lol, how many other games have online play without slapping ads into your game. Plus it’s not like this is a mega blockbuster online title with hundreds of thousands of players requiring loads of server support, this is a fighter with pretty meh sales. Publishers typically support further development on titles via revenue from sales and DLC. Here you have a game that already has almost a free to play progression system requiring loads of grinding (unless you wanna pay more of course) which lead to lower sales, and instead of oh idk, making a better system or game or better expansions, they double down on the douchebaggery by putting ads in the game. And of course they offer you a fight money bonus for leaving them on, because they know that full priced game you bought has a very not full priced game progression system, so people will be very eager to get more fight money in any way possible.
Shitty move from one of the shittiest pubs in the industry. I’m happy to think of all the Xbone/PS4/Switch games ive bought this gen and maybe Dead Rising 3 and 4 are the only Capcom ones? I’m doing God’s work.

If this is a fighter with pretty meh sales, you pretty much just made the case for the ads. In other words, Capcom is looking for ways to keep the budget going for the game and this is one of them. I personally do not have a problem if I can turn them off. As I remember, the game wasn't even going to be made unless Sony put in some funding. If the money isn't coming in from DLC then other means are going to be required to keep the game coming.

I never believed this to be the case. Between 2014 and 2015 they had released three Monster Hunter games for the 3DS, all of them selling more than 4 million copies each. Plus Dead Rising 3 and a bunch of cheap re-releases. They were not lacking money, especially not for their biggest IP. They released SFV in 2016. Either this game took too much money to make (which would be Capcom's fault in the end) or they just fed us that lie to keep the exclusivity deal with Sony (which, once again, Capcom's fault).
