Ultra Street Fighter IV |OT| What is old is new once again
- Thread starter Kadey
- Start date
It looks to me that the game was designed using GFWL as it's core for the online portion and as such going from that to steamworks without doing a very large change to it (and they didn't) will not provide the desired results. I did pre-order the

It was showing 1PM tomorrow it got changed recently to 7PMest
IKR, I don't hold out any hope they'll put up keys today.
Well, booted up AE on PC one last time to mess about in Training Mode and just check if my arcade stick was still okay. And of course see the Super Street Fighter 4 intro movie one final time.
I'm so rusty and it's not like I was much good to begin with. I mean, I know I used to do some newbish LP Shouoken into HP Shouoken combo with Sakura to really move the opponent across the screen, but I just can't hit it now. Ah, well, Shouoken is getting a new hitbox in two hours, so it'd be silly to hack it out now, at least.
I'm thinking of trying out some Elena and maybe Hugo, at least. Any newbie tips for those? (Especially if the tip is "Don't.")

Don't jump with Hugo.
...it's like seeing an elephant jump.
I've tried to contain my jumping habit anyway. Shoryukens to the face is bad for you.

If you won't be playing online then why would you have to buy xbl?
Anyway, no I don't think it's worth it. But I don't think any fighting game is worth buying unless you're playing against someone.

I played vanilla SF4 for years offline only doing arcade mode, trials, and training mode. I also had people to play locally, but I still put over 100 hours into that version doing just that. I guess it'd depend on you.
Regarding GMG: I just sent in a ticket to GMG to see if I could get a refund and just buy it directly from Steam. Here's the response:
Looks like we'll be waiting a little longer.
EDIT: Same dude just made a post on the GMG forums:
Yay?
Move your ass Karl!
Made sure my ports were still right and played some rounds. Played a guy with the name of Brush My Teeth With Your Dick. Interesting. He bodied me, but something real goofy happened in one match. The game seemed to speed up at times in one round. It would judder back and forth but it was like we were moving at 2 times speed at a couple points. Just weird shit. I really hope Ultra does something to improve this.

So the Ultra net code is just as bad as the AE one on Steam?
As I read it, the game will still be Arcade Edition when you launch it, but the name in the library will be Ultra. To actually turn it into Ultra you need the upgrade DLC. So you will be launching Ultra Street Fighter 4 off your list to play Arcade Edition if you haven't gotten the DLC upgrade.
I take it that there's very few games that have DLC that actually turns it into another game, so Steam simply isn't set up to handle that.
I can't find you. Link your url, we can play.
Can't wait to jump back into SF4, been holding off playing for ages. Hope everything is smooth on launch.

Any news on trials?
Yup. I prefer this way though. I hate that the digital version on 360 still has all the AE labeling, intro and title screen.

Yeah I meant I won't pay for Xbox live, and thus, will only be playing single player.
I just picked it after work, bought the Brady guide too on a whim
I own Street Fighter IV and Super Street Fighter IV Arcade Edition on Steam. Can someone tell me if buying Ultra Street Fighter IV (Not the Upgrade Edition) will give me a separate executable/icon on Steam because I prefer to leave my Super Street Fighter IV Arcade Edition steam copy in it's current state. Thanks!
The name will be changed to Ultra anyway. You might get a new entry on your list, but you'll "own" two copies of Ultra Street Fighter IV.

I updated the character select screen mod I posted a couple days ago, this one actually works with the character select when you go online and I added Third Strike and ST versions.

Try restarting Steam. It's unlocked now.

Is the Ultra update on PC, netcode wise?
No problem guys! Let me know if it works with the new Ultra update because I wasn't aware that it's actually live right now. My mod should work hopefully.

You guys saying it's unlocked, is this just a pre-load or the actual game is playable now once downloaded?
Seems to be out now... Goddamn now there's no longer a pre-order option. I was supposed to have until the store update tomorrow to mull over it. No pre-order content.
