SCV- New CHARACTER ideas

-Bangoo of course. Being an Apache, Bangoo can be a Native American representative, since Rock was technically British, migrating to the United States. Since Astaroth will likely replace Rock in terms of the moveset, Bangoo could contain something different, like tomahawks, or bow and arrows. With Bangoo's structure probably being brute and husky, I could suggest tomahawks.

-Li Long and Chie's daughter. Since the child is in their early 20's, likely that this child will be female, and with Chie being the head of the Fuma clan, will likely be a kunoichi. I would much have her daughter be involved in Japan's feudal era as Mitsurugi is (or at least people like Nobunaga Oda have mentioned him to be a skilled samurai). Maybe being a bodyguard to a certain warlord, or a wife of an heir. As far as personality, she should be somewhat like Taki, but more cold-hearted. Kind of like the opposite of Natsu. Her weapon could be either the sword & shuriken style (from SC3), or a large bladed tessen.

Other new characters

African character, of course. One tribe I think stood out at that time was the Kingdom of Kongo, who were in conflict with the Portuguese at the time. I was thinking Zulu at first, but they weren't established until the 1700s, and wasn't wide until the 1800s under Shaka Zulu's rule. This character could be all-around athletic and uses both speed and brute force to the advantage. This character could contain either the spear and shield, or Ngulu and doko sword set. Ngulu sword looks like a hook sword, while the doko sword looks like a longer kunai sword.

Portuguese representative, who is in conflict with the African representative. This character could also be a Portuguese who migrated to Brazil. Christianity could be a heavy influence in this character since they actually introduced it to Japan, as well as firearms. The weapon of choice could possibly be a musket, or bayonet.
 
Why does everyone want a tribal african character so badly? Im not racist at all. but I'm not fond of the idea. Is that all people see Africans do in combat? Why not a cribbean pirate of medium class replacing Yun-Seung? Treasure hunters who want the swords to conquer the seas?

1."Is that all people see Africans do in combat?" What are you actually referring to in this quote?

2. Even then that person would still be from Africa, speaking an African language, probably a slave at that time. Why in desperate need of a pirate though? Seems too typical, and the story idea would seem too predictable. In addition, likely that pirate in the 1600s would be European. Not African, nor Caribbean.

3. An African warrior would add uniqueness from the cast than the whole European looks that most of the characters contain.
 
Because an african character can add something to the game? I mean why not? They can bring just as much as an italian man or a german girl.

I just want my weapons to come in, as long as they get the genders right on them I'm happy.
I get what you're saying and I agree. But thats not what I mean.

1. Who ever suggested the African tribal. I merely say that they shouldnt have to be represented in that way only. Its too stereotypical.

2.Not the heritage, Im not liking the suggested fighting style.

3.African characters can be anything they want to be. They shouldn't just be limited to spears and sabres.

It's not stereotypical. It's "realistic". That's what was involved in Africa.

Now the pirate idea. That was stereotypical.

2.Not the heritage, Im not liking the suggested fighting style.

There have been more than one suggestions of weapons from other users.

3.African characters can be anything they want to be. They shouldn't just be limited to just spears and sabres.
That's really the only weapons they've had during that time, because Africa isn't very "savvy" with weapon choices, yes. That's why I suggested the hook sword and knife set from the earlier post, because it is their traditional weapons and they can do plenty of possibilities with it.

I think stereotypical isn't even a problem in this game anymore. We have Bruce Presley, a Chinese monk, a knight in "shining armor", Kill Bill's predecessor, Miyamoto Musashi, ninja in spandex, a gothic lolita, vampires, werewolves...

Tell me, will a tribal character not fit?

Depends on the design. If the tribal was as detailed as Kilik's Tiger outfit and had a likable personality then I have no problem.

Namco won't be stupid enough to give the character the vocabulary of a caveman, so you shouldn't be complaining nor rejecting the idea.
 
^^ Only Capcom would do such a thing :p


I'd like to see a spear and shield, smaller axe user, dagger, gauntlet.
 
'Nuff with the shields already :P I wouldn't mind if they brought in something totally unique like Tira's ringblade or Ivy's snake sword. With that said, I should probably hold my tongue. Recently, 'unique' has become synonymous with 'weird' (See : Zwei + Ein)
 
We have a heterosexual guy fighting alongside a flying wolf who pops out dimensions and a fortune teller who fights with a floating magic crystal ball...
SCREW YOUR REALISTIC CRICLE!
I hated Elena Design from Street Fighter 3rd strike, so I want to see something different.
And to prepare everyone, I'll be pushing everyone recommend character idea to be black. Just a heads up
