Street Fighter V (PS4/PC exclusive)

[eastyy]

Yeah i got my code yesterday i preloaded it but not been able to play it so far.

[endo]

I'm on and waiting for something to load... taking its time.

edit: on now, but waiting for some introductory screens to disappear. And just been kicked off the server. Getting closer though

[redstar_dan]

Sorry to sound naive, but how would i access the beta on ps4? when did beta go live and how long will it last for? Thanks

[redstar_dan]

Is it a steam thing?

[redstar_dan]

Nevermind, sign up is closed

[endo]

Can't connect at all now. Starts up, but then either get booted out of various servers or can't log in to begin with.

Lots of talk on various social media channels that they're having some real issues with this. Hopefully it'll be extended plenty enough for me to get my teeth sunk into it.

[eastyy]

Yeah i still have not been able to play....i know people are saying "it is only a beta" but was originally to test net code and matchmaking but not much point if you cannot even get to the game.

I think they should at least put a offline training mode

Beta's now officially down for an unspecified length of time while they sort it out:

As they say they'll keep us posted of the date it's going live again, I'm guessing it's not going to be today (or this weekend for that matter).

If the servers have melted during the beta, that means the beta has been 100% successful - i.e. they've found a crippling problem they need to fix before launch.

[wargame]

Absolutely, it is a beta after all things like this will happen. It would be a different matter if this happened on launch day.

[eastyy]

Yeah i guess so just i wonder did many other fighting games that did not have this sort of beta have any launch online problems ?

I just do wonder why it happens i am sure they have a record of how many keys have been sent out and where

It's a real shame this game isn't running on a more reliable network.
