SF4 Championship Edition all but officially confirmed

Posted by Muffin Man on June 19, 2009 at 1:44 p.m. #1

I really want to see how the storyline will go considering there's a high chance Ibuki (a Street Fighter III character) will be in the sequel. While we're on the topic of characters I would rather have Adon and Yun & Yang come back than either Ibuki or Cody. In fact, there's a lot of Street Fighter III characters I'd rather have like Oro, Q, and Dudley, but Ibuki's still cool.

who likes karin ? they should add the two missing sf2 ce char and 2 sf3 char.Urien and makoto would be awesome

Posted by I want to Fxxx Karin on June 19, 2009 at 1:57 p.m. #3

They have to release more infos soon to let the sf-hype alive. and i want NEW characters! no comic-style, more hero guys like kyo or terry bogard from kof, maybe 0815 for some people but i like it! maybe rufus is effective but his design isnt good imo for example

Posted by stubbs on June 19, 2009 at 1:58 p.m. #4

I'll be happy if there's at least 4 new characters.

6+ would be awesome, as long as they balance them correctly. Hopefully the new characters won't be as bad as most of the console characters.

Posted by Jordan on June 19, 2009 at 2:38 p.m. #5

NICE. im down for ibuki. she was always one of the cooler character designs that came out of 3S. im pretty much ok with anybody from the 3S roster makin it into the game. lets get some dudley and alex along with ibuki

Posted by Jerseyfame on June 19, 2009 at 2:38 p.m. #6

Noone cares about Karin or Ibuki....give us Dudley!!!!

Also....

Are you kidding me....Cody is horrible!!!!

considering the japanese fetish with underage schoolgirls... i think we can see why she says karin is popular. we may not care for her cuz stuff like that is against the law here... yet we still got sakura in the game T_T

I would love to see Dudley, but any other 3S character would be nice.

As for a Final Fight character, I would love to see Mike Haggar, he's never made an appearance in any SF as a playable character and he's in every Final Fight game! I suppose nobody wants to see another Zangief-type character.

Posted by truth on June 19, 2009 at 3:20 p.m. #13

SF3 was the reason for the 10 year drought, it didn't feel like a SF game....so why add characters from it?

Posted by Cody is top tier on June 19, 2009 at 3:22 p.m. #14

In Alpha 3. See V-Ism tournament videos.

But that jailbird outfit needs to go. Guess there's going to be a lot of Final Fight characters.

After they were asked by JP players last time about Rolento and his cane weapon. Now someone asks for Cody. We're at the whim of random players from Japan (whom use that blog site) asking for new characters. Since that Dudley winning the poll on Capcom Unity didn't mean jack.

Posted by honda on June 19, 2009 at 3:23 p.m. #15

It'd be cool to see the added characters in the arcade as well to see professionals play as them. I mean, it'd be cool to see console characters like cammy and fei-long be used by professionals despite how bad those characters are.

Posted by -anto. on June 19, 2009 at 3:27 p.m. #16

Pls don't have 'Evil' versions of characters take the spot of characters to be added in the selection screen.

If Evil Ryu were to make an appearance, why not make Ryu be able to turn 'evil' by using his Ultra?

* Selectable Supers ( and Ultras ) a la 'SF3' would be great
too.

Evil Ryu is the man! Also gimme some air block or at least air recovery to negate some of those redonkulous juggles!

Posted by yang man on June 19, 2009 at 3:47 p.m. #18

new attacks would be cool too. There has to be a new voice for the announcer. A cooler one from the first sf2.

Posted by Rave_Zero on June 19, 2009 at 3:53 p.m. #19

Ibuki and Makoto are fine for me, coz they have a unique fighting style.... just stay away from the akward looking characters which don't fit into Street Fighter (like: Twelve, Necro, Gill etc.).

The last thing SFIV needs, are another "style-clones" of existing characters (especially dragon-punchers / fireballers)... there are already too many of them. You can throw out Dan and add Dudley ;-) LOL :-P

Having different Ultras is a nice idea, which will definitely bring some variety to the fights.

I hope that the PC version will have an option to change the language after installation (english/japanese) and also includes blind select in championship mode.

Capcom can you please add all the KOF, MK, Killer Instinct, VF, Tekken, Darkstalkers (insert more fighters here) and all of the SF cast because people will complain if you forget to add one character.

Oh and if you can make a character out of the Street Fighter announcer I would be the happiest person in the whole wide world.

Thank you Capcom

Posted by Ganamoy on June 19, 2009 at 4:28 p.m. #24

They need to add at least 10 - 15 more characters to the roster and go ahead and make this a kick ass game worth buying. How can you guys say you would be okay if they added only a few more characters. I want a total of 30 - 35 characters in the game. Balance should be secondary to fun, bring back all the characters that aren't already in sf4. I don't even know them all. But what I do know is it would be beyond badass to have that much variety in sf4. I love the game already, but i would be truly dissapointed with only a few more characters. The car bonus stages are a must! Its like they release sf4 the beta and now we are telling them how to make this game rock. All Capcom needs to do is listen. And anyways if they want everything so perfectly balanced, maybe they should remove all characters other than Ryu, wow that would be fun.

Posted by Ganamoy on June 19, 2009 at 4:34 p.m. #25

Also Capcom needs to add the character rival commentary but have unique ones for every character vs. character, and in special situations like for instance when someone shoryuken > FADC > Ultra with Ryu, he could say some extra badass thing instead of just the plain metso haduken. Or perhaps the commentary would be life based and when one character gets low on life the other automatically starts talking trash. They should change the lobby system to allow more people to watch matches if they want. And allow poeple to record more than just championship mode matches! like 15 per person or something. Definitly add more stages. some tropical stages. maybe a stage on a mountain top. a stage on the roof of a skyscraper. a stage in a snow storm where the characters slowly collect snow on them if they stay still and projectiles melt through the falling snow.

