Aegis as V-trigger could be amazingly powerful. Guaranteed 2 aegis or more per round. Of course they could change the properties of it to an extent but man that still would be amazing.

Plot twist, the great and powerful Urien gets his suits for cheap from 2nd hand stores.

If R Mika (or Fuerte, though I’m highly not expecting him) got in, I ponder if her v-skill would be her run to cancel into those moves.

That said, that could be scene as a nerf as I’m fairly certain v-skills don’t have EX versions and giving armor would be a very obvious EX upgrade.

If it were something new to the character, one potential idea might be something akin to a… oh, I unno. A flip forward that could hit or grab, sort of like Fuerte’s but more just as it’s own move. Thinking about it, it doesn’t really seem that unique or useful, so I’m not entirely sure what it would be if she were in.

As for her V-Trigger, I have no clue. Super Armor is the first idea, but I feel Birdie already has that. At the same time, Chun and Cammy’s are similar in that they’re multi-hitting but who knows, maybe they’ll do something similar.

R.Mika V-trigger will be turn into crazy tits mode

Feels like senran kagura.
Why’d they do that to chun li…
A little jiggle is fine,a little too much isn’t.

It’s a player 2 “glitch” and it won’t make it into the final version.

It’s a confirmed glitch that only happens for Player 2 side, it’s not that way on player 1 side. It’s being fixed.

Oh i see.
Phew Thanks guys.

B-but, I want the giggle glitch to be a feature! #RiseUp

Neclord · July 3, 2015, 10:54pm

One of my secondary characters is already confirmed (Chun-Li, surprise!), but I really hope at least one of my mains will be in as well.
Either Juri or Poison. Both seems highly unlikely, but I hope at least one of them makes it.

Aside from my mains I would like to see R. Mika and Rose.

Seriously not even kidding. I think this character is so fucking cool and Asura’s Wrath was brilliant. And that Ryu vs. Asura fight was so cool that I want to see him in a fighting game now.

Daemos · July 4, 2015, 1:23am

He’s basically Ryu and Oni’s bastard child. No more shotos or dbz characters.

Cestus · July 4, 2015, 1:42am

If they ever resurrect Darkstalkers or do one of theyr classic Capcom Random Characters fight game, like Capcom VS Whatever?
Sure, why not.
Get him and also Augus or that other character with dark hair

In SF?
No thanks

Heat_Sleep · July 4, 2015, 3:19am

I convinced myself that Maki will be in this game.

IIRC she wasn’t that good in CvS, right? It would be cool if she got a makeover like Birdie did.

ES_Curse · July 4, 2015, 3:20am

After doing a bit of research, I wouldn’t mind one of the OTHER dolls coming back as a playable character. We’ve already seen the ones that rely on hand-to-hand combat more or less, but the others have a lot of potential. We have:
-A pair of Chinese twins who wield nunchucks and a bo staff. Would be a really cool Dramatic Battle Fight
-A Japanese katana wielder. A bit SamSho for this game, but who knows; it isn’t like Charlie or Bison are pulling any punches
-A Vietnamese spear fighter with a pet monkey. FUK YEA!
-T.Hawk’s sister/tribemate … who wields dual hatchets!

The others focus on intel, medicine, or firearms, so they would be really odd. But those 4-5 I would be more than ok with because they would be unlike anything seen before in the series. We don’t need all of them; just one for good measure.

Ariesno · July 4, 2015, 5:47am

If Capcom add Noembelu or another , i hope they don’t use the doll version but her free spirit version issued by Rose.

Like “Little eagle” instead of Noembelu :

‘‘Capcom vs Whatever’’, you really made me lol there.

Skiegh:

Urien is certainly a character I would like to see in SFV, and one I am actually fairly certain will be in it. There will be complications porting him to SFV, but it is possible for him to work within what we know of SFV’s game engine, unlike SFIV, where he would have been a joke.

I think the first palpable issue with porting Urien, if you were to consider him by how his normals and specials were in Third Strike, is that he was actually very reliant on charge partitioning to do well.

