Dude wait till you face 43 birdie
To quote myself
"Well, i did it once again as Cammy on hard mode. I wanted the colors for her default + story costume.
Few tips for Cammy players that want to unlock all colors
- In the first 15 matches don’t be afraid to jump in and go for max damage combo
- Try and finish the round with a ex move, it gives more points ( that you can use to buy stuff at later levels )
- vs Ken just crouch and sweep him when he comes close, don’t dp because he sometimes blocks it and then he shoryus back
- once u pass lvl 15 , spam heavy DP. I mean it, spam that thing, they block it often but most of the time they do not punish. The chip damage adds up and they eventually get hit
- don’t jump on Dhalsim
- avoid using EX dp if it does not kill,for some reason they punish this more often if they block it
- vs Ryu, Nash and Dhalsim you can usually start round with heavy DP. Ryu and Nash start with a fireball or by walking into you, Dhalsim starts round by either jumping or cr hk, your heavy DP catches both.
- rush down old man Bison, he rarely anti airs and you don’t really don’t want this bastard to start his combos on you.
- Try and go into lvl 35+ rounds with at least 70% health and always have a defensive supplement active
- once again, 70% of the time if not more, you need to spam heavy dp
TLDR : Heavy dp is your friend."
Good luck.
Tbh i will just wait they put survival colors on the shop
Will buy
Story Ryu #9
R.Mika #10
Claw #9
Then i will have anything good that shitty mode can offer above normal
Level 46 Birdie is absolutely the fucking worst next to Dhalsim. He ONLY uses safe moves and he just sits there waiting for you to mess up. It makes you want to slap whoever wrote the AI and decided Survival Mode was a good idea.
I just want alternate ways to unlock you shouldnt have to pay for those
Not only is it monotonous and boring, but it takes too damn long.
Capcom need to either rebuild Survial from the ground up or just fucking scrap it. Never in my entire life have I done something more infuriating and broken for such a little reward.
What’s most infuriating is the fact that you waste so much time beating 25 piss-easy rounds, only for Capcom to throw 5 rounds of the most broken AI I have ever seen in a fighting game at you.
It’s not even salt, it’s just frustration at absolutely piss-poor programming.
I wonder who in Capcom thought it was such a great and fantastic idea to unlock colors in survival mode. Why make it so ridiculously frustrating and long just to unlock COLORS for your character? And requiring a certain level to use them? It baffles me. The game should at least reward your progress with some exp. if you were to lose.
Tbh the concept itself is’nt even that bad, color become kinda an actual reward
BUT
-first 10 colors should be avaible without that, make it for 11-20
-survival must not suck that much (too long, too random, sometime unfair, server kick you out)
-you should not be forced to do it for every fucking alt
So, I only have Birdie, Zangief, Necalli, Laura, Fang and Dhalsim’s hard survivals left to be done. Anyone guide me as to which one has a highly-expoitable trick for this rage-inducing mode?
I find characters with a good cross-up (Karin, Nash) to be able to beat hard survival more easily than others. I’m guessing Laura’s cross-up resembles the aforementioned characters’. Does she have a safe combo after a cross-up?
st mp xx lp elbow (-2) or st mp xx ex fireball (+3)
Or you can confirm st lk, st lk xx ex elbow for a knockdown
Thanks! Will try that.
Make colors unlock buy playing story mode the end B)
Anyone use that one round survival thing while online and get banned from it?
I’ve used it to unlock literally all the colors for all the characters in the game, and have yet to get banned. Just did it for Ibuki and Balrog today too.
Did you do it while offline or online or it does not really matter?
Online. SFV is not a VAC game, so worst case scenario Capcom will take SFV away from you and Valve won’t care to do shit. So let’s say Capcom somehow learned how to program properly on PC and find out you used it, you still won’t get a record on your Steam account. With all that considered, Capcom won’t do shit, they’re clearly incompetent when it comes to shit like that. After reaching level 47 on ONE character and getting frustrated as fuck months ago, I took the risk. And happy I did, I have all of them now.
Good to hear. I am going to use the mod on pc now been waiting a long time to get colors. Thanks!
All they need to do is add continues.
FFS, just add the damn colors to the store so we can forget this cursed survival ever existed.
