SoWL Report post Posted October 7, 2015 Note that the trailer mirrors get deleted left and right, so it might not be available for too long.That said, yeah, I like her much more than Necalli or Rashid. The slow fireballs that can setup command grabs look damn dirty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vulcan422 Report post Posted October 8, 2015 Both Laura and her fighting style look magnificent. Will definitely try her out.In other news, the beta got an update today. Load times are faster, the text on message boxes is different along with the coloration, and you can now save videos and screenshots. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swordsman09 Report post Posted October 9, 2015 I'm going to try and actually get into this beta. I'll be getting a stick at SCR and pre-ordering just in time to finally play Ken in training! :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ReRe01 Report post Posted October 9, 2015 More new was just post about Laura on the official site SFV site that she is in fact Sean from SF 3rd Strike big sister http://shoryuken.com/2015/10/08/street-fighter-vs-laura-matsuda-is-seans-older-sister/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vulcan422 Report post Posted October 21, 2015 Beta went up earlier today. Vega and Mika were the only ones available initially, until an update introduced Necalli and Rashid.EDIT: Beta is officially live.Unfortunately the matchmaking is broken, and while Capcom is trying to fix it they are not confident they will be able to in time. But hey, people wanted offline training mode. Now they kinda have it.If they don't get around to fixing it they did say that they will open the beta up at certain points after it has ended.

Vulcan422 Report post Posted October 24, 2015 Good God Karin is amazing. She is ridiculously good, would practically put Mika to shame if Mika was not her own special brand of stupid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swordsman09 Report post Posted October 24, 2015 I stand by my word and only used Ken thus far. I've only dabbled with the other characters so to speak.Ken is fun though. I really need to try Rasid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TAI-X Report post Posted October 24, 2015 Good God Karin is amazing. She is ridiculously good, would practically put Mika to shame if Mika was not her own special brand of stupid.No rekkas outside of V-Trigger though?! No 360 command throw (which was originally the starting point for her craziest V-ISM combos)? Not even her Geese Howard counters? WTF were they smoking? My Alpha 3 main is ruined, and R. Mika is even more stupid in her own ways now. No I don't care how "broken" they are, it's about being interesting and rewarding to play as.I hate how Capcom has dumbed down rekkas since SFIV, where if you connect with one hit on the ground you're guaranteed to hit with the rest if you keep mashing the same command. Fei Long may be SFIV's most honest character, but there's a lot less subtlety and finesse involved in playing him well than in Super Turbo. This is also now true for Karin.

Zouf Report post Posted October 24, 2015 I don't see how Karin is amazing. She's trash. Her normals are terribad, her antiair is a joke (outside the EX DP), she doesn't have any reversal (again, outside her EX DP), her V skill is a joke, her V-trigger is totally useless.BUT, she has kyo's scissor kick, so that's ok.

purify Report post Posted October 24, 2015 Wow, you're crazy lol. Feels great to me. Her normals DEFINITELY aren't terribad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TekkamanArk Report post Posted October 25, 2015 Karin's really good and has answers for most anything, and playing as only Ken is super lame Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swordsman09 Report post Posted October 25, 2015 I like Ken. I've always been a bit of a 1 character specialist in the games that I play. Even if I find subs, I never take them seriously. I know that sounds lame but that's just me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vulcan422 Report post Posted October 25, 2015 Holy shit Nash got hit hard with the nerf bat. And he still has no good anti airs or reversals. Still pretty fun though.LOL Bison got buffed to the heavens. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
antonymichiru Report post Posted October 25, 2015 I'm really interested in maining Karin and today on eventhubs there is a very intersting article about her...even if I'm reading carefully how to do the "just frame attack" I can't understand.... is there any easier way to explain this? Lol http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2015/oct/25/karin-has-just-frame-attack-street-fighter-5-dragon-punches-may-be-harder-mash-out-and-auto-correct/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TekkamanArk Report post Posted October 25, 2015 Whenever you input the command to dash, you have 1 specific frame you must input the punch on. If you do, it increases in damage, range, and has less recovery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swordsman09 Report post Posted October 25, 2015 Most of the themes have been found. Charlie's theme still sounds awesome!http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2015/oct/25/check-out-character-themes-necalli-karin-ken-m-bison-and-six-others-street-fighter-5/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SoWL Report post Posted October 27, 2015 The conference also had a slide which pretty much confirms Alex as one of the first 6 post-release characters. If the leaks are to be believed, the rest are Ibuki, Juri, Urien, Balrog (Boxer) and Guile. EDIT: Oh yeah, we also got the release date: February 16th!
