Got my Hori Arcade stick. A nice in-between size from a TE and a that regular madcatz stick. Buttons feel different and the stick feels okay. Cool cord hiding panel too.

What are the names of some top Xrd May and Ram players? Tried searching for high-level matches on YT, but they didn't return anything worthwhile.

 

[ArjanN]

Ever since ArcSys started releasing on PC, they've been getting closer to releasing them current with the consoles with each game, it seems (except for Battle Fantasia out of nowhere). Eventually they've gotta get it on time, right?

I'm guessing it probably won't be that long after the console release, could easily see it be somewhere late 2016.

So having to think about blocking high/low practically doubles the time it takes to react. There is also some difference between the human benchmark site and that "traffic" test. It might be because of how often it polls for input or the way it measures the time difference. Or it could be that the stimuli vary between the two. Either way, it's probably easier to just practice defensive OSes or getting a read on the opponent.

Does anyone else have a spare SFV Steam beta code? Really wanna see if I can find someone I enjoy playing this time :T

 

[Karsticles]

This is the difference removing 3 frames of recovery on a move can make:

So then I react to overheads in like 700 ms? Damn, no wonder I get hit by Rolento's smack all the time

Also saw A New Hope finally, it wasn't bad. On to Empire tomorrow.

Thank God for Q though...

Going to pick it back up seriously soon. Any list of zard changes?

The biggest thing you'll notice is that you can combo off of Dthrow now, and Uthrow kills at ~120%.

Same, and I want to test out the differences between console and PC netcode wise.

Robin also got some hitbox size increases this patch on f-tilt, neutral air, forward air, and down air. Also landing lag reduction on all aerials by 2 frames.

Is the beta down? Having trouble connecting.

Matchmaking is almost entirely broken. Enjoy your training mode time.

 

[Cindi Mayweather]

Why isn't Chun available for me yet in the beta?

 

[Tripon]

I'm worried that it's still an issue by the 3rd beta. This game is supposed to be out in 2 months. I don't think that's enough time to make sure Matchmaking is working like its supposed to.

 

[Cindi Mayweather]

Really disappointed I can't try out a poker like Vega tonight. Nash's walk speed, Jesus Christ it's slow.

 

[Tripon]

lol, got exposed by Karsticles in the SFV beta.

get rekt

i really wish this beta had lobbies

and working online

edit:

And Bison.
And FANG.
And Dhalsim.

seriously. why even keep the game around at that point. just delete it capcom

Nash is dope.

 

[SolarPowered]

That's still like 397ms, you old.

Well that and actually having to decide on the action increases the time it takes to react.

What is that overhead supposed to be 17 rames? So you would have to cut it down to 282ms to actually "win" at that thing.

edit: Now looking at xrd frame data, you can't even block a greed sever on reaction, forget about trying it online. Fighting games are hard.

I'm okay with that. In a real game a good player's reflexes probably improve significantly.

I did a double-take at Cortana at the bottom left. Soon FGW's posterboys/girls will be Robo-Ky, Robo Fortune and Mecha Hisui when melty drops.

I'm guessing it probably won't be that long after the console release, could easily see it be somewhere late 2016.

Such a weird release schedule. Xrd just plops on us out of nowhere and Melty/UNiB get all the anticipation.

Ohhh awesome

Are you a Medaka Box character? Nothing but reaction speed here.

I wish SFV would let me play it without crashing my entire desktop. It's nice to want things.

 

[Rice-Eater]

I can barely get a match tonight compared to this morning where they were coming pretty quickly one after another? What the hell happened during that maintenance?

Capcom balances netcode and matchmaking like it does its games.

Ryu Hp fb beats Nash's ex flash kick. Shit is nuts in terms of move priority.

 

[Lostconfused]

That's fine as long as you accept that the average person might not be able to play.

i might be wrong but i think none of his flash kicks have any invul.

Unless they changed things since last time Nash's only invincible reversal is his Super.

That's fine as long as you accept that the average person might not be able to play.

those terms are acceptable

 

[CountBlack]

I spent some time trying to figure out an answer to someone mashing cr.Jab after Laura's ex.fireball reset.

I think i've found an answer. Ends up being a really quick stun if they go for it.

Her st.HP/st.MP should beat cr.LP's because of the input priority system.

 

[mbpm1]

Yeah Nash has no invincible moves

That's another way he's not like Guile

 

[Cindi Mayweather]

Nash's super is pretty nuts. Punishable, nice range..

 

[SolarPowered]

The average gamer would fall apart in GG and most other fighters. The average person is screwed.

also try their forums on dustloop (http://www.dustloop.com/forums/index.php?/forums/forum/287-may/). i think all the character forums have a dedicated video thread

sounds about right. i'm still having alot of fun tho

The average person doesn't want to play a fighting game for real anyway.

I am actually surprised that 17 frames still has like 1 or 2 frame leeway going by "average reaction time". What were the fastest overheads back in the arcade days? Was this just some standard that was established back then where the devs in japan figured out that was the sweet spot. Considering that with the appearance of modern day TVs and monitors, the additional input lag would more than likely make it impossible to react to.

 

[mbpm1]

Sounds right

I know 15 frames is just outside the margin of reactable overheads

 

[Holy Order Sol]

well start-up isn't everything I guess you'd have to take into account at which point during the animation you can actually recognize what the move is
