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

Isn't Charlie supposed to be a charge character?

No, this surprised me too. Was awkward as hell playing him for the first time at SDCC until I figured it out.
The dude playing against me got a few free wins as my attempted flash kicks ended up being early jumping roundhouses and attempted sonic booms ended up being whiffing hard punches
 
Pre-ordered on Amazon right now and got my code seconds later. Hooray for fast service.

But... Why do I need to download the game and an update which are both the same size of 1.409gb. I just don't get it.
 
So, how does the Amazon thing work? Does it take your money as soon as you pre-order or will it wait till SFV is out?

Amazon never charges pre-order orders until they ship. You can order, download beta, play beta ,forget about order almost all the way near release and cancel order for no cost. Just preorder download beta and cancel order tomorrow.
 
I for one am glad Charlie is not a charge character cause I'm absolute ASS with charge characters lol.

You and me both. I love that fighting style's normals though. Nash in this game is like a perfect character for me. He has the most target combos too. Love everything about him on paper.

Here's hoping I'm not garbage with him anyway for some reason.
 
Getting "Disconnected from game server." and "Unable to connect to Update server." messages.

This is true, downloading the beta client is live, but the service is down for another 3 hours

Seems like we'll have to wait a bit more then. My friend had already downloaded the client so this was another e-mail he was talking about, I think. Either way, less than 3 hours folks.

I'm convinced charlie was made a charge character so that he plays nothing like Guile when both are released.

You mean was not made a charge character* :P

Sweet! Thanks for that! Much appreciated. :)

I never pre-ordered from there before, so I was a bit cautious towards it. Hopefully I make it on time!

If I do. See you guys randomly online! B)
 
Just downloaded the game...keep getting a server error...

Let me guess...I can't play if I don't have PS+...right? =_=
 
Oh...sorry about that guys.

Stupid me...I was looking more at a PS+ FAQ in the OP than the starting point of the beta. :lol
 
Damn I just realized I'm gonna have to play Bipson on the PS4 controller.

I can't play charge character on anything but arcade sticks for the life of me looool.
 
If I pre order after the beta has started, like tonight, when I get home from work, will I still get to play the beta?

Also, if Charlie's not charge, then what is he?
 
I hope everyone realizes as soon as it turns 9 the servers are going to crash and be down for hours, right?

I'm torn, fighting games are a real niche, vs an online PC game so I feel like it might not be that bad.

It will be broken for sure
