The "casual" mode in SF5 is meant to just be a quick match with no ranking points on the line and no frills.

If you want in depth rematch options, that's what Battle Lounge is for. The "first to" option is godlike.

Yeah, it works for that. If you want to gain FM while you do it, and you come across a good player you wanna keep playing...or get that runback, it should be an option.
 
I understand quitting out of laggy matches, but honestly, if you can't deal with them, maybe just step away from the controller and let the other guy win. I know it sucks to lose points like this to bad connections, but what if their implementation of punishment to ragequitters retroactivelly punishes disconnects? They won't make distinctions, you'll get fucked with the real ragequitters.
 
Hmmmm guys, would Ken or Ryu be broken with a fake Hadouken special? Thought this would be the game where one of them got it back.

Oh and btw, is this be best GAF thread of all time?!!! Nothing but wonderful joy and hilarious mess in here, golden I say!

I think this one would work great for that, considering so many characters have anti fb options. Also, where's my donkey kick?

That would be exploited so hard for fight money though.


How? It's random opponents, isn't it? I've only played it a few times, so I'm not sure.
 
On laggy matches to bad to attempt to play, I just let the other guy win. I don't give a crap, haha. I'm just walk forward while I browse on my phone. Sometimes they taunt cause they think I am fucking with them maybe. I thought it was an accepted thing. I've been in laggy sf4 matches and other has just walked forward as well. Whoever starts doing it first, the other guy just kills him.

losing points will make everyone stop quitting lol...I will say once you reach gold, and get closer to trophy completion, points matter much less. I mean for me it does anyway. When you start fighting players like Pix, or Moradin and every match is a battle for survival, it can be a bit stressful. I'm about to turn on rank/casual and just play now, don't really care about lp just want to get 1 million fight money!!!!
 
Sometimes I still play in teleport matches. It's like a mini-game, like tekken ball or something, and almost as unrelated.

yea in other games I would say it might have been too good. But I thought it fit perfectly in this one, especially ken since hes all about mixup and Rushdown. A fake out Hadouken and then he rushed in with run fits the character so well. As does the parry for Ryu. Dunno, maybe in practice it was too good. I know you would get a lot of jumpers.
 
People should always be getting points and feeling like they're progressing not feeling like they lost every thing they just earned when they lose a couple matches or have some scrubby Ryu beat them.

I don't really care about your self-exposé, but I feel like that particular quote is indicative of a misunderstanding of a couple things:

1. What are points supposed to indicate if not skill? Your dreams and aspirations?
2. If some scrubby Ryu beat you, then you aren't as good as you'd like to believe...which fits right into the profile of a rage quitter: fraudulent.

I will say that once they address rage quits, they should make it a lot harder to drop in rank (like, you have to lose a lot, which proves that you aren't ready yet). It shouldn't be impossible to drop, because otherwise legit players will be matched with frauds on the regular. But it should be a lot harder to drop in rank than to raise, imo.

Yeah but I have faith that people would find a way to exploit fight money if you let them get it for rematches. Rematch should for sure be an option, but no fight money involved.

I agree.

Why would you be continuously getting LP if your skill is not likewise increasing? That's what EXP is for, get a ton of levels of a meaningless number as you like and keep training.
 
I tried buying some of those Powerline adapters to lower my ping, turns out they only upped my ping and gave me slower speeds. Funny, they worked great in my last apartment. The wiring must be old or shoddy in this place.

My solution was to set up two AC 5GHz routers and make a wireless bridge. According to SpeedTest.net, my ping is 10.

10 is perfectly acceptable for Street Fighter, is it not? I mean, it's factually the best I can do without moving.
 
They need to add search by region to Lounges. Last 3 people who've joined were England, France, and Saudi Arabia....and I believe it based on the bars.

England can work fine w/me (east coast US), sometimes France, but come on..

Packet loss is the issue, normally, not ping.
 
My FANG is getting destroyed online

Even against the scrubbiest shoto player it still takes all my patience to not make a single bad move and lose 50% of my hp :(

I don't even know what all the flags I'm seeing are.

Good ol' Capcom, encouraging geography lessons

I'm waiting until more tech is discovered to venture into the online pastures with Fang. He's fun as hell but you need to be a godly mind reader to play properly.
 
I'm having a hard time playing charge characters with a ds4. I'm waiting on getting a stick for my ps4. How are people playing charge chars with a ds4? Any tips

Fight money should always be handed out when playing the game. The whole point of it is for people to keep playing the game. If people want to exploit it by sitting in a game and beating up an afk player than that's on them. Sounds boring as fuck to me.

Everyone loses to a scrubby run-away Ryu from time to time. It's the same reason Ghandi beat a decent player in a tournament even though he never really played SF before.

And it's easy for everyone to gang up on someone who made a couple mistakes, which I don't feel good about doing. I'm not trying to justify myself, I did what I did. We all make mistakes and I think overall maybe minus 100 LP I deserve to be where I'm at at the moment. I'm a decent player who RQed a few times (mainly because of excessive lag). Really not much more to it.
 
Feel bad for folks who care about LP and the rest of those pointless stats.

Personally I'm still waiting for an option to be able to turn that stuff off in menus so I never have to see it.

My guess is you're getting some down forward inputs on your back/forward specials. In SFV the input leniency does not allow for down forward as a valid input on a back/forward charge special. So when practicing you will want to try and be a little more deliberate on hitting directly forward when doing stuff like scissor kicks on Bison. Doesn't apply to down/up specials, any variation of up is considered valid input to activate.

the good ol' days at the arcade where the only thing you lost were some quarters/tokens.

I wanna say FSP wasn't decent but I'd feel bad because he's actually a Gaffer.

...

Fuck it, he wasn't decent at that time. He had external factors to that play too

Not at all, imo. You can fill the screen with poison. Poisoned opponents usually react like bugs when you spray them, so as long as you know how to defend and what is punishable, you're golden. I guess that's the key: you have to know how to play lame/defense. He even does some solid damage if you build meter, and if you're playing him right you should have meter every round. He can confirm into super as easily as anybody in the game.

I played a few matches with a fairly high rank Japanese Ryu in Battle Lounge. It was a teleporting mess unfortunately, but I still saw some awesome things I didn't know were possible. Also, credit to him for not dropping any combos while the screen was constantly teleporting. My Ryu is now leveled up, so I hope to match up with some Birdie/Mika players next.

I'm not ganging up on you, just pointing out the flaws in your mental approach here. Losing to a scrubby run-away Ryu doesn't invalidate the loss or make it any less legit. You need to take that L and every L to come and compress it, learn from it, let it motivate you. If you are only counting "legit losses" by your own metrics, you will not only hit a developmental wall as a player, but you'll also end up really angry, either way you'd be your own worst enemy.

Yeah, I think some inputs get messed up because it's all so tight together. I can get it in training mode pretty consistently it's just when I'm in a match i mess up. Guess it will come with some more practice
 
And a Necalli with a 10 win streak

It means i'm getting the hang of Fang i guess :)
 
"Did you know? This flag is from Singapore."

I just don't like that the dot on the map representing me or whatever is on the West Coast... With West Coast time displayed...

Come on game, I'm in New Orleans, get it right... :P

it's probably showing the server...
