Wow...... that's wow

We have grinding in a fighting game.
I discovered the wonder of "grinding" through a fighting game last year via Guilty Gear Xrd's M.O.M. mode.
But at least that had an element of RPG-like customization, unlockables and power-ups in play... whereas this seems like straight tedium by comparison.

The alternative is buying the Season Pass, which gives you the Colors.
 
Yeah for sure its going to lose a lot of sales on PC due to those steam reviews. People going to read it and think that this is another MK and avoid it. First impression is huge in gaming industry. Oh well....
 
is this SF noob friendly?

It's the most noob friendly SF is going to be for a long long time, if you wanna get in now is the time. That said the game is barebones and currently not even working correctly. If you're looking toward single player content there is like none yet.

the MK that sold 500k? that MK?
 
Makes you wonder why they even bothered to move up the Steam release if they knew the servers were going to go to shit for several hours.

There is no way in hell they didn't expect this. They knew the servers were going to get slammed. And I guarantee you that they are just sitting there with their thumbs up their ass and waiting for the horde to settle down. They did nothing to prepare this and that blows my mind.
 
2 hours later I finally had my first Ranked matcha I had the win secured and then the other guy pulled the plug. :(

Need to play more and join a scrub training group if it exists.

The game hasn't even been out for 3 hours...

Those knee jerk reaction reviews won't stay unless this shit stays like this for a while.
 
What console is the hitbox made to play on?

PS3 and X360.

Anyways, if anyone has a Hitbox too, make sure to go in to settings (on Joy2Key) and pick it there. Apparently everyone had their hardware automatically pick up, but Hitbox didn't.

I got it working now. Works so well.
 
Anybody have any good fightpad recommendations? Not sure if it's me or my stick but it doesn't read diagonals if I input too fast. I'm so used to pad already anyway that I might as well as go all the way.
 
Had to drop res to 1440p at max settings.
When set to 4k in game matches lock down to a completely steady 30fps for some reason.

Anyone else with this issue at 4k?
Using a 980ti.

Yeah I' see more negative steam reviews than the positive ones.
"Great game, i give it a 2001D ou of 2001D" lulz
 
yeah they were rushed and it shows. badly. They collected data for 3 betas and didnt learn anything. Its over for them I think they need to pack it up. Also makes me sad to see that with bad sales now due to this, this may be the end of SF saga for another 10 years. First impression is everything in this industry and they failed at that. GL to capcom they are going to need it.

lol
 
Dude I think I played like six matches online and I got so destroyed. It's not even funny.

I can get maybe like 25% of their meter down before I'm dead. I use Ryu and I try not to abuse hadoukens and whatever...think I need to focus on my defense game

Learning how and when to block is a lot more important than knowing how to do combos, definitely a good idea to practice that!
 
Just fired this up. Can't connect to game server, and I can't select anything but the default outfit for Chun, even though the preorder outfit is installed according to Steam.

Are the outfits based on being able to be online?
 
Actually got into a lobby vs a StriderHiryu1. In the lobby, his gametag was Dmoneybag, though, and was from Canada?

As my CA was landing for the kill in second round, disconnected. No idea if it was server or him.

Sadface, time for bed.
 
Are you sure it includes the colors of the original cast? The description says it only includes the 6 dlc characters a 1 premium costume for those characters.

I've had like...40-50 people tell me that the Season Pass unlocks the Colors for the original cast. That's on top of everyone in twitch chats spamming that it's the case.
 
Wonky servers aside, I'm having fun! Also, even when disconnecting mid story mission, I just went back and it gave me the missing FM.

They moved it up to have the game launch at midnight like all there other version.

As for the other thing, they probably aren't going to do much out of tweaks when it comes to creating a solution for what will end up being a few days worth of extra traffic and not needed afterwards. If the issue persists for some reason then they would probably need to upgrade their servers or something. This is going off whjat I've seen from other launches so we'll see lol.
 
Yep.
Those reviews stay unless the author deletes them, and most of them aren't going to bother re-writing them, even after things improve.

They won't be the majority is what I mean. Most people aren't awake posting steam reviews at 3am. The reviews will average out over time unless the PC version is completely broken and never gets fixed.
 
choosing your region shouldnt affect who youre matched against right?

in creating the ID thing I mean
 
Hell is a 100 levels.

the different survival modes being titled easy, medium, hard and hell doesn't have anything to do with the default level 1 difficulty. It's simply that it's "harder" because there's more levels that you need to complete

Ugh sounds like a bore, saw pr_balrog play and the cpu was braindead. 100 matches of that is a snoozefest. I thought it would be a challenge of skill not attrition.

Depends. If you mean the colours, you have to complete survival mode to unlock them (10 matches of easy to get colour 3, 30 matches of normal for colours 4, 5 and 6 then 50 matches of hard for colours 7, 8, 9 and 10)
If you mean the premium outfits... I have no idea :o

I hear some people say you don't have to be online to get the outfit unlocks, but you'll miss out on any fight money rewards you would have also gotten.
