That’s… strange…
Where could it have been recorded?
DUde that tourney was so sweet. 3 consoles with sticks and one with pads. I only got sagat matches in, but he felt good. S.lk is not as good but his tigerknee combos are brutal. He is so freakin HUGE, it gives characters a better opportunity to jump in on him and not eat a DP, so its good for balance, bad for Sagat. S.fk was still good antiair, little les buff though.
I’m still going to own most peeps.
Just got back from the San Fran tourney…some things I noticed:
Sagat, T.Hawk, Zangeif and especially Balrog look fucking sick!!! Big and well animated…bison looked pretty good too. On the other hand, Cammy and Fei looked unfinished art-wise and not as good. Fei looks like a teenage boy.
Some gameplay things I saw:
-Fei and Cammys’ easier motions are awesome making them way more playable.
-Dhalsim yoga flame is now half(quarter?) circle back. Noogie distance is nerfed but throw did not seem to be.
-the easier mashing of hands/elec/foot made for some accidental use of them. Saw some blanka just trying to do slide and getting elec on accident.
-Akuma has no overhead, or it is different. Super through fireballs was pretty sick.
- Sagats’ Tiger knee juggle. first TN juggles hitting once, than followup with another TN hits twice in the air hence the three hits. J.Mk did crossup.
-Balrog still seems pretty good. At least from what I saw of Graham Wolfes.
Can’t remember much else. Some random guy won the whole thing beating both Choi and Wolfe( i think) with Guile. The ex2 sticks were the shits.
Had a lot of fun, Thanks Gamespot, Backbone, and Capcom. The game will be good. I’ve never been to a SF tourney before and it was awesome to make it to the final 8 and get peaced out by a legend like Graham Wolfe.
Ah. Forgot to add there were several glitches. The bad one was a crash glitch that I saw 4 times on 3 different consoles. Also a couple graphic glitches like on Hondas super there would be red lines across the screen. I don’t think they are quite done. Heard Rey Jimenez say they were hoping for it to be released “this year”. yikes.
Sigh.
OUCH!!! that’s madness! this far and they still are having technical problems…
I guess a November or December release might be the case if they can’t get this ready for
late October…
oh well, Saints Row 2 is in two weeks anyway. that’ll keep me busy until HD Remix is available.
:sad:
Unbelievable…
wtf this is bullshit. The game was supposed to be done 2 years ago. More problems?! How? They took an existing system and tweaked it, they fucked up that bad this far in the game?
Christ, MORE WAITING!!!?? It’s sad that MK vs DC mess is coming out before this game does :shake:
Wait what? I know every project has its problems but weren’t they just waiting for the art to be done?
pre orders sthd shirt that says coming fall 07
I was joking when I said sf4 would be released before this:sad:
Demonlos so you’re confirming that crossup mk, cr forward, double tiger knee works and does 45%? I really hope someone posts up vids I wanna see dat new rainbow roll and fake slide into throw.
**
yeah I know right.** wtf. are most of the developers fresh out of bootcamp?
It sounds like less experienced people handled the programming
when they are only beginning to know what the heck they are doing.
Yo Just Finished Playing The Full Version At San Fran…The Game Is An Insant Classic…The Graphics Are Gorgeous…Every Character Looks Amazing…Still Plays The Same…Akuma Is Crazy Hard In The Last Level…He’s Dope…Umm Anything Else Just Ask…I Also Met Seth Kilian…The Man Is Cool As Hell…He Hinted At Marvel 3
the ARTWORK was already done in August. the IGN Udon interview proves it and explains why they are back to doing Street Fighter comics now.
**
oh well, as long as the devs don’t cancel the project, then they might be able to redeem themselves fixing this ASAP**
I can confirm MK crosses, and that C.forward cancels into TK and that you can juggle another TK. I personally did not put all together and I don’t know about 45% but it did seem like a lot. And that rainbow roll was pretty crazy…
And about the crashes, for all I know it was a problem with their setup and not the game…I’m just reporting what I saw.
yeah, maybe they should use the consoles people buy at the store instead of
their “special” test kits. =P but yeah, only they know what could have been the
real problem.
But they progress pretty fast if they really work like it’s crunch time. I mean look at
how the game has improved since the beta
it is pathetic indeed. Ever since Sirlin’s yomi card game getting rejected by capcom, call it a hunch, but I’m sure his motivation to make new articles, or even tutorials and other side projects is probably down the shitter. I have a feeling hes feeling the burn from capcom. I know a long time ago, it was said that most the articles are done. And I know sirlin has been wanting this info to get out to the fans and srk to keep discussion of this game alive and keep the game fresh. But I’m sure at this point, all the articles are horribly outdated and it was pretty much just a wasted effort on his behalf. I know I would be pissed if I spent all that time on something, possibly for free, to help promote a game and build anticipation, to basically get shitted on.
Just seems like horrible mis-management of the IP. Which is disappointing. Cuz we see games like mm9, and even bionic commando, get great press and publicity and now the games are reaping the benefits with great sales. especially BC, and that is not a big IP for capcom. Yet SF is their biggest IP along with MM and RE, they owe most of their early success to SF2, and it seems like they are kinda shitting on this particular title.
The game is practically finished, a year overdue, and capcom has still barely released much in the way of media(minus the beta). And here we are, still waiting on cam footage from the players to get a look at the game. It’s silly! The game is being exposed to the public, for all to see, yet they still release no media, artwork, or articles. It’s insane. It’s almost like they want this game to fail, in order to make sure sf4 does well, or some bs like that. Makes no sense.
I know if i was sirlin, i would be pretty pissed that my brainchild is getting neglected.
anyway. since the game was shown to the general public, i guess everything can be talked about freely now. So no more secrets from me =) I’ll let loose whatever information I got, if needed
okay does Chun Li still have her legendary thunder thighs?
It’s really pretty bizarre to be honest. At least the general consensus to those that played it today are positive. Hype level going up a bit again.
Now… release the info, spill the beans, get the rest of us in the know!
I’m hoping there will be some direct feed pics and videos coming from Gametrailers,1up and others if they attended.The Capcom blog should also be updated to report on how the event went.I just hope we get a concrete press release statement instead of “sometime in 08”,we only got 3 months left
