SFV Character Request/Anticipation Thread

[ES_Curse]

Had to edit some things because it didn’t make sense. Not sure what her V skill could be though…Not a clue.

If she’s the only SF4 character in, then I could see her V-skill being her focus attack.

That would be uber lame…

They could hybridize it with her counter where the dash cancel can cross through people and give her an additional up option to mimic her HP counter.

Actually, I like that idea: Combine Juri’s counter and focus attack into one move that can be teleport canceled if something connects with her.

[FengShuiEnergy]

Hmmmmmmmmmmm I think something she doesn’t already have would be nicer. I suspect something to do with her FSE. That would be sick. Hmmm I thought about things like fuhajin stuff, dive kicks, and even kasatushi…but she already has those things. So I would like to see something different.

Add more variety and new options she could have.

Maybe some sort of…Gah I honestly don’t know. I’m drawing a blank.

If any character returned with a focus skill it’d be hakan. Juri’s should simply be her kasatushi with direction input changing which port she does. In SF5 it’d be a lot stronger as there is no armor breaking moves, make it not take white health like AE2012. It’d have a decently long animation so whiffing would be a risk, but it’d have a lot of active frames unlike Parry / Bison’s counter and it’d build a lot more V-Gauge on a successful absorb. Make it so that they startup on 2F instead of 3F, still can’t use them to beat a meatie but still very fast. During V-trigger they act like her EX version and she can use it vs meaties and control the direction even after the absorb instead of having to select before hand, also she can cancel out of the port sooner during V-trigger so she can punish a lot more stuff and allows her to control the distance she goes easier by allowing cancel sooner.

[FengShuiEnergy]

But that’s her standard kasatushi. Her SFxT counter was far better. I hope they use that one with a few tweaks (counters everything save throws would the only tuning it needs/I want it would be perfect then).

But I disagree having her V-skill her already existing skill but with 2 button press seems really lame.

[hecz]

They revealed two england characters my guess is two US characters, Ken and Alex.

[AKUMA2000]

AKUMA -

1. V Skill - When he does his stomp and goes into the horse stance the stomp is so strong it knocks the opponent down if their close to him, if the opponent is away from him the force makes the opponent cringe and block and makes they’re stun meter fill up some.

2. V-Trigger - Satsui No Hadou mode, raging demon strikes 35 times instead of the normal 15 and all the hits he dishes out does more damage.

3. His V Reversal - Does an alpha counter like move and goes into a EX hurricane kick that sucks the opponent in .

I posted in the general discussion a few days ago, there is a supposed leak.

“Leak”

Alex
Urien
Juri
Ken
Dhalsim
Karin
Zangief
R.Mika
4 unknown
Possibly more

Confirmed:

Ryu
Charlie
Birdie
Cammy
Chun Li

The person who leaked this info is supposed to be a solid source of info, the guy who passed it on asked not to be mentioned. I’m assume his friend had NDA. Now thi is the internet so still take with a grain of salt, but the next reveal will show the validity of this list.

I’m a Vega player but don’t want him in the game even though I think the SFV mechanics would give him many opportunities to exceed beyond his limitations in SFIV.

Lol, simply burned out from SF4 Vega. And I don’t necessarily know if Capcom has the mental fortitude to develop Vega in a way that is balanced. He’s either crappy or has serious flaws (like in SF4) or is a bit OP (SF2, xTekken).

A3 Vega was decent actually. CvS2 Vega was too outside A-groove. A-Vega was godlike.

[Vampire_Saviour]

Hopefully something new, and not a play on nostalgia or whatever.

[Daikuza]

The only right answer is Zangief !
and R.Mika of course.

[kdash420]

SF 2
Dee Jay

SF Alpha
Karin
R.Mika
Nash
Rolento

SF 3
Alex
Urien
Hugo
Oro would be cool

SFxT
Poison

SF 4

You think Vega is op in SFxT? What version of the game were you playing man?

Anyway, yea. Vega needs to be in SFV. The question is if Capcom feels like balancing him properly.

CvS2 A-Sakura, with her V-Trigger being the ability to cancel her DP into itself.

Lol and it guard breaks after like 4 just for shits. All hail our CvS2 queen.

Fuck yes, that’d actually be kind of amazing to me. Yeah, it might mess with Juri a bit, but Sho-time combos are oddly entertaining. And hey, give her her dive kick back because why not.

[GenUser]

Vega was going to be soo good in Ultra until Capcom got scared and undid most of what was going to make the game much better.

[g0ldenchild562]

I think all 3rd characters should get the ability to parry.

[Cestus]

Keep in mind (mostly talking to the “give Vega a backflip V-skill” crowd) that V-Skills, as seen thus far, have a sort of check that rewards meter when used correctly. An invincible dodge V-Skill wouldn’t work because, by nature of being invincible, you aren’t making any interaction with a move from or against the opponent. While Birdie has his doughnut V-Skill that is just a taunt with meter gain on completion, he has to go through a full animation that leaves him open to attack, which is very different from something like a dodge.

Ryu: Has to successfully parry something to be rewarded
Chun-Li: Has to hit with the move to be rewarded
Nash: Has to hit either the opponent or a projectile to be rewarded
Bison: Gets some reward for successful parrying, gets more for hitting with the projectile.
Cammy: Has to hit with an invincible, cross-up friendly move
Birdie: Has to either complete the animation or hit with his unorthodox projectiles

So remember: V-Skills involve either a hitbox interaction or a risky action. You can’t just throw any old animation on and make it a V-Skill. It has to be something the game can verify is being used correctly by either reading a hitbox/hurtbox collision or something that would be very easily punished with a big combo if used brainlessly, if not both.

Chun’s V-skill is a oblique jump / air dash

The initial jump has a hitbox. I forget if she builds meter for follow up hits or not.

In this case i say give him a backflip and/or forward backflip that work as a tenshin throw if Vega land over his opponent

Well-timed normal against cross-up attempts, forward against slow normals

[Alexisdabomb]

I think all 3rd characters should get the ability to parry.

That would make perfect sense actually. Either that or they get a taunt that boosts a stat (Health, Stun, Damage, Meter)

If the rumors are true then Alex and Urien are getting in and that’s good enough. I’d want to see at least 4 more in season 2 though.

Preferably:

Q
Necro
Dudley
Makoto

[GenUser]

We need a character with a one hit kill light punch <_<
