Street Fighter (SFIV, SSFIV, HDR)

oni's berserker slash is annoying, the front and back version looks the same, thank god it can be beat by random button mashing unlike the real berserker slash.

yun is cheap, but it might take me some time to learn his proper combos and stuff that doesnt involve a dive kick.

yang is not as cheap, but slightly easier learn for me, jab into rekka is really good.

evil ryu is definitely more exciting than normal ryu, because he is more effective up close, have a dive kick and more damaging combos. his pokes are slow though.

i am not pleased with no new trials to learn basic combos of the new characters. thats my thought so far.

For those wondering when it will hit the PS3:

http://uk.playstation.com/psn/games/detail/item371656/Super-Street-Fighter-IV-Arcade-Edition/

Na I'm sure that's only for the disc version, I reckon it will be available to download tomorrow.

Does anyone know what the numbers next to BP and PP mean? I have just had a little run in ranked mode, and bumped into some familiar names all using their mains rather then the new chars. But from all the new cast I think I came across Oni once, E.Ryu once, and Yun/Yang 6 times. I won't be touching them, I think I was losing more because I don't know the matchup at all yet. I did E.Ryu's Super and got thrown out of it! :/ Also, I learnt trying to escape from the corner using air tatsu with E.Ryu is not a good idea... :o
 
You should never tatsu with any shoto any more, they fixed the derp out of the corner crap.

Liking DeeJays buffs:

- Better AA without charge
- 230 damage hit confirm from jabs, 280+ from a jump in (no meter)
- Much safer slide
- Dash U2 is a lot easier, now on par with Guiles FK FADC ultra
- jhk clp clk clp clp clk sobat is a great **** you! combo :D
- much more damage on mgu combo's
- crossup pushes back less so far more damage from cross ups into mgu
- clp clp mk h.sobat works helping to remove a 1 frame link from the game
- better recovery on fireballs
- easier knee shot for scrubs
- better cmp poke

This should place him firmly in the lower mid tier :D

Oni looks like fun, shames there are no trials for the AE characters that would give me an incentive to learn one of them. Played some Abel games, the nerfs haven't stopped me playing my usual way so its all good for me :) I wanna learn a new character, Guy is appealing but his inputs are hard for me
 
Yun does over 350 damage off a jump in with no meter and no 1 frame links... dive kick, command grab, overhead mixups are awesome!

Can't believe Capcom made a character this strong after O.Sagat and Vanilla Sagat...
 
and he has by far the best meter building ability, a easy and safe way to get in with ex dash punch. most damaging super and easy ways to combo into super/ultra.

the only negative he has is he got no fireball and has to be close to do damage.

this is the greatest fighting machine since a-grove bison, old sagat and st akuma capcom have ever created.
 
Evil ryu is appalling imo, such poor health and his attack isn't that great. I got double perfected by a half decent c viper lol. I lost to every yun I played. Yang looks decent, might try him out. Oni can barely be classed as a shoto, hes got good potential though, kind of like an evil gouken

How can capcom spend all this time balancing characters and then unleash yun. Probably a ploy to keep people interested, so in about 3 months they will release a new patch to nerf yun and boost evil ryu, with new costumes?!???
 
i updated my 360 version with the AE Kit checked out a few replays of the new characters and then realised that my 1200MS points were better spent elsewhere....what a crumby release, evil ryu looks utter ****, dont get me started on yun!

Yeah, £10 for 2 god tier characters, 2 chavs wet dreams and 2 delayed release characters is a joke.
Click to expand...

HAHAHA So true! As I paid a tenner for this Im gonna learn one of the new 4 characters. Its CAPCOM hype making people buy this, tbh I kinda regret it now, defo not worth £10 considering the DISC AE version can be bought for £22.

Yun is a joke, got beat by one out of eith Yuns I've played, he spammed dive kick and on wakeup hed pressure so if I jump back/double tap back hed dive kick if I stay and try TT/ground attack he'd back jab or that flying double kick crap. He is beatable but just requires a lot of patience. What peeevd me off the most is Abel recovery from Breathless and hes now not invincible on startup... well done CAPCOM you arse holes.
