I still think Capcom deserves some blame. They are in a deal with Sony to host their flagship game at the biggest tournament in the world. How they didn't even check in on this baffles me.

Damn, hope SF5 don't be a performance clusterfuck as USF4 was, people would be so pissed.

Is not a problem of the game not running well or bad (well kinda is), but the game has laggy controls, bugs and other problems (bad online).
Is beyond a engine not performing welll and goes directly into "someone made a fucking bad job here".
Is mostly Sony's fault, they produced the port and gave it to a third party studios with not exactly the best portfolio, probably because they were cheaper than more reputable studios.
In short: A mess.

Wait, did Sony develop this or Capcom? Who do I blame here? I just assumed it was Capcom's work.
Can't rely on 'if's' with tournament as big as EVO.
Sony hired a shit studio to do the port, neither Capcom or Sony seemed to care if the port was actually good or not. Both are to blame.

It was Other Ocean, who was hired by Sony. Capcom's been on damage control.

Really? Why was Capcom reluctant to developing it? I could understand why Sony has been forced to port games themselves for the Vita, but I imagined that wouldn't happen on a better selling platform like the PS4.

Because they always manage to fuck something up.

The PS4 version was supposed to fix all the problems with the PS3 version. Whoops.

SF5 is being done in house while USF4 was outsourced to a poor port team.
Capcom are tied up with a lot of projects of their own.

Sony outsorcered this to Other Ocean, a studio with a very underwhelming curriculum on his back.
I guess part of the deal is that Capcom didn't have to use their own resources and just get the check of the sales.
I don't think they are too happy that Sony dirtied their IP though.

Beyond embarrassing for Sony and Capcom, but particularly Sony.

Are you going to keep trolling this topic? You are very well aware why this had to happen from the other thread. Don't play dumb.
PC is a hassle for tournament. Changing sticks and stuff can be terrible.
Wednesday Night Fights used it for a while, took forever to set up a match.
Capcom is developing SFV. How can Sony fuck that up?

Yeah, I just said it because it would be a bit strange (and remind people of PS4 USFIV's problems) if there were ads for SFV during a tournament being played on Xbox 360.
I don't know how the EVO deals work though obviously. Either way (as I said before), this has been a huge mess.
This is a screw up but to be honest with you. In a couple of months I doubt people will even care. With SFV getting exposure at CEO, E3, and Evo. People will be too hyped for that. By the time SFV releases this will be a minor blip on the radar.
Cert doesnt check for quality. It checks that it works on the minimum level aka not breaking the Ps4 and screwing up the OS etc.

Logistics. Try hosting a 2000+ people open tournament on PC.

Why wouldn't it pass cert? It technically works. Cert isn't checking to see if the game is actually any good or if that version is playable at a level like Evo.
The two guys who run Sonys QA who also double as the firmware team are very busy this time of year, leave 'em sleeping
Seriously...Certification in my experience works on a priority matrix. What they would have experienced wouldnt have been enough to fail it but I HIGHLY doubt all this shit wouldnt have been reported in the documentation

Tbh I don't think Sony or Capcom give a shit, or else they wouldn't have hired Other Ocean.

Why wasn't it just developed in tandem with the other versions last year?

This is likely part of the larger SFV deal with Sony, which probably wasn't finalized at this time last year.
Capcom clearly cares considering they've been upfront about not using the PS4 version for the CPT.
Isn't 'Press the Start Button' an automatic fail when the PS4 controller doesnt a start button?
Why people ask this?
How do you think BF4, AC Unity, Bethesda games and countless of other games pass the certification test on consoles?
I don't know exactly, but try watching some older WNF sessions. I guess people bringing all kinds of hardware and adapters inevitably will have some problems. Maybe some tournament organisers can explain.
