DLC appears to be something we're all curious about how it will work: even the devs.
Personally, I think it would go like this:
1. Make all the sprites/animations and stuff.
2. If Falcon likes the character, and is willing to code him into the game, then he does so and releases the game with that char.
That'd be it. Only one character per download.

Wouldn't it just be another file to add into the folder?

Technically yes, but with the need to have a new exe so that the coding is executed, there could only be one at a time.

You mean: One Character Folder + the new .Exe?

Well, it'd basically be like the unreleased beta game that just added Lucario.
You get the fighter folder, the data file, the data-profile file, the menu stuff(mugshots, busts, etc.), and the exe.

I think they'll have something like a separate CSS for the DLC characters, and they'll have a list of characters planned for DLC with specified slots and coding but no files. Then they release the folders required and you download them and can play as the character.

^ Better.
Sounds like some of the Expansions from SSF2.

So we'd have to download the entire game each time we wanted to get a DLC character? No. |

No. Only the Character Animations and the new .Exe

It's basically, as I said above, like the Lucario beta download.
All you get are the things necessary for the game to work, you put the respective things in their places, and play the game.

THAT makes sense.
However, you said "Falcon releases the game with that character".

DLC's are mostly likely not happening for a few reasons:
-After SSBC's release, we devs will be doing different things and I doubt the engine will be released. Crusade needs to stay original.
-Programming issues. Unless you downloaded a handful at a time, adding in more characters would be tiring and annoying. Even worse for the DLC system to be created.
-Who's DLC and Who Isn't. We can't just go and put every character with okay sprites in the game, even as DLC. We'd have to choose the characters that were so close to being in the final roster (Superstar Gang, Frank West, Zant, Aero the Acrobat), characters we would like to have (Metal Sonic, Roll, Crono), and characters requested by other people (...ray...man...) which is just too much after doing everything to decide the original 80 and then going and making almost 50 more characters.
Our ORIGINAL plans for DLC would be an arrow you click on on the right side of the CSS that pans over to the DLC list and loads the characters (idk what order). We've discussed it many times before, and I don't think it will happen.
And I know what you're thinking: "Give us the engine and we'll do it!"
Super Smash Bros. Crusade should remain "untouched" to a certain extent when the final game is released. Not just anyone will be able to do things, if anything at all.

Deoxys should definitely be one of the characters close to being in, IMO. And Rayman?  Although it kind of negates the thing you said about "Give us the engine and we'll do it!", it could be possible to give the source code to someone that would know GML, and would be willing to take the time to do so, that all of you trust. The chances would be unlikely, but I thought I might bring that up. |

I just think in a year, we'll all be tired of working on characters and sprites. Besides, there will be 80 characters to play as and possibly ways to open Metal Mario and Dark Link...

What about the people here that would be willing to add characters by learning the game code.
