Furious One - I got 20/13 thank you very much :arazz: Also I deleted the post cuz I was responding to the Honda v Sim vid, but my computer glitched in thinking that was the last post :annoy:
Anyway, hype is back for this game. I hope to God Capcom realizes this with an announced release date.
As far as last time I knew (which was a long ass time ago), Guile sonics trade with sim low punches, but its not because of a change to the sonic boom. Simās low punches have a slightly taller blue box.
And yes, I think Guile is going to be really really good in this.
Iām really REALLY glad Chun Li still has her full travel SBK, even though itās only done in the air (charge Back, then Up/F instead of F) instead of close to ground. but itās still great. I thought I have to play classic to enjoy those full horizontal travel SBKs. XD
Sirlin and the team did a fantastic job with all this.
Hereās more detail on Chunās SBK that Iām not sure was pointed out:
As you know b,f+k does the SBK+arc
b,f+k in the air does a horizontal one in the air
Also,
db, uf+k will do a horizontal one in the air going forward. You can sort of control the height of this by when you press kick. With quick timing this can be done close to the ground.
df, ub+k will do a horizontal one in the air going backward. You can sort of control the height of this by when you press kick. With quick timing this can be done close to the ground.
db, u+k if timed right will do a horizontal SBK that only travels a few steps. I guess this can be used as an way over projectiles. You can sort of control the height of this by when you press kick. With quick timing this can be done close to the ground. The movement is very similar to her up kicks, and Iām sure the wrong move will come out sometimes. Essentially, the timing for this is done by pressing K just after you press up, rather than at the same time for the up kicks.
Iām not sure if these abilities were intentional design or a result of giving her a horizontal on in the air, but it works out as they donāt seem dangerous.
Iām glad to see that the game is going to rock, but iām also dissapointed to see Sirlin low on morale.
SFHD should be one of his shining momments yet it doesnāt appear like that.
Well, the best to you Sirlin.
On another note, Iām really really hoping this game comes out this year. Iād be really dissapointing to hear the game be delayed 'till next year.
The changes to the characters seem pretty cool. To be honest, the thing I really care about knowing right now is when iāll be able to play it. A lot of us sound llike broken records by saying we want to know the release date, but all these delays are soul crushing. :shake:
I know Iām being way too optimistic, but I wouldnāt take Reyās word at a public event as gospel on release date. Saying āthis yearā is a pretty easy way to not commit to a specific date. Seth said on the Capcom forums it was due to be submitted this week for end of October release. Is that any more valid? Maybe not, but itās in writing. Whoās higher up in the Capcom food chain (just asking, donāt actually know).
Plus, remember they were showing off the 6 character build when the art was obviously much further ahead. Thereās a good possibility the build they were showing (with bugs) isnāt what they currently have in-house.
Also, closeup of Blanka in lower left of this pic:
Nothing official has been stated. We donāt know for sure if theyāre still in tract for a Oct/Nov release.
Some one here posted a few pages back that Rey Misterio (the producer), or what ever his last name is, said that he was āhopingā for a 09 release during an event. Of course, that statement is pure heresay.
Edit. n/m didnāt hit refresh and see crackboneās post.
How the hell did you guys find my vids so fast? LOL
The game is hot! Looks a lot better than it has in the past, the videos dont really do it justice. I played a sagat vs sagat match and it played great imo.
Oh yeah that was from the Gamspot Tournament in San Francisco that went down yesterday.
It looks better in person for sure, I acutally didnt get to play it at Evoā¦was too busy with SF4ā¦(did they have all the characters unlocked at Evo???) but to me it looked like it was cleaned up considerably compared to some other screen shots/videos ive seen in the past.
