Shockeh posted:"Online Rematch Option - Salty from a close loss online? Want revenge? Players can now play a 2/3 set in Ranked Match, provided both players accept the rematch." I actually think this feature will be used lots, especially as the game ages and the casual playerbase leaves.

Arzachel posted:I thought that's probably for their server backend but nope, real time p2p multiplayer. So much for "we're not licensing GGPO because we're writing our own netcode!" P2p just means how clients connect to each other, not how they communicate once connected. It's just a back end to connect clients together through socket management and connection pools after first connecting to a server. The net code is completely separate and not handled by the service.

They didn't out source it. They licenced an existing technology to handle the server technology. Loads of companies do this. This isn't the software that handles game inputs and rollback. Capcom are responsible for that code themselves, so are directly to blame or praise depending on you feelings.

Well just got the game at last and Christ you guys weren't lying about wait times for playing ranked. It's pretty poor. I don't believe it's got anything to do with playerbase either. Sf4 had lots of time with less than 2000 players on pc at certain points during its life and finding a game was still easy.

bebaloorpabopalo posted:It is literally not functional. All of my matches have one-sided rollback, the majority of them on my side. As a PC user it is basically guaranteed you are hosed playing vs somebody on PS4. Even when it is playable, the amount of rollback is far greater than it would be on correctly implemented rollback (any game with GGPO) and happens on one side. I'm on PC and the majority of my matches are great. Some are complete trash and that's annoying but I've got far more issue with the PS4 players slow rear end HDDs than anything else. I'm not saying your experience isn't true but statements like 'guaranteed' isn't from my experience. This issue wouldn't be so bad if you could just pick your ranked games like you could in SFIV. It was easy to remember the players with the dodgy Internet and you could just avoid them. Mega Comrade fucked around with this message at 10:57 on Mar 25, 2016 |

Ryuga Death posted:I have an odd issue with SF5 where it will play normally at 60 fps when I first boot it up but then after a while, the performance will degrade and then the game will start playing in a bit of slow mode. Is there a way to fix this? My PC specs are i5 4570, gtx 970, 16gb ram, and win7 64bit. The slowmo is due to the game being fixed-framed. It wont skip frames, if you are rendering below 60 frames it will wait until it renderes all those frames its behind, causing the slow-mo effect. There is a known memory leaked caused when changing graphical settings, other than that, try reinstalling? You can use steams inbuilt fps counter to keep track of stuff.

Yeah, Evo is a big event and is covered by a lot of the big games news outlets, its dicussed in podcasts and online, clip videos trend on youtube etc. You generally see a spike in sales for all the major games featured.

Constellation I posted:Yeah, it's super dumb. It's Capcom, so it's par for the course for them in terms of mismanagement, but still. People are still buying into the narrative that it was done so that it coincides with the Pro Tour, when there were so many ways to work around that. The first premiere event could have easily been CEO or Combo Breaker or something. Considering we have a big gap now where it's all ranking events till May, they could have easily delayed it till then if that was a real reason. Top and actual FG players wouldn't have really given a poo poo since most would just be practicing the cracked beta or playing other FG's until release. Casuals would have gotten a more polished game that probably included arcade mode and a real tutorial. It was probably Japanese executives hearing about the success of early access and misconstruing it to mean you can just release a product early and add stuff later and people don't mind.

Buckwheat Sings posted:It's crazy how bargain bin Capcom is becoming. First Konami, now this. Capcom have made a lot of huge IP gently caress ups over the last few years. Almost every new IP they have tried has failed and they have managed to kill off many well known and popular IPs. At this point Capcom have 3 main titles, Resident Evil, Street Fighter and Monster Hunter and while they pull in a decent chunk of cash they aren't enough to support a company of Capcoms size. While Konami was a demise through not caring, Capcoms was over ambition which has now turned to trying to limp through with spending as little as possible.

darealkooky posted:gaming as an industry has roughly a quadraillion more people buying products now than in the early 90's tho, and the ps4 is selling really well + everyone has PC Hmm SF2 hit into some vein back then though, it was like Call of Duty big, it just blew up out of no where. Street Fighter 4 also came at a perfect time, there hadn't been a major decent fighting game in years. SFV came off the back of the several editions of 4, and no one was really asking for it except ther hardcore. I think even if Capcom had put out a complete good product at launch and had 10/10 across the board they wouldn't have hit their sale estimates.

