Iconic Costumes - DLC

If every character (except for the SC5 new characters) had ONE of their previous costumes from a prior game return available as a DLC, which one is most likely to be it ?

In general, 1P costume has way more longevity and impact than their 2P, but the feasibility of the choices depend on several qualitative factors.


Nightmare SC2 1P (iconic enough to make the project soul logo)
Ivy Sc2 1P (toss up between this one and the SC1 1P)
Cerventes SC2 1p (looks zombie pirate enough without the kraken theme from SC4)
Astaroth SC3 1P (red asta looked really intimidating)
Yoshimitsu SC2 2P (just looked freaky with his multi heads)
Maxi Sc2 1P (sleeveless looks better on him)
Mitsurugi Sc3 1P (best version)
Siegfried Sc4 1P (his most powerful form, and made the story line intro movie)
Hilde SC4 2p (since she already has an armored form for her SC5 1p)

every other confirmed character probably looked best and most iconic in the 1p costume of the game they were introduced in.
 
you changed you avatar pic again didn't you?

i would personally like Ivy's SC2 3P outfit. she looked nice in that red.

i'm alright with raph's new outfit but i still don't like the bat symbols because they remind me that he's a vampire now. so i would like to see his SC2 1P outfit. as well as those piercing blue eyes he had too.
 
I kinda hope we can make them in the character editor, but if it has to be DLC...

I really agree for Nightmare SC2 1P, best looking nightmare imo !
Seeing Siegfried as Nightmare SC2 2P could be fun too
And I believe Yoshi's multiheads was 1P in SC2
 
First off, I hope if they do armor breaks, shit doesn't come flying entirely off. PLEASE just put rips and shit like that back in, Namco. Anyway, have a long ass, organized list.

Maxi
Nightmare
Siegfried
Raphael
Voldo
Yoshimitsu
Zasalamel
 
For Ivy its a tie between SC1 2p or SC2 1p. But if could have my way it would be Ivy SC2 1p with SC3 1p armour instead.
Cerventes SC2 2p

 
Mitsu SC3 1p, so much the best one

Night SC2 1p, logo no need words

Asta SC1 1p, epic classic (yet used as SC4 2p)

Cervy SC1 2p, teh mighty golden armour (yet used as SC4 2p)

Sieg i just hope NOT the SC4 ones. Personally i like SC3 1p

Pyrrah: Sophi SC1 1p

Voldo i will like SC3 2p,that was great concept. But about iconic SB 1p or 2p

Maxi SC1 3p, legendary

Viola will eventually get a classic Amy outfit


Said that, i will prefer WAY more "Skin Characters": different name, 3d model,weapon(just visually),win pose/quotes BUT totally identical moveset and gameplay
(*=if he's in)

If this is the case

Mitsu - Arthur
Yun*- Hwang
Natsu- Taki
Maxi- Li Long
Leixia- Xianghua
Pyrrah-Sophi (i pray for NO Sophi in SCV)
Night- Algol (with his SE sword) or the classic Inferno
Asta/Bangoo*- Rock (depend wich one is closer)
Setsuka replacer*- Setsuka
Mokujin char*- Edgemaster ftw

I did'nt put in Kilik because Xiba is definitely shorter, a taller 3d model will affect gameplay
 
I'll bite. But I'll pick one per character of my interest.

Yoshimitsu SCIV - 1P. I've gotten so attached to this one.
Raphael SCII - 1P. Simple yet elegant.
Hilde SCIV - 1P. Attached to this one.
Mitsurugi SCII - 1P. Should his old mitsu armor get up look lame.....
Tira SCIII - 1P. What started it all for her.


That's about it.
 
Nightmare SC2 1P (iconic enough to make the project soul logo)

I would purchase the shit out of that so fast. Does it come with his SC2 voice too?

Both of Siegfried's costumes from SC3 would be nice too. They should also bring back Raphael's SC2 1P and Cervantes' SC2 1P and 2P.
 
  • Siegfried: SC III P2 costume (my personal favorite)
  • Raphael: SC II P1 or P2 (the red one with the goatee) costume
  • Tira: SC III P1 costume (she looks best here, I think)
  • Ivy: SC III P2 costume (the only Ivy costume I've ever liked)
  • Maxi: His basic P2 costume, but with black hair, not blond
  • Natsu/Taki (depending on if she's playable): Taki's SC II P2 costume (my favorite Taki)
  • Cervantes: One of his purple getups
  • Nightmare: SC II P1 costume
 
Definitely. I was hoping they would do this in SCIV but sadly, they never got around to it so I'm hoping they do it in this game. I honestly think they should include all, and I do mean ALL of the previous clothing as well as hairstyles as CAS equipment. I personally loved every single outfit (including the ones in Soul Edge/Blade) up till IV where I only liked a select few lol. Also, it can help keep the characters who aren't going to continue (Sophitia, Cassandra, Xianghua, etc.) have their memories live on if you know what I mean? So yeah, I am really hoping Namco does this.

I mean, maybe they can do this. Say a few months later after the game is out, they offer a DLC pack called "Siegfried Collection pack" which includes all of Siegfried's past 1P & 2P outfits broken down into pieces for the slots from Soul Edge, Soul Calibur 2, Soul Calibur 3, & Soul Iv. And then maybe a few weeks later, they can offer the "Sophitia Collection Pack" which includes all of her outfits and so on till all the characters are done. I'm sure Namco would make a reasonable profit if they did this because I know if I had the extra money, I'd pay for them. And lastly, along with that, they should also include a pack called "Unused Concept Pack" which includes the unused concepts that they didn't go through with in the final design for CAS equipment because honestly, I think a lot of them were pretty cool and I'd totally use them. But yeah, I think it would be a good move for Namco to do with SCV. :)
 
This was what I've been asking for since the new characters were announced damn it. I think they should start by giving everyone their past costumes from SC3 for Creation mode usage but unlocked as outfits based on their nicknames. I mean, people who beg for cassandra can have their Pyrrha dressed as her if it is unlocked after the storymode is beaten in a certain way under certain conditions or if you say fight her as a sub-destiny battle.

"The Valiant Princess" Title gives you cassandra's past outfits.
"The Azure Knight" Title gives you Nightmare's past armor.

Id like that over crap like "Generic#1/Generic#2" etc. In CAS
 
CaS already looks much better than in 4. You'll have more than enough tools to satisfy your visual needs. If I were you, I wouldn't waste my money on character skins I could make myself.
 
You cant make the past characters without their clothing. Duh.
Uh... But you do have it. And with the new sticker, pattern and special item systems, re-making classic characters is gonna be really easy. And I don't see what the 'duh' is for, to me you just want to fight for no reason? Are you a masochist?

Are you tellimg me you can make clothing attachments out of thin air just because we have a pattern tool? I don't follow. I want the exact costumes.
