The competition in ranked is tougher than casual in my experience.

You can get banned from here for that?

no, but haunts said to send them vids of RQers so they can punish them
That's kinda stupid, unless they're just saying this to discourage people from RQ and won't actually do anything about it until a patch is ready. Video editing could make this a much bigger problem for both Capcom and players than RQ is right now. Surely someone at Capcom thought of this before writing that, but then again, they didn't think about dealing with RQs until now, even though people have been complaining about it since the first working beta! ¯\_(ツ
_/¯Hmm... video editing... haven't thought about that
Does that mean everyone could potentially be a ragequitter now?
Especially that one person you want to pass in rank standings.

So you don't play ranked?
For good competition you do lobbies, it's better than ranked.
I played it to get a decent amount of LP to get better opponents in casual.

Tekken Tag 2's system is perfect. Not only do rage quiters get a loss, they get marked with disconnect ratio that everyone can see before they choose to accept the match.

Casual match making is tied to LP? If that's true that is pretty stupid.
Does people RQing against you affect your disconnect ratio?! I think it did in 3s:OE
Don't think LP matter in Casuals.

Nope. It knows who the disconnecter is.
Definitely feels like I'm getting higher ranked opponents after stocking up on some LP.
Those wrestlers are talking about the Daigo/Lupe match. Daigo is so Hollywood. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t8G4K369S-E

Lupe isn't big headed enough to be called a god.Disappointed in them not referring to him as God.
Why would someone's big headed-ness have anything to do with other people calling him a God?!?!

Damn SVC Sagat looks like a monster.
Yeah I don't understand it either. When I play any kind of game, I wanna get a relatively deep understanding of the mechanics. But ltos of people don't play games to master them, just to have silly fun I guess.
god I lost sooo many games today in ranked SF5, but felt like I was improving. I took 1 game off a 3200 LP dude, and should have beat the other two Silver/Super Silver guys I encountered. I play much better against higher level opposition. It's the dudes doing shit that you really shouldn't do that really fuck me up. Stuck around ~1500 and losing to people when I should be beating them. Not because I'm better but because I flub crush counter punishes, fuck up things like accidentally crouching when I really don't mean to, my wrist just angles wrong, etc.
Might as well ask here as well:
Are the Madcatz Fightstick Alpha buttons soldered in or are there quick disconnects for them? Also, is it possible to fit a Crown 303-FK in one without any issues?
The second question is pretty specific but I've found conflicting answers to the first question.
I didn't really see the entertainment in the Daigo vs Lupe match either but lots of people see it as more entertaining to see these matches like the WWE. The storyline matters more than the actual contents of the match.

They're soldered so you'd need to solder on your own QDs if you replace the buttons.
Dunno about a Crown 303-FK. My guess is it's probably too deep.

I think the opposite. It tells me that they are super active (in communicating latest updates) and listening to the community's concerns. The game has only been out for two weeks and although it's not the best solution long-term, it's something temporary. It tells me that they care about online matchmaking integrity.
It's similar to CS:GO where you report a player with a replay id, the team reviews and gives punishment based on evidence received. It's outta the players hands after that, just report it and move on the next match.
You could make arguments about how this should already be implemented in the game etc. But I feel this it's the next best step to say ''we have a temporary method/fix and are working on a permanent solution" instead of just "we are aware, this will be addressed in a future patch (no ETA at this time)". Hey, at least we got something in-place. Hopefully it works also as a warning by capcom being vocal about it. Players quitting will realize "dang, there's a good chance I'll be penalized retroactively if I ragequit" after seeing capcom's update statements.

Frauds higher ranked need to be punished more severely imo

True
It's just better for me because I don't want to switch back and forth between my laptop and PC, so I just play ranked where I never chat with anyone.
Some stronger players might not be interested in 800LP players that are probably butt.
So blatant
So sad
Mika deserves better.

Punishing people will be opening the floodgates. Every salty rage quitter is a simple video edit away from getting his revenge, and then the integrity of each video will be questioned.That's kinda stupid, unless they're just saying this to discourage people from RQ and won't actually do anything about it until a patch is ready. Video editing could make this a much bigger problem for both Capcom and players than RQ is right now. Surely someone at Capcom thought of this before writing that, but then again, they didn't think about dealing with RQs until now, even though people have been complaining about it since the first working beta! ¯\_(ツ
Don't believe Capcom can even do it since this assumes that Capcom have a system in place to punish people, which is a hilarious idea considering they didn't even think about dealing with RQ until now. The other way to do it will be someone digging into CFN data base deducting points or banning people manually, which seems like more work than writing a small code that count disconnecting during a match as a loss!

Hi, does anyone know how to get a fightstick working with a PC? Online I'm getting mixed information. Some say it requires this thing http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000JFJZGG/?tag=neogaf0e-20, but others suggest other methods, but I haven't found anything that works for me.
I have this fightstick, but it's for PS3 and I'm running Windows 8.
I tried using spc driver to install it, but it doesn't work.

It's an old TE, old TEs have issues with some USB chipsets, so the advice to buy a compatible one is sound.
That's not a usual thing with fightsticks, it's specific to those early Mad Catz sticks and got fixed later.

It would be fun to look at top 50 by character used before and after RQ penalties.

Oh they still do. Sad state of affairs, really.
What Coffeeling says is right. My old TE stick wouldn't work on my laptop but because I couldn't change anything in my laptop I had to buy a Cthulu PCB for my stick.

They should do what Dota 2 does, if you rage quit a lot you get put into a special matchmaking pool with all the other rage quitters so you can play with people that are more inline with your playstyle.

KI does this by putting folks in Jail. TBF the system was pretty broken at first but I feel like it's improved since S2
Ultra today, SFV tomorrow, despite, the SFV bracket being twice as large as Ultra.
Other way around for me. Seen too many free kens on ranked, and casual is where I see the aspiring FANGs

Wouldn't that mean that they would be able to climb the ladder without playing the vast majority of the players out there?
Man there's no need for any new rule, just give them a ban and keep on upping the time on that ban each time they do get banned
I play with some sore loser on halo and buddy got banned for 8 hours lmao
Or if you really want something new, charge them FM to get back from a ban

LPQ doesn't give points
It's just a 5 game penalty you have to play in order to be allowed back into the normal queue, and if you ragequit those then the penalty gets extended. It's even worse in DOTA because you're playing with 9 people who also did something to get sent to the home of infinite losers
