It's crossplay, the populations are pretty much the same.

As someone who only played the single player in fighting games before, I'd highly recommend you give playing against other players a shot. Single player is fun and all but I personally see it as just a way to pass the time until you can actually play against other people. Fighting games are built around competition after all.
The stage variants were clearly planned for a lot of stages with day time kanzuki already in the game, night time city in chaos showed off in the story trailer. They probably weren't ready or something. They'll probably cost Fight Money though so they're not technically free.
It's nerves with me. It's not just fighters, either. I enjoy fighting games for what I can do with them, nothing more, nothing less. It's how I relax, but with SF5 I can't because Capcom decided it wasn't in my best interest. And I couldn't get a refund on Steam because I gifted some beta keys. So here I am, waiting.

I've never said anything like this, so you can fuck off with that. I've never insulted anybody for wanting single player content. Just a page ago I said I was looking forward to story mode.
Sucks for you that they haven't gotten the content you want out, and I've posted about that as well, but you're being as reductive as you're trying to accuse me of being. Just because this isn't the content you want doesn't mean you need to try and make it less than it is by being pissy it's not what you want.

Fair enough but realistically, you can't expect proper single player from this game until like the end of the year or probably around that time. It's just clearly not high in their list of priorities and never was to begin with.
If you really enjoy the single player components of fighting games, there are some good ones out there.
MKX is a great game for playing by yourself. (Though the PC version is evidently shit)
Guilty Gear Revelator just came out and while I haven't played it myself, there's a lot of praise for it.
King of Fighters XIV will be coming out in August and it seems like it'll have pretty robust modes.
You're just making your own life harder at this point by expecting single player content from this game right now tbh.
I went with PC because I thought it was a better pick. It has some advantages and disadvantages. The advantages led me to clearing Survival and Trials with everyone. The disadvantages have led me to miss out on MKX and whatever else devs skip over.
What pisses me off most about SF5 is that they hid the fact that it would launch WITHOUT Arcade Mode, WITHOUT Versus CPU. There's no reason to not expect them to be there. Unfortunately, because of what Capcom did, you have to question if it'll be there going forward not only with future Capcom fighters, but other future fighters as well because of how low Capcom tried to lower the bar.
I still have Smash Bros. though.

Yeah, it sounds like he should move on if he's this dissatisfied with the product. Makes no sense to constantly follow something that you obviously hate. There have been justified complaints for a while but he really does make it seem like he's looking for something to complain about almost all the time.
I can complain a lot of things about this game and Capcom, but there were reviews before the game launched that complained about the lack of content.
Capcom was quiet until after the game launched, but there was information before the launch too.
And I honestly doubt it this will affect other future fighting games. The lack of content bite them in the ass and they already said they will give their games more dev time based on what happened with SF V.
At the very least, they are showing signs of improvement.

At least Capcom have a sense of humor, with Sean complaining about the servers being down.

Zero sympathy for anyone who buys a product without knowing what it is first. You should be mad at yourself, not Capcom, and stop dumping repetitive negativity into this thread.
Listen, I know you are probably a fan of fighting games and Street Figher in general but you really need to stop acting like an obnoxious, ignorant and entitled individual. Capcom didn't hide anything intentionally as they thought what they were doing is what we wanted, but now that they know, they are trying to rectify these issues. If you want to wait for the said content then it's your call but continuing to be negative about literally everything is not very productive and healthy for debate and most of all for your mentality. Just chill, man.

Like, it's one thing to be on Capcom when they fuck up. But when they try to fix shit, either accept the fact that it's happening and rejoice, or say you've had enough and take your money elsewhere.
A few pages ago, you complained about them not having the Zenny shop up and the reasons why. They fucked it up. That's totally true, but to ignore them moving on and giving people a better option instead of harping about the past is probably more productive.
Edit: I just wanna point out how good the communication is right now. Ibuki's costume got revealed at an event, we got a blog post outlying what they want to fix, and a blog post outlying the upcoming DLC this month. On that very same token, we get to dick around with the rest of the DLC cast (and PC players will get that in training mode, I'm sure) inside a fairly decent story mode (excusing the one round system. Ugh).
If you really, really want Capcom to change their shit, get productive and constructive. Making snide commentary is just white noise to them and any developer.

I totally forgot about premium costumes costing real money no matter what.
That sucks.

Well, they need a way to earn money in the long term and adding Macho Man Randy Zangief is a good way.
EDIT: I just hope they add the option to buy the regular colors with FM. So freaking annoying having 4 colors locked just because I'm not a masochist.

Buying things individually seem like crazy bad value. Hopefully the packs they'll inevitably sell will have better value. Like the season pass.
RIP in pieces to the Zenny store.
I really wonder why they held on to that for so long, they could have been making microtransaction dollars since March if they just used the Sony/Steam storefronts.
I'm excited to see what extent the next 3 DLC characters are playable in story. I've wished I had the PC version for a while but man the idea that they could potentially be modded in to mess around with in training has me super jealous.
Capcom hid what the product was before it launched. They're not off the hook for hiding what an incomplete mess of product the game was and still is. They cannot and should not be defended or encouraged for doing it, either.

It will never be over until Cammy is buffed with all the things that covers for one's own deficiencies.
While they thankfully can be bought with FM. I would pay that much if push came to shove and they gave us these stages

She should have an air grab though
If Vega can't get his flip kick, no one gets what they want either
Nice, I'll finally have enough FM for all the characters

And btw, I really don't want to see that Bathhouse stage in SF5.
Because Capcom is going to add

Yeesh.
And while we're on the subject of stages, I am just in love with the night time version of Forgotten Waterfall. BY FAR, the best looking stage in SF5 so far. Even Hillside Plaza ain't got shit on this.
If the alternate stages also have different music then ohh boy.
Yeesh.

Yeah, this stage looks amazing to me. I'm a sucker for nighttime stages, but the way the sky looks here is just awesome.

hmmm...not Guile, or Alex really, or FANG or Vega.

Actually, FANG rushdown is legit in certain matchups, namely Dhalsim.
Alex's offense is amazing but I wouldn't call it "rushdown" so I agree.
Also agree with Guile and Vega.

Daytime Kazunki Estate does so they probably do.

nice!! That puts me at about 750K
Still need another 250K from somewhere...Maybe level up some other characters in Casual mode and Targets.

Yeah, he definitely has some frame trap pressure. FANG can jack you up in the corner.
Also that stage looks good. Day time Karin stage, Nigh-time Mountain stage will be my new favorites. Give us a couple more stages with no NPC please Capcom, they look so good.

Capcom, when you've proven that you can make great stages, why not make more great stages?
Haunts, please tell the guys and gals in Japan to remove the NPCs in all the stages. It might even help the performance so we can just call it "optimization".

Yes, of course. That's why it's important to do the story and trials and at least easy survival now before they are gone.

Are Season Pass owners getting these new stages for free?
Nope, just Guile's Air Force Base.
