I'm new to Street Fighter and fighting games in general (this is my first real attempt) so I'll just say my first impressions of this are very positive
I just played a bit of survival and training and the game feels incredibly smooth and easy to pick up. I checked the command list for Ryu (the character I decided to start with) and went through it, able to pull off each move with relative ease (which has certainly not been the case with other fighting games I've tried)
The game looks fucking gorgeous to boot, playing on PC at max settings and downsampled with a pretty solid 60 fps (dips during cutscenes). The art style is really appealing, which is nice because I never cared much for 4's
I haven't encountered any error messages yet but I haven't tried online play

So I redeemed the Hot Ryu outfit, but I forgot to download and now can't find it anywhere. Help?

Yeah Vega is definitely my favorite. I really struggle to do his Flying Barcelona with my DS4 though. Just have to mash back down-side and kick and hope it goes off lol

Ryu's color unlocks: Can't find a decent source online.
Anyone fill me in?

PS4? It should download automatically. Close Street Fighter 5 and reopen it, it should be there. Won't work if the game is open.
Nobody can

You should be able to put the code in again if you don't see it in the character select screen.

I remember I was really close to getting a "platinum" in vanilla SF4 back in the day, all I was missing was the "beat arcade taking less than 10s per fight" or whatever one. Never did it.
I think the Hell Survivor trophy is going to be like that.

Matchmaking is down. Be careful playing SP too a few of us got kicked pretty far in Survival mode for the servers to just drop.
It's not a bad game, but its a game with a gigantic cliff of a learning curve if players wanted to go from beginner->intermediate level play. So there's a lot of critical feedback on the parts that cause that issue.

Beat survival to unlock colors.
Don't pick hell and go as far as you can, you need to do each difficulty separately.
Edit: Here are his colors.

Cleared stage 30 normal Survival Bison with Laura on first try. He got about 50% of my health in one combo right at the start, but I came back just by mixing him up and keeping the pressure on. I'll probably be able to get 50 done, but 100 seems daunting.

Haha sorry. I meant so ask what colors do you unlock? I've only got 1-3 and keep getting fucked by Bison.

Since their is nobody to play, at least I've been learning some things in training mode. I now know how to deal with some moves like Karin's full screen jumping attack. Another thing I realized is that auto correct DP's are actually kind of easy. It's just that you have to do them kind of early in SFV(basically when they're over the top of your head) where as SF4 you had to wait till the last second or your DP would always whiff as your opponent is crossing you up.

What the hell was the point of the beta if the launch is all screwed up? Capcom sucks.

->
1 and 2 are unlocked by default, 3 by survival on easy, 4 - 6 survival on normal, 7 - 10 survival on hard
I still can't believe colour unlocks are costume specific, though. they were on some crack with that one
I think the main problem is that Street Fighter IV has gameplay systems that force you to play in a very specific style. A style we have been forced to play in for a very long time (if we want to be a part of the modern Street Fighter scene, that is). This has caused some serious fatigue for many players. That fatigue is probably making many of us a little overly critical at the moment.
I imagine that the game will be appreciated appropriately again in a year or so. Absence makes the heart grow fonder, and all of that.
That being said, I do genuinely hate option selects. If they can keep them mostly out of SFV then I will be a very happy man.

I think they are teasing Helen as being a playable character.
I could write a massive rant on how horrible it is by SF standards, but suffice it to say I think the core gameplay is horrendous. That's off topic though.
Are there any colors for Gief out yet?
Nope, consider online fucked until further notice.

Have a question.
So i played this today, did Story mode. I was not logged on the servers as they were down, so i went ahead and did story mode, i cleared story with 3/4 of the characters, took a break and came back later, now when i relaunched the game it got me in the servers. So i'm ok... well lets continue. So i chose next person in line for story mode clear it and it now SAID, you have gained money, and some other stuff that i did not see normaly when i was playing offline. I was now getting cash and other stuff when completing the story fights with the little rest of characters i had left to clear.
Now my question so i cleared 3/4 of story mode offline, did i just lose tons of money from those that i did offline? or is the game intelligent enough to credit me the things i should have gotten if i would have been online? or do i have to redo them?

We will bring down the servers at 7pm PST, to apply a fix to our servers. We hope to be back and function by 10pm PST at the latest.

I like his username.
Cheers guys. I also think that costume specific color unlocks are bollocks. Do you earn more FM going though again? I assume not.

Okay good. Probably better just to bring the whole thing down to work on it instead of getting intermittent fixes where it continues to go in and out. Hopefully this sorts out the issues
Shit I got 50 minutes to try and beat this survival run. Then I am done for the night.
Different difficulties, and different costumes will get you FM. Normal on default gets you FM and then if you redo normal with preorder costume you get more FM. Doing normal over and over on the same person/costume will not get you more FM.
When is 7pm PST?
