Street Fighter V: A Preliminary Thread

Apparently the new Madcatz Fightpad is absolute booty tier, cancelled that order.

Fuck, where did you see this? I have one pre-ordered. Might have to order that X360>PS4 adapter and hope that fightpad will work.

Edit: nvm... here's a video.

A decent amount of people on r/kappa were shitting on it along with Alioune, who's opinion on pads I'd definitely trust.

Either the older Hori FC4 or the new version (which includes an Xinput mode for use on PC) are probably the best options for pad players. I've been giving the Xbox One Elite a spin as well, cause damn that dpad is incredible.

whew... i get to body Arc. thats all i care about. <3

You wish. I called Laura first ain't no mainchicken stealing round here.

[Weltall]

what? I'm more making fun of people making fun of unfinished games, not just you whining about missing features lmao

there's this neat forum option though that allows you to block someone that annoys/bothers you, feel free to use that

And miss out on seeing that luscious cake? Never. And all fight pads are fucking booty tier. Get a stick and don't be 3rd world poor.

Pfft, I swept you in a set of matches once and I'm a pad fighter! I'm sure it was just a fluke though and you were probably distracted

Welt still salty about France winning Evo

New Details

Spoiler: show

The February 16th release date for Street Fighter V is just around the corner, and a ton of news just dropped yesterday at a special pre-launch event in Japan. Never fear because I’m here to fill you all in!

First off, we officially revealed all the different Character Story Mode costumes! Each Character Story sheds light on the background and motivations of each individual fighter. As these stories take place in the past, you’ll see that everyone has a different look compared to their new threads in SFV!

By completing each Character Story, you’ll be able to unlock their corresponding Story Mode costume for purchase in the in-game store, once it launches in March.

Next, we revealed new details about Survival Mode. In this mode, your health and EX Gauge carry over between each match against the CPU. You are able to earn points with each victory, which can in turn be used to purchase special power ups, such as health or attack or defense increases, etc., to help you last longer. Purchasing more power ups reduces your overall score though, so there is a trade-off. By clearing the four difficulty levels of Survival Mode, you’ll be able to earn new colors and in-game titles for your character!

Continuing on, details about Challenge Mode were also announced for the first time. Challenge Mode consists of 4 sub-modes, each of which has been designed to help you improve your skills and gameplay:

- Battle Tips

• Learn the ins and outs of Street Fighter V through helpful demonstration and tutorial content. Contains content for each of the 16 characters, as well as advice geared towards all levels of players.
• Available March 2016

- Trials

• Put your skills to the ultimate test with combo trials for all 16 characters, ranging from basic to pro combos.
• Available March 2016

- Targets

• Complete daily renewing goals to earn fight money, in-game titles, and other cool content.
• Available soon after launch.

- Extra Battle

• Fight against special CPU bosses in the ultimate challenge. Earn in-game rewards upon completion.
• Available soon after launch.

Finally, some news tidbits: online battle lobbies will support two players at launch, but eight person lobbies as well as Spectator mode will be patched into the game as part of the March 2016 update. We are happy to officially confirm that legacy PS3 fightsticks will work with Street Fighter V at launch! A big thanks to Lab Zero for making this a possibility.

And one final thing (I promise), some of you may have heard the news that Alex will be available to all Street Fighter V players in March 2016 as well, and I’m happy to re-confirm that news here. At launch, playing through most of the single player content (in fact, just the Character Stories) will give you enough Fight Money to get Alex for free! We’ll have more information to share on Alex and the other post launch characters soon, so stay tuned.

So either story mode gives a fuck load of points for first time or new chars don't cost that much?

[Krandor]

Characters are believed to cost 100,000 Fight Money I think.

i have a stick and i can only pretend to play marvel with it.

[Weltall]

No idea what you're talking about it even what your name is in game, but I'd bet my dick I'd destroy you tonight if you like. The only person who can come close on here right now is Deejay and we just played with me winning 4-2. Most of the matches could have went either way though.

Also the ps4 ver has slowdown issues apparently. Fingers crossed on PC version.

I think they mentioned previously that story mode gives a sizable amount of FM

[Krandor]

I wonder who takes the blame on this one, Capcom, Sony, or Unreal Engine 4.

[Deejay]

Think I'll stick with PC verse then. Sucks cause i would have liked the trophies.

Funny, guilty gear xrd is the same exact way. I played on pc since it came out. Decided to go back to ps4 since finding matches in pc is impossible, and ps4 has random slowdown and stuttering. I was pretty mindblown as i never noticed until i went back to ps4. PC xrd is top fucking tier, ps3 2nd in performance mode, ps4 dead last.

[Moridam]

quick disconnect: the biggest lie in all of gaming. i swear to fucking god half these things were welded on at the factory.

oh well, full set of fresh buttons installed on the SA, i'm completely ready for release now.

[Akiyama]

If I had to guess, I'm sure we'll see a performance patch for PS4's version soon enough.

Also all of those costumes from story mode related stuff? Kinda looking forward to all the unlocks.

[Krandor]

Colors are from Survival Mode
Alt Costumes from Story Mode, Pre-Order Bonuses, or Season Pass (for the DLC characters).

Of course I think neither colors or the story mode costumes will be available for the first month since they require the store to purchase.

Don't think this is something they have ever been able to fix in the past on games. Sounds like people are going PC and you can filter to play PC opponents only (in beta you could). This also helps avoid most of the wireless scrubs.
