I thought they fixed the servers? I got one game in over 40 tries. With a guy from China. How can companies continue to have server issues in this day and age? Can someone versed in IT/software coding explain this to me? Because Capcom or any company surely must know by now that me a millions of others will keep slamming on the connect button for hours at a time when a software product launches. How can they not be prepared?

His pokes should outrange Zangief's grabs, and Vega has one of the fastest walking speeds in the game to boot. Playing footsies shouldn't be problematic as long as you're patient.
Capcom says a lot of things.

GGs StriKeVillain. I'm going to figure out how to be more aggressive against Nash. Following a Sonic Boom seems like it would give me some trouble since if I'm in the air and try to swipe you, I can still hit the boom. Also Nash's jumps are scary, I tried some normals to AA but he seems to have a steeper arc than most and went right over my cr.MP, I did AA with B.HP a few times, but it's slow startups makes it kind of scary to use on reaction. Nash's normals I also need to read up the frame advantage on, you got a lot of throws, because I was worried about throwing out jabs and getting a knee in the face for my trouble.
Also I made a mistake, I meant to say his medium punch pushes him forward a bit. Although I think his light punch may move him slightly forward.

Playing as F.A.N.G. is more fun than I thought it would be
He's super fun I just can't stand his design.
Lizard with a ladder
learnin' with the blacks!
Any Necalli or Ryu players have any tips on fighting Nash. He's the character that gives me the most trouble.
Movistar, NAT3. Did you get it changed to NAT2?
But fuck it being my end. I play Rocket League all the time and that shit is perfect.

Fought my first Birdie! Is he not good or is it just that nobody wants to use Birdie?

GGs dude.
Yeah I haven't fought many Sim's so a lot was new to me. Haha that teleport takes a while to get used to. We'll get some more games in soon.
I got the collectors guide today so I'll put some serious reading in this weekend. So much to learn.

So I have a training program that's already showing me results!
Here's what I do:
In the morning, I pick one character at random. Everyday is a different dude, so no repeats. I stick with that character all day. I learn their moves, I do like 30 reps of moves for execution sake on both sides, I fuck around with the CPU to see what works and what doesn't, and then I try to find combos on my own.
At this point, I'll take myself online with this character. I play five matches. Doesn't matter if I win, I'm just seeing what I did wrong and learning from it. Usually it ends badly.
Then I go back to the lab and take the three biggest things I fucked up on, and three biggest things I did right. For example, with Ryu, I wasn't DPing enough, I wasn't trying to get some stun going on the opponent's side, and I wasn't playing aggressively enough.
So I fix those things. I put the CPU to work with some recorded moves or I look up how to be more effective. Hmm, seems I need to learn how to parry fireballs to start or moves I know I can get an easy parry off of so I can get to Denjin mode faster, and if I train them to jump at me more often, I can get some DPs going, and if I can find a way to apply pressure while I think like throwing out fireballs, I can keep them off their game.
I play a few more matches online after that. Bam. I'm taking wins a lot easier, and I'm not doing stupid shit as much.
I'll probably stop switching characters so much in a month, but my goal is to learn the game and how it wants to work instead of fighting it, and learn how people could play these characters. I'm not a Ryu player, but I gain a better understanding of how a Ryu player might act.
Birdie just requires people not to get hung up on simple shit. Like a Birdie with good setups and good reads is REALLY hard to fight. A bad Birdie can get blown up easily.

But I'm the one fighting Nash as Sim lol. Yea, I'll still check it out. I need to research the gaps and his weakness. In hindsight, I need to try some Yoga Flame stuff when I get a knockdown since heavy version is frame advantage, and I still need to see how good instant air yoga flame is, it left my mind since I started practicing it yesterday.

I wouldnt mind a few more stages and i feel forced to play online, im not always with the mindset/mood for that. Still disapointed that theres no arcade. Story mode is nothing, doesn't deserve any mention, survival is ok... Tough 100 fights its a bit silly...
Good thing is the game feels fantastic to play, looks great and the music is a step up from SF4.

I don't think the game will run at any FPS besides 60. I think the game has nice scaling as far as visuals go..even low don't look to shabby

It's not on your end. Same is happening to me and I was able to play with a friend on PC, same as me. I just can't seem to find and play any of my friends from a PS4.
Same here, but yeah, other games run just fine. Will keep calling tomorrow and see what I can do, some of my friends have had the same problem and a simple call did the trick, so we'll see.
Don't get too crazy in training mode if you're new. Learning how to use the characters normals is more important than learning huge damage combos that you'll land once every 5 matches.
You really just need one combo that can punish something quickly, like something that starts with a lp or lk, and one bigger combo that can punish more risky moves like a whiffed dragon punch. Any more than that and you're just going to confuse yourself at first,

I love Nash's horrible posture, I just realized its him trying to hide his gross arm.

Usually an episode per week. Often on Sundays.
We'll be getting an episode every Sunday so it'll take a month for 4 episodes to come out. While you get all the episodes at the same time I believe on their site.
I wish I had it. ;_;

Wouldn't it be faster to not have to wait for the other person to select? And be simpler since everything is ready to go, all it's doing is finding you someone to fight?

Yeah was working fine for me last night prime time Japan
Think of it as being more old school than anything.
On that note, Rashid's CA...it can only be blocked by a standing block right?
Yeah but the process of looking for an opponent takes a lot more.

Can someone explain to me how to do Necalli's two different Critical Arts? I tried doing the motion with Triple and Double punches to do it as an EX, but they both seem to be doing the same damage?

Try performing it while in V-Trigger mode.
It's different if you're in v trigger.

How? The matchmaking? It's not as good as SF4's because it's launch and it's getting hammered. After a few more days, this shit will be like butter.
Not like Ultra was all that smooth in the first place. LOL UNABLE TO FIND SOMEONE TO FIGHT LOL

Last hour or so had a good run with no disconnects. I could go for more of that. Got my first win against someone who was clearly skilled but just managed to outplay them. This game is alright.
Still trash at it and having a hard time adjusting from previous games. Doesn't help that I primarily play charge characters. Will just take time.

Abuse fireballs from a distance as long as you can?

Is it true that battle lounges only allow two people at a time? I read that in Giant Bomb's review but I thought I saw options in there supporting multiple players. If so that's really stupid.