Posted by Shinroken on June 19, 2009 at 4:57 p.m. #26

I really hope they make the update DLC. Even if you have to buy it, I really don't wanna buy another 60 dollar game.

Posted by Shinroken on June 19, 2009 at 5:02 p.m. #27

@ Ganamoy - Yeah, I'd much rather balance. You know what kills fun? Unbalanced characters. Cause when it's just a bunch of your friend dicking around, having fun, it's cool. But when you're going against people who are only looking for a win, no matter what, they have no problem abusing the unbalanced stuff. You can never have perfect balance in a game, but they did a pretty good job at balancing the roster of characters(with the exception of Seth) So that's why what your saying is kind of an oxymoron. I mean, dude, a lot of what you say is stupid. The suggestion for more stages, and bigger lobbies is the only thing I can get on board with you with. But if you'd much rather more characters over balance, then you're a bit slow in the head.

Posted by Ganamoy on June 19, 2009 at 5:08 p.m. #28

. Also they need to add more taunts and BETTER taunts. what is the point of making 10 personal actions if a few are just doubles with different audio! that is lame. they need to have at least 10 DIFFERENT taunts and they need to be badass and relate more to the characters personalities it makes a huge difference, also the animation for entering a taunt is choppy and not as beautiful and natural as the rest of the game. This should be fixed. They should come up with a way for the ps3 to sense what controller is being used and this should be displayed under the player name. For instance JJcoolBeans88 - TE Street Fighter IV Arcade Stick
or Jrock34 - Sixaxis / Dualshock 3 or ganamoy - Hori Real Arcade Pro 3, and all they need to do is make a custom title option and so people can put Custom stick or Akuma Demon Blade or whatever they want really. This would help people express their personality to each other when playing online because most people even those that have mic's don't say anything at all really during a match. They should give all existing characters an overhaul, they should not worry about gimping characters to try to balance things. Give every character the tools they need to win, and the best player will win, or some random idiot may win, but it will definitely be more fun with more moves. And I don't just mean some stupid new animations to moves or something even though those little touches are very much appreciated. I mean moves that will make an impact and help characters be more fun to play and have a better chance at winning against Ryu and Ken . I know it is very possible to beat Ryu and ken but what I'm saying is all the characters should be badass and strong in their own way, not some strong and some literally unable to attack you at all if your holding db. Also they should bring back the parry but have it cost an ex bar, if you try to parry an ultra or super with multiple hits you have to parry each hit successfully and this is the only instance in which you can parry multiple hits in succession, this would be badass and create huge moments and awesome comebacks. If you attempt to parry a multi hit special attack you nullify the hit parried but take the rest of the damage like usual. The parry animation needs to look flawless and flow with the fight and momentum of the movement. A heavy breathing animation should be added to characters when they are at low health, and maybe even a different overall stance animation that looks beat down. And yes I am aware of Focus Attacks! Parry won't replace them, Focus attacks move you forward, parry should work like gouken's where they knock the other away if successful but you can't combo off of it. So if you parry the ultra you need to successfully parry each hit and at the end the other player would get knocked away possible with damage of some % of the attack parried. If you parry like a hit then mess up you should just eat the rest of the ultra.

Posted by Jerseyfame on June 19, 2009 at 5:12 p.m. #29

Street Fighter 4 isnt balanced off the principle oalone of Guile being low tier...thats stupid. His attributes and history in the game should make him tougher, less easier to stun...a better stamina and of course more strength....

He was translated into Street Fighter 4 if you ask me...he is the perfect fighting game character but sadly got dumbed down in this game. If you are technical and patient you can wield him, even play him aggressively, but that still doesnt count for how weak he is and how succeptable he is to something that almost every one in the game can play against....projectiles and crossups...

fix Guile in the new game...get respect back from his playing community. make the shotos earn their victories.

Posted by Ganamoy on June 19, 2009 at 5:22 p.m. #30

what? In a way it is a paradox to say a balanced game is fun.
Would basketball be more fun to watch if all the teams had equal talent. Would there be unexpected comebacks and things like that?
And contests would be fun to judge if all the entries looked more the same?
What are you talking about man? I agree their should be no exploitable moves or characters that are horribly bad. What I am saying Sir is that I want a SF game that is not afraid too have 40 characters because even if all the characters are just copies if they at least have unique looking moves and attributes and styles it will be awesome. Oh yeah, and chess would be more fun if all the pieces were the same. Oh wait thats checkers. Oh wait thats like a game evolution. Oh wait thats what Im talking about not Idea stagnation and preservation and feeling good thinking "other people" are "slow in the head." Street Fighter already is Street Fighter it doesn't need to "try" to be Street Fighter. wtf.

Posted by Ganamoy on June 19, 2009 at 5:24 p.m. #31

Oh yeah, and it would be really fun if all the players in the NBA were just like Le'bron and he was not one of a kind at all.

Posted by Madness on June 19, 2009 at 5:36 p.m. #32

Buff weaker characters, period. Rose's reflect needs to be reliable and she should have an overhead, el fuerte needs to rely on more than infinites or loops to win, Guile needs reliable anti-air back, vega needs less weaknesses period, etc etc etc

Everyone having a second ultra would be really nice. I'm sure capcom realizes where they went wrong with balance, so lets hope they do what needs to be done

Ps: bring back Gill...lolz

Posted by TOM on June 19, 2009 at 5:41 p.m. #33

it would be really retarded if they add karin and cody over any of the following Dudley, Alex, Yun, Hugo, Rolento, Ibuki,

Posted by KARIN? on June 19, 2009 at 5:43 p.m. #34

and who the hell likes karin? WHY NO LOVE FOR SF3 Characters does Dudley have to win a poll again to be ignored again by CRAPCOM to just add characters THEY like?

