So how long does it usually take to get in the server? I haven't had a chance to play the beta yet and I was hoping to play it today but I keep getting bombarded by a bunch of errors :/
 
7:40PM: We are going to be shutting the servers off briefly for some short maintenance. This may interrupt the current session, but should allow a new group of users to be able to join. We expect to have the server running again around 8:00PM.
Max must have texted him.
 
3 min in and not only did it disconnect, but it completely closed out the game to the dashboard. Why do I get the feeling we are being booted for someone else on the priority list perhaps...

hopefully new group means Canada. Honestly I'd even settle for them just confirming whether we're allowed in or not rather than just being astronomically unlucky.

Okay, that makes sense.

Finally got in with enough time in training mode to try out all the characters, but didn't get a match. That satisfies my curiosity until they get the full beta going properly.

Game looks really slick so far. The artsyle makes the characters look like action figures which is really cool.

They could stand to bump up the AF on the training stage though. Tad blurry toward the back :p
 
Got 3 matches in with Nash, enjoyed it a bit. I would rather stay in training cuz those players were bottom ass. Last match was against Cammy who jumped in every time they possibly could. The whole 2 rds were me doin the hk anti air special, smacking her down, only for her to tech and jump in again. I was 2 trades from 2 perfects.

Then I got booted. Now I cant back in.

Why is it so hard to believe Capcom would give one of a limited number of open spots to someone who can promote the game to a lot of people rather than giving it to someone else? The total number playing the game is still the same, the white list doesn't mean less people can play. It just means he's getting priority and an unfair advantage on getting on
Exactly and from a business perspective it makes sense. As someone who can't get in it benefits ME that Max gets in because he's a quality player and streamer over a random gaffer for example.
 
Well after hours of trying to get in I finally connected but wasn't able to get into a match.

I got to mess around with Ryu and Cammy for a bit before I was disconnected.

Ryu plays exactly as I expected him to. Cammy is so damned fun with her upgraded spinning backfist crossing people up.

I can't get back in now, but it was super cool to see it running on my TV for about 10 minutes.

I lost to a Cammy that did nothing but Cannon Spike. Turbo messed up my stick and I couldn't hold back for some reason. -_-
 
Max must have texted him.

Max : You betta fix dat shit Combofiend. I don't know how, but fix that shit now

Yes, but you need to be in a mirror match to get them.


What's her target combo? I need to practice it once the server goes back up.

back+fierce, then roundhouse. It's a launcher, so you can figure out the rest, but I got 528 damage out of V trigger strike (cross up), target combo, super. You can start the target combo w/ jab, which may be necessary after the strike, I can't remember.

Ive been trying most of the open hours and have had no luck
During the closed beta they had to manually add people in, this is something I know. Realistically they probably initially manually added a small number of users for a minimal stress test before increasing the server load and allowing more people to connect.

This method makes sense as it allows specific accounts to be monitored for individual cases and studies while other data can be monitored from a broad scale.

Not confirming that they actually did this, but from a trouble shooting perspective this makes the most sense to me. I don't get why people are upset to begin with, but this seems like the most reasonable approach to monitoring this situation as numbers increase while still dealing with major issues.

Or maybe I should get my pitchfork and get mad about something
 
you know how

Yes, I'm sure that's it. Max got in before everyon--

7:55PM: The servers have been reset, and are now open again. You can start trying to join.

SPAM X TO PAY RESPECTS

Oh. But certainly it will be just him, nobody here will--


I GOT IN BREHS!

Art also got in early.


I'm in! Let me test out Birdie online!

Oh.
