Everything's going a bit too swimmingly well with this game for my liking.

disagrees what? I didn't post anything before them
Hopefully they have enough data to fix the code. AFAIK it was code issues on the server rather than infrastructure.

well you called them trolls for saying the game won't work, which obviously means you think the game will work.

The purpose of that beta was to test their servers and find/fix problems with the network before the launch.

of course, someone said "Trainning mode only in first week" so that's mean i can't play story mode, vs cpu?
Must have missed the beta. ;p

I don't have a PS4, but I was super disappointed not to be able to watch some SFV streams on Twitch.
Just because I don't own a platform, doesn't mean I can't love a franchise.
I'm not sure how much information they took from the beta, other than it was impossible to get on-line for many people.
English is not my first language, so I fail to understand why people mistake beta by demo. Probably something's lost in translation.
Mostly because a lot of recent betas were just demos. The marketing machine uses it as a time-sensitive demo most of the time.
You post snarky comments in almost every ps related thread
Even that's pretty useful though, it's better to iron out those kinks now than at launch.
Most publishers use "beta" to mean an "early-access demo" even when it's not necessarily correct.

It's because the latest Beta's in this industry were nothing more than a demo, because they were so close to the release date.

It's a beta, what do you expect?

They will be conducting more betas before the game launches so that won't be their only chance to get data.

True, but still it was a disappointment for fans.

It kind of blows my mind that we're only up to Street Fighter 5, actually. Considering this a franchise that was on it's second game when I wasn't even 10 years old.
I'd like to give this a shot, I enjoyed SF4 but I've never been very good at the series.

I have seen a lot of (console) betas which acted as real betas, meant to check connections and maybe fix balancing. I have never ever experienced a beta which ran as worse as the SF5 beta.
It was a disappointment for the players and quite embarrassing for Capcom, without a doubt. Yes, the purpose of the beta was to test servers etc., but it was also meant to hype people, tease them and to actually be playable by A LOT more people, which they failed at.

Good luck with the servers Ono the God
I know it was a beta but I've never seen struggles like that , I only played 1 match in 2 days of trying last week lol , got plenty of practice though , my struggles in street fighter continue
I've always hated regions having to wait so it's cool they will launch at the same time

They tend to iterate rather than re-invent.

Yes it was disappointing. I only played two matches, but I know shit happens(especially with online games) so it didn't really bother me.

But why would you think the game won't work based on a botched beta 7 months before launch? Seems irrational. It's called a beta for a reason.
When I saw this thread, I knew people were going to spin it so they could complain.
Yeah they had problems with the Beta test, but that's kind of the whole point of doing the test. If you really don't trust them, don't buy day 1 or just skip the game entirely.
We have 3 more tests for them to get it right, not really sure why people would think Capcom would ship a broken game after that embarrassment.
