For your "bet," I suppose it would. Another one lost.

It's better than nothing, honestly. This means they are actively looking at the S2 changes that people don't like, and are on track to fix the netcode. It might be Spring, but at least there's a general timeframe.
I guess a CPT and DLC posts are next. Hopefully we can get more information about arcade and extra battle.
Fuck you Harrison it's 9 something at night on a Thursday you know you don't update this blog stuff unless it's Wednesday.

Seems spring is just for the CFN stuff, that's fine. Gimme a character though.

Generally spring starts in March, but it could mean April so 30 or so days.
I guess its good to hear another affirmation of server improvement.

You know what, Capcom? Double or nothing. DLC and CPT event stuff next week with a roadmap.
Let's go.
I really think they have the changes mostly implemented and just want to see how the meta plays out for another month.
So whatever Jav needs to do, he'd better do it soon.

I have a full plate but I'll get seconds if they adhere to my bet.
You hear me Capcom?! Do it you cowards!
I'll eat anything for these DLC characters Jesus Christ.
Two more months of broken online YAY!!!!
I guess there are certain implications with the balance patch bit, but it's too vague. Could mean they'll make adjustments to the outliers to normalize the balance sooner than later, though.
Looking at the V-League "tier list" stats of the top 100 players, Akuma, Alex, FANG, Mika are in the bottom 4. Not surprising. Ibuki's there as part of the bottom 5, though, which I found a bit unusual. Top 4 is Necalli, Cammy, Bison and Chun-Li, which isn't surprising either.

Spring, really? So months of nothing until then?
Cool, that'll be the earliest point at which I'll even think about buying any more DLC. The fuck happened to trying to communicate better?
Heh, not sure Chun-Li would be one of the characters getting an "emergency balance patch," if such a thing were to happen.

At least tournament diversity is gonna be a thing either way.
You just won't see Alex, FANG, or Nash.

God dammit. My gaming time is so limited I finally break free of grown up responsibilities and can't even play. I am this close to just getting into Guilty Gear. It's like every other time I play I have issues.
At this point, I genuinely think they need a complete overhaul/re-release and fresh start. There's too much bad blood with the game already.
yeah I have thought about it too. is it known how much the upgrade to rev 2 is going to cost?
f2p launch would be good. that's just me though.

We don't know yet but it's approximately $20 U.S. for Japan I believe. I expect $15-$20. I bought the game for $20 from Amazon but have barely touched it because it's just a distraction from getting better at SF. Reading some of the posts above mine though it looks like they are finally fixing some shit?

A year is about how long it took MKX to fix their online, and they're backed by Warner Brothers budget.
So spring this sounds about right.
And yet, if they hadn't said anything, people would have been 100% delighted, I'm sure.

They communicated that they have big plans to fix shit in the spring, and that they are open to balance changes due to community feedback. What's left is the CPT and DLC stuff. They need to address the QoL and missing features, and where everything is coming. Even if it's piddly blogposts with little bits of information spread around, it's better than nothing.
No one is going to be happy until the content is in their hands either way, so it's best to just keep people as informed as possible. That, to me, shows that they are actually listening to people's complaints on certain issues and want to fix the game. Or, is the first step to fixing it.
I know people want the netcode to be corrected and fixed right outta the gate, but I'mma let them do what they have to do. If it's shit, I'll just play another game until the servers get better. Are KOF servers fine now? I remember them having an issue.

Pax South starts tomorrow, right? Anyone think that Capcom might say something there?
It's more like it's a lose-lose situation of their own doing. The only thing they can do now that will make people (rightfully) content is to actually fix their shit.

Just fucking buff, Capcom

Guys like Bonchan might get Nash to a few top 8s and maybe even grand finals, but those three will probably be mostly absent at large tournaments. They will probably have the odd appearances here and there in top 32 and top 16.

If I complete stuff like survival mode while offline it will still net me FM when it eventually gets back online right?

Nope.

Actually yes, the game should ask you now if you want to log in at the end of survival.
Ace Harding

Will it mark it complete but then never give me the FM? Or if I do it again while online I will get the FM? It can't be the former.
And Alex too, yeah, the Deejay way. They obviously learned !

Edit: I misread. It's the second thing you said.
Ace Harding

Right, but let's say I complete a new survival round while offline, it marks it as complete with the little bookmark and I don't get FM. If I go online at a later date and complete the same survival again will then get the FM?
Basically am I missing out on the FM forever if complete one while offline? That would be ridiculous so I'm assuming that's not the case.
Edit:
Got it, thanks.

I still haven't had a chance to really play this since the December update (peak season was busy as fuck), but reading the last couple of pages it seems like everyone is down on the game. What gives? Were the balance changes garbage like most Capcom balance changes?

If you complete it again, you'll get the fight money.
