I keep getting “lost connection to opponent”. I used to get it post GFWL patch back in March and when steamworks first came in it disappeared, but since the latest patch its come up again and its actually worse than how it was during GFWL era.
SSFIV:AE used to play better on my laptop during GFWL than on my new desktop on Steam now. Anyway, i keep getting “waiting for player” ALOT during matches, ones that are green. Some times they are green and suddenly they have a 1 bar. I have to say though if it’s green and no “waiting for player” message pops up during gameplay it is fantastic.
This has nothing to do with the port but maybe my lack of knowledge of Steam, is it possible to sent and recieve messages to other players, ones you haven’t added as a friend.
Also i’m guessing most decent players have left AE on PC for Ultra on the consoles, i’m not that good of a player either but this is ridiculous, an enormous amount of beginners are playing this.
*Edit, i’m also suddenly having the problem that the game audio in the menu’s is lot louder than when i’m picking my character and playing a match, it’s annoying.
Guarantee you they came from the recent summer Steam sale having snapped it up for $15 or less. Sounds like Ultra will have bajillions of players (aka Tuesday on xbl, but whatever) in the first few weeks on Steam . i’ll probably be there
I uninstalled my AE PC off of my laptop last night. I also cancelled my preorder as well.
I’m actually really surprised to see people having all these issues. I haven’t been playing on PC as much, but whenever I play with friends that don’t have an xbawks it’s ususally pretty good.
Ranked and endless is a lost cause though.
Can anyone explain how to do a reinstall of GFWL AE2012?
Well those are the modes this whole thread is centered on, obviously…
Sorry*
Just mad that i fu***** get on PC version today after 2 damn months, expecting to hear good news from everyone like " OMG PCMASTURRRRRRBATE I* MEAN RACE???KREYGASMMGERGREARYH%rt
hptrhklrh and i play online and lose to this HORRRRRIBLE 1600PP SAGAT!! DAMNNN!! Who just jumped areounddddddddddd "waiting for players! Wwaiting for players!! random EX tiger uppercut! *Waiting… for players…
Cough* anyways
Just finished tweeting to ComboFiend and Dawgtanian, about how horrible the net code on PS3 (especially) and PC are. The 360 version is definitely the best of the three now, but even then that’s not saying much, but at least it’s still playable unlike the barely playable PC version, and unplayable PS3 version.
i would buy 6 xbox360 and burn them to hell before i actually use one to play SF4
Capcom does not work quickly. It took them over a week to add proper mouse control to RE4 “Ultimate” Edition on Steam because the game launched with a mouse acceleration menu option that did nothing, I don’t exactly expect them to fix what’s going on with Street Fighter in a timely manner either. It shouldn’t be acceptable, but their cluelessness is a part of why they’re going bankrupt right now, so I don’t know what else one can expect.
Anyway, I’m actually doing pretty well with RenderingThread OFF, no AA or anything. Max ping is set to 250, but I have no way of knowing whether that has any effect.
@#$@ YOU CAPCOM
AE/PC on Steam

Sad if only you were here for the glory days (cough a month and a half ago) before the steam transition, you would be getting wet.
I was playing in my lobby yesterday with someone I know and this Italian guy joins and I removed him because it would lag. He then proceeded to rejoin the lobby for 2 hours yelling over the microphone. Every time we asked if he was mad he would nervously laugh and say he was not mad at all whilst trying to sound calm then when we kick him he would come back screaming.
I haven’t had any serious connection issues during actual fights since the transition to Steamworks.
But plenty of other problems (dropped lobbies, false green connections, freezes when loading) have been happening much more often.
I think a lot of people are assuming they’ll be a mass fix come Ultra in a couple of weeks.
Hmm… I dunno though, I guess PC players can just wait and hope.
i totally give it up for the PC version, i will just be a training lab monster for the rest of SF4 lifespan i guess, still am gonna twit spam combofiend and david hind
I don’t know guys, I played it yesterday a little bit and it worked great, same as GFWL.
this is what happens when 6 dudes and only 6 dudes on weed work on a triple A game.
unless Ultra costs $1.99 I aint buying shit. Cuz I already know Ultra update isn’t gonna fix jackshit. lets b 4 real.
stop hoping for the miracle to happen.
now, swear to gawwwwwwwwwwd, I really do hope Capcom goes either bankrupt or gets bought out, cuz to put only 6 people to work on a triple A game is just irresponsible. this isn’t some indy greenlighted steamworks fighter we are talking about here…this is Street Fighter by Capcom.
for shame.
You think I’m joking when I say this.
When playing AE-Steam. Unplug everything from your usb.
peoples are playing ultra, evo is gone, rose won it, and we’re here like freaking homeless with that ghetto AE , my rage level is rising to the shin barrier
Worked a little bit better today, not as much “waiting for player” as expected. Turning everything low/off sadly doesn’t fix the rest of the jankiness
