Worry over SFIV stealing our player base

i don’t like sf4 at all, and i hope more and more people will get back playing sfhdr because right now it is kinda hard finding matches with a good ping and people who know what they are doing

I noticed this too. There doesn’t seem to be anyone online right now. Then again, I have been doing mostly Ranked matches. Is everyone in Player matches right now?

I have no problem finding player matches and there seems to be more and more peoplenow that the SF4 hype is fading out. I haven’t tried ranked though.

Player matches are as busy as ever for me. I haven’t noticed a difference in traffic since SF4 came out.

Player matches and lobbies are more appealing to me because you can keep rematching over and over. Having to individually set up each ranked match is a bit tiresome. Once you find a good lobby or player match you can play for hours without any trouble. And why play ranked when the leader boards will probably get erased anyways?

Okay, just must be ranked matches, since everyone knows that Ranked matches are useless anyhow.

I like SF4 but it’s kinda corny.

why do you think the ranks will get reset? I think they work fine at least they do for me. Even if i had more than 10 disconnects from other people leaving it never gave me the loss.I always got a win!!

The win is not shows in the box (with your name and win/loss ratio before the match) but if you look in the leaderboards you can see that you got the win

i don’t know man, i lost like 2 times in ranked so far but it gave me 5 losses so i don’t know about that… unless it changes later on or something, but i doubt it

yeah but thats not the problem of the disconnects. i normally chack after every match SIC and i noticed twice that a match i actually won (no disconnect) were counted as loss. So i think (sometimes) a win will be couted as loss.
In my case this had nothing to do with the disconnects.

Well it’s kinda a annoying to check after every match but i’m sure your losses came from this glitch, not from the disconnects
