Well she is staying true to her Roman/Greek heritage who had more relaxed views on bisexuality than the Judeo-Christians that came after.

 

We truly are in the Capgod era again. 

I have to apologize to Capcom. I thought they were going to beat around the bush when it came to this aspect of her character but ain't it. They are going all in. They need to do this more often

@ShockDingo Never give up!

I'm still waiting to add the shit i did during the demo days, so far i'm just WTM mid run trying to collect as many clothes/moves as possible

 

Then i will pass a day importing all characters in a single save data session lol

 

This will be my Q

https://i.ibb.co/0VvxhF1/Q.gif

 

Moveset will probably go like

 

Basic Moveset: Marisa (waiting G)

 

Moveset will probably be a mix of Marisa, Luke and Blanka (wild hunt), will have to find a way get moves without overlap commands

 

Super Arts:

Lv1 Marisa

Lv2 Luke

Lv3 Marisa

It's funny because he hit the softest ground ball he could then stretced to reach first base but even so he's going easy on the other team. I think it would have been way easier for Sin to just teleport around all the bases to get a homerun of course you couldn't show that in one frame of artwork easily

@DaemosI didn't think of the prototype ED angle. Good catch man. They do seem like they could fit him. I know there are like a half dozen or so specials that aren't from the current cast out side of character I mentioned in the spoilers. Off the top of my head it's these moves

 

Knife Toss

Air Knife Toss

Molotov Cocktail Toss

Airplane Spin Body Slam 

Shoulder Charge

Missile Dropkick 

Aerial Leg Drop

Rising Flying Kick

"Cross Counter" Uppercut

Counter Front Kick (Animation is different than Marisa's Qadriga)

 

Edit: More than half dozen, looks to be about 10. Did I miss any....besides the moves for the character I won't mention for spoiler reasons.

Carlos' sword slash is sick as hell.  Also annoying as hell to fight against.

How the hell did I forget that one, especially with me dropping a few rounds to him purely because of it. Okay that makes 11 moves now. Anymore left to make a dozen?

 

Edit: Side note Rant, the good and the bad of the custom character situation. The custom move sets are large but more restrictive than I thought. I thought the limit would be identical inputs but it's identical motions. So a QCF+P move locks you out off adding a QCF+K move. The way it allows you save different looks means that you only need to grind World Tour once. You can buy all the all costumes pieces unlock all them and save the character lock you want. It even lets you name the file. The Rogue I created in the demo transferred over and I save it before creating Gouka. Also I don't like the costume piece color system. You can just select color. You dyes and unless I missed something there are only four color options. I wanted to make Gouka where brown but I ended give her a red gi top and blue gi bottom. I would have went all blue but the bluish top is a different shade and the fact that it didn't match was driving me bunkers.

Cody being the mayor it makes sense why he isn't easily accessible. Lucia is a beat cop. I figure she would be at one of the police check points

Maybe she's in his personal guard, yeah it's reach but I'm trying to help them out here.

 

Edit: I need to start working on my Dhalsim mastery so I can get Gouka an air fireball.

Still playing through World Tour Mode and avoiding spoilers so I haven't been in the thread much over the flurry of activity but I just gotta say that Capcom has absolutely knocked it out of the park with this game. The amount of character and personality in the SF-world cast is absolutely amazing. Game even had me cracking up a lot with the text messages (Ryu in particular is hilarious)

 

Sincerely,

Ryu

Tweets aren't embedding properly for some reason 😅. But, anyway, Gief pulling a submarine makes Street Fighter vs Marvel Superheroes make a lot more sense now.

 

https://twitter.com/TheSlickTony/status/1665905666194587648?t=TGdSPcWlT6pBF8JCZ1mF3w&s=19

 That's very cool

 

I know he had tons of great feats in SFV but these imho pale in comparision of Birdie throwing a fucking train out of rails back in Alpha days

 

Well Gief had a the cossack dance train pulling

but still not the same

 

But now, pulling a gigantic submarine, and more than that, pulling a gigantic submarine THROUGH SOLID ICE BREAKING WHOLE AREA?

I'm satisfied 😆

Regarding Bosch and his secret backers/People who may have hired Juri

Spoiler

"It" being Shadaloo


Curious to see what exactly is there motivation. Going after JP may be interpreted as them being anti-heroes. I'm glad Capcom haven't completely forgotten about SF5's plot setups at least.

We'll find out soon enough.

Edit-

Also both Retsu and who could be interpreted as Geki 2 can be seen standing side by side as finalists in the 5th Suval'hal Tournament.

Yeah I know, I didn't want to mention him for potential spoiler reasons.

 

Spoiler

He has Bosch's move set. IMO he's the hardest of the unique fighters. Sorry Sheng Long. Also, one of the characters that uses Lily's move set may be the personification of her wind spirit. I can't remember her name but she wasn't human by the dialog you have with her and she had wings IIRC.

Also, I noticed two other moves I forget when playing yesterday. 

 

Jumping Front Kick

Charging Jump Double Axe Handle Blow

 

You can craft a couple of unique characters with these moves.

Interestingly, he says that if we meet again he will reveal his final form. So maybe there's more to him in later seasons.

