Survival mode is unbelievably shit. Please let me just buy the colors...

Can you imagine if this was their sinister plan to make people amenable to the idea of selling colors for actual money? Locking them behind a game mode SO BAD people would literally BEG Capcom to let them buy the colors.

Devious...

It's going to happen, I just hope they're purchasble with fight money and not zenny (real money)

I'm with you but I want the fight money from it... I'm banging my head against normal and I've only beaten it with 5.

For your own sanity don't even try Hard. Everyone turns into Shin variations of themselves after the first 20 stages.

I messed around with it a bit. I tried to cheese it with Rashid and I've tried with Cammy a couple of times but I'm hot garbage. It didn't go well.
 
Does anyone else have trouble trying to get windows 10 capture working with this game? unless I'm playing windowed my screen just flashes and the panel doesn't come up.

The panel doesn't show up in Fullscreen, but the screenflash means you started recording and the Windows 10 sound for unplugging something means you stopped.

Just use the keyboard shortcut: WindowsKey+Alt+R to start and stop recording.
 
I don't know what happened. I feel like the NBA players in Space Jam when the Monstars took their skills. I had 2000+ LP and all of the sudden I started losing everything. Losing to sub 1000 LP players, went all the way down to 1400 LP but struggling at 1600 now.
 
Only lie detected is "as popular".

Don't think he has been used much in SFV since they made SPD significantly slower to startup, which makes him instantly harder to use.
There are lots of ways to measure popularity at this ponit now. Right now he is probably the least popular grappler in SFV which means he isn't even competing with an Alpha character's second appearance and a brand new character. I don't think green hand or faster SPDs (especially when he has a neat air SPD now) would change his situation.
I never thought Gief and Sim's inclusion was about popularity, but more about diversity of playstyles.
Yeah, it's about both. Not that they're the only ones that can represent their archetypes. Something tells me few people would have freaked out about his absence with Mika and Laura in the game. Sim is definitely more specialized. Necro is the only other guy that could really replace him and that isn't happening.
It's both. There's also the part where they made Zangief into a purer grappler by removing Green Hand and the second Lariat, which would distort too much the other grapplers in the roster.

They clearly were biased towards SF2 characters too.
All of this is true. I don't get the need to make him a pure grappler in a game where characters like Ryu, Chun, Bison, Vega and Ken have evolved to play quite differently than they used to. If anything it seems like SFV favors hybrids and off the wall grapplers like Mika and Laura more. Can't wait for Alex. He should thrive in this environment if Capcom doesn't lobotomize him.
Besides....everybody loves gief

but they'll play T Hawk instead.
I'd rather fight Gief five times in a row than deal with T-Hawk once. Something about the guy is supremely offputting to me. Probably up there with Blanka and Rufus in terms of dislike.
Well then this is the one place I hope Capcom turns a deaf ear to the community...
I can't tell you how many times I've snuck a match of SFV in while my wife was still getting ready to go out...make up, hair, etc.

But if she had to sit around and wait for best 2 of 3 matches to go on date night? Well I'm sure I wouldn't need to worry about my LP, because I'd be dead.
My friend, 2/3 matches are not the issue here. You are playing the most dangerous game already.
the character lock has to be related to load times, right?
Yes, and I'm glad they went with this setup. Load times are bad enough as it is without procrastinators on character select.
Any update on an actual date for the update. I've beat all the story modes and easy survival with Ken and Karin but have no where else to go cause there is no Vs. CPU, no challenges yet, and I don't really play online.
There is nothing else to do.
I hope when DLC characters get revealed they show off the premium costume at the same time/ Also has PC pricing been decided for the UK, i'm assuming 3 pound each atm
Ditto

It'll soften the blow if their redesign sucks. I can tell you that a lot of people will be disappointed with Alex if his redesign makes him look stupid.

Fuck them if that is the case.
 
I PM'd on PSN regarding the Neogaf group about a week ago and never got a reply. Are you guys not using that anymore?
 
It took constantly telling myself to not keep pressing buttons all the time (a terrible habit of mine), practicing my anti-airs in preparation, and some pretty close matches against match-ups I personally fear (due to lack of experience), including meeting my first Sim in ranked, but I finally made it to ultra bronze.

It's a small victory, and now the difficulty will be in not falling back on my bad habits, and to not fall out of this league again. But it's a high point to end the day on.

I expect to get over confident and sink like a rock.
 
WTF capcom, cant create battle lounge, cant join others, found 1 casual match in 30 min... Europe here.

Two weeks after launch & things are not improving at all : (
 
My record so far in ranked

Still salty about that Dhalsim match smfh
 
What do you do against Chun's neutral jump hk? Impossible to get in on her with that.

edit: Wow, I might've just played an "Alt+Tab"er. Won the first round easily and suddenly it gets laggy af and he starts to get in
 
I'm very good at being mediocre, my Sim sits at 50% and my Karin at 53% :P I love that we can get these stats, it'll be interesting to see if these numbers go up or down in the future :x

BTW apparently Ryu wrecks me.
 
Oh man... I'm finishing up my Mika costume and I'm really really happy with it.

I need to do Nadeshiko so it'll probably be finished and posted tomorrow and I don't want to spoil the surprise but... ooof
 
My Necalli win rate is butt cheeks out of the 63 games played. 53%.

Worst match up? What I figured---Cammy. 25% win ratio.

That character is Blanka levels of bad to fight against in this game. Her jab needs to shove her full screen every time she does it. So annoying for her to jab out of everything walk jab pressure, into finally a throw, or I get shimmied.

Poongko is going to be so hard to stop.
 
Finally checked mine, I have a 50% win rate out of 111 matches. The 3 match ups that are killing my win rate is Bison, Ken, and Ryu. I'm a combined 7-22 against those 3. Bison is just a pain in the ass for Ryu. As for the shoto's, I'm finding myself for some reason to be pretty uncomfortable in that match up. But I've always felt that way to be honest. The fact that we're trying to do the same thing has always made these matches feel awkward. It doesn't help that I screw up my anti air a lot because these dudes like to jump a lot. Definitely need to work on those two because I feel like I'm letting those guys get away with too much.

Unless you're really good, their aren't too many free wins in this game. Since you can pick your opponent in SF4, it was easy to rack up a lot of wins against lower level players. That's why I was always around 65-70%. Much harder now since most of my opponents are around or above my skill level.
