Injustice 2 had them without an issue. That really wouldn't work for SF though.

This isn't really a loot box though, this is a FM costume you have to jump through hoops to unlock. They're not going to make it too hard (b/c kids)

Hopefully they won't make it too hard so that as long as you spend the FM for the "chance" and play the mode you can earn them pretty easily without a massive grind.

Otherwise, it's close enough to gambling to suck, because if you burn your FM on "chances" to unlock these and don't you've wasted resources that could have prevented you from spending real money on other content.

I fear it'll be some awful grind, or something similar in difficulty to hard or extreme survival.
 
I'm pretty sure the only metric for deciding what Alpha characters they should bring back was hair color.
So we're just gonna ignore the fact that the four characters brought back just happened to be the most popular in the Alpha series that weren't in SFIV?

I guess we'll also ignore that Sodom is the only remaining SFA character that isn't blond (as far as we know), yet he was one of the first vets considered for SFV.

You should be getting mad at the SFA teams, not the SFV team.

Sodom is supposed to be an American weaboo so I'm sure the Japanese devs will make him blonde haired and blue eyed.
 
By the by, was wondering,Was there anything worthwhile about Sodom and Ingrid's playsyles? Did they ever get repurposed? They're some of the few sf characters I've never touched

If X-Kira's right about the EXBattle datamine, Ingrid's deconfirmed via having an EX-Battle costume. Sodom's been rumored to be in development around the grapevine.

I know, I'm just asking to know how they played. Not sure if just looking up footage will give the answer.

She was as if you combined sf5 karin and kolin and gave her vega's walkspeed.
But she didn't have any kind of big combos.
 
Two part post.

Part 1:

DAMN, Nash's School costume's colour 8 with alternate code is magnifico!

Hey Marvel. You know what F.A.N.G says in the options menu for voices?

"I'll finish you with one hand!"

Of course Ken gets Dante. He'll probably be wearing the gauntlets. GIMME THAT FLOWING TRENCH COAT!!!

p.s. Because of the Ken curse it will be the bad Dante. Sorry everyone.

p.p.s. What if it's DMC2 Dante?!?
 
Finally made Platinum for the first time.
Please clap.

I even ended the night with a 300 point cushion. Yesterday I was low Ultra Gold after spending a couple months in casuals, but I decided to grind out the “Win 80 Ranked Matches” CPT mission for that 40,000 FM before Zeku drops. 30 wins later and now I’m a real boy.

Congrats, I made Platinum in August I think on my PC account. But the truth is that I've completely regressed as a player. Last month I lost a ton of points on my PS4 account with Ryu. I switched to Akuma after that and even though I'm comfortable with him now I'm doing even worse. I started wtih 5200 and am at 4500 right now and was as low as 4100. Crazy Ultra Silver's have a 6/4 match up against me lol.
 
If Nash is indeed Wesker (which makes perfect sense tbh. Teleporting + large focus on glasses + tall and long that can make a flowing coat work well) then FUCK FANG, I'm moving to this different low-tier world.
 
dmc2 dante is worse than DmC dante.
no personality emo king that barely says a word; might as well have not been dante.

DMC4>DMC>DMC3>DmC>DMC2

Booo at Ingrid being a costume! She should be her own character! She should have access to a time machine! When she's not on screen people should ask where she is!
