Im looking at getting SFxT on PC but i noticed that the PC version is still on 1.02 & just wanna know when will PC get the 1.06 patch & the DLC Characters?
Also i remember hearing that this game is extremely laggy on PC is this true any fixes coming for that as well?
As much as I’d love to recommend getting the game on PC… I simply can’t. All online functions are pretty much unplayable at this time… check back around december
Capcom has said 1.05 will come “soon” but hasn’t elaborated on that yet, as they never do and only announce PC updates 1-3 days before they come out.
Capcom has also said 1.06 and the DLC characters will not be out until sometime in September (could be early or late September), then again, Capcom says a lot of things and doesn’t release them until several months later.
The online is not unplayable. 2 vs 2 IS unplayable for some odd reason. You can play 2 vs 1 fine though. Weird stuff that I hope they fix soon.
The netcode is pretty bitchy though, if you have a great connection to the opponent, it’s AE quality,maybe better. If it’s not perfect,welcome to the world of rollbacks and teleports. If you played GGPO before with lag ,you know what I mean.
So, some people you played with some lag in AE, you won’t be able to play here. The people you played with green bars and great connections before, will also work here.
I have it for both PS3 and PC but mostly play PC nowadays.
I don’t have an Xbox,but I can say it’s at least on par with PS3. 1.06 should hit in September, so I guess I ll practice the new chars a bit on console.
That has been patched a while ago. Again,with great connections, no lag,plays perfectly. It it’s not 100% good, you will see some rollbacks. Anything worse than that, and its indeed unplayable.
you can actually play 2v2.
second team must be created while first team in a match with somebody else.
1)2 guys create a team and start a match against 3rd guy.
2)2 other guys join the lobby in the middle of the match and create a second team.
3)first team finishes the match
4)profit
There are some input lag sometimes. I’m having the best connection (in ranked matches. Endless Lobby’s almost nonexistent) if I’m playing a player from either Hong Kong or Japan (I’m from the Philippines). Not sure on what’s happening on their end though as Mouhappai (an HK player) stated before that he was having lag when facing me while it’s A-OK on my end. Winning and losing battles because of lag can be irritating and frustrating at the same time.
So far I had the worst connection when playing against European players particularly Russia for some reason.
Bizarrely enough, I one encountered input lag problems when playing against players from Singapore and India, despite of them being closer to us compared to the ones I’ve mentioned above.
Dont let people discourage you, the PC version works very well on many machines(even better than AE) and even works great in a window - so you can post here or check your characters boards etc…I’ve played many matches on PC and enjoy the game, yes you will have to wait for updates but for me it is worth the wait, not to mention all the awesome mods already out and more coming. Looks way better on PC all around. Online is the exact same code as xbox version.
probably not. there is no word or acknowledgement from capcom about the status of the pc netcode. from their side it was fixed with the first patch (which included the console netcode change). and the third party pc developer doesn’t care, they are paid to port the console patches and that’s exactly what they’ll do and nothing more.
As today (Sept 05th), what’s the latest patch for PC version?
Is there any difference between PC version vs Console version (there is a tourney in the upcoming weeks, and they want to define what platform they’ll be using)
I am calling it right now. We will get 1.06 and the DLC characters on September 14th. If I am more than two days off in my prediction I will be very upset.
