Soul Calibur: Lost Swords - Free-to-play title for PlayStation 3, singleplayer only

Soulcalibur won’t draw free-to-play Lost Swords until next year

the facebook post has been deleted, it seems.

How do you cash in on a single-player f2p game anyway? Who’s to say I won’t just cheat code or download the hats or whatever they’re selling?

This probably explains why there’s no pc release. Best way to stop those cheeky bastards from cutting in to your bottom line is to take away their rights.

Im guessing same way they always do with soul games costumes,costumes, music and oh yeah more costumes. Everyone likes to be a special snowflake so there ya go.

Microtransactions.

You’ll probably be able to buy clothing pieces, skills, weapons, and characters. With the ability to grind to unlock lots of these things.

Also SC has never been on PC so that’s more likely why there’s no PC release.

sucks. Her critical finish on SC4 was way cooler. I don’t know what Project Soul is doing anymore.

That feeling you get when you see classic characters in a game that looks/plays identical to SCV, but are not a part of the roster. :sad:

Astaroth, Pyrrha, and Nightmare have been revealed.

how comes nobodies mentioned that there is Online Team Multiplayer in this game :confused:

What the fuck
Relic was not useless
That shit was amazing in sc4

The movelists being expanded serves to make things more interesting

Yoshimitsu was amazing in soul calibur 4
You could play him multiple ways to win
Now in five its like why play yoshi when you can just play mitsurugi

Compare ivy in 5 to her other iterations
It’s not even close
They took away good characters with no reason or rhyme or made there roles useless

what? I thought there was no online?

I heard that namco is focussing on single player for F2P Soul Calibur because Soul Calibur fans value singleplayer more than any other fighting game community. Which to be fair is true, weapon lord was great, tower of lost souls, etc etc.

So by all means, please provide us with solid detail that this game is going to have online team battles.

Is this out in japan right now?

and any idea what this is? Like is it the cool mode from SC2 or is it just a single player story for every character or what?

Man this mode sounds horrible. Also why is this the only site talking about this mode?

sounds horrible? i think wasting an experimental game on standard one on one modes is fucking retarded, but thats the state of the gaming community now though so I understand :rofl:

Competing to deal the most damage sounds like it’s eight people, playing in single player, but there’s random teams and whichever team deals the most combined damage wins.

No, you’re right ki shima, this sounds super fun and not stupid and shitty.

You guys apparently have never heard of the Billion Club

please just dont complain at the company to DOWNGRADE their efforts and fill their games up with distractions to make us believe we’re playing something new and instead complain at these companies to put more effort into innovating

its just pissing me off now the amount of people who are encouraging companies to hold back on expanding their I.P’s. ok cool tekken, street fighter, virtua fighter stick to fine tuning your games.

but these games, soul calibur, dead or alive etc they are 3D games that are no longer competing in the arcades and are no way as deep as the other games. demand innovation, please FUCKING HELL how many fucking soul caliburs with small tweeks do you want, help them expand on the game thats what communities should be doing, not just learning ways to hack the game mechanics, if you really were a productive part of the community you’d encourage growth in the design of the game as a whole

people stopped playing soul calibur because the game promised expansion and looked like it was going in that direction but then it just stopped. this is why soul calibur 3 did badly nobody cares about glitches etc they wanted to build their character and explore with them. that character creation mode showed people that the game has limits and repetitions.

the ps4 and xbox one has the power now, look at this game

if project soul was able to make something even half expansive but with the depth in combat soul calibur games have then they would change action mmo’s forever. I want them to have this support from the fans to take it all to the next level, please community get off your high horse and encourage expansion of the series
