Can anyone who has it early comment on how the load times compare to the beta?

 

[Cyber Caesar]

Well the story mode clips are enjoyable so far. I don't want to spoil myself too much but I think small supplements like this will help this game garner even more fans. I can't help it I'm just a sucker for this type of treatment. I've been with these characters for over twenty years. It's great to see Capcom do this in game. Bring on Cinematic Mode.

The one thing I hate about being part of PCMasterRace™ is that we can't go to a mom and pop shop and get early release. Have to wait on Steam to unlock. Apparently, this won't even be a midnight release on Steam, have to wait until 9am PST.

This is true. I hope they unlock it early, otherwise many have a 5+ day start on us

 

[cackhyena]

When does preload happen on Steam? Or did it already and I forgot it's been so long.

 

[piccio_ssl]

Try the PS3 function bro

I have the tekken 6 hori stick and it works

 

[Dinjoralo]

Man... When the heck are pre-loads happening? I need to get my downloading done now.

Capcom rep posted in one of these SF or Fighting Game threads and said preload is today Thurs 11th Feb at some point

Sometime today. Keep an eye out, there'll probably an announcement somewhere.

Here's the source on that.

 

[DaSorcerer7]

US PSN.

And the copies that are being sold are Region 2.

In the long run, it'll be cheaper for me to stick with pricing in U.S Dollars than in British Pounds.

Ok, I see.

 

[cackhyena]

Thanks, guys.

By completing each Character Story, you’ll be able to unlock their corresponding Story Mode costume for purchase in the in-game store, once it launches in March.

Oof - even the store won't be there for launch? That's kind of a bummer.

 

[NoctisVsStar]

Ily man that's great news I just bought a cheap stick on Amazon and it arrives today I was super worried. I assume you gotta leave your DS4 connected if so no biggie! One last thing no input lag from what you can tell?

 

[Alchemist]

Do they call

her Maya?

Spoiler

No, she's narrating the story. Spying on Shadaloo Base.

 

[mollipen]

Hopefully someone tries out the PS3 arcade stick function

It works. Perfectly fine from what I tried, but admittedly I didn't try it for long.

 

[KingBroly]

So...how long is each character's story" anyway? 8 fights?

 

[Raitaro]

Ordered from Simply! Hopefully they'll still dispatch today or tomorrow.

I should have done this as well instead of going with Amazon.co.uk as they NEVER seem to break the street date for any game...sigh...

Now watch it not get here on the 16th despite their promise...

Edit: assuming I can still cancel my Amazon order, is it likely that Simplygames could still send me the game early as well? Anyone have any experience with them on such things?

 

[Floex]

Found this on Capcom Unity, pretty much the layout for the year.

 

[J-Skee]

No lobbies is fucking terrible for a casual like myself. Lobbies is where I spend about 75% of my time.

I am still getting day one, but I'm pretty bummed.

Two player lobbies will be there at launch, with 8 person lobbies plus Spectator Mode will be available in the March 2016 update. Source: http://www.capcom-unity.com/street_...character-story-costumes-and-new-mode-details

 

[Lulubop]

I'm not sure if I'm late with this, I just woke up.

I like it. A lot.

 

[Mesoian]

So...how long is each character's story" anyway? 8 fights?

Looks like between 3 and 5

Found this on Capcom Unity, pretty much the layout for the year.

Uff. Challenges, trials and decent lobby support not at launch?

Well, here's hoping the March update is an EARLY march update....

Awesome! Well that purchase making me look smart XD thanks for clarifying that Shi!

 

[SplitYourInfinities]

I can feel the hype.

When is the review embargo up?

 

[piccio_ssl]

Ily man that's great news I just bought a cheap stick on Amazon and it arrives today I was super worried. I assume you gotta leave your DS4 connected if so no biggie! One last thing no input lag from what you can tell?

Yes, the DS4 must be turned on
Regarding the input lag, better ask to someone else xD

Been playing SFIV but it doesn't scratch the itch, QQ. Screw it, playing Soul Caliber 2.

 

[Cyber Caesar]

Dat FANG voice actor is fantastic. I'm tickled. Now I spread the good word about your efforts Capcom...

[Alchemist]

Found this on Capcom Unity, pretty much the layout for the year.

One character per month (with the exception of June) confirmed.

 

[Already Torn]

Joke post or not? Either way it made me laugh.

Ono said so!

 

[Raitaro]

Thanks! Handy to have this overview.

Some random thoughts:
- Seems like there is a version of the New York stage with things burning, so either that is variant or a transition of sorts (or a story mode exclusive version);
- Trials/Challenges will be focusing on doing complex combos again it seems (unfortunately for me, as I suck at them);
- The screenshot with Fang and Bison might show an unknown stage(?);
- The timeline does not show any additional DLC like stages or costumes so it remains unclear if they will be added to the shop in 2016.

June = Juni surprise?

Wow, that is pretty. Thanks!

Nah the order is decided already

Do you have to authenticate it every 8 minutes or something?

 

[Alchemist]

August is my guess, I think they're going to release them in silhouette order.

What's interesting about the way story mode is set up is you get side stories when other characters make cameos, similar to MK. The quality of the voice work is very high quality. Damn good job guys.

 

[lucebuce12]

I'd like to know as well. Can anyone comment on this?

EDIT: Btw, has anybody downloaded the day-1 patch? Or has it not been released yet?
