You might be able to reset into it, that way the damage handicap gets nulled and you get an ultra.
The Japanese VA is trash, completely devoid of character. Most of the Japanese VAs in this game are like that; passable, but not memorable.
i no toly shud of bruoght back skullomania or karin omg capcom fuck you voting with my wallet boycott ssf4 making a petition
I don’t really despise Hakan. Though I think a lot of the reaction you guys are getting from the people who really are offended by the character design is because of stuff like this. I mean it’s just disingenuous to say “oh well he fits in perfectly”, because then the response, even by the people who liked him wouldn’t be this strong if he just “fit in”. I mean obviously he is meant to be a step beyond the current cast.
He’s much more outright goofy than any of the current character. That’s the appeal and the issue, pointing to Blanka or Dan is just really silly, because Hakan is in his own class and that’s the point. I mean look at his introduction video, his entire character design is meant to be expressly goofy, in a way so bombastic that comparisons to current characters just fall flat.
Now, before you all start screeching “HATER” I’d like to just say I’m a little disappointed with Hakan, but I’m not incredibly against it. Though we gotta remain a little consistent here.
best voice acting in sf4- hands down
pretty kick ass theme as well
Too bad his japanese voice sounds terrible compared to his english one oh well :wgrin:
if you are disappointed, what is it that you had in mind/would have prefered?
Did anyone try an armor breaker on Hakan’s 69 trap ultra? It basically looks like a counter ultra and we know Fei Long’s and Cammy’s can be broken.
Anybody else get a Mario Bros. feel with the design work for his daughters? They remind me of Toad. It’s a cute picture and his wife is a milf btw.
I want to use this character but I have a bad feeling a lot of characters are going to be bad for him. Sagat will probably fuck him up good same with Dudley.
Your right, thats why a lot of people keep saying he is “gay” a lot of people don’t get the joke. Japanese have a very dirty mind when it comes to comedy. Most people who are not aware of both Turkish Oil Wrestling and Japanese toilet humor will always get the wrong idea. Also it helps that most of the opinions from what i’ve heard are from us Americans who use Double Entendre’s a lot to insinuate something sexual when it’s not.
A lot of people on Youtube that gave their responses (Like it’s worth anything) says they won’t be using Hakan regularly but it’s only because they dont’ want to feel embarresed playing him because he’s not just a joke type character, a lot of his special moves and quotes suggest things that we feel uncomfortable about.
It’s silly but lets just get it out in the open because thats the real problem people have with him, they dont’ wan’t to play with a character that suggest something that could be gay in fear that it may say something about them. it’s just homophobia but they use things like “He’s a joke character” or “he’s ridiculous” as an excuse. But because of this, people are gonna lose a lot of fights againts him because people are too prideful to use every character. I’ve seen this all too much and I bet you guys have too.
I was’nt sure myself but seeing that everyone is so scared of using him, im gonna make it my goal not just to use him but learn every dirty trick in the book and make him viable. I think anyone talking about playing Hakan needs to have this attitude because, no one is gonna take you serious until you straight up pwn someone without mercy when SSF4 comes out. have fun with him for a week then when you can study every inch of frame data on this cat. Gimmicky or not, this guys is secretly dangerous.
Sorry for the long speech.
Its not a counter ultra, its a trap which mean if you touch him in ANY way you caught in it, its not an ultra you do in response to someone mashing normals. Counter Ultras need to be activated by a hit, for Hakan’s OCH you just need to be touching his hit box, doesnt matter if your neutral jumping, jumping in, crossing over, attacking, or just standing next to him. Touch that hitbox your caught in it
^this i fully agree, people are waaaaaaayyy to “prideful”.I’ve been playing to main him since he was leaked. Hakan looks fun as hell to play, and i don’t see anything gay about anything he does, its all funny as hell. And i guarentee that once people start getting their asses kicked by him we’ll be getting alot of former haters switching over, because they’ll think “OMGZ HUS SU PWRFULZ”, and not playing him because they actually like the charecter. And if they keep hating let them fuck if i care. I’ll swim in their tears
i dont think anyone is seriously offended because they think he seems homosexual
In Japanese, he actually does say that. He says “ikuze”, which can be translated as “let’s go” or “here we go” or “here I go”.
in japanese “iku” - “to go” is also the slang verb used for orgasaming. kind of like how we use “to come”
so hes doing the double entendre thing even in the japanese voice work
i say double posting rules!
You are correct, nothingman. I see you’ve done your “research” hur hur.
from the Ono interview:
I thought he didnt crossup???
Probably erroneous translation. He probably meant mix up.
Karin and Rolento were top on Ono’s list, but they kept getting cut. He wasn’t even able to squeeze them into the backgrounds.
I’m fairly certain they will be in SSFIVT, along with the missing SF3 badass characters (Elena, Urien, and Seth Killians and my fav, Oro)
sorry for that off topic lol
Hmm… dont know, it’s not the same as in ENG, not enough love for his daughters (which also are so pretty BTW) in that video.
