Not saying they aren't part of being responsible. But it seems like most people are just completely ignoring Sony.
I hope Capcom does work this out with Sony. Forcing down a shit version of the game down on the community is just BS.
Exactly. Which is why I think we're going to have a lot of problems heading into evo.
Yeah, is not a bug, it's a FEATURE
Yeah really, if they can ship the game with the main menu screen crawling and think that's ok, I don't know how they can handle the finer adjustments that need to be made. It's ridiculous, really.
I'm trying to figure out why people think a budget port, by a mediocre team, whose marketing consists of a single blog post, would be patched anyway.
There's more evidence to the contrary.

Meanwhile at Nintendo Q/A:
I said it before, but the whole fact that this game was going to launch this month actually caught me by surprise because they made such little mention of it for months. And then a Playstation blog broke the news... Like this was never seriously going to be a good port and I feel dumb getting hype about it.

I wouldn't worry at all about V. This was outsourced to a horrible company. V isn't.

SF5 will probably be fine, but the first appearance for SF on PS4 does not look good.

I'm guessing Capcom knew it was a mess and that's why we basically never saw it before today.

Too much pressure from their business partners. Evo ain't gonna be happy about this. Nor other TO's.

Yah it feels like Capcom is trying to do everything dirt cheap now. DMC4:SE has a ton of recycled animations among the "new" playable characters, and only 1 new costume for each character. They want to minimize as much risk as possible in terms of investing a lot of money with little to no payoff ...

I had no clue this wasn't handled by Capcom. No way a single dime of my money would have went to this had I been aware. Now I feel like I should have checked up on it beforehand.
Guess that much is my own fault. No wonder we didn't see any real info or footage of this before release. That should have been a sign, but my dumb ass didn't read the writing on the wall.

Good point. Capcom has been pretty big about showing off builds in progress to the fighting game community except for this. I have to admit, I missed the original news Other Ocean was porting it. Given the PS4 similarity to PCs, I assumed this would be straightforward with the PC version having been cleaned up.
They'll outdo High Voltage by making a patch that somehow trims the roster to the original SF4 roster

The major issue is the input lag.. which will not be noticed at all by most. I've been able to pull off all of my bnb evil ryu combos and have only noticed slight lag that i would with any game day one online(look at GGXrd and MKX). The other issues are IMO minor and easily fixed with a patch. People need to calm down seriously and give them a chance to respond. Lmao @ Press Start though.

I don't get the meaning of this post at all.
I can't believe they've MCC'd this port.

Other Ocean ported it. Pretty sure that's why it's drowning.
Pretty sure everything will be sorted out soon.

The Captain is happy to work at someone who still has standards for Q/A.
It just stands out more and more as other big companies degrade.

Agreed, It's unacceptable, its the entire point of the game.
I'm not busying this until its patched.
Though I have a feeling even with patches wit will never be a 1:1 match for the old version.
I mean, Capcom seems to not be doing great financially so I understand the risk aversion.
You think Sony cares about EVO? The players are the ones that want the very best version of the game to play. Sony just wants the game to be played on a platform they own. The two goals aren't mutually exclusive, if they're related at all. USFIV is functional on PS4 and for Sony, the buck might just stop there, honestly.
Like, this is before we even factor in the fact patches cost money (so they're going to assess whether the investment is worth it) and that they would probably need to do multiple to get the game where it needs to be, because when was the last time you played a game that needed an update and only got one?
Nintendo QA the living fuck out of their games, no matter if they're full AAA releases or ports of old games. And they don't farm them out to no-name studios to to quick/cheap ports
So you get games like Majora's Mask on the 3Ds being in development longer than it took to make the original N64 game. Compare and contrast Nintendo ports to MCC or this.

Okay so I got to play the port and... it's not as bad as I feared. It's definitely playable. All the high-execution stuff still works.
It does need a patch though, especially in the presentation area.
To its credit (and sometimes its downfall), Sony is a very forward-thinking company. I'm sure they're looking at SFV becoming a prominent e-sports title, and anticipating the association which comes with that.

He's a Smash character now, as tragic as it may be.
On the other hand it's steady work.

The Splatoon test from Saturday tells me otherwise.

It doesn't look like organizers will have a choice. It's either the PS4 USF4 version and pro tour, or 360 version and no pro tour. You would hope that capcom/sony has the decency to let CEO/EVO play on the 360 if the PS4 version isn't adequate, but I have my doubts.

Dat Sony Third-Party Production Collabs™ excellence at work, y'all.
I just don't get it. How did they botch up a port of a game that should have otherwise been piss-easy? Maybe this is good news they've been busy as hell on SFV and readying a damn nice demo for E3, b/c if not, Sony's dropping the ball hard.
That is all.

I don't like the idea that some people are putting forth of "well...I should have seen this coming, it's partially my fault I guess."
I get what you're saying as it's a bad port house, but a publisher putting out a shoddy buggy game after advertising it as a definitive, tournament-standard version is not the fault of the customer. It's not your fault you didn't "see" a bad product coming before release. It's a publisher's job to put out a good product that lives up to how they marketed and advertised that product.
Being "tricked" into buying a poor port on day 1 isn't the fault of the person buying it. That doesn't mean you shouldn't be extremely cautious (especially these days) about day 1 purchases, but it's shame on the developer and publisher, not shame on you.

You think Sony/Capcom are just going to let bad publicity go out of control just for the sake of using the PS4 version at EVO?
I don't know about that. Either the version will get patched real quick or EVO and other TO's will use a different version of SF4.
it depends on how long capcom has known about the serious problems with the game. if they knew a month ago then they might be able to make it before evo but ceo is probably screwed.
Nintendo fans brah.
