We need some Gold Shadaloo soldiers again, they’re kinda overdoing it with the costumes at the moment.

1 with a payout of 6K FM (1,500 FM to fight 3 times, 7,500 FM reward)

Capcom can do no wrong.

Except rek Abigail.

I appreciate the deeper cuts on some of the costumes. Forgotten Worlds is a good one, and I appreciated the Star Gladiator one enough to get it even though I don’t play Chun and June’s design is kind of uggo.

More Gold Soldiers is nice but fuck Capcom’s AI.

That’s nice that we finally get some more golden soldiers.

AND don’t forget guys, don’t try to be smart against them. Abuse stupid stuff, spam shit etc.

What worked quite well for me was picking Rashid and doing jump back -> eagle spike all day.

So much MURRICA

This is the suit that allows his flash kick to knock you into the next round.

If your Blanka is low level, use him against the XP one.
On the last XP Golden soldier, I got 25K FM from fighting him twice with my low level Blanka and once with my low level Sakura.
Abuse stupid stuff and you will win.

Aw, man! I want the Guile costume, but I’m going to be on a plane to London the day before the last challenge launches. I wonder if it’ll ever pop back up as an option to get down the road.

(I know, I know. First world problems and all.)

Well, you have a whole week to do it, so if you have access to a laptop, it should be doable to install SFV, enter with your CFN data and do it even while out of country.
Or at a friend’s PS4 with SFV.

They haven’t said anything official but I refuse to believe that Capcom isn’t going to sell these down the line. It would be crazy for them to have sunk resources into developing these costumes only to make them available once.

What we’ll probably see is them show up in a year end bundle or something. It’ll still be a pain in the ass but I don’t think any of these limited time costumes are gonna be gone forever once they are gone. Especially when Capcom can make real $ off them instead of FM. :japanese_goblin:

FM is the set up to make real money because you’ll have less FM for the characters and stages. Reel you in so many ways. Capcom Pro Bass Fishing.

No dice. I won’t be bringing my laptop (it’s Mac, anyway), and my only English friend will be out of town while I’m over there.

On the plus side, I’ll probably spend a little quality time on my Vita playing some Alpha 3 Max on planes and trains, so I’ll still get a little SF in. :smiley:

I think I liked fighting game reality shows better when they were about SFxT.

I’m going to have to watch that just for how hilarious it is. LTG, Sherry and Gllty is full entertainment pandering.

JB and Commander Jesse I can respect being there. Just about everything else is for loling.
