Could someone link me to where it was stated that costumes aren't unlockable? I'd still get them on a sale though :V
 
First time i've ever bought a game from Best Buy

Another fucking statue...ugh. Chun Li and Cammy alt look great. And rather than a beard they should have maybe aged Ryu with a gray beard

Capcom stated during EVO that the DLC can be unlocked by playing the game or by buying from the store. At most this'd be an early unlock as I posted previously.
This game is coming to Steam, been stated since Day 1.

Gameplay dlc, updates, characters and so.
Costumes are going to be under payment.

Since they said that all DLC will be free, which I assume includes the outfits, these outfits can either be bought or unlocked by playing the game.

In which case they'd just be a quick unlock in this case :p
Cosmetic DLC won't be able to be unlocked with fight money, I can tell you that for sure. Any game like this anything gameplay-related can be unlocked with the in-game currency but anything like skins needs to be bought with real money. League, Heroes of the Storm, etc. all do this.

Dota 2 is the only exception since you can get items as drops. (albeit at a very low percentage)

PS4 only? I want the PC version because I can't use my Saturn USB pad on the ps4...
They'll be available for purchase down the line on the other platforms.

Those alt costumes look great, especially Ryu. Not interested in the CE though. My future Ryu amiibo will be enough.

They're just cosmetics of course, but damn If splitting them up as seperate pre-order bonuses from different retailers isn't just a dumb fucking thing to do.

Given that I don't live in north america and have no realistic way of getting any of these outfits, it's especially annoying. At least none of the outfits are Mika outfits...yet.

I hate the Chun alt, I can't put my finger on it but I just can't stand it.

Probably the fact that she has long hair, which I don't think she has at all in SF4, and I don't think I've seen it in earlier SF games either.

The Ryu and Chun alts are excellent.

Also no way they don't sell all of these separately later, they did this with SF4 and MvC3 where you got one "pack" as pre-order bonus, but those packs went up for sale for everyone not too much later.

I'd fully expect that these will be some of the costumes that they let you earn with fight money. Although there will likely be an exclusivity window for them.

bearded ryu is an awesome idea
but am i the only one who thinks it looks weird? like they photoshopped a beard onto a picture of standard ryu or something
i can't quite put my finger on it, but it looks "off"

Pretty sure Capcom has been stressing that all gameplay related DLC will be unlockable in-game. So people will most likely have to fork over some Bison dollars if they want any of these costumes (which I am 100% positive will all be available regardless of platform, if not separately, then in packs, after launch).

physical disc is useless... SFV will never leave my PS4.

Assuming that the PC version doesn't come after console one the gamestop costume will likely be the pre-order bonus and the others will be day 1 dlc.
