Soul Calibur VI: General discussion

Well, the story so far:

Code: 
DLC1: Tira       Oct 18
DLC2: 2B         Dec 17 ( 60 days since last release)
DLC3: CCS A      Feb 18 ( 63 days since last release)
DLC4: Amy        Mar 25 ( 35 days since last release)
DLC5: CCS B      May 15 ( 51 days since last release)
DLC6: Cassandra  Aug  5 ( 82 days since last release)
DLC7: Hilde      Nov 25 (112 days since last release)
DLC8: CCS C      Nov 25

Obviously, the release gap between Cassandra and Hilde shouldn't really be fully considered by itself, due to it being between season pass 1 ending and season pass 2 beginning, but the full gap between 2B and getting both the first customization pack and Amy is 98 days, and the full gap between that and getting both the second customization pack and Cassandra is 123 days, so assuming it actually does take about 90-120 days (which 112 days actually does fall inbetween, so maybe it was a fair perspective?) to release each subsequent pack from here until the end of season two, then it would seem like we'll get Haohmaru and the fourth customization pack in February or March.

February sounds realistic to me. EVO Japan could be where they show a Haohmaru trailer, and then we get a release a few weeks later.
 
Based on the total amount of "parts" (I use quotations since I barely consider palette swapped effects meaningful additions to the game) we got for the last CaS pack, do y'all think they'll continue to give us ~50 new pieces of content per release? I had my hopes up for classic costumes, even ones from SCV, but that seems like a pipe dream now since we only got one new armor set in the first pack. It seems easier to upscale existing parts than to create new hit effects and armor pieces?

Also, does anyone else think we might get some Samurai Showdown parts to go with Haohmaru's release? Square Enix was incredibly generous with 2B usage rights with her costumes, moveset and character model, but I know based on previous guest character appearances that isn't always the case.
 
It honestly is hard to judge right now. Pack C definitely is quite disappointing after Packs A and B, and it’s made even worse by the fact that the anime/manga hit effects have been in the game since Pack B, and the flower petals and hearts have been in the game since Cassandra, not accessible officially until now, so if you even discount those things as “parts”, there’s even less in Pack C than there could charitably said otherwise. Haohmaru is going to be like 2B in that he won’t have a classic outfit to bring back, so my hopeful side wants to say that Pack D will be more substantive as a result.

This is the price we pay for getting packs WITH characters at the same time. In order to keep the season pass under $40 they give less creation content per each pack. This is a huge shame.

When I think of this....if they always intend to combine creation and characters in a season pass we will probably never get a pass with 6 characters.....

That being said...I think these smaller packs will be doled out over Season 2 and hopefully Season 3 to eventually give us more old stuff...

Itd be neat if we got some other SamSho character outfits along with Haohmaru, like say Galford and Ukyo outfits for males and Nakoruru and Charlotte for females.

To be honest, I don't think any of the 1P from SC Kids look good on veterans. But 2p are welcomed, specially Pyrrha's Ill Fate outfit. :sc5pyr1:

we just need more options. It's what this game lacks. we lack characters and we lack parts! We must wait til 2021 ends for us to have more characters (if we get season 3) than SC4 and SC5.....

V had a roster of 28, right? I'm not sure the exact count for the roster of IV but by the end of this season, VI will be up to 29 characters.

Since they gave us a pack focused on stickers and whatnot, I wonder if we'll get a hairstyle-focused pack at some point. I wouldn't be mad about that tbh. Provided whatever equipment we got was decent anyway.

I highly doubt it. Stickers are way easier to create compared to hairstyles. I would be happy to just get one or two hairstyles but an entire pack? Very unlikely. Unless you mean hairstyles of characters from previous games, then it might be possible.

Yeah I mostly meant hairstyles from SC4 and 5 that weren't brought into 6. Definitely not a whole bunch of new ones.
 
I would literally cry if they gave us Low Pigtails back from SoulCalibur III. Very unlikely, but a girl can dream...
