Reading Comprehension...How do it work?

This is a closed beta, intended strictly to test out netcode and content delivery, so there is no local play or other features (i.e. Fight Money).

so you're saying this was a success? right....... you cant test the netcode fight money downloading new characters if you cant even load the game lmao

this issue they found wont be in the final game is my point so in the end they accomplished nothing this data they collected only effects the beta not the final game

 

[DR2K]

On point.

That's just the rantings of someone with stolkhome syndrome from pressing any button 600 times at the menu screen.

 

[Degen]

if one more person on the internet calls this beta a success... I don't even know

 

[ahdurian]

if one more person on the internet calls this beta a success... I don't even know

it's a success

 

[BizzyBum]

The addict in me booted it up again. They must be doing something with it right now because it goes to the title screen again and you can attempt login.

Yeah, I noticed this as well. Before it was black screen and a few hours later it was title screen. Gives me some hope for play this weekend...

Spoiler

It means nothing

That's the entire point of this Beta.

 

[Fitts]

Disappointed that things have gone the way they have, but the rougher they have it in this "beta" stage the more prepared they'll (potentially) be when the full game launches. Hopefully this is motivation to put the work in and ensure that SFV's online is as strong as it possibly can be.

Yeah, if it launches with these issues than we get the pitchforks out

 

[Smo21]

Now I'm really curious what went wrong. Did the servers blow up or was there something else going on?

 

[ShockingAlberto]

I find it oddly comforting it's happening now.

That means they know better than to have it happen later.

 

[Degen]

Ono apologizes repeatedly for this success

 

[SlaughterX]

Ehh, it says it can't connect to server. Guess I need PS+

I wanted to wait until Destiny came out but I guess I might as well use the 12 month card I've been sitting on for over a year.

 

[k4n3]

That's the entire point of this Beta.

to test the beta? the only reason you have to login to get to the menu is so people dont keep playing the game after the beta closes

i thought the point of betas were to find bugs for the final game.... silly me

 

[direct_quote]

Has capcom openly talked about how they will handle match making and lobbies? We finally getting a rematch button?

 

[Kintaro]

According to some here people over at capcom have considered this beta a rousing success. "Hey, we got SOMETHING, it wasn't anything we intended and we had to postpone this beta in order to fix it, but alright, DATA!"

Well, considering how success for Capcom is few and far between, they will take what they can get. =x

 

[105.Will]

DON'T The servers are down right now.

 

[Seik]

Well, I hope I'll be able to just play the freaking game before Beta 1.0 ends. :lol

Seriously though, I'm sad, after yesterday, I expected things to be fine by tonight and play all night long.

 

[Degen]

The PS4 owners who preordered SFV at the last minute with the intention of canceling it after getting into the beta aren't getting their way right now

in that sense alone, you may call this beta a success

 

[Devid905]

So did anyone get to hear any of the stage music.

Here you go: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lADu88Ea0CE

 

[Dremark]

I feel bad for everyone else but my honeymoon was during the beta so I'm pleased with this news.

Yeah I am away for the weekend too. I felt unlucky it overlapped with the Beta, but seeing how it turned out I'm better off being away.

Hopefully it starts working soon though, I do honestly feel bad for the others who are actually in a position to play it this weekend.

 

[MatrixMan.EXE]

Less than 24 hours and we already have this

LMAO. This is probably the funniest ones I've seen. Hitler went INNNNN.

[jediyoshi]

That's why you lock out the application after the beta from the PS4 app level.

They're able to kill running applications in offline systems at a specific date?

 

[Slaythe]

They're able to kill running applications in offline systems at a specific date?

Yes. If you download it you obviously are online, it locks itself after download completes.

 

[K.Sabot]

They're able to kill running applications in offline systems at a specific date?

if they require the application to ping the PSN service at the start, yes.

 

[Rice-Eater]

They're able to kill running applications in offline systems at a specific date?

I think so, that's what happened with the GGXrd demo. I downloaded it on PS4 and after some time I couldn't use it anymore. I mean I was locked out altogether. Maybe I could have prevented this from not connecting online, but that's going to be hard to not do. If SFV was like that, maybe I would just not connect online just for that.

 

[Smooth Operator]

I think so, that's what happened with the GGXrd demo. I downloaded the it on PS4 and after some time I couldn't use it anymore. I mean I was locked out altogether.

Yes but i don't think they'll go that way with the SFV beta, because GGXrd had a sort of timer you could see on the details of the trial.

I think they'll just close the servers at the end of each phase.

 

[dezzy8]

Lmao. Damn hitler went the fuck in.

 

[MegamanXZero]

Less than 24 hours and we already have this

lmfao

 

[bodine1231]

Lmao. Damn hitler went the fuck in.

"Call Spooky" had me rollin

 

[FiggyCal]

Right. It's not like you have to be online to use training mode in the final version. So this is an awful way to test online functionality.

 

[Son Of D]

Just noticed the thread title.

Call back to the 09ers term lol. SRK can be such elitist douches sometimes. At least they were back then.

I missed this. Was it people getting mad that SFIV was the first SF game for some people?

 

[Gunslinger]

So I am guessing no beta for another week or two. Now that beta 1 has been suspended. I hope they include ken and the new character too.

Better than I thought already

 

[LowParry]

Someone call Spooky.

 

[Neoxon]

I'm liking the menu music. And one part of the song kinda reminds me of Ryu's theme song from Third Strike.

 

[pizzacat]

This unacceptable Capcom! I have spent the last 15 hours hitting every button on my arcade stick trying to log in. I bought a 200$ arcade stick, pre ordered on amazon, quit my job, left my wife all for this beta. Here is my list of demands to rectify this terrible customer service.

• I want SFV and all DLC FREE on both PS4 and PC
• Free PS4 just in case my own dies
• Every SFV arcade stick one month before store release.
• Free trip to Japan and 4 week training with Diago (hotel and food included)
• A spot in the Capcom Pro Tour Finals
• 5 round bye in the Capcom Pro Tour Finals
• Free trip to EVO 2016 (hotel and food included)

Capcom, I don't know how much you know about FGC culture, but I'm an expert. If you don't give me all of this I will forget about it in a week and still buy SFV. Thank you for your time.

Entitled Gamer

this is a joke but some people are being serious


Read something like they should be thankful I'm in the beta


lmao some dudes

 

[specdot]

Less than 24 hours and we already have this

OH. MAH. GAWD!
I lost it at the very end. "Call Spooky." lmao.

 

[VanillaCakeIsBurning]

I remember for the Battlefield 2 demo you could just open up a config file with a text editor and remove the time limit.

 

[MrDoctor]

I missed this. Was it people getting mad that SFIV was the first SF game for some people?

The FGC as a whole was grossly elitist back in '09.

 

[Kysuke]

I'm liking the menu music. And one part of the song kinda reminds me of Ryu's theme song from Third Strike.

are these direct rips or recorded?

if not, has anyone ripped the music files yet?

 

[fader]

Here you go: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lADu88Ea0CE

the sounds of 7 more years of tournament music.

 

[BokehKing]

Oh it's officially suspended?
Did they release a statement?

 

[Imm0rt4l]

Was thinking the same thing

Training stage needs to allow BGM select.

 

[Clawww]

I am sad

 

[Carl7]

Wait, was it suspended for days???

 

[CoyoteSpitfire]

Wait, was it suspended for days???

The beta is now TBA.

 

[Aokage]

OK, what killed me is the YES button prompt.

YES.
