Yeah, that version is sick.
That’s one of my favourite tracks in Final Fight, along with The Bay Area theme.
The music when you fight Rolento is good too.
They had so many tracks to choose from and they use the one that’s already been taken as Guy’s theme.
Pipe weilding normal attacks are beautiful; they have range! Haggar now has 'Gief’s VS up-toss throw from past games, the dash grabs look faster than what Red Cyclone had AND looks like he has set ups from it.
An invulnerable attack than can actually stop rushdowns and help set up combos and supers for less than probable chip damage? Sign me up.
Haggar/Spencer/Cap America to start for me. Shield throw and Arm Pull assists should help close gaps for Haggar. It’s going to be fun. :wgrin:
The Phoenix thread was way ahead of this one in activity, but things are getting closer. Forced unnecessary thread rivalry GO GO GO
Anyway, Haggar’s gonna be on my secondary team along with Shuma and M.O.D.O.K. They won’t work well together but I don’t give a fuck.
Throws into Doom rocks?
it’s going to be fun using the mayor of Metro City!
After watching the vid again, his backdrop air throw did huuuuuggeeeeeee damage against Magneto. It did almost as much as a super. I don’t know if that’s mainly because the air throw is that strong, or Magneto has low stamina?
Probably a combination of both. His regular piledriver did like half that much on a different character, so while I think part of it is due to Mag’s low health, I don’t think it’d make THAT much of a difference.

Haggar stuff starts around 2:15.
Piledriver damage is super meh. Unless it has insane range or offers a combo opportunity, I’m really wondering why the damage is so low.
Gut-punch super looks mashable.
Running grab has a big hitbox. On an airborne, Haggar combo’d jab into grab.
Yeah, I’m thinking Gut Punch super is a definite masher. Does like 30 hits in the reveal trailer then like 10 in that video.
Yeah I was thinking that he mashed it in the reveal trailer as well, since after the super was over he did a standing C, which had no chance of doing additional damage. I thought “why the hell would he be mashing a random button after the super was over…ooooooooohhhhhhhh”
Oh god I suck at mashing like that :[
I wonder if one of his alternates will be red spandex and chest hair O_O

Not a true versus gameplay, but more of some minor combo / moveset exhibition. Nearly identical to vid EC posted above (uses some of the same clips, but no Seth or Sessler talking. It’s all gameplay).
Wow, I’m calling it. Piledriver is the worst move in the game. No range. No damage.
And Haggar doesn’t have the ridiculous recovery time on whiffed light attacks like Thor.
As long as his backdrop is good that’s not so bad. Will be good for trolling I suppose.
yea uuuhhhhhh what I don’t get is that it seems to do comparable damage to Thor’s command grab, but at least Thor can combo after his. Doesn’t look like Haggar can combo after his unless he can do some OTG stuff. I hope he can do some OTG stuff…
I guess Haggar’s Crack Fist super is mashable. In his reveal he got about 30 hits, against Magneto in the new footage he got only about 15.
Body slam super?
That would be my first guess, but IMHO he really needs to OTG with some non-super options as well if his throw is gonna do so little damage.
Yeah, the reason why Thor’s grab isn’t “bad” per se is because it’s basically a 60+% grab. I can sorta understand gimping its range.
But Haggar’s? Maybe that goofy-looking low dropkick can OTG, then combo into super, but I doubt it.
