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

Was hoping I would be able to play with friends, but I'm still pretty excited to try this. Didn't get that into SF4 but I've been liking what I saw about this.

Will probably try Nash and Bison until Cammy/Birdie are added.
 
I'm going to focus on Ryu and Nash for the beta. Hopefully the next one will have that Necalli character. I'm so excited to try it out tomorrow this weekend I will be grinding it out alot.
 
I was wrong about the PS3 stick thing. My bad. They are "looking into it", but no confirmation as of yet.

"Looking into it" ain't good enough cause I'm not trying to buy another $200 TE stick mayng. :/
Unless I find a TE2 for dirt cheap and that's not happening.
 
I'm liking a lot of what I'm seeing in SFV mixing all the things that make Street Fighter great. Except for SF4, there was nothing I like about the game.
 
Vesper has also been doing character specific breakdowns in preparation of the beta as well. He made videos for Cammy M. Bison and Nash so far. There are even combos in the description of each video to get you started.

Looking at the Cammy video, I absolutely love Ryu's stance change animation when they're talking about her first command normal. If someone could gif it I'd really appreciate it.

I'm fairly certain PS3 sticks will work with the final release. Of course, I splurged on a TE2 just to avoid any potential headache.

Plus, I hated having to keep the DS4 on in order to use a PS3 stick for USF4. Got annoying after a while.
 
It's gonna be rough trying to play with just the DualShock 4. Hopefully Capcom adds PS3 stick compatibility in the final build (& hopefully later beta phases). While I know that they're looking into it (& USF4 using PS3 sticks has me hopeful), a straight confirmation would be appreciated to rest any potential fears.
 
Looking forward to trying this out when I have some time over the weekend. I'm really going to try getting into this game despite not having much more than basic contact with fighting games. Sort of worried how I'll do with just the PS4 controller since I can't afford a fightstick at the moment, but hopefully it won't be too bad.
 
Beta HYPE! No sleep Thursday-Monday. Girlfriend is out of town and I'm going to marathon it all weekend.

Hope it works smoothly.
 
Hadn't received code from amazon.ca yet. Was worried I wouldn't get the code in time. Apparently it's a common issue (codes not going out) and chat got me the code in seconds. Already redeemed. Can't wait.
 
Can't wait to play this again, sad to hear cammy will be delayed until saturday :( will give me some more quality time with the other characters though.
 
I hope there will be lots of bad players for me to challenge. Everyone in USFIV online is from EVO.
Worry not warrior, for you are guaranteed at least one bad player to challenge lol. I look forward to gettin bodied by errybody n they mamas.
 
Question, is it possible to pre-order from Amazon right now and get the beta code and then cancel the preorder?

You can preorder from Amazon and cancel before they charge you. I have no idea how long it takes them to send you a code. More likely than not you will be fine and get the code sooner rather than later.

I know it's a beta and a early, vertical slice of the game, but no PS3 stick support is ass backwards. Come on.

As far as they are concerned this is to test netcode. It isn't meant to be a demo, I'm sure they don't care if you play on a stick or a pad for this. At least they said they were looking into adding PS3 stick support to the final release.
