Dudley: A Distinguished Thread for Gentlemen Pugilists

Yeah it’s been like 12 years since Francis did the voice for Dudley. They’d have to basically rip his voice from the old game and that of course would seem kind of fake. It would have been probably next to impossible to cast him again seeing that he’s probably retired by now. The quality of the voice acting changed so much from Second Impact to 3rd Strike. In Second Impact Alex sounded like Michael Jackson and Dudley just wasn’t as convincing. I don’t have much hope for the English voice actors in Super considering most of them were terrible ass typical morning cartoon fare but maybe a couple will turn out alright. Hearing Dudley in Engrish is going to be fun as shit though. :lol:

Can you speculate if rolling thunder would be as good as an anti-fireball ultra as chun-lis and abels ultras?

I would also like to know this… Apparently it does go through fireballs, but at what distance? Half-screen? Full screen?

It’s my favourite super art, after all… ^.^

O-O~

Any news about his crouching roundhouse?

dudley sounds fucking gooood like

IIRC you could control the distance that Rolling Thunder went by holding down the buttons. This didn’t increase its invincibility though, and if you held the buttons too long, he would not activate the super. Dunno if this still applies in SSFIV.

Thunderbolt causing untechable knockdown? I can see that being useful occasionally. :stuck_out_tongue:

Rumor:

Cross Counter is GONE???

if it’s anything like 3s rolling thunder it should be a plasma chucker’s nightmare. You could GET HIT by a fireball then punish it with rolling thunder.

Fair enough, but until then, my panties are a bunch. A literal bunch. You couldn’t untie them, that’s how bunched they are. Thanks again for all the info you have shared, regardless. :slight_smile:

Can’t wait for some crazy oki, tight hit confirms into long combos and sweet sweet mix ups.

Were the world mine, Balrogs worst match-up on the tier list will be to our Gentleman of the Glove-clenched Rose.

I was looking forward to an hyper-armor counter but it won’t be too bad if it’s gone. It was arguably the most useless move in 3s.

No

And EX Cross Counter is awesome.

Seriously, someone nominate Logan for something.

BTW, are you allowed to say how capcom approached you about testing the game? how did you get your mitts on it?

yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!

If it looks anything like the 3S version, I believe you.

could you please elaborate on the properties? does it have hyper armor? can you counter fireballs?

Cross counter being gone won’t be the end of the world. That’s for sure. It was slightly more useful than thunderbolt punch. Slightly.

It’s gonna be hilarious once you start connecting it on wake up spammers, that is unless it act like a focus and can be broken.

Hahah i do this all the time. I only hope that it’s the same animation. Dud’s completely let his guard down, leaning forward, and basically saying, “Come on. Hit me…you diseased rhinoceros.”

EX was useful only when you could call someones high attack. Flow charts be damned.

Cross Counter wasn’t all that useful in 3S because of parry, I can definitely see it being much more powerful of a tool in SF4.

Wait, so Thunderbolt in, Cross Counter in, Short Swing Blow is out? Just want to double check the current score card.

Gens Ultras!

@Logan Sama

I just remembered something… Technically we all SHOULD have seen Gens 2 new Ultras at the Las Vegas event, but coincidentally nobody decided to record any footage of it.

There’s no reason for there to be an embargo on a move that everyone should have already seen by now…

I mean, Capcom gave a ton of people access to it…

Basically what I’m asking is, do you think you could record some footage of Gens new Ultras?
They’re the only ones we haven’t seen, and it’s not like Capcom was hiding them from us.
They were in the palm of our hands at the Vegas fight club, but people just…forgot about the motherfucker. lol

please? :slight_smile:

(wrong thread I know >_< but it seems like this is the one Logan Sama is checking the most!)
