This is really disappointing

Yep i agree. The fact that they released info on the game 2 days before release with 0 promotion. You can guarantee that this port was going to be trash. I was too naive, hopeful, and was blinded by my love for SF to pay these scammers 25 bucks. /sigh....

Should have hired a studio like Bluepoint or Iron Galaxy, instead they hired a studio that cannot even port SNES/Genesis games to a PS3 properly. Sony/Capcom step it up or do not bother at all. Stop hiring developers that will work for a Pizza and a 6 pack of beer because this is the quality you get.

At this point, there is no way to fix it quickly.
Way too many issues and this is just day one. This is gonna take months.
This is pretty common though. Devs always low ball publishers and then try to renegotiate their contract saying they need more help along the way. It's frustrating that these companies who will underperform get work because they present themselves as cheap as a pitch while other studios that are up front and honest about the budget are pushed aside.

Bro every company should hire blue point for ports. They are the best at that shit in this industry. No one even comes to close to them when it comes to porting.

If you mean by SF team you mean the fine people at Dimps then yeah.

I realize we're not halfway through the year yet, but this has got to be contender for blowup of the year.
It's not just a shitty port of an old game. It's a shitty port of an old game set as tournament standard with money behind it, before the fact under the assumption that it would be the definitive version of the game for that purpose.
We all bought it hook, line, and sinker, and now allot of people are paying the price. I'm very interested in seeing where things go from here.

Backbone Entertainment, Other Ocean, High Voltage Software, etc. all need to be shut down.

Man, crazy how these went from basic glitches to straight up Rainbow Edition shit.
There's a few other godlike ones. M2 and Hexadrive both come to mind.

Yeah i agree, i know its frowned upon to say that kind of stuff, but if you deliver such shitty quality work do you even deserve to exist as a developer.
Have to agree here. There are too many people who do good work in this area to not have looked to those guys first. It's not far-fetched to assume sales will be lost for this game because of all the issues people are discovering now. There better be a patch that fixes all of this and fixes it completely very soon.
I find it pretty sad that they did not have a thorough QA process or hired competent developers for the version of the game they want people to use at tournaments.
If they don't fix this, and quick, it's a rather unforgivable error.
So they have a track record? Complete fault on Sony's end. Whoever did the ok for this should be heavily reprimanded.
Wow, just wow. I lose faith in certain aspects of the gaming industry when business is done like this.
Buckle your seat belt, we'll hear something from both Sony and Capcom pretty soon since no one is accepting this.
Nobody. And it shows.

People should stop referencing data that makes me feel uncomfortable because games get ported to platforms I don't like
I would say Just Add Water should be added to that list imo.

Because they are actually talented devs. And probably cost lot more to hire them. Sony cut corners here. And hired talentless devs like other ocean.
Holy shit at Guile's invisible Sonic boom!

Actually looks pretty cool though.

Last time Sony did a third party productions port with Iron Galaxy it did not turn out very well.
Maybe at some point they will just stop wasting money with these ports that don't seem to be worth it.
Also that Guile's Sonic Boom glitch is pretty awesome.

Shu's only responsible for 1st party games. You should tweet to Gio, he's in charge for this port
Well, MKX PC version still exists...
Ports are very much worth it. When done right.
Damn, Capcom get on their level.
Gunslinger
Member
if you are going to compare MKX to this gotta use the PC version IMO. Cause both of these games were ported by talentless leeches.

Isn't Shu higher in the chain than Gio?
And didn't Gio approve this wreck of a port?
Gio is gonna hide until this is all over. Guarantee you he won't respond to a single person. He knew what product was going to come out and didn't even bother trying to fix the situation.

Looks like 360 is still the superior console version of Ultra, sucks for those who bought this.
set the precedent, dont allow crap like this. get your money back. hope this spreads like wildfire.

well, i don't know much about how SCE works but i think i never saw Shu said anything about 3rd party games. I think Adam Boyes is in charge for that but for 3rd party games port or #buildthelist i think Gio (head of 3rd party production team) has a role
Arc System Works of Guilty Gear fame? I didn't know they ported FPS games.
Nah, the 360 version is also ass too, it's just the least shitty out of all the ports.
It's the most playable I'll give you that.
Arcade version is still best.
