I’m sticking with Ryu until Balrog comes out. I hope I feel at home with him and he’s somewhat similar to SF4. I really hope he’s charge.
I picked Ryu just because of familiarity, and then I actually like how he plays like a tank in this game. Also with the rollback netcode instead of the shit input based stuff in SF4, it’s actually easy to react to jump ins and DP them. I am still amazed at how many people will jump at Ryu when he’s standing still.
I picked Birdie because I was hooked the day I saw him use Ryu as a jump rope. i am going to try Alex when he drops but I think it will be safe to say I’ll be maining Balrog when he’s availiable. I tend to play straightforward bruising characters and grapplers anyways.
Cammy - been casually playing Cammy since Hyper Street Fighter 2, and if I’m going to learn this game on a more technical level, I feel I should initially do it with someone who feels familiar to me.
Plus I love her specials, and use all of them frequently. She just feels right to me.
Curious about R. Mika, and will also give Juri a try when she comes, but want to gain a more solid foundation before I start confusing myself with new characters.
Tier whore! Be honorable and stick with a character no matter how bad they are compared to the rest of the cast! If you had any real skill you’d find a way to make the character work you fraud! HMPFH!
Sadly due to moving to New Mexico recently. I’m broke and have yet to buy a PS4 and SFV. But once I get paid from my new job on the 11th. I’m gonna be all over this game. I’m probably looking to main either Chun-Li, karin, Mika, or Ryu. Ryu’s looking to be the front runner because that parry can create those hype moments just like from third strike.
I was thinking the same thing about Gief and F.A.N.G until I started to get better fundamentally. It’s about finding what works with your character of choice.
LOL nah I’m good bro. Great even. I moved out here to New Mexico from Atlanta GA for a job at the Air Force base as a Aircraft mechanic. I now got my own car, my own home and I’m gonna be making bank! I’m officially grown man status now lol. I just gotta get through the first two weeks till I start getting checks. So I’ll only be struggling for 2 weeks. Once them checks start rolling in, I’m good.
Chun-Li - seemed like a good start to get used to the new systems. Also, the pre-order costume.
Zangief - whenever I feel like dishing out some major damage with muscle power. I’ve always loved grapplers as secondaries and I think SFV Gief is one of the most fun grapplers in quite some time.
Cammy, who was my main in SFIV since unfortunately doesn’t feel as satisfying anymore. Maybe I just miss the Cannon Strike gimmicks.
Only using Ken so far. I’m just jumping in with SFV, and he seems like a good starting main. The more I play him though, I love his move set and offensive style that suits it.
Laura, been playing her since day 2. Like her design and this is my first time playing a command grab type of character so it was refreshing. Plus…you know…TITTIES
