I'm really liking the music in the game so far. I assume it's the same composer as SF4? I checked the credits, but they don't actually show any credits.

I took a couple of screenshots at 5120x2880 because why not. Capcom did a really good job with the character models.

Lol I wasn't playing you ya flop
I can clearly tell when I'm playing someone on PC vs someone on PS4 now. Netcode definitely needs to be better. Thank god this is a beta!

Goddamn millennial
Some of the matches I've had today are just outright terrible, lag wise. Everything -seems- fine, and then it rollbacks, and then there's huge conflict between who actually got the advantage. Combine that with the already discussed problems of ragequitters and faux-Evoers, and here we are.

So THAT'S why I like Rashid...he's got that El Fuerte low tier shit going on
Rashid is great but I can't train with him without getting in a match so I've been playing Ken and winning most until I see Karin anime my ass, the only thing I got for her is hadou spam and target combo to shoryu when she's close
I don't think imma be in beta 3
I don't want to play someone just to have them nerfed later on
Why Nash? He was low in the first beta why make him worst?
That's a problem for another time but it's whatever I hope Ken stays how he is, his vtrigger cancels I'm doing are great lol and I was hoping he wasn't in the game at all

I never played SFV Ryu prior to this so I can't comment on his nerfs, but I'm having a lot of fun with him which is a pleasant surprise. His st.MP seems REALLY good. + on block, his main combo starter, 5 frames of startup. I've been bullying people with it so far to great success.
Still can't play his type.
All over the place like this is an airdasher.
lol indeed.
Playing Mika and just dreading release. If they released as is then we would have a couple of months of broken characters..that you like.
Nerf everyone i don't like or use instead
Yea it's for the best, but vanilla sfiv was my favorite iteration of it lol.
For the game to strive it needs it I won't comment until I see some changes on bison or birdie
Also rashids vskill is crazy I legit just pressed the vskill button and won a round against Karin. No one can answer to it just yet, would like to see the claw rashid match up
Karin is a reset queen hope that doesn't change since it looks hype but it fucking hurts
His booms aren't as solid and you can't VT cancel them, but I feel the buffs Nash got far outweigh any nerfs he's received from beta 1. He's far from terrible.
If you get Irish whipped into the corner by someone who knows what they are doing, you'll see it real quick.

Really dumb question: where do you see your overall record for ranked matches? The info I see only has each match result listed individually.

I played her for about 30-40 matches and I don't see it. She feels pretty match-up heavy, and I don't see anything regarding her mobility, normals or damage that's really outstanding compared to the others.
Yeah, she is a corner monster, but she has problems getting there. That's grappler meta in a nutshell though, isn't it?
BronsonLee

Yup. You're gonna eat a light kick into a throw reset real, real fast. Just had it happen to me.
They fucked up the endgame though, kept trying to cut promos against Rashid which equals him all up in your grill spinning.
Most of it has to do with the newness and the things people have found and abuse. This can be an actual broken thing or something people just haven't found a solution to.
Hope capcom can see the difference between the two and stop handing out these nerfs like crazy.
Yeah Mika is really good, I don't think I've beaten anyone using her yet. Not saying she's OP or anything though. I think it's the standing light kick that manages to hit me every time.

Charlie can punish his V-trigger with his Critical Art. And I guess Mika with her V-trigger.

Had a good run with Rashid in the beta, didn't get bodied all the damn time and won some real close matches.
Calling it for today. I've had my fill! Rashid is probably going to be my main. I love Mika, but she doesn't fit me. Rashid going from keepaway to up in your face immediately just suits me.

Also teleports out of the way and makes you waste it.

It's best when it's not in the corner and with spacing between you and them. You can do some real fucked up crossup stuff with it and the V-Skill. Anything he does in the air/involving wind will go WAY faster if it goes through the hurricane, too.
Idk, I guess not being able to play the Nash I played is making me talk shit
I can wait for release
I'll stop whining now

I tried doing that thing in the video against mika (where her block would still lead to massive grey dmg) this mika didn't block tho so she went down fast

How many hours we still have?
Pretty much exactly how I feel. She's a beast in the corner but she really doesn't have any good tools to approach.
BronsonLee

You block, you're eatin' grey.
You don't block, it's a 4 hit divekick combo for massive damage.
If you abuse her crouching LK into forward MK you can kind of abuse how she moves forward during that move to keep the pressure on your opponent. It was pretty devastating in my opinion, it seemed that Ken and a couple other characters had an answer with their normals or shoryukens to that strategy but it seemed maybe a little too advantageous and OP.

I think he's low tier. He has nothing that get's him out of the corner.
Also Ken's medium Tatsu's invincible on startup? Went against a Ken who mashes it and Fierce DP and lost to it with Cammy's Cannon Spike
I'm Sumo, brother. My body could be in one place my mind another.
Congrats.
Can't get matches where people ain't teleporting over here IF i even get them..

Matchmaking was much better for me Yesterday and I live in South Asia. Out of the 10 or so matches I played, the lag was unbearable in only 1 of them.
Any ETA on how long the Beta will last today? I want to have one last session till it ends today.

I am also one of the worst but your post has given me some inspiration. Currently my record is 0 wins but I hope to make it better like you someday.
I was only able to get on the beta for about an hour and a half yesterday, but I was getting matched up with people pretty frequently. I was actually kind of annoyed that I couldn't spend more than 5 minutes at a time in training mode.
West Coast U.S. PC here, maybe 80% of the matches were good while the rest had occasional stuttering and teleporting. I did have a couple of Rashids disconnect right as I would take the first round; might have been the same guy.

Stuck in the lab smh that's what I need
You're too humble, you're at least 3rd or 4th worst SF player. My best so far is winning one round. I did actually win one match, but that doesn't count as I'm pretty sure the opponent was pressing buttons at complete random (which I can only barely deal with).
Was on wireless first and was stuck in the lab way more.
Try that if you wanna be training instead of playing. Not sure it has a connection tho.
Everyone is like that compared to Vega.

I've been playing Mika exclusively and I feel like she's strong as hell. I can't remember the last game I lost but a lot of that is lack of player skill. Her st.MK is her greatest tool. You can use that until they decide to finally stop pressing buttons and then you get to run your game.
She gets a massive throw buff off just a single tap of her V-skill and she can get massive damage off anywhere on the screen. Before her throw that could really only be used in the corner that wall bounces was her best damage. But if you do the throw mid-screen and back dash you get the wall bounce anyway into a full combo.

Huh, haven't played Ryu myself, but I was hearing Gootecks say that he thought this was Ryu's strongest iteration ever on his stream earlier
