The Street Fighter 3poxy Strike: Everybody at home but SF5 doesn't have Netcode

Falke is cute, but she comes off as an Injustice character in Street Fighter.

I don’t get it.

If Falke didn’t have a terrible default look and wasn’t tied so much to Ed, I probably would’ve liked her more. She’s not the worse but a giant ‘eh’ to me.

She’s got a sweet ass though.

you gotta admit, that face is freaky

Both Ed and her have horrible, horrible outfits.

It bothers me how her moveset is just so gimped though. It’s like she’s on a leash.

It doesn’t even make sense from a story perspective. They’re trying to get away from Bison and help those in need. So why look like Bison at worse or some offbrand nazis at best?

They could have done better in that regard. At least making Ed’s hoodie and Falke’s catsuit as defaults.

^ who would buy their default outfits then ?

I’ve been thinking…

The 30A discord has been really good for playing 3s and being able to chat and everything.

How do y’all feel about a match making discord? An official (as we can make it) discord for any official fighting games or platforms with netcode that is for people on here to organize games in?

I was holding off on that because I didn’t want to clutter the thread with story ramblings again.

But seriously tho, what is up with that? You’d expect Ed to try and dissociate himself from Shadaloo to weaken Bison’s influence over him and his crew.

Instead, he goes for a tacky commander motif and names his organization Neo-Shadaloo.

Dafuq?

We can just expand on it. Sure, it’s full of 3S people because most of us are playing that, but we could make an Anime channel and let that crew in. Pertho gets the final call on this though.

Btw, no ded games, so no SFV and Alpha 3. :upside_down_face:

Truth be told, the only real draw of Discord in this case is voice chat, because besides that, we just keep posting here as usual.

Since Bison is destroyed and the story of neo-shadaloo mostly takes place before SFV cinematic mode.

I do want all the other connection of psycho power(except Bison and Seth) gone so everyone got freed from brainwashing and loses memory/gains amnesia from the events that they were under controlled like Cammy in the cartoons. So after they are freed they returned back to their families and normal lives.

Closing the shadaloo arc properly for most of those that weren’t gonna show up in SF3 story.

This conclude stories also for T-hawk, The bunch of Dolls and Neo Shadaloo. Instead of them being instantly sucked in a blackhole and never seen again.

Except Cammy that continued fighting under the Delta Red Group. Since she was already freed by Dhalsim a long time ago.

Kinda crazy they added pretty much all from Final Fight but nobody from Delta Red as playable characters.

Nope!

Everything about neo-shad is after ASF and seems to lead into 6. Whether or not that’ll happen before or after SF3 in the timeline is up in the air.

Yes I remember, they just should have let those guys live normal lives again, Since no one mentioned them in SF3 as if they never existed, but it looks like a choice of them to continue.

I was looking at Juri’s win quote vs Seth and Seths win quote vs Juri.

Juri to Seth " haha look at you ,nothing but a pile of scrap"
Seth to Juri " you will work for me and only me" ( possibly implying her connection with Kolin and Illuminati )

So Juri is taunting Seth and Seth wants her to work for him ( still ) , so what changed lol. It’s the same thing as in SF4. Are…are these guys back as a team in SF6 ?

Would benefit Juri as Seth clearly knows how to build good eyes lol !

Or maybe no one mentioned them in SF3 since they didn’t exist yet?
SF3 came out when? 1997?
Capcom was sure at that point that SFIV would never be a thing, let alone a reboot.

They had so many ways to make one streamlined story for everyone to understand.
They decided to not do that and instead add a lot of things, that get retconned and non-canoniced 2 weeks after they came out as “the official canon”.

The story issue goes deeper than their outfit design. If they are trying to get away from Bison and help those in need, then why are they calling themselves Neo-Shadaloo?

As for the uniforms themselves, Falke’s design is okay. Ed’s uniform is a trainwreck, with its silly tiny hat (and the hat’s equally silly side brim) and its silly giant shoulder guard half-cape whatever that is. Ed’s Battle Outfit looks even more like Bison, but is still a much better design for Ed than his main costume.

As for Falke’s catsuit, it looks way too much like a Catwoman outfit. Doctrine_Dark has already said she comes off too much like an Injustice character…