Side-point about how I love charge partitioning:

[details=Spoiler]
A mechanic I really wish I could see again, because it made charge characters much more interesting. Curiously, it seems as if Capcom is shying away from full on charge characters so far. For the ones that don’t know what charge partitioning is, you can think of it as essentially having a bit more leeway on charging, so you can charge a little, dash or whatever, then do a c.lp or something into the special. That’s a very incorrect way of describing what it actually consists of, but it’s fine. Not only does it make charge characters much more input intensive and interesting to play, but it also allows for your opponent to become more knowledgeable about it as well – learning where you’re charging and how, so he can better understand when you have a full charge. It made the concept of charging much more ambiguous and fun. It also made charge moves (which are inherently designed to be somewhat superior to motion moves) to be not quite as stupid good and a little less obnoxious while still being great tools if you can manage to hold onto them.[/details]

Being unable to dash and hold a charge if translated into SF3 directly would leave Urien with very little options at all upon initiating melee. He would almost entirely be left with going for a throw into aegis, a good tactic sure… for a game with multiple super bars. Solutions to this would be either make some of his specials motions or lessen his charge times. The latter I dislike because it removes the necessity of holding a charge, as it becomes a lot easier to obtain. Both options also generally mean the move itself has to be toned back a bit, else it becomes a bit overwhelming. Motion tackles would be a very obnoxious thing to have to deal with, especially if they for whatever reason made them safe on block (which none of them were.). I think the most likely candidate to become a motion would be his headbutt. It’s a great movement tool, as well as an interesting attack, with a rather odd hitbox, only really suitable against standers. Also likely, is that he would need some sort of decent crouching cancelable move, which would allow him to hop into range while holding his charge to allow him to pressure if able, or combo, if the headbutt lands.

Perhaps he may also need a new special for basic confirms without charge, who knows.

As for Aegis, I think it’s a pretty obvious V-Trigger, probably a two bar, like Nash’s. Different directions would result in different aegis locations, with hopefully the EX version as well, as the -2 start-up aegis certainly had it’s purpose. I really don’t think it would have to function much different from it’s 3S counterpart. Those concerned about unblockables, well, to be frank, there weren’t that many unblockables that Aegis could really do – yes, there were some that did require some form of parrying, but those could easily be taken out or just not work with SFV’s different hitboxes. Otherwise, Aegis pressure was mostly about being able to successfully block the high low pressure for an extended period of time. If you failed to do so, a good Urien would get his combo. It could just be because I have a lot of experience with fighting Uriens, but I’ve never had trouble dealing with Aegis pressure, and I always find it fun bouncing back and forth between Urien and an Aegis and blocking everything. It’s a very Guilty Gear style block, and it’s satisfying and skillful to do.

They could also probably break Aegis down into a special move if they really wanted to. Massively reducing/increasing it’s duration and start-up on the non-EX versions. Do think that would be a little wonky though, but it could work.

As for his normals, and his lack of ability to aegis into combo into another aegis setup, his general moveset would have to improved. Urien’s balance in 3S was kind of based around the fact that his basic moveset, while entirely functional, was not amazing, nor terrible. I think a few normals would have to be improved in order to allow him an easier meterless/gaugeless experience. I would still like them to reserve the good trade-offs his normals had though. Example being his launcher c.HP, you can cancel the first hit and go for a much less damaging combo, or make your normal a bit safer on block. If you don’t, his 2nd hit can’t be canceled, and leaves you massively negative. I like that sort of normal trade-off. (Pretty sure Abel’s is the same way – though isn’t the 2nd hit cancelable?)

Overall, he can (and will) work in SFV, but he won’t be quite the same Urien. However, I still think he could be pretty amazing if done right, and I’m just more interested more than anything else, in how they will pull it off.

Considering SFV is shying away from complex inputs I doubt charge partitioning will return. Is it even necessary with shorter charge times? Personally I’d like the tackle to become a motion input.

Personally I want Ryu’s Shoryuken to be a charge motion but that ain’t gonna happen. Let charge characters be charge characters and motion be motion, mmm’kay? Most people’s trouble with charge characters is that they try to treat or play them like motion characters, failing to get into the tempo of things and adapting to the different and unique play style that charge character embodies.

The problem is that Urien, despite being a charge character, does not play like one thanks to charge partitioning. Maintaining his playstyle in V is almost impossible unless they find someway to replace that mechanic.

Citrus_monkey · July 4, 2015, 7:23am

Unrelated, but the latest leaked list mentioned Akira from rival schools being in, and although im skeptic as fuck with these, who the hell does NOT want a character like this in SFV?!

Hella cool, 10/10 would main.

Eternal · July 4, 2015, 7:26am

Been mentioned, that leak has also been said to be “bullshit” by Ken Bogard from what I’ve heard. I’m fairly certain that the reason for the Akira claim was because she is on the cover of the upcoming Rival Schools udon book being advertised same time as the Capcom Fighters book and new Street Fighter books.

Eternal · July 4, 2015, 7:28am

Capcom Vs Capcom (which has been requested a billion times) or a new Marvel gamesure that’d be cool. He’d actually be pretty cool if they do a new Tatsunoko vs Capcom, he isn’t really “Henshin” but he is certainly anime inspired. Putting him in Street Fighter? Asura can go fuck himself with his 6 armed penis.

That’s not a “Vs” game. It doesn’t have any of the standard VS mechanics like assists for instance.
