    I bought it on steam being super excited but... its an alpha, nothing seems to work, even the DS4 doesn't work... theres glitches, almost no content, its not just an alpha... its one with not much content and the online that is there, isn't great because of the horrible support for it @ launch day. great... not

    Yes, the fighing is good but you never actually get into it. And it looks pretty. And that's all for this game.

    There's no Arcade mode, and story mode have only 1 round, for a total of 4 fights. I don't get this game, seriously. I think it is meant to be released little by little throught patches, but this doesn't worth $ 60 USD. Not even close. The only reason to buy this is if you

Even so, there's massive problems with frame rate as of today. Capcom sunk the market to the lowest standard yet. It's worse then that Assasins Creed Unity. Or Watchdogs. Or Battlefront. God.

    Another half baked POS as most games of the last 5 years.... Please, sabotage the industries and download a torrent before you spent money on this **** or **** like this. Try before you buy... And stop the developers from creating beta games and selling them as completed..

    Contenido muy POBRE, es un juego que no podría costar ni 20 dolares. Se supone que tendrá mucho contenido después (el cual te van a cobrar) con mas razón no podrían ser ese el precio. Un modo historia pobre (3,4 peleas por Historia?! WTF!) 12 personajes?. El ONLINE da LASTIMA. Y hay gente que defiende esta bazofia, con seguir asi van a seguir saliendo juegos asi #VAMOSMAL

    This game has stripped all of the modes excepting online mode ... and the online servers don't work. Feel free to pay 60 dollars for a game you can't play at all.

    The game was completely broken in the ps4, but in PC is unplayable . Ridiculous port. Lousy single player and terrible online. Unsupported joysticks and keybord. Terrible. I requested refund in STEAM. Capcom does not respect consumers.

    Not much to say that hasn't already been said.
    Full Price game, demo tier features and broken servers. To think it even launched without player lobbies and spectator mode as an online focused game is baffling.
    Their main focus was apparently taking a page out of the DOA book and making really slutty costumes to distract players from the fact their game isn't good. I can't support any

    I can't support any obvious example of the industry sticking it to the consumer, even if the name slapped on the front is Street Fighter. Sorry fanboys, you got played again. This product is far below par.

    Five reasons for street fighters 5 bad review.
    1.Censored the game.
    2.The game is now meant for casual players.
    3.Lack of characters and levels.
    4.Error codes up the wazoo playing online.
    5.Theirs something extremely unpolished about it, like it wasn't finished.

    This is the worst pc port i ever saw in my life. It HAS to run at 60 fps. Otherwise its broken. If you dont, it either runs crazy fast or in slow motion. I have not seen this since the 486 era, 20 years ago. You can forget playing it on your 4k tv since it most probably only supports 24hz at 4k.

    This trash belongs in early access - not marketed on the front page as a finished game sold at full price.

    1: Basic keyboard remap, you can't remap your desired keyboard controls. if you play with a keyboard, just don't bother 2: No arcade mode. some people don't care about an arcade mode, but alot people do, it's a great mode to play casually and testing out ur combos in semi real combat

    3: No trial mode. The game lacks a trial mode that exsited in almost every fighting game that has been released after 2003, and it's a great mode to learn characters and basic combos, yet the game don't have it.

    4: You cant really invite your friend to play with you at the moment, it asks for a fighter ID where requires you to login into the CFN(capcom fighter network), and the function is not avaliable yet, so playing with your friend is not possible.

    5: varies missing features such as the store is not even implemented yet.

    6: lots of fight sticks are not supported yet like the old games did, so if u have a fight stick and wanting to play this game, better check with the forum and see if ur stick is supported.

    this is what I found so far, will be updating this review if I find more issues or if capcom fixes these issues.

    This is honestly what we get for accepting this kind of trash over the years. All the games that come out, broken or are just incomplete, all add up to situations like this.

    Capcom has slipped SO far from grace at this point.

    The game turns on and you can play some single player stuff. However, it's severely lacking! Online play? Aw, hell no!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Le jeu fini sera probablement très fun, mais le brouillon auquel nous avons eu droit lors de la sortie internationale d'hier est tout simplement honteux.
    *** Un mode histoire ne possédant aucune cinématique, juste des dessins qu'un enfant de CP aurait pu faire pour illustrer de pauvres scénaris bâclés. Vous le terminerez aisément en 1h pour TOUS les persos étant donné qu'une histoire c'est maximum 4 combats très faciles d'un round chacun!
    *** Dans ce mode histoire vous gagnerez de l'argent...Oui mais la boutique pour le dépenser est hors-service pour le moment lol
    *** Un mode survie très facile jusqu'au 29 ou 30ème match où la difficulté augmentera subitement, illogiquement dirais-je même...Si vous l'atteignez, car les déconnexions intempestives du serveur de jeu vous en empêcheront bien souvent!
    Vous devrez donc soit tout recommencer depuis le début, soit jouer en mode hors-ligne mais vous ne gagnerez dans ce cas même pas les pauvres couleurs débloquables!
    *** Pas de mode défi (pour le moment) pour s'entrainer aux combos. Comme ça, c'est réglé!
    *** Des difficultés énormes à créer un salon de combat, encore plus pour trouver un adversaire, et encore plus pour faire un match contre un ami
    Bon allez, j'arrête là la liste est encore longue et ma tension monte! Achetez-le en promo dans un an ou deux, il sera peut-être fini

    Sets the bar lower for all future fighting games. This shipped as a jumbled mess and Capcom/Sony should be ashamed. People should protest all of the SFV tournaments until the game is fixed.

