My Survival grind is officially done and so am I, lol.

I've beaten Normal with everyone but Fang and just moments ago beat Hard with Bison. Almost lost it at final stage, from almost full life with 20% def bonus to like 5% life. This is official advice, Survival is bad for mental health.

With 460k FM, I should be now set for season 1 DLC characters. It's become clear that unless people are willing to complete Survival Hard and Hell with every character then Season 2 DLC characters are out of reach. That's if Season 2 characters are still 100k FM (possibly more expensive) which is not guaranteed at all. I don't think Daily Challenges will change the situation, at best I could see them giving 1k a day (I believe it's less) and for most people it would not be enough. And when you take into account all the other stuff that can be bought with FM(story costumes for example), it's obvious you can't "unlock" everything for free by playing, not even close. I knew this was the case the moment Capcom announced this FM-model and it's ridiculous to see all these people still shouting FREE FREE, but it's FREE....bullshit. This Fight Money case should be a clear example about the difference about people who actually THOUGHT about it and people who fell (and will fall in the future) into marketing-traps.

Oh, I thought the characters were 200k but looked it up and it says 100k each. That's pretty good I think.
Each time you level up a character, you get 1000k as well. So if you get every character to lvl 30, that's 480k just from that.
And obviously this model will have different effects depending on how much you play, since you get fight money for playing online matches, and daily challenges as well. I played SF4 regularly since 2010. So I imagine I'd be able to unlock all the characters and such if I play this game to a similar extent.

However, I actually want to pay for some characters, because I worry that Capcom might not earn enough money on future content due to the Fight Money system. But we'll see how it turns out. It'll be easier to gauge once all the modes are out.


I'm not even gonna attempt Survival on Hard as long as there are still these server disconnects.
And the CPU difficulty is really weird. It's really stupid most of the time, but then all of a sudden spikes and becomes extremly difficult. I've notice this usually happens with the last three opponents of each 10-block, but it doesn't seem exclusive to them.

 

Yup, the last 3 opponents are beastly. I had to do full health recoveries for each one of the fights. 

 

The combos they unleash on you can be deadly and without full health recovery I stand no chance.
