God these servers are trash. I've been booted so many times tonight. I need to hit pause on ranked.

Do you get kicked straight out of games?

I don't think that ever happened to me. Maybe twice in like a thousand matches (outside of ragequitters)

I get a lot of 40002 and recently 80001 though.

What's funny is that the original tweet also promised big things for Capcom

I'm sure we can expect to be blown away any moment now and into the past

The reason I asked, sarcasm aside, is because Taipei Game Show is going on right now. I heard we may be getting news this week but who knows when it comes to Capcom and this game.

The game will pause mid-match, and then after a few seconds the game will drop and it will give an error message and then another one saying connection to the server has dropped or some such. Then I have to log back in from the main menu. Been happening recently.

whats the lowest price SFV has been on PC?

its 20usd on the humble store rn. I'm kinda feeling like buying it for that price... It weould be convenient for when I dont have access to the TV. what sucks is that i'd have to re-unlock characters I want to use

I forgot what the base game went for, I want to say 20 tho, but the deluxe went on sale for a little less than 50usd. Included both character passes

So both Tekken and Injustice are about 5 months away, Capcom better get their shit together and fix their servers, or they will start losing many of their long time players to those games.

GGXrd and KOF14 were supposed to kill of SF5, too. MKX was supposed to kill off USF4.

Fighting games aren't interchangeable.

Is this the week haters will be left behind?

Surprise, haters will never get left behind, because the haters secretly love SF5.

Well, at least maybe I'll learn something from that. Hah. Any advice?

Also, what the fuck is up with these load times?
Click to expand...

I dunno the match that well, maybe more air ex.kunai since they seem pretty reactable vs fireballs? I'd tech less in general too, if you're coming from SF4.

I thought you were on an old PC or something, that was a weird one.

Goddammit.

Had a decent session last night. Fancied a quick game this morning to continue the rush.
Ended up waiting for 5 minutes for a match where I went 0-2 against a super silver Akuma.

Matchmaking too slow. Had to go to work. Been salty the whole time.

Just about got over it after lunch.
Went to the toilet to take a dump and the fucker forms a perfect right-angle "L" shape in the bowl.

God-fucking-dammit.

Karin match-up chart from Packz:



I pretty much agree with this. At my much lower skill level Laura is a big problem, though. I guess he can keep her out for most of the match and knows her strings better. Oh and I do pretty well against Alex. Not sure why he thinks it's only even.
Click to expand...

Probably because he plays against Problem X a lot, who has/had the best Alex in EU. His long range buttons and scary comeback potential make the matchup difficult in the same way Birdie is.

Jiyuna translating the talk Daigo gave to some JP businessmen last week

kinda crazy

highlights: Daigo explained why he plays ryu instead of guile, now talking about how he thought about getting "revenge on society", other life things

There was one part, about 1 minute long, that hat like 40k retweets on Twitter. Any idea where/what that was?

If you go on the PSN store you can still find the holiday bundle for sale. If I had money I'd pick it up just to see what would happen. I really hope they leave up the bundles from now on. That's easy cash.

Neat, V-League player profiles got an update. Mine.

This stuff is really cool.

Edit: Also saw this via Reddit. What's interesting to me about this clip is the purple eye tracker; I didn't know some streamers (or at least this one) had that kind of thing. It'd be an interesting thing to analyze where pro players are looking at on the screen and try to imitate that.

Hi Flux.

Dont suppose I could get a few Mika Tips. Im getting better with her (was using guile but needed a change). Im silver playing casual only and mostly get matched against silver and super silvers. Feels about right for my skill level and prob have about a 40% win ratio at the mo as I am slowly getting to grips with her. However a few things a need work on and I wonder if you could offer your input:

In training mode, I set the dummy to 3 frame jab on wake up and after guard. I find that after a flying peach knock down I can dash then hit either LP or MP to get a counter hit and carry on the damage. However I find often when doing it online it seems to come out to early and misses somehow? the only thing I can think of is maybe they do a backwards wakeup that takes a few frames longer? What do you tend to do in this situation. HP maybe?

Also If I am applying preasure mainly with lp and lk and then maybe mk amd c.mk I always feel compelled to go for the jump in cross up after a bit as I have no real clue what else I can do at that range apart from maybe a charged HK. If I try to dash command grab I tend to get punished everytime.

Im sticking with Mika because while I am better with Guile I find her a ton of fun once you get her combos going. Her come backs can be godly as well.

Holy crap, you've played 15,000 ranked matches Flux?
What level is your Mika? I want to know if anyone has reached level 100 yet, but I don't think so. And it looks like you're playing Birdie now anyway.

edit:
My stats are 1016 ranked matches, Win 508 50.0%, Lose 508 50.0%
Atleast I'm consistent...

I don't get it. I don't see anything in the article feature wise over what SFV does except arcade mode.

I see that it has wireless adhoc apparently.

I saw those two connection symbols in that lobby(?) image and automatically thought "that's better than SFV". But yeah, you're right.

^ Who did you main before? Congrats anyway.

My current stats. I'm free to all the "low tier" characters.

Karin, but being honest here I only played her the first month or so after the game came out an then dropped the game till early December(a week or two before season 2 dropped). The thing that made me the most aggravated was my lack of anti air game. With Guile that changed and I enjoy the game 100x more.

Thank you for the congrats.

My stats show that I've played over 3000 matches. I had no idea I somehow found the time to play that much.

My win rate against platinum players is like 34%. Never going to get to super-plat on that.

I'm an old man, 221/326 ranked matches on V-League. Asked some local friends and they're in the mid-4-digits.

Why are stats so sparse? Does it tap into a CFN API that's only occasionally able to gather match data?

Haha

All day since yesterday I've just been getting my normals stuffed, ducked or they'd straight up miss because season 2 Alex has had his hurtboxes extended, hitboxes cut short and his frame data made worse. This nonsense about Alex having long range buttons and scary comeback potential is straight up bullshit unless we're talking about guys like Problem X, Donpachi, StormKUBO or Gunfight. This character is a fucking garbage heap.

Only the last 100 matches are stored on CFN, so that is all the website has to go by when you first register your account. But after you've registered, it'll update check your profile once a day and collect new matches.
