The Street Fighter V Lounge: Tron Bonne rumored as DLC

[OceanMachine]

It’s strange, all my mates on steam that used to play SF4 religiously are always playing other games.

I really think the player base for SF5 has shrunk massively in comparison to SF4, either that or all the dudes that I used to play SF4 with, just don’t really play this. Is there any stats anywhere? Like any steam magic that can tell us…

USF4

SFV
http://steamcharts.com/app/45760

it dropped to nearly the same amount of players which usf4 had.

Shit, that drop at the start… talk about nose dive. If Capcom got their shit together from the go this would have been massive.

MKX showed a similar drop even with a significantly better launch, nothing to worry about here.

It has about the same amount of players as USF4 had at its height on steam. pretty much shows nobody plays SF on PC… but we’ve known that already.

It’s still the most played fighting game by far. Even with XL Mortal Kombat still has 500 less avg players than SF5.

USF4 was 6 years old…

So I tried testing my connection to some US server and I’m wondering how unplayable this would be.

SFV has less PC players than SF4 had LAST YEAR AT THE SAME TIME.

That is not good.

MKX is pretty unplayable on PC since its launch yet has sold three times more. SFV has a lot of problems but for most its playable meaning more are simply choosing to not play it. SFV barely has more active players today. MKXL on PC is going to kick SFV’s ass regardless of quality in sales again and put a sizeable dent in the shrinking PC playerbase if it’s a good port.

Think it’s been that way for a while, player base in general has taken a dip on PC

[Evil_Canadian]

You guys act like any appreciable portion of the player base plays on pc. Who cares about numbers for an inconsequential platform.

well give us the PS4 concurrent player numbers and we’ll talk about those instead

[Trife88]

Casual pc players are smarter and better than console players

Still going to stress that no fighting game is more played than SF5 on PC. It’s not their fault either if so few people play FGs on PC.

Also I’m drunk, someone play me pls

Usf4 isn’t even 6 years old now.

So I’m getting ranked matches every 30 seconds (on PS 4) and my friend who’s on steam has to wait 2-5 minutes for a game.

Anyone know what’s wrong?

[Jaxxx]

does anyone have a link to the brackets or attending players?

I’ve literally linked it two pages ago

oh , my bad - when i come on here, there is a lot of unread messages and i just go to the last post.

the 1st thing i saw was the streaming schedule images that you post. I’ll go further back and check. Thanks

Are you guys the same rank? If he’s higher it’ll take longer

Console bitches shutting PC players out of matchmaking because they fear the masterrace secret powers.

It’s a fair point but still I think Capcom will be disappointed that they weren’t able to grow their competitive community despite sinking so much money into ESPORTZ

PC doesn’t tell the whole story but no growth is a bad sign no matter what

bwahahahhahahah yo who is this birdie man

There’s no way that’s a human playing

[Trife88]

Pc player background goes back to ggpo…mame32k

Console player background goes back to call of duty voice chat and Sims

Never trust a human that buys first generation consoles either :^)

If their competitors have no growth either it simply means there’s no real demand for fighting games right now. Everyone is probably too busy on the Sombra ARG.
