A bit late getting this posted, but glad I got to it! It was a good night on the last night of the Street Fighter V Open Beta. Even though I didn’t get to stream it live on Twitch like last time, it was still a great time with pretty good connections for the most part! I’m really beginning to question Capcom’s decision to go with the “rollback” method for netcoding because the characters literally begin teleporting all over the screen when there is a poor connection. I definitely prefer input delay to this.
Definitely looking forward to the next open Beta and hoping that it has a more up-to-date roster (considering that as-of-today we’re at 11 of the 16 launch characters revealed with one more reveal coming later this month.) It’ll be nice to have a bigger roster available to get a better idea of where the balancing is at between characters and even just getting a general “feel” for how the characters play.
