Update will include another V-trigger for each character, a proper arcade mode, and other changes. The update will be free to current SFV owners, and $40 for complete game for new players.
Scheduled launch date is January 16, 2018
Clarification: the game is not actually coming to arcades
Can I just straight up admit that I have no idea what people mean when they say that? Bring back meterless invincible reversals? Stuff like the alpha counter? Or is it like, buttons that you can press with relatively little risk while stuck in the corner? Everybody says that but I get the feeling everybody is thinking of something else when they say that.

>Arcade Edition >not actually coming to arcades
At least they aren't gonna go Maximum Overjew and charge me for the update when they said before that there would be no paid re-releases. Just a free patch, like Dark Souls 2 should've done but didn't and I still refuse to buy any FromSoftware games ever since.
Gavin Thomas
If I buy the game right now, will I get all DLC?
Daniel Lewis
No.
If you buy the AE coming out in January, it'll have the twelve characters of Season 1 and Season 2 there. If you buy the regular version of the game currently out, you'll only get the free updates like the Arcade Mode, new UI, Extra Battle Mode, etc., but you'd still have to get the DLC characters through the usual methods (with in-game Fight Money or with real money).
Aiden Williams
Damn I wanted new V skills as well. Fuck Chun Li's, not even pros use that shit.
Caleb Thompson
Interested in new v-triggers, really hoping that means new v-skills too because I am ass with Giefs parry
Grayson Torres
where da new supers where da new mechanic
Zachary Wood
nice
Adrian Evans
>The update will be free to current SFV owners
Mate.
Chase Johnson
>Street fighter V got an arcade mode with comic endings >MVCI got an arcade mode with no endings how embarrassing
Evan Flores
As someone who doesn't give a shit about PvP, this sounds like its actually worth trying now. Lots of stuff to do.
Hunter Adams
delet AA jab
6 arcade modes. They fucking funneled the money Disney gave them to this game.
David Cook
>Half of SFV's dlc budget
Caleb Miller
Daily reminder to kill yourself, Boco
Jayden Flores
fuck off dude
Luis Reed
It'll probably get a balance patch after Capcom Cup and before Evo Japan happens, which is right when this game comes out. It won't get any more defensive options though, that would basically have to be built into the core game.
Mason Clark
Holy shit. They fucking robbed them blind. Jesus
Jeremiah Morris
Yes sir...
Sebastian Jackson
>Just a free patch, like Dark Souls 2 should've done but didn't and I still refuse to buy any FromSoftware games ever since. Good to see someone else who feels this way. Fuck those greedy bastards.
Christian Jones
except the fact that disney gave no money to capcom, capcom gave Disney part of the revenue for esports in return for not paying for the license. And thats not even Disney thats marvel
Colton Roberts
Is it completely overhauling the gameplay? Otherwise I don't give a fuck.
Isaiah Garcia
I hope there are gameplay changes outside of just adding a new V trigger.
Brandon Gonzalez
They're releasing a cabinet in Japan that runs on the Steam version
Colton Richardson
>As someone who doesn't give a shit about PvP >in a fighting game Just when I think you can't get any worse
Noah Bell
You must be trolling
Hudson Cruz
>And thats not even Disney thats marvel That's like saying you're not sucking ME off, you're sucking my dick off. Disney owns Marvel. It's Disney.
Nicholas Green
game rewards random yolo play too much, making mid-level play a nightmare, especially if youre trying to learn REAL footsies.
Jacob Jackson
>tfw went back to playing USF4 Hey, this is fun!
Nathaniel Foster
except no its not, or did you forget how kevin fiege begged disney to buy marvel studios completely from marvel. Thats kind of a big deal as now the movies are directly under disney while the rest of it is marvel. Or how about the time Marvel said no when disney asked if they could use marvel characters for disney infinity and only gave in if disney let marvel decide the characters and only after the game already released.
So no its nothing like your analogy
Joseph Hernandez
The return of the Japanese gods. Its over for america now.
Eli Sullivan
we've managed to live with meterless reversals for the last 30 years why should they be gone all of a sudden? maybe make backdashes have some strike invuln instead of just being grab invuln, because as it stands having them be in forced CH state while not having any sort of strike invuln is just bizarre. the universal nerf to v-reversals in s2 was also unnecessary, and should probably be reverted or maybe a retooling of v-reversals on an individual basis is a good idea.
David Young
Because SFV at it's core is the anti-thesis of SFIV and everyone is an 09'er
Luis Campbell
I'm not touching that shit until the fix the visuals, god it still looks awful.
Noah Ward
Yeah, I started playing USF4 again after two years or however the fuck long it's been and it's still fun, although obviously the player pool is a lot smaller. Competition really isn't much worse, because most of the people who still play it have some idea what they're doing.
Brayden Wright
I know its not a big issue anymore but why not fix the face?
Bentley Smith
You don't look any better.
Landon Adams
How would you know? Mr Mous?
Andrew Anderson
How the fuck did a fighting game not have an arcade mode for 2 years after launch?
Lucas Jones
normally uppercut special moves have invincibility frames on startup, making them good reversals. but in sf5 only EX uppercuts are fully invincible, meaning a defensive player is almost fucked if they dont have bar.
Caleb Nguyen
I know, everything clips into each other. It's really fucking shitty.
Logan Gonzalez
Modern Capcom
Elijah Sullivan
I'm thinking of getting it on ps4. I really miss all those characters.
Hunter Anderson
Didn't Capcom specifically say they weren't going to do any new editions to this game?
