EventHubs - Famitsu scan shows new SSF4 features, bonus stages

My Movie Collection

I post this from my phone so I can't use the same features as if I was on pc. But anyway.. Update on Tuesday, November 3, 2009 at 7:22PM by FuriousRGD According to posters at the Shoryuken Forums, some of the info contained on these pages is as follows: At Least 2 New Bonus Stages: This is obvious just from the screenshots.  The "wreck the car" and "break the barrels" bonus stages both make a return for Super SF4. 8 Player Support: From what can be seen, Super SF4's online modes will support up to 8 players. "Endless Battle": It is suspected that this is a fancy name for the lobby system.  As so aptly put by a forum poster, hopefully it will be like the "Quarter Match" system that's in Super SF2 HD Remix.  If that is the case, 2 players will play while the rest spectate and talk amongst themselves. "Team Battle": Apparently there is support for 2 vs 2 and 4 vs 4 in Super Street Fighter 4.  "Replay Channel": There will be a channel where players can watch match replays with other players. Voice chat will be enabled so players can discuss replays. My take: If this is true, Capcom has really taken the fans' suggestions and seems to be going above and beyond in making them happen.  Now I await information on how the Ranked and Championship modes will change and, most importantly, how the actual search engine which finds matches for you is improved. IMO the search engine was the biggest weakness of SF4's online component. New info: It has been stated that the article also mentions that the Tournament Mode (Championship Mode in SF4?) will be delivered via DLC. Source: Reno from SRK

some of the best news I've heard so far. Them DP's need to be toned down, and definitly take away the abilitly to trade and still ultra. What I hope they do though, is just give other moves more priority over DP's, so ppl can't just DP without fear of punishment.

Ya know one thing I think would solve that issue is to just take out the ridiculous height we fall at from even a simple lp dp and make them normal heights of descension.  But then again that might make it boring for Ryu players...cuz the dp is still a fun move to pull as I used to do'em myself back in the day.  It's just the power of supers I think should be toned down cuz I sometimes start a 2nd round with more than half of my health already eaten off by a simple trade in into ultra/supers.

At least with this new info coming out we will all have something to talk about since its been pretty dead recently. I hope that the big announcement on friday shows more than the Famitsu Scans perhaps a trailer of the bonus stages etc. I still harbour some hope of a character reveal.

So what do you guys think about the new online modes and the 2 bonus stages?

I even think Fei's simple super by itself should be toned down as well.  I never use it by itself but it also does a ridiculous amount of damage for such a simple move.  Why punish ridiculous and hard combos with low dmg?  His tough fadc ultra with all 3 hits does such a ridiculously low amount of dmg compared to the simple super...Ryu's cancels into his fireballs are nowhere near as tough yet they still do more damage than Fei's fadc...that part I just feel isn't fair.  I also feel like not only Fei but maybe every character should have a 2 hit mid air combo.

I hope rufus gets his ultra combo's toned down he has no damage scaling at all for Gen on the other hand he has to much of it

Splinter Cell Conviction=Splinter Cell stupefied for the masses.

is there a reason why certain characters have less/more HP?

would it make it unbalanced to have all the characters start off with the same HP? that makes more sense to me than having Seth have almost half the HP as Gief or Sagat do

I feel it's too soon for a new character reveal. Juri is in the spotlight because she's completely brand new. Perhaps at the end of the month we will get 3 more... As for the online modes it's only going to get better. I'm just worried they might give it a full price because of the new features like with Halo:ODST.

LOL I think we can all agree on that...I know even Gief & Sagat users are sure to feel like they have an unfair edge yet they still enjoy using those characters but the non humble ones need their egos checked and if this balances the scale then we won't have to put up with losses from players with s.hit attitudes that have too many easy tools to work with.  This dude smashbros101 was a Lariat spammer and didn't do crap and he won with lucky stupid crap.  I get tired of that "uphill climb" battle feel this game has playing against certain characters.  But I do admire Sagats & Giefs that mix in cancels cuz that shows me they can use anybody really and be good with them...just they got the s.hit end of the stick of complaints but only cuz Capcom overpowered them.

