I may have made a colossal mistake. I set my region to Canada because I was being honest, but I should have picked USA. I already tried deleting my progress file and settings file but that didn't work. Is there any way to change region once you set it?
Thank god you can fight against the CPU because if matching takes region into account, I won't be getting a whole lot of real matches.

EWW! The rollback is back for me, and I'm seeing full hits of mine turn into RAINBOW THROWS from the opponent. EW EW. Nasty, hate it. The netcode seems to change every patch, lol.
Necalli... he's a cool character design, but... what else is he? Everyone else has all these "I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU HAVE THAT! THAT'S SO COOL!" stuff, but nothing for him feels great for me yet. I think I need to use his transformation much, much more.
He has a nice MK cross up! And.. err... HK stomp can lead to his super for free.. and... err... -shrug-

He's really straightforward and has very short combos/little room for creativity. Good beginner character, bad for lab monsters.
Only got to see the Beta for a few minutes last night, but I love how they updated Vega's design. That alone makes me want to use him. He looked terrible in SFIV, but looks fantastic here they way they animated him. He's never had so much style before. They really stepped up their game in the models and animation.
I really want all the Vanilla SF2 characters back for that reason alone. Most of them were wonky.

There's some good ways where she can nail some raw hurt, especially in V-Trigger, but beyond that, he's not particularly great on the mixup, and not a lot of combo variety. Another character that is just missing something.
So people already know his set ups, options off knockdowns, effective ways of approaching anti-airs and the follow ups that go with them? That's a very simple character to completely figure out their gameplan/options for everything in a matter of hours.
Damn.
No idea. I'm wondering how much will carry over, such as the display name you're locked into.
In a beta. 5+ months before release

I wonder how much change is going to go into the Fight Money economy. If what we saw last night was fairly accurate it was 2000 FM for a Stage and I was getting 10 FM for a loss. Didn't see what the other guy earned for beating me though.
I can see easily see new characters being like 10,000-15,000 FM when this game launches.

I'm saying. Max was putting in a lot of work with Necalli in a video he put up recently.I think he looks the most interesting of the cast so far.
Was watching this fool last night. "I will show you my ass!" had me rolling.
Obviously. We all know you can figure everything about them just hitting a lifeless training dummy! /s
I actually really like him and his near-zero execution required gameplay.

Yeah, considering how many changes Necalli has gotten before release, its hard to see him being the same character at release that he is now.
Also based on impressions here, its not hard to see why he's gotten so many changes.
What is the problem? Is there not enough people in Canada playing?
And wouldn't it make more sense to play against people on the same country as you? You know, because lag and stuff...
I pre-ordered from amazon.com yesterday, went straight to customer support to get my code ASAP.
I recall them saying your beta fight money unlocks won't. Not sure about account name.

Looks like it's Susan again..
Nope..back.

Necalli's Crouching Fierce Punch seems to be the best hitstun he can cancel. Thus, you can get qcf+K off it, leading to a pop-up that can be ended with his Super or a Fierce DP.
Normals combo one wants to go for is close s.MP, link s.MK->s.HK target combo, V.Skill
"seismo".
In V-Trigger mode, he can do 2 standing Weak punches into Medium or Fierce DP. In non-trigger, only the FP one seems to work.
EX Command throw leads to a DP followup from anywhere, since they do a nice job of moving him to screen center no matter where he is with it.
Are his QCF-K Stomps particularly Plus-frames or anything? Weak is the one that normally combos off stuff, medium feels like it should welcome followups but seems odd, HK only combos off crouch fierce and leads to popup followups, and the EX one does not lead to combos like I'd expect it too, compared to other crazy characters like Mika or Vega.
The 2 super animations are a nice touch. Is there any list out there for what changes for him in V-Trigger? Universally better frames? Invincibility on certain moves?

Well look it that way: It was never supposed to be already up, let alone Rashid playable right from the start. When it's online for real later you get lots and lots of flowchart kens
Edith: I think Necallis V-Trigger just increases the damage on all his attacks for the sacrifice of no V-Reversal.

Is the rollback netcode fine for everybody?
Haven't had a match with no stuttering or teleporting last night or today.

I played many Americans and Japanese from Germany and it's 50/50 for me on americans. It's really bad, when there is lag and it's fine when there's none. I played someone from the uk and france once and that felt pretty much okay.
Not sure why but I was matched a lot with Japanese and two Koreans.

She has 3 throws. Which one? Wingless airplane (air throw) is qcf+kk. Brimstone is qcb+kk. And the last one is qcb+pp.
Silly Vulva, you don't need to know any of that to declare a character trash.
You go by what you feel!

Arn't they half circle backs, not QCB's?
Muchi Muchi Pink

Yes, but I'm sure they work qc. At least I didn't do hcb all the time.

How? Half requires you to hit forward first
I don't think that's true, it's just that it's pretty lenient with the inputs. I think it'll consider it a half circle if you just start from down forward.
Muchi Muchi Pink

Maybe it's my imagination, but I didn't do them hcb but more like qcb. Maybe I touched forward for less than a second and then did the qcb motion.
Yeah. I did most out of a dash anyways, so I guess the forward is buffered.

I live close to the US and have a good connection. I play USFIV on my US account (I recently moved to Canada so my PSN account is US) and I don't typically have lag problems.
It remains to be seen whether there are enough people in Canada playing, but the US has like 10x the population.

The beta hasn't officially started so it's nothing worth getting sad or upset about.
I'm not upset or anything. Just a bit miffed is all. I know it's not meant to be up yet. I didn't mean to come across as whining or anything like that.
Wouldnt't it just be a property change from a command throw, into an attack throw? In Zangief's case, would the EX move possibly be blockable?
Other than that, crush-counter style hits also seem to allow throws. So charged normal that cause stagger style hits can combo into throws. Mika can combo into her CA, even through it seems to legit be a non-blockable throw, right? Pretty sure you can do it off charged HK, for starters.
I find it funny how Mika's off-the-wall rope throw counts as the opponents being in the air. I hope it stays that way, since the reset, AA throw use, and ability to still combo into her Command Normal MK uppercut all feel great out of the move.

Is his damage output bad then? I understand short combos if he has umph but not if he doesn't lay damage down with them.
