all they had to do is make a training mode that attempts matchmaking just like sf4. was that too much to ask for. I mean what do they gain from me having to log in to enter training room besides just not wanting me to play a tiny portion of the full game for free.

 

[Hag]

Even capcom-unity.com is down. Is all of this running on Combo's laptop?

Time to call spooky

 

[Soulflarz]

Are Capcom the ones in charge of the servers or is Sony?

Does anyone know?

Capcom, judging by their updates and not sony's.

 

[Hasney]

I can imagine how it's going to be on launch day. I'll wait a couple months after launch and grab it for a good price and be able to play online with no problems.

I'm not nervous at all. I'm glad this is happening now because this is a real beta and this will help them make it work on launch day.

Probably won't pre-order as that's not my thing, but Day 1 or 2 if there's a good deal out there? Oh hell yes.

 

[Spinluck]

Well, at least the title screen looks really nice and clean.

It really does. :3

Spoiler

That's the nicest thing I can say about this beta so far

 

[Dubz]

Shouldve made training available offline

then again, doubt they expected this at all.

Training mode being tied to being online seems kinda weird. Let me learn Chun Li, Capcom!

*Takes longer than usual*

''No...no...IS IT HAPPENING?!''

*Error 21007*

''FUCK!! NOOOOOOOO!''

Uhh, the whole reason they're doing this 9 months out is so this DOESN'T happen at launch.

Plenty of games have had rough stress tests that resulted in successful launches.

 

[G-Fex]

Got some sick combos with Chun-li and trying to do a falling hurricane kick to light shoryuken from 3rd strike

 

[Nuts.Pistachio_Nuts!]

Woah I just got in after 2 days of trying!

Tells us. what's it' like on the other side?

 

[Teknoman]

Yup training should have definitely been offline. Even the manual times out.

 

[k4n3]

i knew i wouldn't get my hands on this game till Monday i bought into the false hope they might of actually fixed things .... if the server limit is that small they should of at least had a queue system and kick AFK players that get into training mode and just stay in all night

 

[Beelzebufo]

Wow, just as I was about to go outside I got in. And people wonder why Americans are obese. Thanks, Crapcom.

 

[Hasney]

There's a resident here on my Tropico island that looks like Hulk Hogan. I think I need the secret police to take him out.

 

[Rice-Eater]

You think we should be able to earn fight money according to how many times we press any button? I think many of us are in the 10,000+ range by now. That's gotta be at least one character.

 

[galvenize]

Has anyone posted on youtube the music that plays during training mode yet?

 

[Saint Gregory]

Been in the training room for a half hour with no matches and I'm not even mad

 

[Squishy3]

i still fully expect servers to die on launch day but it won't matter because i can just play training or local versus or arcade or whatever

i want to see if the netcode is garbage or not with my own two eyes, can't trust anybody else's opinions on online until i see it for myself

 

[G-Fex]

shame I can't stream it

Same.

Oh well least it's fun to practice.

BRB trying M. Bison again

I feel like I am doing a community service with the number of times I've pressed this

-_-

edit: Back up. Some great posts over there.

Ahahaha. That guy is the biggest moron I've hear from today. I should send him a certificate.

 

[delSai]

Same here lol

 

[hitsugi]

Capcom's fear of players remaining in training mode was likely the catalyst of this.

 

[rec0ded1]

What if its all behind an online wall like this beta is

 

[Houndi101]

Same here lol

Third

most exciting thing to happen so far is I've mapped hp+he to r3

That's what the beta is. Part of what they are testing is the matchmaking. You have to log in for matchmaking to work.

Yikes, some people are fucking insane.

Before I move my ps4 into the other room to play, how's it working so far?

Can you tell me some? I couldn't really figure out that many besides st. mp> cr. mk > legs

It hasn't been

Someone will make an excuse for why it had to be this way which is bullshit. They could have simply made it so you had to be logged in to Playstation Network just like the free plus games we download. Most of us would be content at least sitting around in training room practicing hoping to get matched up with an opponent than this bullshit.

 

[Mupod]

This is literally all I want. For the next beta they should definitely give us this option, if anything I bet it'd lessen the load on the servers.

 

[Durden77]

Their servers are "at capacity". So it's going to be very tough to get in right now.

It's not

meanwhile ive been spamming 'any key' for the last 40 min and have yet to get in.... great system capcom

 

[Karsticles]

Before I move my ps4 into the other room to play, how's it working so far?

It isn't. Error code 21007, which means servers are at max capacity. We estimate server capacity to be 100 people by how quickly it filled up.

Kinda surprised Sony isn't stepping up to help them out. At least it doesn't seem like they are.

 

[RedAssedApe]

pre-order cancelled!

it won't be because then the game couldn't be played at tournaments

 

[notworksafe]

thanks for the heads up. i'll keep the ps4 here and just play pc games til its letting people in again

 

[Grakl]

pre-order cancelled!

Lol, why?

 

[Aaronrules380]

So as a SF newbie in general, anyone know if the Beta lets you change the control scheme or anything? I only have a gamepad, no stick

 

[Smo21]

11:20: We have identified an issue with the servers and will be implementing a fix. The servers will go down momentarily as we implement it.

Welp

They can throw more engineers on it, but you've kind of got to do this when it's code and not infrastructure that's the issue. Just slowly crank up the dial until you reach breaking point. We've had to do it a few times at work.

It does.

That's not an immediate process.