Posted by ganamoy on June 19, 2009 at 5:47 p.m. #35

stop dirty talking me

Posted by Shinroken on June 19, 2009 at 5:51 p.m. #36

@ Ganamoy - Balance as in a character not being over powered. Each character has their own special quality, but it's possible for any character to beat another with the exception of match ups like Seth VS Gief. Either way, when I say balance it's to avoid having character with Le'Bron James calibur skill going up against a grade school kid playing Basketball. When I say balance it's to keep everyone generally balanced, not 100 percent the same, but balanced to the point where everyone has a good chance. Not a game where there are 3 or 4 high tier characters that everyone uses and 26 that almost no one uses once the game gets older. Like, Third Strike was super fun, but once it got older and all the tricks were figured out, it became Yun, Chun fests sprinkled with Ken, Dudley, and Matoko. Yeah, you'd occasionally see some other characters, but 99 percent of the time, it's those 4-5 characters out of 18. So you tell me, is it fun having a game limited to 4-5 characters cause of the balance? And I'm starting to think you're either a troll or a complete retard.

Posted by Ganamoy on June 19, 2009 at 5:59 p.m. #37

You said what I said.
So you agree with me then that their should be like 40 fairly balanced characters that rock because everybody likes cake but what's better than cake? more cake.

We did not escape evolution or become evolved we are evolving. things are evolving, ideas are evolving. I would gladly take the opinion of a retarded person above yours.

Posted by Shinroken on June 19, 2009 at 6:04 p.m. #38

You're the one who said Fun over Balance, which is why I thought you were stupid to begin with. That's the thing I challenged you on. I'm all for a big roster of balanced characters, but that's not exactly the easiest thing to do. I mean, the rest of your suggestions aren't bad, they're just kinda minor, or things that don't change the game play in any way. I'm all for minor, cool things, but we have to be realistic.

Posted by SFIV fan on June 19, 2009 at 6:11 p.m. #39

take the joke chars out Dan ,ELfu, Blanka i'd much rather have chars that have a real chance at winning .Compared to Shoto clan and Zangief all the chars are jokes, bring Alpha 3 together with 3s to make Ultamate Street Fighter

Posted by Ganamoy on June 19, 2009 at 6:14 p.m. #40

Also you made the analogy of a grade school kid playing against lebron? what is that and how does that apply to SFIV in any way? Sagat VS Dan isn't even an analogy for that. But Daigo with Dan VS me with Sagat IS that, but that's because of experience and talent, not because of the characters. What I am saying is, you people say that you hate unbalanced games where a few characters dominate, yet that is how it is now. And I say that I want more characters with more moves that are badass and can hold there own and you still "think" you disagree with me. When it gets to the competitive level where players can hold their own, a few characters stand out. Some are just downright unusable. ??? All I'm saying is add back all the existing SF characters up to this date from every game. If some are too powerful, hey guess what, i am pretty sure they can tone them down they are not immortal beings living on discs that can't be altered they aren't even designed in 3d yet for all we know. would it not be awesome to have a SF game that is as complete a game as something can get. I mean don't SF games only come out every few years should this one not be as intense and extensive as possible? why do we need to wait to get what we can already imagine?

Posted by Vargr on June 19, 2009 at 6:17 p.m. #41

The next iteration of SFIV better have Dudley and Alex.

Posted by ExplosiveCyberSamuraiKing on June 19, 2009 at 6:19 p.m. #42

Posted by sakurafice on June 19, 2009 at 6:25 p.m. #43

@ Jordan

actually...sakura is older than cammy in sf4 XD
not that she looks like it but whatever

Posted by Shinroken on June 19, 2009 at 6:25 p.m. #44

But Capcom likes to follow storylines, and cannons, despite how messed up and crappy they might be. Though adding every character up until now into SF4 would be nice, a lot would be under powered, or over powered. Though it's true that they can be toned down, that's more work then just flipping a switch and making them stronger or weaker. They have to make sure they don't make them too weak, or too strong, or be able to abuse something on specfic characters. Such as Fei Longs infinite combo on Seth and Abel. Though that one wasn't really bad since it was hard to get down and only worked on two characters, it's stuff that has to be taken into account. And when you have ever character from the SF universe crammed into one game, balancing it becomes an even bigger problem. So that's why I say it would be cool, and fun at first. But to anyone who is competitive at the game, tournament caliber or not, it will eventually boil down to a select few characters that rule the rest, which isn't fun for anyone. So it effectively cuts down all that variety you had into crap. I mean, don't get me wrong, you can still pick any character you want, but you know as well as I do if you're going against someone of similar skill, them using a good character over you bad character they're most likely gonna win most games. Just like in Super Turbo when I use my Bison. I know he's a really good character, but when I got against anyone with a tick throw, or command grab, once I get caught in those loops, unless I have a super, I have no chance. That's crap I want avoided in SF4.

Posted by Franamoy on June 19, 2009 at 6:30 p.m. #45

Making fightings games is what Capcom does. If they cannot even make their own characters work in their own game then what the hell is it that they do? Did some crazy alien make SF and then leave and now all we have is people back engineering SF trying to not have it go off and destroy earth?

Posted by Rave_Zero on June 19, 2009 at 6:34 p.m. #46

@Ganamoy

quantity doesn't always mean quality!!!

