Good lord, dude…were you abandoned in the wilderness and raised by wild Capcoms? Cuz that’s the only excuse for this kind of rage-fueled, blind filial piety.
Also, maybe he’d return the game but even Gamestop doesn’t want it back…the trade value is terrible for a month old game.
So he’s wrong about things you can actively time to verify? Yeah no. The game takes a FUCK LONG time to do anything. Hell, I’ve compared it side to side against MKX and you can actually find a match, pick a character and start playing before SFV can do the same EXCEPT SFV never loads the character select screen because of their stupid-ass decision to skip that entire process (probably because they knew their infrastructure was garbage and it would tack on another 50 seconds before and after loading character select).
I was timing matches two days ago and I spent, on average, TWICE as long looking for & loading matches than actually playing. That is absurd. On top of that, the architecture is so stupid that I can’t even choose to rematch CASUAL players, an option that would let you play matches faster without having to get vomited back into the regular game mode. But…nope! Capcom can’t figure out how to offer rematch apparently. It makes sense though because the competitive community is well known for not wanting to rematch people that give them good fights. Right? Brilliant decision, Capcom.
You keep telling people to return the game? That isn’t going to help its longevity any. They’re a consumer. They bought a product with A LOT of problems and, as long as they keep it legitimate, it’s their right to complain and point out broken shit. Unfortunately, SFV has a lot of broken and downright stupid shit in it. That is just a fact. An OBJECTIVE fact when compared to its competition, other games all-together, and just plain common sense.
Telling people to wait for the first patch? This game plays worse than SF4 at launch. This game had something like 30 betas. People played in those betas to help the launch go as smoothly as possible. They basically did free work for Capcom. And how does Capcom repay that sort of effort? “Oh we didn’t think about ragequitting because we’ve all suffered serious head injuries within the last 18 months. Do more of our work for us and send us videos or something…er…what were we talking about?”
Broken ass lobbies.
Broken ass loading.
Broken ass infrastructure.
Broken ass ranking system.
Gaping holes in the games content.
These are legitimate problems, the majority of which should NOT exist at launch on a $60 game. Especially one specifically built for the PS4. How it can have WORSE loading times than multiplat games is absolutely mind-boggling…but it does.
People handed garbage are going to complain about the stink. You didn’t pay to enter this thread. People paid for their game. It’s a lot less of an investment lost for you to stop shrieking at people in this thread than for people to return their game. Food for thought.
