For a lot of people, not clicking with the current street fighter for whatever reason means being stuck online. Yeah but that disinterest lies in the hands of the people. Complaining does even less than it would normally do. I will say 90% of the American Guilty Gear scene consists of complaining that people don't play Guilty Gear. The other 10% is Waifu chat. Potemkin is the best.

Get a refund and then wait it out a year to see if the game is up to your specific standard. Problem solved?

A big part of the reason why I'm mostly playing this lately is simply because of the sheer number of people playing. Even though the battle lounges are totally broken, I can still find a reasonably competent random European, or ask someone on my FL, pretty quickly. Xrd is getting to the point where you need to ask IRC / Discord / FL to get any decent matches. Most randoms are honestly terrible and I don't like beating on them. At one point I was trying to get matches of AC+r and any KoF game by just having them all open on my other monitor and waiting for a single person with a playable connection to join.  I'd play other games if there was anyone playing them, but it's just a chore finding people.

Not really interested in spending £70+ pound on a stick that I'll only be using once a fortnight. The only other games for 360 are 3rd strike and super turbo, and I'm not really interested in going out to play 1 dude in ST, unless it's while I'm waiting for a match of sf4 / sf5.

Unless you're playing for money, play what you loving like. I've been playing blaze blue and xrd instead of this game and somehow both actually have people playing, hell I've even had fun. The only thing that changes is the number of people who are entirely poo poo just dramatically decreases as the games life goes on. There is no perfect fighter and having your standards set at good = I have fun and few things in this experience of an overall game ruin that. The issue is you guys are having a jaded old fighting gamer discussion in a thread full of people asking basic poo poo, because they just casually are jumping into fighters and don't understand at all what you're bitching about. It's not common in life to enjoy things and hate them, and there's more of a problem in you if you can't connect that not everyone you speak to will have that magic number of years playing to understand FGC bad, vs gaming at large bad vs good. I even get what you guys are saying and still find this poo poo agitating. Edit- as for 'well only me and x people in x area play' online sf5 the only thing that changes is the number of matches you have where you're entirely wiping the floor with some 12 year old kid who doesn't understand why sometimes his fireball turns into an srk. If you go to locals, thats a different discussion and fair but you've gotta directly mention the population, not at all clear to dudes who aren't familiar with much besides sf.

Same with SFV; I can understand people not preferring it compared to other games, but if a ton of people find it fun and it expands the FGC even more, then good. dangerdoom volvo posted:why would you [read a thread] that you dont even like We're trying to improve it by asking you to stop being a shitposter?

oddly i'm in camp dissatisfied with the game, but not because of technical things, but mostly being shipped an unfinished game. I'm cool with whats here from a technical point and will always play multiple games, but I really wish there were meat, 3 person lobbies and juri.

Like there's a lot of games I don't like like Assassins Creed cuz I feel their annual release schedule kinda encourages games to be  cash ins every year but you don't see me going into their threads and making the same 3 complaints about it for months on end, I just don't buy them

Just to reiterate. Fighting game community bad isn't the same bad like superman 64 and it's going over a lot of your heads. Its like when a fighter is serviceable or fun but has stupid things that usually polarize gameplay toward that thing at a certain level of play and beyond. Like DHC glitch in marvel 3 vanilla. There's also just things not being as good as they could.

Does Chun have some sort of weakness in this matchup that I'm too bad to see? You win if you knock her down once. It's in Chun's favor 100% for sure, but it's not unwinnable. Grapplers struggle against characters with fireballs and long limbs.

It really seems like the fastest way to get random matches is to just to just sit in the main menu with Fight Request on. I also really wish you could select different people for Ranked and Casual match-ups. I don't mind having to set a character to avoid character select, but let me choose a different person for each mode. Welp those are my requests Capcom, back to losing with Gief.