SFIV has 25 characters (console version) and EVEN NOW the majority of players play only a fraction of the same character set (mostly Sagat/Ken/Ryu/Boxer). Adding more characters won't change this situation dramatically, especially if they all use the same fighting style.
Capcom needs to take a look at the existing characters and fix their remaining, undesired weaknesses/exploits first - before adding new characters.

For example: some characters are lucky when their moves connect or have miserable anti-air counters, while other characters simply steam-roll everything just with 2-3 moves and even gain a "vacuum-effect" to connect moves without problems).

To come back to your own example, would it be fun to see the same basketball team playing/winning over and over, with the same boring combo scheme again and again ?!?!

I think you can figure out the right answer, in case you want to play SFIV for many months or maybe years.

If just want more different visuals/outfits, then Capcom should add a character customization into SFIV , similar to Tekken 6 (hair/cloth/skin style+color).

Posted by ganamoy on June 19, 2009 at 6:34 p.m. #47

WOW i love the post above having Chun Li have an aura of intelligence and experience rather than stupid girly whatever it is now. Her comedy could be from the perspective of a intelligent confident experienced woman rather than what it is now. I mean is she a interpol person or what? a dancer? lol

Posted by ARJ08 on June 19, 2009 at 6:49 p.m. #48

What worries me is that they didn't even mention any update or maybe nerfing or beefing any characters. I don't want them to mention any names but I hope they adjust some characters seriously.

1.Give Ken a jacket with a pretty detailed dragon on the back. Dragon punch right.
Also fix his hair it needs to look more like 3s. Ken deserves to look cool. He's kind of mullety. haha

2. Chun li in the oufit from that SF movie where she fights vega after the shower. Yesss! I mean come on they put sakura with no pants so why would that be wierd? lol

3. Give C.viper a heel clicking sound to her foot steps sometimes that make sense seeing as she is wearing high heeled shoes.

4. Morrigan from Dark Stalkers. Duh.

5. Felicia from Dark Stalkers. She could be a charge character like Blanka. Duh.

6. Duh

7.

WHY, Capcom takes care of it's fans($$$$$$$$$), and after scanning teh internetz they have discovered that an overwhelming number of SF4 players would like to see various changes made to the game(adding URIEN IN A SUIT for instance).

If they are willing to make these changes, why the hell wouldn't they be entitled to make us pay for them in the form of a new game? A lotta salaries to pay.

Posted by derek on June 19, 2009 at 8:22 p.m. #69

ECSK ok like i said theres a million different better characters than karin and even you said it.... you rather seee Urien in a suit than karin...

That just proves my point, I WOULD definitely prefer Urien in a thong/suit whatever than Karin. Sure when there's filler, add karin idc. But you honestly believe that there's no more than ATLEAST 6 other characters that arent prefered over by the MAJORITY of the community..

It just really irks me that they mention karin/cody being a "possibility" when Dudley isnt even suggested.... its like developer fan favorites here who are making the list... they are saying "F YOU" to the fans and doing what they want.. Its probably why Sagats such a GOD tier and isn't changed.

console characters were pre-selected by probably by ono or the staff whatveer before the poll started.... the poll was probably a fixed poll.....correction was DEFINTELY fixed since it was fact DUDLEY who won the poll in high numbers i might add....

ya no one plays Fei Long, Dan.. sum pick rose and sakura online and somehow they made it over DUDLEY ROFL. and i don't mind these characters so much cept DAN his novelty was funny at first but quickly wore off... You get to thinking ehs just a really weak shoto that could of been DUDLEY or URIEN or YUN

Does CAPCOM really give a fuhhh? or this SHIOWAZAt just saying crap out her ass.. im sure some people are asking for karin and cody... but MORE THAN DUDLEY, YUN, IBUKI which i see everywhere? god she just trying to piss people off with this "POSSIBILITY" crap

Posted by ExplosiveCyberSamuraiKing on June 19, 2009 at 8:31 p.m. #70

Karin coo.

If URIEN IN A SUIT, Dudley, Ibuki and Rolento get in I'll be delighted and amazed. Anyone else to me is just a bonus. I dunno who else people want in cuz I'm not them, but I hope they get in too.

Hell they should double the roster. HEAR HEAR!!

My vote goes for Makoto and Urien... no one cares about Ibuki or Cody.

Posted by HIm on June 19, 2009 at 8:35 p.m. #74

I wonder how the game will look visually. FORGET NEW CHARACTERS. Its obvious new characters are going to come. visuals and other stuff ftw!!!

Posted by ExplosiveCyberSamuraiKing on June 19, 2009 at 8:36 p.m. #75

Hmmm....

That's a good argument 47drift, but it supports Dudley's inclusion over his exculsion....and I don't think I should really have to explain why.

BALROG VS DUDLEY

Posted by haha! on June 19, 2009 at 8:40 p.m. #76

Yes! Ibuki! Now we can have a Ninja vs. Ninja battle (Vega vs. Ibuki)

And Cody! Now... uh... well... maybe Capcom could add someone else other than Cody... maybe make another new character? idk

YO Digital!!!

I am actually representing 4 peeps right now and we all want Ibuki in the game, so I guess you're completely wrong, huh?

Still, we totally agree. Makoto and Urien are awesome are deserve to be in. As long as Urien gets to keep his suit for one of the costumes so that we can know the joy of pwning fools with URIEN IN A SUIT.

OH and smarten up Chun li, and act your age. kk I'm out.

Urien in a Suit

Makoto in some sexy ass hotpants with some karate gear on looking like some american gladiators

I gotta dissagree with people wanting Dudley simply because it would be too much of a copy of Mike Bison.

