I think this is misleading. Nearly every OS in 4 got you to a safe situation, even if the opponent did nothing and blocked hence why it was called Option Select. Using this so called "OS" will get you blown up if you try to apply it to people not expecting it (blocking) as the option for someone blocking is Ken getting his st.HK blocked.

I would even say Momochi's "psudo" crouch tech isn't really a crouch tech as it is just buffering throw tech behind a normal.
 
Wish you'd get a tiny amount of fight money even if you lost. Came away from 45 mins of play and didn't have much to show for it.
 
Got disconnected from the server just as I was about to win a match and rank up.

I'm having such a difficult time winning in ranked with Zangief. I do really well in Battle Lounge matches, but I can't get a read on people fast enough in one match. By the time I figure out what they're doing, the game is over.
 
what is that move Rashid does at the end of round 2 when he looks like he matrix-style dodges Vega's attack and counter attacks? He does a little move back in the corner

also, there's totally going to be a Mika costume where its just a model swap with Nadeshiko right? Mik can come out during those EX moves and V-Trigger
 
Many many many of the disconnects you're seeing aren't ragequits, it's people being being D/C'd by the servers.

If the servers were to blame which they've had their fair share of blame since launch, then it would happen at a random point during a match. Not when you are right about to win against your opponent.

Right now there's no punishment for disconnecting, and lots of incentive to do so since you lose a lot of points when you lose. I'm not sure what Capcom can build into the game or if they have a ragequit penalty system in the works, but at the very least they should be keeping track of a player's disconnect percentage so people can choose whether they want to fight that person or not beforehand.
 
LMAO, I just went against a 65 win streak Zangief. He was garbage, and rage quit during the second round.

Damn, I wish I knew how the Share function worked before quitting my game, 'cause that was magical.
 
That season pass feels so dishonest somehow. I want to earn that stuff the legitimate way with fm!
No I'm not just a cheap guy!

The value is more for the costumes for me, and I'll just build up money for next season plus other stuff they release along the way. With that discount it's worth the chance. I can adjust my strategy next year if I'm swimming in too much FM.

you know your vega is starting to become pretty fucking serious when you get a rage rage quit every 5 games

Well I just beat a Vega with Flash Metroid's name lol. It's just one game but I'll take it. I've fallen to every other "name" player I've faced so far.
 
whats NecNec's third color? the one you get from easy? if its decent Ill suffer through it I guess, that mode is shit

As it is you already get such a tiny amount of fight money per fight that it seems meaningless. I honestly thought that they were gonna give you around 500 fight money per ranked win and 200 per loss. Crazy that it's only 50 per win. Thats 2000 wins to afford a character with pure ranked victories. I didn't play 2000 matches of Street Fighter IV the entire time I played it! Thankfully, fight money is somewhat abundant elsewhere, but you should still earn around 10x more per ranked match.
 
not sure if my pc is throttling or theres a problem on sf v

i noticed that my fps drops to 30 during the first round then it comes back to 60 after some time
 
Anytime the game is making selections for a person instead of them making a choice I think it's bull shit.

So if I know you down in corner, and do a jump in you should have to think about it. If instead I go for a set up, and you get 2 of the options covered it reduces risk, mind games, and waters the game down.

Option selects exist in every fighting game ever. You can't eliminate them completely. But you can reduce how much the game revolves around them. SF4 was very option select heavy because of the way the game's mechanics were designed. Not so much in SF5, but there are hella option selects in SF5.

The vreversal/throw OS doesn't seem that good to me because you're wagering a valuable resource on something that could still easily get baited and punished. It's a tool that will have uses, but calling for its removal like 5 seconds after you hear about it is alarmist.
 
This game is awesome as hell. The music is fantastic! I wish you could continue at least once in Survival though. Nothing sucks more than getting to the 29th stage on Normal and losing :(
 
Anyone have any general tips for playing Cammy? I'm having an extremely hard time going up against Karin. Lost to the same person 6 times in a row already.

Posts like these almost smell like astroturfing at this point. Servers are still fucked to an extent but you very rarely get booted from matches anymore while quitting simply is not punished whatsoever. What the hell do you expect?

I expect that they are prioritizing making the game function first, then they'll worry about the rage quitters.
 
Using R Mika, what should be my go to punish combo after someone whiffs a DP or otherwise I have a big opening?

Passion Press combo. Get a midscreen wall bounce and go for a reset or do EX Peach to get them in that corner or keep them in the corner.

]charging hard kick > s.lk > s.mp > m. butt slam[/B]
s.mp > s.hp > butt slam
s.mp > s.mp into corner throw > charging hard kick > m air grab (or ex air grab)
ex command grab

You can't do Charge HK because it takes too long to pull off and if you block an SRK, you're stuck in blockstun long enough that you can do a Charged HK in time.
 
Oh my god fucking survival man. Was doing fine and then all of a sudden late-game CPU Vega decides to air throw me out of EVERY SINGLE one of my jumps on him.

Fuck this mode. I'm never going to beat hell.
 
So all my ranked games today were laggy as hell, so I just left my stick for a few of then. Lounge was the same but thankfully all of a sudden, maybe because I restarted my router, who knows, lagless lounge!! Hope it's fine tomorrow too be because days of lag was sucking all the joy out of the game big time!
 
I went from 2100 to 942, something went horribly wrong.

Yes you kept playing, I went on a 7 game losing streak earlier and took about an hour break doing much better since then.

Seeing as were on the subject does anyone else have the same mental disconnect I seem to have. I do very well in ranked and go to casual and just get wrecked .... its weird.
