Online Edition Patch Thread

Unmapping buttons already exists. It’s been pointed out numerous times. Press select.

Also, i was messing around today in training mode with the 3p macro doing ex tourou with Yang. Roughly every 20 or so times ex wouldnt come out. Don’t know if its the same with ps2 but thought it was weird.

can the dropped ex inputs be related to the timing being slightly off? I know when I go crouching short into Makoto’s EX overhead thing, if I time it wrong it comes out as a normal overhead. more noticeable online for me personally. will the game output a normal special instead of an ex special if the timing is weird, even if you time the button presses simultaneously?

yep i agree that a lot of the “nice to have” things should really be fixed, and i’d already let him know that. the “must have” category just provides a baseline of what the patch should include, and doesn’t mean that we only care about those things, because it’s just a minimum bar.

those two things in particular you mentioned should’ve been under “must have”, i just missed them (there’s a shit ton of shit). i’ve updated him via email.

Yea. Lots of stuff to be fixed… I pray that the most important stuff gets addressed. I remember when the first patch came out one of the things they fixed was Hugo’s trial lol.

Online drops a ton of inputs. I’m talking about offline using the 3p macro and ex moves still drop. It’s strange.

Honestly the majority of the focus should be on the online(matchmaking) of the game in my opinion. Anything else is just extra for me, its annoying that arguably the best 2d fighter of all time has such shitty online especially on PSN. They seem to be listening well to community feedback though so I have faith they’ll focus on what the fans want, guess we’ll see coming friday.

more talk about the game dropping EX inputs, and later on the video a “shoutouts to Iron Galaxy” after what looked like a dropped EX.

sorting this out is definitely one of the top priorities

oh SRK dropped my time marker. starts at 8:10

The biggest things for me is fixing EX inputs dropping, re-size the super bar correctly, and fix any sound and color glitches offline. Otherwise the game plays the same as I’ve experienced it.

It would be nice if the game lived up to it’s name and was actually playable online as opposed to feeling like 3S Mugen.

e-mailed about the dropped inputs specifically, their response:

Yeah we’ve seen that complaint a lot but can’t really find a way to repro it. I’m not saying you guys are wrong, we just can’t seem to get it to happen yet. If you have any additional details (happens more when cancelling out of a move, certain characters are more prone it, etc.) that would be super helpful. We plan on investigating further, but right now don’t have great lead on that one.

I definitely have no problem with EX on 360, so i can understand how hard it is to fix something that random.
One thing to keep in mind when you’re speaking of ex dropping: Online Edition Bugs and Glitches (Problems) List

i still don’t get the dropped ex stuff offline. ever.
must be some weird sequence of processes that need to take place for it to be something so ‘random’.

I’ve never had my EXs dropped online or offline using the 3P or 3K macroes either. You guys are tripping.

You’re wrong.

fyi. i asked dave whether they’ll be taking feedback on the list tomorrow:

as for the dropped EX inputs: ryan, it looks like you have something a little reproducible, right? every 20 slashes with yang, the EX gets dropped? there could be something there. how are you doing it? maybe we can try it ourselves, too…

just saw this post. if you’re using the 3p macro, there’s definitely something wrong as all 3 buttons should’ve been captured at the same, slightly-off time. otherwise, it’s possible one of your fingers had the button pressed longer/shorter and just slid into the input-capture window (or whatever it’s called), while the other fingers didn’t.

I missed a few EX’s today but they were jab+strong.

I use 3P 3K macro and it drops. A friend of mine plays on a stick without using macros and it happens to him too.

You know you have to have meter for EX, right?

I’ve never had an EX input drop…

So the fix list comes out today?

I miss my EX constantly (or half of the time) ;_;

I’m excited to see this fix list. Honestly, I’ve been so busy lately I’ve only had a little bit of time to play 3S but even so any 3S news is good.
