Anyone care to do better than Google :(

[kenjiharima]

They must be testing the new graphics.

Maybe El is playable.

[Azrael]

I will be there.

[Reno]

I will also be there!

[Nokato]

From what I've heard El Fuerte will be available in the Osaka beta test.

FUCK?!! Who The guy from Battle Arena Toshinden3? Ten Count?

[Are_you_okay?!]

About time for some footage if true, I want to see if he's speedy. I couldn't imagine a tiny luchador being heavy class but hey, Capcom Japan have done blunders before.

Have they explained just how the graphics will be improved? I hope it looks a bit smoother, some of the character models seemed jagged and grainy to me.

There are recent pics up on NEOGAF that show "some" improvements. its mainly hue saturation but it makes the rendering simpler and much clearer. It makes the models look slightly better. Although the only face to me that's gotten better is C-Viper. Ryu doesn't have crackfiend eyes anymore but he still looks like Steve Buscemi.

Lmfao, Steve Buscemi. Yeah the cracked out "I need my fix!" eyes freaked me out when he did his win quote. Smoother models should improve it a lot for me, the rougher textures before bothered me.

Anything else coming out of this Loctest other than improved graphics and a possible El Fuerte appearence? I was hoping for multi-supers and some more stages for eye candy purposes.

I think they're going to test how the Ranking ID cards work also. Not much else has been revealed. The only possible things that could be shown are:

-Playable versions of M.Bison (JP) or Sagat
-Possibly 1 new stage (El Fuerte)
-Depending on whether the Dash Cancelling debacle was true-it might return in this build.
-The requirements for Ultras actually being confirmed and permanent.
-Revisions of existing characters in the current build.


Currently everyone has 1 Super and 1 Ultra. It would be nice to have more than 1 super but I think Ono wants the feel of ST to still be prevalent and I also think that its to eliminate potential issues with supers being juggled into Ultras. Seth already noted that currently C-Viper can combo into her Ultra. I'm not sure if this is something Ono would want since this would guarantee that just about any character that can combo their Ultra would have 100% combos unless there is some SERIOUS scaling of Ultras when comboed which could be possible.


Edit: When I say M.Bison(JP), that means "boxer". Forgot myself for a second, rofl.

参ります！

[Are_you_okay?!]

I figured out the M.Bison Nokato lol, took me a couple of minute but I got it!

Sounds pretty good if they do any of that Nokato, get a lot of questions I have out of the way. My only problem with the one super thing is some were hard as shit to do as a casual gamer (Which seems a selling point for them), hell I still can't do guile's super flash kick, but I have yet to get any amount of time on a stick to relearn everything.

I'm interested in how they will make El Fuerte stand out as a grappler. We have the big, overwhelming grappler in 'Gief. And Abel is the rekka grappler with other options available to him.

Right now I believe he'll work as an SNK grappler, with half circle throws and speed on his side. But that's just an educated guess on my part, I'd still rather have Alex than El Fuerte, but his inclusion seems to be getting slimmer.

About "flash kick supers", just hold Down Back 2sec, the go from there to hcb to Up-Back and hit kick. Its alot easier than trying to do the super the way it says in manuals.

I'll give it a try later, Ive been on a fighting hiatus until I get a proper stick, the like 30 seconds I played on one last time I was doing walking 360's and doing better than I ever was. Really was an eye opener, don't understand why some people are still pad warriors, personal preference I suppose.

Anyways I look forward to some shots from this, some SRK people need to get out there and play, tired of seeing shitty gamers jump on the machines.

Dude seriously Ult.=SDM ver. of Supers, and I believe that not comboing into them would seem kinda stupid, but I do believe that if you can, then I do hope you don't get A LOT of damage scaling (think Dictator's J. HK-->Cr. MP, MP, MK-->Lvl. 3 Super from SFEX games; combo does 50% while stand alone Lvl. 3 does 75%, if anything maybe a small damage boost of 5%)
Still I do hope that if Boxer and Sagat are playable, they won't be in Abel and Viper's area; that's 2 new characters less :/

It's not even just the eyes for me, it's the whole bony cryptkeeper face he's got in some of the pictures. Dude looks like he's 85 and on his deathbed.

[Gutter Trash]

improve E.Honda!!!
cant wait for El Fuerte vids. Hopes that Boxer and Sagat are playable for this test

[Kajiki]

Sorry, but for those of us who can't read Japanese well and don't have kanji fonts installed...

Where is this 3rd loc test? Osaka?

Osaka, High Tech Land, Sega Avion Arcade. Loctest is from Thursday to Sunday.

[The_Shakunetsu]

Wow the ID cards have been shown. I hope to see new videos with new returning characters plus el fuerte moves

[DavDz]

Hope Sagat and Balrog are playable for this test, so more videos of them can be shown.

Michael Jackson says: I'll be there...

FUCK?!! Who The guy from Battle Arena Toshinden3? Ten Count?

Who's bad?

[Kajiki]

Osaka, High Tech Land, Sega Avion Arcade. Loctest is from Thursday to Sunday.

Awesome, thanks. Maybe i'll be there with my brother. We're gonna be in japan from the 20th to the 29th. We're gonna be in tokyo but maybe it'll be worth heading out to osaka for a little day trip to play SFIV. =D

[True Grave]

Bison possibly coming back? Hope so.
