The Inevitable Street Fighter V Story Thread: ARCADE EDITION!

https://scontent.fmnl4-5.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t31.0-8/fr/cp0/e15/q65/22051255_10155834863452147_1846997577974570079_o.jpg?efg=eyJpIjoidCJ9&oh=97e39731cc46889126156b881f2c8eb5&oe=5A426B15

Agree with daemos or just it’s like Capcom does not want people to anticipate for Gill anymore.

Either to surprise us with a different Gill or just don’t hope for Gill.

I hope that Urien Alt has different voice sample and projectile effects.

Having Urien Gill alt shoot Fireballs instead of lightingning balls seems would work.

While his reflector would be icy.

New costumes for Chun-Li? Wait… THREE new costumes for Chun-Li??? YES! YES!!! A THOUSAND TIMES YESSSSSSSSSSSS!!!
My baby! Looking smoking hot as usual!!!
TAKE MY FREAKING MONEY CAPCOM!!!

*Chun-Li has three new costumes for all walks of life designed by Akiman. As an INTERPOL agent, Chun-Li often finds herself going undercover to take down Shadaloo.
*

*When Chun-Li has time for a vacation, you may see her in this relaxing outfit. Don’t let the flip flops fool you, her lightning legs are still as deadly as ever.
*

*Though she spends most of her time keeping the peace, even Chun-Li needs sleep to recover for the tough trials to come. Bring her sleepwear into battle to become your opponent’s worst nightmare.
*

An Undercover Interpol outfit for Chun-Li was something Chun-Li needed for a long time. I always figured her Battle dress costume would be a great undercover costume for “formal” events. But this one makes Chun-Li look like an absolute badass! The leather jacket with the tight pants and hair tied back in a ponytail are absolutely awesome! You boys just try to mess with her in a back alley. I dare you!!!

Let me refer to an old post

I am going to use this costume from now on when I play online. This swimsuit costume just looks better and more relaxing than her other one. I did have to dock .25 points for the dress wrap and another .25 for her wearing sandals instead of going bare footed. But even still, Chun-Li looks simply stunning, absolutely divine, and no matter what the weather is, I’m always ready for some fun with Chun in the sun.

Finally, her sleep wear costume just feels a little awkward. It feels they were trying to combine “sleepware” with Hooters waitress. I don’t know. I thought if they wanted to go sleepware, go for a nostalgic SFII Animated Movie sleep gown. But Chun-Li looks gorgeous in it. I’ll purchase it anyways, but I honestly believe this costume might be her second or third worst costume that she has this game. (worst being the skank Red Bull one. But oh my god, don’t get me started on the SFIV costumes)

I’m glad we’re getting more costumes and a new stage (that I will post later), but a single post must be dedicated to the queen. All marvel at her divine beauty, and bow down to your queen of Street Fighter.

Also, I just noticed this Menat costume replaces her crystal ball with a book. Interesting.

Wait did they just retcon Shadaloo Cammy appearance?

Summer may be over, but there’s plenty of ways to welcome in fall. From new school and Halloween costumes, to a majestic English Manor, check out the new content that will be available in Street Fighter V on September 26.

It’s back to school season and the start of a new academic year. Cammy, Menat, and Ed are prepared to walk the school grounds in their scholarly attire – hopefully, not looking for too much of a fight. Let these costumes remind you to always stay in school!

Cammy also has two additional costumes from her past that will be available for purchase. The Dolls Costume harkens back to her days as one of the brainwashed bodyguards for M. Bison, a point in time Cammy has battled with since she broke free from his control.

The Nostalgia Costume was Cammy’s alternate outfit from Street Fighter IV, and is now being brought over into Street Fighter V. Just in time for the cold weather to begin!

The spookiest month of them all is upon us, which means more Halloween Costumes to bring in the fright for Dhalsim, M. Bison, Urien, Birdie, and F.A.N.G! We’ve got a mummy, a demon, a sibling doppelganger (for all you Gill fans), a butcher, and a mad scientist to make your opponent cower in fear.

2016 Halloween Costume Bundle - If you missed last year’s Halloween Costumes, they’re back again this year with the option to buy them all in one bundle! Last year’s costumes consisted of Alex, Cammy, Nash, Necalli, Juri, Ryu, and Vega. All of these can also be purchased individually. The Spooky Arena stage is included in the bundle, as well!

New Stage: English Manor - This castle overlooks a sweeping landscape with the Northern Lights hovering up above. It’ll take all your willpower to not be distracted by the beauty of this picturesque stage. You can purchase the English Manor with 70,000 Fight Money or $3.99/ €3.99.
**
Background Music Packs** – These packs will add a personal touch to every battle, especially since music can change how you approach each fight. If you’re feeling nostalgic, there’s a Street Fighter II version available!

You can pick up the new costumes on PlayStation 4 and Steam for $3.99/ €3.99 each starting on September 26.

They did not retcon Cammy’s appearance.

Ed looks a little like Roy Bromwell with that outfit.

I hope the rumored “Arcade Edition” won’t include the alternate costumes; aside from the nostalgia costumes, as well Menat’s mummy costume, they suck.

You know what I hate the most? When the game FORCES you to play with the alternate costumes. i. e. when in the “Random” slot. That shit must stop.

What? A F.A.N.G costume?
Nah, that’s ridiculous, this is probably just some fake rumor-

Wow. That’s actually a surpr-

Wait, what the hell is going o-

I’m not even-

Cammy’s stage and the classic music packs are great.

RIP Gill ever being in SFV as DLC. Sick costume though.

Gill was just a tie-in foreshadowing for Street Fighter III.

I never expected him to be playable.

ALL MY CHARACTERS GOT COSTUMES HNNG

Giving Urien a Gill costume is like the most stupid idea ever. It’s like giving Ryu Ken’s costume and not put him in the game. Another misstep. I don’t even care at this point, though.

I can’t unsee that now, I’m imagining him fighting someone in a climatic battle (Q, with Oro hitting on femme cultists in the background) and Kolin walks by in her beachwear for some reason.


Friggin’ finally Birdie’s getting a new costume!

The Gill slight update looks rather good, is it just me or does he have markings on his feet and hands now? If he ever makes it into the game, imagine the “shimmering” effect will be used to set him apart from Urien, heck, I’m even expecting a slightly different, more Messiah-like stance.

E-english Manor stage?! Oh…oh my, I don’t know how I’ll react to seeing Cammy’s SSF2 stage in 3d…I may cry

I’m REALLY digging the interpol look for Chun Li. I may actually buy that one.

Menat’s school alt looks great too!

I wanna hear the samples of the music pack. Interesting that now they’re really offering some really, really new stuff. Makes me wonder if they’re testing the waters with the music pack for other customizable feature packs, I expect weather cycles eventually.

It’s not a misstep if they have ZERO intention of adding Gill to the playable roster. It’s actually good marketing if this was the case.

Depends. It’s the same outfit just with a jacket(removable with code maybe?) over it because censorship.

The misstep IS not adding Gill to the playable roster. How can anyone who cares for the story of the series not want Gill to be added to the game as a plot device, but rather feel content with him being reduced to a mere costume?

Maybe they’re not planning on the story going that far yet. Maybe they’re saving him for SF6

He was all but confirmed until now. Everything in the story was pointing at his emergence. He didn’t have to do anything radical, etiher. Just show himself and wander around gathering people for his organization or something.
