thats what ive been saying
just turn the stories into "arcade mode"
best of 3 rounds for each fight. dont start me with full meter
let em choose difficulty
and pad the mode out with another matches in between so its 8 fights, instead of 4
If Survival added continues it'd help a ton w/ easing the single-player and color issues.
Story being a joke difficulty-wise seems intentional.
No.
Others have said easier.
Others have said the same as always.
Nothing has changed.
Anything is anecdotal.

Optimal Alex blockstring:
- sMP, cLP xx LP Slash
the LP beats out 3f normals, and if they use a 3f jab to beat the slash they trade and you get a sweep after.
This is very, very good.
And if you cancel into slash on block they can stuff it pretty easily.
600,000 FM to unlock the 15 story mode costumes. I haven't looked at the total for the additional colors in the shop. Not to mention how much colors would be for the story mode costumes (do they do this?)
Dude.
Hmmm, it's over a million FM for story mode costumes, colors and story mode colors.

They want all the FM you have earned since day 1.

Well that's insane.
Only buy the ones you want for the characters you actually use, save FM for characters, buy the "Game of the Year" Edition they'll eventually package up with all the DLC. Yup, that's what I'll be doing.

Right on, I'm so new.......how exactly would I go about using this?

Actually, you can just do sHK xx V-trigger after a slash trade lol
Actually it's a counterhit and you can combo after the slash into a jab xx slash xx super for 412 damage.
So yes, it's good.

You charge it when you have a spare moment at range, then you keep it in mind as you approach. If you hit your opponent before they hit you first, they're going to take extra dmg/stun, and you're going to be able to do an extended counter-hit combo, regardless of whether or not the hit would have been a counter hit normally. CHs give you extra frames (time) to link moves, allowing combos to work that don't normally work.
Yep, but I just buy what I want and since the majority of the story costumes are bad I save money. You can't buy story mode costume colors
Yet
Ah okay. I figured they would appear in the shop once you bought the costume. My mistake.

Alex is fantastic. Love playing as him. New main for sure.
Not surprised at the store being a bit shitty.
Love the 'Next Generation' title.
Oh survival, how I've not missed you.
Alex's character story is interesting, but it doesn't really answer any questions at all. It just makes things even more confusing.

Can't get the sweep midscreen at max range. Can get st.hk aftwerwards tho. Edit: ah, you already found that nvm.
Good to know thanks.

Sure thing.
sMP, cLP xx LP Slash and sLP, cLP xx LP Slash seem to be his two major blockstrings and where a lot of his command grab pressure is going to come from.
Given SF3's story, he's probably not getting much of substance in SFV's story.
They wanted Survival to fill the role Arcade mode normally would, but they made it too harsh/punishing.

Alex is sounding good. May have to alt him.
Also anyone know if the 1 million FM trophy is unlocked even if you spend some?

Yes, if you want new colours you have to do it with every new costume you get.

Oh mai god Alex's Focus Attack Larriatto is ridiculous

Yea this is a terrible design choice. One bad enough that it should be patched IMO. They should give you FM each outfit if that's the case.

Are these actually blockstrings or frame-traps? If you opponent can get out any button it's not a block string, and invincible reversals will punish you hard.

Turns his next move into a counterhit.
Gives him counterhit on his next move. Lets you combo HP into HP slash, for example.
Turns your next hit into a counter hit.
