[DR2K]

Let's hope they don't botch it like they did Makoto :^/

They sort of botched all the new characters to some extent, all need a little tweaking and rebalancing.

 

[Jirotrom]

I'd be happy to buy DLC characters for the PC version of SSFIV...

me too!

 

[Kintaro]

More characters? Damn. Tweak what you have Capcom, sheesh.

 

[DR2K]

More characters? Damn. Tweak what you have Capcom, sheesh.

SSFIV is pretty damn balanced though. It's not like there's some huge gaping balance issues. It's usually the new characters they bring in that are nerfed to high hell.

 

[BitchTits]

What? Is this some kind of witty attempt to say SF4 Gen sucks? Gen is awesome in SF4.

SF4 Gen is awesome. SSF4 Gen.... takes some getting used to :/

 

[TheOGB]

The correct answer is:

$15 for new characters, $10 for new costumes, $20 for both. Sign me up.

If more than two get in, I think it'll at least be the following:
R. Mika
Rolento
Elena
Alex and/or Hugo

 

[JEKKI]

I want to see some new characters. Ryu's cousin or something. Anybody!

there will be one!! I know who it is!!

Spoiler

Shinnosuke

!

 

["God's Beard!"]

Q and Grass Stage plz.

And snow stage and windy beach stage por favor.

Singular DLC expansion pack that's also sold on disc standalone: good ass job

Almost guaranteed.

1200-1600msp DLC patch

29.99 Platinum Hits rebranding ala LPC and DMC3SE

 

[Kintaro]

The bolded is what needs to be tweaked. Also, new stages, music, etc. Online request in any mode, a real tutorial mode and a ranking battle league for online.

 

[ElFly]

R Mika design is atrocius. If it's another Alpha girl, it will be Karin.

I am guessing Alex, Elena, Yun and Yang as clones/costumes of each other, and Rolento, Karin and Charlie. Or maybe Sodom instead of Charlie.

 

[Finaika]

Am I the only one who wants Maki in this?

 

[sixteen-bit]

angelfire still exists?

 

[Imm0rt4l]

angelfire still exists?

news to me. I know geocities died a couple of months ago.

 

[akilshohen]

If they added in the Single player modes from vanilla and a few stages I'd be fine, along with online request. Why can't I practice until an opponent comes along?

Characters probably will be Rolento, Elena, Mika (pretty definite) and the others are anyone's guess.

I don't see why they don't think to add Yun and Yang, probably the easiest way to get away with a palette swap. :lol

 

[~Devil Trigger~]

Am I the only one who wants Maki in this?

 

[Nemesis121]

2 from this list would be refreshing.

 

[CPS2]

URIEN IN A SUIT

alt: URIEN IN A DIFFERENT SUIT

alt 2: URIEN NOT IN A SUIT

 

[riceandbeans]

That would be pretty badass if they had a Mai crossover.

 

[The Take Out Bandit]

That would be pretty badass if they had a Mai crossover.

Nah, I don't want to see Mai with hideous Crapcom skin disease textures. Let them continue ruining their own shit thanks.

 

[The Abominable Snowman]

What? Is this some kind of witty attempt to say SF4 Gen sucks? Gen is awesome in SF4.

Yes. he was awesome in SF4

Why they took him out in SSF4 I will never know

 

[Barkley's Justice]

there aint gonna be no 6 *or* 7 characters...i'm gonna say 3 AT MOST

 

[El Sloth]

Nah, I don't want to see Mai with hideous Crapcom skin disease textures. Let them continue ruining their own shit thanks.

Your words sadden me as a fellow Tager player. So much hate Bandit, so much...

 

[7Th]

I only care about 2 characters:

Yes, please!

 

[The Take Out Bandit]

Your words sadden me as a fellow Tager player. So much hate Bandit, so much...

Don't get me started on the rest of the BB cast. There's a reason I use Tager and it's not because I super like his character, he's just the least offensive of the lot. :lol

Hopefully that Van Halen dude isn't shit and I'll have a second character I can use. So tired of getting counter picked.

Fortunately this is forcing me to increase me Tager skills. When all you have is a Tager, all your problems start to look like fuckin' magnets!

 

[KTallguy]

I would rather have new characters than SF EX series... sorry guys, EX sucks ass.
Any characters from Alpha or SF3 would be nice too!

Fuck Remy and Alex such horrible character designs shouldn't exist.

What's wrong with Remy and Alex? Remy is kind of a goth character, and Alex is a classic soldier/wrestler... I don't see what makes Rolento or Sodom better, they're all cool archetypes I guess.

 

[Solune]

Fuck Remy and Alex such horrible character designs shouldn't exist.
Elena, Necro, and Q for 3S.
Haggar, Rolento, and Sodom from Alpha.

 

[The Take Out Bandit]

Fuck Remy and Alex such horrible character designs shouldn't exist.

Cut out your heathen tongue and offer it up to Xenu for forgiveness! >:|

 

[The Hermit]

3rd strike Makoto would be cool...

Seriosuly though, i remember about that fake Urien shop and being pretty excited... he would be awesome!

