USF4-PC on Steam is SUPERB NOW? *GASP*

[pootnannies]

some people are so used to delay in this game that they don’t notice the lag it seems. people, try offline play against someone or the comp and see how much faster everything responds. get used to that then go online and tell me you have lag free matches.

FELT LIKE I WAS CHURNING HARDENING CEMENT WITH MY JLF STICK TODAY.

BASIC MOVEMENTS FELT STIFF AS FUCK.

Random quote from Steam…

I can feel it disconnecting me
I feel all the lag around me
I’ve been queing for this ranked match all my life it’s my destiny
There’s a packet loss deep inside of it
it’s waiting to DDoS me
no matter when, no matter why, I know this latency will crash the game somehow

Unconnectable!

My sides are hurting.

Endless literally felt like offline play today. Sadly, that the competition wasn’t really solid. But fun games none-the-less. The potential for arguably near offline-play *netplay * is most definately there. If Capcom really just goes against the grain and fix this ASAP they can go on with their business. Having these netplay issues is critically effecting people staying or trying the PC version. Everyone keeps asking me “Is Rank Fixed Yet?”

Valle stated he would try some new things with PC but the way everything is going I don’t even think he’ll stick with his plan. The faster they fix this the better it’ll be and more $$$.

The first week and a half of USF4 PC were bad ass, now it’s like they did something to the netcode again, cause no i’m even having shitty connections despite all the good things i said about it this past week. That patch needs to come soon, or it will kill the player base(even on consoles) i heard two noobs saying “why the fuck do people play this game online, it’s unplayable… Wanna get on TF2?”

let them go, at least players who stay are more serious about the game, and the player base in GFWL was much smaller than this steam version and it was totally fine

i just hope that they remove the region lock, ther’s no one to play with in my country,the few players ( 5 or 6 ) i know are already playing on xbox live with european players, and am here stuck with an unknown flag not able to play with anyone

until they have a ping system that works region lock is probably best for everyone

no one complain/complained about it on consoles, ther’s no reason for such limitation, unless you need some new excuse for losing

[the_saviour]

there is a reason though

so people can find better connections based on the country flag

These Hispanics playing outside of the USA think they slick using the American Flag but still have Miguel/Jose/BRZ/using their fuckin’ name AND…using ELF

y’all aint slick

Announcement from wbacon:

Hello Street Fighter fans,

The Street Fighter team has heard the community feedback and is aware that players are reporting issues with the quality of the online experience in Ultra Street Fighter IV for PC. We are working hard to ensure that players have the best online experience possible and we’ve made several targeted fixes to address these issues.

We are happy to confirm that an open beta program will begin on **Wednesday, August 20 **and we’d like to request your support and participation in testing the online experience yourselves.

Due to the complex nature of network testing, it’s often quite difficult to catch these issues until the game has been released to a very large network environment. Similarly, we feel that our best chance to accurately determine the cause and quickly provide a fix is to use large scale beta testing that will provide us with accurate “real-world” results.

We greatly appreciate your participation in this beta test and thank you for your understanding in how difficult it is to replicate this type of test environment.

Please visit the Steam Community Forum for more details.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

== The Street Fighter Team ==

Thought it was Ultra Street Fighter. not Street Fighter: Alpha Test 3

[Hawkingbird]

Why didn’t Capcom do this when it made the switch to Steam? It would have save them so much time.

Cause they’re Capcom.

Random comment on Steam…

[StockyJam]

[pootnannies]

i wish they brought back that song no matter how stupid it was. it got you pumped to play the game.

on topic, do we need to DL a whole new USF4 file to be in the beta?
