kinda sucks that there's no Sakura.

Spoiler

She shows up in a story mode graphic...

I'd be surprised if we never see her.

 

[lucebuce12]

Gotcha. Those are all grabs.

Look under Unique attacks.

Also check here if you can't find it.

EDIT:
I don't think cr.lk xx cr.lp is a target combo as it's not on the list. Maybe just a regular combo?

I'm sure they will Shou her off at some point

 

[PadWarrior]

Yup.

Practice, practice and then a little bit more practice. Your brain and your hands need to be in perfect sync to successfully be pulling off hit confirms.

And yes, random blocking can help for some offline practice but real matches with real people are the best way to go for that specific thing IMO.

Thanks dudes!

 

[jett]

HardRojo, let me look you up and send you an invite, hopefully it'll work.

I fought a hard battle to join your lounge. But in the end, I failed.

This fucking game!

 

[Omnistalgic]

How do you rebuild the database on PS4 guys?

 

[Ray Down]

No way she not part of season 2, especially after appearing in Karin story.

Plus Capcom will make a good amount of money on costumes for her.

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

.

Also get on CFN and we'll do some training ;]

Oh boy, at least I could find you on CFN.

Boot up on safe mode (hold the button till it beeps twice) and then select it from the menu that'll pop up when the console is on.

gamesradar just published an article on sfv's perceived lack of content.

Personally I have been coping with the slow matchmaking by leaving ranked and casual fight request on, and messing with training and survival modes.

I am assuming fight request is no different than the dedicated search screen in terms of chances of fighting a game.

It seems random from reports. It was taking 3-4 minutes last night when I left both on when in training mode. But a minute or so by just doing the dedicated search in either casual or ranked.

 

[LiK]

I think she's almost guaranteed to show up in future seasons.

that's good. i will gladly trade one of the new characters for her.

 

[RedAssedApe]

There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it. I've got friends where the game works perfectly for so its just my bad luck. Unfortunately nothing on my end can fix this (I spent all day yesterday trying to no avail, and even after today's tweaks I can't get matches regularly) so I'm at a loss on what to do. Which is a pity, as I absolutely love the game when I play it, I already love it way more than 4, but on 4 I could always get matches within a minute of searching (if that)...

same here. after the day 1 maintenance things have pretty much been gravy with a few minor hiccups where they took the servers down to apply more fixes. i'm not sure why some people are still having problems. maybe its the matchmaking if its region based and they don't have a lot of players?

things could be far worse like with beta 1.

 

[Dremark]

remember the good ol' days in the arcades that when you lost, you lost.

People rarely were fast enough to unplug the machines when they lost back then.

Oh, the combo I listed isn't a target combo no. That's just the one I'm practicing currently. And thanks for the link, didn't know about that one. Very useful.

That first one sounds like a link and not a chain, which means you have to execute cr LP right when the frames for cr LK end, so it comes out even with the hitstun and thus links and combos. So don't mash it, tap it in rhythm

Though light attacks are generally more lenient links.

Man, it's really not clicking with me. :/

Also get on CFN and we'll do some training ;]

I'm online now. Just invite ahead.

 

[TheRed]

What's the best way to get in on Dhalsim with Ryu ? I always have trouble against those players.
Dhalsim I seems crazy good.
When I win against him it feels the hardest.

 

[HardRojo]

Ultra Bronze right now, I'm guessing Silver comes at 2k LP? Man how the hell am I supposed to get that Gold league trophy? Shit's gonna be tough as fuck.

 

[Farewell]

Is there a way to activate stage themes in online matches? Cant find anything in the options, hope training and the menu isnt the only way to listen to actual BG Music..

 

[Orcastar]

Just spent one hour sitting in the main menu with fight requests turned on and all options set to any.

Got into a grand total of two ranked matches and one casual match.

So yeah.

Spoiler

At least I won all of them.

 

[Hagi]

I'm maining Charlie Nash.

That's cool I haven't run into any Nash yet but he looks like he'd be a bother with his teleports and stuff. We should get some matches in sometime, you can see my basic Karin lol

 

[lucebuce12]

Sadly, there's no option. Hopefully they'll add one in the future.

I might just kill myself if I have to listen to Ryu's theme one more time.

 

[Alchemist]

Taking the time to learn charge because I really like Chun-Li in this game and man.. I don't know how anyone can say they're easier than motion characters.

Some people might find them easier, like me. Though I would never claim that is universally true.

