A teaser trailer would be appreciated in lieu of the full-length one to help build hype, much like w/ Ono's mystery pics on twitter. That 3s of boots walking in the earlier trailer made a lot of people very excited.
Also, is the trailer playing in-game the first time players log in? If not, it should be.

Alex is pretty fun, he seems to have a ton of options. More so than any other character. Looks to be a better grappler than Zangief and less awkward than R. Mika.
Don't worry! People with level heads and a bit of logic figured this was the idea. Excited to try Alex tonight!
I think Birdie is a good comparison, but having traded Birdie's zoning kit for a much more aggressive approach w/ more tools to get in.
Thanks for the insight, makes total sense now.

This is the first I've seen of Alex! I like how he's always stretching. I do that neck thing a lot too.
Alex is basically me.

It makes sense, but I kinda wished that you guys launched this trailer during either Final Round or NCR. But oh well, Alex is out now. Thanks for the insightful post, wbacon.

They should have been released this trailer while ago to create hype and announce the character and its release date, and to release a different trailer today. But nice to see that Alex is finally here.
Survival Mode is great, and there is no problem by unlocking colors there in a similar way that it has been done in a number of previous fighting games.

He's out now FREE to play until the Zenny store becomes available which is at an unknown time
I imagine you posted this with one side of your mouth twitching and a smashed controller next to you.
If not, I guess there's always somebody.

I thought this system would be more accessible for fans since it might motivate fans to do more with the characters and maybe learn how to play better with their characters.
Unlock #3 color by doing easy survival
Unlock #4 and #5 color by doing normal survival
Unlock #6 color by finishing your character story mode
Unlock #7 by finishing first 5 trials
Unlock #8 by finishing all trials
Unlock #9 by getting your character to level 10
Unlock #10 by winning 5 or 10 online matches with your characters
The costumes we purchased with Zenny or Fight Money should come with all colors. Period.
These are good ideas. SFV needs to take the Smash Bros. approach of having multiple ways to unlock things. You should be able to get the first 10 colors from survival, leveling up, FM, or even Zenny if you're absolutely lazy (as long as it's still relatively easy to get colors without paying).

It's no brainer that Capcom is planning to do that but I'm surprised that we didn't get a pop up trailer of Alex when we get on SFV. I know Capcom did that with Zangief during Beta test. I guess the team decided to ditch that?

The only person I've read online actually praising SFV surivial mode.
If you're a masochist, sure.

Trailer released at the same day as the content is fine. It would be cooler if the kept the character debut date as a secret, only revealing on the trailer. Apple announcement style.
I didn't like his theme. It lacks sax and piano.

One could say it lacks sax appeal

Credits? What credits? The DLC for the first year won't even be complete in June - first set of characters is set to launch through September. Most users have acquired enough FM through the currently implemented SP content to purchase all the additional cast members for free, mind you.
See you next year, then.
But then you'll probably have to wait because (hopefully) season 2 will start rolling out around that time.

For a package that's actually worth it's money. Isn't on june the day the Story mode will come out? (and hopefully an arcade mode)
Sorry but I can't say "Fight Money" with a straight face...
So.. you think Super Street Figher 5 won't be released till september? man...
Nah... I'm waiting for an edition that's worth it's money and preferably skip me a year's worth of grind. If Super Street Fighter 5 edition doesn't do that to allow leavers and skeptics to jump in, then they're doing something wrong.

Lame ken alt costume and then a trailer of ken getting beat up... oh ok. /salt

I think it's because they shared the same stages in the SF3 series.
lol the Ken army getting fired up because the true blond protagonist finally arrived huh... Alex is technically the future of the franchise (or the past future of the franchise to come, I dunno), so Ken can stay in that back seat he's been in since SF4.
I think Ken is really good in SFV.
Good idea but unlock 10 means that people without ps plus are doomed. Also capcom want us to play survival repeatedly!

Ha this game is already damn near half blondes but thats another thread for another time

Yeah, I'm fine with any method, at long new fans wouldn't find it overwhelming to just unlock colors for their favorite characters.
I didn't think about that so I will try to think of other method to unlock the colors. Edited: 5 or 10 wins on versus or online mode would works right?