Well those 3 characters where revealed about 4 weeks ago, plus we all knew T.Hawk and DeeJay where in Super. Its like imo they only revealed 1 character for me, I think a month spacing between character reveals is good enough. But either way Ono and S-Kill did say we would have more reveals before christmas or end of the year, can't remember exactly.

This has always confused me as well, you would think if everyone had the same health it would be more balanced. Perhaps Capcom want there to be a tier list because you would think Sagat is of course stronger than Chun-li (Please note this is an example dont flame me for being bias).

Yeah I mean no flames needed cuz if you feel like your character is balanced then you haven't put on the other shoe.  There's so many ways to hit each other in very miniscule frame sequences that it's not as simple as giving low, medium, high attacks the exact same power...because of the rhythm of the game.  There are also difficulties in pulling certain combos as opposed to others..so that is another factor as well.  It's hard to balance it but the health thing is definitely a start...but the power of attacks is going to have to be an ongoing equation me thinks...perhaps with an update later if the new ssf4 also has ways for players to win with easier methods.  Make it an even ground where it feels like we all have to put in the same amont of effort in each round...it needs to find a way for it to feel like that for all of us...no matter what character we choose...and apparently that's easier said than done but I think they are trying...we'll just have to see how it turns out.

But there is balance you see.. Might as well give everyone the same moves and call it boring fighter. In some cases they *** up like with El Fuerte. But I believe if Akuma or C Viper had the same health ad Ryu or Sagat they would destroy! The moves, specials, ultras, mix ups and combos all play a part in this. I'm sure they weren't expecting some *** and are probably going to change it in Super. lol. If you gave Fuerte the same health as Zangief it would be mad stupid.

Funny enough I see where you coming from and I agree, theirs a point where no more balance can be done unless you want the same fighter repeated 30 something times.

Ah I like how finally this thread is getting off its feet, felt a bit lonely in here lol.

People are going to have a field day trying to discover changes in Super. Some may be just in their heads. Hopefully Capcom releases log of the nerfs and buffs.

I disagree but that's just my opinion.  Effort feels easier on others' parts sometimes and there are ways to make it not feel that way anymore...and it's not as simple as making everyone's health the same...it's the dmg of attacks.  I mean I know it's not easy for Gief to get up close to players but he only has to do it 3 times and then it's bye bye.  His margin for error is smaller...that's the unbalanced part concerning "effort" and that's what I'm referring to.  It's like having to fight with an arm tied behind my back sometimes.

To be Honest...I think they only revealed ANY of this stuff cause that picture of Ono with T.hawk on the TV behind him leaked.

I really think that if that picture didn't hit the web than they wouldv'e waited  a lot longer to show any of this.
But maybe thats just me being conspiratorial.

also, right now if you evened out everyones HP it'd mess with the tiers (yes), but would it make it "boring fighter"? Definitly not. If Akuma had the normal HP that doesn't affect his ultra which is dumb-hard to land. Or givin Sagat less health doesn't take away his damage output. So there's still going to be advantage in certain matchups, but having an oturight advantage over your opponent before the match even begins seems unfair/illogical to me.

illogical? What do you want the game to be? Or to be based on? Reality? Idk... I want to know the pros and cons of everyone having the same hp.

It's like just now...I lost to a Gief that did nothing but turtle and use lariat to counter everything...I mean how hard is it to do that?  I lost a close one and I had to claw my way inside...it just feels ridiculous and it's funny cuz I let his post round victories play out yet he cut mine short when I had to beat the living doo doo out of him to win the next round...so see that part ticks at my hide I tells ya whut.

Lol I remember bonus stages in SF2 but they were just mildly entertaining to do since after a while it got to be tedious.  Hope they find a way to spice it up.  Timing hits to the barrel drop was kinda fun once they got faster & faster but it seems like a thing that would appeal more to the casual gamer.
