I've gotten 2 matches in the span of 5 minutes. Is it getting better for everyone?

 

[Mizerman]

Why does a spanish ninja yodel anyway?

The same reason why he's able to jump walls and defy gravity.

...When I find that reason, I'll get back with ya.

Necalli dudes, can we just talk about this range and speed for a second?

[Dartastic]

I still can't even download the goddamn update. I hate everything.

 

[nikos]

FINALLY got a match four and a half hours later. Got nothing for winning. -_____-

EDIT: Another match! I think they're fixing it.

Dat Berserker Barrage V.

Seriously though, that was awesome.

The range is like Chun's ultra in SF4 but since it's not charge can be done at any time, also makes the step forward to cover the small amount of distance that it can't connect, easier.

 

[Akibared]

I got one match in!

So good. I was surprised how fast his regular berserker slash was for fireball punish too.

 

[qcf x2]

I think it's like Nash. They allowed them to go from lights into their target combos, since Mika can do lp > lk > mp into flying peach. To get rid of it, they basically would have to make her lk too slow to combo from her lp. The damage seems rather scaled though, so I don't think it's a big issue.

I agree, it's not a big deal. I was just surprised, because some almost made it seem like characters were ruined without the SF4 jab spam.

so what can Mika do against Vega? I'm training with the CPU and shit he is hard to beat

Everything. He's got less range than usual on his normals, so command grab that fool. On the topic of Vega, his gravity-defying VS screen chain bothers the heck out of me.

The thing is, nobody who knows anything about Necalli is going to throw fireballs against that dude. He's got that easy mode seismo, so at minimum they'll be eating that. I feel like his speed up in V Trigger will prove to be its biggest benefit. He closes in so quickly.

 

[vulva]

I just played a Ken and realized I can v-trigger on reaction to a fireball, use that time to buffer the super input and punish for more damage.

This dude.

From the way it looks, Necalli is going to be solid. Excellent.

Can't use R3 and L3 with the Hori Fighting Commander anymore. That sucks...

I just wont a match with that lol. Dudley would blush with envy.

 

[drac96]

Ok Capcom have issues with the matchmaking but HOW CAN WE UNLOCK KANZUKI ESTATE WITHOUT MATCH?!!

Don't worry! Even if you get into a match you'll receive nothing for it, so right now the stage is literally impossible to unlock...

7 years of playing SF4 chun disagrees with that.

Chun-li will never be unlocked FeelsBadMan

I will never yata FeelsBadMan

Why even be alive FeelsBadMan

 

[ryan13ts]

Got two matches earlier playing as Mika, won both but noticed it didn't give me any exp or money for it. I'm guessing that's still being ironed out?

Haven't had a match since, been training as Necalli for a awhile now. Really hoping I get a match soon, dying to try out what I've been learning as him. What's the general tier consensus so far?

 

[Coda]

Right now the matches I've played have been too laggy to play R. Mika's grab game effectively but I still won 3 out of the 4 matches I played simply out of already studying the shit out her moves and setups. There's just too much teleporting currently to know when I'm close enough to grab. I really hope the released product has amazing netcode. There has been those moments of goodness in some matches where it runs smooth but once it starts lagging, it lags hard.

 

[yurinka]

Hey, while in training in beta 2 you can activate the IA, CPU isn't just a dummy!

 

[joekusa]

Sadly even with a match, you get no fight money. I had 2 matches with Necalli and won them both, but no fight money earned. Also it isn't recording my matches like yesterday. I have a 0 matches played in my profile and doesn't show a history of who I fought. So that is probably what Capcom was referring to when they said they ran into some issues, their fight network is having problems, even though it was working somewhat yesterday.

I see that after, got 2 match... In this case, they need to unlock it for everybody I think...

Necalli and Mika are fun to play and Ken look nice, not like I think but I'll have to more train to find a good way to play him.

 

[skLaFarebear]

Played 4 matches so far since yesterday. All have been near perfect except for one where I fought a slightly teleporting Necalli (who I've run into the most since the thing started).

