Beating all the games SP content lets you unlock around 8-9 characters.
It takes around 25 hours to do so.
Right now that's how many DLC characters thee are curently.

If you played for the past 2 years you also have enough to buy a bunch of stages consumes and the renaming upcoming characters.
>>
>>383284254
>>work 1 hour at mcdonalds to pay for that map or skin

You can unlock 9 characters in 25 hours.

Sp content gives a shit ton of FM.

I hate SFV as much as the next guy but that is true, you can earn every character with in game currency which actually isn't hard to get at all (I still have like 1 million spare), one of the only good things about this game to be honest.
>>

Most of those are shit though.

Though you did remind me that I could earn Laura's, Mika's, and Gief's, which is cool. I don't even play any of those characters though.
>>
>>383283469
I think there's a big case study you can analyze with Capcom and DmC. One of their more notable lies was saying they invited professional players to play the game and got positive feedback in order to quell the bad reception they had at the time. Now that I think about it, you can do a case study with Capcom in general since another one of their notable cases was blaming the fans for the cancellation of Mega Man Legends 3.

Also on PC you can use infinity HP and Metter trainers in hardest Survival to literally earn back 70% of the in game currency you spent on the character.
As long as you do like one a day and dont use 1 hit kill Capcom cannot detect and ban you.

Still takes 30 minutes for hard and 1 hour for hell difficulty but i used this time to listen to some podcasts i was missing and to practice combos on the character i am grinding whit.

one hit kill works you just have to wait like 18 seconds.

this is what I've used so far

this does still work with the 02.030 version right? because it should since nothing significant has changed in system files since forever

survival mode beyond normal is absolute bullshit with some opponents cranking their AI level beyodnd 8 with input reading (that level 4x vega and level 99 chun for example as level 100 ryu is a total chump compared to the chun)

No shit. They always claimed that DLC character could be purchasable with in game money but that premium costumes were always going to cost real world money. Capcom never ever said the premuim costume could be gotten for free ever. So they never lied about that and to those that believe it then they are a bunch of dumb fags caught it misinformation due to them just reading headlines and thinking that that is all an article would have to offer in terms of info.


Not speaking for or against the practice but god damn are dumb people so fucking dumb i swear. They so dumb that they get tired of reading after a dozen or so words and the pretend like they know what the fuck they talking about.

I will never stop being mad. I had a friend who was very hyped for it. I was a bit skeptic, but I didn't want to ruin his fun.

Then it finally came out and he was so pissed off at how lousy it was. Even more so when he finally got to the center of the universe.

Sean Murray and that shit-eating grin of his can burn in a pile of flaming dicks..

>>383286593
Well, they did release MKXL out on PC so you have everything the console version has.
>>
>>383287635
Yeah like 2 years later.

I mean I'm not complaining since I got it on PC (after it was fixed) but I know it was a major piss off for people who got it day 1.
>>
>>383283469
The platform instead of yearly new discs is one of the things SFV did right, I've been playing it since launch and have been able to buy every single new character with fight money and have enough to buy the rest of season 2'a characters, getting hebrewed on cosmetics beats the ever loving shit out of having to buy a new disc for 4 new characters and a fucking balance update

I did like the shitstorm after somehow NMS got hyped into oblivion as some gamechanger even when people would realistically get bored of it a few hours in. I keep hoping that shit like this won't get hyped but I hope this burned enough people that obvious scams like it don't get funded.

Is there not?
I used a trainer and even though my account wasn't ban, my FM got reset.

Wait, you can get every DLC character with in game currency in SFV? Then why do people complain so much about the Season passes.

But this isn't a lie, technically SF DLC can be earned or bought. The most important one, characters, can all be bought, so what are you complaining about?

Costumes that are purchased only being spat out constantly.

Characters are insanely expensive to the point that you would probably only earn enough for 2 or 3 before getting bored of grinding.

Are you really this retarded? Honest question.
VAC games clearly state if they are VAC or not and even have a logo on the store page stating as much.

Ignoring that aspect you have access to the internet, a google search would confirm or denounce your fears.

Cheat or don't cheat, it doesn't matter because Super SF5 is coming and it will be a """free""" DLC for existing owners and calling it now, will have previous characters unlocked!

getting 500k is easy as shit though or are you just that fucking bad you can't beat any trials or normal survival?

and why do you feel entitled to have all the DLC characters immediately when you are not willing to pay for them? they take money, time and manhours to make and you just want to earn 100k in minutes even after depleting the easy free FM sources in the beginning? lol just lol what an entitled little millennial

so if they left it at 16 characters and no further updates or support it'd be complete? lmao

broken online? it works for me
lag is something every online game has and some merely deal with it better
1p only rematch? this is an incredibly petty and minor issue
>jewing the fanbase (see mvci)
what does mvci have anything to do with this? capcom tried to offer a model where you can buy a lot of the dlc for free but retards didn't like it and want to buy large full game price updates instead
>season pass is character pass with colors/stages/costumes not included
again you are wrong, retard, first pass does come with a stage, they always come with colors and the battle outfit for characters you fucking idiot mong

fuck off back to r/kappa since you don't even play fighting games
>>
We dont deserve a nice DLC model like this because of fucking retards like OP.
>>
>>383290302
But why tho?

You either pay to get them early (with FM or $$$) or you waited 2 years for SSFV and got them all then. It's not really much different than a pre-order bonus in that sense: if you bought early you paid more but got them immediately vs waiting, saving money, and then getting them late.
>>
>>383290791
That'd be a much better option but it'd mean SSFV would need a CFN option to recognize if a person owns something so they can get a FM "refund" which is something SFV lacks.
>>
>>383290602
I want to do this but I'm also a poorfag who had to cool it on the DLC purchases.

I do hope they release Elena for the game though. Makoto too. I need my Japanese schoolgirl quintet.

keep healer whore out of this game or remove healing

>>
>>383291470
healing was only an issue in SF4 because that game is shit and retarded and they decided to put that up as an ultra instead of a super.
>>
>>383286421

You people are retarded, they literally said all gameplay related DLC would be free. They even mentioned premium content prior to release.

capcom said they would only ever release one version of mvc3 and they did the same thing with sf4

I thought there was a load of stuff in SFV you could only buy via DLC? Isn't there a decent chunk of stuff you can't get via fight money?

It's all alternate costumes and even a chunk of those you can get with FM.

>>383290602

I don't even know how much I've spent on Mika alone after buying all her costumes

I'm the reason Mika & Chun get costumes every other month

>>383289826
Just playing the game is what gives you the least FM though.

Capcom pared back single player features to focus on the multiplayer, yet the multiplayer gives you jack shit, and it's only the grindy single player stuff that gives you any worthwhile amounts.

Pants on head.

No. Doing the weekly challenges that play out online too gives you quite a big chunk of consistent FM.
Leveling characters in ranked/casual mode is also extremely underrated.
Getting a character to 30 is easy, and that is 30k FM already.

Cleveland Mark Blakemore. How come no one mentionning this? Guy promises to release a game, takes money for it, never releases it claiming last minute bug fixing. He's been doing it these last two decades. Game was supposed to be released yesterday.
