It would be pretty good if Gief escaped this "dumbing down" Capcom are trying to put into this game.

wat

 

[Pompadour]

Come on, no one seriously believes the roster is decided by Capcom trying to "beat the leaks"...right?

If that were true SFV would feature no newcomers but Necalli as they were the first characters leaked.

Who cares about Geif what about the bear walking on 2 feet in the background!!

 

[jon bones]

Shoryuken peeps are saying Zangief grabs are 360s.

praise jesus

 

[ElFly]

His rising-elbow-into-air-spd trick from the trailer reminds me of Alex's crounching-fierce-into-air-knee-grab anti air, although Zangief's seems trickier.

 

[RM8]

Man, the not-Ultras are such a downgrade from the SFIV Ultras. It's one of the few things I'm not loving about the game.

Make them short, I saw. I grew tired watching them after a few months.

 

[PadWarrior]

Did he keep his 360 motions?

If they're super arts then they need to be short and simple so they don't eat timers.

 

[qcf x2]

Thank goodness for that. Ultras felt, both aesthetically and mechanically, like Capcom "just figured this 3D shit out and oh shit we can swing the camera around hell yea let's zoom, pan and throw filters on this motherfucker." And suddenly a cutscene-based fighter was born.

 

[Skilletor]

They're supers, and they should be short and sweet. Ultras were always mechanically stupid and way too long.

 

[Gr1mLock]

Did he keep his 360 motions?

Yup.

 

[PadWarrior]

Yup.

Oh nice. Well that ends that rumor of them being removed
I still won't be able to do his critical art if it requires the motion twice buts that ok

 

[Moaradin]

They intentionally made them quick. I'm glad we don't have 10 second animations in this game.

 

[Stone Ocean]

It wasn't a "rumour", it came straight from the devs and it shows as Birdie and Mika lost their 360 motions. They just changed their minds since I doubt they could make Gief work without fast grabs, that's all.

 

[ElFly]

Did he keep his 360 motions?

Some people are saying yes, cautious optimism until official confirmation.

Every time I asked for a link to an official statement I would never get one. Where is this interview with the devs?

Ah I see

 

[Card Boy]

My only disappointment with this game so far is getting rid of Vegas charges and making some of the characters like Ryu, Chun Li, Gief etc still look the same.

 

[pizzacat]

Can't wait till capcom reacts to the 360s like "it's just a bug, he is now a charge character"

 

[Stone Ocean]

I'm not gonna dig through a billion interviews just to prove a point lol

 

[Teknopathetic]

"Can't wait till capcom reacts to the 360s like "it's just a bug, he is now a charge character""


I want charge command grabs.

 

[RM8]

I don't mind Supers being shorter, that's good - but they've been all pretty bland. Zangief and my future main Karin having the worst

Lol well don't expect me to believe it not being a rumor then

Wat

Her one inch palm into ojou laugh is fucking awesome

 

[Gren]

The most credible source I saw suggesting no 360s was this article by an SRK correspondant. But in retrospect, it looks like it may have been just an observation/assumption rather than relaying a statement.

Once again, I hope Capcom finally provides the actual, closer-to-OG-Hooligan Combo notation for the SPD, in order to make it easier on those that are less familiar with SF.

Maybe when Alex is introduced they will normalize all his inputs to a single style.

SRSLY, that bro had quarter circle, half circle, both charges, 360s, and dragon punches.

Pick one style and stick to it!

I don't know I kind of liked him that way. Made him a unique grappler type to me anyway

I liked the idea of Alex but the startup on the 360 super killed him for me.

 

[jon bones]

Ultras were the worst - activated by Revenge and the animations took forever.

woof

that was dope

though i remember not using his dp often, or his qcf+k ddt for that matter... he could lose those and i wouldn't miss em

DDT looked cool but was totally useless. He needs the DP though and I want the cr. F(1hit) > DP back especially in a game that doesn't have freaking parries in it.

 

[depths20XX]

360's are fine if you can shortcut them like you could in SFIV. I've always just hated 720's, get that shit out.

 

[notworksafe]

Wonder if the SPD shortcut still works. I remember reading that the SRK one is still in but I don't use that one.

 

[stargateheaven]

oh finally maybe people will start saying his name right lol

I love all of you, guys.

 

[SatelliteOfLove]

Who cares about Geif what about the bear walking on 2 feet in the background!!

He's mad cuz he was supposed to fight Gief instead!

I love all of you, guys.

Seriously, glad to see more wisdom about that.

 

[Lulubop]

I don't mind Supers being shorter, that's good - but they've been all pretty bland. Zangief and my future main Karin having the worst

Karin's is pretty great, but yea Gief's needs some work. Show the impact of him trying to put his opponent through the ground better or some shit.

 

[direct_quote]

Zangiefs ex moves look better the his CA.
But they made ex moves longer though..

 

[Lulubop]

Gief's running grab is now a Kinnikudriver

 

[impact]

SA2 and SA3 all the way

 

[KidA Seven]

It stinks.

Well you're wrong. It's subtle, but awesome. It channels ancient greek-roman clothing for athletics. The Illuminati has supposedly been there since the beginning of human civilization according to the lore so his channeling of an ancient society fits. The guy also looks like a greek sculpture which also fits into his god complex.

You think you're going to fight this business dude? Wrong. You just got yourself into some ancient evil shit who is into an ancient form of fighting like it's a ritual.

 

[Clawww]

It stinks.

dont you love watching men in underwear tho Kappa

 

[NEO0MJ]

I want charge command grabs.

I was surprised when Hanzo from Yatagarasu had a charge standing command grab super. I don't think I ever anything like that in a game before.

You're wrong too, it's dumb. See how easy it is to do that?

Chrome Dome(?) from the TMNT fighting game had a charge command grab too.

I want charge command grabs.

me too, Jubei was a bad ass in Fatal Fury Special, and he had charge command grabs. i want the SF team to rip off his movelist.

 

[kevm3]

The only thing I don't like about SFV so far is the music. The characters look way better than 4.

 

[thelastword]

Man, so glad Gief is back (tears of joy)......Funny that at the time of the reveal that I had just beaten a very salty Blanka twice...too bad for him Laura was revealed and not the balling beast....I guess Karma kinda striked there...so salty was this guy.

 

[TheOGB]

Make the DDT his V-Skill, hop over fireballs

 

[PadWarrior]

Snake Eyez is the guy who plays Gief on a pad right? How does he pull of those double 360 motions for the supers and ultras?
