my first match was against someone with mcdonalds wifi

I managed to get matched with various players, but only played against one (I guess the others alt f4), the match was horrible played, it ran like between 4-10fps so I quitted.

I hope the netplay works perfectly once the game gets fully released.

my experience so far is a pretty long chain of failures just to play one match which was meh, it ran in 14 fps all the time which makes it playable but it was pretty unconfortable.

[OxygenMolecule]

Yeah basically this lol

Yeah, it's pretty bad but I don't expect much right now. I'm sure it will be good once the game fully releases. ZUN has never disappointed.

I managed to play somehow decently (most) of the time but only against other players from my same country, Spain. it ran mostly between 45-60fps. Sometimes it dropped to 35 due to Nazrin crystals or Seiran bullet spamms.

I also putted the settings in "no latency", where you choose settings once you find a rival. (I'm not really sure what that means, specially when its in japanese rofl).

suck

Basically higher latency gives you higher fps but at the cost of higher latency (delayed inputs ). Of course there's more technical explanation but that's all you need to know for now. If you had around 45-60 fps with no latency then with "low latency" you should have consistent 60fps in my opinion.

It's a miracle just to get a match. Even if I could play against them, I have never been able to play comfortably at 60 FPS. I am indeed feeling the limitation of solving the network problem by ZUN alone.

That's not how it ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ works you dolt. Obviously ZUNs netcode is just a very naive implementation of lockstep. If there was an input delay in it, it would at least run at full 60 FPS but that's obvioulsy not the case. Clearly the game just keeps waiting for the other players input packets, and since there is no buffer thats why it slows down.

Just because there is a delay to inputs doesn't mean you are guaranteed to have 60fps instantly. I have played many games with delayed inputs and I still couldn't get pure 60fps (the netcode was bad). I do not have touhou 19's source code so I do not know what ZUN did here so I think you assuming it's a naive implementation of lockstep is bad. You might be correct but you have no proof to back it up, unless ZUN has said that himself.
