What is a worse release travesty? Street Fighter V vs. The Master Chief Collection

I'm dying over here! There is going to be a patch? Free right? I'm going to have a stroke if someone doesn't fill me in.

Is Street Fighter V a broken, unplayable mess? No?

What is Street Fighter V? It's definitely not whole, oh I know what it is, it's....

• Divided
• Fractured
• Split
• In bits
• In pieces
• Fragmented

It's Broken.

All that stuff that comes out within the next 2 weeks, good lord this guy is a clown.

@naughtyottsel: They should have waited 2 weeks to release the full game then.

@mesome713: Yeah no shit! Whats really going on?

Wow, that's embarrassing. lol

They should have yes but how can a fully functional game be remotely compared to a broken travesty?

@naughtyottsel: I don't want to play online! I want to learn the game against the computer and then invite friends over to play. That's pretty fucking broken to me. Not to mention the other 90% of the time I don't have friends over.

@naughtyottsel: Im guessing cause both games have missing content. Although the remasters almost everyone owns, nobody owns SF5.

@mesome713: I regretted buying Splatoon. It was fun during the test but I saw that it would get old very fast for me and like a weak after buying the game I was already bored with it.

The single player campaign was also very lacking, easy to finish and lacked some kind of theme, it didn't felt like you progressed as everything looked the same and sadly only the last boss was interesting.

@Coco_pierrot: Im still loving it. The single player campaign has been praise as having one of the best boss fights of the year. It was awesome fun innovative platforming. My favorite is how you progress online and buy new stuff in the game, its amazing.

If it is true about SFV ... then it is the worst thing ever, worst than Halo

It sounds like Capcom doesn't have that much money to complet the game and so when people pay for it, it gave them enough to complet the rest of the crappy fighter.

I wonder what is on the disc ... if the whole game is already there and they will unlock the stuff ... then s*** Capcom will make the list of crappy developper/publisher

Take your pick. Would you rather have a lack of playable content or a wealth of unplayable content?

I was not expecting a Nyadc meltdown regarding SFV. I gave him too much credit.

And no matter how much you criticize this game's launch we are going to be enjoying ourselves playing it while you pour salt.

@mesome713: I clearly don't share your feelings toward this game

@Coco_pierrot: True, but dont feel bad being in the minority, its just how it is.

You've gotta be joking me. clearly capcom aren't taking things as seriously as they used to

Capcom is just pushing the envelope with what the consumer will buy. Last gen they'd release the basic SF game, then the SSF game, then the SSF Ultimate etc. and now they're releasing the barest of products and believe people will buy an unfinished product. The worst part is they're right. By next gen they'll just release fractured code in dlc segments.

StrongBlackVine, I respect you and enjoy your posts. But it's pretty hard to gloat at the moment. We should probably figure out what the hell is really going on with this game before we delve deep into the systems wars. I think that stuff is funny as the next guy and I enjoy making Xbots feel dumb on occasion but this game is looking screwed up at the moment! Rise above the Lem damage control type thing, you are better, no?

This isn't even damage control, I want people to understand their own hypocrisy, the way they create exemptions for the things they like, the way they downplay the severity of things taking place because it serves their interests yet violently attack things that serve the interests of others.

This is a big fucking deal, big enough to the point that people should be outright refusing to buy the game, instead they're irrationally defending it.

Or because Splatoon added that shit for free later while Capcom is obviously going to milk a few iterations for cash.

How is the game looking screwed up? I've been participating in the beta since the first one so unless they went backwards I don't see it. Yeah it's lacking content, but we knew that already and if that is problem for any just wait a few months and you will get the full package. I only care about online play so I'm fine with the current offerings to start.

Capcom is adding the additional modes as free updates. Basically the same thing Splatoon did.

No single player against cpu is pretty damn screwed up! It's really the FIRST thing that should have been added! A few months!

There is no way in Hell you would be calling for a boycott if this was not a PlayStation console exclusive. Did you call for boycotts on Splatoon or Evolve?

+Killer Instinct...

Don't buy it until the single player update is released then. Messed up implies that content that is currently in the game is not functioning properly.

I paid zero attention to Splatoon, it's actually the only Wii U exclusive I do not own because it interests me in zero capacity, and as far as Evolve is concerned, absolutely, just not here, I slanted that game into oblivion on the Steam forums.

