Keep practicing.

Well looks like those dlc promises were just to guarantee strong sales and one up blazblue (who delivered on their [albeit pricey] dlc)
|
They never promised AE DLC. Super 4 sold on the strength of it being a great game.
|
A really good interview with Ono.
|
Ono can be a troll but he's a good guy with good ideas toward game design.

Video pulled. Notes:
- Will be DLC. - Reiterates Yun, Yang, E.Ryu, and Oni as new characters. - Players who do not purchase AE can still play against those who do. This means the balance update may be free but characters and replay enhancements will not. - Either way expect a major mandatory download. - Can "choose" which version (SSF4 or AE) to play - so there may be an option to downgrade from main menu. - Replay options pretty much address everything. - - Search function. - - Follow function, like a video twitter you automatically download a player's newest replay. - - File sharing, send replays to friends. - - Elite Channel, view replays of anyone above 3000pp. Not dated, but I'm thinking mid-Summer. |
It looks more and more likely those 4 are the only new characters. Wish there was at least one character to suit my tastes.
I like the sound of enhancements to the replay channel. |

I'd buy a new disc if they added a few more characters.
GOnna be so many Yuns online when this is out. I'm going for Yang. |
I foresee Yun getting nerfed when this goes global. No way they're letting him slide.

NSFW: show |
damn

They're pretty crazy. Khuntry's totally winning TPWW SF Tourny 3.
|
Anyone that wants to see the trailer again:

Nice of consoletech.net to put their logo over top of the text explaining all the features.
|
Same vid, no water marks. And some gameplay (presumably console):
NSFW: show 15$ DLC and a disc release. This is the final iteration of Street Fighter 4 before Capcom moves on. Thanks, Capcom! http://media.eventhubs.com/images/20...2_ssf4ae01.jpg |
3DS will get AE eventually.
|
Unlike the original Super, it's coming to PC. Probably grab that version on Steam.
Makes sense, since the arcade just runs Windows. |
Now, will this be like GTA DLC and the DLC disc where you can only play online with people that have the same format as you or will a AE disc player be able to play with an AE DLC user?
|
Everybody will be able to play together - the AE rebalance is free. What the buyers get are new replay features and the four new characters. Whether you have DLC or disc you can play against people with the update.
|
Fucking fuck, I was really hoping for a few new characters. Variations on ryu and akuma, and yun and yang (who are pretty similar themselves) Does not make me all that excited.
I'm actually anticipating the improvements to Makoto, more than the new characters. And I doubt that they are hiding any characters, because if there were any more characters, they would advertise them, not keep it a secret. |
God damn it, I want Alex and Karin.
|
No, just Karin.
|
Shut up, Alex is the man you wanker.
|
I'm sorry.
|
Been watching videos of Makoto and she's fucking brutal. Her lifebar is also up to 1000 now, so it's in line with the average character, and her output has been beefed up too. I've been able to get wins here and there, the way she is now. Got a feeling Funky and his bro are going to hate me using her come AE's release.
Yun and Yang look like they take a lot of damage, and don't have very high damage output at the same time. Outside of chun-li, I don't really use a lot of characters like that, so I dunno if they'll join any of my regulars. |
Yun is for cowards.
|
Never liked either of them. Sounds like abel is getting nerfed pretty hard. His second ultra in particular is taking some hits, which in all honesty, is fair, because that was the cheapest ultra in the whole game. Might go back to using his first, as it is fairly easy to combo into.
|
Gonna use E.Ryu because I need a new shoto.
|
E.Ryu just seems like ryu with akuma's teleport. Oni Akuma definitely feels more like a new character, though he does share similarities with Gouken.
|
E.Ryu is a shoto, all shotos are Ryu with a few different moves and properties. I've played Ken for ages, back when he really was a Ryu clone with a head sprite swap. The similarities don't begin to bother me. In fact I'm perfectly okay with SF4's shoto friendly roster. They all play differently enough to allow tactics to form. And E.Ryu has enough differences for me to pick him without thinking, "Oh well I should have been playing Ryu all along."
And thematically speaking, I dig the power trip. Classic Ryu is gay. |
Yeah, wasn't saying you should pick regular ryu. Just commenting on their similarities. I'll probably use him instead of ryu as well for the same "power trip" reasons. Guy just looks badass.
Are they going to be properly balanced for online play? I remember no one picking Sagat or Seth during Vanilla, cause it was considered a dick move. Hope it is not the same for these guys. |
Honestly I am happy that AE is the last of the updates for SF 4. This means ideas for SF 5 are probably going to start getting thrown around soon. I expect we won't hear anything til after SFxT's release, but you know it is coming. No way do they not follow up on the success of all this.
|
Actually Yun and Fei are the strongest by most accounts. E.Ryu and Oni haven't been out long enough for a final verdict. Other than that the game is still massively balanced. So I guess Yun and Fei are the new 'dick move' choices.
You can bet SF5 is coming sooner than 8/9 years, but it's behind a long assembly line. |
Needs Sean dammit.
I'd actually get over my hate of generic Tekken characters if he was in SFxT. |
How would Sean do that?
