Street Fighter V Beta IV Thread: Jan 30-31

What's this crush counter thing? Can someone explain what this is?
Certain normals for every characte, when they are done as counters, do extra damage and keep the enemy in a stunned state for longer, allowing combos that normally aren't possible.

I'd recommend watching bafael's videos on the new mechanics of SFV.
 
Can anyone help me out?

I haven't found any matches in any of these betas. I don't know what I should do, I have the PC version and all my other games work fine.
 
First beta that I've gotten in, is it me or are there like virtually no Ken players online? Such a stark contrast from the early days of SSF4, im seeing a really diverse set of characters online.

Nearly all of my opponent last night were Kens. I wish I wasn't running into any.
 
Amazon.com (and not .jp or .co.uk or something?)

Weird. Amazon.com gave me an extra key even when I cancelled a standard edition order for the collector's edition.

They keep telling me it will only be sent when the game ships. I've tried with multiple people. I have the collector's edition pre-ordered.
 
I have to use a pad cause I'm at work. I can not churn butter on a pad.

Running through the five with my woes.

So, how many rage quitters did you get so far? I'm still at 1.

0, then again, I've been the one close to ragequitting. Mika mirrors are seriously some of the worst shit ever, really can't figure it out, everything I do just doesn't work, I try to grab, they punish me, they try to grab me and I just get fucked
 
This network filter doesn't do anything, I'm getting opponents from across the ocean, those were 2 bar connections in USF4.
 
He's feeling pretty limited. :-/

I had to stop practicing and go to work but it's going to be weird adjusting to how he plays now. I'm basically going in blind after not paying attention til now. Figuring what combos into scissors.

Does c.mp link to scissors kick & what's the timing? I got that to work a few times but not reliably.
 
man I'm glad I'll have the beta to play when I get home but it's making this day just drag on.

Yeah, it does. Cr.mp is love, cr.mp is life. Timing isn't strict, I get it 100% of the time in training but drop it in lag sometimes.

edit: doesn't combo with the HK scissors, and in v-trigger MK doesn't combo either.
 
Can't wait to play some more Bison this weekend, I also want to try and learn some stuff with Birdie or something. I think overall though that I'm not going to play too much so that I don't pre-emptively burn myself out before launch.

I can't get my VX stick to work at all. Actually making me reconsidering getting this.

JoyToKey?
 
The beta is laggy when played against different countries. If it is same country, its smooth.

It's hard to beat a laggy Chun Li lol
 
I played quiet of few matches this morning.... Some matches were like it was a panel show... :\

PS: I am on a wired PS4 with Optimum with 50 down and 25 up.
 
I love how it only takes 2 or 3 mix ups to win in this game though. Feels so much faster than 4 where I had to claw my way to a win until ultra edition came out.
 
if i had known the beta was going to be up so much id of bought the chun-li fightstick i stold my old TE ps3 one knowing it probably wouldn't work on the ps4..... but instead i though i could hold out for the new TES+ and i SUCK at plaiyng on a pad omg my thumb hurts so much lol .... and my ass hurts too if you know what i mean ;(