Posted by Christian Vega on June 19, 2009 at 8:57 p.m. #82

Before its all said and done there will three maybe four versions of street fighter 4. Capcom will probably add T.Hawk, Dee Jay and Charlie for sure. And I'm guessing from the cut scenes Adon and maybe some fighters from SF3. I just hope they remove that crappy short cut for all of the uppercut motions. It sucks that all of these shoto players can pull off uppercuts without entering the F,DF motion. Come on Capcom make everyone have to actaully learn how to play the game the right way.

Posted by Dudley on June 19, 2009 at 9:04 p.m. #83

I wouldn't mind a release of Street Fighter IV where every character was replaced with Dudley.

Posted by @47drift on June 19, 2009 at 9:17 p.m. #84

your argument fails dumbass, yah no dudley because of balrog? a boxer who plays different? hmm i guess they can add like 6 different shotokans bunch of which play similar with some various tweeks.... but its not okay to add another boxer with a different playing style? wow some people are just too dumb

@ #87....he wasn't saying that there wasn't going to be Dudley because of Balrog(boxer)...he was saying that there won't be Urien because Balrog's play style is similar to Urien...(I think that's what he was saying)NOTHING to do with Dudley

And in post #80 47Drift said it himself that he's like to see the two boxers square off...

Posted by Fix Bad Charcters First on June 20, 2009 at 1:26 a.m. #96

Everyone was talking about this in the DeeJay/ T.Hawk thread as well. I rather have Guile not suck than have new characters. Everyone who actually knows about the technicalities of fighting games is in agreement.
Seems like every scrub or person who uses a better character complains about the people complaining that the lower tiered characters in the game need buffs. More characters does not equal more fun. Geez...Blazblue only has 12. That's still fun right?

Posted by Fix Bad Charcters First on June 20, 2009 at 1:28 a.m. #97

Plus, if you end up having a ton of characters and only a few of them are good, it will be MvC2 all over again.
Guile only has 4 moves and 3 out of the 4 are pretty much useless. *sigh*

Posted by JD on June 20, 2009 at 2:36 a.m. #98

Alright for everyone whos saying add this guy from KOF and this guy from every other company, They can't do that unless Capcom goes to the company and gets permission. Thats going to cost them money and I don't think they would want to spent a lot more for a game that is already really good and has a good roster although some characters are quite unnecessary (Dan, Sakura, the likes).

God all the people going about "who likes Karin?" are morons.

Who wants her? people who want a character with an awesome moveset and pretty cool design. Se was one of my mains in Zero 3, pissed off that Gouken stole her counters, take HIM out I say and replace him with her :P

However I also REALLY want Guy in too, suprised not many people are mentioning him. We need some Final Fight love!

I hope for the PC iteration they release it as an upgrade/addon disc for less than a full game.

As for new characters I'd like to see Guy along with all the obligatory tweaks to the current cast. Any other chars are just gravy... throw Shin Gouki in for the laugh :D

Posted by derek on June 20, 2009 at 8:19 a.m. #112

im not saying KARIN sucks hard but im SAYING there's like 8 other characters that would definitely be outpicked by the majority...

I don't care if some weaaboo/perv loving only picks the cute asian schoolgirls in fighting games players wants Karin because he wants to be unique in the small margin of players who would pick her to the rest of the cast or just thinks anime girls are teh hawt.... and i understand theres a following of you fans...but to say karin is "VERY POPULAR" is an over statement.

She will be like Fei Long and Dan in CE... those guys are like 1 to every 100 players.

I can bet the nubs who see Ibuki, Dudley, Hugo, Alex, Rolento will be like wow what cool characters and they could suck major ass... but they will garner a cooler response from nubs and pros. anything to widen the gap of Ken/Ryu/Sagat spamming players.

And theres some Hardcore Tournament Hugos out in the Japanese 3rd Strike scene... I'd like to see him juggle Zangeif with a wall bounce clothesline combo thats for damn sure.

Posted by Tommy Vandersant on June 20, 2009 at 8:23 a.m. #113

hmm i like the fad where people think Dan is awesome... yet they suck with him and or rarely play him and clearly think it to be to the cool when they spam taunt...

in the end Dan is just a joke shoto. who could of been Ibuki or someone who plays differently and good :(

I can feel my skull caving in just being the same species as the person who posted this. BlazBlue is one of the more broken games released in a while. Arakune and Carl can start combos and keep going until they win. So at least do a little research before you go nuts.

Speaking of research lets take a look at where Guile is in the tier list (which does not determine if you win). Oh my, he is in the middle. He is in the middle of the list to one of the most balanced games released (look this stuff up. Reading can make you smarter).

Ok lets take a look and see if anyone is good with him. Oh dear, a team using him and E.Honda are going to super battle opera and they have done some great things already.

Also nice non argument saying anybody who thinks Guile is fine doesn't use him/is a scrub. Making outrageous uninformed out bursts based solely on opinion doesn't sound scrubby to you I guess.

Posted by ExplosiveCyberSamuraiKing on June 20, 2009 at 9:27 a.m. #115

derek's still trying to jam his opinion down everyone's throat. Dude people love Karin, even people who don't think she's attractive in any fkkn way.

Anyway, more importantly, URIEN IN A SUIT that's right URIEN IN A SUIT.

Oh and Ibuki.

And for cryin out loud CHUN LI SMARTEN UP and ACT YER DAMN AGE. Once again.

Posted by blahblah on June 20, 2009 at 10:11 a.m. #116

Just toss in Makoto, Dudley, Elena, Gill and Urien. Add 5 other original characters. Balance the game coughsagatcough. Add bunos stages. New[free] costumes. Lobbies. Save replays. And, hell, even another collectors edition, id be all over it like R kelly's pee on 14 year old girls.

