Street Fighter V |OTV| BUFF MY MAIN & NERF THE CHARACTER I JUST LOST TO
- Thread starter Garrett Hawke
- Start date
Care to divulge? I see no reason in a 1v1 game for someone to be punished for forfeiting. Ranked is solely for points. Lose the points, winner gets their points, loser is done getting wrecked. What is the issue with that? How does this punish either player?
It doesn't solve any problems. The player who forfeits loses what...the fm that was on the line? Penalties ensure players like that either stop, or just stop playing. The majority are here to play and learn match ups. Having a "I give up" option just enables people who don't wanna get beat down. Take the whooping and then back out.
The system in place fucked you over though, didn't it? So you can't play ranked for days now because of this bunk ass system.
I just can't get behind it. It's half-assed imo.
I don't even understand the point of this option. One's getting beat down so they just decide to quit early? Why are they even playing this game? Imagine if someone behaved like this at locals or at tournaments?
This isn't StarCraft II, where leaving games "before they're done" is totally acceptable and encouraged.

Is there any reason we couldn't wait for the reveal and then buy it? Cause I'm in if it's for my main, but nah otherwise.
By specifically including this feature it then encourages the behaviour. This shows the option as a viable one as opposed to the current state in which the person quitting is dealt with an inconvenience as a result of attempting to circumvent the system. If someone really wants to RQ they also disconnect themselves from the network, which limits their ability to return to play. This means that if some (obviously not all) people would want to quit mid match, then this would be one more barrier.
The suggestion of a forfeit system says that it's an encouraged behaviour. They aren't dealt with any additional inconveniences and would lead to a more widespread use of matches ending early. This is detrimental to the experience of both players, really, as it would force the player who didn't disconnect to have more incomplete matches which cheapens their experience while the people forfeiting are now being given less reason to improve as players, since they're just leaving anyways.
I realize that people do RQ now and that it's somewhat widespread, but why on earth would a new feature that makes that process easier and more accessible ever be a good thing?
If you want to forfeit that hard just put your controller down... the round would be over in 15 seconds tops.
This isn't LoL where games can take an hour. Having a forfeit buttton would be more trouble than it's worth and would take away from the spirit of the game.
There's just no getting around it, though. Mine is a unique situation I suspect is on my PC's end. Disconnects of that nature are never gonna be fixed, I think. Same with if you're internet connection cut out all of a sudden. You just take the licks because shit happens. Having a forfeit option wouldn't negate any of this anyway. Even still, the type of person looking to forfeit shouldn't be playing competitively. There's nothing to be gained from it. If you're getting beat, you try to learn how they are doing it. You don't advance in games like these by playing people of only your skill level, you know?

I just came in here to say fuck this game.
As a Vega player, this game is unplayable.
On top of the game frames, TV and DS4 to PS4 latency, the fucking lag is unbearable, even when I select "5" as the only option for matching players.
How can I possibly string together a combo with Vega when I can't even see my character.
And the amount of Ryu players constantly spamming Shoryuken is just absurd.

I guess encouraging it would be the wrong idea, I can concede to that. I just find the punishment harsh as hell, as someone who has never rage quit before. I think the issue is as simple as deducting the points from the quitter, and awarding the points to the winner. You guys aren't wrong though, having the option there would encourage it. Didn't really think of that.
Basically. If you wanna forfeit get up, have a coffee and a piece of fruit or something then come back when the game is over.
I'm certainly not saying the current system is perfect, but a forfeit option is definitely worse.
I was honestly fine with how the SF4 system worked where you lose the points if you disconnect, however if the rumours of how the game cannot discern who did the DQ are to be believed then that option simply isn't viable unfortunately.

