Launch Day Review

:Pros:
Online Matches are Great and Smooth, just like they were in past betas.
There's lot of Offline Options to help you get started if Online is "too much" for you.

:Cons:
All the features aren't up.
Lots of Disconnects from server.
No Arcade Mode.

From what I can also tell people who bought PS4 gear for this game are in for a rude awakening to find out they needed to buy Xbox 360 Controllers instead because the PC version of this game does not read those controllers naitively so you'll need a third party app like Joy2Key to get them to run and for those that want to be Keyboard Warriors will learn you can't really change your keys.

So it's recommended you get a Xbox controller for this one.

So yeah this is pretty much Beta 5. Except now we don't have to wait around for a new Beta and We are guarenteed updates. Remember Street Fighter IV wasn't ULTRA Street Fighter IV when it first launched. This is one of those titles where you really do have to just wait it out.

Also The problems found on this version of the game are also present in the PS4 version so it doesn't look like PC got shafted this time around.

Overall I recommend it to the competitive Street Fighter player. If you're not up for that, I suggest going back to Ultra till more Updates happen.

Yeah No Arcade mode. The Recommendation is for the Competitive Street Fighter, not the Casual "I play Street Fighter every once in awhile."

Also There are Arcade Sticks that are Xbox Controllers so using one myself that's what I'm talking about.

Also, XBOX controller has a shitty d-pad to play fighting games, no?
