yes, none of the palettes in this picture look quite like the originals (especially Hugo), but it’s most likely because of the camera + TV combination that must have twisted the colours.
Plus, if they include a colour edit mode or new extras, they sure won’t show it now.
I remember Seth Killian saying 3S Online “would go nowhere any Capcom game has been graphically” (or something in that taste…) and that big efforts were put in that direction.
As we can now be sure the game is not getting murdered by Udon, I thought that maybe they’d include some sort of a dynamic lightning affecting the palettes real time, ala KOF XIII.
It’s just speculation, and nothing points that way, but I wonder what he meant as 3S being beauty is 10 years old news and it didn’t seem like he was aiming these words at possible newcomers.
How would the camera and TV affect the colors that drastically? Hugo doesn’t have a color even resembling that in the pic. I’m not too knowledgable in cameras so I’m probably missing something but good quality camera + HD TV = twisted colors doesn’t compute. If I am missing something please correct me because I’m genuinely confused by this.
Oh yeah… They better include Hugo’s start + fierce color.
I dunno… I’d prefer arcade colors only in 3so. However, I do understand that some arcade colors SUCK, and some console colors are awesome, so maybe a mix would be cool. There are some console colors that just look like they got high and went in MS paint and clicked random colors for the characters. If they used the start + scheme and took out like neon green Necro or whatever the BS colors were and replaced them with more… 3S-ish colors, I’d like that. I play Oro, his arcade colors almost all suck balls.
^ I say just throw in all the colours.Even the ones straight out of 2nd impact and NG.Maybe make it so you have to choose a reserve of 6 at the character select screen though so you dont have like 30 colours to choose from.
I dont see why it would do any harm as long as the colours dont blend in with the stages or whatever.Capcom will probably make it so you cant see your opponents unique colour choice anyway just like you cant see some alternates in SF4.
I don’t see why you wouldn’t see color choice… In every game I know you see the colors. Unless you mean user made schemes but that isn’t really what you said.
It’s really not that important either way. Also I don’t know how color blind or confused you guys are but the Hugo in that image is the blond colored hugo with yellow shirt and pants. The remy is his purple pant color scheme, the one with more white than blue hair. No twisted colors, no confusion, they’re both just alt arcade color schemes.
to clarify, i wasn’t saying that all the console colours were inferior or all the arcade ones were good. it’s just that on average, the originals fit better with the character designs and sprite art, and many of the console palettes don’t look professional at all. clown hugo and human urien are fun as inside jokes among friends but i sure don’t want to have to look at that every time online.
shrug either way, most of them are based on or directly from NG or 2I (which in my mind legitimizes them since they were in the arcade at some point) so i guess letting people use the few ugly ones is the downside of getting those.
it’s a mixed bag. some console colors were absolutely ass, but i can say the same about some of the originals.
oro’s OG color for fierce and short are kinda gross and so is console color Start+Roundhouse. that console color looks like it isn’t even finished. everything is based off of one color except his rope. WTF? however, console color jab, fierce, and forward are great imo. also, who doesn’t love sean’s pimp pink console colors?
The console colors were a mixed bag, but there were some really great ones. Chun had some awesome ones, not to mention Q and Urien(Iceman, Ganondorf, and fuck you haters human color was the shit).
Human color Urien is the main reason I don’t want PS2 colors on 3so. If they took out that one and replaced it with fucking neon green, I would be pleased.
lol, I didn’t mean to start a war on which color is best.
Everyone has different taste and we’ll never all come to agree there.
There were good ideas on console too, but arcade ones fit better the characters designs while some console were just wtf schemes.
On that matter, colour edit would be a nice bonus but it’s just that, a bonus.
If you think of it, there has been probably less than ten peeps who did major contributions to the color edit thread, and we managed to redesign the game in as many different ways that you can love or hate (yes, with some ugly stuff too).
Bring it on as a standard on 3S OE worldwide and we’ll see many great and ugly colours for every taste pop on the web.

btw, I added all the old pals I had from you with ESN to his database, is it alright ?
lol, replace all existing palettes with clown Hugo or Start+strong yun schemes ^^

Any optic device (camera, scanner, printer…) affects the colours during its process, and photography is never an exact testimony of what colours and light were.
Ono’s pic shows very slightly different colours than original, if you’re colour picky like me (mainly more blue on remy’s jacket and shoe, and more red to hugo’s foot) but it’s defenetly classic arcade colours.
Only an actual screenshot would be a duplicate of the gam’es colour data as it’s a direct capture of the rvb data.
