The Official Street Fighter 6 thread! We Open world fighting now?!

[Black Magisterialness]

so how do you think the story mode will be guys?

we create a character and then interact with the cast?

Similar to Soul Calibur III. You create a fighter and travel Metro City stopping some foolish Shadoloo plot. However, I think you should be able to unlock costume elements and moves from SF characters. That way there could be a mode where you take your created fighter online against ONLY OTHER created fighters.
That would be fire.

It will be. They usually release them in February

Ed boon is one of the more refreshing people in gaming history. Great sense of humor and legitimately loves his product like Miayamoto

 

[CarltonJunior]

Yeah Balrog is my guy. I hope they don’t think Luke suffices for a boxing rep.

Ed's the boxing rep. How good a rep he will be remains to be seen

Some Street Fighter 6 details from IGN Japan - Fighting Ground, World Tour and Battle Hub feel like separate games due to their scope - World Tour goes beyond Metro City and will have more locations - Jamie is not drinking alcohol but a.. "special drink" https://jp.ign.com/street-fighter-6/60367/interview/63

Interesting bits about the development of SF6 - dev started in 2018 with a 92-page document that already included the three main pillars - dev team is highly motivated and gives daily suggestions - director Nakayama says he has never experienced such a positive dev process

Good shyt.

 

[CarltonJunior]

I wonder what the story is behind ono and how he got demoted then.

The initial report on that is he had a draft of sf6 that tested poorly internally and they canned him

 

[BlackMajik]

That's good news. Seems like they're headed in the right direction

Cuz SF5 was TRASH

If he plays anything like SFV Ed, he'll be trash.

One thing I've noticed is that Ryu's heavy fireballs are fast af and his moves always seemed to connect at max range.

In SFV, he spent 3 or so seasons with Cr. MK into fireball not working because his whole foot didn't have a hitbox.

Looks like they're really allowing characters to be good in this game and counting on the universal mechanics to keep things in control. Roughly the opposite of what they did in SFV.

Hopefully, they are in. You just can't kill off Lord Bison.

This is not true

I know the game has its detractors but there are few fighting games in existence that are as balanced as Street Fighter 5

There hasn't been a character lower than C tier for the duration of the game, and the only argument for possible D tier was Gill. The game has hardly any 7-3 matchups. That's RARE for any fighting game

You won't find a set of top 32s, across any Street Fighter game, with more diversity than SF5

And no I'm not saying there are no "bad" characters in SF5, but SF5 bad is a lot better than most fgs

A proportionally high percentage of that cast has eaten good in tournaments

The world tour/battle hub sounds like capcom is taking a page out of the NBA 2K series and pretty much making there own version of Mypark and Myplayer. If that's the case day one no questions asked.
