Imagining watching that shit on ESPN, every fight.
Im not familiar with chun's but dante's is incredibly easy and def a game changer.
Chun's is just Reality Stone activation into legs, I believe. I've not tried it myself but I saw a video of it. And wait...it's another issue with Reality Stone! Should we just ban that too?

Nah the other ones are fine since they would be fine to watch on TV

Also doesn't help the defender that stuff like tempest can't be pushblocked so you have to hold dat.
The Dante/Chun stuff is bad but you can't ban something like that because it's impossible to police.
The Spider Man infinite is super obvious. You can't accidentally start doing the infinite. We have banned infinites before, it's not a big deal.
That said this infinite is on a clock so they should just allow it until it is fixed.

What's this Dante Chun tech you guys are talking about
UltraDavid also wants it banned for viewership reasons, and I agree with it. I don't really care if you think stream monsters don't matter but it does matter in terms of the game's competitive growth. It's incredibly short sighted especially in this day and age when more viewers leads to stuff like more sponsorship opportunities for the players, more exposure for the scene, etc.
Having said that it would be hilarious af if this somehow didn't get patched and its EVO got aired on ESPN2 and Disney XD with top 8 being filled with this infinite.
Dante can turn Stinger into an overhead if he cancels into it from a low.
Yeah, I don't know why this is still happening in 2017. I remember in SF4 wondering why nowhere in the game did it mention blanka's ex roll was projectile invincible and thinking "what the hell!?"
I guess that's just a disconnect between us. I prefer the competitive nature of fighting games to stay intact, and you want to watch a hype stream. Those are two different goals that will just never line up.

Sigma looks dumb as fuck without the cape.
Buzz Light Year for real
Buzz Light Year for real
Lmao.
I actually go to tournaments, I just don't want the scene to die over something like that. I was totally cool with Dante's TAC infinite for example and I think most people found that boring af. But this Spidey infinite would be overcentralizing. I'd be more willing to let it rock if everyone had a dumb infinite like that like X-Men vs SF.

Sigma predates BL.
Considering the sales of the game so far, I don't think an infinite that is going to get patched out soon will be the nail in the coffin.

New Pics and Alt Costumes
I know that.
He still looks like Buzz Lightyear without the cape.
His Alt is WAY better. Thank god that's included.

Why make it worse then? But it's a moot point since it's being patched anyway, this is more of a principle thing. I don't think an infinite that would be overcentralizing would be healthy for a competitive scene's growth.
But you would rather just let it rock for the sake of it's always been this way, I just don't think that's realistic in today's world unless you want a scene to die out. Ultrachen also brought this up as well, if it was a tiny scene of just 50 I'd also be cool with the infinite, but I really do think if we could ban an infinite that nobody really likes anyway, for the sake of more growth, that's better to do (but not in general since each ban worthy thing should be looked at within its own context in a meta)
It's also funny that you think I care a lot about how hype something on stream would be. I was known in the Hawaii Smash 4 community for timing people out. Games were 8 minutes each lol
I think that's why it's so great. It's so freeform which allows some janky ass stuff to happen (cinematic move into cinematic move so you can lose track of where your opponent is even at).
I think it's great but when people say Capcom half-assed everything but the gameplay I'm not sure that's even true. I think they came up with this experimental tag system and let it rock without much thought. It's classic Capcom accidentally creating something amazing.

Seperate Charcters are $8 each.
Hope that means they come with the costume as well.

Fits with their previous DLC tactics.
They REALLY want people to buy the season passes rather than piece meal.
You basically pay a super premium if you try to piece meal any Capcom DLC these days. Even when said separate DLC is on sale.
RE7 and DR4 were the start of things.

Oh man, I knew they'd find a way to work the Kirin armor for the Monster Hunter in there hahahaha.

$8 is Arcsy tier
$8 is pretty wild considering SFV characters are, what, $6? Curious as to how much returning characters from MvC3 will cost if they're happening.
Guess it just looks weird the way they render it in the game. Sigma's made up of simple shapes and flat colors except his legs which are covered in wrinkly animal hide.

Yeah, the pass is a must with that ridiculous price. WTF Capcom.

Like even if you want only 3 characters. That puts you at $24 bucks.
Like shit you might as well pay the 6 more bucks to get the rest of them.
Capcom really wants people to go all in.

Looks like they come with the Costume from what the Capcom Unity post is saying.

Fuck now you basically gotta fuck with that season pass
This is my exact position. Only really interested in Sigma, Hunter, and Black Widow.
I think I basically have to not buy the Season Pass at this point if this is what the DLC is going to cost. Even leaving aside the principle of the thing, it's expensive enough without me spending more money on stuff I don't really want.

all according to keikaku
This.
"Everyone who obtained the 2017 Character Pass will automatically get Black Panther, Sigma, Monster Hunter, Winter Soldier, Black Widow, and Venom when they become available. You can also purchase these characters separately for $7.99 each, which includes their premium costumes as seen below."

Why does this game have no FM and is not affiliated at all with the Capcom Fighters Network? Are they just dropping those after SFV?

So does the character pass include the costumes as well or are they going to make us buy those separately?
The pass includes the costumes.
I mean I'm one of the seemingly few people who also thinks the gameplay is half assed but I guess we'll see if people turn on this like they did sf5 in a year.
Congrats. And you're probably getting Asura too.
