Today's big Street Fighter 5 update is actually two separate massive downloads
Be warned: you're looking at over 16GB coming down the pipe.
Street Fighter 5 gets a huge update today, one that adds a raft of new content as well as the long-awaited cinematic story mode.
But be warned: for some reason Capcom has separated out the patch and the story mode into two, massive downloads. The 1.04 update can be downloaded automatically if you've set your PlayStation 4 up to do so. But the story mode must be downloaded manually from the PlayStation Store.
I turned the office PS4 on and saw, as expected, the 8.38GB update downloading for Street Fighter 5. But once it was complete and installed, I couldn't access the story mode from within the game itself. That's because the story mode is a separate download - despite it all being free.

"We underestimated the popularity of some of the single-player features…"

Now, Street Fighter producer Yoshinori Ono has opened up about these launch woes, admitting the game failed to satisfy those who enjoy the single-player aspect of fighting games.

Raising the bra.
As expected, Capcom's patched out Chun-Li's ridiculous boob physics from Street Fighter 5.

Oddly, Chun-Li's boobs only bounced around when you picked her as player two during character select. You can see the physics in the video, below.
Street Fighter 5's big March update dated, DLC characters temporarily free
In-game shop going live, though Zenny yet to be implemented.
Capcom has dated its big March update for Street Fighter 5, with a patch arriving on March 28th that will introduce features such as Challenge Mode, 8 player lobbies and an online rematch option.
Shortly afterwards, on March 30th, another update lands that will introduce Street Fighter 5's in-game shop as well as Alex, the first DLC character - and in a pleasant twist, Alex will be free.
Capcom's made the decision as it won't have launched the Zenny shop - Street Fighter 5's currency that can be bought for real cash - in time for the new update, so has managed a generous workaround. Alex will only be free up until the point the Zenny shop launches - and there's no word on quite when that will be.

What Street Fighter 5 will - and won't - have at launch
No in-game store, challenge mode or eight-player lobbies until March.
Capcom's outlined exactly what Street Fighter 5 will - and won't - feature when it launches next week.
When Street Fighter 5 launches on PC and PlayStation 4 on 16th February, it'll do so without a number of features you'd expect from a full price fighting game. But players will only have to wait a month for them.
When you complete each character story you unlock their corresponding story mode costume for purchase in the in-game store. All good! Well, no. The in-game store doesn't launch till March. So yes, you will unlock the ability to buy a costume later on. Weird.

Street Fighter 5's Laura announced - officially, this time
Steals Blanka's thunder.
As expected, Capcom has officially announced Laura for Street Fighter 5 at the Brasil Game Show.
Laura Matsuda is a Brazilian who specialises in "Matsuda Jiu-Jitsu", Capcom said. She has a "methodical grapple style" with quick movement who should be good for those who like up close and personal characters. Her speed and command grabs rekindle memories of Street Fighter 4's Abel, and her electricity powers bring to mind fellow Brazilian, Blanka. She's also the first grappler in the Street Fighter series to have a projectile.
Her V-Skill is Linear Movement. Here's the official blurb:
Second Street Fighter 5 beta detailed
Trailer for Laura leaked.
The second Street Fighter 5 beta test begins on 22nd October and ends on 25th October, Capcom has announced.
This beta features cross-platform play between PlayStation 4 and PC, but PC gamers don't get access to the beta until 24th October, which means they only have two days of play time, compared to four days for PS4 gamers.
For beta two, characters Ken, Necalli, Vega and R. Mika will be playable. Rashid will be added in on 23rd October, and Karin added on 24th October. Ryu, Chun-Li, Cammy, Birdie, Nash and M. Bison, who were playable during the first beta, will not be available this time.

Karin, last seen in 1998's Street Fighter Alpha 3 as a rival to Sakura, was unveiled in the video, below. She's the young heiress to the Kanzuki Zaibatsu, a global financial conglomerate. Here's the official blurb:
Her regal and pampered upbringing is what led to her high-maintenance attitude and razor-sharp wit. But behind her flowing golden locks lies a true martial artist obsessed with upholding her family motto, "In all things be victorious!" Karin is well versed in numerous martial arts, which she and her family combined to create a unique "Kanzuki style" of fighting.

"Outside of the servers being shut down for periodic maintenance, we expect everything to run continuously throughout the entire five day beta period," Capcom said, no doubt while knocking on all of the wood in the office.
In fighting game Street Fighter 5, hulking punk rocker Birdie can pick his nose and flick his snot at his opponent. It's what happens when you leave the character idle for a few seconds. Lovely.

The Street Fighter 5 beta isn't working
UPDATE: Beta postponed indefinitely, won't count as pre-order incentive.
UPDATE 28/07/2015 2am: Street Fighter 5's beta test ended up being a colossal failure, mostly on account of the fact that it did not work. After launching on 23rd July, Capcom faced many issues resulting in the servers being taken offline off and on. As such, Capcom has decided to pull the whole hog and reinstate it later once the kinks have been worked out.
"Capcom offers its sincerest apologies to everyone who participated in this first beta test," the publisher said on its Capcom Unity blog. "While the purpose of a beta is to work out these type of issues, it was very clear that the issues we faced were more severe than we were prepared for. After three days of testing, while we were making progress and collecting valuable data, we felt the majority of players were not having a good experience, and the best course of action would be to take the servers offline for extended maintenance. We will be postponing our first beta phase until we believe the experience is going to be a positive one for players."
Capcom further clarified that this botched beta test will not count as one of the pre-order incentives for the upcoming fighting game. "We are still working out the specifics on the incentive, but can confirm that connecting to, or not being able to connect to the initial beta, will not be a factor in receiving this incentive," Capcom clarified.

It runs for five days and is exclusive to the PlayStation 4.
The beta begins with four playable characters: Ryu, Chun Li, Nash and M. Bison. A few days later, Cammy and Birdie will be playable. Capcom said this delayed release is because it's testing its new content delivery system as well as its online net code.

PS4 beta begins in July.

Here's the Birdie blurb, from Capcom's Peter "ComboFiend" Rosas over at Capcom Unity:
