i was thinking updates were always free, i dont remember paying for the AC3 update to get connors hood back, or the far cry 3 update, or even the skyrim updates, i dont play capcom games so i guess they usually charge for updates?
Wait, they updated AC3 to get the hood back? Seriously? Crap, I need to start playing again, now that I don't have to keep looking at his stupid haircut.
And, no. Capcom doesn't charge for updates but they used to be the kings of disc-locked content.
They explained why they did it, at least for fighting games and said they wouldn't do it anymore. (granted, we've yet to see if they're telling the truth) They KINDA had it in RE6 but it was free if you signed up for their stupid online stat-tracking thing.
@Seraphim I don't think they'll easily give up something that makes them money. They've been defending their disc locked content for a while now and I don't see them ever changing.
I was thinking the same thing, updates are always free, like PlayStation 3 / XBOX 360 operating system updates changing designs or adding features. It never made any sense to me when people say the update is free.
They're trying to soften the blow by introducing the idea that they can charge for updates in your mind by using this subtle way when they DO start charging you for updates. Better watch out folks.
Its all psychology life.In the end it s customers that decide.Many complain that Crapcom etc milk us(not me),they are stupid they say.well since many of you feel milked then you are the cow(im talking in general).its all customers fault PERIOD.resi4 was the last one I bought.thnx to ps+ I m enjoyin lots of games.
"Free update" Hah, if you are hinting at that in the future I'm going to be paying for a $60 game. Then on top of that in the very close future I will have to pay for updates to fix that shitty $60 game....welp...I guess no more gaming for me. I'll sit and laugh while the video game industry crashes and burns while I'm off doing something better and less Jewish.
We all know Capcom loves charging us for stuff. So, maybe they felt the need to include "Free" in the description so we didn't automatically assume it would cost money. :P
I like how everyone is jumping on Capcom, when they did not write the story they said there is a title update as per usual, yet when the author adds in free it becomes an issue.
Every comment here is talking about it being free, it's just the way the other site wrote the title, no need to get so worked up. Can't we just talk about what the actual update offers?

They've come such a long way from CHARGING for additional costume colors in Street Fighter, haha!
