I didn’t recently,but when I’ve done that I’ve feel 4 slower. I mean,before I had to be fast to execute Makoto Hayate Cancel combos,but after months of 5 those combos comes out only slowing down my motions. Weird.
Since i downloaded the “Test200” Beta, which i didn’t get to play because i was still connected to the internet. And the recent update, i’m getting random framedrops.
My game starts going from 60fps down to 45~50fps, i checked my temperatures, clockspeeds etc, during this but nothing is wrong it seems. This happens online, but also during training. It drops in fps for like 2-3 secod and then it’s fine again for a 1 or even 10 min.
I’m wondering if anyone else has these problems since the update.
Trife warned of this, they’re punishing you for playing Akuma/Season 2 early.
Not really. It’s just Capcom to need to make sure that the chosen ones that get to be on TV this year go unhindered. They can’t risk pissing off the Chinese government by having FANG end up on ESPN and taking the cup. Or heaven forbid an evil psychic Dictator hellbent on world domination wins CPT. You know, Dictator = bad, democracy = good. Pft.
It’s all for show and politics now. Combofiend said it himself, the game is balanced for the viewer.

WAIT A MINUTE! WASNT AN ARCADE MODE SUPPOSE TO BE IN SFV SEASON 2!? So much for that rumor.
No Gill, rest in peace.
It takes 5 minutes.
Eh, after Du’s performance think most Laura’s will just get a pocket Chun for Gief then have no bad matchups. Even then I’d like to see how bad the Gief matchups stays when competent players grind it out.
Really only like 4 characters need a couple more buffs to be where they need to be imo. Some mechanic changes to tech rolls and reduction of input lag by another 2f would be the best things fro the game.
Characters I think need a little more
Fang
Juri
Bison (think he still needs a tad more walk speed then let him fly, he’s good everywhere else)
Mika
After that let it rock see what happens.
Only 4? Sounds like every Birdie and Alex player is setting up their own funeral at this point lol. People that don’t main Nash are setting up a funeral for him as well, but I think he’ll pan out alright.
Luckily for Laura, Gief is a character loyalist character that won’t be played a lot in tourneys any ways and in a 2/3 Laura can just hope to get the better of the scrambles since he also doesn’t have anything invincible other than super.
As good as Laura is going to be, I still think Cammy is a better character to play than her (better defensive options including still best meterless DP) while still being able to carry lots of momentum and having a safer to use V Reversal than she did in Season 1. I thought Cammy was arguably better than Chun in Season 1 and now she surely is better in Season 2 and I’d argue pretty much best character in Season 2. Not by an amazing amount and still has that matchup issue vs Gief, but I’d rather use Cammy vs Gief than Laura any way.
Cammy overall has the best of ways to call out people’s offense instead of having to rely on a steamroll like Laura. While also having better neutral and being able to frame trap people to death also. In a game where everyone has to EX or V Reversal to get out once you are in trapping range. Cammy also has a much better jump in game which is going to be more important now that anti airs are mostly nerfed amongst the cast. Being able to dick on everyone when you jump in even better than Season 1. Then the top it all off Cammy pretty much also still has the best anti air in the game and super damaging DP into super. Making things lopsided when people want to jump at her.
Gief vs Sim is the worst matchup in the game now if it wasnt already. Its hilariously pathetic
The Grief continues. Get better in some relevant matchups and get dicked by the worst still.
If only Giefs st. hp could absorb sim st. mk. That simple change would have made the match just a little less garbage
Nash isn’t the worst character in the game even with his nerfs. He’s pretty far down there though. Just give him some damage buffs and EX sonic scythe being like Guile’s flashkick (not 1st frame invincible) and we are good.
I’d say like bottom 7 all could use some slight help and that Geif buff would help 1 matchup without effecting a lot of others. Those 4 though imo need some serious loving as they have fundamental weaknesses or are literally outclassed in their gameplan by another character 100% to the point it makes absolutely no sense to pick them up.
I think Cammy, Urien, and Necalli are arguably better than Laura. Those are very likely the top 4 unless Akuma is in there and then it is top 5.
2018 can’t come any sooner! #BuffBison
This was my first thought when I read Sim’s changes. What the hell did Capcom expect? They buffed several of Sim’s zoning tools as well as nerfing gray life recovery, which sucks for a character like Gief who has to bulldog their way in against Sim. Meanwhile Gief got no buffs that really help him get in as far as I can tell.
Sim players aren’t even particularly happy because our bad matchups are still bad, too. Almost every other Sim I talked to asked for buffs to his zoning, but I kept asking for buffs to offense instead since Sim’s hardest counters (mainly Rog) don’t have to respect his zoning in the first place. Meanwhile every buff to zoning makes Sim’s already good matchups even more oppressive.
Come watch Momochi and Choco cook stuff
It seems to me that capcom made all of their balancing decisions in a one character vaccuum without considering matchups or the meta as a whole. Not surprising, though.
Do you guys think they made the gap between the top tiers (early tier list) and the rest bigger or smaller this season?
Guiles’ V-Trigger is all about resets now that he can combo out of upside down kick.
This makes me think Urien and Guile are the two most technical characters in the entire roster
FLAMING hairballs
I think they swapped the top tiers instead.
More seriously, I believe it’s REALLY too soon to make any prediction anyway. Even with a year of experience in the game, some universal changes like the meterless DPs or the oki are too huge to understand how much they will affect the meta. Plus we have a new character that looks like a powerhouse and has still to be figured out yet.
The only true thing is that some characters will now be competitors for top 10 and that we might see less of the same 8 characters over and over… but we don’t know if they will just be replaced by another top 10.
