Street Fighter 5 Announced: PC and PS4 Only With Cross Play!

[Great Dark Hero]

R. Mika looks so pretty...
Her walk is a tad slow that doesn't really seem to hinder her that much.

R. Mika seems to still have mobility with her moves. Bison seems to be a slow walker but has amazing mobility himself.

sf4 player mentality is gonna be like that for a while. I can kinda understand liking your first fighting game a lot though lol The problem that people have is they are mad that almost none of the skills they learned from sf4 will carry over to sf5. Sf5 is gonna be fundamental based for the most part and thats what they don't enjoy.

The same thing happens when a new SF is out, people whined about SF4 as well. People are always biased towards their first, but for some reason SF3 and SF4 fans are just downright fanatical. I'm just trying to figure how the bs aspects of the game made it good, but I guess some people just like crazy design. Maybe he should play a more over-the-top game like Marvel.

People who don't like to win off of fundamentals shouldn't be taken seriously.

Quite a few things I need to update on the R. Mika pastebin...
Mainly the damage output and stun from the meterless BnB combos I listed earlier.
I also need to highlight the damage buff ratios from the V-Skill as well.

Yea, considering the game has had a lot of constant changes it'll need that. I wonder how often they'll patch the game once it's out.

The females are better to look at on your own television screen than just on youtube videos. Trust me on this.
I am keeping the preorder for sure. It seems like Capcom is actually getting their act together. Ever since SFIV came out, the leadership within the company have been acting half silly (specifically during the years of 2011 and halfway through 2013).
At the time I tested the initial beta both Cammy and Chun Li looked hot as hell (you would have to see it for yourself on your own television screen because a lot of messages I am trying to get across may come off as an understatement. If Cammy and Chun Li both look this good think imagine how the likes of R. Mika, Karin and Laura would look.

Say no more. I always believed that seeing something in person is not the same as watching a YouTube video. Needless to say I'm hyped.

I'm downloading the beta now.

www.eventhubs.com/news/2015/oct/21/street-fighter-5-beta-now-available-pre-load-steam/



PC users have cause to rejoice as the Street Fighter V beta on Steam is now available for pre-load for those who have pre-ordered a copy.

The beta is set to go live early on October 23rd for PC players, and if you want to be ready when the time comes, you should jump on Steam and get to pre-loading.

Once on Steam, the beta client will pop up in your library list as "Street Fighter V Beta," and you should be able to get things going with the two gigabyte file from there.

When the PC users join the SF5 army, it will mark the first time that we'll get to experience cross platform play in the realm of online Street Fighter, surely a mile marker in franchise history.

R. Mika's damage is just... wild. Even without meter.
I thought V-Trigger was going to be a handful but then I figured out how to conduct more damaging combos with it.
I need to practice more command grab set ups. I'm a little too adamant about getting all of the guaranteed damage when missing other
good set ups that lead to even bigger damage.
I'm under the impression that R. Mika is a scrub-killer character (that is, if the opposing player doesn't have any real game plan or lacks knowledge on how the neutral game works, it's nearly a free win).

I would test out other characters, but Necalli and Ken don't really interest me that much.
Vega... I'm sort of curious about. Karin is another character that I definitely need to play.

Yea it seems the female characters interest me more, not just because of design, but gameplay. Good to see she has great grabs, normals, and damage. She'll likely be good for sure. Grapple characters tend to be inherent scrub killers anyways because new players don't know how to get around their grabs.

One of my initial approaches...

Keep them coming! Did you receive any messages?

[The Big Daddy C-Master]

Some 4k photos from the PC version. It definitely looks worth the wait! GDH was right.

So anti-jump tech? Glad to see Mika getting a lot of love.

This one is good too. Closest thing to a 50 50 I've seen so far and yeah they can't jump. I don't know what happens if they back dash or press buttons though.

They could block that, but they would still be under pressure.

You could probably change the timing to choose which side its gonna hit on. Gonna play Karin but I see potential in this. First one is probably more useful though

[JACK-2]

How is the beta guys?

[The Big Daddy C-Master]

Not available just yet. Unless you mean the beta male who's boning that Down Syndrome Model, lol.

Hate to spoil the merriment, but you guys have to see this. Western artist on SRK redesigns Fighting Game characters. Trigger warning:

This deserves its own thread. That or put it in the Darwin's Award thread where all of the other stupid posts from morons go.

I will start of by saying, that in terms of the uniforms Poison looks decent and Mai isn't half bad. Felicia looks the worst.

Of course they want women to be men, so they gave the girls bodies of 12 year old boys. *I* have larger breasts than these girls.

It's sad because not only is their cause stupid, but it's not based on any intellectual thought. It just jumps on the bandwagon.

No not the first pc beta but maybe the second. I wanna make sure they port it correctly first

Good catch. They had a discount a couple of weeks ago too. Enjoy.

I played a bit of Mika but I don't like her much. Somehow I ended up at Ken and he is mad fun!

Figures.

Did you get any matches?

[Great Dark Hero]

... Back to R. Mika. I'm noticing a flood of Ken players (and QUITE a few Vega's) popping up everywhere. All of whom are rather easy targets for counter hits (because, they keep jabbing on wake-up for some reason).

I don't know what it is with people and not blocking. You can't even condition them because they just won't block.

How do you like Rashid?
