Apart from the legendary Deadlycreampuff, he bringing sexy back to street fighter, everyone loves that guy....except lame-os and haters.

Played him a few times, he really is the only good Gouken online :P

Just thought I'd sound off on my thoughts in regard to the balance AE has.

For starters, I definitely agree that Yun is top tier, no doubt about that. That said, I can count the amount of people using Yun who have beaten me online on one hand. He is terrifying if you know what your doing but he is a complete joke to fight against otherwise. The key to beating him is to keep him out. As such, I can't really say he is OP. Very strong but not unbeatable is more like it.

As for characters that got nerfed, depends on the character and player, some characters were drastically affected by the nerfs they got ( ie Guile - though Doom can still do well with him imo ) but some Characters it didn't really much of a difference ( Honda got a damage nerf but as we saw at the Evo Qualifier, it didn't really effect Stev0 at all )

As for the characters that got buffed, some of them are drastically different to their Super counterparts ( remember when Makoto was bottom tier in Super? I had to remind myself that she'd gotten huge buffs in AE the first time I came up against her on Day 1 ) some have gotten better and others the buffs just weren't enough.

That said, I think AE has resulted in a more rounded and fun experience in general - There are still slow matches in the game but it doesn't feel as slow as Super for some reason. The top tiers are very strong but not unbeatable ( not to mention, I found the twins to be more fun to play than I expected ) which is what counts imo.

Just mt two cents.



How did I manage to post all that without talking about my main!? :pac:

Abbaesque played after Foo Fighters at oxegen one year.

Still didn't make them the Headliners.

yea what blag said, if you already started the download on steam you can continue it but you can't start the pre-load, people on the steam forums are saying you can still use an torrented iso and your steam cd key but i'm not sure of the legality/possible ramifications for your GFWL account, personally i'd wait the 27 hours + download time just to be sure but if you're feeling risqué...if they're smart they'll put the pre-load back up say 8 hours before release so you don't have to wait ages to download it after release...but this is steam so who knows.

btw liam add me or ill find you :P need some fun fights with no lag, sorry if that sounded like a threat, but it was. lol

http://wiki.shoryuken.com/Super_Street_Fighter_IV_AE All character's frame data except for Evil Ryu

Isn't it GFWL they probably run on the same servers as XboxLive.The thing is on Xbox all you have to worry about is the other persons connection where as on PC it's connection and computer and what settings they are play it on so a lot more variable. I 'd like to see how little the lag is on a good connection though.

Steam sale syndrome.
