I'm saddened by the beta down times. I was going to invite some friends over to try out the beta tonight but Capcom had other ideas.

 

[Jinfash]

Hit up live chat and get it instantly.

That worked. Thanks!

 

[this guy are sick]

Who thought maintenance from 4PM-2AM GMT on a Friday was a good idea?

I was pretty mad at first but sat/sun is basically up the entire time for normal timekeeping euros

Wait, what?? It's not up until late night?

 

[grimmiq]

Well that's a bit weird to see when I first open the new thread.

Really enjoying the beta so far but man do I suck. Hopefully I'll get through a couple of hundred losses in the Beta so I don't get them at launch.

 

[Sinatar]

There is 20 hours of maintenance in this 3 day beta, it's pretty ridiculous.

 

[Ame]

The beta should at least run 4-5 days. Is it always just for 3?

Ends on Sunday.

 

[Moaradin]

I really hope they enable some of the Beta 1 and Beta 2 characters by the end of this.

Of course the majority of players in the Beta are SF hardcore fans...
More casual players at launch so I wouldnt worry too much about this.

 

[Coda]

Really hope they add R. Mika tonight at 9 PM EST.

Every time zone thinks that they're being screwed lol

 

[HardRojo]

Might not even be able to play tonight as I'll be going over to a friend's for a party. Oh well...

 

[Clawww]

10 hours of downtime is fucked when the whole thing only lasts a few days

 

[RedEther]

I'm hoping sim will be available at 9pm est.

 

[K.Sabot]

capcom japan like "just take the servers down for the night and we'll turn it back on when we go to work in the morning and call it maintenance"

 

[RK9039]

Will there be new characters available after the maintenance? I really wanted to try Dhalsim.

Also I still have one more Steam key to give away if anyone still wants one.

 

[Freiya]

Still have it? I'm considering the pre-order to try it but if I can get a code, even better. http://steamcommunity.com/id/ayjis

Kinda bummed there's no bison but hopefully he shows up after a maint.

Done! Enjoy ;D

 

[tariniel]

Done! Enjoy ;D

Thank you! Greatly appreciated

 

[Dartastic]

Here here. Especially considering all the issues they've had with the past betas.

 

[hey_it's_that_dog]

This is the shortest one so far and has the most inconvenient (and long) maintenance breaks as well.

I'm glad I'm already sold on the game and wasn't particularly excited about this last beta phase.

 

[FadedRevolution]

I got a pc code if anybody wants it. Just send a pm and leave your steam.

Edit: I got 2 more pc beta gifts if anybody wants them send pm with steam.

 

[Tan]

Are people actually getting more than 1 beta gift on steam? I've only ever gotten 1.

 

[Sinatar]

As someone who works in IT I gotta wonder what kind of maintenance they are doing that requires 10 bloody hours. Defragging the whole drive array across every server?

 

[ElFly]

Maybe they don't want to have their people checking the servers on a weekend.

Ono gotta sleep at some point.

 

[Crab Milk Mickey]

Unlocking Zangief instead of Dhalsim once the servers get back up. Profound sadness.

 

[Nightfall]

Does anyone have a spare PS4 code? Would really appreciate it

 

[StriKeVillain]

Thanks FR for the Steam code!

 

[KaYotiX]

Anybody have an extra steam code for beta? Its more for testing if my pc can run it ok since i have a fight stick. Otherwise ill have to grab it on PS4

 

[DR2K]

10 hours of downtime is fucked when the whole thing only lasts a few days

Yeah that's a lot of down time for a beta of a game that's had multiple betas and is coming out in 2 months.

 

[Coda]

I'm assuming the downtime is just downtime and not really too much maintenance. Still kind of silly, I just want this game to be out at this point so I don't have to work around my schedule to play it. I can't believe how close to release the game really is.

 

[MindofKB]

I've got one. Message me your Steam email address and I'll send it over.

 

[Kei-]

When I signed on during the small stress test a few days ago on PSN, I got a message telling me not to forget to give a code to my friend to try the beta on PS4 , but I didn't get any extra code. Where am I supposed to find this code?

Yeah I was about to ask this. I participated on the first two betas but I have no extra PSN codes :\

 

[Ragnorok64]

Can't believe I was so far off with when I thought the Beta would be up and down. Thanks first post

 

[Robcat]

Looking for a pc beta code. I just put my arcade cabinet together and I would love to try this out.

 

[Skilletor]

I think I read here that it's in the message list in-game, so you wouldn't be able to access it until the beta comes back.

Add me on steam. same name as GAF.

 

[pizzacat]

There's something telling me this won't be the last test lol

 

[Dante]

Are sticks recognized on the PC beta? Last time I had some issues.

 

[Emperor Bohe]

does anyone have a steam beta code? i would reallllllly appreciate it! don't have a ps4 and won't have one till like mid next year probably...

my steam id is: emperorbohe

or PM me... thanks! =D

 

[Scrub Mcgrubb]

I really hope they enable some of the Beta 1 and Beta 2 characters by the end of this.

The files for everyone except FANG are already on our systems... just a matter of Capcom flipping the on switch.

Dunno why they aren't giving us the option for Ken and Ryu's Alpha costumes, they've already been modded

 

[Holy Order Sol]

Have music rips been made available yet?

 

[Twookie]

so i got a ps4 code from sony and it says that it has either been used or that it is invalid

is this just for NA or what happened here

euro here btw

 

[J-Skee]

Can you access the beta at all while servers are down, or do you just get stuck at the title screen like the previous betas?

 

[Robcat]

Add me on steam. same name as GAF.

Added. You will be my first steam friend

What makes think they intend to make those costumes free ?

Anything can be modded. Capcom's intentions with DLC are unknown.

It'd be bad press to have free costumes in beta and then make you pay for them.

 

[petghost]

i wonder how much of a problem for capcom people digging up files of payed content and modding them in is gonna be


how do mobas keep a lock on all the shit they sell?

 

[Squishy3]

I would think the Alpha costumes would be something you unlock for beating the story mode, considering you play as them in the tutorial. (which effectively works as the introduction for the game) I'm pretty sure they wouldn't be that stupid to give you costumes you see in-game upon booting it up for the first time as DLC only.

Especially since I don't think we know if costumes will be able to be bought with fight money or not.

 

[Nightii]

Yo, anybody still have a free PC key for the beta, please? ID is Welkryu.
