    Not really bothered with all the recycled content from SFxT - Kind of stoked they'e actually adding all the chars made for SFxT into SF4 ( I thought they'd be adding at most 2. ) As for this ' Never seen in SF before ' Hagger seems like the most obvious choice BUT if you discount the PSP only Alpha 3 Max, it could also be Ingrid ( Don't know, just throwing it out there. )

    As for the SFxT stages to be ported, Mad Gear Hideout is a no-brainer. Training Stage, Maishma Estate, Antarica and Pandora's Box can be ruled out owing to either being related to Tekken or Pandora.

    No, I wonder what it will be called, won't have to wait long to find out.

    I have no problem whatsoever with porting the SFxTK characters. It's no different in principle from dumping all the SFIV characters in SFxTK, and it means that we'll be getting singular balanced gameplay from them. I agree that Hagger would be the most sensible choice, as they already have a character model for him in SFxTK, and a fleshed out movepool from Marvel. I do worry that he might be a bit of Gief clone though.

    On another very positive note, this also means that Hugo's theme and Elena's theme from 3rd Strike and two more themes from Final Fight will be getting the SFIV treatment from Fukusawa. I absolutely LOVED what he did with Mad Gear Hideout, so I can't wait to see which tracks he gives to Poison and Rolento, and what he does with them

    Gief copied his moves from Haggar, fact. :p

    Do we really need two spinning lariats though? Just sayin.

    Can't wait for the mainstream media to get onto this story. Oh evil capcom, releasing all this stuff from SFxT on a new SF disc! How evil they are. As all the TOs all over the world say THANK YOU. lol


  • Moderators Posts: 5,599 ✭✭✭Azza


    Yeah head over to IGN to see the whining in the comments section of the news story about the new version of SF 4.

    No thanks, if I want to feel depressed we can just do a few rounds of Guile v Bison :D


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 15,257 Mod ✭✭✭✭FutureGuy


    My guess for the title.

    "Street Fighter 4 Final" with Haggar as the mystery character.

    Ono has shot down Asura as the new character on twitter.


  • Moderators Posts: 5,599 ✭✭✭Azza


    I hope its a new character and not something stupid like Megaman.

    Agreed. I would hope it's not a character who's completely foreign to the franchise. If they are going to take someone else from Final Fight, I would hope it's Haggar, or even Eddie E., rather than another Mad Gear member - the remaining ones aren't very appealing.

    Well their statement that it's a character "new to Street Fighter" would indicate that it's not a new character nor is it Megaman.

    Chun-Li's dad. Or Elisa. :P

    Is not quite so clear cut. They stated in the same announcement video that the character was going to be "brand new", of course they could of misspoke but brand new would indicate to me a never seen before character.

    Was looking at those change videos- Am I correct in seeing Deejay has an AA that causes a juggle state? Looks v useful- although a weak AA game was not one of Deejay's problems :) Deejay could do a lot of damage to a bad jump in without looking to meter.

    U1 buff is good. It'll give him some serious fireball war dominance and allow him a full screen strength different to Guile's.

    Chun looks mad fun now, people will have to try DP hazanshus instead of focusing all over the place.

    I like how Cammy looks nerfed but might even have tkcs back. Cammy players might still be able to play as always and I might not have to go "OH****OH****OH****" every time she lands a jab.

    lol Nonsense.

    You honestly don't think Cammy is among the top tier? I know you play her but really? She's getting a hit of the nerf stick for a reason in the next version. They say they want to make the gap between the top and bottom smaller.

    Deejay always had that AA that causes a juggle state but it was only really useful in the corner and timing needed to be pretty good. You could land a super off it in the corner.

    Decent buffs for Deejay but, once again, not in the areas he actually badly needs them. I think he has received more so will wait and see.

    Did they announce who the fifth character was? I was half making a tuna melt/half trying to suss out what the little giggly guy was saying on the mic. Did I miss it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,587 ✭✭✭Xinkai


    It was Sol Badguy from Guilty gear....

    Nope. They said they'd announce the new character later in the year.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,084 ✭✭✭✭Kirby


    I spotted a Dhalsim buff in there. His medium kick is now two hits instead of one. You can see the Guile focus from midscreen against him and get hit. :) This will help stop the focus spamming against sim. It'll also help against armour moves like Rogs rush punches.

    Now what he needs is some normals damage love and he wont be such a punching bag. And while I'm dreaming, maybe some drill buffs. We've had 4 versions of the game and drills have been ass in all of them. Maybe the 5th version will make them good.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,333 ✭✭✭Sairus


    Some other stuff was Guy's target combo linking to his slide, Cody's knife having armor break, EX Messiah hitting crouchers. No idea what was new with Evil Ryu or Yun.

    Also, Ono deconfirmed Bad Box Art Megaman and Asura as the 5th character.
