Ok Kalyx I have two questions. What would be a good character for me to get into using? I'm experimenting with them all, but I'll lay out my play style so hopefully you can give me some direction. Is Fei Long unlockable in this? He's listed in the credits so I figure maybe he would be a good choice if he's in it.
Ok this should be an indicator of my current level of play. The game finally came in the Wednesday night and I gave it a play through with Zangief. On easiest mode it took me 2 or 3 times to beat Abel to get to the boss and another 4-5 times to beat Seth. Haven't had a chance to play since then so I haven't got a lock on anyone yet. I love Vega as a character but I hate charge moves (never have been able to use them consistantly or with any kind of success) and I likely need someone with good defense right now so that kind of rules him out. Zangief's moves mostly require the full stick rotation which most times ends up with me jumping and getting juggled straight to a big loss of energy. I eventually gave up on moves with Zangief and just started using strikes, which barely got me by Chung Li ![]() |

Quote:
- Charge characters are more complicated than motions. But the idea is the charge characters have better standard attacks than motion characters. Do Vega's standing Roundhouse(Fierce Kick) and you'll see it's actually a free anti-air attack. His Fierce Punch also has great range and his backflips (PPP, KKK) dodge everything. - BUT as far as charge moves go, and even 360 motions, you must learn buffering. Buffering commands is inputing the motion of a command during other actions. You need to charge back or down with Vega, right? I'm betting you catch yourself crouching or walking backward during a fight, limiting your movement while you ready a move. It doesn't have to be like this. When Vega is jumping (forward or backward) or doing an attack, why not hold back or down while it happens? When the attack is over the charge is done and you just hit forward/up+button and it will seen like you didn't have to limit your movement for a charge. When holding down for his leap attacks, notice his Sweep slides, use it to move forward while charging down. OR just arbitrarily press fierce punch a few times to throw off your opponent while you ready a leap attack. The key for charge characters is to stay busy while charging. All this requires you getting used to buffring commands. With 'Gief, you can do a 360 spin while executing certain attacks (namely the glowing hand). |

Some new info on SSFIV
Quote:
On the subject of new characters, I read an article that said Juri was going to be an ice skater at one point, then they considered making her an old woman and even a "chubby girl" until they eventually settled on what we have now. Also, they increased her bust size from 73cm/30 inches to 83cm/33 inches. They want her to come across as "bad and erotic". |

We had a replay channel before as a download but it was useless. It would be cool if we could save a replay of any fight we had and send the replay to friends.
That way, if we had another tourny, we could just show the actual fight rather than just typing the details. With 2 on 2, do you think we could have online tag matches? A tag tourny would be cool. |

I doubt there will be tag, doesn't fit the engine. Most likely we're looking at team elimination, which is fine by me.

I think the points are pretty clear. We have a Spectator Mode, I hope this isn't what they meant by having a lobby. A Replay Theater. What appears to be a Survival Mode against live players. And Bonus Stages.

Yeah but I thought maybe there is some smaller details in the text like if we can save a reply of any match or something.
At 1:00 the video shows "Channel Select". What is it? It has 10 animated panels. |

Maybe that's the replay feature. Not too sure, though.

I thought that at first but they are all animated from weird angles. The one on the bottom left is a close up of stars, like a rating system. Maybe it's just a movie player like in SFIV to view trailers and the intro.

I guess the channel thing is for replays. I think "editing" will be altering the camera angle and stuff. |

Is this still set for $40 or Capcom changed the price ?

Yeah, still $40 as far as I know. Not sure how much it will be for those of us in the UK though.

Good, hopefully they don't do like what Bungie did to Halo ODST and change it from $40 to $60 before it got released.

If you meant Super SFIV then yeah that was their goal and then they just kept adding stuff and tweaks. Wouldn't be completely surprised if Capcom goes to $60 for this game based on pricing of DLC in their other games. |

The time and energy used to announce an announcement couldnt be used to actually announce what they are announcing the announcement of. Everyones announcing anouncements now. Capcom with SSFIV, R* with RDR and Nintendo announcing they'll annnounce info about Zelda at E3.
As for Rolento, would it be a good thing or a bad thing if it is him? If it is him and that's his stage, maybe it also means character specific stages are back. |

I'd like Rolento, but Alpha has enough love. Where's 3rd Strike representation?

I never played 3rd Strike and if I did, I don't remember. Maybe it is a 3rd Strike character. Looking at the 3rd Strike wikipedia to see if I know any of the characters (I've heard of most of them, it turns out.) and I see two characters have NYC stages. Sean and Alex. Could be one of them.
It's still likely Rolento, though. |

Eagle was redone for Capcom vs SNK 2. I wanna see more shit like that (first time reappearances).
Also, Joe from SF1 was supposed to be the criminal in Alpha 3, but they changed it to Cody from Final Fight at the last minute. Gay. |

3 characters revealed through Japanese magazine
SPOILER: show I've no idea if any of these guys are who the NYC Chun-Li image was going to reveal or not. At least one of them was very obvious given they appeared in a SFIV character intro. |

So only two more characters left to reveal, and one is most likely a brand new character. Yeah, it looks like capcom hates sf 3 for some reason.

I've read somewhere that Capcom said "at least 8" so there could maybe be more. Although Capcom said "around about 8" and then changed it to "at least 8" so I don't if Capcom is changing that or it's just whoever is reporting it.
Was SF3 popular? If it wasn't as popular as most SF games, that could be why they aren't including SF3 characters. |

Worth noting that so far that leaked list posted a couple pages back has been dead on. So don't be so sure about the lack of SF3 love.
