Why do you guys care about alt costumes so much? Yeah, the DLC structure sucks, but alt costumes are so superfluous. It's easily ignored.
Maybe Capcom will do like they did with Lost Planet DLC and just make them free after a while, too.
And put them in the Platinum Hits release of SFIV Turbo.

Because some people like them but don't want to pay for them. Isn't it obvious?
Seriously it was an inner city theater and the crowd went crazy with any and every little thing going on...it was so much fun that the movie was very enjoyable. I know I can never replicate that in my personal viewing experience and hence will never see van damme as guile ever again.bad-joey said:

Wow @ the DLC implementation. I suppose something had to give. Costume whores in tatters... :lol
Digging the plain logo pad. The others look really gaudy to me.
Markman's TE stick pic makes me REALLY, REALLY WANT ONE (with the bat-top mod, too!). Damn these shallow pockets! I swear I'm as excited about these stupid peripherals as the game itself, and probably won't even buy any of them. :lol
I also wish the hardcover strategy guides were a reality.

Definitely not buying costumes.
That black and white pad looks pretty nice. I'm really hoping these sell and Madcatz will follow them up with some non-branded versions.
...Actually, would that even be possible? If Capcom was involved in creating these (they had input right?), will Madcatz have complete control over them in the future, or would Capcom require royalties or something?

I asked this earlier but did not get a response.
What exactly was DIMPS' role in development of SFIV?
They seem to be downplayed in the OP.

I think it's like 4 costumes for $5-6. Or single costumes for $1.99. So, yeah.
Someone asked why they're staggering the costumes. Many reasons I guess. Gives players something to look forward to each week for six weeks after the game's release and it also pads their storefront. People are much more willing to pay a little bit each week than a big lump sum right off the bat as soon as the game launches as well. In the end, they're paying more, but for most people, there's two payday cycles within the DLC cycle so they don't even notice it.
It's a smart move really. It doesn't make Capcom any friends on this board, but it's smart. More hardcore SF4 players will buy these than we'd all like to think.
Moving on, the Championship Mode patch details sounded weird. Is there a better explanation of this mode somewhere?
i neeed this gameeeeee... but i do not need alts. will be selling my code when i get it (for 320 mspoints). if anyone is planning on buying a code, just hit me up and we'll trade.
i am hyped the comments markman overheard regarding online play. why is that not what everyone is talking about!? SO HYPE.
also, just got in my ls-32-01 and battop last night. tension felt good, but obviously i need to wield it in a stick to get a real feel for it. standard fightstick users may want to hit me up for my JLF, as i am swapping that out ASAP...

I'll pay for your damn costumes. I'll even pay more than I think is fair. THIS IS AMERICA. But really, don't release the packs one at a time. That is just annoying.
Also, quick question: How much can you actually put into a macro on a stick with 2 extra buttons? Can you macro a whole super/ultra? How exactly does it work?

further confrimation: on Best Buy's site is say "Available Online Only"

Grapplers Pack - Zangief, E Honda, Rufus, Abel, El Fuerte (Feb 12)
Beauty Pack - Chun Li, C.Viper, Sakura, Rose, Cammy (Feb 19)
these 2 packs for me I guess, since they keep the ALL-IN-ONE pack for April 30th??? that is like 6 weeks AFTER the last pack of 5
agree with many others on this thread, charge for alt = sux.
they're welcome to charge on many other things like stages/BMG...
alt must be on disc already, you'll know when you get those DLC as a 1kb file.

Unfortunately so will I, but it will be lame having some people with multi outfits and some without...anyhow screw it...Capcom sucks for this, but their awesome for everything else so I guess I'll give them a pass just after I saybad-joey said:

Damage control: yeah, paying for alt costumes that were in the arcade version sucks but they did add a lot of characters and backgrounds the arcade version didn't have. Buying in packs sucks, yeah but at least they're only charging a dollar. Plus having a single download for every character would probably be a big headache and you'd see certain characters getting way more dls than others. This evens things out a lot more and makes the whole thing easier to manage. I'll probably end up getting them all, though the only one I want in the shoto pack is Dan. What I really want is background and music dlc...
