6 is OK, but I was hoping for at least 8.

I guess it's not confirmed that it's ALL we'll get.

No Cody is heartbreaking for me, but I can't say I don't understand the choices of the first 22 over him

 

[Csr]

No akuma? wtf?

 

[Persona RS]

Any new final character or DLC details in the press release?

No. They talk about the already announced characters and Dhalsin.

 

[vg260]

Yeah, I wanted Cody and Rose, but I get their choices. I typically like the less popular characters.

 

[Lulubop]

Six characters for DLC in 2016?

Six additional characters datamined?

COINCIDENCE?

BASED SRCUB MCGRUBBY

 

[Spinosaurus]

Urien, Guile and Balrog helllll yeah

EDIT: lmao you can tell I like my charge characters :V

 

[Kouichi]

Balrog, Guile, Alex, Urien, Ibuki and Juri essentially just got confirmed.

Wait I thought Balrog referred to Vega. Aren't we still missing one?

 

[Producer]

With 6 DLC characters maybe we will get one during launch period? ie within the first month

 

[Ryce]

Wait I thought Balrog referred to Vega. Aren't we still missing one?

"Bison" was also datamined, which is Balrog's Japanese name.

 

[NoctisVsStar]

You crazy.

Edit nvm I thought you meant 6 characters in one month.

 

[Lulubop]

Wait I thought Balrog referred to Vega. Aren't we still missing one?

No Boxer was found

 

[Kouichi]

"Bison" was also datamined, which is Balrog's Japanese name.

Oh never mind then.

Awesome!

 

[robotzombie]

With 6 DLC characters maybe we will get one during launch period? ie within the first month

I would guess we are getting a character every two months, so probably April we'll get our first DLC character

 

[BadWolf]

People would be angry.

 

[OsirisBlack]

If they make Urien a motion based character like they did with Vega and his kit is even sort of similar to his third strike incarnation he will be my main.

Ick, maybe good DLC characters will come in 2017

 

[FSLink]

Why would anybody get angry as long as unlocking them via fight money isn't stupid outrageous?

 

[Dremark]

Wait I thought Balrog referred to Vega. Aren't we still missing one?

Japanese name Balrog and Vega are already in. The data showed listings for all three though so Bison, Vega and Balrog are all in after the DLC regardless of which name you use.

 

[raven777]

I wonder how much FM it will cost to buy a character.

It's going to make people cry just you watch. the majority are going to end up buying it.

 

[hear4beer]

Because then you can make the argument that the character could have been part of the main cast instead of being sold off post launch (depending on how long after they're released). Also after SfxT people will be incredibly wary of on disk dlc.

 

[vg260]

People want everything released close to launch in the core product because they feel like it was somehow cut out.

 

[sixteen-bit]

It'll be a grind, I'm sure.

 

[NoctisVsStar]

It'll be a grind, I'm sure.

What's your guess?

 

[mnz]

I wonder how much FM it will cost to buy a character.

It will be a lot. People will be pissed.

What's your guess?

Can't really guess since they are changing both sides of the equation, but 15k+ or something if we're going by the beta.

 

[Lulubop]

Looks like we won't have to speculate on characters until 2017 guys.

Again, it won't really matter as long as the fight money system isn't stupid.

I'm sure it'll be a grind, but we'll see how crazy it'll be.

 

[notworksafe]

What's your guess?

20k+

 

[Scrub Mcgrubb]

there's still costume speculation

 

[vg260]

I'm sure it'll be a grind, but we'll see how crazy it'll be.

Regardless of that people would still get mad if they release "too soon". They want the illusion work didn't finish until the after game shipped.

 

[ldcommando]

Alex released first pls, his name starts with "a" and all.

 

[NoctisVsStar]

It will be a lot. People will be pissed.

20k+

Call me crazy 30k-50k

A day before my birthday, so awesome. Thought this was originally coming out in March.

 

[CoyoteSpitfire]

The prospect of Akuma not being added for a year is unbelievable. It's like a dream come true.

 

[FSLink]

I'm guessing somewhere between 10-20k.

 

[PadWarrior]

Wow so no sagat for a year?

 

[Horseress]

20k+

Yep, at least 20k

 

[ZeroTheShadow]

What's your guess?

10k to 20k for sure. Something that will be incredibly difficult for anyone not good at the game to constantly get.

 

[mnz]

Call me crazy 30k-50k

That actually sounds more accurate, since you could get to 10k within the beta. But after release, there will be months between new characters.

 

[vg260]

Now we argue about which leaked character deserves to come out first.

 

[Tizoc]

Wait if we're getting 6 in 2016, and the game launches in Feb. that'd mean 1 character every 6 weeks?

Urien DA GAWD

 

[Beelzebufo]

I guess all of the best characters have already made it in, but I was hoping for some better choices. Sagat? Viper? Rose? Seth? Rufus? Anyone's better than Alex, Ibuki, and Balrog. I'd even take Sakura and Akuma.

At least 3S fans will no longer be able to cry about Ono hating them, he hates SF4 fans.

 

[spindashing]

Those initial 6 are all good but I'd rather have Q or Dudley over Boxer.

hell naw

We need our #FightMoney

Talking about better choices and suggest Seth.

boy

[IntelliHeath]

No akuma? wtf?

I was surprised that we didn't get Akuma sooner since I'm pretty used to see him appeared in the game early.

That Eurogamer article isn't working for me

 

[kirblar]

Yeah, due to the mid-Feb launch, thats about the rate you get w/ CCup 2016 presumably ending the season. There's likely to be deadzones ahead of CCup and EVO, based on what they've said about not wanting to mess w/ metagames prior to big events, so it might be a bit burstier than that when the actual release schedule is revealed.

They took it down, they jumped the gun
