What does participation mean here?

Those of us who download the Beta with the full intentions to play but never got passed the Error Codes at the Start Screen (like me) or those of you who were lucky enough to get at least 1 match done in the Beta?

Probably participation in the next beta.
 
Kinda glad this happened. Sucks, but hopefully next time the majority of people can at least see what the characters look like on their tv or monitor. Now to wonder how long "indefinite" turns out to be. I'd guess mid-August.
 
I fully expect the beta reward to be a throwaway title.

Anyone on the East Coast managed to get on? I probably won't be on for the next week due to exams.

I'm east coast and in the last few days I managed to get around 35 matches and some hours stuck in training mode purgatory. But I'm also a part of the Illuminati.
 
Interesting metaphor when you consider my nails are sharp enough to peel an apple :P


"that guy"? XD
I doubt you'd get Necali this early but Ken's possible :3

What kind of nails do you have D:
But yeah, I hope we can try out Ken earlier than expected (don't really give a crap about Necalli TBH lol)

What defines a person again as the Fighting Game Illuminati? Skill?
 
We understand how frustrating it is to be so close to playing the game you are excited for, and to not have it working.

Am I late to the "but I thought this was the point of the beta, that the beta was doing its job /s" party?

I'm fine w/ it being postponed mostly because I had 9 matches and want to play when things are a little more polished. But the struggle to get in was horrible, and I feel awful for those who had less success than I did (or no success at all).

Makes sense considering they still don't seem to have their shit together at all when it comes to their online infrastructure.
 
US player. The Beta keeps giving me the "not available" message when I try to get into the menus. Is this something on my end, or is it actually still unavailable?
 
I think the beta postponement should be its own thread if it isn't already. I imagine a lot of people are still trying to get in.

All I know is that if I'm in it, it ain't skill.
 
The last video I watched of Mike Ross on youtube was the most struggle shit I have ever seen. How's this?
I think the guest makes it watchable - and it's worth watching for the match at the end where the guys puts what he has been taught to the test*.

Noob question but I want to re-buy street fighter 4. I see gamestop has an ultra street fighter 4 for PS3 for 19.99 new. Is that version with all dlc fighters?

I don't see how the quote and your comment are mutually exclusive.

The beta sorta did do its job. With the experience and the data they did receive, they learned that the project still needs work. All gravy for the final product.

That doesn't mean they're oblivious to the fact that folks really wanted to play SF5 eight months early.

PS3 disc version has ALMOST everything. Doesn't have animal costumes(?), if I recall.

PS4 version has absolutely everything, though.
