There's some inherent lag/latency that developers can't do anything about. The real lag is probably closer to 3 or 4 frames.

Ultra Street Fighter IV on PS4 is much, much better now. Bless.

i think him and spooky both said it was bad but i didn't see specifics... specifically about the gameplay. I respect art's opinion as an OG.

I think he simply means cheating the system, i.e. an intended one frame link being done in two frames
But didn't they falsely advertise it as the ultimate version, with a lag that is lower than the PS3 version, which turns out to be a lie?
Can't you ask to be refunded after being subjected to false advertisment?
Turns out you can't.

That awkward moment when you realize Nintendo got online better than Capcom.
Don't take the input lag number as gospel, just use it as a comparison between games on the same format. Their testing method isn't the best as they use an adaptor to convert a USB keyboard into an input which can increase lag. Also, even though the adaptor is the same in all their tests, it can have different amounts of lag over different formats.
Using their methodology, it shouldn't be compared to the 360 version. However, it should be said that it clearly isn't good enough if it's not on the level of Guilty Gear or even giving MK a run for its money.

Didn't know Capcom was the bastion of online infrastructures.
That fantasy land probably did get awkward.
The netcode itself seems sound, better than say Smash Wii U if you want to do that comparison for some reason. The issues are in the code in general, not the online.
haha, I meant cheating the engine... I plink, just not my shorts as it is awkward for me to hit Jab and Short at same time like that

Its nowhere near 8. It'd be borderline unplayable at that point. There's some input lag, but its not more than the PS3 version, even though they promised there'd be none.
I don't have the game but I have some optocouplers and a good hand. I'm up for testing it out later though I would need to buy the game and sacrifice a DS4, for science.
I was hitting Juri's and Yun's links pretty consistently last night, although that's not saying much for the latter. Mak's FFS came out pretty good as well. Online was comparable or better for me compared to ps3, I only play green bars though.
Just another impression, although it far from demerits the video evidence we've seen so far.

Don't even say nothing to me when smash is the way it is.
I thought people said Smash online for WiiU was legit?
The stories of the netcode do seem pretty consistent in being 360>PC Patched>PS4>PS3>PC Launch

Show me the thread complaining of Smash U's online.
imagine this happening to daigo at evo in grand finals vs momochi.

It is, netcode is great. Just no good matchmaking like other fighting games. But i mostly play smash gaf so its fine.
I haven't seen many people say pc patched is worse than 360. In my experience the lag is less in the pc version, if only the filters worked...
Well then, it sounds like Kotaku gt their headline right. It's only "kinda" broken. I'll still wait for a patch before getting it though.
What? No. lol
I'd imagine he'd blankly stare at the monitor and continue fighting...
(but in his mind, he grows 400m in height and goes rampaging through Las Vegas like Godzilla)

I can't fault them entirely for going cheap on this one. Street Fighter is not exactly a demanding game and you wouldn't think it would be difficult for a competent team to port.
Sony should absolutely offer refunds on this thought; they lied to their consumers about being the definitive version and having resolved the input lag problem. Not too mention all of the other small bugs. This kind of treatment wouldn't be acceptable in any other industry...
I'll have to test it out more tonight, but of those three Mak has more 1 frame links. But at the same time whether the links work or not probably doesn't matter too much because chances are I'm just adapting to what I'm working with.
I've never played the 360 version so if the input lag is relative or slightly worse than the ps3 version then my experience may be moot.

I agree, you'd think so, but apparently not. Hope an incoming patch fixes thing, I might give it a go. Not a hardcore player of fighting games but love me some SF.
Probably not his place to make any public comments on this at the moment. If anything it would only be that they're looking into it. Ono has already stated they're looking into it.

people are getting the run around in this thread. i'm not too incensed to pursue a refund if it means bitching out some lowly customer support rep.
i agree that sony should give refunds; the game is not in a playable state for me. i'll consider it a 25$ lesson learned and be more wary of future ports. like you said, this should've been an easy port considering past iterations. maybe patches will alleviate some of the problems. if not, i'll adjust to the input delay.
Yup.

Can we stop treating ps blog entries like legitimate news now? This just shows how worthless they are.
Considering Polygon gets a thread for a pie chart, I'm gonna guess no.

Diehard SF fan, but I'm happy I didn't buy this. And, even with future patches, this sloppy port left a sour taste in my mouth. Like I feel the game is already cursed. I'll wait for SFV instead.
Sadly, It think this will be a common sentiment. They really messed up here.
So much for this helping to consolidate the player base.

Yo, never tried out Juri's JP voice before. Much less annoying, makes the character likable.
Oh dear God. I fear for the ears of anyone who has never made that switch and faces her online.

Yeah. I don't doubt that something will always feel off about this port even when patched up. This game will always be Other Ocean's USF4. Kinda like that shit Tony Hawk HD game from Robomodo.
When a port fucks up game feel, it's not the same thing anymore. To say Sony/Capcom dropped the ball is a massive understatement. This shit to the FGC is MCC level derp.
And I usually don't want refunds but for this, after all the times I've already bought this game, I want my fucking $25 back.

no refund policy
True, but I have received a few refunds from Sony regardless of that policy.
Sony will give a refund eventually. You have to ask them to escalate it to a supervisor/manager then state your case with them. In all likelihood they will refuse again. Then you have to write an angry email to them or just be angry with them on the phone. Do that about 3 to 5 times more and you'll have your refund. That's how I've always gotten mine from Sony. Never been denied, but it might take weeks.
Obviously not worth your time, but sometimes it's about the principle of the matter.
