I’m a fan and a player of the game posting on a message board about the game. We come here to discuss stuff, one of them can be about how you’d like certain things to be changed. You don’t have to be a top player or apart of the development team to be allowed to express your opinion about stuff like this.
In fact, Mr. Ono mentioned that they are paying attention to what fans want and will use that info when making a sequel or update. So basically as long as we’re not bombarding Capcom’s office with threatening messages demanding for change, we can discuss whatever the fuck we want as long as we do it in a calm and civilized manner. Or according to this thread, with a shitload of sarcasm in between a few serious post.
There are other characters that need buffs/tweaks: Vega, Guile, Fei Long, Rose and probably more. I gotta feel for those players knowing the only safe way to land that ultra is after a successful FA…
The only buff Ryu needs is cast-based: new outfits, lot’s of them… Not just a single outfit and 100 colors. A little variation would be nice ya know…
In regards to the step-kick, if you think capcom has it in their heads that no 2 characters can have the same move…LOL. Wall bounce mechanics are clearly available because theres wall jumping, it wouldn’t be hard to do at all. but if you give ryu such an easy way to hit confirm ultras on the ground, from midscreen, for ONE EX bar, he’d be higher than sagat is now.
I think you’re confused about ryu’s red hadou…ryus red hadou was slower, and caused knockdown. It was never a multihitter like akumas.
I’d like fake hadoukens
I’d also like his old f mk but not as an overhead, just as another way to move in on people.
I know exactly how it works, I just figured if they gave it to Ryu, it’d have the same properties that it has now with Akuma. As for the 3S kick, well you’re right. It just doesn’t seem right for ones FA to be a special move for another. But I’ll take it if they add it.
If they want to rebalance the game and beef up weaker characters while leaving the stronger ones like Ryu and Sagat alone, then that’s fine. Just as long as they’re consistent. So yeah, I don’t want to see Sagat or Akuma get another new move that will help there game while guys like Ryu and Guile have gained no extra moves since SF2(or SF1 in the case of Ryu).
I’d just like for Capcom to liven up things a bit with Ryu. Bison got the devils reverse and teleport, Balrog has a headbutt and running overhead punch, and so on(since SF2 that is). These things breathed some new life into the character and gave players who main them some new tools to work with and new strategies about how to approach opponents with it.
If most players don’t want this and Capcom feels that way, then that’s fine. I’d rather have something new, but I’ll be ok and won’t bitch or complain if it doesn’t happen.
Come on, just cos I don’t win tournaments doesn’t mean I don’t understand the game. Like Rice Eater and Abzolut said a lot of the changes people are suggesting would actually balance the game better rather than breaking it. Saying only top players can suggest fixes for things that blatantly DON’T WORK in this game is bullshit.
seriously what more would you want? look at poor guile. this is like the worst game for him all he got was his range shortened and his Flash kick nerfed.
I say give ryu one frame links then you will feel half the pain as us guiles players do QQ
Give him some new costumes or more charisma if you will,but he’s already perfect as far as gameplay goes.If they add an ultra II option,I could see the shin shoryuken.It’s nuts to change Ryu when Capcom finally nail him perfectly. I’ve been trying out Ryu in most SF games and he’s finally the character that we saw in those SF movies.Versatile,accessible,solid and deadly along with fun combo potential and that killer ultra is just :lovin:.
There’s plenty of characters who need help and Ryu or Akuma(another character who’s finally where he should be) aren’t them.
Nerfing Sagat and leaving Ryu and Akuma intact will already do wonders for SF IV dash.
HP & c.HP recovery time. Never like this in SF history where throwing the hardest punch is a suicide
Tiger Uppercut has more invisibility frame that Shoryuken??? Fake Srk wins againts real Srk? Fix that please capcom…
Hop kick like SFA is cool, but I prefer to have Universal Overhead Leap like in 3rd strike.
In no parry game to bring back Denjin Hadouken (not gonna happen right?)
Most of all… Joudan Kick and it’s EX that can also absorb 1 hit.
For the system :
ISM selection :
IV (with focus and FADC… nothing changed)
III (Parry, Leap Attack (UOA), More than 1 Super Bar, No Focus, No FADC)
II (1 Super, Full Invisibility of srk on the way up, Quick Stun on any special moves, No Ultra, No EX, No FADC, No Dash)
Fair juggling. Sagat can juggle his S.HK 2x and continue to Ultra, while Ryu can’t even juggle with his special move… he has to sacrifice EX bar to air juggle. What the??? Fix Sagat, or fix the rest please…
But he needs a badass win qoute and alt costume, shirt comes off and he’s dirty? How about civilian clothing, or somethig not related to his original costume…
