Super Street Fighter IV Arcade changes could hit consoles via patch

Can't wait to see what answers pop up here, considering this isn't SRK.

lol at paid DLC for a game that's already a paid upgrade

Did I hear you have to pay for a Patch? Jezz he did not think of money when he said console patch that brings new moves / sarcasm.

Oro.

pay for a patch, now you have to pay for the stupid mistakes that weren´t fixed in the game, and in order to "hide" this we are going to add a nice slap to the face which is going to be "new" but won´t add anything to the game, but now we have the excuse to charge money for it. Well guess after charging for virtual guns, and people buying them this was the next logical step.

and of course no sign of a p.c. version... now that would be a logical step....

I'd like a dedicated random match up system. Super is better than original SFIV, but I want to go from one match directly to the next. Going back out to a menu screen to confirm I want to look for another match, and then join it is annoying. And don't say "just jump on live" because after I finish a match, it then takes me back and loads the old game and assets only to drop me out to a select screen which then loads the new game assets.

It should be:

online match -> (next opponent/quit? option during end animation) -> next online match

Special/super move DLC? You've got to be kidding me.

This is even worse than DLC characters.

I'm all for patches as long as they improve and/or fix the gameplay experience.

It'd be nice if they'd bring it to the PC even unpatched.

The game should have a tutorial mode, that does more than just plant a dummy in front of you and list off button commands. I need something that goes in depth to say how to perform certain moves, what their advantages are, and when/when not to use them.

I still to this day cannot perform Zangief's ultras. Just showing a picture of the buttons is not enough. The game gives no explanation on what the "pour water all over myself" Hakan move actually does. It's annoying to learn a cool counter move, and then test it out in the wild to be surprised with "oh hey, that won't counter this move, or from that angle".

It can't be that hard to put together a script for each character that has you run through their basic and advanced moves, with periodical freeze frames that offer up that kind of information. Hell, I've been playing M&L3 for the past few weeks on DS, and am getting tutorials thrown at me every chapter. If a game as simple as that uses them, SF4 def should have something.

PLEASE IF SOMEONE CAN HEAR ME : AIR GUARD, PARRY AND ALL SUPER OR ULTRAS AVAILABLE IN A FIGHT... GOD I WANT THIS

Tweak Hakan's super so that people have to do more than just CROUCH to avoid it.

Make the new characters better. The jury's not out on all of them but some of them (Makoto and Hakan especially) have serious flaws.

Redraw Blanka. His model is ugly.

Also, have an option to remove the "easy" input that screws up several moves.

Elena.
Unnerf Makoto. R. Mika, Karin, Skullomania.

Chun Li's Alpha outfit.
Give C.Viper an outfit that doesn't make her breasts look weird.
A Rebecca Chambers outfit for Sakura.
A Sheva Alomar outfit for Elena.
A Roll outfit for Cammy (or R. Mika)
A Geki costume for Guy
Tracksuit for Feilong
Urien skin for Seth
Yun outfit for Gen
Thai gangster suit for Adon
Robo Blanka
kpop star outfit for Juri

the grass stage from Alpha.

I want to be able to parry or block in the air

I'd like to see them add one thing:

fun

4-hit combo = 20% damage (maybe), yet takes 10 hours in the training room to learn the link timing. Then the timing is thrown out when you are in a real match, especially online, so all that time spent learning the combo was wasted.

Boring...

...to play, that is. It's fun to watch though.

Anyone know when Super Street Fighter 4 Turbo EX Hyper Fighting Champion Edition HD Remix is coming out?

I'd like to see Gouki get useful Ultras, but meh...

In all seriousness, I'd like to see them add one thing: the ability to pass a turn, at will, in a lobby with friends. BlazBlue, and other fighters, have had this, why not SFIV?

Other than that, I doubt there would be any game changing things like new characters or stages, but there really doesn't need to be.

PC release please!

Replace the ROFLcopter with an ultra worthy of my status as a former secret-boss character.
And unnerf my lifebar while your at it. Training on hard with %75 life is getting old

So they couldn't patch the first SF4 and made you buy the game over again, now they can patch it?

There's no reason that a paid content patch has to segregate the community, any more than the optional paid characters will do so in the upcoming Blazblue title. It's simple:

Non-optional patch that gives everyone the content to play AGAINST. (i.e. allows people to use the new moves/blah/whatever if they face them online), but doesn't allow you to use them yourself unless you pay for it. Done and done. Lay that fear to rest.

Is it a good idea for Capcom to try to charge for an update? Maybe. If it keeps the game fresh and solid and ever improving without us all having to go out and REALLY segregate the community by releasing Super Street Fighter 4 Hyper Spazzing Edition.

And yeah, SolidSnakeEyes, it's entirely possible. Underlying technology. Sometimes it supports what you want to patch in, sometimes it doesn't. And when you release a whole new game, you can, make changes the users don't see to allow future patches. Your internet skepticism does not become you.

Me? I'd like to see a little tuning - a lot of the new characters still need a little nudge - and some UI changes. The aforementioned "rapid matching" for ranked matches would be really cool. So would 'quick continue' (As in, no, don't return me to character select, let's just fight again.) for those of us losers who still play Arcade Mode. No new characters though please. The roster is already large enough that I forget some of the characters exist until someone picks them against me.

Make hakans ultra cancellable

Hakan,improve his slide to avoid fireballs

fix Hakans auto ranging ex slide

Have an option to turn off "easy inputs"

When finishing a match have it go back to its previous menu instead of completely exiting out of the subsystem.

I want to see R. MIKA in SSFIV!
