For some reason I decided to input my beta code in the PSN phone app - and now I can't find the beta client anywhere. Does anybody know of some magic to travel back in time and undo my mistake, alternately still finding the beta client (EU Ver.)??

Help would be much appreciated!

You could try your purchase history on the Sony website, then set it to download on your PS4

You'll need to do it on a PC, mobile didn't show a download link

Man just got stuffed by two different Ken players. I need to figure out how to defend against some of his block strings because I seem to get caught in them after awhile, those high to low mixups are good.

The good news is I'm getting a match like every minute now.

R Mika is literally one of the most fun characters I have ever played in a fighting game.

So.freaking.fun.

Agreed she's such a blast to play. Love her quirky normals and devastating throws and set ups with her V-Trigger.

Just an FYI to people I'm getting matches like crazy now so jump on now if you wanna play before it goes down in 2 hours.

PS4 looks rough? I think it looks great. To each his own, I guess.

Some things look good, others admittedly bad.

Overall I think I think the character models look good, which to me is the most important thing visually. It'd be nice if they could improve it before launch, but with so much on their plate being brand-new to them (cross-play, Fight Money system, CFN, etc) I'm keeping my expectations in check.

I love it when people jump in on me using mika's v-skill. They always get hit out if the air with the mic and I can combo qcf+k for a third their life.
 
Just saw when the servers will be offline today, damn my 15 hour Thursdays! Guess I'll be jumping in tomorrow. Glad to hear R. Mika is such a blast. She's be the one I've been looking forward to trying the most.

I think the character models generally look fantastic. Some of the backgrounds are certainly missing some polish - I think China looks great, and it's clearly the level that was made first and has subsequently been polished first. I think Waterfall and London will look better in a couple months.
 
I'm in and it is glorious! I'm getting absolutely no matches though (UK).

Mika is awesome, so much more fun that she was in A3.

And the China stage music is back how it was with the wailing vocal, I am SO happy about that!

Edit: Just got a match, a Mika mirror, and the netcode was absolutely terrible, huge rollbacks, I was connecting hits and it wasn't even registering the damage.

So what are the general strategies you guys go in with when using R. Mika? I know she's not quite a normal throw character and it seems you don't really even need to go from the command grabs even to have a match down so it seems like there's multiple ways to play her. Trying to figure out a grove with her for myself.

Also when exactly is the Beta going down?

Personally I feel like R. Mika is a hybrid of rush down, grappler and 50/50 mixups.

Treat the opponent like a training mode dummy. Vary mixups. Her body splash and jumping lk cross up, not bad after knockdown. EX punch grab has sneaky range. Use the mic when you have distance. Wap their jumps.

I think they took away the battle points to fix the matchmaking it seems, because now after a match is over my battle points don't accumulate. I'll take it for all the matches I've been getting now.

I love how straightforward Mika's intro quote is. Just, "I'll kick your ass!" Succinct.

I currently suck at pulling off the 2 x QCB + P motion, for some reason. Always miss it when it counts.

It's a little tough for me too, especially to react in close.
 
Supposedly 12 hours, back up at 5am EST
Or so I've heard
Oh geez. Well at least I got Thursday night football to pass the time. My 6 year old is gonna be bummed though she wanted to play after school. Wife will probably be happy since she won't here the clicking of my controller lol

Do you mean 2 x HCB + P?

Try doing 3 x HCB + P, that helps in some fighting games.