Dias posted:Not on Steam, you have to add the guy and he has to accept, etc. But that's because of Steam, not because Capcom is smart. After the switch to Steamworks from GFWL, USF4 worked the same way. Pretty sure it's still easy as gently caress to ragemessage on PSN and XBL. I used to think this about steam until I noticed you could message people in CS:GO, its not some in game system either, just straight up opens a chat window to them. So why most other games don't do it I don't know. Seeing as Capcom make you pick a unique fighter name they 'could' implement some kind of messaging system, but I doubt its a high priority for them.

I treat the rage quits ad a badge if honour, take wouldn't that you caused someone to act like a baby and you will find it less annoying. Rematches are another thing I've found slow down once in silver. I did however get a very classy upper Gold bison yesterday who played me a full set even though he would win 5 points but lose 95. He also picked up on when my stick came out and stopped attacking until I was moving again. So hats off to you random Bison dude.

Srice posted:I don't think any shooter is gonna be able to replicate CS:GO's success anytime soon. It had a very unusual surge in popularity at some point down the line after an okay launch and it just exploded and kept growing. Agreed Counter Strike is a unique beast with a very large appeal due to its history. A lot of people who play and watch CSGO are the same people who were playing 1.6 in College. CSGO is also focused towards competitiveness, while I'm sure Overwatch will have a scene it doesn’t seem that is Blizzards main focus.

Calling Mika cheap does seem unfair, most of her stuff is a huge gamble for her. I think the hate towards her is that no matter how good you are it always feels inevitable that you at some point will get put in the corner and have to play the guessing game, its just very frustrating. Even when I win against her I feel drained after. This is probably my atonement for maining Viper in 4.

Tae posted:I've gotten so many 3-4 bars when I specifically said to have 5 bars only. What the gently caress. This is caused by people who have bad connections rather than just being far away from you. So when the server pings them they return a low number, say 50. The server slaps a 5 bar rating on them and passes their connection to you, what the server doesn't know is they are running wireless/downloadingPorn or whatever and their ping is fluctuating between 50-200 constantly, it just happened to be 50 when they tested it. You can check this yourself, open up windows cmd prompt and just run ping google.co.uk (or whatever your local domain is) and see your numbers. If you get a very small fluctuation you're golden, if its a large one then it might in fact be you causing the problems. Mega Comrade fucked around with this message at 18:53 on Apr 15, 2016 |

Spiritus Nox posted:So I got a new 1440p monitor and now SFV runs at half speed? Even when I set the resolution to 1080p like it was before? You're not hitting 60FPS. The game is locked to 60fps, so it will enter slowmo mode if it dips. Steam has a built in FPS counter, use that and mess with settings. I suggest the waterfall stage as that's the most taxing on hardware. Make use of the inbuilt resolution scaler, it allows you to keep 1440p resolution but have the models ingame rendered at lower resolution and scaled up, it works really well and allows you to keep crisp menus and text.

Jack Trades posted:What. The. gently caress. This doesn't surprise me, It's actually a problem that's difficult to solve. As the game is p2p it can be tricky to tell who actually disconnected. It's solved in a lot of other games via checking against the rest of the clients but in fighting games there are only 2. For people exiting to the playstation dashboard you could do a server check to see if the game is still running, possible identifying who quit out but on PC where it's easy to simply cut the connection very briefly it would be a really challenging to identify who actually committed the offence.