I haven't seen the Lily Wind Angel. Where is she?

What do you guys think the two new stages are gonna be?

My guesses are they will give Rashid a new stage for WTM (for Middle Eastern representation), and the other stage will be either be Neo-Shadaloo (Germany) or Akuma.

Alternatively, they could give Akuma a dark and stormy version of Ryu's stage or some cave in Nayshall. Maybe during the day he is a street vendor there but at night you can find him in a cave for training.

It annoys me that doing their quests doesn't unlock their special moves.

Rashid is the obvious one.

For AKI, we already have Chinatown.  For Akuma we already have Japan.

That leaves Ed with either Germany, or a Neo Shadaloo base.

For the hypothetical Neo-Shadaloo base stage, I hope the rest of Ed's side show freaks are relegated to NPCs on the stage that you can get to know.

 

Don't need them to take up space on the character select screen for at least the next 4 seasons.

@ShakunetsuNo I think SiRN are their own thing. But have developed robot fighters that we see towards the end of their chapter. They look like monitor cyborgs so they could be related to Seth. Needs more investigation.

Another aspect of JP’s character that I like. 
 

IMG_3194.gif

 

This is his animation when he loses to timeout. After expressing some shock, he claps for the opponent. I would think this is sarcastic or he’s trying to save face, but this is his low health round win.

 

IMG_3196.gif

 

“Very good. Very good indeed.”

 

He compliments his enemy. In fact, it’s the only time he isn’t dismissive when he wins a round. This combined with his timeout animation tells me that JP likes to be challenged, showing more interest in a person the closer he is brought to the brink. It’s probably why he shows interest in the CAC. Because they defeated him cleanly, JP finds them interesting enough to teach them.

Like, Sodom's truck is a shop in this game.  Why would you have that in the game, and not have Sodom himself AT the shop, unless you were planning something for him later.  I wouldn't be at all surprised if Sodom was planned for a later season, and then his master area is just the lot behind his truck.

Someone at the SF subreddit pointed out that the guy who is at Sodom’s truck could be Sodom. This is what you get when you speak to a NPC close to it.

As I think I remember the devs saying that national variety is quite an important point for the game, I’d predict the following: 

 

Rashid - Saudi Arabia. His desert palace (maybe a beautifully tiled inner courtyard with palms and fountains with Azam watching) Either that, or something super hi tech, like the top of a skyscraper or a super-yacht. They may even place him somewhere like Monaco, alternatively. 
 

AKI - China. Pretty sure she’ll be on the existing China stage, though maybe it’ll be deserted or in a different lighting / colouring.

 

Ed - Germany. A castle that acts as NeoShadaloo’s HQ. Or a German Bierkeller (remember they’re leaning further into national stereotypes than ever!) 

 

Akuma - Japan. Pretty sure he’ll have Genbu, but reskinned for nighttime.

Sagat/Adon - Muay thai moveset and gears

Dudley/Balrog - Boxing moveset

 

I would be more than fine with Adon and Dudley replacing Sagat and Balrog in this game

- Ninja village with Ibuki with a cameo by Geki or Geki 2 would be great.

 

- Rose + Tarot card minigame in her Italian abode. We can see cameos by Menat/Maggio etc.

 

- If Capcom can pull off a tasteful Kenyan locale for Elena, I'd also be down for that. It'd be like learning stuff from a different culture and we get meet some of her tribesmen.

 

Yes to all of these, please

I totally agree, she is totally rocking that casual outfit and I'd love to see it as a DLC costume for her

Cody,Guy,Maki and Lucia have all been given the SF treatment so that leaves out Haggar,Dean and Carlos. Anyone of these characters would be a welcome addition to the cast ,each boasting modified designs and  movelists.  Win win in my book!!

 

I dont think Maki really counts. She was basically copy/pasted from CvS2 onto a port of A3 that barely anyone had access to...

I still want her to make an appearance in an official mainstream SF title, and there is demand for it too

  Reveal hidden contents

SPOILER_IMG_3217.webp
 

 

 

 

But them confirming Sodom is the owner of... Sodom's truck/business, is not surpring tbh

Gomorrah could be simply his #2 and most loyal employee, keeping business going on while Sodom is away

 

We have similar case for Abigail's workshop, some minion clearly say Abigail is the owner but that at the moment is not there

 

Another point for believe they're likely two different people is a possible little wink at SF2V anime, where there was two villains called... Sodom & Gomorrah 😄

These are indeed the most logical options

 

Rashid alone will bring whole middle east representation in SF6

 

Ed definitely deserve a NeoShadaloo stage, plus Germany would be unique in current options

 

 

A bit a deviation, but i find kinda sad some chars did'nt got the stage where they could have got a strong theme... talking just to parts i reached in WT

 

Ken -> could have got the worksitem kinda like this

http://iplaywinner.com/picture/super-sf4-newstages-42.jpg?pictureId=3992173&asGalleryImage=true

 

Honda -> the sumo restaurant is perfect they would need to polish it a bit but would be great theme for him

 

Luke-> i consider MMA  cage his stage, butthe Buckler gym would be even more loyal to his concept
