Street Fighter V: A Preliminary Thread

[Thulius]

Top SF4 players were too dumb to stop mashing quickrise into the same bad Birdie setup LPN did over and over so it's getting harder to take this perceived simplicity of SF5 seriously.

Final beta an open beta to everyone, even those who haven't preordered, January 30-31. first DLC in march.

Edit: Above info is from Gematsu, while the press release says you still have to preorder to play the beta and first story dlc is in June.

[shidobu]

beta popped early. just incase yalldidnt know it was up.. pc version up too

[Weltall]

Ken lost running step kick?? As if he wasn't already boring as fuck and lame to play?

Also, how the FK do I select my character? If I go to training mode with Ken and get a match, it gives me Ryu. If I go straight to Ranked Match it never takes me to the character select screen and gives me Ryu???

Edit: So you have to go to settings and select your "Favorite character". lol....

As in Hold MP+MK run kick? The fuck?

[Weltall]

Seems it is still there, but it works differently? It certainly isn't the same as before. Comes out different timing or something.

[Weltall]

There is no way Bison will not be top tier. This game is way too damn slow and he just dominates because of it.

yeah this favorite character stuff is dumb shit ¬.¬ why no character select screen. I hope this is only the case for the beta.

Also i cant get a grasp of chun li and i try to use crush counters to setup combos. but anythign outside of jab doesnt combo into after a dash, or doesnt reach if i dont dash. I am totally lost ¬.¬
+ Playing on a PS4 controller sucks...

so i found out chuns jumping MP gives juggle state after hitting, but i cant follow up with her stomp kick wtf lol

This game's lag is so fucking atrocious.

[Krandor]

I would take bad matches with even MVC3 netcode over the monstrosity this games unleash when lag arrives.

[Moridam]

wow yeah jesus christ this game utterly collapses under lag.

[GoggleHead]

Weren't they supposed to be improving the netcode?

[Krandor]

With a good connection matches feel very good. But introduce the slightest lag and you get the teleporting bullshit all over the place.

I had a game earlier where in the span of about a frame Necalli was instantly halfway across the screen DPing me.

I also find myself wondering if the developers for this game know what texture filtering is, because my god do the textures in this game look fucking terrible.

So it's like SFxT?

[Thulius]

It's like any game with rollback netcode and dropped packets. The problem is wifi.

[Moridam]

ugh i really need to disabuse myself of the SF4 habit of fishing with cr.mk into special. laura's cr.mk just looks like it's begging to cancel into mp shoulder, but i never ever have the CH when i actually wind up going for it, lol.

[Nitsuki]

They really should have a wifi fucking detector. In all seriousness it's 2016... Fucking 2016... Why the fuck don't games have a wifi detector so you can avoid them like the plague??? The game should be fucking programmed to tell you that they're on fucking wifi because you know...

[TheDirtyHobo]

I would wager there's significantly more people on wifi than wired at this point. Hell, the PS4 doesn't even have an ethernet port.
