Didn't the USFIV people fuck that up tho initially?
I guess this throws a wrench in the "all characters are already done!" theory though.

I guess this throws a wrench in the "all characters are already done!" theory though.
They fixed it pretty quick, though. Like a month or something. It couldn't be used for EVO, though. It makes you wonder why it was done when USF4 on PS4 was just kinda tossed out so fast, though.
Does it? Ibuki looks done and Balrog was apparently "almost done." I still think it's the Zenny shop.
And even if it wasn't, Capcom seems like the kind of company that would push out it's money shop as soon as possible even if their actual content couldn't meet deadline. Didn't SFxT have a Day 1 gem and color shop?
If this is true then Capcom USA deserves the blame. But why is there such a weird disconnect between the two in the first place? Apparently they got a lot more to fix than just the game.
So going forward, that roadmap is pretty much invalid right now and I wonder how long it will take them to communicate this to the players or if they just won't address this at all.
Financial, basically. If Capcom USA didn't have the roadmap, how many people would have bought the Season Pass? And considering from the looks of things, a number of people who bought said Season Pass want a refund.
I don't think the schedule was there for the season pass, it was more something to help reassure potential buyers scared by the little content there would be at launch that the game would get some regular and quick updates.
Capcom Japan will need to understand that this is what the "game as a service" model entices, and that such schedules are a necessity for a community to grow around your game, rather than leaving them in the dark for weeks or months on end and release every information at once.

And once again lack of communication is just another negativity for them, if they told players characters wouldn't be released until finish players would understand, but i think they wanted to sell season passes so they just went with the character every month, and now they can't get them ready in time..

I wish I get the chance to come to the US so I could body play against you guys.
Only you would think that's a fair question, lol.
They said we wouldn't have to pay for future, gameplay related updates. Ono has said this. I don't think anybody has ever said that there won't be a "Super" version of SF5. People interpreted their update plan as meaning the name of the game would forever be SF5. Which, imo, has always been silly.
This make sense to me. Remember just a few weeks out from launch the rumor was that we would get a character every other month? That always seemed far more feasible to me.
Probably because fixing existing content is different than creating original content. The situations aren't even remotely similar.

KingBroly was right
Capcom is truly a mess
Capcom is truly a mess
It's a fair question because we know one thing was done at odds between branches. So it's fair to ask what other things, if any, were also done at odds with one another?
Fixing SF5's netcode and matchmaking shouldn't be rocket science, but here we are, 4 months later, still busted, and isn't being addressed. The 8f input lag is, but not the rollback netcode or slow matchmaking (the latter of which is most likely not going to be fixed because they told the casual audience they don't want/need their business).

at this point does it really blow your mind b
It blows my mind that Capcom can't even get their shit together between themselves and that its resorted to Capcom Japan throwing shade at Capcom USA
Well...nobody questioned it was done without all sides agreeing to it.
It's amazing how much of a mess they are lol. If they had just communicated better this wouldn't be a problem. All this lack of communication is starting to make more sense if the USA and Japan arms of the company are at odds with each other.

lol this is some Sega of Japan vs Sega of America shit. With SFV as the Sega Saturn they launched way too early and miscommunited how to fix the situation when the sales werent there and the product was busted.

You dun goof son if you think you've been ripped off or is dissapointed.
Don't buy season passes till the content or enough of it is there*
*Applies to all season passes.
You will still get those characters and costumes as they come out without spending FM?

If the premium costumes for the DLC characters were of high quality then I'd still not regret my season pass as I'll have enough FM for the next wave of characters.
But Jesus Christ, Alex's is a fucking travesty and Guile's is ok-ish. Not exactly something I'd pay money for otherwise.
Sure as hell not spending any money for anything on this game until there's people who have already tried it and can give reviews.

I don't get the question: I'm still getting to keep those characters once the cash shop finally releases, so I can still spend my FM on costumes and colors and whatnots, instead of characters, which is why I bought the season pass in the first place.
Nothing has changed.
Even made a surprise 70k economy on that awesome guile stage, so...
There are better fights to fight than this one.

...How? Once the zenny store is up, you're going to have to pay for the characters anyway.
You guys are overreacting. Ibuki being delayed and Capcom Japan not acknowledging the road map doesn't indicate we're going to be waiting months for promised content.

Yah I'm surprised how big of a deal people are making about this one month delay.
CoJ is run by businessmen who only care about profit.
They give 0 shits about netcode, balance, quality of life stuff, etc. They don't even care about SF to begin with. If it was there call, SFV would've dropped and everything else would be in Super SFV 2 but that would've been canceled or incomplete due to poor SFV sales. There would be no Pro Tour, beta period and netcode would've been really bad delay based like Capcom Japan usually employs.
I've never cared about alt costumes and colors, but Alex's premium costume is pretty terrible. I don't understand why both his story mode and premium costumes have him with no shoes on, especially considering his fight intro starts off with a closeup of his feet. It looks really dumb.
It's the culmination of every problem the game has had up until now.
The delay is definitely annoying, but if it means characters going forward come out complete *cough*Alex*cough* and other areas of the game are being improved upon, there should be no complaints.
What do you want them to do? They've come out and explained what happened and signed off saying they will provide more consistent updates. Story mode, Ibuki and the zenny store could all launch in June with no hiccups and you would still find something to nitpick.

Honestly I don't feel salty about getting the Season Pass, I would be pissed if they eventually gave away the characters for free, but at some point they're going to go back behind the paywall, and that's where the SP will be worth it. I know I'm never going to git gud enough to earn the Fight Money needed.
Well, it's not like this is a game where another character has a win pose where he removes his hat before putting it back on, and a costume where he doesn't wear a hat at all... ^^

It's up to the EVO administration whether Ibuki is allowed or not. I really hope she isn't. It's horrible from a competitor's POV.
