Which Costume Pack?

Vawned said on January 4, 2012 at 11:06 a.m.

@4 They probably never will.

GokaiGreen said on January 4, 2012 at 11:16 a.m.

Oh...THAT costume pack...nm

#7 LMAO exactly what i said

hotpinkfighter said on January 4, 2012 at 11:19 a.m.

for those of us who bought these things as soon as they are released, we are mad. there's no incentive to buy on release day. we should all wait until it gets super cheap. i got SF4 PC when it was $39.99 and now it's less than $10. go figure!

chilldoman said on January 4, 2012 at 11:25 a.m.

@4 they never will for too many reasons. new moves for existing characters, new cutscenes, different trophies... i'm not even going to list them all. they didn't just throw in a bunch of extra characters and stages. still, i agree this is totally what they should've done. i really can't be bothered right now to complete the game with everyone again. was never able to get hyped for this game like vanilla.

@9 Correction, YOU are mad. I'm still happy I got my Shuma on release day.

#9 welcome to the world of commerce. You always pay a cheaper price down the road. It's how businesses work. It's usually a sign of a last ditch effort to get more sales off a product that started to decline in sales before a new product launches.

Why does everyone feel like a company "owes" them something. Why should there be an incentive for buying DLC when it releases? What kind of incentive do you expect to get? something free?

You do realize businesses spend money to produce a product then sell it to make a profit right? Mind blowing!

Might as well buy Jill and Shuma now...

#13

LordJim said on January 4, 2012 at 11:33 a.m.

@#9
The fact that you enjoyed these since day one does not count?
Enjoy waiting forever till it costs 1 cent with that reasoning

#14 Agreed enjoying a great game is priceless. Regardless of what people say I have enjoyed the heck out of the new capcom fighting games. The times and memories that I have with friends when we play these games are priceless.

I really like the idea about having a discount on digital products. It costs nothing for the game company for as long as it last it's pure profit for them, since these guys who buys the product only on sale date will never buy without the discount.

StriderHiryu said on January 4, 2012 at 12:30 p.m.

When are we getting our last two DLC characters?

#17

MarvinVelasco12 said on January 4, 2012 at 12:31 p.m.

i just got the dlc characters like 2 weeks ago, oh well it's just a few bucks i guess.

#18

MINI said on January 4, 2012 at 12:35 p.m.

I just wait for the full pack of characters to come out..
I get every costume for half the price of them all seperate.. patience pays off.. literally

#19

Freyzii said on January 4, 2012 at 12:37 p.m.

#18 Same here, bought Jill and Shuma a little over a week ago and a costume pack two days ago. Hmm, might as well buy the rest.

#20

I didn't buy HD Remix right away when it was 14.99. I caught the discount Capcom put out and bought it for $4.99. I know many people out there don't play it, but it was something I wanted and something I wanted to learn. Sort of like a challenge for myself.

#21

okay said on January 4, 2012 at 1:12 p.m.

I'd buy Shuma and Jill right now if Capcom didn't make them crap tier and then still nerf them in Ultimate.

#22

BrokenPad said on January 4, 2012 at 1:20 p.m.

I don't know why you xbox guys are crying. Anybody remember every ssf4 costume for, what was it, somewhere around 9.99-15.99$? Was only on xbox. On a side note, is anybody else really nervous about this stupid ad on eventhubs? Has something to do with psychics? makes a giant bubble on the screen with no way to click it off...

#23

Nago said on January 4, 2012 at 1:31 p.m.

Too bad these weren't up sooner. I'd get the costumes if I wasn't poor thanks to the Steam sales.

#24

sfscrub said on January 4, 2012 at 1:41 p.m.

I'd get the dlc characters, if they weren't horrible. How about some good characters, mega man anyone.....

#25

ChunLi said on January 4, 2012 at 1:45 p.m.

The preview picture HAD to be Shuma...that Alt still gives me the creeps.

#26

wikisaiyan said on January 4, 2012 at 1:59 p.m.

so the alts r just for Shuma and Jill right
Guess I'll get'em now

#27

mdg164 said on January 4, 2012 at 2:07 p.m.

Shadow mode?

Have they finally put out a cheap bundle pack? I'd buy it and go back, they were the only titles I needed. I certainly won't get all the UMvC3 titles, not doing Jill #10 again!

#28

GokaiGreen said on January 4, 2012 at 2:09 p.m.

They should sell GOOD Practical Combo Trials

Firefox + adblock = win.

They should have sold the option to change back the lifebar to Vanilla MVC3.

#31

shades_of_grey said on January 4, 2012 at 3:53 p.m.

I wonder why they only did it for one console. Seems strange to have post launch console exclusive sales. Not mad or anything, I play the game on ps3, but it just doesn't make sense to me to limit the sale.

#32

werewolfgold said on January 4, 2012 at 4:17 p.m.

Just to be clear. If you buy/had bought the original MvC3 costume pack, would that make the collection pack they release later invalid? Does the ultimate costume collection pack even have the MvC3 costumes in it?

#33

Hakansoilbarrel said on January 4, 2012 at 4:22 p.m.

(Waiting for the complete costume pack, gogo discounts tho)

Jill and Shuma come Character DLC is bundled with their own alt costumes.