Posted by Blazblue is not broken... on June 20, 2009 at 10:36 a.m. #117

Hey, uh...#57. I know this isn't an Aksys website or anything; but, are you out of your mind? Blazlue blue is far from broken. I dare you to go to the dustloop forums and try to say that! They would chew you up and spit you out with your ridiculous statements. And the people who make Guilty Gear are especially good at attempting to balance their games!

Oh, and Carl has 1 "semi-infinite" and is STILL the worst character in that game. You're a bad kid.

Posted by Oh, yeah... on June 20, 2009 at 10:39 a.m. #118

And Guile is bad. You're probably on of the kids I referenced earlier. lol. Ask anyone who actually plays guile, look at the frame data, watch videos. Guile gets raped 90% of the time. There's a reason he's towards the bottom.
Bad start up, bad recovery (minus LP sonic boom), bad super, bad ultra. When Guile starts winning tournaments, then you can talk.

For everyone who hates on Guile stop it. Tier charts are what they are but if you find your own style with a character you can compete with anybody. I have 1285 wins with guile compared to 484 loses, I would say thats not bad. But when SF4 dash is released I'm sure they will speed Guiles flash kick up and will go SF2CE and give him a two hit firce flash kick as well.

Leave Cody Alone. I for one want him in the game. I played him all the time in zero 3 and would love to have him in SF4 Dash. As for Ibuki... Doesn't Viper kinda remind anyone of Ibuki playstyle wise? I would think Urien would get be a better choice if they were going to add a 3S character to the roster. I would vote for him in a suit as well. Or Yun and Yang. I would love to have them in SF4. Or how about they make Haggar from FINAL FIGHT a character. That could be interesting... But...

CODY IN SF4! THIS HAS TO HAPPEN!

Posted by Ibuki-o-gee-san! on June 20, 2009 at 5:34 p.m. #133

To me releasing a new game doesn't seem like a very good idea for Capcom. It would appear to the public and to critics as if they were trying to milk their loyal fans. It's much more likely that this will be premium downloadable content, that you will have to install regardless of whether you buy it or not. this will stop issues from some people having the new stages, players, etc
Then when you buy the update (you know you will) it will end up being the 200kb unlock codes were seeing more and more in games.
I think that 4-6 new characters would be good. I was always partial to Ibuki.
One thing that i pray they bring back is the matchup specific character animations. Who remembers the lighting that struck after E.Ryu and Akuma tried to r.demon each other in their opening? More of that please!

Posted by fightclubnearu on June 20, 2009 at 7:38 p.m. #142

I would love a parry system with the cost of one ex bar per parry.

That being said Dudley is a motion character and would provide diversity against a charge based boxer especially compared to the shoto fest(Gouken,Akuma,Ryu,Ken,Dan) who all inputs are similar and play similar.

I would Dee JAY,Dudley,Makoto,Ibuki,Rolento and the Great Muta.SF needs a japanese wrestler.Ultra Combo = Shinning Wizard

Give Vega his testacles back or give him one of Zangiefs and Bison a faster teleport,reliable antiair, some more damage or if not atleast a gun and make sure he can combo into it from the ground.

Can Zangief not have ten feet of range on his spd or two feet smaller he looks like a russian godzilla taking an eigth of the screen.

That being said buff Sagat because wining with two combos and a fireball is not easy enough even when performing the inputs with my pinkies. Whatever you do do not add Remy or Alpha 1 Adon because they are Sagat killers and the whole world would explode if Sagat wasnt top because it is the last sign of the apocalypse.You've done it before making a great Sagat better(sf2,sf2t) I am sure you will do it again.

World Tour Mode. World Tour mode even though Urien in a suit is fine, but prob. = costs $2 in microbux. $1.5 bux if you buy later and buy another combined pack.

And yeah World Tour Mode. Not Alpha 3 version which was good, but VF4 Evo style going to different "arcades" fighting the AI of the best Japan players. If not also many international players, and these North America guys.

So that random dummy on youtube can finally say he (can, has) beat Diago or Justin Wong omfg, and post the video. Then the next youtube dood says, yeah you beat the AI not in real life in a tourney. Level up, man up, get out your mom's basement FTW.

SF3 bombed and sent the franchise into a coma for 10 years, they arent bringing it back as you can tell by all the political answers they ALWAYS give. The generic sf3 cast probably wont make it in another street fighter, maybe in 50-60 years. SF4 is the new engine, less complicated and the cash cow. Most people who complain about sf3 superior teching and all cant even play very well. Japanese players are so much better at it, why even bring it up??

It's not really a coincidence.....

You make a game called streetfighter that is really nothing like the streetfighter people loved, and suddenly alot of people don't even play anymore.

Then in the "sequel" many years later, they bring back everything people previously loved as if the last game was never even made.

Now, why would they do that...

If balrog is tyson the dudley is holyfield...whatever if really want to see that matchup in game

Glad to have ibuki she is my 2nd in 3s and i missed her mucho. but i also want some character fixes roses... sakura... gulie... vega.. the list gones on those are just the majors

What? Dudley responds to your whole comment with one of his phrases:

"Gutter trash."

Dudley plays nothing like Mike Balrog Bison.

"You have no dignity."

Plus Dudley isn't even black, plus British and not stereotype thug like a Birdie, shows what you know.

Posted by Madness on June 21, 2009 at 7:31 p.m. #163

Amen 164, can't wait for fixes.

