Online is lackluster
-15+ min waits for casual matches so forced to play ranked unless you have all day to wait
-Can't leave ranked matches once qued so forced to play terribly laggy people on wifi
-Can't go to training mode while waiting for matches to make the wait times bearable (seriously NRS literally every other fighting game at least has this basic option)

All of this on top of no cross play not to mention the constant stuttering in-between cut scenes during a match... yet this game is more expensive than SF6? Make it make sense NRS...

There are 20K people playing right now and the game isn’t even out yet, why does crossplay matter?

Who cares if it is a ranked match anyways? You can treat it like a kasual as the kasual player is going to play just as seriously and try to win as the ranked player.

I found that you can find a lot of Kasual players on king of the hill.

That being said, I do side with you on not having a training mode while waiting to optimize combos or warm up.

Crossplay should be added later once optimized for sure.

EDIT: Connectivity is an issue in all of the online modes. So thats an invalid argument.

My point is since they didn't have to focus on making cross play available so they had more than enough time to give us a basic functioning online/game in general which it is not. Seriously if all these other fighting games can give is way more options on top of cross play what is NRS excuse? How is it that the game has 2x more people then SF6 yet it takes 10x longer to get a match and 5x longer to load into the match with stuttering? None of this is excusable for a $70 price tag
SF6 raised the bar for online so if it's not on par with that I'm not interested

Okay?? Why are you saying this like its excusable? NRS shouldn't have released a broken PC port in the first place lol.

NRS focus on console they then give the code to a diffrent company who makes it for pc thats why it sucks on pc for launch cuz the game was optimized for ps5 not for pc knowing NRS they will fix the pc version in a month or so from now maybe a few weeks

Since you're blind let me explain, there is no mouse icon next to my name which tells you I was smart enough to not get it on PC.

That still doesn't excuse them to release a garbage game and a garbage PC port.

Netplay in this game as far as PC is concerned is going to be subpar until "Krossplay" is enabled between all platforms. All the quality player base is on PS5.

Ranked specifically in this game, just like MK11, is abysmal. Being forced to play against subhumans on wireless with no option to back out lest you get penalized with a loss is backwards game design. So just understand thats the experience you're going to be getting more often then not in any form of netplay in this game. It's just worse in ranked.

And to echo what multiple are saying; no training mode while waiting in the queue is a huge miss. This is a common QOL implementation in fighting games at this point with the last several major triple A releases, SF6 being the most recent.

Not good news... I've been watching this guy's live streams, and although he gets games relatively quickly (1~2 minutes wait; mostly <1 minute), he is getting many lag spikes, and even <50ms latency (I don't believe those numbers, BTW) can be noticeably laggy.

My concern is that, the above example is playing in Los Angeles (U. S.), which means that it should be almost lag-free (unless matched with people overseas); and if the game is only "playable" under such conditions, it will certainly be near-unplayable in most other regions... If the game's PvP is balls, there is no reason to get it until it's "Komplete" or there-abouts -- if it turns out to be a predominantly offline game (as most of NRS games have been).

How so?... They simply add an option to filter for "ping" -- just as SF6 does -- and people can then choose who they play against. Irrespective, people "hating" the game is a prerogative that is far more preferable than them not playing it at all. Hate = still caring; indifference is what kills a game. Most non-casual hate SF6; yet, its online works and is active as heck...

takes me like 10 sec to find someone to fight ranked or casual no idea maybe something on your side
Can...you...help Sep 16, 2023 @ 4:37pm 
the online is really bad indeed, those who say treat rank match as casual are wrong. It's not really like casual when you forced to play agaisn't a laggy teleporting player or tryhard who only care about winning, rank might be better down a few week after launch for the last point.

But let's be real as long as you are forced to play wifi or bad connection ranked will just be annoying to play in
