If the game plays like shit, I want a refund.

 

[Card Boy]

Still going to buy, I don't really have much choice in fighting games on the PS4.

I am waiting for Ultimate MKX, already have Injustice and Arksys is a cunt with releases in Australia.

 

[Boke1879]

It's called rushing games out the door and not prioritizing anything beyond the most essential parts.

This probably happened due to Evo, but sadly it an increasingly standard practice these days.

I'm also reading Capcom outsourced this to a dev that probably didn't have the chops to do this.

Lets get this done GAF.

And yes, I bought it.

How fucked can it really be if EVO are gonna be using this exact version?

 

[vg260]

Geez, Just flipped between the PS3 version and this and it's like the whole UI is running at half speed, and the lack of texture filtering is laughable. Just look at the training room floor. The PS3 version looks way better, or should I say passable. PS4 floor is a huge blur. Again, it should not have released like this. This is stuff that should have been caught at first glance, like everyone here saw. Haven't even gotten to gameplay yet.

The PS4 High Voltage port of Injustice looks like a better port job than this.

 

[SkylineRKR]

Come the fuck on with these download speeds already. I pay a fucking sub and am on 100mbit.

Anyway I bought it since I have no other option to play it. I'm confident they will fix things if this will be the tournament go to version.

 

[Boke1879]

If none of this is truly fixed by Evo. I can easily see them just using the 360 version. Hopefully now they are covering their asses just in case.

 

[riskVSreward]

The input lag is anything but subtle. It was instantly noticeable.

I havent noticed it. Do you have evidence? Coming from 360, it would have to be 1 frame at most which would put it on par with PS3. They explicitly said there would be no delay so hopefully that gets investigated.

 

[SnakeEyez]

Wow... Just seen the menu lag people are referring to during a stream, that's laughably bad. It moseyed on to the screen like it's supposed to be that slow smh.

Can you post some screenshots?

 

[Kyoufu]

What do people mean by laggy menus? I can navigate through them normally, even in character select.

 

[Kai Dracon]

Seriously, the outrage is about to get hyperbolic here. The game works, the issues are subtle, I have confidence that they will be patched and maybe even before Evo.

I don't know, it doesn't seem like people should be happy with "well it works" when games are becoming less and less polished at release.

 

[def sim]

yeah this feels worse than when the PC version initially transitioned over to steamworks

people I run into sending me messages asking if every game has been awful

Nah, people should email Sony and Capcom, they chose to hire some unknown developer to do the job (probably because they were cheap).

 

[riskVSreward]

Im not suggesting people should be happy, I'm saying the issues are getting exaggerated already.

I agree about contacting the devs, I'll do my part.

 

[Ostinatto]

Combofiend save us !!!

 

[Boke1879]

If anything email Capcom. They are the ones who outsourced the port to these people.

 

[Coda]

So for impressions...

Weirdly laggy menus, it's like once the flames go up during the VS screen something changes and you notice how smoother it gets.

I'm not seeing players names when I fight Ranked, just the letters "jwmi" near my character's icon.

Other than that honestly the 8 online matches I have played all were really smooth and I'm nailing all my combos with Guy so I'm relatively happy.

I'm assuming they'll fix those menu issues at some point.

 

[def sim]

Training character had over 3000 stun for some reason. Restarting training fixed it.

Heh weird

 

[Freshmaker]

No way. This game screams on old PCs with full settings. This is unacceptable.

There is no way this should have been released like this.

Yeah, USFIV runs rock solid 60fps on my ancient core2 duo with 6GB of RAM and a 750ti at 1080p with full effects on. No way a PS4 would be choking on this

 

[FunkyLounge]

How is this so busted?!?!

 

[FunkyLounge]

How does this even happen?

 

[Beelzebufo]

What's the patch for? I've had the game freeze once but that's it.

Gameplay feels just like 360

 

[Armaly]

Damn, I guess i'll stick with the PC version. Was so close to buying too.

 

[abstract alien]

Haven't even tried it yet, but it's already bought. If this shit is that busted, I guess I'm only buying games blindly from Nintendo or Kojima.

Lesson learned.

