A lot of this stuff is the stuff required to make SFV's economy viable, the game is now kinda approaching the state it should have launched in.

Wish they'd add a ranked match lobby but I get the feeling we'll be left waiting for that one...

Haven't really been into a Street Fighter game since the Alpha days, but at €34.99 for the Deluxe Edition on PS4 I couldn't say no. What's the best way to get into the game and learn the techniques? Are the tutorials as good as something like Killer Instinct of am I better off just looking up videos?

chopperbyrne · 24-08-2016 4:38pm

The tutorials in SFV aren't bad, but they're not great either.

I'd say do the tutorials and challenges for the character you want to use.

The just jump into online matches.

Doctor DooM · 24-08-2016 10:20pm

Vesper arcade does a whole load of good online tutorials on youtube.

If you're into Reddit, Gief's gym is good too.

If you want to head online, record a couple of vids and post them here we can also chime in on what we think you need to work on

Oh and pick Ryu. Has a bit of everything, easy to play, top tier, if you want to learn SF he's your man.

So apparently Capcom finally cracked down on people who used the 1 round survival mods or whatever to unlock colors/fight money. If you unlocked stuff in too short a space of time you lose all the FM you earned, but you keep the colors.

You are also locked out from legitimately earning that FM again. I'm seeing reports of folks losing 800k of FM and whatnot!

Anyone get hit with this?

Capcom took my hard earned FM but left the illegitimate obtained stuff

....unreal

Sairus · 31-08-2016 1:02pm

If you earned all the FM, then spent it in the store and bought all the costumes, characters and stages you also got to keep those.
Get ****ed when they want to buy Urien though!

Azza · 31-08-2016 1:11pm

Will check this when I get home. Have the season pass so Urien's not an issue for me. But Capcom are beyond stupid locking the colors behind survival mode.

Stupid move by a stupid company.

Nope, I got away scot-free! I knew they wouldn't truly be able to keep track of it.

Azza · 01-09-2016 1:24pm

Capcops busted me for like 30,000FM but I think the balance of FM is about 1 million in my favor for using the 1 round survival mod and I got to keep everything.

Got a warning that if I do it again they could disabled my CFN which is fine but they also said the would get my steam ID banned which sound absolutely nuts. They can f*** off if they think they can ban my steam ID which has 258 games linked to it. I'm sure they don't have the authority to do that.

You mean a VAC ban? Those are no joke. But that's all automated on STEAM's side afaik.

Dreddybajs · 02-09-2016 2:22am

Absolutely zero chance they can get anyone a VAN ban. They're talking nonsense.

Sairus · 23-09-2016 4:28pm

If you expected this thread to get a new title promptly then Urien for a big surprise.
Side note, LP, MK, HP is the best.

K.O.Kiki · 24-09-2016 3:10am

So Capcom's latest PC update broke key mappers (needed to get Direct-Input support), prevented the game from working properly, and installed a bloody rootkit.

I'm done.
D O N E

Uninstalled SFV.

See you in better games.

If it's any consolation, they rolled back the insane rootkit thing already.

... I am still pissed that 6 months after release neither of my sticks work in SFV yet though.

Sabre0001 · 24-09-2016 12:21pm

Apparently Urien's undergone some changes

The fact that they implemented all these patches to get people to play their terrible Survival Mode before fixing input methods is just plain BS.

I ain't giving them another cent for SFV.

AFAIK you still have to have the knowhow to go get rid of it yourself, the rollback apparently won't clean out the files.

Oh yeah. I had to do that earlier. I'm obviously not defending Capcom about anything in this situation.

Every character patch has been about that!

Sairus · 26-09-2016 1:07pm

I've been kinda getting back properly into playing this now. Holy **** battle lounges that work are a ****ing god send. Instantly made the game more fun for me. See you later, ranked!
(Yes, I have been away from playing it properly that long)

Ranked is better now too since the two out of three option hit, imo.

It's significantly less annoying to play

Usually it's updating in rest mode. Was away and came back and said I'd try out urien. Had no idea they were that big
