My games are pretty much lagless as long at it’s 3 to 4 bar connection. 2 bar connections the matches start being choppy and it’s sometimes harder to react to jump ins and mixups. 1 bar is literally unplayable.
What irks me though is that the search system keeps bringing up the same people from spain, brazil, germany and finland with who I have a 1 or 2 bar connection so of course they/I’m going to decline and search for someone else. In SSF4 you could look at all the lobbies and pick the ones with who you have a 3 bar connection. But now you can’t do that except in endless. imo there should be an option that allows to filter our search by connection quality.
That said, I’ve had no issue at all with sound since the last patch. I was pleasantly surprised to see they were able to fix that problem so quickly. And I’m glad it’s no longer present because it was really bugging me.
I don’t notice any additional input delay even when playing with my friends from the U.K.
You all just want to look for more shit to complain about for no reason. Shut the fuck up already or stop playing the game. It’s really quite simple. The netcode is the exact same shit with sound fixes.
I find anedoctal evidence quite amuzing. To me 4 bars are unplayable to the point where i just forfeit the match. Hearing people say they play on 3-4 bars with no problems is disturbing to say the least, because people probably have no clue on telling the difference.
Skullgirls(Skillgirls) will be bought today sir. I look forward to playing you in this game. Okay now back to topic the netcode is booty juice right now lol.
I live in Europe, i only play on 4 bars which are very easily found.
I do feel that there is some input delay, very minor though, felt it even before the patch. I still hit the more timing sensitive combos like it is offline though.
Before and after patch feel the same btw. Shame not everyone has the same experience.
Will try to play more on 3 bars just to see how it feels.
I’ve noticed the opposite as far as the skipping goes. I’ve actually had less skipping, but i can feel a frame or two of input delay. That’s why i think they can adjust the delay, similar to ggpo through patches.
I believe the sound is tied into the net code. When the game rolls back, it has to change the sound to a previous state too and I think its getting lost so it just crashes\glitches when the game goes for the roll back. The more often the game has to roll back, the more likely it causes the sound glitch.
With increased input delay, you can minimize roll backs therefore minimizing how many times someone has to deal with the sound glitch. Probably decreased the sound glitch by 50%. It makes perfect sense thinking about it this way. It explains the immediate answer that fixing the sound would cause more lag and why its not gone, just slightly less triggered
that’s my answer as to why there IS more input delay to the game and I don’t think they’re lying about it. IMO, they cranked it up by 2f. Its not a terribly big deal. What my big deal about this is that a group of scrubs are being listened to as to what creates a good game online and its certainly not more input delay so you can listen to the sounds….and for the record, 2f buffer on skullgirls fucks me up pretty bad. So while some players may say its not a big deal, it is for others and all of this is simply solved by giving us the fucking dialer. Everyone can play under THEIR preferred settings, not this bobo communist net code where everyone gets the same thing.
yea Capcom lies all the time about this and that but if you used GGPO before, you’ll realize that GGPO sometimes also goes through this sound glitch process and it only happens on connections that are rolling back like crazy to begin with. With stable connections or connections with higher input delay, there aren’t that many rollbacks and the sound doesn’t go bat shit.
definitely felt some input delay, but everyting else stayed the same other than the sound … in a bad way.
was still getting dropped inputs and actually felt more than normal. i’m pretty much done with this game since most leveling up and matchup knowledge for me is learned playing online. this game just isn’t fun to me online due to the shitty online experience.
i just felt all around more lag, in that every thing that could feel worse did … but my sound worked.
sucks too because the mechanics in this game are pretty fun to me.
After playing more matches post-patch I’m starting to believe that there is more lag. I’m experiencing less frame skipping than before which could be that Capcom increased the lag buffer by a bit. It’s still ways better than sf4 but considering how I got used to the sound glitch I’m a bit disappointed. At this point the best solution would be giving us the option to control how much input lag we want.
And that’s exactly why we won’t be getting it. Why on earth would Capcom wanna give us the best solution when they can continue to make stupid compromises for a couple more patches, lol?
Its too risky to let the common player adjust anything in game when it comes to such important matters as internets! /sarcasm
I had more dropped inputs than ever before, I do my Kazuya electric combo
I see command, f, df+MP, f,df+MP but no EWGF just a empty wavedash. Okay, or all the time when I cr. mk into a special, the cr. mk drops and the special comes out.
The stage seems to matter a lot more now. The ridiculous stage that is to the left of the training stage (I don’t know what it is called) is really bad.
Ok so I’m just gonna cut to the chase. To make a long story short, I was playing a match online yesterday with my Bob/Law team against a random Kaz/Jin team. I won the match and afterwards I get hatemail for “quitting the match”. Naturally, I was confused and thought the guy was a moron and/or possibly trolling. So I go to my replay list,check the win/loss and of course, it says I won. That is until I actually watched the replay. The FUCING thing recorded almost a completely match than what took place. In the match I was playing I K.O.'d him with a juggle after a tag cancel. In the replay it shows hims K.O.-ing me with a throw. Yet, the replay list still says I won. I cant even begin to wrap my head around the fucery that is going on right now. This is not the first time something like this has happened. I’ve mentioned this before and was met with replies along the lines of “get better internet” (I <3 you SRK). But in all seriousness, anybody had this issue or anything similar?
