Didn't they improve that immediately? I want to say these framedrops were adressed early on.

Every new background is 60fps. It's not a CPU thing. It's Capcom's optimization.

I want to like it so badly, but the gameplay is definitely not my thing
It's a great effort to revive the series and the developers have done a great job, but I don't find the combo system fun at all. I'm haunted by the fact that I can't be a badass cheerleader Riptor main...I want to like it so badly, but the gameplay is definitely not my thing
Same.
And I think the game looks like cancer for the eyes. And the music is cancer for the ears.
Basically it assaults every sense I have except smell.
Glad others can enjoy it, though.

It's the opposite for me actually. I think the music is fantastic (MICK GORDON!!) and the particle effects get insane in those intense long combo situations.
The character models could definitely look better though.
Plus I love how practically every character is so damn wacky.
EDIT: Though I can see why one might not like the insane, balls-to-the-wall style and aesthetic of the game.
I had no idea the PS4 version doesn't/didn't hold 60fps.
For sure, I see the appeal, and I'm glad it's successful and doing well. Just not for me.
I have a few friends who are getting gaming pcs built that want to play, though, and since I own s1 and s2 and love fighters, I'll probably put some time in eventually.
It's always been my theory that it's the reason there's so much rollback. If the PC version is holdilng 60fps and the PS4 is dropping even a few frames at random, that can't be good for this type of netcode, right?
I'm just pulling that logic out of my ass, but seems right to me!
Yeah, it really is ugly as sin. I do wish that the games that get things like the netcode and matchmaking right (KI, Skullgirls) I found more fun to play.
Yeah, hate skullgirls art, too.
Shame that these smaller games are showing up the bigger ones.
Aesthetics are extremely important to me when it comes to a fighting game I want to devote hundreds of hours to. Killer Instinct, to me, is so ugly and just boring looking that I couldn't truly spend that much time wanting to play it.
Hisako's really cool, though. And the music is fantastic.

Art is probably the most important thing in a fighter to me. It's why I'll never play those anime loli fighters even if they're technically amazing.

To be fair, it's one of the few buttons in the game that's actually good for whiff punishing.
Give everyone better ranged normals in 2017 please, I miss footsies

Not entiiiirely true. Games that have more situational variables have more situational combos. thinking like wall/floor breaks, starting position versus wall combos in Tekken, weight dependent and height dependent combos in Guilty Gear.
Streetfighter by its nature has a limited space for these things, and folks are always going to go for the most optimised combo that's viable.

Though they already are pretty good IMO, certain characters are just much better at it than others.

All characters across the board have shorter/slower neutral buttons than SF4, as well as the input lag issue. You see top level players whiffing shit that would have got them murdered in SF4.
I hadn't played much Battle Lounge because I want that million FM trophy, but thanks to the challenge this week, I tried it out. There's some real killers on there. I ran into a zero rank Ken player who was super defensive, and I couldn't figure out how to make him twitch. Dash up throw got tech'd, but dash up jabs got blocked, and eventually I just ran into a buffered normal into death. Good stuff to that dude.
This is known.
Street fighter 5 looks great too, aside from face issues.
I like tekken 7's look better though, i'm a sucker for trying to bring anime into realism.

Ken's face aside, the hair and clipping on some of the cast bothers me the most in V.
I think V is a lovely looking game.

V really shines on high-end PC systems. There are modders who have even attempted to fix hair clipping with physics mods, at least with Laura.
It looks terrible on the Vs. screen but looks fine in most other situations. They should really just give him a different pose instead of a whole new face.

I cringe whenever someone non-ironically picks the story costume for Ken. Dude looks like he hasn't touched a toothbrush in years.

I honestly think, a few odd faces or quirks aside, Street Fighter V is a beautiful game. The stuff they've done with the models, the lighting, the effects, and especially the animations are a generation ahead of Street Fighter IV. And on PC at 1440p/60+ FPS that shit is *chef finger kiss*

another great thing about the PC version is the ability to turn off Ono's waaaaaaaacky NPCs
The Lair of the Four Kings is much cooler without ninjas and jetpacks and weird robots running around

Yes, my fave stage and I'm jealous of those that get that PLUS the better modded lighting.
They should just provide NPC-free variants of every stage (which they're almost doing already).

Buzz Lightyear improves that stage tenfold

He has bangs and a pony tail for maximum barfage, and his model looks weird in the gi because it obviously wasn't built with it in mind like Ryu was.

SF3 Ken's face with SF5 Ken's costume would be absolutely incredible.

I think V's aesthetic completely shits on IV's, maybe its a matter of taste though.
