The Inevitable Street Fighter V Story Thread: ARCADE EDITION!

I agree this might be the case. As for why, obviously, Guile offered to help him to keep an eye on him for Bison(or at least, that’s the story he’ll be fed).

Laura snub.

Arts great though.

Laura has no plot and thus was not posted in this thread

It’s…insane how much better that art and character design work is than what we’ve been getting from Capcom :weary:

This guy might actually be one of Guile’s superior officers according to the site

ガイルが所属する空軍の基地だ。 同僚や上司がバトルを見守っているぞ!

What if he turns out to be the one working for Bison? He’ll be sandwiched by Nash and Guile!

SF5 characters as SF3 style sprites.

I like Bison costume design in SF5 he got one of the best redesigns. I even like his story costume. so while the character designs look great I wish that this SFVxGrandblue used Bison SF5 costume design.

What you’re describing as “started out” and “later revealed” happened within one and the same game which was even his debut game. So, this isn’t really character development. Unless you count the in-universe development from day 1 of the tournament to the tournament finals. But I guess this wasn’t the intention here.

I once heard about this as well. What’s the exact wording?

If that’s correct, then it’s funny again how this is not reflected in the game at all.

Also, in how far is Gamest authoritative? Maybe it’s just one of those magazines where the writers make stuff up as they please?
Like in EGM where they claimed that Guile fought in Vietnam.
Or the German Club Nintendo magazine that claimed that Vega wears his mask even in bed, that Blanka survived the plane crash with horrible burns, that Sagat was champion until he got defeated by Bison and that nobody has ever heard Bison speaking a single word.

So, it looks like they changed the plane on Guile’s stage for a fictional one, just like in SSFIIXHDR?

Also, maybe offtopic: Maou at mmcafe linked a tweet by Akiman and suggested that it was a funny/interesting tidbit about Chun Li’s attire and it piqued my curiosity. Could someone translate, please? Google translate hasn’t been too helpful.

I guess he means the perception as you play the game and you know nothing about the character, or during development of the game. It’s funny how little we knew in SF2 just from playing the game, specially if we didn’t pay much attention. Some casual SF fans just discovered now that Chun Li is a police officer, thanks to the prologue and alt outfit in SF5, even though it was mentioned already in SF4 and many other games before.

But that’s something completely different. That’s not character development in the same way as “Ken went from a headswap of Ryu to a completely distinct character”.

Those are @MilesRiey sprites. He posts here. Awesome work

Rofl…this was pretty funny once I got the meaning of it.

Halfback isn’t referring to a football or rugby player, it’s referring to a style of underwear equivalent to a thong.

Poor wording on my part, sorry

How do people not know that about Chun-Li? She’s works for Interpol gawddammit. Hell, in her SSFIV ending, she says “That’s why I’ve decided to keep being a cop for now.”

And most of her win quotes from previous SF games have something to do with her placing people under arrest or that she works as a cop

So Guile’s story costume is indeed his classic one, which means we won’t get much, if any, info in Guile’s prologue concerning their likely confrontation shown in Nash’s prologue.

Who called this again? Lord_Vega?

As expected

Now as premium i think we will see some special ops outfit in line with Premium Nash one (he had 2 like that in SF4)

I still hope they will surprise me with Premium btw

Btw this pic

Make me think that the black dude seen in cinematic trailer may be an Illuminati, who is using Guile mission against Bison to infiltrate/sabotate/steal from Shadaloo HQ

It made sense after all, steal theyr cool shit before destruction > destruction

Maybe the whole Urien’s project (Necro/Twelve/clones) started from Shadaloo stealed datas/testing/researchs

GUILE wins: “Nash… what on Earth happened to you?”

NASH wins: “I have nothing left to say to you.”

That’s just an explosive warning sign.

You can’t excape Chun Li’s buttocks of steel!
