I wouldn't mind Daigo being the last SFV character but jeah as others have said I'd imagine any models of him found are for Akira's super or whatever. He's a cool as hell character tho, the dude radiates big dick energy

edit-whoops I thought this was SFV general discussion

Man remember when NRS games were notorious for their ugly ass faces? They've come a long way. Who woulda thought the secret was to ctrl+C>ctrl+X already hot people onto 3d models. Whatever doesn't matter to me, people like me who like to play on both teams win out in the end.

I would pay to have Sheeva's face model just to glare at me

I like her MKX voice actress best

Jeah, its hard to top Tricia Helfer. She brought a lot of raw authority and general badassery to Sonya. Rousey never really stood a chance, I think NRS's biggest mistake was not bringing her back for MK11. Well that and continuing to treat Kotal like trash in the story mode

Rousey definitely ain't the best voice actor but she has improved a bit for the newer voicelines for the newer characters. She went from wooden robot to... almost kinda sorta halfway decent. And that counts for something.

Can't say I've ever really cared about the story mode in a fighting game but I'm madddddd curious as to why Faust went all Silent Hill in Strive. I know OG Doctor Baldhead was a serial killer but I dunno, this even seems different than that. 

Maybe if Chun showed the same ferocity here she wouldn't have lost to XSK Samurai today 👀

That instant overhead hitting Chun is some nonsense. Zeku can't do st.mp, st.mp as a blockstring on crouching Chun but Akuma can do that. Not fair.

Heh, it's alllllllllllllllllllllllllways about what Zeku can and cannot do with you, isn't it? The future is Chun, old man!

Chun li in Grand Finals... did I go back in time to season 1?!

Snake Eyez making Kage look S tier, damn. Although CCH played a mean Seth.

Man the character variety of the CPT event was great, that was fun to watch.

Yup. Honda is S tier, Juri is overpowered and Karin sucks. Very fun top 16

Also, what does that S+HS mechanic do? Is it like a parry or universal armoured attack or something?

When you tap it it's more like a counter. 5S+HS will counter mids and 2S+HS will counter lows and when it goes off the opponent will be vulnerable for a few frames. If you hold S+HS it pretty much becomes a SFIV Focus Attack that puts your opponent in a crumple state.

I wish Kum was more popular. They’re easily my favourite character in the game, but I doubt they’ll make it in Strive.

Well you never know, I thought the same about Anji and he made the base roster so anything is possible. Btw were you guys playing Rev2 on Steam?

Those dudes light cigarrettes and all sorts of shit while getting comboed. Its kinda hilarious TBH.

Jeah I think I remember seeing one dude leave the station to get a soda from the Arcade's vending machine or w/e lol. 

I often wonder what it must've felt like to be on the receiving end of your average basketball infinite in Hokuto no Ken. No one would endure that without a love for the game, that's for sure

Man If that Zeku sweep had been a  Crush Counter hit we coulda had almost all of SFV summarized in one 5 second video

Bad Boxart Megaman was great. I still can't believe the negative reception he got. Plus, from his arcade intro we also got Cougar Roll, which is a combination of words I never thought I'd say or vibe with.

Honestly anything is possible at this point. I thought for sure Gill and Seth wouldn't be coming to SFV and look at me now

You guys really think they'd announce a SF Vy that early, huh? I guess I'd figured they'd cool down a bit after the game's final season, y'know? Let it settle before announcing a whole new game. 

Ahh so SFVI really is gonna be a thing, huh? That's pretty neat. Probably be a long ass time before we see anything from it I'd guess. 

Plentyyyyyyyyy o' time to implement a rollback netcode infrastructure, just sayin'

Sorry guys... 

 

That was never supposed to happen. 

We're just pulling your dick, brother. I really don't think it was that big of a deal we've all done it lol

GreatDarkHero so passionate about the subject matter he decided to post his thoughts seven times. Now that is commitment
