According to their Facebook, the season starts with Akuma, so I might have lost another bet.

You're only hurting yourself with these bets...

What do you get if you win these bets, anyway?

[TheSpoiler]

You know I don't even know what I'd win. Confidence?

But I only promised to main 5 characters so that's a little less awful than eating ass.

Just eat ass bro we all know u want to do it anyway

Worst case, by Season 3 you might've eaten enough of your own ass to write an Ass Recipes cookbook. That's a bet you can win.

SFVServer has now tweeted the maintenance period as well:

We will perform scheduled server maintenance from 9am to 5pm PDT on 12/20 (TUE). Thank you for your patience and continued support.

Kinda weird that it has taken them this long to get that out there, but I'll allow myself to be hopeful for tomorrow. However, I am not going to eat ass if I am mistaken.

Dhalsim mirror on apprentice alley unlocks it

 

[Marvel]

S2 got me all hype though, any refesher no matter how small (not that this is small) interests me greatly in FG's. Even with characters I do not use.

Plus Akuma ofc, looks mad fun.

It doesn't have to be a mirror, just a match where I played Sim vs the CPU did it for me.

KI just released patch notes and a video about the patch for the patch they are implementing tomorrow.


Meanwhile, waiting for Capcom to give us patch notes

 

[Zombegoast]

Fucking Iron Galexy just released a video on Patch 3.6 coming out tomorrow.

Meanwhile Server Maintenance announced by Capcpom

 

[Gr1mLock]

Patch notes? I'm still waiting on haunts' blog post

Capcom needs to do a better job of communicating with their community...

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

Nah y'all just being thirsty, they said the 20th, so just wait till the 20th.

 

[FluxWaveZ]

Nah y'all just being thirsty, they said the 20th, so just wait till the 20th.

Iron Galaxy also gave a date, but they still make efforts to communicate and keep their fans up to date during the wait. So does Blizzard. So does any other company that cares about cultivating their competitive community.

 

[Edzi]

people really gotta learn to be patient

This is true too though, Capcom is utter garbage at communication. They really need to study what the guys on the KI team are doing.

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

That's their choice, if you can't wait for more info on the date they mentioned, you're just being impatient.

And it's not like they didn't do anything at all in the mean time, they even held a tournament on the akuma build at WSO.

 

[Dark_3nergy]

They may be bad at communicating their plans for S2 + Patch Notes. But they sure are bringing us a lot of hype for the game though.

It seems to me, if they haven't said anything yet about notes, then they are probably busy getting prep work done for the maintenance. Which I am sure is a top prority for them. I remember the betas where they maintenanced that for several days on end.

 

[Ucchedavāda]

Here's a surprisingly decent article on what has happened with SFV this year, from Kotaku:
Street Fighter V's Rollercoaster Year

Nah y'all just being thirsty, they said the 20th, so just wait till the 20th.

I'm perfectly happy to wait until the 20th.
I just wish that Capcom would do a better job at communicating what they are working on / planning to do, in general.

 

[BlizzKrut]

Patch Notes are coming:

Spoiler

when the Alex trailer releases.

 

[Sheroking]

Patch-notes are pretty worthless without the patch, so I'll give them until I start the download before I throw them under the bus.

I mean, honestly, we got AE, AE2012 and Ultra patch notes.

 

[JayEH]

Y'all gotta remember we're dealing with a Japanese company. Communication isn't their forte. Which makes the game esports focus hilarious.

They did do exactly that though

 

[Dark_3nergy]

That, and if you're gonna put out notes, they need to be the final version. Patch notes is really the last thing they are going to focus on, when they have a maintenance window that is that large.

 

[Producer]

I bet capcom jp hasnt given capcom usa the patch notes lol

 

[GuileBootCamp]

Pretty much.

If we don't get them tomorrow morning/afternoon though, then it's a problem, because that means we're likely to get the patch before the patch notes.

 

[FluxWaveZ]

I think the issue here is that we haven't been given official notice that there even is a patch tomorrow.

 

[Dark_3nergy]

Yup, which tells me they are still busy finalizing everything. It's typically better to not put a release date out, then to build expectations on having a date made public anyway. Cause if they couldn't deliver on a specific date, everyone who plays SF5 will have a nuclear melt down.

Pretty much.

If we don't get them tomorrow morning/afternoon though, then it's a problem, because that means we're likely to get the patch before the patch notes.

That all falls under how the maintenance goes honestly. They had some unexpected extended maintenance in the past for these servers before haven't they?
