Two days away.
To be fair i think even the low end diamonds are not that great nowadays i think the real deal is 20k+! Lp i even notice that when i get matched against low end diamonds and Ultra diamonds. The lower ones i feel like they are not much better than your usual plat, but the super and ultra ones 95% of the times are way beyond me where i can't even take a round from them.
Believe me, it's nothing special.
It's just refinement and consistency of stuff you can already do
Not yet. But it's now available for download on PSN: https://store.playstation.com/#!/en...eta)/cid=UP0102-CUSA08733_00-SFVCFN200BETA000

Sounds special enough.
Ed's mix or button holds, close up fighting with a bit of projectile-spice, and rap-infused theme all kinda feel like he's taking some of Cody's SFIV elements with him. With a bit of KoF's Rock and Nelson. It all sounds nice on paper...
It'll be interesting to see how he works out. Kolin's unique mechanics seemed to work out well overall, so it gives me some hope for him.
It really surprised me there haven't done SOMETHING more to the stagnant into and victory animations by now. I really have no idea why they can't at least have alternate voice lines that are made to match the same actions and mouth flaps.
The fact they've gone back and more personality to some of the stages, as well as all the stage special endings, at least shows they're willing to add some thing free liveries to make things more exciting. I'd be that much more hype for new character announcements, if I knew their arrival meant even old characters would show new personality in how they interact with them, y'know? The thought that an eventual Sakura would basically have no interaction with Karin besides a mini story interaction and non-voiced victory text is a disappointing, for example.

Consistency goes out the window for me once a single combo hits me as Akuma.

$30 for them old ass costumes? That is 3/4th of the cost of the base game plus character pass 1 & 2 about a week ago. This is absolutely insane
PSN store link for the battle costumes for the OG 16 SFV characters. $30.

That's good for other people but the absolute bastards. Where was this when I bought every costume.
Hey man, tons of people were paying 30+ for Cammy's battle outfit at launch! lol

Hmm cheaper than buying them all individually, but still quite a bit.
These costumes must have taken quite some work for them to charge them what Capcom does.

I never feel like Costume collections like this are priced to sell. They're priced to make a profit off the people who buy everything... but to really sell numbers once they go down to 50% off on a flash sale or something.
I wish there was a way to add a certain number to cart for a reduced price. SFV isn't the kind of game where I need ever characters costumes, but I'd surely buy a bundle for the few I and my offline friends play.

It's easy, you just have to expect to lose at all times, so you can be surprised whenever you do right things.

Call me when costume packs are $15 old or new. This doesn't even include DLC character battle outfits.

I had forgotten what it felt like to get kicked in the nuts until I read the $30 price tag.

I'm about to spend thirty dollars on some fucking costumes.
God help us all.
Fixed that for you.
I was putzing around with Birdie a few weeks ago, trying him out on an Ultra Gold Akuma. Dude was so great, but man on errant st. mp from me into a combo and he just melted. Felt kinda bad.

trynna get those Ws in before the shadow nerfs hit
Went ahead and set it to download. I wasn't on the last beta since I don't play on PC so I'm keen to see how it's different from the regular game.
Not hyped to see Cammy's air throw tho.

I really hope it was adjusted based on feedback
I hope they "adjusted" it by giving it to FANG or somebody instead.

FANG won't benefit from an air throw, an air dash would be fantastic.
Im already seeing people getting mad at the Beta not working
but dont even bother to read that the beta doesn't go live until Thursday.

There were a lot of fun back-and-forth sets. Check Xian vs Fchamp.
Some really good stuff, Xian vs Tokido, champ and especially Fuudo.
