Street Fighter V |OT2| Another Fight Isn't Coming Your Way!

The thing with Wi-Fi in SFV specifically is that it's gonna look fine on your end most of the time, it's your opponents who'll have to deal with a teleporting mess
I'll bear it in mind, thanks. Once I'm up and running maybe I'll try a set with someone here and they can let me know what it's like. However I haven't played much SF in a long time and I'll be getting used to a stick as well so it'll probably be a while before I dare to venture online.
 
I'm starting to believe that the lag issues with wi-fi connections are an issue with SFV and not necessary a "it's your internet" issue. Realistically a video game shouldn't have that many issues over a solid wireless connection like that.

wi-fi was always shit in every fighting game i've played. don't pollute the evironment, go wired!
 
Hotdamn they start even earlier with ragequitting now, a silver Birdie just rq'ed mid second round. He doesn't even block and silver rank? Ugh.
 
My main two are:
s.mp -> s.mk xx lp spinning mixer (qcf) or lk eagle spike (qcb)
c.hp -> s.mp xx mp or EX eagle spike (if EX, juggle with mp or hp spinning mixer)
(-> means link, xx means cancel)

The first one is important because s.mp -> s.mk is a frame trap since s.mp is +2.
The second one is important because c.hp is a good meaty, and does quite a bit of damage with EX.

EDIT - and for fun, corner crush counter combo!

s.hp xx EX tornado projectile xx roll -> c.fp -> s.mp xx whatever

Thanks, I'll try those out!

The 's' and 'c' mean standing and crouching respectively, right? I remember there being a link to a fighting game acronym resource somehwere as well but for the life of me can't find it. I thought it was either in the OP of here or the Fighting game noob thread.
 
I am curious what, if anything, Capcom will say today.

If they communicate effectively with their community then this game will be a great "home" for players.

If they pull a Bungie though? Shit...

Yes:
s. - standing
c. - crouching
j. - jump
nj. - neutral jump

Are they supposed to say anything today?

As of right now, Capcom has been pretty mum on what they're doing...if anything about the game's plethora of issues.

Ono promised an update 'within [the] next few days' on the 24th:
We'll be announcing information about SFV's next patch within next few days.I am terribly sorry, but please wait momentarily.

You'd think the 'next few days' would be less than a week, but who knows.

I love the guy, but it's been known for a while now that...

were people really expecting content within the 1st week of the month? Cause I've always had the thought of it coming mid month at the earliest, per dlc content.

That's the thing : nobody has any clue and we are all left to speculate. A statement on their part would be much appreciated, regardless of when they actually plan to release that update.

They teased Alex by showing his boots with that JP launch trailer. I'd love to see a hype video of his fighting style in SFV prior to the DLC launch later in the month.

They never said anything, so I expected the end of the month because I perceive them to be incompetent (this is not just them, either).

I think it'd be in their best interest to get whatever content they can out as fast as they because of all of the 'lack of content/tutorial' complaints the game has. Providing it as this big glut in the latter half of the month isn't going to help them. They need something now, in 2 weeks, and then in another 2 weeks. Why? Keep people coming back in addition to give newer players something else as a nugget to buy their game, little by little. In one big glut, you lose a lot in marketing translation.
 
Someone on SRK reported that it "looked like" a player RQ on them (long pause at the KO) but then the match finished and they got their points...

...anti-RQ tech being implemented or just lag?
 
Charlie's Stun and Stamina is 950? Capcom please. This character is bad enough when cornered with V-Reversal being able to be tech'd.
Fuck you R.Mika

i reported the same occurrence here yesterday. it was in casual and it looked pretty nice. i doubt it's a fix ;)
 
Is every Karin's tactic "Hit with special cancel into a super that does a shit ton of damage"? Any single tap just seems to lead into a bunch of pain... god I hate it.

I'm not a huge fan of Karin's EX attacks so I end up building meter.
Then all of a sudden while I'm mashing out attacks I go into THE FINAL ATTACK OH HOHOHOHO

What do you want, I'm a scrub.

Yup. Her confirm into super is really easy and the damage is really good. Her EX moves for the most part are kinda bad/useless, so it's better just to save the meter for super.

That's the rub though.... All her specials are way easy to see coming, super unsafe, and punishable big time.

If you out footsie her and stuff any desperation specials she throws at you... You win.

It's partly why I stopped playing her. She doesn't have enough health/stamina to make any mistakes...

Getting hit with her HK and then she cancels into V-Trigger really hurts.

Also saw something that made me go "Wut... Why??????" When I saw a Ken doing that YOLO running kick. The V-Skill run and cancel into a kick. Apparently he can hit you out of the air with that and if he does he can juggle into his SRK. I don't think the character needed the run at all, it doesn't differentiate him from Ryu, it just gives him a gimmick. That's all his V-Skill is, it's just a gimmick. But come on, he can catch you out of the air with that and combo into his SRK for about 25% life? Come on. That's just dumb.
 
Cammy players have been the most random for me.

Cammy is like my ultimate rival online.

I think I just managed to beat her once, because she wasn't doing much, basically.

All the other time were me being beaten to the ground, Cammy running with my LPs. :(
 
Just had the laggiest match ever in this game. Yeesh.

I have been hearing a lot of complaints today about this game's online netcode being choppy on streams.

How's GAF holding up?
 
I've not expecting any news today, and I'm not expecting the update to hit until at lwast a month after release date.

Sure would be nice though.
