Street Fighter V Beta Thread: Welcome, future '16ers! (Currently Inactive!)

capcom should have never used 'access to the beta' as a pre-order bonus, its shady at best and people saying 'well just cancel after you get a code' just shows even more incompetence on the part of capcom for not even thinking of that and thats why the servers are being overloaded

for the next round they need to drastically increase the servers or come up with a queue system, all the apologist will say 'this is the reason for a beta' i hardly doubt they are getting any good info or feedback from this train wreck

Bullshit of the highest order.

More people have gotten in the past hour than in the previous two days. Improvements have already been made and people are actually being matched up now.

OMG, I got in! UK here.

Played 4 games, I even won one. Who wants to touch me?

Nash plays fantastically well. Slowly started to get to grips with him over my short play. Character models look brilliant, stages, eh, not so much. Waterfall was my favourite so far.

This is the first and only beta I've ever been a part of where I've never actually gotten to play despite trying since the start.

:/

What a total disappointment so far.

I agree with the first part about pre-order bonuses, but the rest is different. They got data from the first day that said their code and not the number of servers was an issue, so they're fixing it. To get through, they're artificially limiting the number of people to be allowed on to see when it breaks, which is a sensible move in any online development. They've also already deployed fixes so some good has come out of it.

Number of servers doesn't have anything to do with it. Much like Halo, Driveclub and Rocket League, throwing more systems wouldn't help. It's a code problem. They've already said that the full 5 days will still go ahead when they stop limiting the players allowed on, so they'll get even more data then.

It's not an apologist position, if this was the full version I'd be annoyed. I'm more annoyed with people who don't know what they're talking about saying "throw more servers at it" than anything the beta has done thus far.
 
Just when I thought I was getting the hang of 22001, the game busts out a 10003 error. Game-changing!
