Hendo Posted November 17, 2009 Author Share Posted November 17, 2009 Capcom's Seth Killian has demonstrated the confirmed new characters in Super Street Fighter IV in a series of videos over on IGN.All-new Juri is "frankly just not a friendly girl. She's definitely evil. She's got a cybernetic purple eye," according to Killian. She's a Korean Tae Kown Do fighter favouring kicks over punches. As well as traditional TKD moves, she has a fireball attack "with some hit frames on startup" that the player can store while moving around and then unleash as a surprise attack. She also has a counter that allows her to dash behind or away from her opponent or up in the air; she'll take damage but can heal it back. Then there's a pinwheel attack on all three buttons, and a dive-kick with a multiple follow-up in its EX version. "She has to take chances but she has a lot of options," says Killian. T. Hawk and Dee Jay will be more familiar, completing as they do the Street Fighter II roster. T. Hawk is a "giant Native American brawler" with dragon punch and pile-driver moves. He can close in from a distance with his condor dive and a new move called the condor spire, a reverse dragon punch. "T. Hawk's not so dangerous from far away, but when he's up close he's one of the most dangerous characters in the game," says Killian. Dee Jay is all about owning the bottom of the screen, says Killian - his weakness is in the air. "I file Dee Jay under 'Ono's unfinished business'... He's one of the ones to watch, could be one of the strongest characters in the game," said the Capcom man. Juri T. Hawk Dee Jay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hinn888 Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Dee Jay the a strong character o_O Ive never been able to use Dee Jay well at all! Also heard all the characters are unlocked from the beginning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Yeah I heard that too. A mistake imo. Keep all the SF4 ones unlocked fair enough, no point in having to reget all them again, infact that would just piss people off, but give people a reason to play the single player and keep some characters locked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TopGunKnacker Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 yeah definitely ben. if theyre releasing this standalone itll have another 1000g, god knows how theyre going to work that one out, but cheeves for unlocking characters would be a no brainer if i was making it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retroed Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Yeah, I heard on 4 Guys 1UP who had Capcom's Seth Killian as a guest, that all characters are unlocked from the get go, but also that Seth is now even more challenging. Which is probably why the characters are all unlocked. F that boss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hinn888 Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Yea if Seth is hella stronger, i dont mind all the characters unlocked, but in some way it ruins the game, unlocking things just makes u wna play it more and is a satisfying reward. Tekken 6 did not learn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandsomeDead Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Maybe they will put in different rewards than characters. I never did unlock Akuma and the Shen Long or what-ever. You can reward people in different ways to characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Bar the rip off PSN pricing, the reason i never picked up Marvel vs Capcom 2 was because all the characters were unlocked. Granted they had to change a few due to the differences with the Dreamcast, and it took a fucking age to get some of them, but I'd never play it if not to get characters. Not that it's not a good game, but once you get the knack for it you'll just tear through with your favourite character, as I did with SF4 once everyone was unlocked DC it's Gouken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hinn888 Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 MvC2 Failed hard. Just wernt as good as the old retro days Capcom today released a bunch of new Super Street Fighter IV media to the masses, including two gameplay vids of three of the new characters in action and 15 screens of the new bonus modes and such.As well as the gameplay trailers and new screens below, Capcom's Community maestro, Seth Killian, in the latest 4 Guys 1UP podcast (via Examiner) stated that the characters in Super Street Fighter IV won't have to be unlocked... which was one of my qualms with this year's version. Killian stated, "The good news is, and this is something I want to get out there, the thing that really sucked about Seth in the first one is that you have to beat him like 15 times to unlock all the characters. In Super Street Fighter IV, there’s no unlocks. So you can play all the characters right away." Good news indeed! Some new videos and screenshots too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandsomeDead Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Thats the fellow. Weren't they gunning for online play with that? Not playing to unlock stuff but just for the competition that you get in muliplayer? Like some sort of digital arcade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TopGunKnacker Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 hmm dont like it when they refer to 'the three new characters' with no mention of others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hinn888 Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Im just waiting for when they announce the others, i hope its new characters than returning ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you're more casual then playing online isn't going to be much fun. I guess they could throw in some stuff to add some life to the single player, mission modes and all that, which might actually help people learn the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandsomeDead Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 I've heard that Super Street Fighter IV is going to be harder than the regular edition so I guess its only fans that need apply. I don't think this is going to be marketed the same way as the original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TopGunKnacker Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 i thought the challneges and trials did a good job of helping people learn the mechanics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