This is exactly what I was thinking as I wrote that post. They don't need to string us along for months and I might buy a season 2 DLC pass if there are characters I want. I'd have to see a contract written in blood promising that they won't try to release "toned down" versions of the DLC characters, though.
I've fought all sorts of Mikas and ironically the ones with less LP play a much stronger footsie game. Just yesterday I completely wrecked a Mika well above 4K and every failed passion press made me utter the word "fraud". She can be played in a legit way, but her style just encourages corner play and passion presses too much. Still better than fighting Ryu and Ken, though.
Vega is probably the scariest character in the game besides Ryu and Ken online. His normals, walkspeed, command grabs (air and ground) and his stupid air game make him super hard to fight unless you are on top of him on wake up. Ryu IS shit to fight, though. There are no good options against characters like him.
This is a basic Windows thing, but have you checked the Event Viewer? It ususally gives some hint on what the problem could be.
You could see the disconnect rate in a lobby in SFIV, I often checked those and basically kicked anyone over 1%. That why I found it funny that Haunt's ragequit trigger was something like 60% lol.
You can't see your character? What.

My system has shown some new signs of instability since the update. Nothing weird in street fighter until yesterday when I was playing local vs for the first time in many months and the game froze temporarily for like 30 seconds, once mid-match and once on the final hit of the round. It stopped after that but it was worrying nonetheless. Don't know if it's windows but it's the prime suspect.
Sorry to hear about your problem.
as ryu, any tips vs cammy? She should be fine but it feels like all of her buttons are too good and I have no idea when its my turn
also her little spin tricks should be alright to react to but it feels like my baboon mind is too slow for that. Anyone can help out?
anyone here plays cammy? it would be nice to play some sets later

So i am stuck using a controller that SFV doesn't see, so i have to use 360ce, my arcade stick is busted doesn't block properly on the left side, the problem is 360ce amplifies Negative Edge, just this simple combo with Rashid gets fucked up a lot now, C.MK into spinning mixer is now a 50/50 chance of turning into whirlwind, even with the slightest tap of the button, really wish could turn of NE, like MK... this same controller SF4 sees without the need of 360ce, come on Capcom release some damn dinput drivers..
Yep, checked there. Of the many minor problems going on there, none showed the SFV App in any areas. Not in Warnings, Errors or plain old Events. It's like the computer has a timer set to straight up shut the game down right away and everything is hunky dory. No error code or anything. Before I revert to before the Anniversary Update, I'm gonna reinstall the game and see if that fixes it.

Have you tried using JoyToKey? or a different joystick to keyboard software?
Should be able to counterpoke her buttons with cr. mp/st. mk/st. lk into things/sweep with good timing. Or fireball them if you're a little further back. Riskier alternatives are lp dp or tatsu or parry but often they aren't worth it. If you have a strong read it might be worth trying once in a while tho.
Unfortunately, you won't be able to get all of them so you do spend a lot of time blocking but you do have to seize the moments you can.
On turns: St. mp > cr. mk has a gap IIRC. You can poke out of it with a fast button. I think st. mp > st. mp might also have one but not sure. They can mix this up with a jab to counterpoke your counterpoke but this relieves some pressure.
If you think she's gonna spin2win, just wait for it and react. If you can't react, practice a bit in training room and you'll be able to eventually.
Parrying random spin knuckles > cr. hp > dp 4 times tends to teach them not to do it or just kill them. If they use hooligan, this is a bit tricker depending on distance. Usually you can st. hk or dp them, but further range is usually a bait for dps and you should use a longer poke like cr. mp, st. mk, or fireball from farther bc they won't hit you most of the time. Do not try to parry anything related to hooligan, you're taking a guess on timing which most of the time won't pan out.
That returns you to footsies/jump game.
That's how I did it when I payed roo at least
There are some weirdly specific answers for quite similar problems if you google it. Maybe it's this?

Do you have a wacom tablet? I remember there being crashing issues having one plugged in (even though mine works fine).
Thanks, guys. I don't see anywhere in services about Tablet PC stuff to disable, but I do have my Wacom tablet plugged in for the first time in a while, so I unplugged and am now testing. Only other thing related is I see something on the right of my taskbar called Windows Ink Workspace. Been there since I reinstalled my Wacom. Still there after I unplugged.
This was one of the earliest known issues with the game so I'm surprised you hadn't heard of it until now. Unplugging it will likely do the trick.

One solid purpose a forfeit would warrant tho is extremely bad lag.
