No news. Next new sets are likely to be Dual Pistols and Demon Summoning.
The City of Heroes Community is a special one and I will always look fondly on my times arguing, discussing and playing with you all. Thanks and thanks to the developers for a special experience.
Yes. And by "yes", I mean perhaps. And by "perhaps", I mean maybe. And by "maybe", I mean that it's a possibility. And by "it's a possibility", I mean I stole your lewt and I'm hoping you don't notice until I get out of here.

He beat me to it. I was going to make some smart-alek Street Fighter 2 reference, but since that's covered already, I'll just shut up now.

I wanna make a brawler-escue character and MA is just unfitting.
With that being said, has there been ANY news of Street Fighting in the future?

Nope. Sucks donkey balls doesn't it? Yeah I know.
The development team and this community deserved better than this from NC Soft. Best wishes on your search.
I street fight all the time, lvl 2-6 in Mercy.

Signs point to no, simply because it would probably be very similar to a lot already existing powersets/moves. My best advice would be to roll a Super Strength character and keep it to the more realistic moves (Jab, Punch, Haymaker), take the Fighting Power Pool, and some combination of Jump Kick, Air Superiority, and Flurry, and finally slot up Brawl. Those to me, due to their lack of "shiny"effects, seem like the most "brawler" like. And yes, I realize the amount of stuff you would have to give up to have it work, I am just saying that would probably be your best option.
When you consider it, Street Fighting, at least in animations, would probably be mostly Super Strength combined with a couple of Martial Arts kicks, except most likely weaker in damage output. They could balance that some way, of course (faster recharges, less endurance usage, etc.). Don't get me wrong, I am not saying "Too bad, so sad." I am simply looking at it from the Developer's standpoint. It is, of course, still a possibility for the future.
@Winter. Because I'm Winter. Period.
I am a blaster first, and an alt-oholic second.
If anything the devs are looking for similar moves...
No one knows anything about it, so unless you get a redname posting here you can pretty much close your eyes and scroll through any page on the forum, and have just as much info as everyone else on if street fighting will become a set.
Though yeah its basically a sure thing that dual pistols and demon summoning are the next set considering the devs have said they are going to be in the expansion.
Elec control and street fighting ftw!