 

[Hag]

Some cheap and obscure third party handling the port for sure

I'm starting to regret these impulse purchases...

 

[I-hate-u]

I preordered DMC4SE, I sincerely hope it's not a bad port either on the PS4 with Capcom developing it and all.

 

[T0KY0ST0MP]

What do people mean by laggy menus? I can navigate through them normally, even in character select.

At the main menu if you choose something sometimes it will lag a little. You press X and nothing happens until a second later. It doesn't happen all the time but I only noticed it at the main menu

Lesson most definitely learned. I cant even talk

I'm sure it will be fixed, but it's still unacceptable.

 

[thefit]

Complete garbage, I play it on pc every day and this ps4 port is just utter garbage. Slow glitchy menus, terrible IQ, molasses fights, everything is bad WTF.

 

[Beelzebufo]

...and that's why people are regretting their purchase?

 

[thefit]

No its not just the main menu its every menu and everything else also.

 

[Onemic]

Outside of what has been said...played about 10 matches. The game just feels off. Frame delay super obvious in 2 bar matches, around 5-9 frames. Feels slower online compared to PC/360. It's still running at 60, but I'm having a hard time figuring out what's going on. Can feel it, can't explain it.

Crazy black outline around every character, very obvious if you look. Some stages colors are super off, super saturated.

Matchmaking is like early PC, most connection pings are blank.

edit
Can't find a match to save my life for the past 15 minutes. Unable to join session.

Is the outline thing just the ink post-process filter like in the PC version?

 

[Coda]

The actual fights seem smooth. I don't know what other people are experiencing but the only thing that's laggy is the menus. It's like the animation is laggy not the inputs though.

 

[JrBaconCheeseburger]

On my way home and just bought game online.

What is all this bullshit about game being broken?

Spoiler

Damn you look forward to a game and this is what you get. FUCK YOU CAPCOM

 

[Bizazedo]

I'm not seeing players names when I fight Ranked, just the letters "jwmi" near my character's icon.

The first person I fought, his name was on both characters for every ranked match after I fought him. You probably fought someone named jwm something.

Inputs feel slow. Like, at first I thought I was just SUPER rusty / not doing well with the DS 4, but now that I came here....

I dunno, journeyman's boots seem slower....

 

[riskVSreward]

...and that's why people are regretting their purchase?

Lack of AF affects bg graphics.
Menus are sluggish.
Some colors are locked for most characters.

Im mostly pissed that I dont have my sweet TRex icon yet...

 

[Beelzebufo]

No its not just the main menu its every menu and everything else also.

Like what? Haha I'm just wondering because outside of a freeze I've had legitimately 0 problems. This is SF4.

Don't you have to unlock all colors for default characters?

 

[Kyoufu]

Oh, that does happen to me yeah. I thought people meant scrolling up/down etc was slow.

 

[riskVSreward]

No its not just the main menu its every menu and everything else also.

Except the actual fighting for which no one has demonstrated otherwise.

 

[Onemic]

Ok if thats what you find funny.

However, my issues isnt PSN download speed. Its PSN with fighting games. Last gen Xbox 360 was the go to console for online play and tournament play. PSN last gen was just didnt perform as well. Now that we are stuck with SFV on PS4 only. Everyone in the FGC is worried.

This was only true for games developed by Capcom, which was not most fighting games.

I have the steam version and its night and day. I play the steam version on 1080p every day and the difference is immediate.

 

[Duxxy3]

For the people that are experiencing slower gameplay - how many people do you have on your friends list?

 

[vg260]

Can you post some screenshots?

 

[GuardianE]

Ports directly handled by Capcom have been fine so far.

Companies really need to start paying attention to who they're giving porting duties. This shit isn't easy and more developers fuck it up than not.

 

[mekes]

Cant say I'm noticing anything wrong with the menus and this is the 5th iteration of SF4 I've owned. Game seems fine so far, but probably needs a small patch or 2 for minor things others have mentioned.

Overall tho, seems like a job well done. Would be nice if they could unlock the colors etc through a patch.

 

[Beelzebufo]

What's night and day? The graphics?
