Yes! More Bass.exe push! I really want someone from Battle Network and he has the best chance to make it in... unlike Serenade.exe T_T. Also please Capcom, give X a Copy X skin.
These are the only reasonable choices for X's alts:
For cool factor:
For obscure reference factor:
Died for our sins factor:
Yeah, I understand. Feels like they are negotiating rights for waaaay more time than actually developing the game
If the game is doing Season style updates, i'd be down with season 2 being a Mutant themed event or something.
Eh, as long as I get my Storm and Wolvie idgaf if I have to pay extra.
Very happy to hear this, thank you.

In other circles the term "Brood Ryu" has been used. *shrug*
Of course they wouldn't keep them out. Just like I've been saying (except for the DLC part of course).

So many more I wanted to add like Iron Fist but this is my "safe bet list" of cast I expect will make it in fairly easily. Here's hoping I'm right because my Capcom side aint that safe lol. I'd just like to see Dino Crisis, Godhand, Sengoku Basara, and Powerstone in the game this time around is all.
wait, you heard Ryu in the trailer, we got Powerstone already!
They just insured that I'm going to buy DLC for this game if this is true. I'm all in. Can't wait to play this.

It was no where near a certainty....

As in "Heathcliff"
Honestly I'm not surprised with that move because of a rumor that Neoxon brought to my eyes. He said there is a rumor where Marvel is going to loose up the blacklist (or ban list) with Fox characters starting next year. I presume that they probably worked out with some kind of deals so both sides are happy with what they got.
If your source is correctly then I'm pretty sure there would be many happy fans are willing to shell out their money to get their favorite X-Men characters. Heck, I would.
I'm happy but considering how much costumes cost in SFV, I bet they'll be more expensive. T_T

That makes sense to me as this game would've started development while the Fox ban was in place, but now they're said to be easing up on those characters so they have a chance as DLC.
Be cool to get themed X-Men/FF packs.

The most important thing about this is that Neo will stop posting about the goddamn X-Men ban now 
Too much money to be made leaving them out, and the DLC angle is super smart. I look forward to this

Aw yiss.
Does that imply they're for sure gone from the main game?
Gotta start with Wolvie, Mags, and Doom. $20 for the three and people would buy it.
You'll be happy when you cough up that X-Money for DLC.

That would be some fuckery.
That's great to hear, we won't have to wait long after to see the likes of Morph, Marrow, Bone claw wolverine and H.E.R.B.I.E
I really don't know much about the base roster at the moment, but I would guess so. I'm not sure why X-Men and Fantastic Four would be singled out as DLC if they were going to be on the disc.

They cost that much because all the gameplay affecting stuff (characters,stages) can be purchased with in-game currency so you don't HAVE to pay.
This game is most likely gonna have paid-only characters though so the cost should be less. Or at least I hope so.

I don't like this tbh, if only for the eventual delisting ala Shuma + Jill
Well, I suppose that's better than no X-Men at all.

Thank you for this.

Hopefully we can get a retail bundle at the end to prevent that.
With all the changes they're making and how screwed up SFV launched they can't afford to please fans. And as soon as they started appealing to the FGC crowd with Mahvel references it was obvious to me that those characters are not going to be shunned.
Bringing back fan favorites is the easiest way to increase interest among pessimistic Marvel FGC peeps.

Yo for realThe most important thing about this is that Neo will stop posting about the goddamn X-Men ban now
Resident Evil monsters on the Capcom side too
Also, thanks Ryce!
This game continues to sound worse than UMvC3 in every way. At least that game is now readily available to everyone.
This makes sense. The official word is that the Fox character ban was only lifted recently, correct? They probably didn't have an opportunity to add X-Men and Fantastic Four characters when they were locking down the roster, but do now, when they are looking at the game's future. It's unfortunate, but better than nothing I suppose.
Yeh, the update to Ultimate and keeping the old dlc as dlc was strange and short sighted.

At least they're coming, I guess

Do you know if Marvel asked for the X-men to be available only as DLC, or if it's Capcom decision ?
Stone Ocean

That only happened because making them free in Ultimate would completely fuck over the people that had bought them.
So, what X-Men and Fantastic Four characters do people want?
For me, Dust and Annihilus respectively.
We can probably forget about Gwenpool being in the base game, then.
Since Dust and Annihilus are extremely unlikely to ever make it, this doesn't change anything for me, except having to wait even longer for characters I actually want. I'm happy for fans of those characters though.

I don't know. I'm assuming X-Men were off limits back when the base roster was being finalized. Or maybe it was more along the lines of "you can include them, but only as DLC" in order to keep the X-Men off the box art and out of story mode.

Now THAT is how you sell a season pass. Could you imagine a pass where suddenly Mags, Doom, Storm, Sent and Wolvy were your season? Money in the bank baby.
well, there it is.
Capcom continues to show up capcom
I mean, it makes sense from a licensing decision. It allows the game to continue to be supported indefinitely from the Marvel side and allow contracts with Fox to be worked with on their end.
