Street Fighter V: A Preliminary Thread

[Kaelan?]

do you at least have the option of turning off matchmaking during training mode in retail, or is the forced matchmaking from the beta still in effect

Pretty sure they turned that on earlier because they were testing the netcode in the betas. That's gone from the retail version, training mode works like usual now. It would be pretty insane to ship with that.

So with the lack of character select screen, this game just copied the method that we're used to with arcsys games. As far as i remember, all arcsys games from blazblue and on made you select a character right off the bat before a ranked/player match.

Yeah, the thing with that though is that in BB and P4, you get a char select screen when you go into the ranked match menu. There's no way to queue for a match without hitting the char select screen first, and accidentally get the wrong character. After you pick a character, you set your options and look for a match. If you want to switch characters, you just cancel the match search and go to the previous menu. In SF you have to go all the way back to the main options menu. It also never even tells you that this is how it works. A lotta people will go in the first ranked match w/ default Ryu and have no idea wtf is going on. No idea why they made it like that. Gonna confuse the hell out of casual players.

I'm guessing they're gonna work double time to patch that shit right up once everyone starts pointing out how terrible it is.

Currently holding an 83. Better than Ultra on PS4, but equal or less than previous SF entries.

Update!

Legacy pads/sticks banned from EVO.

I'd say Madcatz wins, but really that means Brooks wins.

Also I just got the new version of the Hori Fighting Commander in, and I'd strongly recommend it for any pad players. Besides PS3/4 support it also includes a 3rd mode for X Input on PC. They also mercifully removed the rotating d-pad so it won't have to be re-adjusted every couple fights. Think I'm going with this for fighting games going forward. Though if you have big hands it will probably suck, its definitely not made for people with above average hand sizes

Gonna double just to make sure people see it, Evo registration opens on the 18th @ 7PST/10EST

Edit : Nvidia released Game Ready drivers, not that the game necessarily needs them.

I doubt its going to get anywhere near SFIV's 93%

The general consensus is the game is not finished. But hey its just beta amirite?

Yo I defended it hardcore for months, but as it's released now, I"ve been pretty honest about the fact that a lot of shit it's doing is stupid lol

[fantasticdan]

LZ has shown multiple times how the driver is just plug and play, no idea how other devs keep fucking up the implementation lol

Makes me wonder what kind of cut capcom makes on SF branded peripherals.

[Tohmane]

Playing on pad feels so weird for USF4. Good thing everything will be brand new in V until I bag me one of those converters.

Markman fired, finally.

Also, apparently, he tried to fly out a cosplayer to an event for sex LOL.

[Krandor]

[gaira]

same here.

watching this daigo vs. lupe fiasco thing even though i have no idea who fiasco is or why they're fighting. guess it's release publicity.

[Nitsuki]

Isn't lupe fiasco a fucking dj or something? I swear he's a dj from miami.

[Krandor]

Well, he's won a Grammy before. I personally don't know shit about any rap since around the time Tupac and Biggie died, but he's somewhat relevant.
