Support NeoGAF

[katsubento]

I'm ready!

 

[Fernando Fernandez]

First as in your first stick ever?

Because if so, there's a bit of an adjustment period. Just make sure to stick with it.

I got a mad catz fight (the wrestling one) stick almost brand new for £20 yesterday. Been trying to get used to it, you're not wrong about the adjustment! Taking awhile to get used to the Ultras.

 

[Young Magus]

Can my Geforce 730 work well/decent with this game?

 

[Stone Ocean]

Can my Geforce 730 work well/decent with this game?

It should, the game is pretty well optimized and from what I hear it relies more on your CPU than on your graphics card.

 

[LongARMz]

I just preordered so now I have a 3 steam beta keys to gift. If anyone wants it they are welcome to it. Just shoot me a message. Going to bed now but I will check back in the morning.

 

[LifEndz]

Finally get to try out the first fightstick I've bought for this. Can't wait.

Which one did you get? I'm interested in the mad catz one but it feels a little expensive to me.

 

[RS4-]

Is there lobbies or private matches?

Awesome. Pm sent!

Is there some sort of single sign on to our capcom account that can maintain things such as fight money and dlc across platforms? Ex. Whatever i earn on ps4 is also carried over to pc and vice versa. I would guess no but not sure if its been clarified.

 

[Stallion Dan]

Reminds me I need gut my TE1 for sticks and buttons and shove the parts into my HRAP4K.

Probably not, because the prices for stuff on PC gonna tank sooner or later, and people would just buy it there instead of PSN. They'd be throwing away money.

oops

 

[twozerotwo]

Anyone remember if you need Plus? I can't remember when mine expired so I'm not sure if I need it or not.

 

[J 0 E]

Any word on supporting PS3 sticks on PS4 like USFIV?

 

[SephLuis]

Its a regular online mode, so I would say yes.

I coud've sworn that you don't need PS+ for the beta. But once the full game is out, yeah you will.

sadly, no. People really need to start tweeting in droves and making noise about this so they have to at least acknowledge it

 

[ACE 1991]

Are there any good character specific guides for V yet?

Oh yeah.

I was thinking I'd just buy a month because I haven't touched my PS4 in a while and re-up on my year of Plus on release.

Thanks!

I bet this question has been asked before, but other Ryu, are there any other characters that are better or worse than others for an SF newbie?

 

[ShinMaruku]

No.
I played it without plus.

 

[mnz]

Thanks!

I think the other go-to character in this game is Chun-Li. It will teach you to use your normals more, how charge moves work and you don't need Ryu's unique parry V-Skill.
There are also a lot of grapplers in the game, but I don't know which one would be a good start.

 

[wbacon]

Hopefully there's no 10 hour long maintenance sessions.

Barring any unforeseen issues, plan is to keep it up for the duration of the beta.

That's 3 betas in a row where my parents visit me from out of town that weekend. Are they in cahoots? Does Capcom talk to my mom before deciding what weekend the beta should be?

Sorry, we had to consult your mother for your wellbeing. Too much salt is not good for the body, so we agreed it was for the best that she spend quality time with you.

On a more serious note, this is our final beta before launch so we're trying to include as many characters as possible.

As a reminder, anyone who've opted in to previous betas are automatically in for CBT4.

If you currently don't have access to the beta, you can:

1) pre-order from the North American PSN Store or Steam digital version worldwide to receive the pre-order edition which auto-grants beta access. (Non-NA PSN regions I believe are still lottery-based.)

2) pre-order from participating retailers for the disc version including GameStop/EB, BestBuy, and Amazon. You should receive a separate beta download key upon pre-ordering the game.

3) get the beta key from a friend/fellow GAFer. Some should still have extra friends & family giveaway codes left.

I'll be playing on both PS4 (HadokenCab) and Steam (wbacon) this weekend, so some of you are destined face my fury. I'm a total scrub...hopefully I'll be able to reduce your NaCl intake and get you prepped for launch. At least I should be a bit more entertaining than the training AI.

 

[『Inaba Resident』]

I really thought they let'd us test lobbies at some point before the game came out.

 

[bloodforge]

I pre-order from amazon a few weeks ago and never got a beta code.

 

[Gipsy Danger]

I pre-order from amazon a few weeks ago and never got a beta code.

Amazon US?

Try contacting them or cancelling and reupping the pre-order.

bug their live chat. You'll have it in minutes.

So hyped for Beta 4

Keep in mind that this is from an old beta. Much of this has changed. I.E. Those Karin shoulder mixups do not work anymore.

 

[Coda]

Same, I hope most of the characters are unlocked this time from the get-go.

 

[MikeBreezy92]

Seeing Ken catch nerfs again is mad disappointing but I'll play him if he's in....or just play laura and avoid disappointment.

 

[Woody Invincible]

Please tell me that Mika has recovered a bit from her nerf bat.

 

[『Inaba Resident』]

Please tell me that Mika has recovered a bit from her nerf bat.

She's still good as she has been through all betas.

Yeah and Tenko is really unsafe, even the "just frame" one (does it have a name yet?). But it's a start.

 

[NoctisVsStar]

Capcom could nerf Ken to oblivion won't stop me from using him. The army is strong since 92.

 

[Cindi Mayweather]

Can't wait to mess with Chun, Nash, and Birdie.

Sounds like a depressing life to lead lol.

There's another? XD

I preordered this since the last beta. I'm excited to get my ass whooped mercilessly.

I'll wait for the final release before purchasing a new stick

 

[Kade]

Any good Karin replays/guides showing how to deal with projectiles and getting in against defensive opponents? I think that was my biggest issue playing as her in past betas.

 

[Dark Ninja]

You guys think they will have a rematch button or messaging system in the final release

Ressenha is very good against projectiles.

 

[CountBlack]

They buffed most of the casts cr.HK to do from 90 -> 100 damage. Guess they're trying to give players more initiative to using CH sweeps as a punish and/or more rewarding footsies.

Also, qcf.kk goes through projectiles.

They also added a lot of stun to throws. I don't know if anyone saw Alex Valle's stream after the EVO announcement, but he explained how he thinks the game is build around stun.
