IM LOVING THE ROSE CHANGES!

But this is all first round, nothing is set in stone yet.

Red focus seems meh to me, nothing special.

Double ultras could be good for some chars,

thanks for the links john some good info

meh same ultras as they did in x tekken

Guy got his reversal ex tatsu changed to 6 frames! And they took his crunching medium punch away as an anti-air!

They fixed ultra 1. They reduced frames on his sickle kick which is good. Walk speed, ok. They made his heavy shoulder slam useable, it was useless, so that's good.

Rose got buffs! Holy hell, she's like alpha version now.

God damn, sakura, has +2 on block ex tatsu. that's better than +4 AE ... I guess


Strom, are you going to use poison since she plays like Fei?

Glad to see SF4 has butchered another awesome 3S character.

Uryo’s early impressions

"He’s so big, it’s just impossible. The only combo I knew was cr.lk into EX lariat. You can land cr.lp a lot. st.mk is an overhead. His normals are so heavy and slow that he doesn’t have many you can use (I think). He’s just too big.

Feels clunky, little mobility
LK can cancel into Monster Lariat (236+K)
Can’t cancel cr.MP
Walk speed is similar to Makoto’s"
Monster Lariat is punishable"

can't say he's butchered, this is the first round of loc tests. anything can and will change.

Let's hope they bring this version to the new consoles.

Well Makoto and Dudley are pretty much shells of their former selves, I'm not too surprised about Hugo having lost a lot of his tools from 3S. I mean he might be tweaked still, but that seems to be the trend with 3S characters when they get implemented into this game.

[El Diablo]

I think they should reduce the size of Hugo though, I know he's meant to be big but he takes up half the screen!
Back to the the best character in the game, I hope they put some more buffs for gouken in as they've barely touched him would be nice to see the old man reach the potential of his status!

Well of course their 3S incarnations would not fit perfectly in SF4. its a completely different engine.

But can't count out the 3S chars, they are still damn good with a lot of practice. Just that capcom didn't balance it correctly when AE came out and then 2013 was just a semi fix.

With ultra and reading what they been changing seems to me its going to be the best balanced game yet. They are taking into consideration what low tiers are struggling with and how the high tiers are owning.

Jut pray with these loc tests people play to test and give feedback and not just go there to play and win and have fun.
