I’m fine with the current cast (except for my main is missing, but she’s on her way.)
Those cutscenes were actually good though. Hyped for cinematic story mode.
Capcom was perfectly transparent? Lol
Tell that to all the PC players who’s controllers are compatible with USF4 but not SFV.
Most of us didn’t even know that SFV didn’t have a Vs. CPU mode and 2-player max lobbies until like a week ago.
Not everybody is refreshing SRK, Eventhubs, & Capcom-Unity newsfeeds on a daily basis.
Alot of people didn’t know till recently. But not all of them were complaining either…
Only thing I didn’t know about and care for is lobbies. Who the fuck thought 2 man lobbies were the hottest shit and fuck all other lobby sizes?
Yes, because they’re diehard fanboys, which people have every right to be.
Just understand that their opinions are not based in logic, accountability, & fairness, but in unwaivering loyalty to Street Fighter.
I mean at a certain point you have to look at realism even if you are a SF loyalty like myself.
Competitive gamers have to think outside the box and look at the casual side as well. The casual side also drives the game to be successfully with people buying the game and the stream viewers.
I think with time the game will get better as they justed rushed this in for financial benefit and they are busy coding/testing the rest of it. So they gave us a beta basically as a full game for now.
Also I hate the color unlocking on this game. Hope you can buy colors from the shop. At least make a statement saying you can. Survival mode to do this is so early 2000s. SFIV color unlock system was actually great.
So being informed on what you’re buying makes you a fanboy now?
I already got off the phone with some of my dad’s coworkers and they are even defending SFV over KI/MKX and other games. I’ve never heard of them, they’re not FGC top players so they at best would fall into a casual or hardcore casual group.
That pretty much shows why SFV will succeed. There are definitely people going out and getting info about the game and understanding what it will bring in the future. Especially when you’re talking about STREET FIGHTER. There are people that will stick with SF first no matter what and being able to play the next gen SF is most important to them over any other fighting game.
Was every complaint even brought up by Capcom prior to release? The biggest complaint I’ve seen is no 1P vs. CPU which seems to be unavailable even though everything it takes to create that is already in the game. It’s not like story mode, the store, lobbies or spectator mode which obviously need to be finished. It could have been included but wasn’t, and I don’t remember Capcom saying anything about that. That has probably been the #1 criticism of the game thus far.
Also other little things to help the game that were just lazy oversights. No variables difficulties in story mode and the default is stuck I believe at 3 or 4, so it’s below the level of button mashing. The bothersome way you earn colors in Survival.
1P vs. CPU is not the #1 complaint or criticism, anywhere.
I can agree on a number of oversights, but story mode difficulty definitely isn’t one of them.
I’m just gonna say this:
If you people pre-ordered because your dicks were so hard for beta you couldn’t think clearly, then serve you right. You guys got baited hard. Learn your lesson and wait next time. Betas and bonuses are a gimmick to get your pre-order dollars.
If you people rushed out to get the game on launch because you thought it would run smoothly, then sorry, but it’s 2016. Online-heavy games almost never work on launch.
If you people bought the game and didn’t know some stuff would be missing, then sorry, but it’s 2016. Best do your research.
If you people knew what was missing but bought it anyway, you have no right to complain about it, because you’ve basically supported this practice by giving them your money.
If you people DON’T own the game and hate how things are missing, PLEASE DON’T BUY IT YET.
This whole thing should be a reality check for a lot of people. Please use your hard-earned cash wisely.
This is from IGN’s review. This is how I found out.
“Considering all of that, it’s difficult to understand or accept the big gaping holes in Street Fighter 5’s feature set. The biggest, most unforgivable thing right now is that there’s simply no way to play the CPU in a standard two out of three-round match, because bizarrely, there’s no CPU vs mode and no standard arcade mode. There’s a survival mode and an extremely brief story prologue for each character, but each is limited to single-round battles with non-standard stipulations applying as well (for instance, you start with full EX meter and V-meter). This is basic functionality that every fighting game has, and it just isn’t here, despite the fact that all the pieces to provide it are.”
That was prephased as the biggest, most unforgiving thing by the reviewer. This was one of the fairest reviews SFV has gotten and that was the big shaming comment about the game.
Also why is no variable difficulties in story mode not a legitimate complaint? Theres only a few things to do when not online, so shouldn’t we at least have the option to turn the difficulty up or down for one of the only things worth grinding currently?
The blind fanboyism and Capcom reassurance post make me sick. How people can even defend this product is mind boggling.
No, overlooking & defending the obviously bad business practices of your favorite video game’s developer makes you a fanboy.
I literally could not care less what IGN thinks. Survival mode is there if you want to fight CPU so bad.
Because the fights in story mode are pretty much extensions of the cutscenes. I would rather they not even be there because they don’t even matter.
Story mode isn’t worth grinding at all, you clear it all in like an hour and move on. The grinding comes from survival mode and online.
I KNOW RIGHT??? I SWEAR I THOUGHT THE GAME WAS GONNA HAVE A SINGLE PLAYER CAMPAIGN WITH EXPLOSIONS N SHYT.
I FEEL SO RIPPED OFF I COULD GO OUT AND KICK SOMEONE IN DA NUTS.
FUCKING SHIT GAME !!! WITH SHADY ASS PRACTICES LIKE THESE BEHIND OUR BACKS. NOT ACCEPTABLE MAN !!!
FUGGIn’ STREET FIGHTER VAGINA SHAPE V SHYT GAME
Survival mode is absolute trash though, and it’s not even close to having VS CPU or Arcade mode.
What’s so great about vs. CPU and arcade mode that elevates them above the “absolute trash” that survival is?
O
Nothing you just said is relevant. You don’t get to make the claim that people aren’t complaining about something, and then when provided with proof to the contrary, say you don’t care about the source. I provided you with the chief complaint from the most read review on the Internet. The source is legit, and if you want to get into other complainers you’ll inevitably not care about after the fact, you’ll find this is a very common complaint.
Now you’re just projecting your own cares and concerns onto everyone else. You may not care, but most people that are currently dissatisfied with the game care about being able to play the CPU in normal game conditions, and this was not something on the release schedule that Capcom warned everyone about. Unless you know something I don’t and want to provide a source.