Carson Cook
I hope they change the announcer so he's not a generic monotone esports speaker. The game needs more pizzazz.
Julian Foster
>free update
David Perry
That you have to pay for. It says in the fine print at the end of the trailer that the updates are free if you already own the base game.
No paid editions. Which this is. You get the upgrade as long as you own the original game. The 39.99 is basically a GOTY edition with the DLC in it.
Brandon Morris
Why did USF4 do everything better but SFV is the new game?
Ethan Scott
They said you'd only ever have to buy one disc and they wouldn't charge for balance updates, you can also unlock the DLC characters with ingame currency
Luke Rodriguez
I'll certainly take it over a paid update.
Jose Watson
>tfw they'll never bring back the Alpha combos from the previous builds
Anthony Wood
Because people had lower standards when IV came out.
Lucas Cox
People really got hyped with ultra. But the characters they added in ultra are just ported over characters from Cross Tekken. Its why Elena's hit boxes were so messed up and Hugo's.
Ryder Walker
I don't know, why has every SF game after Super Turbo failed to surpass it?
William Reed
which people are still bitching about. I know they made it a grind if your not hardcore into the game but isn't that the point, if you like SFV and play every day you will have all the content if you only play it casually you will have to pay.
Robert Morales
I have not played SFV, what do people dislike about it compared to the previous titles?
Nicholas Sanchez
ultra was not some holy grail, it was a piece of shit too in its own ways
Brayden Hughes
SF4 brought back fighting games despite being trash until ultra where it now rests as ok but worse than 2 and 3
Camden Ortiz
The character models clip through themselves but the gameplay is average. Also, paywalls
Justin Ross
4 got a lot of shit at launch too as it was considered a massive step down from 3rd Strike, and each new iteration of 4 carried its own problems. But people were just glad there was a new game to play after 10 fucking years of 3rd Strike.
I think FChamp said it best, it's a SF game that's trying more to be Marvel.
Aaron Adams
Yea, it caught me off guard.
Jonathan Gomez
they should worry about the hair clipping through his shoulder first
Jack Hughes
I bought it at launch, still play semi-regularly, and have all the dlc characters. The only thing I ever spent money on was the gief macho man costume. SFV being treated as a platform beats the fuck out of the yearly new editions
Logan Wood
>Post yfw WE'RE NEVER GONNA RE-RELEASE STREET FIGHTER 5
Gabriel Long
If you're talking about normal 2 then I think USF4 is better than it.
John Reed
That's her new V-Trigger. All those images are in training mode, and Nadeshiko must've been on screen long enough for Mika's bar to refill.
Justin Rogers
My only hope is that MvCI lasts long enough to become good. Which it probably will, but still.
Dominic Perry
I'm talking about the final versions of each game, 3rd strike and ST are better than Ultra 4
Isaiah King
Well yeah, SF2 vanilla is a busted mess. Everyone knows that when you're talking about 2 you're talking about ST, and 3rd Strike for 3.
Jackson Cox
So what fighting games are you fags playing since Capcom has gone to shit instead of SFV and Marvel Infinite.
I play KI, Skullgirls, and Pokken, which is really unfortunately underrated as a competitive game
Jeremiah Lopez
I am talking about the people who play once in a blue moon who complain that it takes to long to unlock characters. No matter how shitty anyone thinks the characters look it costs money to make them they do not want everyone to get all the characters that would pretty much make it pointless for them
Jack Gonzalez
I've just been playing a lot of MvCI
Thomas Gonzalez
get weird al like for that billy and mandy arena fighter
Julian Hall
As soon as DBFZ got announced I stopped caring about infinite but I'll probably pick up it's ultimate edition down the road if the price is right
Alexander Turner
I play sfv. Also melee and guilty gear
Andrew Hall
I play SFV and Tekken, looking forward to DBFZ.
Tyler Fisher
SFV and Rev2 mostly I play ST and 3rd strike with friends time to time
Benjamin Hernandez
shit you bring up a good point. well at least this means ill get to use birdie's new sparrowhawk stance vtrigger AND eat the donuts
Benjamin Russell
The only thing I want back from SFIV is all the flare. The menus and announcer are hype as fuck. I get unhype getting greeted by the minimalistic designs of SFV.
Dominic Lopez
I have been out of this for a while,have they fixed Akuma's fucking stupid retard hairline and bun?
Easton Murphy
The only thing i don't like when it comes to discussion of Infinite is the complete 180 this board has done on MvC3. It used to be one of the most disliked games on this board, people would never shut up about Touch of Death or or that the meta is dominated by certain characters, and that it;'s the most boring game to watch at evo.
Now? People won't stop praising it. It's Zelda Syndrome.
Cameron Ramirez
NOSTALGIA BIRDIE COSTUME WHEN
Daniel Walker
Neutral game is fucking weak. A strong neutral is what separated SF from anime fighters and MK, and now that's gone.
Asher Stewart
Its because people just parrot what they hear.
Xavier Gutierrez
Looks pretty good, I'm hype for it.
Cameron Wright
>4 got a lot of shit at launch too as it was considered a massive step down from 3rd Strike
Nobody non-Japanese actually liked 3S.
Charles Diaz
>guys we're not going to make updated versions of the game >a few years pass >here's the updated version of the game you guys so who saw this coming
Andrew Long
Well I mean you don't have to pay for it if you already have the base game so you lose nothing.
Adam Sanders
To be fair overly strong neutrals are fucking boring. Look at smash 4
Brayden Reed
Aside from MvC2, it was all we were playing.
Justin Martin
It's almost as if the games that came afterwards were worse.