Sakura there's barely anything wrong aside from damage taken and dealt from what i can see. Maybe make her fireball more competitive

156, honestly i didn't have any taste for the game at all, but i don't know what he's supposed to be if not black, and he really does remind me of holyfield.

If they want to put him in the game, whatever

I think that Dudley is Arab English. Lookit his profile!

I want brand new characters...

Posted by ShinKiHauYuu on June 22, 2009 at 10:27 p.m. #166

I'm done with Street Fighter 4 unless Poison, Karin, Elena, Makoto, any of Bison's dolls or a new female that's actually cool are added in this way too early and unnecessary update.
they should have made the game right in the first place.

Posted by SF Fanboy on June 23, 2009 at 12:47 a.m. #167

Bring back Karin, put Elena in.
Dudley would be cool, but Karin and Elena first. We need more females. Plus, Elena is a unique character design with a unique fighting style. Karin is cool, even if she is a mixup of a lot of other styles (rekkas, shoryus, counters).

Adding bigger lobbies, Yun, Ibuki, Mokoto, Dudley, Urien, Alex & 4 NEW characters.. Adding an option to play a character with the option of charge inputs or shoto inputs.. I think that would bridge a huge gap for people to use more characters that are unused right now, because they are not comfortable with the inputs.

Posted by kk on June 23, 2009 at 12:06 p.m. #169

how about they improve the game b4 adding more crap. For instance lobbies, why does two older games like hdr & mvc2 have them but not a brand new game like sf4. How about fixing the ps3 version. Add blind picking for all modes except champion mode. How about we save our own replays instead stupid ass top 5000. Finally fix da damn theme song, its so gay, what happened to the sounds frm sf2.

Then you add more people, like dudley makoto and yun. But of course capcom will fcck us over since we will have to buy another $60 game, instead of being smart enough to put it as DLC, which I wouldn't mind paying for.

Posted by URIEN IN A SUIT on June 23, 2009 at 1:44 p.m. #170

OMG yes that theme song is awful. NO lyrics plz. ty

Posted by Elena is fun on June 23, 2009 at 7:37 p.m. #171

plenty of crossups, mixups, overheads, special overhead (that I hope won't get nerfed like Chun's who can get swept out of it - IN THE AIR), specials with multi hits, that work very nice as EX version, fun Super Arts too.

Ever make a turtle player down to no life, then run away yourself and heal SA3 to full life and watch as the turtle finally has to come towards you. Funny stuff.

Back+HK >>>> SHOTOs

Blue eyed African does have some strange racial connotations to it I read somewhere. If not boring black/brown, how about Hazel eyes Capcom? Right that wrong and still look anime color style/uncommon.

Posted by Kshbyo on June 23, 2009 at 7:48 p.m. #172

I agree with #173, they definetly should fix a couple of things, especially idk maybe some goddam PLAYER LOBBIES so we can play several matches with friends like HDR has. I think you people should come to the realization that we would like play with our friends and maybe save our replays, I dont even care about posting them I would like to see me versus my friend, and only post one n if I want to post the other one, than that gets removed from the replays.Totally agree with you 173 especially the gay ass theme song lol

If you haven't been playing sense 1992 the orignal SF2 fu*k off SF4 is sh*t they made that sh*t to easy for these noob to fu*king win. P.S. Sagat is not broken ever Capcom game Sagat has been in he has always been Top Tier From SF2 CE, CVS2, and now SF4. F*ck SF4 they should have named that sh*t (Fight like a Bitch 4)

By all means they should milk this for what it is worth. I think the SF4 rivalry were kind of sorry (why does a good bit of the characters run into Ryu?). I was really pissed the treated SF3 like the kid with lice. There are some worthy rivalries to be had in there.
Dudley could have easily been there to rival Balrog because of how he ruined boxing (in his eyes)
In the Alpha series, Karin is an obvious choice. I do not know about Cody though. My best player in Alpha was Guy and considering how he plays different from other characters (maybe el fuerte is closest), I would have loved to see him in it. He is not popular though, so I am not expecting it

Posted by Omar Cloma on July 9, 2009 at 3:59 a.m. #177

If only this update would contain a heavy balancing of the characters i.e. nerf Sagat, Ryu and Zangief down a bit, increase Chun's stamina and give her back her decent anti-air, I'd be very happy.

Posted by dreadl0000rd on July 13, 2009 at 12:44 p.m. #178

If they plan on adding chars, im praying they add Dudley and DeeJay

Posted by anyadat123123 on July 14, 2009 at 5:39 a.m. #179

Ye i understand now, Capcom made a game called Street Fighter, i started to love it, they make new series, now we have Street Fighter 4, as they mentoined WHY NOT A 2D FIGHTER ANYMORE? CAUSE THEY DID WHAT THEY CAN, u can play 3rd strike, and hd turbo.... great games, now we have sf4, not the old, we need new things, a new motor, they made it, and its friggin awesome, and we even got a PC version. We don't need character balance, we need good matches, if we would have good balance, then the games would be boring to watch... they even implemented a "DMG-reduction-system" in SF4, to balance things out, and ppl still complaining... i mean WTF... U want new chars? Why? Cause u don't see ur overpowered 3rd strike char? Like Urien(RX) Tackle abuse? Most of your real problem is that u still can't go from 3rd strike or sf2, just watch the top players like "Daigo" "Iyo" or others, even "Justin Wong" managed to be good in SF4, while u still cry for old things... I can tell u, there are people who liked SF3:2nd impact more then 3rd strike... Its your opininons, and what the years kicked into your brains. I wanna thank Capcom for releasing this nice game SF4 for PC, and i hope this 3rd strike ********* stuff won't come into SF4 just like other people wants... and if something is true about what i read in the first some comments, i'm up to seeing "Dudley" in the new version, but have no clue how can he be implemented, since we already have a nice boxer...

