Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition |OT2| Street Fighter Has Come Home

So, I am still a fan of SFV. I still think it is a good game. I also think they have made a lot of good moves this year. Unfortunately, I never feel like I have a moment to celebrate the good moves they make before they make another bad one. Even when I think people are focusing too much on the negative, it is hard for me to deny that they are still doing dumb shit. These ads have been relatively harmless, but they were implemented terribly. It is hard to escape the feeling that they cheapen the entire property. They have also done NOTHING to create ANY good will. At a time when people should be celebrating the franchise, when excitement should be rising, they made sure to foster a growing sense of disdain in their fanbase. I have to say, I agree with Jett; I think the people making the decisions are either completely incompetent, or they see Street Fighter V as being worthless and are happy to use it as a testing ground for half-baked monetization practices.
It is definitely pretty deflating being a fan of SFV. I just want to be happy with your game, Capcom. Why not make every announcement a win for the fans instead of another concession?
Hopefully they can bring back some of the excitement with the announcement this evening. Hopefully there aren't more concessions the fans will have to begrudgingly choke on.
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Lol. Yipes is awesome.
O yea, the loading screen ads should be telling people what time the cpt finals, stream schedule , where the stream is with twitch link, update the screens to show who's in top 8 and the brackets. O yea, tell them what cpt is and how to participate.
But yea, capcom.
I still struggle to use her hailstorm effectively. I can use it for mild pressure, catch people by surprise (since it is slightly delayed) and for some extra damage on stun combos. But I can't shake the feeling I am missing something there.
I also keep forgetting she has a mid-air projectile of sorts + extra jump in her j.cr.mk.
Parries are cool, but aside from AA I mostly reserve them for wakeup. First two wakeups are recon for me, seeing what the opponent does. If they didn't throw, I will parry them the third time.
At neutral or close range I don't use frost touch at all, and use her v-skill instead. It has a long startup (15 frames, while the actual counter only connects at frame 8-16), but it catches all hit levels.
(Part of me wishes they would make her ex.frost touch catch all hit levels as well, but that would make it way too powerful.)
Edit: Another thing I just remembered: all ex vanity steps have projectile invincibility. Light (lk+mk) and medium (lk+hk) > punch are good, but require strict timing. The heavy (mk+hk) one seems to be the best, since it it has 55 frames of projectile invincibility and if you land in front of your opponent you can combo into lp>mp>hp>parabellum from it.

Not much longer now. To think, by the time I wake up I'll be able to see that E.Honda won't be in SFV.
I have a good feeling things are looking up for us. Ed's going to be top tier next season, I can feel it in my bones.
Before the music started, I would have answered something like "well, of course, DUH, Capcom is not stupid enough to skip it, we're definitely getting the names of the characters and a cool trailer".
An hour later, I am a broken husk of a man without any hopes or certitudes.
We just all went through some shit, man. No one hopes for anything anymore. We don't believe anything good will ever happen again. Where has the light gone, Ciao? Where has the light gone?
Thanks Ono, look at all my boys going mad in here! Better be a trailer for season 4 AND 5, with at least one rep from Rival Schools and one from World Heroes!

I can't believe how disappointing this is. Utter shit. Please everyone else not be a complete disappointment.
That would save this.The AE trailer told us this a year ago.
Bet you there are still 6 S4 character besides him. That's why they put Sagat and G together.
Just booted up SFV and oh it is most definitely real. "Selection not available" when I try to pick him, though.
Man, fuck this. First the ads and now this crap. This is such a huge disappointment.
Just imagine if they had released a character like Rose this way. But nope, have some shitty Evil Ryu instead.

Look, Rose is my favorite character. But Evil Ryu is def way more popular.
It's not gonna be close. Though I don't know about them fangs. Still not as shit as Ed or Laura or Falke or whatever.
