when i say they i mean the publisher. who is working with the developer (meaning both parties new about this shit)
its insane that sony wouldn't have held back a few weeks considering the stupid bad pr everyone got over this stuff

Yeah, whoever greenlit this (Sony/Capcom, a combination of both) wasn't thinking this through. The timing of the release was made to coincide with Evo 2015, which in turn was meant to increase the presence of the PS4, which in turn would've led nicely into people talking about SFV all the better.

Botching this release meant going back to the 360 for Evo and is probably giving everyone in the FGC a bad taste in their mouth regarding SFV and Sony's involvement in the franchise.

I was just clarifying what happens on the dev level. A lot of hate was thrown at the dev for this release, and it very well may be just incompetence, but the vast majority of the time devs of broken games actually do know how broken their game shipped.

/me looks at all the SF5 media released today.

What's an SF4?
 
This just proves that the game will be what they promised, at some point. They just released the unfinished product for stupid reasons and earned themselves some horrible PR. Why won't game companies learn?
 
ugh so tempted. they should put up a "we're sorry" flash sale lol

That would just piss off people that already bought it more lol. They could retroactively provide a partial refund equal to the sale.
Nah. Probably not worth it.
 
Exactly as I expected to happen and stated in the "this port sucks" thread a few weeks back. Just wait boys, before you know it this will be considered the definitive version.

Important notes: USF4 PS4 dev team has worked to improve input consistency. 1-frame links should feel much more consistent.
Huh! Did they add a buffer?!

What is preventing the PS4 from having less input lag then the 360 version?
A bad port, also, 0.2 frames at 60fps might as well be a calculation error. They do multiple tests and don't always get the exact results, they go for the average.

Check the display lag link for all games and see the comparison then you will get some idea. Its not big diff between 5.1 and 5.3 mostly and matches GG xrd lag so its fine. Reasons could be optimization especially when its done by different developer completely and they thought this 5.3 is good enough to release the update quickly for now.

Further optimization?

Nice to see the game get patched in a timely manner for those that bought it Day 1. Patch culture needs to stop tho...and sadly it will not.

WOW, great to hear. Time to get this version as the go to for the championships after one more patch! Do you guys think they will switch back?

Highly unlikely. Perhaps for the Capcom Cup Finals.

That's a silly comment and sentiment. Buy this game at launch and wait it out while they finally get it to the state they promised at launch. That's basically what you are advocating and that is foolish. Game should have launched as advertised, not taken weeks post launch, after already getting a chunk of sales AND losing its position as the version being played in the pros to almost get there.
