SFV FAQ/INFO: BETA is LIVE. Stay up late Tuesday Night. NEW CFN LAUNCHES 9PM PST/12AM EST

Has your Mad Catz ever worked on your PC? If not then no drivers/programs will make it.
x360ce worked on the beta fine for my Hori and Mad Catz sticks.

Agreed. The rate at which we accrue fight money is something that’s going to fluctuate as Capcom figures out the ideal time-to-reward ratio for unlocks. They can’t just leave everything as is.

I’m not sure if this is the right thread to ask this, but here goes:

I currently have SFV preordered on PS4 but I’m considering getting it on PC as well for sake of convenience. Does anyone know though if capcom is planning any form of account sync between PS4 and PC? I would hate to have to unlock several dlcs on PS4 only to not have them available on PC.

Great idea.
Was super annoying for me to switch between PS4 and PC and then have all my points reset and my name taken etc.
Would be nice if we could log in on our account on both systems.

I would imagine that’s how it will work at launch. Im sure we’ll get a confirmation on that soon

Around ~200 seems to be standard for a medium hit confirm. Probably because most mediums do 50-60 damage and then your specials do another 100.

I imagine that your CFN account will link DLC and unlocks between platforms, but we should wait on Capcom’s word before making any decisions.

@otori @john4p Either you got a list of controllers/sticks that worked for the beta? Did you always have to use a key mapper or can some sticks work without it (like if you’re trying to play 2 player in training mode)?

I dunno anyone that had a working stick. Everyone I know uses(d) mappers.

There’s a pinned topic in Steam forums from a Capcom representative saying this though:

steamcommunity.com/app/310950/discussions/0/483368526574345402/

My Madcatz Fightstick Pro 360 works perfectly well, no mapper needed. My TE2 PS4 doesn’t though

Yeah if you have two XInput-controllers that the game recognizes then it should work.
I don’t have two so can’t test it. Keyboard definitely doesn’t work for 2nd player.

Does anyone know how the pre-order costume thing will work in Europe?

my MCZ work fine when plugged alone, same for Xbone controller, its when i use the fighting edge and x360ce that neither the MCZ or the Xbone controller dont work anymore, we tried two MCZ stick with a friend and they worked fine too

NOTE: You will most likely have to delete and redownload the beta from the library if it doesn’t let you in. It will tell you that you need to download the update with close as the only option.

Unfortunately the accounts will be separate.

"We also asked if players who owned both PC and PS4 versions of SF5 would be able to link their accounts into a single profile that would maintain points between both platforms.

“No. Due to the different account systems inherent to Steam and PSN, separate profiles will need to be created for players who decide to play on both platforms,” said Capcom’s Senior Public Relations Manager, Jason Andersen."

Welp…there goes that.

I’ll post the info for the beta pretty soon

** INFO FOR 3rd beta**

http://www.capcom-unity.com/combofiend/blog/2015/12/07/sfv-3rd-beta-test-dates-and-capcom-cup-announcements

  • We have been running numerous worldwide beta tests throughout the year in order to improve the stability of our online servers ahead of launch, and are pleased to announce that we will being having a third round of beta tests on both PS4 and PC from 12/18 12:01 AM PT (8:01 AM GMT) until 12/20 @ 10 PM PT (12/21 @ 6 AM GMT). What better way to spend the holidays than by serving up some season’s beatings to your foes online? *

No word yet on if there will be server maintenance or which characters will be in the beta, but will post as soon as it is listed.

Can you get access to beta if you pre-order from Best Buy?

I know at one time you could. Not sure about now

I pre ordered a while back at Gamestop and I didn’t get any code. Then again, knowledge of another beta release was unknown. I missed the second beta so I’m hoping I’ll be able to find a way to get a code for the 3rd beta tomorrow. I’m sorry this doesn’t answer the Best Buy question.

I know that players who played the last beta get extra 3rd beta codes for friends. I missed the 2nd beta. I’m on PS4 and would like to join in on the fun. I haven’t seen any co-op sites with extra codes as of yet. I’ve only started researching since early today.
