I don't think Capcom can ever fix the loading time

[Smashbro29]

The loading isn’t real loading, it’s got something to do with the always online component.

I assume you are playing on PS4?

PC with ssd, I’m accustom to short loading. offline doesn’t seem too bad. but online is just to long makes me not want to play the game.

Loading doesn’t seem to be a big problem with this game.

Bloodborne had extremely long loadingtimes and was fixed with a patch.

google it.

OK i google it, bloodburne after patch shave 10 to 20 from 40 to 50 seconds on average. while SF5 is at 1.5 minutes at best online. honestly I don’t have high hope even if they shave 30 seconds its still too long for a fighting game

It’s a lot more severe than just 10-20 seconds. Loading at launch took a better part of a minute and now are down to about 10 seconds. It literally broke the game to the point where I stopped playing until the patch was implemented.

On PC my loading times aren’t bad in SFV

What pisses me off is that there’s a MINIMUM ENFORCED waiting time on the PC version. I’m not talking about PC vs. PS4 cross-play but just in general you have to wait for that mini loading tune to complete before the screen transitions to the actual fight. USF4 also had this but it was much shorter. I wonder how much shorter it’d be if they removed that for PC vs. PC matches.

USF4 on my PC SSD takes 12 seconds to load the characters after you’ve selected them
SF5 on my PC SSD takes 14 seconds to load the characters after you’ve selected them
SF5 on my PS4 SSD takes 14 seconds too.

I’m not sure what people are complaining about here.

What a silly comparison. That’s comparing the PS4 version to the PC version and includes the start up screen. That’s stupid.

What? you don’t completely exit the game after every match!?!?

Only when I lose.

Right, but this is exactly why it’s fixable. They just need to change how your client is communicating with the server! There are many other games running matchmaking/online infrastructure of this type, so it’s just a shit implementation. I would be astonished if they didn’t significantly improve it within the first year.

It does take a long ass time between fights. I think it’s longer for us in Oz due to crappy net. But seriously it can take about a min to go from new challenger screen to the fight. After completing the fight and returning to the previous mode it takes heaps longer… I think it’s due to uploading results, then downloading updated zenny and whatnot.

Kills me a little bit inside every time though.

Just make your battle lounge have sets like first to 2 or more. Rematch is instant.

Agreed with battle lounge but there are two problems with that as well. First, the rematches still take about 10-15 seconds to load. Second, and most annoying, is the fact that you can’t filter by region. As a midwest US player anyone outside of North America is unplayable unless you enjoy SlideShow Fighter.

Rematch is like 5 seconds for me.

I really don’t have a beef with my ps4’s loading times. I also don’t sit and stare at my tv waiting for casuals/ranked searches to take place; and I dont pick up my controller until I hear the stage music start.

[Projectjustice]

I practice my guitar when im waiting. lol

ITT:

ADD generation doesn’t need good programming for AAA current-gen games

[Projectjustice]

What i dont understand are players that come into my room with 1 bar connections and they still wanna play like we offline. Like WTF is up with that? Its mainly PC players too, bunch of dummies over there.

[ReddChief]

Somethings wrong with your system if loading times are a problem unless 5-10 seconds is too much but this is gamers we are talking about so that’s probably it…facepalm, you know alot of the long wait (lol) is CONNECTING to a player ONLINE also.

[cmt]

so fucking tired of this stupid sfv. after every damn match i need to “connect” 2 minutes to the menu and after search 30 minutes for 1 game

[Super_Sonic]

The loading thing is most noticeable when I have fight request on and I was just messing around in training mode while waiting. When you go back into training mode after a match it takes at least 40 seconds just to get back into that. SF4 took like 5 seconds

This! I hate that the game has to reboot the stage one more time after a Ranked Match to get me into Training.

I’m curious to why the “New Challenger” interruption event doesn’t occur during the VS screen or even in the character select screen. The older Tekken games didn’t allow the option to interrupt during VS screen, but outside of that, most SF games had the option to interrupt during the VS screen. It just makes the process of getting a match take longer than one would expect.
