Soul Calibur 5 Official Discussion

For some reason, Lizzy’s profile is still outdated lol

On the good side, seems that Dampierre’s status on SCV is indeed canon - since he does have a storyline tied with the game and all - which is pretty nice.

And on the useless-side, Bonus Character Ashlotte is also canon, according to Astaroth’s profile. But me gusta these things.

Didn’t even notice that
So I wonder if that’s true for all the bonus characters, I want SGT. Frog to be SC canon now

Canon Angol Fear FTW.

(her “adventures” in the Soulcalibur-verse is actually canon with the manga - plus, it is stated that Mois and Fear are cousins too.)

It seems like Heihachi, Ezio, Lloyd are the only guests on the site
And only a handful of the bonus characters

Looks like footage should be up later

Oh shit! I actually read some of that! @_@ imagine a few SC characters kicking around in THAT universe?

actually considering the shit that happens in SGT. Frog it’d pretty much be par for the course.


Awesome, New build matches are going up

Who’s theme is “The Storm Bringer”?

I’m loving the footage of Aeon. Thanks to those who caught footage!

Aeon’s looking different, and that I really like. Though, some speculated that he might have some of Kratos’ moves from that PSP Soul Cal due to the fact that Aeon has wings. I never did play that game, so…can anybody else tell if that’s the case? Aeon appears to have some “flight enhanced” moves, if you will.

JURASSIC EDIT: So, I guess initial impressions from SCR reveal that Aeon has a lot of Kratos’ moves from that PSP Soul Cal. I’m not sure how Kratos was as a character, but I like how Aeon the Spartan got moves from a previous Spartan. Otherwise, a lot of Aeon’s staple moves appear to be in, and he has a new “flight stance” where he apparently has a quick unblockable? I’ve heard the flight stance compared to Devil Jin’s from Tekken. Well, we’ll have to wait and see whether or not it’s actually useful.

Interesting

I have no idea how anyone can get anything out of such a blurry image haha.

Blurry Images are the greatest kind in fighting games
Everyone knows that

Possibly some new stuff at 5pm PST

4 damn matches.

vomit*

2P costumes look dope so far. Hilde’s looks classy as fuck, and I hope Mitsu does indeed get some decent samurai armor again.

Asty’s look retarded, though.

The four exhibition matches were great. I was disappointed by the lack of Aeon, but the quality of the fights more than made up for it. Also seeing the 2P costumes in action was great, but I do agree that Astaroth’s 2P costume is stupid looking. I know that his 2P costumes have always looked bizarre…but this is far and away the most bizarre looking, I think.

Hopefully within the next few days we’ll get some stream archives or player footage from SCR so we can digest more of the new information.

What could it beeeeeeeeee

front page article on DLC. When I saw Dampierre slap Pyrhaa’s butt, i let off my best nut

So Dampierre gets an actual slot
So that’s
13 Returning: Mitsurugi, Maxi, Siegfried, Hilde, Tira, Ivy, Astaroth, Yoshimitsu, Raphael, Voldo, Nightmare, Cervantes, Dampierre
8 New: Patroklos, Pyrrha, Aeon, Natsu, Leixia, Xiba, ZWEI, Viola
N/A:Ezio

6 slots left, not counting the center one that appears to have something hidden behind it.
They ever say the roster was officially 50/50? if they did, I guess the Center is also a character
Huh, the last 6 could all be new characters then, with like Night Terror as the boss, or something

Would be great to have a couple more veterans. Like Zasalamel, Talim, Yun-Seong.

I’m still holding on to that impossible hope that Setsuka will come back. :frowning:

I really want Talim to come back, or at least something equivalent to her style. Also, please don’t let her suck ass again. They were really fucking around in the last game when they decided to make her ass slow for god knows whatever reason. SMDH
