There are some interesting bits of information on arcade mode that started finding their way to twitter and 4chan for characters like Lily, Marisa, Manon, and JP.
 
All I'm gonna say is keep your expectations low. No no, lower.

Wow....

That's a good thing. Makes it easier for completionist to platinum the game without grinding God knows how long in ranked. And frankly I never liked trophies that are tire to online because there are now hundreds of ps3 and 4 games where you can't collect everything due to shut down servers or dead playerbase 

He's talking about combos that only work in certain situations Ex: Hitting an opponent in a standing state vs crouching state
 
 

That wouldn't be cool at all, because it would just make JP the final boss of Fighting Layer...

JP is literally a media machine combined with unscrupulous 'philanthropists'
 
He claims to want to help developing nations but really just exploits them while controlling narrative surrounding them...and in doing so creates misery and social upheaval with the pain that follows all for no reason other than to consolidate his own power.
 
Bison used the iron fist, JP utilizes the soft power of social manipulation. He's exactly the sort of person I despise. At least Bison admits to what he is and will face people on that level. JP pretends to be benevolent when he's the worst kind of person possible. Great villain.

The more I learned about JP over these past 4 issues, the more he reminds me of a certain political destabilizer. At the risk of getting too far into real life matters, I won’t mention who it is. JP certainly isn’t a veritable madman but dang does he know how to con. Looking forward to understanding his reasons. I swear the first thing I’m doing when I pull up the game is fire up Arcade and go play as Ken and JP, finish the rest of the characters and play WTM. 

The top priority for Arcade Mode to me is:

1- JP
2- Ken
3- Chun-Li
4- Guile
5- Juri
6- Ryu (Bonus!)
 
(Already know Cammy)

Since Ken's name is cleared by the time the game starts I have to wonder what's his standing with his family is. Mel still believes him obviously but I want to know about Eliza. Why does he feel the need to stay away when he's been cleared of wrongdoing.

I’d like to go back to this point because when you really think about what you’re saying it’s kinda ignorant. 
 
You didn’t mention the writing in SF4 because why? Sure it’s animated, that’s great. Was the story a bit as interesting as this comic? Did it push any boundaries or take any risks with the characters involved? Did it have any lasting effect in the later game story?  
 
No, No, & No. Not to say it wasn’t decent at best but it didn’t really do anything to further the story. It played everything very safe and even the loses characters suffer were quickly wiped away without any lasting effects. The Juri anime at best pushed the envelope and had the established main characters involved  actually lose the day but at hardly any cost. 
 
Since Ken’s new redesign into Hobo Ken people have actually been invested on what actually happened to him to become that way. It’s such a drastic 360 on what we’re used to seeing from that character that people were interested in him again. The comic just added to that and now people have a reason to not like JP and he’s an established villain because of this. 
 
It’s like William Defoe’s Green Goblin in Spider-Man says. 
“But the one thing they love more than a hero is to see a hero fail, fall, die trying.”
 
In terms of the hero’s story this is completely true. People don’t want to see the hero always come out on top. They want the hero to be challenged and knocked down a few rungs and beat up because it makes their come back all the more worthwhile. 
 

JP gives me vibes very similar to Kanzaki Bison who was more of a shadow-broker and manipulator as his primary nature. If pressed, he could just back it all up (which it seems JP can as well). Less Saturday morning cartoon villain and more devious villain

I mentioned it to Misterbee. The issue is on Twitter's end. So hopefully they fix what they broke.

looks like vandame skin is something everyone wants for years now

Smasher detected.
Guys, hit him with the soap. If it burns him, we know he's a Smasher for sure! 😡

No let him!

So he knows the pain he inflicts on others with that damn dirty ape!!!

We can't let @EvilCanadiansee this.....too late
 

I meant the Ryu outfit. Wrote suit on accident. If you don't think that outfit doesn't look hard AF every time, Im about to start pulling receipts starting with the classic:
 

 
 

 

@SoneroI'd be stunned if SF6 doesn't sell well. The lead up to the game has been near perfect from a marketing stand point. The only bad things I can think of is the super brief initial teaser and the leak spoiling some info. Matsumoto and Nakayama have done a great job. They clearly care about the Street Fighter. That was readily apparent when they took over SFV near the end is even more the case now. Capcom gave two passionate developers near free reign to develop a big budget Street Fighter game and it shows. World Tour is practically a game in and of itself. One that, from what I've seen, teaches people how to play SF. I never thought I'd see the day when Capcom would put out a SF game that nails it for both the casual and hardcore audience. Even the Potato Station 4 Amateur and Potato Station 4 Professional versions have a rock a solid 60fps* experience  with surprisingly good, for PS4, load times.
 
*F's in the chat for the last gen World Tour Mode's 30fps

Dang I got so used to seeing Dee Jay with shades I actually got weirded out seeing his nostalgia costume 

Dee Jay!!
