the fact that you can give anyone a gun feels like it should be broken but it is balanced by it taking goddamn minutes to pull the gun out...

Also how the gently caress do I do stage transitions?

For those of you who were worried about the PC scene dying:



Obviously day one numbers have no indication of who's going to stick around or not, but I'd say that doing 1.5x SF's all time high on PC is a pretty good indication that a shitload of people own the game and it'll probably have a decently populated scene stick around.

Yeah that all-time peak is pretty great, good job everyone.

I dunno why people are so worried about a dying scene already. Are people just nervous after what's happened with SF5?

So I just entered a tournament, made it to the semi final when the host got eliminated and just left, causing the tournament to cancel. Seems like that might be a pretty common problem, hopefully it won't ruin tournaments.

If you get this on PC I advice deactivating chromatic aberration and film grain filters, unless you like your games to look blurry and dirty. Users/*user*/AppData/Local/TekkenGame/Saved/Config/WindowsNoEditor/ and open up ‘Scalability.ini’. In the blank file paste:
[PostProcessQuality@2]
r.SceneColorFringeQuality=0
r.Tonemapper.GrainQuantization=0

[PostProcessQuality@3]
r.SceneColorFringeQuality=0
r.Tonemapper.GrainQuantization=0

save and set file to read only.

I highly recommend doing this, some stages really crank up the CA and it makes things look really low res in my opinion. If you want a preview of how turning it off looks you can look at the infinite azure stage and compare to others.

since this is just editing a .ini file for graphics settings this shouldn't cause any harm online, like getting people banned (does Namco even do this idk) will it

No you aren't changing any of the game code, it's just a finer control over graphics options that already exist.

What is the deal with EWGF? Is there a one frame window to getting it or anything like that?

I don't think it's 1-frame but it's tight. If you mess up you get a weaker version of the move without the lightning effect, which has less block advantage and worse combo followups.

A lot of people are having this issue - not sure if there's a fix.

E: harada san says try playing via warmup mode rather than looking at the match list, not sure if that's helpful.

Atp said that the steam version is the best version of the game. Doubt it'll die on PC apparently the online play is better as well as the loading times are shorter.

why did they decide to lock almost all the customization stuff behind one player modes

tag 2 did that a lil bit but it feels like I have way less options, not that I really need any besides floral shirt/beach fun akuma

def something screwy with netplay on this game. I can't get a single game to launch online in without connection being lost on pc or xbone. Nat is open so that's not the issue. I can get a game running between two devices on the same network but after one round the game desyncs and dumps us back to the lobby. Not too mad since I got the game for free but it would be nice to have a working product to review.

Been playing through the character episodes and it's really making me wish that they'd done something with the main story similar to the last Dead or Alive. InnDoA you've got the big dramatic storyline with the ninja clan, or in this game, the drama with the Mishima's and G Corp on one side and then a few more light hearted bits from the tournament showcasing the characters that aren't involved in the main story.

I got the game today on PS4, and I can only get into matches by joining tournaments at the moment. That works every time without fail, thankfully. I wanted to try out some of the new characters, but the waiting and loading time in tournaments is a bit much, especially when you're no good with any of the new characters and you get beaten in the first leg of the tourney. I've since then switched to the one character I don't suck at (though with no bound, I'm doing super low damage) only to run into someone who's one step ahead of me in the finals.

While it would be nice to get some consistent matches going so I could actually learn how to play against people again, I'm really happy with how the game feels, and I've had fun trying out the new characters. :)

Add my PSN: Demmonaz, see if we can connect, maybe. Having the same problem you are.

also just play tournaments in general depending on tourney size and placing you can net like minimum 300k fight money and if you win the prize scales with number of fights, we just ran a 5 man double elim in the discord and first place was 2 million

the only problem with tournaments is you can't set the matches to best of 3, its stuck on best of 1
