Whoever sold Capcom that theme song for this level deserves to be shot, right before they are informed that there are more than two keys on a keyboard. Unbelievable.

This is the best game of all time.

So yeah. Octogonal gate is like swimming in the fucking ocean. Wow. Playing with my boys' SE stick on PS3. WTF at the throw on this thing. Going from a Seimitsu to this is like virgin 'tang to Amsterdam whore.

The disparity is bizarre. I finally tried ranked today and got 5 straight matches fairly quickly, without any glitching, and from green, yellow and red pings as well. The online has been great for me overall.

I think many of the people complaining about the netcode live outside the U.S., in countries that probably don't have as many fighting game players. So thanks to the terrible matchmaking they're probably getting mostly high-ping matches. It's a real shame it doesn't show your ping like HDR and MvC2 did. I'm thinking green is anything under 150, and if so it's pretty damn amazing how smooth it is. 3SOE is much better than 3S on GGPO was, and with low ping it's the best console netcode I've used.

Shame about all the stupid bullshit that makes it such a bitch to get a game going though. Last night I was getting ranked matches pretty damn quick but that was probably just a fluke. I've found it's easy to get 4 player tourneys going. No matchmaking issues there and they're pretty quick. People should check them out.

I was fighting this dude earlier. I took a look at his profile. This is his bio quote:

He...he kinda mashed and spammed a lot. And unfortunately he beat me once doing it. :( Maybe I would have stood a chance if the parry system weren't so usless...!

That was hilarious.


I def think it'll be an entirely different game if they fix the matchmaking and allow local search. The only reason I can even imagine for not having it in the first place is if they anticipated low sales. No point in searching locally if nobody in your region has it, etc.

Okay, I'm on PSN tonight. Hooked up my boys' PS3 in the basement. Gonna send out friend invites soon. His PSN handle is:

Onimaniac

Hopefully Kadey hosts tonight so we can get some streaming action going.

Yeah, I don't get how people can say the netcode is bad because it's been almost nothing but smooth sailing in my experience. The matchmaking is indeed shit, but GGPO doesn't have anything to do with that.

How the hell do I change damage output in this game? Nothing in dip switch or am I blind?

Man, ranked matches were atrocious this morning. Found one match in a span of like 10 minutes.

Actually, I found plenty. But most of them said the session no longer existed. Ugh.

Holy shit, that's enough games for me.

414 games played (2 rounds), with a buddy of mine.

Perfection of a game.

SmartGAF: Is it possible for Capcom to raise the upload resolution with a patch? I think if enough people ask for it and it's technically feasible, they will.

Formerly worldrevolution. The only reason I am nice to anyone else is to avoid being banned.
Got a new stick and said what the hell and grabbed 3rd strike.

PSN is worldrevolution. Can I get added to the list? Japan region. If anyone else is here in J-land please feel free to just add me. I'm on every night with a lot of the community here.

I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere in the thread, but has anyone else had fairly regular freezing with this game? At least once a day I have to turn off my PS3 via the power button on the console because the game completely locks up. My brother had the same problem as well.
Click to expand...

Not yet no. But I am having a lot of issues in both versions (xbox360 and ps3) with the music just dropping out completely. Which honestly - sometimes isn't a bad thing - but is a bit annoying.