P.S. Killer Instinct, free to play micro-transaction based expanding fighter =/= a $60 paid fighter that is incomplete no matter how you try to spin it.

P.P.S. This is all irrelevant to the discussion at hand, you're attempting to scapegoat what has taken place here.

I'm not at all a fan of this releasing a game totally unfinished for full price and hoping for the best down the line. I will definitely wait. This practice needs to stop! Why do we support it? I guess I'm just old fashioned?

@Bigboi500: you know they did exactly that with SFII back in the SNES days

They never released a Street Fighter on Snes without single player. I can assure you of that!

I'll say Street Fighter V. That game is clearly being released unfinished. They're trying to rush it out for Capcom Pro Tour and EVO.

It's sad, I think fighting games could be waaay bigger. Shit like this just turns off newcomers completely.

I'm buying it now because I don't play fighting games for the single player or story. I want to train and play against people online. Would it be ideal if they had waited for full package to be complete before releasing the game? Yes, but I'm getting what I want right now and all missing content will be updated for free. I also got the game for $37 and I doubt it will cost less than that in June.

I'm happy for you and hope you enjoy it. It's still a real boneheaded move and will turn people away. It just doesn't make any sense.

If only you people had this attitude in a mirrored reality with The Master Chief Collection for the people who were more in it for the single player, co-op &couch multiplayer...

NOPE, WHOLE GAME IS FUCKED!

#JokesTime

@nyadc: That whole game was fucked at the time, and so is this one. What you gonna do?

Halo MCC got really good reviews and sold a ton despite its problems. The same thing will likely happen for SFV. Why are you acting as if MCC flopped?

Neither one is/was fucked, that is the point, they're both just missing out on huge parts of their content for reasons that lead to the same end.

Partially broken? Partially missing content? It doesn't matter, they both fucked up big time.

So this is the paid exclusive Sony bought? LOL! At least MS gave Crystal Dynamics and Square Enix to perfect Rise of the Tomb Raider!

I'm not, I would just appreciate to see more out of this community, hold everything to the same standards objectively, and it just doesn't happen.

@nyadc "Neither one is/was fucked, that is the point, they're both just missing out on huge parts of their content for reasons"

If it's all the same to you I'm going to define that as "fucked".

nya tried to down SF because its on ps4 *omfg i know!!! teh ps4* but failed miserably. Better luck next time. Please try harder and improve your skills.

He's probably been sitting on this thread for a year to get "payback" for everyone making fun of the most broken release in gaming history the MCC.

Literally came to me today, and at its core it has nothing to do with the games themselves, it's the double standards and hypocrisy which has given this topic life.

Isn't a f2p game by definition an incomplete game until you pay to unlock it all? KI launched for free but with one scrub character. Each character was $5 per, which if you compare the SF, would have cost $80, since SF comes with 16 fighters already. So how are you mad at Capcom, when they've been upfront about content that would be added for free later when they are ready, and not mad at MS for breaking up a game and selling it piece by piece?

Nothing has "taken place" here. It's all in your head because you want to be mad at Sony and this is the only thing you can do. The only one spinning here is you. Take a seat before you get dizzy and hurt yourself.

What double standards? The content SFV does have is all perfectly playable. Can't say the same for MCC.

No, it's structured to bring in money, that's why it has no cost to bring in players, everything is there it's just behind a paywall, there's nothing incomplete. It was $5 for individual characters so people could just buy one or two that they would actually want to use, or you just spend $20 and get them all... You forgot about that didn't you. Also it's a game that was structured to be added to and developed over time, and like season one, for two and three you can pick and choose who you want or buy them all for a heavily discounted price.

I don't think you understand that business model, you spend more in bulk and you get more, you spend less on individual things and it will cost you more per item.

How do you not see the collapse and contradiction in logic here? One game is missing content because it's incomplete, one game has the content which is broken making that portion of the game unplayable thus making the game incomplete.

It's a means to literally the same end, content that cannot be played... Stop rationalizing illogicality and blatant idiocy.

I can't believe you defend that.....

They said they werent doing the extra iterations with 5 and that the dlc could be obtained by in-game currency

And what exactly is wrong with that aside from your implication that there is something wrong with absolutely no explanation attached to it?

I can't believe this thread is still running.

Anyway tried out my first cross play match and it worked amazingly, gonna be spending hours online tomorrow.

Hell I've gonna just confirm it, this will be one of my top 5 games of this year easily.
