[Edzi]

Room for one more? CFN EdziPC

 

[CountBlack]

Tokido and Fuudo interview by FGC News. Both fairly positive about SFV with Tokido saying he likes the game and it's systems.

Tokido knows that SFIV's netcode was better too

im not alone

yeah i just saw this lol. my bad

 

[Pompadour]

I can see why he'd think that with Japan being so tiny and dense. Delay-based netcode works well enough in those conditions. I'm also sure there were more opponents to choose from because like 50 people own a PS4 in Japan.

now if only you lived in japan instead of a country 5 times the size of it

 

[galvenize]

edit: nvm

For Japan yes for sure.

It's time we get a f2p version Capcom is already screwing the early adopters when they are offering full game + 2 season passes for $40 yet they refuse discounting s2 pass for the people who already have the game.

Japan has good Internet. Had decent matches from there. Unlike Brazil.

Most games past a year usually do this lol

GGs Beef/Producer.

 

[Lulubop]

This top 8 is purtty good

 

[Gr1mLock]

I enjoy seeing Birdie put in work.

 

[spazchicken]

Pretty interesting. Looks better when it's not in slow motion.

That looks pretty good. Very impressive.

It's far too late for AAA fighting games and AAA games in general but Indie games could really benefit from this.

 

[Professor Beef]

GGs to Producer and Edzi!

 

[Lulubop]

Smug vs Snake top8

Snake's Akuma is looking real solid, Akuma is fun to watch

 

[TheSpoiler]

By tomorrow this time, we will be complaining about Ed. How he looks, how he plays, that he's OP/too weak, and maybe a few Kotaku articles will go up.

I'm excited.

 

[Lulubop]

YOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[TheSpoiler]

When Balrog isn't winning by stupid means he's actually pretty fun to watch. Smug backdashing that fucking EX SPD was CRAZY.

 

[Lulubop]

AY AY AY AY

 

[TheSpoiler]

Looks like Rog needs a nerf.

 

[Gr1mLock]

Lord Smugglesworth.

 

[Blueblur1]

How appropriate that Balrog won a major right before Ed is officially revealed.

 

[Xeteh]

Not a fan of watching Balrog but glad Smug won, he earned it.

 

[MCD250]

Snake's Akuma during that set with ChrisG.

 

[Lulubop]

Ed time

 

[Kashiwaba]

I'm still wondering what's the difference between the stun when he has Birds over his head or stars?

 

[Lulubop]

I'm still wondering what's the difference between the stun when he has Birds over his head or stars?

Just a visual thing I think, sometimes it's skulls too. Always been a thing

 

[MCD250]

I'm still wondering what's the difference between the stun when he has Birds over his head or stars?

I think it's something like stars is the shortest stun, birds is medium and skulls is the longest. Something like that.

 

[TheSpoiler]

Depending on the game, there can be up to four different types of stunned visualizations, all of which can be broken out of by rapidly pressing left and right on the control pad/stick, or in some cases, added with button mashing.
"Angels" - Angels circling around the dizzied fighter's head indicate that the dizziness can be broken out of quite quickly.
"Bells" or "Birds"- Bells/birds show that there will be some delay before action can be used again.
"Stars" - The most commonly used state, the traditional stars circling around one's head in the SF series indicate that will be a moderate delay before it can be broken out of.
"Reapers" - Reapers circling around a fighter's head shows that he/she has taken quite some damage, and will take a long time to recover. There is not much hope of getting out before the player is attacked again.

So basically Reapers mean you are fucccckkkkkkeeed

 

[Rickenslacker]

I'm still wondering what's the difference between the stun when he has Birds over his head or stars?

The only different stun is Kolin's freeze, otherwise all regular stuns are the same, it's just a little visual variety.

 

[mbpm1]

The stuns used to mean different things in older games, but not anymore

 

[Lulubop]

Can Kolins stun actually kill you?

 

[lucebuce12]

Can Kolins stun actually kill you?

It's chip damage so no.

 

[Foxhound286]

Can Kolins stun actually kill you?

Nope.

 

[Lulubop]

Ohhh

Idiot lag switchers are real. They're pretty rare, but I've met 2 in the last month, and it's so obvious it hurts. I'm guessing they really want to steal my points, but I managed to beat them anyways. And both of them ended up rage quitting as I did so.

How call you tell it's a switch and not the servers just going crap as usual? Is there a way to know?

 

[Moaradin]

I've played against a few, and you can almost always tell. The game will run perfectly fine until they're in a disadvantageous position, and they always suck. They will almost assuredly rage quit as well.

 

[FluxWaveZ]

Because it's extremely erratic in a way the lag in this game doesn't perform in a one-sided manner, meanwhile they are executing combos as if nothing's going on. It smooths out for a few moments, and then goes back to being crazy. I can tell that it's something dubious that they are intentionally doing, even if I've certainly experienced lag in several other situations. Doesn't help that both of them very clearly rage quit when I managed to beat them despite the handicap.

 

[kobu]

when shit like this happens I think it's safe to assume they're lag switching

That's lame as shit. I can never tell and it's really frustrating because, unfortunately, the servers have a tendency to act erratic randomly for me even in battle lounge with a bunch of folks that I know aren't pulling that crap. Gets worse playing casual/ranked, which is why I just quit ranked all together..

 

[spazchicken]

FYI "katitagaribon" = "kati tagari bon" = "kachi tagari bon" = "want to win bon" = "want to win bon (chan)"

That's where Bonchan's twitter handle comes from...pretty confusing for overseas folks.

"kachi tagari" is like the name of Bonchan, Fuudo, etc's Topanga show, I believe.

Thanks for explaining that.

Now I need to find out if that show is translated.

To be honest, no matter the hate Capcom gets for the netcode, I feel I can't shit on any company for their netcode. As someone who is working on different kinds of vs. modes for a twinstick shooter kind of game on my spare time, I see bullets still bouncing around on one screen and not the other, meaning they desynced and shit. Writing netcode is a shitshow and online multiplayer is a blowup!

 

[MrCarter]

Tokido knows that SFIV's netcode was better too

im not alone

He didn't say it was objectively better but it can be improved. Rollback is far better than input-based anyway.

If big developers like Capcom and NRS can struggle with netcode I don't think it's too rare smaller teams won't either. Just make sure you post on GAF with the finished product

 

[MrCarter]

That armour reaction from Snake Eyez was nuts.
