IF it is character hints, there really is no way to make an educated guess as to who they'll be.
Btw, this game is confirmed to have less characters than previous titles. Unfortunate, but also expected with the new V-system.

Now that you mention it... this makes the most sense.

It's SFV not Capcom All Stars.
That and I am sick of Morrigan being every where if you are going to use Darkstalkers characters try someone else.

That one on the far right is probably...

Right has gotta be Ken. You can't have a Street Fighter without Ken, right?
I'm thinking only two more 'old' characters and the rest are new.

I don't think there is any chance that we will see SFEX character in SFV. Capcom don't own the rights.
However, they did not own the rights to strider but they ended up making a deal to put him in UMVC3.
Skullomania would please so many people and it would be awesome of them to add him.
@plasmawave: I'd love to see Sodom make it. People that played him in Alpha series know how awesome he is!!! He would be hype.

the streaks match none of the characters except Chun Li. And Birdie if you change your mind and decide the streaks match not his clothes but his hair.
Daughter of a rich family and involved in their business after finishing school so knowing Capcom she'll be wearing a school uniform.
Realistically wearing a suit or something would be more appropriate considering where the character would likely be on the timeline though.
Urien and Ken would be amazing.
What? He's in the top 20,25 of the lists everytime. And more so in Japan.
Also part of his recent dip in popularity is because of how bad he was ported to SF4. He was hyped up alot before SSF4.
But yea with SF5 having just a 16 player roster. Nobody is confirmed. Guy is a very unique character and will easily make it into the other iterations.

I do hope you're right. He is my second in SFIV.
Though I won't be devestated if he doesn't appear - there's plenty of other cool characters who don't get enough lime light to plug in.

I would love that.They might as well not release it then. No one wants to play a SF without Ken. Destined for failure.

Likely already mentioned but the streaks below the characters are the colors of their vism install or whatever its called.

I think there are three reasons:
1) It kind of makes sense to get through the returning cast first, just so people can find familiar ground.
2) Capcom gets to highlight how changed the returning members are.
3) New characters are often confusing, and it would be harder for players to get a feel for the game.
I think we can expect a newcomer at Evo, though.

Just hope Guile makes it in.
I would rather give that slot to something more interesting. Nash ist just too close to Guile for me.
If they really unveil two ST shotos next, that would a a huge disappointement.

Black is probably Akuma and red is for Ken.

Tifa would make more sense than Cloud.

I'm sure they're connected to characters, but since most of the revealed roster have colors I wouldn't expect, it's not much of a hint. I'm hoping we do get some new blood for the next reveals, though.
This!

Lol remember when we all thought the installs where elements. That was much cooler.

I actually could see that happening.

Me too. Boxer especially, since every SF game had a boxer.
EDIT: nvm forgot alpha lol. but alpha 3 got balrog i guess

That's correct. No actual anti-air Flash Kick, either, which is one of the cornerstones of Guile's playstyle. He's more of a rushdown character.

I was just joking. FF has their own fighting franchise in Dissidia. No need to piggy back off a dead Namco IP.
Come to think of it, his oil up move is basically a V-Trigger. His streak could be olive oil colored as well.
I know and you're right, but I would still like to see an entirely different type of character instead of Guile.

I just want ken and akuma in the game. I don't really care what they do after that. Nee characters, some third strike characters, alpha, whatever. Just add ken and akuma please

Yup. Sodom is one of my favorite characters from the Alphas. I used to be pretty good with him back in the day. I'm 100% in the hype zone if he is confirmed.
