Survival really needs to give you some health back like every survival mode in existence. Also the buffs need to ramp up if you don't use any. The RNG buffs and health are stupid as fuck
 
Considering you get 10k FM per character story to go towards unlocking a 40k Story Costume...

How does 5-10k per Costume Color sound?

100-200 online wins for one color of one costume for one character?

Hmm, interesting. Never even considered that. I only use the wingless so far on Nash since that is pretty damn sweet in shutting down his flash kick thing.

You use the wingless airplane move against Nash's jaguar kick/moonsault thing? What's the timing on that? light, med, heavy or EX wingless airplane?
 
Ryu is so fun to play with when you learn his strengths.
I've been having a good night! If you fight me say what's up! I'm YoungGoYard on SF.
 
I swear I have only faced other Sim mains just a handful of times. Even if he's super good, he's not very popular, so I feel a bit better about maining a potentially OP character :P

I only use light since it's the fastest and wouldn't want to waste meter on it. You should be able to use it on reaction. Just do it as soon as you see the animation of him about to launch in the air.

I'm just afraid I'm too slow to use it on reaction. I'll try just that. How about normals? Does any normals hit Nash out of his moonsault/jaguar kick? Does cr.mp work?
 
I really wouldn't try it when Nash actually activates the kick. At best you will probably trade, and you will lose on the life exchange. Wingless allows you to grab him before he even gets the kick out.
 
Something like 1 win in 15 games, less then 80 lp and still matched against 400+ lp players.

What a fucking incompetent matchmaking system.
 
Decided to try out Laura cause I'm kind of sick of Cammy and I'm noticing that grabs, or particularly Nash's grabs, beat her light punch. I thought light punches were faster than grabs?
 
Might I recommend...

SURVIVAL MODE

*a steel cage surrounds your immediate computer area*

My credit card will be ready.

Seriously though, what the fuck is Capcom thinkng? They've been doing alright lately but I have a feeling they want to go back to 2011 Capcom. Instead of having on-disc DLC they'll have DLC be gated by a currency that takes forever to grind, make every aesthetic aspect of the game DLC (purchase EACH color for each costume of one character, assuming they go this route), and probably some other F2P bullshit elements.

I hope they consider changing some aspects, like the balance of FM online vs offline modes, because the core game elements are so good, I'm having a blast learning the game, and playing online. I'd hate Capcom to stop making SF or any fighting game because of this BS going on during this launch period affecting their sales (lack of content, content already present is lackluster, etc).

I know it does match people out of their league and has issues but in this case, I don't think so. 400 LP you can get in about 5-7 wins, depending on who you face, so it's actually not too far off. You still are rookie until you hit 500 iirc.

edit: Just keep trying and try to play more "safe". You can beat the lower level players in this manner because they do a lot of things that open themselves up.
 
I am not looking forward to the day that I have every other achievement and finally have to try Hell mode. It's going to be painful.

Had an alright day on Ranked today, pretty much broke even and still in the low Silver level. Fought my first Gold ranked player. I saw 14 wins in a row and I thought, "uh oh, I'm sure that streak is real!". The streak was real. Dear God, the streak was real. That Ken pressure.

Surprisingly, only one "real" dropper.

Fight me!
You'll probably win.

Played against a friend yesterday who has the game on PC and we were both surprised how little (if at all) it lagged. The only noticeable lags were during the fighter intros. In the actual fights we noticed no lag at all.

I don't think ANYONE likes how Survival Mode is right now. It's torture. Unfun. Boring, then it cheats you.

I'll add ya! I'm Sneakers on CFN. Feel free to ask for any advice on here. Everyone has been helpful.

matchmaking has been a total joke since the betas

pick 5 - > get teleportation match
100 LP? -> against daigo
2000LP? -> against someone who just turned on the game
PS4 only? -> against 3 PC players in a row

etc etc

I've seen every scenario and it's utter garbage and tbh I don't think they understand the issue or have the skills to fix it.
 
Hey mate, send me a friend request. Im at work now but will be playing tonight.

I play as Bison, with about 1100LP at the moment.

Im in Adelaide and need some better connection matches against some non-Ryus and Kens!

Just sent you a friend request on PSN then. I am up for some games whenever you are!

no lie, every sim I've faced has destroyed me. And by every I mean all two of them lol. So stick with it, not a lot of people know what to do against him and some of his cross up shit is insane.

I seriously wish I recorded the one I faced that had ~20 wins in a row, you'd think he was a rage quitter until you see him play :|
 
As a beginner player, would it be smart for me to just block on my opponents wake up when all they do is shoryu or do I have another option? I play Cammy btw and this seems to get me a lot because I try to do stuff on their wakeup

Eh, 500 LP higher or lower isn't very indicative of a skill gap IMO.

Problem is that at the lowest levels, you're still going to occasionally run into new guys who are good but just haven't built up any LP of their own yet. They'll filter out in time.

The thing about blocking is you put yourself at risk. They could grab you instead of DPing.

It's better to do a quick backdash right as they wake up. Then the DP whiffs, and you still get your punish. If they don't DP, you just reset to the neutral. Lower risk, same reward.
 
Hmmm...having you be a little bruised up during battle would have been awesome. Capcom what was the thinking behind this release? Soooooo much cool stuff should be in this game.

Man, next year this launch better be a blip. I want a 3-4 million player base Capcom, get it together!
 
I have no idea how to play Laura and but I think I've been playing better with her than Cammy, and Cammy's my best character (though I'm better at getting destroyed with her than actually doing anything lately).

Laura is not easy to play with against good players so God speed. But if you're good with her then stick with it. I like to experiment with everyone. You never know who will click with you.
