It's pretty awesome that Alex has a free trial, I have no idea if I want to play him and I don't want to sink all of my fight money on him.
 
"Finally, as a way of saying thanks for everyone’s patience and understanding throughout the beta phases and game launch we will be making Ryu and Chun-Li’s story mode costumes available for free to all users on March 30 as well. This is an 80,000 Fight Money value, almost the full value of a DLC character."

LOOOOOL piss off Crapcom, free fuggin costumes for the travesty that this game is, kiss my ass.

It only took them a month to actually announce their "March update" release date.

God.

LMAO. They're just giving two story outfits out? Those should be fucking free unlocks. Their DLC outfits should be the store outfits. Fucking Capcom failing at microtransactions, AGAIN.

You can always not play it if you don't like it.

I wish they'd let you pick the characters you get the free costumes for, but otherwise it's a nice gesture. Also I love the "try before you buy" thing they're doing with Alex. Too bad it's not standard with all DLC characters, like a free week or something.

I'm excited for character tutorials and challenges too. Sounds like a good first patch.

Almost every returning character has got a new version of their old theme or at least part of it in some way. They've already made so many versions of Jazzy NYC before so I'm sure we'll see a new version here

Hope you're right and history agrees with you. Still hesitant to assume anything from Capcom right now until it's confirmed.

Not to be too salty about this but why did I buy the season pass again? I could be playing Alex, and others, for free, until they get "Zenny" in order.

I mean they're basically free with fight money. They're just making those two cost 0 fight money as a thanks/lol apology.

I wonder what's the status of a perm fix for RQers tho

They're probably still working on it. If the past six weeks have taught me anything it's that if Capcom hasn't publicly announced something then it's probably not implemented yet.

Are they really limiting new stages to the season pass? Or making people who don't have the season pass buy them as DLC? Why Capcom why?

Can't you already do that in training mode?

Training mode != Actual mode. BZZZZZZZZZZZZT. Please try again.

You misunderstand. Those SHOULDN'T FUCKING BE "FIGHT MONEY" UNLOCKS IN THE FIRST DAMN PLACE Two minutes work smashing X and then LP to two fights and you have to spend 40,000 FM to unlock the outfits? Fuck outta here, Capcom.

They just said that Season pass owners will be getting a free stage.
"Additionally, we will be giving all Season Pass users a free, brand new stage in the near future!"

Doesn't say that all stages in the store will be tied to the season pass. Though it most likely will be zenny-exclusive.

Once the Zenny fix is in you get to keep everyone whereas everyone else will need to buy them again. That's what you're paying for. And they also said season pass users are getting exclusive costumes and a new stage.

It was either this or delay Alex a few months and that would have just pissed off everyone.

Premium costumes.

To be fair I have FM to all first year chars... I will just get the season pass due the premium costumes.

They were prolly going to delay and had to compromise by delaying the Zenny store.

Good call.
Yup.

I think the incentives for the Season Passers are pretty good too.
I GIVE MY THUMBS UP TO CAPCOM

They really stretched it to the very END of the month. :p

Anyways, can't wait, I'll take a Pokkén break to try Alex out for sure.

You are right, it doesn't say all stages are tied to the season pass I shouldn't have jumped the gun. It is worrying, but I guess they need to put in FM sinks, and this will be one of those sinks.

I don't disagree, geez. Maybe you should have made your original post more clear in the first place. Plus I don't think just 2 story mode costume unlocks is a good bonus at all, lol.
 
I guess they were trying to make the most of this patch by fixing issues that were constantly coming up throughout February and March.

Can't wait to try out Alex
