This is an infuriating experience. Battles in a row (not counting the garbage generic characters) that I'm super unfamiliar with and I find to be pretty slow vs fast characters.
Dhalsim vs Bison
FANG vs Rashid
Bison vs Chun
These are so unfun.
The AI constantly backdashing throws is pretty rage inducing too.

I feel your pain. That fight is definitely easier if you manage to interrupt the v-skill with st.mk I think. The key to that one is zoning him out for sure. The Bison vs. Necalli where you don't even start with full health later on is a real pain in the ass. (See above for my posts about it.)
That's not confirmed yet -- we're still waiting for the haunts FAQ clarification on the subject. All that we know for sure is that part of the CPT bundle pack on PSN goes to the CPT pot. It's not been confirmed what percentage (and certainly there are doubts about 100%) and as far as I know, nobody has answered the question I asked as to whether buying pieces of that content are treated the same in terms of revenue for the CPT pot.
Welcome to being a second class citizen.
As a PC user, not only do you have to buy any of the CPT content you want separately (which would run you $21.97 at the moment, since you can't pre-order the mystery costume), but you also have no way to get the EX2 colors or titles included in said bundle on PC legitimately.
Never try to throw the AI on "extra" or hard/extreme. 99% of the time they will tech and react faster than you can so you will most likely eat a punish.
The catch is finding something the AI for a character has trouble with and exploiting it. However, some matchups are much harder to do this with.

Never seen that before? happens a lot.
I just want that coat for Alex.
I still think that Oro, Viper will be among the season 2 characters. Probably Sodom as well seeing as he almost made it to the initial roster. Plus, I really wanna see him again.
Eh, I think they'll alter their balance philosophy a bit by the next year.
Nah, I've only played Vega enough to do Easy/Normal survival with him and I don't see him much. Threw me off.
so theres no fight money or costume/character redemption stuff at all?
when you hit them with a heavy attack and cancel into V-Trigger, make it count.
Also this:
Are other bronze level players spending FM on all the new characters? Like I can barely play guile... Feel like it'd be a waste of FM to buy Ibuki.
How much do you get for easy/normal survival?
I thought about just saving it up for stages, but I see most of them in online matches anyway.

Just buy the pass when it inevitably goes on sale and spend FM on stages/costumes.
Nah. I'll have enough fm for everything eventually.
If rather waste fm then actual money.

Been playing story mode Urien a lot lately. He's so good. Nash-esque giant pokes, far-reaching cancelable normals, aimable 2-hit meterless fireballs, meterless armored specials. Aegis traps.
Can't wait to play this guy for real. He's really fun. No crossup kinda sucks.

Hold on , which ones meterless armor move? Are you talking about after using V Skill?
And yea noway they would give him a cross up , Can you imagine blocking that with Aegis out. lol.

It dawned on me that if SF4 had SF5's business model I would have spent $60 on that game instead of the $130 I spent upgrading SF4 to USF4. To be fair, I would probably would have spent $72 total if the DLC costumes were handled and priced the same way as SF5 (I bought three for Dudley) but I'm still saving $58.

Yeah I bought vanilla on 360, vanilla on pc, super on 360, AE on pc and upgraded to ultra on pc.
That's 215 euros (I also bought some costumes but don't remember how much).
For SF5 if I didn't buy the season pass, I still would've gotten all the characters for free because I've earned like 700/800k FM so far, and even if I didn't I wouldn't be seperated from the userbase because of no paid balance updates.
I'm also in a bit more fortunate position because I've only spent ~38 on SF5 so far.

that's the good shit
...Is that supposed to be Blue Beetle?
Yeah, it's one of the reasons why I had dropped SF4.
Yep. Just announced for Injustice 2.
Oh, btw, he's meant to be a teenager in the game

I know I shouldn't be surprised with NRS' designs, but it looks as if Jaime been juicing a bit too much.

Just block and have them waste the meter, bison will always spend it all even if you block.
Once you hit Super/Ultra Silver shit gets real. I just got to Gold on my PC account, I feel like there's no where for me to go from here. The challenge is too real and I need to work out my clutch muscle.

Yeah, I didn't find that fight too bad... it's one of those "you have a projectile, spam it" fights.
I just finished story extra and got my 50k. Good luck in the rest of your journey through it and let me know if you need a hand.

Hahaha, and here I thought it was someone from KI.
NRS lost all good will with me after the way they handled MKX on PC. I didn't really like Injustice much, so Injustice 2 isn't even on my radar at this point.
You still can! Drop the $10 or, y'know, just buy the bundle to give another % of $25 to the CPT.

I'd rather wait for a potential sale. Wish they'd let us buy it with FM like every other stage in the shop.
He still isn't finished though so I think LI Joe was saying that at the moment he was just okay. I think it's hard to really know until the character is finished and been out for at least a month. People say characters suck all the time and then someone proves the opposite soon after.

but it's not like every other stage in the shop, since it's to support CPT (and maybe even some s2 stuff if we go by haunts' post).
Buyable with FM doesn't support anything.
LI Joe made a point of saying that his absolute favourite character in SF4 wasn't Sagat, Balrog, or anybody anyone guessed, but was in fact Rolento.
But he never used him bc his play did not suit his style. He then said that if Urien didn't fit right for him on release he would stick with Nash.
Yeah I think he just didn't like how Rolento played in SF IV. It's hard to drop a character you're very comfortable with. I feel super comfy with R. Mika at the moment but I really would like to switch to Juri because I think she's also a cool character. Though if I feel that I can't fully unleash my potential with her I'll just stick with Mika.

That's true, but in the same way, you have God's Beard doing the opposite of the L.I. Joe.
Me too. But I wouldn't hold my breath for either of those things.
First, it's a CPT stage, so since they're supposedly doing it to raise the money (at least partially or in some capacity) for the CPT pot, so FM wouldn't help them do that, especially since there's no way to exchange real money for FM.
Beyond that, given the way that Capcom has chosen to implement their DLC transaction system (for lack of a better term... meaning that there's no way to purchase the content through Steam or PSN directly [outside of the CPT bundle]), this means they have an absolute stranglehold on pricing and promotions and unless they've indicated intentions to do otherwise, I do not see them ever offering in-game shop discounts on anything, let alone paid content. They could have a bundle for the original 16 premium battle costumes already, but they're not even doing that -- it's just "give us $4/$6" per costume and we're happy with the sales.

Yea Rolento just didnt seem right in SFIV , he is supposed to be highly mobile character with long pokes like Nash. But even though they tried doing this to him in SFIV he still doesnt feel as fluid as how Nash does in SFV.
I think if Rolento comes to SFV he would feel closer to his Alpha incarnate.

I said no one is going to read his, as in, him as an individual, and improve the game, as in, make changes to the game based on his individual feedback. You you only took half of what I said.
Maybe if as the result of his discussion, it seemed like the collective opinion was in agreement with him or it developed into an insightful perspective on the game, but as he's just performing drive by posts on here in order to send messages to Capcom, it's unlikely that kind of level of discussion is liable to develop.

ibuki is kinda annoying as guile. if i don't lame it out she will stuff my shit close up and show me her teeth. feels like i'm constantly moving backwards.
that's a good point. too bad this stuff is so expensive. i checked the eu store and people gave the cpt pack 5 stars what will dissappear after the sales period. just the colors or the stage as well? or was it just the whole pack bonus?