American for reference.

This dude.

Man, that sounds crazy good. VT Necalli with full meter is dangerous. Massive damage off of anything.

 

[KingBroly]

They need to just take the beta down at this point. Especially with PC users being able to play soon, who probably won't be able to get much play against others.

I simply don't get how they regressed from Beta 1 to 2 so much again, and really sours me on their ability to get online working right on Day 1, not to mention crossplay.

I've been getting pretty consistent matches in the last hour or so, don't take this down please

 

[Gr1mLock]

I do like the fact that i dont have to mash X for 45 minutes to even get into 'training' mode so in that respect i think this beta has been good. I do however notice a considerable performance drop. The last beta would sometimes stutter and have slowdown but in this build I've been experiencing hiccups all over the place.

 

[Producer]

I think the performance issues is just the game trying to match you up with someone to play. Not the actual game itself.

 

["God's Beard!"]

So what exactly does Necalli's V-Trigger do anyway? I don't feel like playing anybody but Vega to find out right now.

I have never witnessed a streetfighter character that I hate just based off of aesthtics alone. Every inch of that character is so fantastically unappealing that I am in awe. This is the worst SF design -- he looks like he was in sf4, and then they just dumped him here with a (drunk) wolverine's moveset. His character model screams "we are just trying to tick a box under the unique column" rather than there be any thought put into his design.

Also, he still looks like a human blanka.

Yup that's definitely matchmaking stuff. We'd be hearing a lot of shit from local preview builds if the framerate actually dipped this bad at times.

 

[Coda]

I think I found a loophole way to record videos to your PS4 on blocked scenes which people might want to use to record their gameplay. If you double tap the share button before you want to start recording do it and a little recording icon will pop up. Once you're done recording double tap the share button again. Viola, if you try and just save the video by tapping the share button once and saving through the PS4 menu the video will just be a black screen but this way you'll actually capture the video.

That would make more sense.

I'm really impressed with the quality of the netcode tonight

 

[Producer]

[QUOTE="God's Beard!";182529665]So what exactly does Necalli's V-Trigger do anyway? I don't feel like playing anybody but Vega to find out right now.[/QUOTE]

More damage, new combo options, faster dash, new CA, etc

 

[GorillaJu]

But he specifically Ken used to be able to do all that easily.

And now it turned into 1f links.

That are not even intended. He said Ken feels way higher in terms of execution than the rest of the cast and compared to his older version that he tested, for no reason.

He also showcased how useless they made his Vskill.

Sigh. Oh well they still have months of tinkering the game.



Always.

I love his content but he tends to jump to conclusions rather quickly. I wouldn't worry too much yet.

 

[Greenzxy]

If Netcode was like this Day 1, I would be fine with it.

Yep, but at least we can play against CPU without problems.

 

[Coda]

Loving this simple BnB, just ended a real match against Ken with it. Felt so satisfying. Unfortunately this clip is me just in training mode doing it, but I swear I just pulled it off in a real match haha.

Getting matches like crazy now.

Hmmmm. So that's why my cross up tatsus weren't working lol. No v trigger. Whoops.

 

[Muchi Muchi Pink]

Hey if someone connection is bad then it's bad. I played yesterday people from America with little to zero issues (I'm in Germany). But had someone who didn't use a country flag but the SFV that teleported really bad. Then played a korean which was decent enough. I think when it drops and people play more against other near them it will be fine? At least that's my hope.

But today I ain't getting any matches.

 

[Clawww]

Put together a Ken combo video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KYoUXat6KEQ

needs run combos

 

[cheesekao]

So I heard ken can link st lp into his back mp which is his target combo starter. I thought they removed light to medium links. Mika has light to medium links as well.

 

[GorillaJu]

Im getting a match every 5 minutes or so. This is nowhre near as bad as people are making it out

 

[IbukiLordSA]

I got fight money, 50 for the match:

Your experience isnt the norm. Happy you got matches though!

I didn't get any exp or fight money from my matches either, all 2 of them =[
