Make Ken better than Ryu and I would be the happiest man in the world. 

Oh, How I’ve missed this game. Still better then X Tekken anyday. Hell, if it puts people back on-line with this game then I’m all for it. If it ain’t broke…..

How about they give us something for MvC3 instead of keeping around SF4 ’till the end of time?

Only $9.99

They do have those models for Poison, Hugo, Rolento, and Elena… and the game engine is basically the same… 

More health for Juri and Ibuki. Hoping he’ll decide to add more characters preferably Elena, Karin, Urien and Rolento

Forget about it and run with Darkstalkers 4.

2 new characters

5 new stages
rebalance  Yang, Chun, Guy, Juri, Vega, Ken and T.Hawk 
Make a Rematch option in Ranked Match.
Make PP and BP view-able on the Ranked Match Screen.

EXTRA
Change Akuma and Gouken Theme’s
Change the main menu background picture, and the Character Select Screen background, to make it feel FRESH and NEW.

How much more ass can they make everybody this time?

tut

if they added new characters, i don’t think that would still be sf4.. it would be sf5.
i suggest just adding stages, add costumes, fix the glitches!  this is just RE-TUNING, not another overhaul version.

i don’t think characters need to be buffed or nerfed, otherwise the game would be too different and deem it unbalanced and nonsensical ( like honda’s headbutt going through a fireball, it wouldn’t make sense for him to go through a fireball while doing a headbutt, mechanism failed)… anyone here wants bison to have a fireball? sagat with a rolling attack? t-hawk with a cannon spike?

what i would want for sf5 is better graphics, more fps, more characters, more ultras? and no other gimmicks like gems or anything like that.. focus attack and fadc are enough..

awesome game ono. sf4 series is definitely the best sf and to me the best fighting game ever.. thank you

1. Nerf 99% of the cast
2. Buff Dan
3. Overbuff Dan if needed
4. Make sure that Dan is as better than ”AE Yun” and “Vanilla Sagat”

Summary of requests:

* ONOPLZ, buff my character.
* Low Tier Heroes and rosterbators requesting characters nobody cares about, as if we needed more anyway.
* Stages, as if anyone uses something besides training stage.

Street Fighter IV came out in 2008. Ono plans to juice all the money he can out this game until 2018 lol. But seriously, I wouldn’t mind a new SF now. SF4′s slow is engine is kinda dull and boring compared to most upbeat 2d fighters.

Nerf Blanka, Bison, Buff the shit out of Hakan and Yang.  Perfect game.

tbh I’d be okay with AE2012 as it is if they just did away with the hard-to-blockables. That would remove most of the dumbest crap from the game without really nerfing anyone too much.

Ibuki’s lp mp hp target combo shouldn’t be +1 on block though, that’s just stupid… it’s already an easy-ass hitconfirm being special cancelable and you can easily link a jab afterwards. Considering all that, I’d make it -1 or 0 at best.

Do it. Update the game and reset PP/BP again. It’s why I don’t waste my time with ranked matches anymore.

How bout fixing some of Adons boxes/animations, cuz some of them are really off in the visual department. Maybe lax a bit on his last JK nerf, against Guile, jabs/sweeps in general it seems a tad much. Lastly his AA hitboxes against shallow jump ins seems kinda off. Mostly move has too long a startup or simply propels him further into opponents HK because it lakes some verticality in the hitbox where his hurtbox does not, otherwise its down to timing a close HP/HK.

Maybe some mechanic to make unblockables avoidable. I cant see how myself, but increasing the block timing window by a frame would would make it tough but feasible to escape the situations. However this could.cause some other and possibly worse situation. And id love to.see ryus air tatsu arc changed to somewhere between what is now and what it used to be.

4 months ago I would’ve said that this game doesn’t need a single balance change and that the only thing that should even be considered for any subsequent patches should be basic UI and functionality improvements (fixing the input lag on PS3, “Tournament Mode” setting for the pause button, instant rematch for 2-person Endless, character shuffle for Random character and/or stage select on rematch, displaying Ultra inputs on the character select and VS. screens, button config on the character select screen, etc.). As of the past month or so, that’s no longer the case.

From where we stand now, unblockables look to potentially threaten the long-term viability of SSF4, and that’s a Very Bad Thing. I’d really like to see a fix to try and remove, and curb the rampancy of, all (known and potential) unblockables. Unfortunately, I’m not really certain where one would even begin to address the issue without completely overhauling the game engine–that’s a job for someone a lot smarter than me.

On the subject of tall orders, I’d also like Capcom to buff their netcode. Shit’s bottom-tier for sure.

My list would be:

- Remove hard-to-blockables

- Greatly decrease reversal window

- Make input leniency less lenient

I think those would change the whole game for the better without having to resort to radically overhauling the engine.

Only balance change I’d like to see is Honda’s ex. headbutt getting some armor.

I think in the next version Yang should be a quad-amputee whose only move is to try and bite you. Then this game would be truly balanced.

Fix Yang.

Yeah, let’s not start from scratch and actually try to make a better game. Just add minor improvements to a game that was broken from the get go and is 4x slower than street fighter 2.

remove the fu**ing unblockable grabs
