I’d speak against removing the roundhouse jab loop, it mainly just serves to give him an even match with Sagat, which is what we want.
850 is low, but it’s a fair amount of life for his abilities. (also think it’s his traditional figure?) Put him up to 900, Chun Li players, Gens, Dhalsims, Fuerte’s they all ask WTFs going on.
Health does make a difference. Anyone think Zangief would be good with 800 health?
i personally cant wait for ssf4. i just hope they dont diminish certain characters abilities. They seem to always do that when they introduce a sequel.
one change i want with akuma has nothing to do with his gameplay. Instead of they rediculous naruto style alt costume, i would love to see the alt costume be cyber akuma aka terminator akuma!
I really, really don’t want Akuma to get an ultra that he can combo/juggle into.
Technically you can combo into his SGS ultra with a well timed fierce hadou xx lvl 2 EX focus dash cancel ultra, but I really don’t want to see him getting anything like what Ryu has in his metsu hadouken.
SSF4 would be completely ruined for me if half the people in this topic got there way, which would be Akuma being the best in the game. If I wanted to play the top tier, i’d pick Sagat. I don’t want to hear people bitching about my character being overpowered. Leave him how he is, maybe give him a new super, but make it weak as hell.
I don’t get the “two demons is overkill” or “It’s stupid that his Ultra and Super are the same” argument. Ryu’s Ultra and Supers are hadokens, Gouken’s Ultra and Supers are SRKs, and Gen’s Ultra and Super are pretty much the same. A lot of people’s supers are lesser versions of their Ultras.
Only changes Akuma needs are his super and ultra. 2 Demon rages is just lazy on Capcom behalf. Since everyone is gonna have 2 Ultras and 1 super. He should have Ultra Demon and Ultra Hadoken. His super should be Ken’s Shoryureppa. Wouldnt mind seening Akuma’s Kongou Kokuretsuzan as an Ultra but I dunno if it would work well in SF4.
