different than releasing a season 3 pass labelled "Super".

This. Nothing to see here but a fancy named 2018 Season Pass.

 

[RedAssedApe]

A reboot/relaunch/rename makes sense regardless of what they said at the beginning. As existing owners wouldn't be paying if this is true.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Fucking DUH! Anyone thought otherwise was delusional.

 

[lucebuce12]

Isn't that a downgrade?

Not to people who love Edgelords!

Probably the same people who wanted Red Hood over Constantine in IJ2.

 

[always crazy bacon]

it'll shut up the arcade mode whiners.

No need for comments like this, adding arcade mode takes nothing away from the game you are already enjoying. Having a"playpen" for newbs to practice will add to the potential new online players.

Defense? In SFV?

It should also damage the opponent if they get too close cause of the shockwaves

I wanted both and I moderately dislike Remy

Q's V-Trigger will be Total Destruction and cause his trenchcoat to explode, revealing his chiseled, thong-clad body.

Change approved.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Still no Makoto

Pick Laura. She's the Makoto of this game.

Defense? In SFV?

True.

Low tier always.

 

[BronsonLee]

Choosing between Necro and Remy is like choosing between being punched in the face or kicked in the gut

 

[Neoxon]

Q better have those defense buffing taunts

I'd imagine that it'd be a V-Skill like Alex or Urien.

 

[lucebuce12]

¯\_(&#12484_/¯

Well, I guess not every Alex fan is bad.

Choosing between Necro and Remy is like choosing between being punched in the face or kicked in the gut

Street Fighter 3. The pinnacle of Street Fighter.

Which do you prefer?

yep

a re-launch with the super name is a great idea. assuming it is actually going to fix all the problems with the base game

 

[Spaced Harrier]

Anyone with a brain knows Super SFV needs to happen.

 

[BronsonLee]

Street Fighter 3. The pinnacle of Street Fighter.

Pinnacle of arse characters

Which do you prefer?

I already lost when Alex got put in the game so you're just kicking a dead body at this point

 

[Scotia]

Well, I guess not every Alex fan is bad.

I'll take that as a compliment

 

[mollipen]

Remy > Guile

 

[Baleoce]

The rumour doesn't mention anything about retail presence for Super. Even if some may assume that. That may be true, but it would also create its own set of problems with the business model Capcom have opted for.

Would they really go to retail with a Super edition and still only offer that consumer the original base roster?

 

[lucebuce12]

You shut your mouth, it gave us this phenomenally designed character:

You should, it's not like you'll get any for your character preference.

 

[Marvel]

...

 

[Pompadour]

Q better have those defense buffing taunts

Maybe if they tone down the boost. It's kind of ridiculous he could boost his health to twice as much as anyone else in the cast yet he was still bottom tier. It doesn't seem like a well designed mechanic in general.

 

[SargerusBR]

SAGAT THO

 

[Scotia]

As much as I love 3S Twelve is fucking ass

 

[SgtCobra]

Q's V-Trigger will be Total Destruction and cause his trenchcoat to explode, revealing his chiseled, thong-clad body.

"HUHHHH"

- Q

Let's do this

 

[Etrian Oddity]

E. Honda isn't in this, & I honestly wouldn't be surprised if he never makes it in (as I've said before, Honda's more iconic than popular). Though seeing as he's a World Warrior, he definitely has a chance at returning.

Honda would be mega redundant since Necalli essentially fills his niche.

Sean was great tho before they intentionally made him a joke character in 3S.

Is that Charlie's younger brother ;-)

 

[ChanMan]

Hopefully this will get me into SFV I had the game since launch and it never clicked with me.

 

[Q8D3vil]

Interesting that they are going with one last hurrah.
Im guessing they are going to add considerable amount of content (all dlc and stages ) and going to sell it for a good price.

 

[oti]

In.

 

[BadWolf]

I already lost when Alex got put in the game so you're just kicking a dead body at this point

I gots no problems with that.

Would they really go to retail with a Super edition and still only offer that consumer the original base roster?

They could offer just that consumer (who bought SSFV new) more characters.

Those with the free upgrade will still need to purchase characters like normal.

It'd probably be a physical version of the Deluxe Edition (which includes the S1 & S2 characters) with maybe the stages & costumes (at least the story costumes) included. Maybe even throw in the S3 Character Pass.

 

[BronsonLee]

Sean was incredible, my favorite character

3S can go burn in a fire

 

[Hippopuncher12]

Will probably finally buy the game when this comes out.

 

[tiebreaker]

Guess it would be the time to jump in for Sakura and C.Viper.

 

[Neoxon]

It wouldn't really be one last hurrah, more like a refresh. SFV still has another 3 years of DLC support.

 

[giancarlo123x]

Q for free? Fucking idiots, I'd pay 20 alone just for him!

 

[RedAssedApe]

please don't have sakura still be in a schoolgirl outfit...

 

[Shadic7700]

3S gave us Crazy Chili Dog so your opinion is invalid by the rule of cool

 

[Mupod]

Didn't they scream this would never happen?

They said they wouldn't do something like SSF4 or UMVC3, where they released a new version and you had to buy that or pay for a DLC upgrade to keep playing. They specifically meant that SFV updates won't separate the playerbase. If they call the update Super SFV then that doesn't really mean anything but I guess people will get confused and complain about it anyways.

 

[lucebuce12]

I don't know why people are assuming the CHARACTERS in season 3 are free.

The characters are part of season 3 and will need to be purchased with either FM or real money just like Season 1 and 2.

Q for free? Fucking idiots, I'd pay 20 alone just for him!

Don't worry, you'll still be able to do that.

please don't have sakura still be in a schoolgirl outfit...

[Neoxon]

Not free, the DLC characters would likely have to be earned/paid for like they are now. It's the modes & new mechanics that would be free.

 

[Professor Beef]

"It'll have a bunch of characters you've been asking for + some 3rd Strike nerds"

Yeah I'm rolling with fake.

 

[BronsonLee]

Q for free? Fucking idiots, I'd pay 20 alone just for him!

They should pay me 40 dollars to have to fight against that robo-perv

please don't have sakura still be in a schoolgirl outfit...

You know they're gonna. Either that or do a small redesign like with Ken

3S gave us Crazy Chili Dog so your opinion is invalid by the rule of cool

I HATE HOT DOGS

 

[Bedlam]

Haha oh well, my copy sits currently on Ebay. Too late I guess.

(if someone is interested and from Germany, I can provide the link )

 

[Shadow Ranger]

I'm down. But if Sakura's default outfit better not be a schoolgirl outfit. We've moved on from the 90s.Totally fine as an alt, however.

 

[Scotia]

You should, it's not like you'll get any for your character preference.

Coming from a FANG main?

 

[Eidan]

With an arcade mode, SFV has finally reached the standard of single player content reached by SFII over 25 years ago. Good job.
