Dan.
Whichever SF4 character makes it in
Viper.

Considering Hakan gains mobility and range during his focus attack when oiled(along with other things), they could easily wrap his mechanics within the V system. We won't see him though, will we?

Viper's flame/lightning attacks would look sooooo good in this engine *_*

Why are some articles saying that the guard meter is "new to the series"?
She's still such a KoF character though. If she makes it in, they need to redo her KO scream. Most obnoxious sound effect in SF4.

At first I was thinking adding a character with Focus would be lame. For one, I kinda wanna just leave all that is SF4 in the past. Two, The options to get out of trouble or blow through it are much more varied for a character with that ability compared to others. Focus on wake up to get out of a jump in, etc. But looking at the kind of damage they are going for in this compared to 4, maaaaybe that would even out just fine.
Going by Omega, most likely Sakura
That would make sense too, she is THE Alpha character.
What guard meter? All I seen is a stun meter ala 3s.

Might be referencing to Grey health
That'd be amazing. I hope Dan makes it back, but they make him somewhat serious. Have something happen between the years to cause him to not be a total fuckup. Not like SNK is worth lampooning anymore.

Oh god that'd be the best.
Viper can stay dead forever.

I'm hoping Abel if he makes it back.

I like both of these characters wise, but Viper and her burn kicks, yeah, she can go away forever with that tbh...I hope vortex in general is kinda gone and you always have to outwit your opponent with mix-up.

What's so terrible about her burn kicks?
Omnistalgic
Member
besides the fact she gets to spam them?
- The flame is so broad, you can't tell where she is landing at times, even when you are accurately reading your opponent's mix-ups.
- recovery and damage on them, especially before they got nerfed was ridiculous.
- brain-dead mix-up makes opponents of equal skill level weaker because there defense suffer.
I can go on if you'd like?

They can just fix all of this if they bring her back, or do you think that she isn't much if that were to fix the issue?. I thought she was a cool concept for a character in the SF universe, though I never played with her much at all.

Sounds like you're mainly talking about the airborne one. The grounded version is hated so much because they can be mashed and used as a reversal to beat low attacks. Unlike a DP it's safe on block so your pretty much where you were before having to guess whether she will continue doing reversals. Sure you can OS it, but the meager punishes you get won't stop her from continuing to do it. That's the other reason why people hate burn kick so much.
If she does come back though I doubt she will be able to use these moves the same way. The different wake up times will probably also prevent her from looping it over and over if she kept guessing correctly. Still I'm too bitter about the current version of her that I wouldn't want her back

I wasn't aware of her being such an issue to that extent. Does she place high in tournaments as of late (or ever)? Shenanigan characters usually cause a scene.

Juri and Abel from SF4, the rest no thanks. The SF4 characters are great designs mostly made incredibly frustrating to play against, and I don't trust Capcom to fix them this time around. Leave them out
I think people got frustrated seeing SFIV become more and more about mixups and 50/50's than zoning and space control. Viper was one of the biggest culprits, although she was used a lot less when they nerfed EX Seismo. It used to be completely invincible and the biggest Viper player was notorious for doing nothing but EX Seismo on wakeup because it was safe on block and completely invincible, so he never had to deal with wakeup pressure. They made the move vulnerable to throws in AE and Viper players became less successful.

