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

I'm kind of anxious about buying a PS4 stick right now after that dude did the input lag tests on PS4. Some of the numbers seem pretty rough, and I don't want to have to take apart my stick and solder stuff just to use the PS360+ PCB.
 
Looking forward to playing my first Street Fighter game! The only fighting games I've ever played were Injustice and a bit of Mortal Kombat on the PS3. I want to get into one though and this looks slick. If any of you come up against somebody who has no idea what they are doing then there's a chance it might be me :)
 
If you just want the beta, why not just preorder through the play station store? You'll be able to download the beta automatically, and it's not like you can't cancel it later
 
It's going to be so weird not having focus. lol

I've played tons of SFIV and I suck but I could never get used to the focus stuff. I was ecstatic when I read that it's gone.

I'm looking forward to watching some streams tonight to see how this is turning out. I hope we get a non $200 fight stick for PS4.

What stick do you have? Only thing I had to solder was the usb line, which is optional. Other than that it was just run wire and screw it in.

pc version my friend.
 
bummed that Ken is not in for the first beta. Really looked like the most fun character so far with that crazy dash. Will have to stick to Ryu and parry jump ins I guess.
 
I enjoy fighting games, but I mostly suck at them. So I guess I'll have fun getting my ass kicked later.

When you pre-order through PSN you get charged upfront. No refunds.

Which game and fight sticks did they test?

Don't you have to pay $60 right then and there to pre-order on the PS store? People probably are skeptic at dropping $60 even if they can cancel.
 
so excited to see the game in person at last

feels like such a long way to go still

I hope it's not too fun or the wait until release/next beta will be painful

Doesn't show up in US Amazon. Hori sticks are $150, Mad Catz are all $200 basically. Weren't the original, non TE Fight Sticks for last gen like $80?

My plan to play locally with two ps4s seems to be not working, there will be no private matches in this beta... =(

yeah, seems to be a net code and content delivery test primarily.
 
Alrightalrightalright! Looking forward to getting my ass kicked by Gaff'ers tonight. I think I might even do a first for me, play as Ryu online. If ya'll see any Jetman's playing Birdie's go easy with that fireball action!

To add to this, the cheapest I've seen the MadCatz FightStick Pro was $90 on a major event stream. It had Sanwa Parts, but smaller/redesigned/lighter than the original TE.
 
Expected.

What I didn't realize was it's not region specific, so I expect lots of lag. On the plus side, I might get to play a match with Daigo! =P

Region specific wouldnt do me good since I am in Europe using a US region account!
I just hope I get a stable match where I can actually connect moves and play proper. Its 3 hours till it opens right? I dont think I will stay wake for that.
 
A friend just told me he received an e-mail stating the Beta was live. I can't confirm this right now since I'm not close to my PS4. Anyone?
