No, unless the new Killer Instinct does? (No X-Bone so haven't played it yet).
It's pretty close. The only characters that share stages atm are Jago, Shadow Jago, and Omen, and for the latter two, it's at least an alternate version with a heavily remixed theme.
No
KI has 1 character per stage. Omen and shadow jago share a stage + training stage.

So this is the Ken Bogard rumor for everyone's convenience:
- Time / Weather effects in stages
- Release date : 2016, before the end of the fiscal year.
- Unreal Engine 4
- The new mechanic is named V-Trigger : You can change your stance.
- 16 characters
- No Super Street Fighter 2X + EX (Updates kinda like League of Legends / Killer Instinct)
- The story mode will be way much better, they know they f***** up with sf4.
- The PC version is here mostly because they want to bring the game to Latin America, South Asia, Africa...
16 characters at launch is basically confirmed at this point, and possibly get hype for a good story mode as well?

That's exactly what they said.

As in "Heathcliff"
They haven't done that since RE6.

I want to hear what single player content the game will have and what they are going to do to try and introduce the game and make it accessible for a new generation of players.
I've never really played Street Fighter, would really like to but find it quite daunting and not especially fun any time I do try to play.
They need to introduce interesting single player content and unique and engaging ways for new players to learn the gameplay mechanics other than a bog standard training mode.

Poll rankings not being followed?
*bites nails*
I need my Juri though and she was the highest ranked SF4 rep. I'm gonna be pretty disheartened if we somehow get Rufus or someone else low ranked instead of her.

Birdie shows that they aren't following it entirely since he was in the bottom 10 characters in the history of the series.

Juri is a dumb character, but I could see her getting in this game. Hopefully she will be the only SF4 rep in this game...
From what I heard, Karin is in the same situation that Strider Hiryu was in.

I agree. Juri is a stupid character aesthetically but not mechanically. If we need an SF4 rep, one of my top picks would be her.
Which has no basis in fact since everything he appears in has separate copyright information, while that doesn't apply to any games in which she shows up.

not having specific character stages is kind of a bummer. hopefully they make them more memorable this time around. there weren't any iconic stages in sf4 that stood out to me.
Jawmuncher
Member
Shame they had to make him even more disliked now by making him another "fat guy" character. Hopefully it's actually story related in that he let himself go after the alpha tournaments.
Gonna have to disagree on that first part, but if she was the only SF4 rep to come back I wouldn't have issue with that.

China and London in SFV are impressive, I'm sure we are in good hands.
Get with the times dude. You get incomplete on desc games and have to download the rest of it in day patches is the new trend.

Yeah but most people chose not to believe them and instead make snarky posts about waiting for 'Super Ultra Turbo Edition'.
This is the one type of game I would happily buy a season pass for. I mean , I did it for KI so why not SF ?
It's actually pretty cool to get a new character to play around with every month or 2 , who knows the exact specifics of what SFV will have but I can imagine many similarities.
Launches with 16 playable characters, perhaps a hidden character and a boss , then maybe 3 months go by and 2 new characters are available , then 3 more more months and 2 more pop up and finally after 9 months - maybe the hidden character and boss get balanced into the main game and after a year goes by maybe a big season finale ? 4 characters ?
Either way, I'm down.

This sounds unnecessarily expensive as each future new character will need own stage.

Indeed. That also being an example of a game where Strider has separate copyright information, yet Karin doesn't.She was in Namco x Capcom, so I'm inclined to agree.
I'd love to have her back, but I'm keeping my expectations very low. Knowing Capcom, I'd even expect someone like Necro to have better chances.

If they would just let me select the roster, I guarantee satisfaction.
I still don't believe them. I believe there will be more disc releases for those behind the curve. Putting out disc based collections is great for those who suffer for internet caps.
Which is fine. It's not a big deal if there are. But there are some market realities at work here that say that there will be more retail versions. It's also a smart move.

Yes, they're lying. That's it.
Juri is the only representative for Korea. They arent leaving her out.
Expect a slight redesign though.

It wouldn't even be lying, the quote
"This is the only disc you're ever going to need to own to get all of the content in the game"
Does not say will be the only disc ever.

I so hope the one disc thing is true. I really do, but in the end, I might just buy this digitally anyway.
No one said there wont be such a thing, you just wont have to rebuy a new disc for the new update if you already have the base SFV.

would it really. don't all of KI's characters have specific stages when they launch?

They didn't mention that the game won't character exclusive music.

Exactly. The way they worded it it's basically a confirmation there will be Gold or Complete editions later on. But you don't need them, you can get every further upgrade as DLC.
Same as it has been since SSF4 (=> AE => Ultra).

Boo. Booooooooooooo.
I wouldn't expect a new stage for every DLC character that will inevitably come, but each character in the base game having their own stage doesn't seem like a big ask.
To me, fighting game characters have always been as much defined by their background stages and their theme tunes as their appearances or fighting styles. It's part of the reason I love the genre and why they're probably going to be ingrained in my memory until I die.