That was so depressing because it was right after Daigo defeated Infiltration 10-0 in a FT10. Everybody was like "mah boy, he can't be stopped". Then got Viper'd. I remember reading some tweets or something about how their were Daigo fans in the audience who were in shock. They just stood still and had this look of disbelief in their face. I was pretty sad to to be honest
But anyways, back to SFV. I assume set play will be completely gone since almost nothing gives you hard knockdowns. But I wonder if certain specials will still give you time to do ambiguous jump ins? That seems to be the only way to keep "vortex" alive in SFV, but may be Capcom doesn't want that at all. And the only way to pressure is the old fashion way, walk or dash forward to get in your opponents face after a soft knockdown.
If I had to guess, it is probably viper since she can use it the most with potential. Combining it with her other tools like super jump canceling normal and seimos make her seem most likely.
El Fuerte, he will probably be the only returning SF4 character.
I agree. I couldn't care less about the other new characters from that series as they really aren't that interesting (except for Gouken, though he's another shoto).
Like I said in another thread, if Capcom's going to bring in new characters, they need to make fighters from places that they haven't tried from yet, such as Egypt, Canada, & Australia. It's great that we got a fighter from Turkey, & a fighter from South Korea, but they need to expand more on that front. Even Namco had done that with Tekken as of lately.
Counting the characters from SF 1 to SF IV (excluding the EX series because it isn't canon), we already have
14 characters from USA (Alex, Crimson Viper, Cody, Guile, Guy, Joe, Ken, M. Bison/Balrog (Boxer), Mike, Nash/Charlie, Poison, Rolento, Rufus, & Sodom),
13 from Japan (E. Honda, Geki, Gouken, Gouki/Akuma, Ibuki, Karin, Maki, Makoto, Oro, R. Mika, Retsu, Ryu, & Sakura),
4 from England (Birdie, Cammy, Dudley, & Eagle),
4 from Hong Kong (Dan, Fei Long, Yang, & Yun),
3 from Germany (Hugo, Juli, & Juni),
3 from China (Chun-Li, Gen, & Lee),
2 from France (Abel, & Remy),
2 from Thailand (Adon, & Sagat),
2 from Mexico (El Fuerte, & T. Hawk),
2 from Russia (Necro, & Zangief),
2 from Brazil (Blanka, & Sean),
1 from Jamaica (Dee Jay),
1 from India (Dhalsim),
1 from Kenya (Elena),
1 from Turkey (Hakan),
1 from South Korea (Juri),
1 from Spain (Balrog/Vega (Claw)), &
1 from Italy (Rose).

The mechanic he's citing though isn't new to the series. Although I thought this was only supposed to be possible through V meter use, and with just Ryu?
Is he just confusing "stun" with "guard" and "taking damage" with "blocking"?
Either way, he's wrong. If it's in, it's not new at all.
Best win animation right there. ;-)
Dan is Japanese and is from Japan, the Hong Kong was only for an Alpha 2 stage.
With your logic Birdie is from Italy because his Alpha 1 stage was Rome.
Not according to his bio in the Street Fighter World Warrior Encyclopedia:
Link.
Also, a profile:
Link.
Birdie was already from England back in Street Fighter 1, only reason he's in Rome in Alpha 1/Zero 1 is because that the game was basically a rushed title & shares the same stage with Rose (Canonically, the Alpha/Zero series started with 2).
Sure, whatever. Don't care enough to argue any further.
Nah, her v-trigger is more akin to rose's shadow super in the alpha series. Customs are just that, customs, that allow you to cancel normals and specials to creat custom combos.
We don't have to use that clip to indict Viper.That was so depressing because it was right after Daigo defeated Infiltration 10-0 in a FT10. Everybody was like "mah boy, he can't be stopped".

That was Kyabetsu, one-time SBO SF4 winner. He has Daigo's number for some reason. He might body some big name then get unceremoniously random-ed later haha.

needs 2 extra inches
I'm in the same boat. Too bad they already stated there will only be 4 new characters. [Citation Needed]
Capcom hasn't said anything about how many new characters there will be. All we have is rumors, most of which have been right so far. Those rumors also originated around release of the first gameplay, though, and who knows how development has changed.

Sure, that's why you responded at all, lol.
Though I agree with your point...
To be fair, a lot of the U.S. characters came from Final Fight, a game that took place in one particular city in the U.S. So, that kinda artificially boosts the American representation. Additionally, a number of the American characters are "remakes" of previous characters. Mike > Mike Bison, Joe > Cody, Guile > Charlie. So that further pads the numbers.
BTW, Rolento is from East Germany, though he shows up in America at various points in the timeline.
