What I'm saying is, they didn't just change her face, and people didn't just complain about her face. They complained about the face of American male too, and his was changed. So, you're putting too much emphasis on the race.

Chun Li looked of chinese origin for the first time. One that was not otherworldly attractive/perfect. That was the point of her original face.  It's in line with how characters are being designed today (New Lara Croft, entirety of MK cast in X). Her new face completely throws all that away for typical anime face with all. 

Chris top shot looks like early build face and then updated face based off the same general design. Typical of development. Not comparable.

All of what you say about Chun Li's model are nothing but assumptions. She didn't look chinese to me. The other models in the game are certainly not in line with the models from Tomb Raider or MK. Stylistically speaking, a realistic look wouldn't mix well with the rest of the cast and the art style in place. But that argument would make sense if she really looked Chinese in the first place.
