Becareful what you wish for…

sits awkwardly behind PC watching Daemos Raging Demon an Air,thinks he is hallucinating

What do you guys think of Oros chances of making it in? He’s got the dope uppercut, double jumps, headstomps, projectiles, etc. I’ve heard people say he’d be good in the game but I don’t know if he has the popularity to get a spot. Thoughts? (playing him rn in 3s)

3145

At this point , his chances of making in the game depends on his Popularity imo since Ono said that they are heavily considering input from fans in terms of deciding the game’s roster ,

3146

He has to be in. The V-trigger system was practically made for him, or don’t you guys want to see what Oro is capable of with TWO ARMS?!

3147

Will that’s what I was kind asking about, I’m not really sure what his popularity level is. I’ve heard people say they’d like him in, but a lot say he might not very pretty bc he suffers from heavy 3s-weirdness…

(I might’ve messed up the quoting) but I agree, I think I’d be okay with Akuma not making it in if he does since he kinda fits the “super-strong-but-holds-back” thing. Plus itd vary up the roster and have interesting story implications (watching over ryu… Like akuma…)

3148

I think Capcom don’t listen about popularity for the first 16. Oro could be interesting as a character, but all depends (again) by the new game engine. Who cares about him if doesn’t fit well there? 3s characters seems hard to balance outside their game, they can be too strong (AE Yun) or too weak (Hugo). We’ll see.

3149

Well, Dudley,Ibuki,Makoto are okay though imo

3150

Ibuki work better here than 3s,Dudley receives a general buff on his normal to be good, but isn’t perfect and Makoto is just the sorry ass version of her 3s counterpart. Those 3 characters need an engine where they can keep their pressure (that’s the parry system goal),Ibuki works better than the other two because of her kunai setups on wakeup. We still know a little about v-trigger, that’s why I’m a bit doubtful about them making for the SFV sweet 16. As a Makoto player myself I can sustain stop playing her if she didn’t fit well in. If that the case, better don’t waste a spot and leave it for a well suited character instead.

3151

I know whose a well suited character for this game’s mechanics

DAN THE MAN

He could tap into his dad’s madskillz for his V-trigger

3152

No, Sagat needs to be in here. If only because Kazumi Mishima is stealing his Tiger Uppercut!

3153

Oh, nao that i think about it, Karin is 100% guaranteed to be in the roster if Capcom manages to sort out the rights and shit
Someone tweeted to Ono about Karin and he said he would tell SFV’s director about it , this happened a really while back

3154

what was the rights issue with Karen?

3155

I dunno if it’s necessarily an “issue”, because we don’t know if the creator of Karin specifically has declined use of her again.

Basically, Karin is not a Capcom original character. She was created for a comic centered around Sakura by artist Masahiko Nakahira, so her story [was] not originally canon. However, the catch is that Capcom did eventually hire Nakahira as an artist, soooo the guess is that Capcom has liberties to use her at will, all things considered. Unless, of course, Nakahira has refused, but I kinda don’t think that is the case. The whole “she wasn’t created by Capcom originally” is where the licensing rights become kinda foggy.

3156

If he’s in, Oro would probably be better off if his v-trigger was a version of Tengu Stone.

3157

I also think character X is guaranteed to be in the game based off of speculation Y.

18 more days until e3. :’(

3158

it sure hurts m8s

3159

Maybe they won’t even bring back Karin, maybe they’ll just make a whole new char based off of her and call her… Kallin?

3160

That logic also works for Rose. Her V-trigger could be Soul Illusion!
