Soul Calibur 5 Guest/Bonus/CAS Character Discussion

I voted anime cause, well, I build a ton of them already in CAS mode so why not. Some of them would make a lot more sense than Yoda ever did.
 
Bring over other Smash players, we won't rail on you as hard as SRK does, as long as you keep it in the closet ;)

I plan to. It'll be even easier if Lightning is a guest character.

I've already got one player to pick up the game once it comes out, OkamiBW, the guy who ran the socal tourney stream.

Problem is most of the Irvine CA smashers are more into 2D fighters, but I was able to bring one of them to Tekken 6 (this was a mistake... it really is a game of trivia like someone here said). He'd probably pick SCV if I can convince him to just make a CaS bruce lee character.
 
I just now thought of Agrias and/or Ramza Beoulve from FFTactics....hmm, maybe not though.

Bump. Where's the creativity and imagination? Voice it voraciously, fellow soul fiends. Daishi could be reading this.....
 
Apparently the Dante on the new DmC has been changed to get back to the original looking Dante but younger... If is cool he could be a good guest chara...
 
I don't really see NB going after Assassin's Creed, It kind of fits into the Soul Calibur theme. Guys like Link, Spawn, Heihachi, Yoda, Darth Vader and the Apprentice were complete 180s to the universe of Soul Calibur. Don't think it would be a Final Fantasy character however if it is Lightning I wouldn't be surprised. I expect it to be a Japanese owned property nonetheless. Who knows, maybe they got Snake or Master Chief, fuck that, they got Commander fucking Shepard.

I won't go into too much detail, however if there is one thing I truly want back, it is customary fighting styles because I see no real point in developing characters patterned after other characters. In that regard, I think that SCIII trumped SCIV from the get go as far as CAS.
 
Daishi said (if I remember) that some people won't be returning, or that some will be returning but using different weapons.
That's cool. That's perfect cool. The status quo needs to get toppled if a story's going to advance.

Please let us have their fighting style for Create-A-Soul. Like, say, if Seong Mina doesn't return, I'd like to be able to at least semi-play her with a created char.

.....Pocky Yoshi don't like you no more. *pouts*
 
I want things such as freckles, scars and tattoos to have their own slots, perhaps slots for each arm tattoos a body tattoo and head, all of which contain things such as scars and freckles too.

Also I want the CaS height to scale with the original characters height of the weapon they choose, I.E a CAS talim would be as tall as her and a CaS astaroth would be as tall as him.

I want more unisex weapons, I.E Pyrrah to fight a little less flamboyantly and mitsurugi to close his legs a bit.So that we can make characters that are male with female weapons and for it to not look so ridiculous.

I also would like more customization such as upper body, lower upper body, so like shirts and dresses would be on upper body, and corsets and vests would be on lower upper body, Skirt and pants would be on lower body, and belts and dangly things would be in upper lower bod.

Things such as one glove on one hand would be cool as well, same with pauldrons.

Maybe things such as hair highlights and various accessories as well, like ribbons, clips, etc.
 
Dood If you really want to make a great character creation they havta make it more original. Obviously they should add a height scale. But they should bring back what made the game great. Custom weapons, Im tired of fighting a bunch of people with seigfrieds moveset and weapon. Its not just the way the characters looks that should matter, it should be the way they move and attack.
Nuff said. Who cares to dress like a kitty? But a moveset that lets you move like one would be better.
 
Personally I preferred SC3 customization over SCIV, however I would love to see aforemented things taken into consideration with the next installment. One huge thing for me was that they got rid of custom styles, that really killed it for me on SCIV as I personally can't stand emulating other characters. More in-depth to the physical attributes such as face, height and build would be very welcomed.

Yes yes yes and yes!!!!! I agree 1000000% with you. If we really want original characters we should have custom weapons. I read through every post just to see if anyone else would mention this thank you.

I agree with this so hard; with the exception of Guest character move-sets.

Also, bonus characters who use the CAS styles please; if you go this route, if only so we have a "standard" for tournaments. Too much messed up shit happens due to size/hitbox issues to allow customs in tournament play but allowing bonus characters in SC3 was fine because they were a standardized height and size, something you could practice against and prepare for.

10 points that are a MUST

1- Recycle TONS of official's characters costume parts from past chapters. More detailed and better designed than average CaS generic piece. Less work + overall far superior quality + ability to recreate old classic characters = Epic win for all

2- Recycle all faces and hair too

3- Split left side and right side (shoulders, arms, legs). Add a symmetric option,son if i want on the right arm an istant copy what i've put on left arm i can

4- Separate "legs" from "waist", no more character in speedos

5- Add a skin section,separated from underwear. scars, tatoos, hair, make up, demonic skin and so on

6- Focus more on clothes (quality and quantity)... a lot of options when is about make a complete armor character, but when it come to clotes the only decent option is Raph's duellist jacket, and get spammed over and over

7- Please, as overall % more etnic or anyway real world countries stuff, less fantasy bs

8- Make many multi-color pieces as possible. Single-color pieces scream "i'm a poor CaS generic dude"

9- Bring back the damn sleveless male underwear shirt, no more wierdo Voldo's suit to replace it

10- Last but not last. I don't care how much people will whine, make the character body size (hitbox) identical to the moveset they copy. So your Astaroth char is going to be a giant and your Talim one a dwarf.
No more ingame hitbox difference between CaS and official
