Is Ken really so good that they keep nerfing him? Some safety changes but that's a good bit of damage loss and I hope some of the Shoryuken juggles haven't been lost. There must be something Capcom knows about that nobody has found.

Then why aren't we getting a full game for full price? The lesson they learned is that you'll buy into whatever bullshit they say.
All that DLC politics bullshit is really irrelevant to me. The competitive side is what I mostly care about.

Because most AAA games need to sell DLC just to break even.

Besides, the LoL-like model should actually be better for the competitive scene in the long run.

How Capcom explained it:

"Capcom has a long term strategy to support SFV with new content over time, and the in-game currency allows everyone to choose how they get it. To recap, there are two types:
Fight Money: Can only be obtained by playing the game. Can be used to earn new content for free.
Zenny: Can be purchased with real money, and used to access new content immediately.

So when it comes to post-launch gameplay content, everyone has two choices:
Accumulate Fight Money through gameplay, and use it to earn gameplay related content, such as new characters, for free.
Purchase Zenny with real money, in order to gain access to the content immediately.

100 Zenny essentially equals $1. However, Zenny will be sold in several denominations, giving everyone choice and even bonus amounts depending on how much is purchased! Some of the options are listed below:
100 Zenny = Purchase for $0.99 / €0.99 / £0.79
550 Zenny = Purchase for $4.99/€4.99/£3.99 (receive a 50 Zenny bonus)
1200 Zenny = Purchase for $9.99/€9.99/£7.99 (receive a 200 Zenny bonus)
4000 Zenny = Purchase for $29.99/ €29.99/£24.99 (receive a 1000 Zenny bonus)

Street Fighter V provides everyone with choices and options that never existed before, ensuring that the game has a healthy lifespan for years to come, with new content always on the horizon for fans to enjoy."

"That’s right! The six additional characters in the first year are: Alex, Guile, Ibuki, Balrog, Juri, and Urien!

As a reminder, all of these characters are earnable through gameplay for free, but for those of you who want to get them right as they release, the 2016 Season Pass goes on sale today in North America for pre-purchase so be sure to check it out. It will be available to European consumers at launch.

For $29.99 / €29.99 / £24.99, SFV players get all six additional characters, each with a premium costume, in addition to an exclusive PS4 theme. Each character would cost 600 Zenny individually, and each premium costume would cost 400 Zenny individually, making this a $60 value for half the price! As a final incentive, in North America, if you purchase the 2016 Season Pass before February 16 you will receive three PS4 avatars (Ryu, Chun-Li, and M. Bison) for free!

For our European consumers, we have a special deal with the Street Fighter V Deluxe Edition available to pre-order today. The Deluxe Edition contains the full game and the 2016 Season Pass and will be available to pre-order at a special 10% discounted price (until launch) of £71.99 / €89.99. After launch, it will be £79.99 / €99.99 so act now if you want to take advantage of the deal!"

I wonder how long it would take for someone to earn 100 zenny. Cause if its like a micro transaction i wouldn't be surprised if it took ages to earn in game money. Its nice though that capcom is giving people the option to get stuff this way instead of real money.

1 zenny a match you win online in ranked I'm sure, or 1 zenny every 1 hour of training mode, or another zenny for each time you complete the story/arcade mode.

cant recall exactly where i heard it from so dont quote me on this, but i remember i remember something about its going to based on accomplishments so it will easy at first as you get get the easiest challenges out of the way, but as you go on only the hardest challenges will be left so it will slow down dramatically.
