It just seems to me like a decision that doesn't really benefit people interested in either of the modes :shrug:

There was no decision, adding omega to the edition select option is the lowest effort way to implement it (and best imo)

We definitely need to do an edition select tournament so I guess I'll set that up soon. I'm gonna be so boring with vanilla Ryu it's gonna be awesome. Bebop is gonna win with vanilla Honda or something dumb like that.

You made a fine post for yourself. ...For a casualry, I suppose.
Huh, E.Ryu gets a pretty cool new hadoken that shoots straight up and then falls down diagonally like Akuma's air hadoken. He also gets new target combos and his EX axe kick is now a 2-bar EX that doesn't knock down and has some property that I can't parse because I don't know the Japanese terminology at all (says 中段始動 which might mean that you can special cancel out of it, or maybe not).

As far as I can tell that means an overhead you can combo off of, or an overhead to start a combo. Google translate gives me "middle starting" and videos of combos starting with overheads!

Hey ya'll the Vacation Costume Pack is finally on a bit of a sale as part of the current Steam shenanigans. If you're planning on picking it up you still might want to hold off for a few days anyway since the DLC for a game tends to get a deeper discount at the same time the game itself gets one for being a daily or flash sale or whatever. I'm not exactly expecting USF4 to be a daily sale game this time around but I guess you never know for sure!

Didn't Ultra come with all the costumes or was that just a preorder bonus?

It was a preorder bonus, and they didn't release the Vacation pack until after Ultra dropped.

If you buy Ultra as standalone, it comes with all the costumes(except for Vacation). The upgrade from AE doesn't include costumes.
The preorder bonus was the fantasy costume pack for the new characters.

i debate your definition of fine

played with a friend in endless private with no open slots and it was a slow mess followed by the game promptly giving up and dying on the second round, consistently. Tried playing with different people and it was still pretty bad but I was able to at least finish an equally as lovely match with another guy. Endless private does not work fine, it barely works at all and those are the only conditions I even attempted to play the game under, I shudder to think what the gently caress happens if you try and play the game without taking the steps beforehand, probably sets your drat computer on fire.

It's pretty well accepted that USF4 PC endless private works without issues. Do your friends have issues with other people in endless private? Are you playing with people out of the country? Did you make sure frame rate is set to fixed and vsync is off? Is your computer a piece of poo poo? Is your internet a piece of poo poo? I don't know what to tell you but endless private isn't the center of complaints for USF4 PC.

Valle plays mainly on PC, but sometimes on 360.

Yeah PC USF4 endless lobby is my preferred way to play at the moment. Any network issues that exist between me and another dude on there are gonna exist on 360 as well (I get the same weird rear end lag spikes every 4th match or so between me and Buhbuhj regardless of platform)

If you're having additional issues with someone that you normally have no problem playing with on a console you should both check your network and game settings. Reminder to set framerate to Fixed instead of variable and for the love of god turn off the in-game Vsync implementation.

Is there some study on in game vs driver-lebel v sync? How could it be any different than the game calling a function to turn on v sync as implemented at the driver level?

I haven't heard anything bad about vsync in this game before, what problems does it cause?

Vsync by nature adds a minimum amount of input lag, different implementations can add more. Driver-level vsync is always most efficient so you should use it in every game.

I actually prefer just to play with vsync off and try to jack up the frame rate to 120 so that there is never any tearing on my 60hz monitor. Does this make sense?

It's probably not problematic for everyone (at least not in the same way) since PC configs can be so different but the in-game implementation doesn't buffer frames as efficiently/correctly as it should and you can end up with an input lag of a couple of frames a lot of the time. It's really really noticeable for me when it's turned on vs. when it's turned off - for a long time I really hated the PC port of vanilla cause it just felt "bad" to play vs. playing xbox, even just training mode, until someone clued me in that Vsync is probably the difference.
