Every time I get close to hitting Bronze, I get matched up with people with twice as many LP as me. I'm staying at Rookie forever.

Has the question of annual Ranking/LP Resets been discussed yet? It seems to me Capcom will do this, especially with online stats/tourney (or something) being a CPT event if I'm not mistaken.
 
I went from 1200 to 800 in an impressively short span.

I was about to hit Super Bronze last night. Needed one more win to get past the 1000LP mark. Ended up going on losing streak that made me plummet to 511LP.

It didn't help that the game kept matching me up with players that had double or more the LP. Anyone know how exactly the matchmaking works? Are you suppose to get matched up with people in the same league or with roughly the same amount of LP?
 
Online still broken in Australia.

Seeing people in other countries able to play the game is really shitting me.
There were only 2 red dots on the heatmap in Aus, thiught that was weird.
I play a lot of fighting games, many online, and I have NEVER had more people quit when they lose more than SFV. Its crazy how much these folks care about their internet ranking. They're only lying to themselves by hiding their defeats, but every time I battle someone with more than a 5 win streak I know they're a quitter. What a joke.

It's like a disease, some people get it too much and just say fuck it and join in. Why should they be penalised if noone else is? I'd honestly go for a total ranked score reset when they get around to fixing it.
 
Someone played Necali online? I'm yet to see him.
A couple of my local friends play him. His normals are just too good, I keep getting counter hit even though I'm patient and only try pokes here and there. I really don't know what I can do, even my AAs get stuffed most of the time.
 
I hit player level 200 and I have no idea why it's so high. I played story, easy survival and about 4-6 online ranked matches
 
Does it take a really long time to get in and out of matches for anybody else? I'll get a match and still have plenty of time to read gaf/twitter before it actually connects and loads up. Then just getting back to the menu or training mode takes ages.

It's so high because you did those things. Single player content pops those levels.
Thats what I don't get. If you can't handle losing then why even play a fighting game? Nobody is going to win 100% of the time.

Someone in here a few days back said they were doing it to get the 4k trophy while they still can before Capcom gets around to fixing it. I'm expecting to see it more and more.
 
What's your character?
Nash. My friend has good reactions and punishes moonsaults and jump ins with DP, so I try some grounded play but Necalli's normals keep me at bay. I gotta be honest, I hate being too patient, I will let you go for your blockstring but I don't plan to keep blocking forever.

Now the heat map is showing people everywhere.

Still can't get a fucking game.

OH JESUS THERES A TROPHY TIED TO THIS!?!?!?!??

That explains everything. What a terrible choice.
 
Yo is it even worth using cmk over cmp as ryu now? Cmp is + on block same range and can cancel. Unless your opponent not block low I can't see the point of using cmk over cmp.
 
The game told me the very basic elements of combat and then I had to watch 20 mins of YouTube videos to tell me the stuff that actually matters. I feel like the actual game should do a better job at informing people who might not have played this genre for 15+ years how to play.

Complaining aside, it's time to learn Nash...

Try to fake some fireballs and punish his charge for big damage. Once you inspire fear in him, you'll have mid/long distance to your disposal. Go in and out and try crossups. Try to make him whiff his grab and use your v-reversal to escape pressure. You need to either have the initiative in close combat or play a good mid/far range play. Also, vertical jumps are good against him. Your dash and some unique normals can be very helpful to close the distance. In fact, I'd recommend going in and out all the time.

the matchmaking doesn't work, it's nonsenical. There's no algorithm.
 
Love the game it's awesome

But...

The game is way to reliant on online servers... it lags up with long loading times even in local play, I know this will improve but feel it's whole online infrastructure is poorly designed

3 ranked matches in 5 days...
 
Ok so first match a casual with 5 only was a teleport fest.... sigh. At least it wasn't ranked. Its hard to fight chun li when you cant see where she is....

Edit: second match found that disconnected as soon as it connected... I wasn't going to play tonight cause I am tired from getting up at 5am to work but I got the itch. Thinking I might not play afterall.
 
Then why am I seeing streamers with playing hundreds of games and people talking about ranking up?

Ranking up? I haven't even played 10 games in total yet.

Pretty sure some countries are getting a massive priority and the server updates seem to confirm this.

No idea. Shows the same for the UK. Plenty of "hot" activity but I spend more time looking for lobbies and waiting rather than playing.

Yeah I'm definitely playing a hit and run style with the occasional pressure when I feel I can do it. I need to keep playing the match-up and figure out what the best course of action is.
 
Wanted to share this as I've been trying out some reshade effects using PhilGPT's preset. He posted some meaty looking screencaps so I had to find out what he did! So I got it working and posted some in-game videos below. I use a GTX 970, 1080p with max settings and vsync off. If the videos look off, remember your monitor type and settings, also in-game brightness settings will contribute to how the effect and colors appear. It definitely makes the game darker and more 'realistic' looking than cartoonish.

Videos:
Bustling Side Street Stage (Normal)
Bustling Side Street Stage (ReShade)

Four Kings Stage (Normal)
Four Kings Stage (ReShade)*

*There is a weird effect when recording, it looks like the framerate drops and the game lags but this occurs only on the recording side. Not sure why. But as you can see the FPS doesn't dip.

How To:
Download: SFV ReShade Preset (By PhilGPT)
Install: Extract files to \Steam\steamapps\common\StreetFighterV\StreetFighterV\Binaries\Win64
Unistall: Delete all files that were added (easy!)
 
Yes. It's probably better to do it that way if you don't give a shit about the Fight Money

No fight money? Boo. Just hitting the lab right now.


Having trouble doing Karin just frame move in combo. I can do it 100% outside of combo. Timing seems to be really strick. I get the dash with not punch a lot. Any one else having issues with it?
 
Server has been weird for me in the last hour. The Vs. screen doesn't show any information about anything, just character names and then --- for all the stats like LP, etc. It shows up on the whole post victory screen deal, but it's also not tracking my wins. I should be at about 7 wins right now, but nadda.
 
Nope took me a full 6-7 minutes waiting to get a 4/5 bar match. Thought I would kill some time with the story modes but the loading times are ridiculous.

Loading times aren't the problem for me. Problem for me is being kicked out of the OFFLINE modes due to their shitty servers.
