Interesting Notes:
Backdashes no longer have hit invuln. Do have throw invuln.
Chip death no longer possible unless Critical Art (Super) is used
All characters get a V-Skill, which is the old Focus input. V-Trigger is the old Taunt input (HP+HK).
Chun's Lightning Legs input is now QCF, no longer Kx5
Charlie's moves are all QCF/DP motions
All Critical Arts are QCFx2

Actual Game Footage (with random commentary):

[Krandor]

Not sure how I feel about lack of chip death.

I do like all Super inputs being identical, since inputs had a hand in making some Ultras/Supers being less practical.

[octopus]

where are the grapplers ;o

[Weltall]

I freaking love Chun's legs being QCF instead of x5.

Speed the movement up a few notches and we have ourselves another 6-8 year game!

[The Blackrose]

Just added in the note about backdashes. Motherfuckers best be learning to block on wakeup.

Option Select Throw Tech is also done.

[Krandor]

IIRC back dashes being invulnerable was due to the existence of focus attacks, so that going away makes sense.

Also noticing in a certain banned website's gameplay video that throws are not hard knockdown...

In fact, I think hard knockdown may be dead period.

[Weltall]

Also, I absolutely love the characters avatars in the top-left/right corners. They better keep those.

In battle system trailer, Around 1:46. Noticed that Ryu guard crushed Chun with super. Wonder if theres actually hidden guard gauge or just abilities with guardcrush tag.

[Weltall]

There is a visible Stun gauge below the HP bars.

It's a property of Ryu's V-Trigger. He gets the ability to charge his Hadokens (think SFxT). If he lets one go at full charge against a character and the character blocks, it's a guard break.

The second this shit hits JP arcades I'm booking my flight. December most likely.

[The Blackrose]

The other banned website confirmed that hard knockdowns are rare - Critical Arts and throws only (sure as hell did not look like it though for throws).

There's also a fatal counter system.

What arcade version?

EDIT: Before shit hits the fan - the above based upon hearsay.

[octopus]

Fatal counter like in anime games?

[The Blackrose]

Yes.

EDIT: Just noticed there's a cross-up notification too.

Alpha Counters consume 1 V Trigger bar (most have 2, Bison has 3).

Normals above medium do grey chip damage on block.

[Weltall]

Arcade version or riot.

[Deejay]

So wait, is MP&MK a universal parry now? Because the game play video shows Bison and Ryu performing them without meter

In the article it said that the v-skill properties are different for each character.
