This is actually a very important question you asked, and is at the heart of as to why SFV's DLC can be so sporadic. The blog post alluded to this 'issue', but essentially, they push out updates as a part of a new build, and once the scope-set of a build is locked, its very hard to pull things out of it. They can add things to what is going to be a part of a push, but once its in there, spinning them out of it can prove to be very difficult.
Maybe Laura should get a visit from the bat bros instead of getting stronger

The new CFN beta is good news. While an improvement, the first beta had enough issues to make the new CFN feel more like a patch and not the "rebuilt from the ground up" solution they're promising.
I honestly don't care about the new character being delayed as long as the reveal is soon. There's a low chance I'd main them regardless. However, it'll suck if their release overlaps the Rev 2 release.

So this means that "smaller" updates would become easier to make?

new CFN with the same old netcode
sounds like fun

They don't re-work the netcode ?

Someone in the other topic mentioned they might be doing something different with the updates since they have a new CFN. I think the beta got a patch and it wasn't one of those in-game ones.
Maybe a couple of visits.
Rog needs one too. Like every damn hour.

The netcode is fine aside from the desync lag issue. And since I've never seen Capcom acknowledge that shit even exists I'm not holding out for a fix.

Don't work at Capcom. Have lots of colleagues all over the industry though.

I wonder if this means the netplay is gonna be delay-based instead of rollback
Capcom, get your shit together.
Just my speculation! I could be totally wrong.
No, CFN is the matchmaking, stat tracking, etc. shit. Once the match starts the same old netcode is used which is rollback.

nah this netcode trash
these servers trash
cfn can be as pretty as it wants, but if the online is still plays like a DBZ classic then miss me with that tbh

No, it means that, lets say I have a build where the CFN Update & the new character are going to be launched in, and the CFN Update runs into issues and needs to be worked on more. Because the new character was part of that build, it becomes increasingly challenging to just spin out the new character from the CFN Update, rather than just launching the build they are both being worked on when they're ready.
Won't be June. Character 4 should be launching in June still, however.

I'll quit playing online if that's the case. Though they should be taking care of the goddamn rollback. Literally fix that Capcom and we good.
She's already robust!
I think the netcode is fine apart from the rare one-sided rollback issues. Hopefully they can iron that out following this years beta's on the new CFN.

Aaahh, I see. Thanks for clearing that up!
The one sided rollback is a HUGE issue though.
I read that line as simple referring to the 2.1 balance changes which are additional to the original Season 2 balance changes. Check out the preceding sentences.

As a historical aside - this was why Ibuki got delayed last year; the build she was meant to launch in also had much of the asset set from the cinematic story mode. Since that was running behind, that meant the build she was meant to launch in was also running behind, which is why she ultimately got pushed to when she did.

r/Kappa provided John D. with some examples when he asked on twitter. The response was that they'll look into it.
that's unfortunate. Not sure what they can actually do there

tbh the delay is a good thing tho.
they definitely had to let some of those new animations cook a bit longer because that Cammy air throw looks like it was done by a child

Yeah, it's bad, but I feel like it's the kind of issue that people can believe is more widespread than it actually is. If you're playing a fighting game online and it's a little laggy most people don't give a shit because that's the nature of the beast. If you're playing SFV online and it's a little laggy and you're getting bopped then suddenly you're 100% sure your opponent's connection is fine while you take the lag.
at least they would be honest with us if they kept it like that then Kappa
That's only Zombegoast. For me, the issue is more about never really knowing if your wins are legit, because I've run into plenty of gaffers who weren't feeling any lag while my side was pretty bad. It's common enough that it really taints the multiplayer experience.
Zombegoast takes all the one-sided rollback so we don't have to. The hero we need and deserve.
Like...is my normal/special actually spaced so people aren't able to punish it, or is it just 1 frame of lag preventing it from being punishable? I've definitely had some fuckery where I can't actually confirm I hit someone and cancel into a v-trigger, so everytime somebody misses something, anywhere, i start wondering if it's rollback.

Feeling what? They're still getting all the content that was promised them this year. The character release time-table wasn't even known when the Character Pass 2017 went on sale. And while its unfortunate that its getting pushed to May, its not like the rest of the character time-table has changed as a result.
As a player of the game, i'm more alleviated that Capcom isn't going to release something in a sub-par state, especially when its something as vital to the game as the CFN/Netcode implementation.
Nice, thanks for the confirmation.
I got another good guess in. lol
Season 2 Passholders have no excuse this time though. Capcom didn't even tell them what the characters were!

Just for the love of god Capcom please make sure it isn't Byron.

Sucks that there's a delay, but honestly I am happy that they are putting in the work to get CFN to where it needs to be. Hopefully the delay is not long and it will be worth the wait.

if its byron im gonna be a tekken/injustice player going forward
unless byron is dope
If it's another story mode character, I won't buy the next season pass unless they tell us the characters beforehand.

The only way Byron is going to be good is if he's like A Team level ham and has a theme like that. ANd someone mentioned Marduk from SFxT so yeah play like that and maybe Capcom can get away with it.
Maybe.
But I sure as fuck won't spend money on that SP.

As long as he isn't as slow as Marduk
I had to remove him from my team with King because they made him a tank
