Weekly challenges give you 5~7k per week which means 20~28k each month meaning you can unlock 1 character every 3~4 months (not counting leveling up money or any other single player mode money), and Capcom releases 6 characters per year so basically just the weekly challenges can get you to unlock 3or4/6 characters every season.

Yeah, I really don't have an issue with SFV's way of handling things.
I have every DLC character and I didn't pay jack for them. Did it consist of some rage inducing nights of Survival Mode to get as much FM as I did? Yeah. Made me even consider jumping out the window a few times.
Despite that, I like the fact that I have them all and still have enough for a few more characters.

It's been buffed in one way (back to being a Lv1 super) but yeah it's pretty slow right now. Game is still 5 months out so it could easily be sped up by then

I know dahbomb believes they'll remain that way, but it comes off as an early build thing.
Even Chris' boulder punches looked a bit too slow at times. I find it hard to believe orbs is going to remain that slow.

Well no it's not just that. It fires automatically without strider pressing any buttons, and even when he's hitting buttons it doesn't fire more orbs to correspond to that. It just fires the same two orbs at a set interval.

That look ridiculously early 90s in the best way.

SSF4 was the best model, with arcade edition and ultra being both paid DLC upgrades or new discs if you want it to be. The larger lump of characters at once and the name change brings a hell of a lot more people back into the game at once than a character here and there which none of my friends even buy(or return to the game) unless its specifically the one they've been waiting for.
Thats what they should do going forward, if you ask me.

This looks pretty much exactly how I want a versus game to play.
Normally, MvC is visually way to hectic for me to really enjoy. This looks really clean in it's visual language. Nothing too absurd or energetic going on in the background and the characters all look very smooth and distant from the stage itself. Maybe it'll be the first MvC that I'll try!
It's the same reason, I enjoy Mario Kart more than Sonic Racing. The stages and the music are a clean distinction to the hectic gameplay in Mario Kart and way too busy in Sonic Racing for me.

I doubt the artstyle and general look of the game will change, it's 5 months away.
Which is a shame because this looks hideous.

Anyone know what technique X is using here?
Looks like Twin Slasher. Twin Slasher is actually purple colored and is supposed to be two of them. Someone mentioned Wind Cutter, not right because it's thinner than what you see here.

Everyone looks bad
But at the same time, those updates locked balance updates behind a paywall, thus splitting the player-base.
Footage looks about as hectic as previous Vs. games to me. The only difference is it looks like someone turned down the color saturation and contrast. That and the weird faces.
Well, you're right about one part. There is nothing energetic going on. There's absolutely nothing at going on at all. That sucks. They are just boring completely empty uninteresting environments. There doesn't need to be some sort of pshychadelic acid trip going on in the background, but the ones seen so far are absolutely lifeless and uninteresting. There aren't really many visually appealing environmental details, lighting, etc. They might as well be a 2D backdrop. Look at some of the stages in MvC3. Stages like Asgard, Kattelox Island were pretty and colorful and fun with just enough little touches and flair.
Stages are part of what makes fighters visually appealing, and these are not. The merging of locations is an OK idea, but they're not really making the stages that fun or interesting from the little we've seen. That is not a good thing. Of course, we're barely seen anything, so hopefully that changes, but with this being so close, who know what kind of visual changes they can do.

It would suck if after all that wait the footage is the same as yesterdays leak.
The Broken Ska Record

Yeah. I'm hoping we get a bunch of actually new information and not just a re-tread of what's been leaked.
But it would be higher quality video...which is what I want.
...it probably will be but I think they said new gameplay trailer as well? There's also info on how the game plays which is probably more important for most.

A random YT channel uploaded it. It looked like it was spliced footage.
Well the game play footage that leaked looks to be B roll footage, so even if it's the same video, it'll be in trailer form to add hype. If that is the case, hopefully we get some kind of explanation on modes like Capcom has done before

Ryce delivers.
Did Hawkeye seriously just make an "Arrow to the knee" joke?

The Ultron effects look so much better than the others
Capcom knows how to appeal to the cool crowd.

Looks slower and more grounded in reality than MvC3.
I had a hard time following the action in MvC3 cuz of all the things going on...

6 year old memes is pretty typical for Marvel (See Yipes quotes in MvC3)

You can tag mid hypers AHHHH
Look at those dirty resets

Ultron looks so awesome.
Well, I don't mind the rather stiff kinda-2D backgrounds, I disliked a lot of stuff that was going on in SFIV and SFxT in the backgrounds e.g. - but that's me, I can see the appeal in stages where a lot of stuff is going on.

Its not a DHC, it's a tag into Hawkeye's level 3
Dope trailer.
No? He made a variation of the "I've got a bullet with your name on it"