Posted by Goja on July 14, 2009 at 5:47 a.m. #180

Anybody who is complaining about Guile, is just an old Guile player who still wants his beloved doll to be top tier... Comeon, we don't wannt god tier chun back in the game again... I think the current rooster is nice, Ryu is top tier, not like in sf3....

Posted by Guy on July 14, 2009 at 3:55 p.m. #181

Add Guy to the game and all of SFIV's problems will be instantly solved

Posted by DustMan on July 15, 2009 at 4:49 a.m. #182

A SEQUEL??!!! ARE U F*CKING WITH ME??!!! I JUST BOUGHT SF4 AND I SHALL BUY A SEQUEL!!! ALL OF THIS CAN BE FREE UPDATES FOR ALL!!! WHERE ARE DEEJAY AND T.HAWK!!!!!F*CK U CAPCOM!!! AAARRGGHHH.... SEQUEL WILL ONLY BE BOUGHT IF ITS REDUCED TO 10 BUCKS!NOTHING MORE!

Posted by Charlie on July 15, 2009 at 1:41 p.m. #183

Charlie, Adon, Makoto, Karin, Urien. They kept implying Charlie isn't dead in the game so have him already.

Posted by DUDLEY on July 20, 2009 at 3:46 p.m. #185

they need to just add dudley he would be perfect and make just like 3s dud with upgrades. i cant choose who i want to main in sf4 but if they add dud then my choice is made dud ftw. karin wouldnt have much and would get raped but dudley has a nice dp and very good supers. good normals,combos and juggles 6cr.fk in the corner karin is weak. ibuki would be soild also they need to add dj and t.hawk maybe some guy

Posted by shannaro!!! on July 20, 2009 at 10:17 p.m. #186

I have a tendency to ALWAYS pick girl characters over guys. I don't think they're any better, but i have way more fun using them! I really want to see Karin (from SFA3) for sure. She was fast, strong, and has a lot combo-friendly potential. Damn, she'd be SOOO good in SFIV!!!

Don't get me wrong. I mean Cammy, Sakura, and Rose were all great additions but in the end, only FIVE girls made it to SFIV and that's it! Capcom needs to put more girls in the roster and I'm glad that they're considering Karin and Ibuki into this.

Posted by shannaro!!! on July 20, 2009 at 10:22 p.m. #187

Cammy and Sakura are my favorites. If Karin's popular enough to make it, Sakura's rivalry with her will be just as fun to see as with Ryu's rivalry with Ken.

If you Think about it, Sakura and Karin can be seen as female versions of Ryu and Ken respectively, even though they all play very differently.

Posted by Muerto on July 21, 2009 at 2:05 p.m. #188

I really hope that they keep my main man with the (keep em' guessing game plan) EL Fuerte!..Dude is great...Super fun to play and his infinite...MUNNY!..

that is all..

Posted by Theo Profeitis on July 24, 2009 at 3:04 p.m. #189

Who the hell cares about "Urien in a suit" that's ridiculous.

Bring on:

Haggar
Guy
Adon
Birdy
Damnd (first boss from final fight)
Sodom
Axel was pretty cool

And yeah... Guile needs a boost, he plays nothing lie he used to, slow and disjointed - no fun anymore.

that! is ridiculous, URIEN IN A SUIT OWNS ALL!

Posted by Guile_Player on August 12, 2009 at 10:03 p.m. #193

For Guile, do the following:
NUMBER 1: -Improve Flash Kick- Give it higher priority, a larger hitbox, less recovery time (ultra/super as well), and more damage. (Half his move list, a classic anti-air, and yet gets slammed by other anti airs in the game)
NUMBER 2: Give him a normal/special move>>> ultra setup (more specifically, normal/special >> FADC >> Ultra) like Ryu, Sagat, etc (rather than merely super >>> ultra setup as it currently is).
NUMBER 3: Return the sonic hurricane (could work perfectly as a part of a flaskick >> FADC >> Ultra setup, but might require Sonic H. not to require charge)
NUMBER 4: -Make him more nimble - that is, faster moves and less recovery time, less charge time, better crossup. Making him faster will improve his ability to zone. The crossup game is worthy of an upgrade because his currently broken defensive game makes being offensive more useful than ever.
NUMBER 5: Improve damage for his moves so u dont have to bust a gilley combo to match a newcomer Sagat's combo in damage.
NUMBER 6: Ultra/super easier to input like HD remix.
Number 7: Higher stun/higher health
Number 8: Make linking moves easier as they are currently very difficult.

First 3 suggestions are prolly best. Im sure there are a lot of people that would be interested in playing with Guile, vets and newcomers alike, if only he were easier to play with. At LEAST fix the flashkick, surely that could be EASILY fixed (like its entirely unnecessary million year recovery time). So please restore him to his old high tier status - it shouldnt be that hard. Same goes with Vega. I'd say Vega is most in need of improvement, Guile second.

Posted by Danny34 on August 16, 2009 at 9:58 p.m. #194

How about the three most popular characters from 3rd Strike like Dudley, Yun & Yang, and Urien. Imagine the crazy battles with those!

Posted by TiNoKus on August 18, 2009 at 2:33 p.m. #195

i really wish they would improve the AI of the cpu for arcade mode, i remember SF super turbo being more difficult on easiest than SF4 on hardest

Posted by Karinfan on September 21, 2009 at 1:56 p.m. #196

For the love of God, please add Karin.
That they could have the Ryu-clone girl Sakura in the game but not her rival with the unique and fun fighting style was an inexcusable oversight!