 

[Pachimari]

Reizo Ryuu, check your PM.

 

[Csr]

Compared to mkx the stages in this are mostly pure trash. The npcs in the background look like they run at 10fps on some stages, they mind as well not be there. I hope they touch these up at some point.

Compared to most recent fg's the stages in sfv are very bad from the washed out colors to the ugly, low frame rate, goofy npc's and the boring enviroments. I love the character models though (besides ken's hair and face).

 

[ShadowKhaN]

ill be the first to say it, the netcode is ass.

 

[Makoto-Yuki]

so i decided to just buy the game. i was kinda put off by all the negative reviews but just went for anyway. i'm glad i got it because i'm having so much fun with it. i can see myself putting so many hours into this. so far i've only just played the survival mode. yet to play online so can't speak for that.

game runs solid for me. the 60fps is so nice. might even buy it on PS4 to play as well when not at my pc.

 

[pixelish]

does anyone else here lose focus whenever you play against rashid and RASHIIIDOOOO comes on? i often have a slight giggle when the chorus happens.

 

[Syntsui]

ill be the first to say it, the netcode is ass.

Where are you from?

 

[Trickster]

ill be the first to say it, the netcode is ass.

During fights? There's it's been damn great for me. Between fights? "let me just take a nap"

 

[mnz]

The first to be wrong!

 

[lucebuce12]

The matchmaking is kinda shit. Netcode however, is not.

The problem is that when it works, it works beautifully. When it doesn't it sucks horribly.

 

[Hagi]

not the first

definitely not the first lol

Execution feels a lot tighter.

st.MP>cr.MK>Spinning Bird Kick consistently is going to take some practice.

 

[StewboaT_]

I'm having great fun with him. His only downfall is that he doesn't do THAT much damage. He floats like a butterfly and stings like a butterfly.

What options do I have after light and ex spinning mixer? Are they completely safe? Felt that way. (options against rashido obs.)

 

[T.O.P]

Still takes too long to find matches for me ugh

Beta 3-4 were so damn fast that i couldn't even touch the dummy once and i was getting matched already

 

[mbpm1]

Story of SFV tbh

 

[TheRed]

I'm still horrible against Nash I can never hit the guy jumping all over the place. Maybe I need to input shoryuken faster because when I try I'm already getting hit.

 

[lucebuce12]

st.MP>cr.MK>Spinning Bird Kick consistently is going to take some practice.

What you just listed is actually one of the hardest combos in the game quite frankly. I remember even Floe was having difficulty pulling it off consistently in training mode.

 

[ShadowKhaN]

I feel its a problem with the netcode combined with the game running like shit on ps4.

Even smooth connections look slightly jittery at all times. Add to it the fact that the backgrounds are 30fps and the game just does not look smooth at all.

 

[mbpm1]

If you're talking about the Moonsault thing, you can try other anti-airs like cr. hp

 

[Ray Down]

I'm still horrible against Nash.

Same here, my brother always kicks my ass when ever he plays as him

 

[Marvel]

I struggle with Nash also, he's scary.

 

[Zombegoast]

I really hate how draw games are done since SF3. If it's in the 3rd round then everyone wins. Fuck that!

 

[Xeteh]

Execution feels a lot tighter.

st.MP>cr.MK>Spinning Bird Kick consistently is going to take some practice.

Its a real shame the challenges aren't in the game right now, I made myself bang my head against Chun-Li's challenges for a while and actually got pretty comfortable with charges because of it. You'll get the hang of it.

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

Yeah don't do this, it's stupid hard, your buffer has to be perfect.

 

[Simo]

Dude is crazy. Super fun to use though. I was doing much better in ranked when I switched over to him and his teleport people forget about and get confused. lol

I've really gotta put in some training with the fight stick this weekend. It's a lot harder than I thought getting used to it especially the button placements. lol

 

[CrackpotDesert]

I struggle with Nash also, he's scary.

LK MK > LP MP > EX Tragedy Assault > d+VTrigger > jHK > EX Sonic Scythe

 

[Alchemist]

Ha, this makes me feel a little less bad now.

Its a real shame the challenges aren't in the game right now, I made myself bang my head against Chun-Li's challenges for a while and actually got pretty comfortable with charges because of it. You'll get the hang of it.

I'm definitely going to keep at it.

 

[Demoli]

How do i make my sony stick work with x360ce? I've done to keybinds but i can't get sf5 to recognize it still
