Soul Calibur VI: General discussion

Furthermore I dislike relegating SCV's special equipment to "races", I could do a lot with Elf ears for example besides just...well ears.
 
We already know what the Season pass will contain, so there won't be 2P in the game. At this point the only hope left for 2P outfits is if the game will be too successful and they'll do a second season pass, and many people will request alt costumes, then it may happen, maybe.

Really sucks, Namco you're the people that invented this concept, now throw in the toilet? weird. Also i suspect some executive at Bamco may see Soul Calibur as same as other anime franchise where it don't matter if the character has one costume (like Naruto or Goku). But that's not the same thing. Weird but anyway i'm trying to not be too mad, tho i'm pissed about it, but *try calm myself... try calm myself...*

If they didn't have the budget for it they could have done them as DLCs, i really don't get it.... but anyway.

I don’t know if you guys know it yet, but i just saw the IGN interview during Gamescom with the SC product manager, he said Tira is coming in DLC but with her story line in the story mode (if i understood correctly), so the don’t sell only a character in DLC, they sell their story mode too, but maybe it will only be Tira

I just watched the stream just a few minutes ago to see a CaS with Cervantes' style & heard that too. All DLC characters will possibly have a Soul Chronicle. So Lines can be added.

It's possible that you may be able to use them still across different races, maybe. They showed the one character with the Horns of Calamity moving them around like normal special equipment, and that character may or may not have been a Lost Soul (Horned). I think the perk of the races is just that it makes the racial parts unbreakable.
 
If they didn't make 2Ps for Tekken, what made you guys think they would make them for Calibur ?
It's not the same. On Tekken 7 all characters have new alternate and exclusive costumes in customization along with the generic items.
On Soul Calibur we only have generic items in customization.
 
So sad for 2P costumes... Okubo said we could create the « old ones » but before to create we shoulb be able to select a large quantity of clothes, armors etc. For now, all i saw were clothes from SC5 CaS...

Well, in that we don't know what is going to be in the two armor packs from the season pass, those could actually be 2p costumes.

That seems like such an odd choice though, I still maintain a checkbox toggle would've been the best way to control breakability. I guess it was foolish to assume Namco would have taken any kind of cursory look at SCV's modding. :/

An interesting thing in regards to that is that means there could, albeit unlikely, be more to come with DLC characters that we don't know of. Could be music for stages, stages themselves, etc. But, there's no way to be sure of that. Still, you never know what they could be hiding.

To take things from the negative for a moment, unless someone can find and show it for sure, I could swear I noticed a brief glimpse of what looked like a lobby including connection bars and such at one point, I think mixed in with when they were showing off the CaS characters fighting. Looked like 8 player slots like T7, though I could be wrong about what I was seeing entirely. Cervantes' style shown on the CaS makes me wonder if that was shown by accident, or just to further reassure fans of him as a character/style that he's in but they didn't have a reveal trailer for him ready yet or something.

As for CaS for those interested, I'd say that's an interesting thing Kayane posted that there will be 100 CaS slots and the ability for friends to download your CaS characters and use them, with the only restriction being you can't modify them if you don't have some of what is used on the character in question.
 
Tbh it's been a while i noticed than BN don't realize the importance of alt costumes in Fighting games those last years. Even Tekken 7 not only they didn't change the default costumes at the start when the game was at vanilla, but there weren't 2P and all the customization they were adding was generic/common to all characters, until fans has to "whine" for quite sometimes then great stuffs happened like new defaults costumes and more unique per character customization.
