Street Fighter V Beta Thread: Welcome, future '16ers! (Currently Inactive!)

The illuminati talk is hilarious but I'm sure it's false unless I'm part of it and don't know it. I was getting errors like everyone else but once I got in I was able to get in with ease every time I got disconnected

....who the fuck knows.
 
On a random note: I seriously wish I was able to get some replays. Because I had some great matches in with Birdie. I got the hang of him pretty quickly.

Street Fighter fans is more appropriate. God bless us remaining PowerStone/Plasma Sword FGC guys.

I'd say it was possibly down to geographical fuckery. As a sad Canadian paying close attention to the people posting about getting in, it was pretty clear that those in California had much less trouble getting in than elsewhere.

Also the sheer salt buildup of looking at errors for 3 days straight does something to a man. Doesn't surprise me that some people broke inside.
 
Is it over? I've spent maybe ~35 minutes in training, zero matches and several hours pressing the any button

Maintenance all day today, will probably be back up in a day or two. Sounds like Capcom isn't counting the past three days as part of the five full days of beta access they promised.
 
The Illuminati must reside in California, since that's where I and most people I knew who were getting matches live.
 
Just got back home.

So what's the current status? Did they just basically say "Fuck it" and pull the whole thing altogether? Won't be disappointed if that's the case since I'm expecting it.

I dunno man, I live in the middle of the woods in West Virginia and I managed to get in enough to play like 20 matches this weekend.

From a stupid guys perspective


Nah what's most likely is that they found the perfect settings (which was 12am to 1am yesterday, where everyone was getting in and not just whitelist) and now they're going to do that for everyone.

Hopefully.

whitelist has always been a joke for me at least lol

As if there was any doubt to their HQ location. Illuminati--illuminated--light--sunshine--golden coast and the land of the rising sun. Yoooo.
 
Of course there is no whitelist. I got to play for 2 hours solid yesterday playing around 10 games and getting a bunch of training in. EU too so no special treatment. It's first come first serve simple as. If there was a whitelist then every top player would be getting in no problem, look at poor infiltration he struggled to get on. Another thing pissing me off about this thread is people that think this is a demo. It's not. Get it through your heads, this is a beta, a proper beta to test out the network capabilities of the game. Wait until they are a bit more stable, you will get your 5 days of time with it. I for one would much rather them be aware of problems and work on fixes and capabilities and have a smooth phase 2,3 and launch.
 
You're a smart man. Monsters almost got me. I'll be editing video for the next 10 hours. My h.264 whitelist is about to expire.

I wasn't calling you out, I wasn't streaming for a ton of hours trying every second to get in, I tried at different times and got in or didn't (and stopped after like 30 minutes of trying). It makes sense that you got in for longer periods of time than most people did. I did notice this: if the servers didn't reset, I was able to quit one time (accidental) and I was able to login immediately thereafter. It kept my stats (total exp 1900 and exp 950), but if the servers reset, it would go back to 0 and 0 (I would also not be able to login most the time after they reset, unless I lucked out?).

Clearly their current capacity isn't enough.
 
I'm compiling a list of all the winquotes for the beta characters. I'm only missing three at this point.

I need the winquotes for the following:

Birdie def. Chun Li
Birdie def. M. Bison

Cammy def. M. Bison

If you can point me to a video where these quotes are shown, or if you knew them offhand it'd be a big help. A lot of videos like to cut off right when the KO happens, and it's super annoying.
 
I'll be honest, I haven't been this into a Street Fighter game since 3rd Strike. I mean, I like 4, but I didn't have the urge to play 4 religiously.

I can't help you with the quotes, but I wanna thank you for doing this. I love seeing the different things characters say to each other in greeting and winning. Its one of my favorite parts of MKX and I kinda wish Capcom gave unique greetings to different fights, but whatever. The end stuff is fine, although I thought Chun-Li/ Nash ones to each other were kinda lacking.
