Are colors too much of a grind fest?

Btw

Easy = 10 = color #3

Normal = 30 = color #4, 5 and 6

Hard = 50 = color #7, 8, 9 and 10

Just crossup the cpu over and over, you’ll probably get your 50 wins that way seriously.

I will just use the standard colors. This is not an mmo. I would rather buy all the colors with real money

I’ll start playing Survival when the servers are stable…

I’m not okay with it, it makes getting colours for characters you don’t intend on ever investing time into a complete nightmare. I like how Bison plays for instance, but I’m not going to main him any time soon, and I personally love purple and want the purple option for Bison, now I have to invest like 20 minutes to unlock that costume. I THINK that it’s colour 6, but if it were colour 7 that’s 30 minutes invested into that character now where I could have been doing something productive instead of grinding for Survival locked content.

I personally think that they did it to force players into actually playing Survival to make the game look less barebones than it actually is, the only thing it accomplishes however is pissing the majority of people off. I hate fighting the CPU, it’s boring as hell.

Gotta get that fight money.

Coming soon this March.

Fuck, this game is really pissing me off. I had to put it down because I haven’t had a moment of enjoyment yet, just one grind to the next.

That’s still a massive time investment.

Ugh that grind is tedious.

Think they’ll change anything or just force a little £££/$$$ or Fight Money out of us come the store opening?

Bad enough we have to pay 40k Fight Money for the story mode alt costumes each lol

They want you to spend that zenny. Remember, there isn’t going to be an arcade/ultra turbo edition.

It takes so fucking long even if you do this and doesn’t guarantee a win, I crossup against a pixel health Cammy and she does autocorrect DP into Super… 40% health to 0% in a flash.

I get nothing but a big “fuck you” for the 30 mins spent wasting my life for a fucking palette swap.

And they separate the grind between alts as well? Another design decision where you question whether the idiot that thought this up should actually be fired…

Yes.

Seconded.

Sell old themes from SF games with good music for Zeny/FM then. B)

I think having to do it with different characters is all fine and dandy.

But to have to do it with each costume too, is a bit much. Especially if it’s that way when a ton of costumes really start rolling out.

Being able to also buy them with fight money might be nice, cause I’d rather not go through those modes with characters I don’t want to play.

May I ask how the Pro Tour handles this? Like, do they give you systems with all of the colours on them?

If they don’t this needs an immediate change, I always liked how players identify through certain colours and it ruins it if I’m stuck seeing colour 1/2 in every tournament.(Green Ken Momochi, Red Yun Kazunoko, Red Bonchan Sagat, Beige Ryu Daigo etc.)

It’s even worse when the game randomly decides to drop to 15 fps and then you lose.

Only seen this problem in survival… (on PS4)

While I understand they “want that zenny”, let’s be a little reasonable here. This may be a stretch in my analogy here, but the only other games I “grind” in are ones that require you to level up so that you can progress to a more difficult part of a game: RPGs, sandbox/open world games, etc. This is a fighting game…there needs to be some diversity, and while colors, costumes, even stages may be trivial to some; after a while, looking at the same 2 (maybe 3) colors over and over and over and over again will get really old, really fast. The only people that will probably “have” to unlock these things are tournament organizers, especially those for the CPT.

I’m really hoping when they open up the game to the other modes in March there will be some changes to allow us to buy colors, among other things. But right now, having to use all 16 characters a total of 48 times, 90 total fights each?..c’mon now! Then have to do it again for costumes, and then the 5 DLC characters? Just for colors?..just a bit much, especially with how collectively I’ve seen people say survival is boring/not fun at all.
