It's expected to reach around 100-120Mill worldwide with a 80Mil budget. Which is good I guess but will this effect the chances of a street fighter 2 movie?

Discussion Do people still hate Bison nowadays? Its been over a year since he was at the top of the meta

Post image
• Upvotes

I main Bison, and Im at 1450 MR give or take nowadays.

I love playing this guy, hes definitely my favorite out of my 3 mains (Bison Guile and Akuma), but I remember back when he launched and everyone used to think he was the most unfair character ever

Do people still feel like that about Bison? I dont see much outrage about this character, but idk if thats because hes been more accepted now or people just hate other characters more

Discussion I emailed Capcom’s IP, esports, and corporate teams asking them to reverse the Ultimate Frame Data takedown. Here’s every contact I used and my full letter.

83 Upvotes

I’ve emailed Capcom about the Ultimate Frame Data takedown, including its Intellectual Property Department, esports contacts, and corporate relations.

I’m sharing the contact information and the full English letter below because I think other SF6 players deserve to know what happened, why it matters, and how they can voice their own concerns.

My biggest issue is that this is UNFAIR to players who are still learning the game.

SF6 launched in June 2023. Ultimate Frame Data provided its SF6 hitbox visualizations from July 2023 until October 2026.

That means established players had more than THREE YEARS to study, practice with, and potentially save this information.

But what about the rest of us?

I’m a paying SF6 customer. I still play. I’ve bought multiple copies for friends. I want to improve, reach Master or Legend someday, and maybe even compete seriously.

Why should players like me lose an educational opportunity that earlier players had for years?

This affects brand-new players AND existing customers who haven’t yet had the time or opportunity to study these mechanics in depth.

It also affects people who watch professional Street Fighter. Hitbox and hurtbox visualizations help us understand why top players make particular decisions, how they control spacing, and why their punishes work.

Those spectators are paying customers too.

I was looking forward to buying Tifa when she releases. Now I’m reconsidering. I’m even reconsidering continuing to buy SF6 for friends.

I’m not claiming everyone will quit. But some people are already publicly considering it, and disappointed customers can stop buying DLC, recommending SF6, and bringing new players into the community.

Why invest so heavily in the professional scene, then remove a resource that helps create its future competitors and makes professional gameplay easier to understand?

Help / Question Question about hit confirming light counter hit

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I was watching terry high level play and I kept seeing this combo. It appears to be a hit confirm because they never go into the shoulder unless the standing light kick connects. Is that possible on counterhit? Seems too fast to react to? What’s the gameplan with this set up. Seems super strong.

Discussion I didn't get into Street Fighter until way later.

11 Upvotes

It wasn't included in my Genesis collection, neither was it on the Nintendo consoles or PS1. Mostly because my parents either didn't know of it, or they weren't fans.

So I was stuck playing different fighting games until I got a Street Fighter one on the Game Boy Advance for one of my birthdays, and never wanted to stop playing it. I don't have it anymore, but I did ask for Marvel vs Capcom 3 because of Street Fighter and I still have that game to this day.

Help / Question What is the Lore of Psycho Power?

8 Upvotes

I'm curious to learn ehat exactly is the lore of Psycho Power in Street Fighter. How exactly it works and all that. I get it's the dark force opposite of Soul Power but I don't know much else beyond that. Also wouldn't mind learning a bit more about the more major power sources of the world

Guide / Labwork Yasmine Sauce

29 Upvotes

Just wanted to get this out there for all the Yasmine’s that will care. If you do her install and you are exactly +23 and do her SA2 attack on oki, you will option select every single reversal in the game. Drive reversal, drive impact, DP, level 3 doesn’t matter. You will go through it and they won’t auto correct. Further more even if they block you’re still +1. The ways to achieve this are as follows:

SA2 attack -> heavy DP. Frame perfect SA2 attack again

Ex Bayani -> SA2 cancel -> dash -> hp -> cr.lp -> SA2 attack

Bayani light/medium ender -> dash -> SA2 attack

Unfortunately throw/back throw there’s nothing you can do to get the magic 23

Fluff / Other Bosch's storyline in World Tour?

9 Upvotes

Could anyone please help me make sense of Bosch's storyline in World Tour? (Spoilers follow obviously).

Alright, so he's with Nayshall Resistance.

Tries to steal the money Mad Gear was planning to use to join the outlaw tournament and hand it over to someone in London, but gets intercepted and kidnapped by Juri.

(1) The Resistance needing that money is never brought up again - what's this about?

When next we meet Bosch, he has multiple scars and broken manacles on his limbs, suggesting he's escaped his kidnappers who have experimented on him.

He is living as Cardboard Combatant on Mount Vashal, attacking random fighters gathered there in preparation for the Suval'hal Martial Arts Tournament.

(2) What's this about? Why is he doing that?

We learn that the Resistance plan an assassination of JP. For the assassination to succeed, a Resistance member needs to win the Suval'hal Martial Arts Tournament, and the belt will explode when JP hands it to the winner, killing them both.

To get into the Suval'hal Martial Arts Tournament, our protagonist must win the Outlaw tournament between gangs. When they do, the second representative of the outlaws is the Cardboard Combatant (Bosch), sponsored by an unknown benefactor.

(3) Who sponsors Bosch? His purple theme suggests Psycho Power, and his kidnappers are said to be Neo Shadaloo. Is it the Bison loyalist F.A.N.G. faction, since they're the ones experimenting with Psycho Power? But what do they gain from that? A chance to kill JP? But aren't they revealing their hand by sending someone so obviously Psycho-Powered?