    Premessa:
    Ho un pc che non rientra nei requisiti, tuttavia ho giocato la Beta per 3 mesi ed è sempre andato tutto liscio. Gioco a quasi 60 FPS, non sempre e comunque stabilissimi al 100%, ma si riesce a giocare comunque perfettamente troppi senza problemi.

    Quindi penso che, nonostante tutto, SFV mi girerà senza problemi (se gira una Beta dopotutto che, teoricamente, è peggio ottimizzata di un gioco completo, giusto?)

    Ebbene acquisto il gioco e..... BAM! La Moviola di Biscardi!
    Tutto questo con gli stessi settaggi che ho sempre usato con la Beta! (dettagli tutto su Alto, Ombre a Medio, e mi HA SEMPRE funzionato per 3 mesi di gioco)

    La Beta su PC mi và da dio, tutto contento acquisto il gioco su PC e...... una moviola!?!?! WTF?

    Provo a ribassare qualche dettaglio....NADA, taglio la testa al toro e imposto tutto al minimo...ARINADA!!

    Cioè ma stiamo Scherzando?

    Avvio la Beta ed è tutto un altro SFV!!! Gioco fluidissimo a 60FPS o quasi, rimetto il gioco acquistato e ricomincia la Moviola di Biscardi!

    Cioè dai, comè possibile che nella Beta ci gioco benissimo, e mentre nella versione finale manco con i dettagli al minimo riesco a giocarci a 60 fps?
    Per cosa? per aver aggiunto un omino e 4 stage in piu? :|:
    Poi oltretutto le opzioni grafiche selezionabili e settate, sono le stesse identiche per entrambe le versioni (sia Beta che Finale).

    Io penso che in parte è """colpa""" (piu mia ovviamente eh) della Capcom che mi ha fatto buttare via soldi.

    Si è vero, i requisiti li aveva dati e sapevo di non rientrarci, ma porca puzzola, se uno vede che la Beta gli gira ottimamente uno cosa dovrebbe fare? cambiare ugualmente i pezzi del PC perchè cè scritto nella confezione, ma a conti fatti li' per li' riesci a giocarci da Dio lo stesso?

    Cosi invece a causa della Beta mi ha indotto all'acquisto quando effettivamente non gira, beh vergogna Capcom grazie della grande ottimizzazione che hai riservato a noi poveri pc-users-peasants-version, prima mi inganni con la Beta che tutto fila liscio e gira perfettamente sul mio tipo di pc (ha 4 gb di Ram) e poi mi rilasci il gioco completo che non è piu ottimizzato per girare sul mio pc.

    Poi oh, Phantom Pain ha requisiti con cui non ci rientro grossomodo peggio di quelli di SFV, eppure ci gioco tutto a dettagli Alti (le solite ombre a Medio), che devo fare ringraziare Konami a questo per aver trattato i pcgamer in maniera equa (aka aver ottimizzato il gioco)?

    direi di si mi sà

    In a more recent, better past, since the online mode in video consoles was implemented, we have encountered with games that go on incomplete sale and you have to pay either for new maps, characters, items, dlc, pass seasonal, etc ...

    In the end no longer pay 60 ~ 70 €, but you pay double or triple for the same game if you want it all unlocked.

    It is a shame to see in which direction moves lately AAA game developers.

    Why an arcade game, not including arcade mode?
    Players like me who hate online, do we? Enter and play in practice mode?
    But wait, for those who do enjoy online, this is unplayable.

    So we paid for a game where the online fails
    and single player mode does not exist.

    And, on the technical side, I find:

    - Missing several super attacks of the characters.
    - A list of 16 players where I miss mythical characters of the saga.
    - Graphically it is on par SFIV. I was surprised too little.

    My rating: 1.

    PS: I have disappointed a lot, Capcom.

    While I could not have recommended it to any but the hardcore fighting game community when it released, it’s now complete enough that I don’t have qualms about getting into it now. I’m still having fun with the game, even though most of my time is spent trying to complete survival runs and challenges rather then feed people rating boots online.

    There's a lot to love in Street Fighter V, especially Rainbow Mika, but the fact is that the game still isn't where it needs to be yet. The March update helped, but it was just a band aid on some pretty deep lacerations. Serious fighting game fans can hop in now without too many problems, but more casual players might want to wait—more fixes and a real story mode are still coming.

    At the moment, with its fantastic gameplay but a serious lack of content, Street Fighter 5 is a solid 7/10; a good game that is a great for fans of the genre but can’t be recommended to all. Hopefully though, in a year’s time when the promised features have been added and the roster of fighters has been increased in number, it’ll be worthy of a 9/10. Until then however, those looking for single player fighting thrills should look elsewhere to get their kicks, whilst those wanting to just play online will definitely enjoy Street Fighter 5, but may find its repetition of stages and fighters slightly irksome.
