Q: Please get rid of the shortcuts. Please.
A: I believe the shortcuts have their pros and cons, and with that in mind they are still in the game. However, I will say that we are reconsidering the shoryuken as well as other moves.

Super sf4 may be quite a different game to sf4 with the tweaks im starting to read about .

hinting that evil ryu might be in the game as a hidden character as well as a few other hints ....
also shows vipers new alt and guile with his sunglasses on doing sonic hurricane

Really does sound too good to be true, removing shortcuts and making reversals harder would make the game just too difficult for the newbies.

"with that in mind they are still in the game"

This was the most hype part for me.

Q: What the deal with the kunai you keep teasing us with? How long do you intend to drag this out? Please show us the new characters! I can't wait anymore! C'mon, tell us about the new characters as quickly, quickly, QUICKLY as possible. "No information about the new characters?"
A: A lot of players have been hunting me down about this! Seems like I can't run away any longer. Okay, I got you. Let's do it! I'll be updating on 2/18 (Thurs) next week, so be sure not to miss it!

Shit nigga, thats tomorrow.

They mean the shortcut. You can do df, d, df + p so that it's easier to do in crouch strings, like Sagats cr lk, cr lk, cr lp xx TIIIIGAAAAAAAA UPPAAAAAAA!!!!!

[CrazyMobius]

Maybe they are just talking about the change to the fierce dragon punch. The first hit no longer can be comboed into ultra.

[[NIUE] BIRRY WONG]

The shortcut isnt even df, d, df, p. You can do df, df, P and a dragon will still come out. I would personally like to see them tighten the inputs on it up.

I used to think the same thing, but it was debunked a while ago - try it yourself in the training room... You definitely need the D input to get a DP

[[NIUE] BIRRY WONG]

Fuck, you might be right.

I use the shortcut for lk guac'ing ground tatsus on reaction, but im doing it from a crouching position so im using the down motion anyway. Ill have a look.

Edit: Just tried it in training mode. df, df, P gives me a dragon punch bro.

[Hydro]

huh, impossible Bill

I'm doing it right now as I type, and it's working only if I hit df, d, df.

df, df doesn't give me anything.

Maybe it's different depending on the move but I'm not getting seismos using df, df at all.

curiously enough, df, d, db, b, f also gives you a dp.
