What are footsies?
They may very well not even have started designing her yet since she isn't in the first wave of DLC characters and who knows if she's even in the second.
I wouldn't expect them to spoil her new design either way that far ahead.
So yeah, still think there's hope.

Isn't Footsies just a term for footwork and strategy with spacing for Street Fighter? If it's not then my bad.
what you play under the table with someone you like

Yeah, I think you might be in the minority there. I have used CPU vs CPU in MKX in training mode on highest difficulty just to see what kind of canned combos they programmed in so I could copy them, but for SFV that doesn't apply as much.
But really though, if you're watching CPU vs CPU, you're just going to get a bunch of random junk. I can't fault them at all for not including it.
What they need instead at the very least is some sort of actual replay auto-play feature that just plays uploaded matches with no interaction needed. I think that was in SF4's replay channel, I don't recall. I can't remember if that was in the Beta, but if not, they should implement it. Some sort of auto-play feature, but with filters would be ideal.
I figured it was something along those lines. Thank you.
Alternatively they might feel her design is iconic and keep it the way it currently is. Honestly I think if she was going to get redesigned they would have either already done it or left her out of the story mode.

It's part of it. Playing footsies means playing the neutral mid-range ground game through spacing controlling pokes and whiff punishes.
Me likey
Not to turn this into a debate, but to people like me who grew up playing SFII and such games at home against the CPU mostly, battling the CPU and well as watching them battle is something that is as much part of the series' DNA as multiplayer is. I probably am in the minority nowadays, and I agree that watching other people play is more valuable for improving yourself, but only the CPU / AI controlled versions of characters will ever feel "official" to me from a single player perspective if that makes sense, which is why I wish to see them fight or battle them once in a while.
I think I can actually fault them for not adding a slider to the Versus mode that lets me choose CPU instead of Player 1/2, or for not even including a simple Arcade mode or attract mode as throwbacks to the series roots. Both would have been harmless additions that wouldn't have to come at the expense of anything else. (Online) multiplayer might be the future of the genre, but for me, offline single player modes are what made me fall in love with this genre back in the day. I just hate to see those go when they take so little effort to retain for older loners like me who still buy these games.

Street Fighter V OT| No Options to Select
This is so fucking perfect. LOL
2nd best character 2nd best theme
Well, even if the goal is not for personal improvements, watching actual players play is going to be way more strategic and interesting because there's no way they can ever program the computer for all situations. I do get the nostalgia for an attract mode type thing, though.
I don't know how fighter AI programming works. If they already have computer AI perhaps you can simply toggle it on for both players and the 2P would just react as if it's reading the 1P inputs as it would for human inputs, I dunno. If not everything was going to make the cut, as we've seen, and this would have taken extra programming time, I can understand it being very low priority. I think only a very, very small minority will miss it honestly, even though I do think it should be in there for completeness as well.
I see what you did there.

2nd best character? That's a stretch. 2nd best theme? Probably true. But as long as it is behind RASHID'S THEME

Isn't that what Survival mode is for?

This is pretty good
I'd rather we didn't turn the OT into a shitstorm similar to the content roadmap thread, so I'd rather not have this as a title.

No kidding. We have enough drama threads around the perceived lack of content.
My vote is still for :
Street Fighter V OT| Wire Up before you Rise Up
Something sf4 never had
Like his..nevermind
Yeah, better idea not to have something with a negative connotation about the game in the title even if it is kinda funny.
my vote is still for no subtitle
i still don't get why nearly every game OT on here has some shitty in-joke sub title
Street Fighter V |OT|
i'm in NYC, but i'm not going hunting early... going digital on this one

I mean I find it funny myself, but is the constant shit and negative image the game is going to get until the second OT worth the slight chuckle?
Like his W.A.N.G.
Only second best character because SFV's Bison is such a bad ass version of Bison. Best theme though on the easy.
Yeah, you find it early? PM Please.

I actually like this one as a shitty in-joke, you know like how the game is barebones

Yeah. I won't know if any spots will have it until later today, though.

Street Fighter V |OT| [subtitle coming in March]
That copypaste
I hope training mode is more fully fledged than what was presented in the beta(s). For the record, to cancel a normal/special into a special/super, you just do the special/super motion during the execution of the normal/special. In some cases, such as most normal->special cancels, it might be easier to think of it as prefixing the button for the normal move before the special move motion. So crouching medium kick -> fireball is Down+MK, Down-Torwards, Towards+[any]P.
I don't get it. Does "Wire Up" have some slang meaning that I'm unaware of or is this a reference to using wired arcade sticks?
"Street Fighter V |OT| Wise Up before you Rise Up" might be a bit bland, but does fit the motif of an OT.
EDIT:
Ah, makes sense. Not what my mind jumps to immediately, as I wouldn't even consider using WiFi for MP.

Also, that title wouldn't even make sense anymore in a couple weeks.

If you hear of any spots in NYC that are selling it today, please drop me a line. Dying to pick it up, and all the mom & pop stores I used to frequent in NJ are closed down.
Not really as there is no (character-specific or story-driven) boss there, and I believe you always have to deal with the additional challenge of lifebars not refilling (though I could be mistaken on that last bit).
It's similar, but not the same I'd say.
Jeez, I still can't believe they shipped this game without even including the (full) opening cinematic they created for it and did upload to Youtube. I mean, which (fighting) game starts up to then immediately go to a menu without a title screen or intro of any kind? If an indie game like Skullgirls can easily trump an official SF game in terms of presentation, no. of modes and overall polish, you're doing something wrong no?
Wire as in Ethernet cable. Don't use WiFi

huh?
Yeah, by March it'll be redundant. If deciding on an OT name is too difficult I vote we just go for Street Fighter V |OT| Rise Up.
