Rage Quit Penalty System
Special rage quit player profile icons will appear on profiles with frequent disconnections. Matchmaking logic will take into account online behavior and frequent disconnectors will be matched with similar opponents.

So they're deliberately not touching players' rankings at this point, right?

Training mode settings saved will be very welcome.
Still waiting on the classic single player 8 match mode with cheap ending before I can agree with that.

Still no keyboard rebinds? I have a keyboard warrior friend that refuses to try it until they implement that (very basic) feature. And no he doesn't want to hear about auto-hotkey
What do you mean? If you disconnect right now, you lose a significant amount of points.
Rage quits have become rare now because of this.
man, still working to address RQs a year after launch... didn't MKX have quitalities or whatever on day 1?

So basically, how the game should have launched.
Don't get me wrong, I love the game, but yeesh.

We had a blog update earlier in the month about the Season 2.5 balance changes.
They addressed RQs awhile ago with LP loss. Rarely see them now. This just fixes the icon thing they fucked up with back in December.

Gotta get those PC sales up which are anemic for a mainline SF that's been out a year
239,133 ± 19,516
239,133 ± 19,516
These are mainly fixes for the online as well as the balancing that Capcom wants to test. Giving Player 2 the option for Character Select kind of change would only apply to Versus Mode.

It'll be fixed before the end of the year in another update.

Should fix something simple like ready up for versus mode (for tournaments)
If, and that's a big if, it all works as it is supposed to then this might be the update that brings me completely back to the game. I might try the PC beta to see how well the game runs on my laptop.
Training mode settings being saved. Finally.
Yep, for a tournament oriented game you'd think that would've been a no brainer at launch, but here we are a year after the game launched. The thumbs up have become a staple of SFV at this point lol, it'd probably be wierd not to see them at tournaments.

Interested to see how much faster the "transitions" are, and what they mean when they say "transitions." That post-match stat shit is super annoying.
Long may it continue.

They're talking specifically about the long loading time that occurs when you first enter a match against an opponent online. This will actually also affect local versus when you're playing online, as the game is still doing a slight server check in that scenario.

Funny thing about the transitions between games is I only notice them and am eager for them to move along after a loss.
which is a lot but still...
I assume they mean the pre-match transition. You are definitely going to watch those numbers go up and down after every match always.

I might give it a try just to see what Kolin's like.
Is your Capcom Fighter profile cross platform?

Nope.
Agreed. Hell, let Steam users with the Season 2 Character Pass test out the upcoming characters using the PTR.
Nope.

They ever fix the connection quality bar not showing up for 90% of people in the Battle Lounge?
I think that's what this update is gonna fix.

Right, thanks.
I need to get back into the game to be honest. I stopped playing frequently after Guile released, then had a try of the season 1 characters when Urien released, and Akuma when he came out over Christmas.
I could never decide on a main. I liked Mika, but I didn't like that they removed her wall bounce stuff, I usually play Gief but I missed his banishing flat, Akuma and Ibuki seemed a lot more complicated than they usually are, and Guile seemed strangely combo/execution heavy. Chun, Ryu and F.A.N.G were probably the ones I liked most, but I wasn't that good with them, although my main problem with Chun was that I couldn't do the instant air legs reliably.
