The Ultra Inevitable Street Fighter V Story Thread

I stand corrected!

I don’t know this guy, but seems closer to the sprites in the encyclopedia.

I don’t like how they played it too safe in these. Was it that hard to say that Nash was having the upper hand against Bison until the chopper appeared? Also, I always thought the pilot was a US soldier working for Bison, not a Shadaloo agent. The former is a better way to show Shadaloo and Bison’s influence and infiltration skills. Are these going to be canon by any chance?

Also, FANG hates numbers 1 and 3? LOL. Bison is number 1, so he’s supposed to hate him by that logic. Besides, 2 only exists because it’s between 1 and 3. Stupid.

Could you guys see Chun Li in a Kitana skin? Ryu in a Sub-Zero skin?

Because it wouldn’t be true. Bison was waiting for the chopper just as much as Nash to show him the truth and savor the moment.

That’s what Shadaloo “infiltration” agent means. Read it again.

I love the layout, the colors choice, overall looks awesome.
The sprite addition is stylish af

The image selection ruin it for me though, why don’t use official capcom art rather than go silly udon vibe?

Overall still positive result :+1:

This is a debate that can go on forever with the fundamentalist crowd, but i ever thought too that Capcom wanted to show that as “pure fighter” talent Nash can get the upper hand… In ASF he put Bison on his knee too at the end
What took the w away from him is the machine recharging Bison’s health like nothing happened, while Nash’s vital energy literally relied on a battery

A bit OT but one of most physically (and even more mentally) demanding sparring training Is when you stay in the ring and opponents cycle turns, so each round you’re more tired but the opponents is ever fresh (and goes all in as he need to last just 180 sec round)
Knowing how much capcom love/know martial arts/fight sport culture, i’m sure they know what kind of huge handicap they gave to Nash

Legit chance Nash at his peak Is still best USA fighter, only possible alternative being SF3 Ken or Cody

I think both ways Is same thing

Either a shadaloo infiltrate or a corrupt usa soldier (Bison likely had many of both), the important point was that Nash rightfully did’nt trusted usa army anymore

Not necessarily, an infiltrated agent is someone working for Shadaloo entering the army, one way or another, then acting against the army.

A US soldier working for Bison might be someone that started as a loyal soldier and was later corrupted by Bison.
This option is worse because of corruption, disloyalty and because it means anyone can be secretly a traitor.

Alpha3 made it abundantly clear that members of the US government were compromised and taking orders from Shadaloo. This encyclopedia is second to the source material.

They just announced Season 5 of SFV. Zero chances of SFVI.

Season 5, you mean.

S1: Alex, Guile, Ibuki, Balrog, Juri, Urien
S2: Akuma, Kolin, Ed, Abigail, Menat, Zeku
S3: Sakura, Blanka, Falke, Cody, G, Sagat
S4: Kage, Honda, Lucia, Poison, Gill, Seth

Right.

Yes, there are important differences between whether the pilot is a Shadaloo infiltration agent or a regular soldier. The pilot being an infiltrator is honestly less impressive.

Im suspecting to be byron, when some preview of the cinematic mode was shown, but later it wasn’t when it came out. I believe he was intended for a major role.

He had been more better if he was there inflitrating shadaloo than the role of Abel that is lack luster.

I think those tarot cards are significant so Im banking on those being the final 5.
Not 100% who I would pick but very happy if thats what we get.
Especially since Rose Elena and Viper were absolutely butchered in their SF4 models. They were hideous.

If its not the tarot 5 or a subset of them then Makoto, Dudley, Sodom and Fei Long could sub any of those characters. Its a good opportunity for this game to really go out on a high note and get one more batch of fan favourites in the game.
Adding a new character wouldnt be a good idea in this last season imo.

Wary that we might get low effort characters like Byron, Azam, Decapre etc. I would be pretty bummed in this case but it also seems silly if we never get Decapre on the roster. If they give us any of those characters they can make it all worth it by finally adding in Motherfuckin’ Mike Haggar!

Guys, who do you think has the bigger ego? Bison or Urien?

Bison have bigger ego, Urien suffer an extreme case of inferiority complex lol

Gill, Akuma are even worse though. G follow them

Ok, dudes, here goes my wishlist/vision for Street Fighter VI plot and roster.

First of all, my predictions for SFV final season:
STREET FIGHTER V SEASON 5 DLC CHARACTERS

  1. Sodom
  2. Rose
  3. Oro
  4. C. Viper
  5. [NEW CHARACTER]

(Provided that these are the final characters for SFV, here goes my vision and roster for SFVI):

STREET FIGHTER VI

IMO, it should take place after Street Fighter III, solving its plots and also resume the storylines set up by SFV’s (like G and Neo Shadaloo as new forces to reckon with).

I think this could be done by three different chapters of a cinematic story mode, that will be released gradually.

FIRST STORYLINE (ILLUMINATI VS WORLD ORDER)
This story sees G’s new World Order fighting the Illuminatis. It’s a return of the Street Fighter III main roster, with some new playable key players involved like Kolin, Q and G.

LAUNCH ROSTER

  1. Ryu
  2. Ken
  3. Chun-Li
  4. Alex
  5. Sean

  10. Oro
  11. Yun

    X. Ed [NEW POWERED UP FORM - NEW UNPLAYABLE FINAL BOSS]

THIRD STORYLINE - WORLD AT WAR
Now we see Illuminatis, G’s World Order, Neo Shadaloo, and some other forces are involved into the mix (such as old Alpha people, the Final Fight crew and the Mad Gear), becoming a world war assault.

  • It’s time for Necro to go to stardom; so, no Dhalsim
  • I’d want Haggar replacing Zangief, for once.
  • Sagat and Adon are cool, but a successor would be awesome
  • Gen’s like 200 years old and he’s died twice. An apprentice would be a cool addition, just like Rose had Menat.
  • Bison’s spirit may live on Ed.
