Ultra Street Fighter IV

Presumably, fighting game community.

Oh I thought he was referring to a new game called Foxy Girl Catfight.

From the makers of Dead or Alive?

If a solid fighting game came out with that F2P model came out, I'm sure the community would love it. It's just a question of whether it would make any money.

New feature for USF4 confirmed, you can now change your character's edition that they come from and make it so they play with all of the stuff they had in other versions of the game.



This is a great addition.

That seems like an amazing way to destroy the balance of the game.

I highly doubt that feature will be allowed in actual tourneys, people will probably end up doing side tourneys for that though. Nonetheless, this feature is available in ST and that games balance is fine for the most part (Vega and O. Sagat are stupid, but the latter is soft banned anyways).

Ah okay, I guess that seems cool then. Are there many overt differences between the various iterations of characters or is it mostly things that aren't obvious unless you know what to look for ie: hitboxes, frame timing etc?

There are some characters who are just outright better in different versions of the game. Vanilla Sagat is infamously powerful character, AE Yun is also stupidly strong, Vanilla Akuma is really powerful, AE Viper is stupid, there's a lot of characters who've been better in different versions.

Most vanilla and super characters have better damage than the succeeding versions of the characters, but some characters are so bad in earlier versions that won't matter. Characters like Dan, Gouken, and Hakan have so many better buffs come AE, 2012, and finally Ultra. It's an offline mode so it'll probably definitely get a side tournament, this mode got a great reaction at SCR last night and a lot of people relaly love this kind of thing.

I'm a bit disappointed you won't be able to use it in online lobbies with an option to turn it off, but hey what are you gonna do.

AE Yun (and Yang) were so hype, unlike Vanilla Sagat and Super's top tier which consisted of charge characters. There was finally an overpowered rush down character.

Fifth character finally revealed....



...aaaaand it's a letdown.

I think Decapre's pretty cool with her cool tools and her ultras being nutty as hell. Although, I wasn't expecting a completely new character from the ground up considering from the start this game was probably meant to be another update and the new characters were something an extra.

She looks like she plays too similar to Cammy. I'm most interested in Rolento out of this lot.

She's a charge character and most of her stuff is completely different from Cammy aside from her normals.

I'm sure there's differences I just was never a fan of Cammy's basic move set. I'll try her just because her specials look cool, but i've never bothered with charge characters apart from Vega. BTW is he still shit or was he improved post Super, I didn't play the other versions.

I just read that they added delayed wake up to the game to mess with knockdown setups. Sounds very interesting.

I think Vega's like average now, he's not used a lot, but I'm pretty sure he's not bad.

Yeah, they did that because of what the FGC calls the vortex where once you get one knockdown the setups basically put you at an extreme advantage and you can just keep getting the knockdown to keep it going.

What's FGC?

Thanks for replying within a year.

I do want to get this, I'll see if i still care about it by release date.

Its alright. Hugo is the worst character in the game tho. People say elana and rolento are bad but I like elana alot and kick some ass with her online. Decapre is pretty cool but I cant get the hang of her. Poisen has fireballs for days.

It's very nice. Finally getting into sf4. Took three updates but its happening love me sone sakura she will always be my main along with yang. Although its getting another balance patch, some say the rushed it out early so it could make evo. And I can see where someone could get that idea. Again great game none the less.

i'm tempted to grab the ps4 version to play omega mode anyone got this and play it