 

[gutter_trash]

Time to throw a dance party?

Elena is a safe bet
-Ono wanted her in
-Africa eclipse state was CLEARLY designed for her

 

[fudgey_lumpkins]

Fix Guile's upside-down kick.

:lol

The BB cast is just typical anime designs, so I just ignore them for the most part. Makoto(Squirrel Girl) though...that's some real shit right there. Robot girl(s?) make me SMH too. You should try Arakune as a second character if the designs really bother you that much. I think he has the least offensive design of the cast, I mean he's just a blob really.

Why the hate on the Street Fighter IV style though? What about it exactly bothers you so much?

 

[Hours Left]

As for "new" characters? D.D. from Capcom Fighting All-Stars and Hakan's wife would be awesome.

Make it so, Capcom. Make it so.

 

[The Take Out Bandit]

:lol

Typical modern anime design. There was a time when anime wasn't so vile. Black Lagoon hearkens back to those glory days.

Visually uninspired, even accounting for the history of visual 3D experimentation in video games. Not saying SF should look like anime, but modern Naruto games have a more awe inspiring visual style than this.

I'd like something that looks more like a 3D representation of Capcom's awesome concept art. Not hideous action figures.

Really, it's purely aesthetic; but every other SF game has captured my imagination with it's visual splendor. This one just makes me want to never stop vomitting, for reasons exactly the opposite of BlazBlue character designs. :lol

Sorry to go OT, shutting up now. If you want to explore further please PM so I don't piss even more folks off. :X

 

[hxa155]

Alex, Rolento and Yun are all that I want.

 

[Haeleos]

I would pay for new stages and new costumes before I paid for new characters. The current cast is bloated and would do well for another tuning as apposed to making another addition of badly balanced characters.

Who's to say they won't release a balance patch for the game you own when they also release the new characters?

Wow. I gotta ask this: what was the last fighter you actually liked?

I understand your hate on the SF4 style, but I can live with a crappy game if the gameplay and balance are good, and SF4 has good (not great) gameplay and great balance.

Count me in on the Sodom and Birdie wanttrain though. Those two would complete (I count Charlie and Guile as similar enough) the A2 cast, which is the best SF cast ever.

I rather enjoy the BB game engine. It continues the logical evolution of 2D fighting IMO, whereas SF4 feels like a gigantic step backward in terms of game play from SF3.

Before BB, it was VF4e.

I've dabbled with Soul Calibur, but I really don't care for Namco's training wheels 3D fighters. SEGA FO' LIFE!

Really hope KoF13 online ain't shit. That is more my speed and I love the cast of characters and visuals. Also eagerly anticipating SF3 Online. <3

The way I see it, they tried to capture the visual feel of Street Fighter 2's exaggerated and muscular design mixed with a bit of a cel-shading/painting feel with the textures. The visuals are part of it's throwback charm.

But hey, it works for some, and it doesn't for others. Only beefs I have with SFIV's visuals are the skin textures, some of the muscle proportions, and a few characters that look pretty ugly, mainly Rose and Ken.

Have you looked at Battle Fantasia? You might like that. Real unique art style and gameplay is mix of SF/GG.

I like some things about BB, questionable balance, poor matchmaking code (in CS)+ unnecessary complication keeps me from wanting to play it.

I'd say all of the skin textures are fail. Fei Long looks like he's made of wood, like Pinocchio. Actually Pinocchio looked less wooden, unless you count that creepy live action one. NIGHTMARES!

Rose just looks like Jay Leno in drag. :lol

 

[Nemesis_]

If it's Ingrid, I will die.

 

[TheFLYINGManga_Ka]

Ugh, I'm starting to get sick of rumors. I felt like I wasted years of my life waiting for SFIV and when the rumor for the 10 new characters for Super SFIV started.

But the sick thing is, I'm excited about this new rumor! :lol

I hate myself for being such a Street Fighter fanboy.

 

[Hours Left]

Word to all the people hoping they'll fix Rose's face on her model, I mention this every time a new iteration of SFIV come out. Rose is supposed to have mysterious and very feminine features going by every piece of official artwork and sprite released of her and that's been totally lost.

 

[The Take Out Bandit]

Am I the only one who wants Maki in this?

Maki and Eagle.

Tonfa party!

 

[KidA Seven]

Q
Yang
Urien
Rolento
Elena
New character with a slim trench or blazer (Cowboy bebop Spike style).

Bring back some old stages. The new ones suck ass.

 

[ChronicleX]

I stopped caring about Variations of SFIV the moment MVC3 got confirmed. However adding Skullomania / Garuda would get me to change my mind.

 

[C-Jo]

Sean and Q.

I'm hard to please.

 

[Dr. Kitty Muffins]

SF4 needs an Aussie. I can't believe the series has went this long without a Crocodile Dundee rip-off.

SF has always been about racial/cultural stereotypes, right?

 

[zlatko]

Rolento joining the cast will make SSF4's mission comprete!

Evo 2011 Rolento vs Ryu (Ryu will be Daigo)
