after about 20 matches, online is 1000 times better at 4 and 5 bars. good shit namco.
Matches ARE better for sure. Though I swear I still can’t break throws. There were a miguel and King player that caught me with throws I know I broke.
but yea…4-5 bars are good. But sometimes the connection quality are misleading. I’ll hop in a 4-5 bar player match and people in there have either 3-5 bars. Plus them kids on now apparently don’t want to play cause I keep gettin kicked.
Wait…what? Let’s see…red, orange, yellow, green …where the hell did you get BLUE?!
Yea that’s kinda pissing me off. I’ll select a green room and once it joins everything is red. Does this about 75% of the time. Oh well at least when I finally find a real green connection I able to finish my juggles and block lows on reaction.
blue is better than green
agreed …
played about 10 games in player match, all greens except one which was yellow
comparable to SF4 …before patch a yellow bar would be unplayable, even going for the simple Eddy 4+b,b after B! was 50/50 …now I can get Eddy’s handstand cancels out just fine in a yellow bar connection
played 3 ranked also …all green all good
I can break most throws on time with reaction for the most part. 1+2 throw escapes are harder though.
And about you getting kick, that is what happens when you get too good. Instead of facing the challenge, they kick you. Me personally, I welcome people that can beat me.
And yea people need to get the word out as well of the new patch. The other patch will be here soon as well. I am just glad they responded. Namco gets points up for even putting out a patch so fast in the first place.
lol so i went to the bathroom and left the search on and there apparently there was a red bar and the guy accepted and since i was in the bathroom i had to play in underwater mode and he kept on spamming the same move and i lost because i kept on trying to parry it lol -_- stupid wang player
Only got around to playing like 5-6 games, I got all green to blue connections in ranked match thanks to the regional settings
oh no this was before I even got a chance to fight. Though stuff like that was happening pre patch before I stopped playing online. Gotta love that though.
The patch is pretty good, not great, but good.
I only want to play players with 4-5 bar connections since that’s the only way to get a decent match. I played someone with 3 bars and it wasn’t good.
The only thing that sucks is now I’m having a difficult time finding matches.
im hungover. barf. gonna download in ten.
maybe because people are busy doing shit for thanksgiving? i mean… that’s how i think about it
Most people are busy playing Modern Warfare 2. That’s the only game you’re going to find a lot of people to play with today. Everyone else is living a life for one day. :lol:
Oh and my bro is trying out the online and it looks much better. He’s not improvising with scrub combos anymore.
I really like the numbered indication for the connection. 5 (blue) = best and 1 (red) = I bought my internet connection at Walmart.
Pretty much this. Been playing all day.
Just got finished playing for about 3 hours. Patch is pretty solid, in about 40 or so blue/green matches I had there was only 1 laggy match and 3 random disconnects. Juggles worked 99% of the time an I even managed to break a throw or two. Alot better than I was expecting from Namco.
You! Who are you and why havent we played yet?
Man all the player matches Ive played so far have been 3 and 2 bars:sad: Ive been getting better connections in ranked. 4 and 5 bars are the shit though. 5 bars and its like damn near offline play. 3 bars now is like 5 bars before the patch lol which means I can land juggles about 30% of the time
4-5 bar games are quite good. Like I said before sf4 quality for sure. the ranking match making is done quite well also
Now I’m really enjoying the patch, I’m destroying spammy scrubs and had great matches with good players.
4-5 bars = Great Matches
3 bars = Risky, it can be good or have input lag
1-2 bars = Ignore Completely
Yeah, its just like the SF4 netcode.
It’s a good thing.
hell yes to that. I actually like it this way where I dunno who the hell i’m fighting yet but I can see their connection. Then if I don’t like it, it just searches again instead of going alll the way back to the online menu.
