How is the lag in SF3:TS?

[Projectjustice]

Im planning to import this game very soon. I was just wondering how the lag is on SF3:TS? Lag could very well ruin any match with the 3s engine. :sad:

[AlkalineX]

if you import the game then your dumb because no matter how good the netcode is your going to lagg your ass off if you have to travel accross contents to play people :rolleyes:

[CrotchMonkey]

uhh how can the cd determine your geographical location?

[SNAAAAKE]

if you import the game then your dumb because no matter how good the netcode is your going to lagg your ass off if you have to travel accross contents to play people :rolleyes:

Its a multi region game you fuckin dumbtruck :rofl:
(could you BE any dumber)

[AlkalineX]

Its a multi region game you fuckin dumbtruck :rofl:
(could you BE any dumber)


He's importing into the USA you stupid shit sniffing bastard?
Who the fuck is he gonna play against? OHH probably europeans or Japanese. :rolleyes:

Gee fuckhead ever stop to think what kinda of lag he will getting if he is playing people over seas?


Fucking dipshit... :lame:

[SNAAAAKE]

Ohhh..old fart gone wild..so gangsta :clap:
Of course it will be laggy if you are playing overseas people but YOU DONT HAVE TO PLAY overseas people you fuckin moron.Its a multi region games so people in the US will be able to play just like any other xbox live games and lag will be JUST like any other normal xbox live games.Next time dont try to be "cool" by calling people names without knowing the facts you fat piece of shit :tup:

[SodomSFA3]

Excatly how is there going to be lag if he is playing all the people in the US that are importing the game???

[doujinshi_2001]

Exactly. I don't think AlkalineX knows wtf he's talking about by posting bullshit like that

[Nash421]

It hasn't been very stable but I've only played like 10 matches. 1 problem I think is people from the UK count as domestic to people in the US. They go by languaged I guess. I've played some people from UK and France. Not sure if I played any US people. I can't even parry a full screen fireball....

It's not as bad as guilty gear but its not been the best for me thus far(again only 10 games of which most were overseas). WIll just have to wait till more US people import it.

[Projectjustice]

Guys no need to get all nasty with each other, I was more concern with the network codes then anything else. Is it better then CvS2? Im still undecided whether I should import or just wait for the domestic version.

[Singho]

Hi

Well i was playing loads of UK players today...the game for 90% of my matches were flawless! :encore:

Played some Sweedish dude, and lag appeared just at the wrong times...like during Yuns SA3, and the timing would get messed.

But, if you are playin people in the same country or whatever, it should be fine! \o/

Its got this wierd thing where the screen goes black and forces you to disconnect though :( This is right after you select "rematch" btw.

[The Mullah]

live has been kicking me off all day tofay.

alkaline made a fair point, he's talking about US players. He's assuming that only a handful of poeple will import it so most of your matches will be against europian and japanese players. therefore no matter if the net code is good, the distance between you and most of thep layers is so great lag will be very much present.

come on guys, try to understand the mans point before turning up the heat

[AlkalineX]

Ohhh..old fart gone wild..so gangsta :clap:
Of course it will be laggy if you are playing overseas people but YOU DONT HAVE TO PLAY overseas people you fuckin moron.Its a multi region games so people in the US will be able to play just like any other xbox live games and lag will be JUST like any other normal xbox live games.Next time dont try to be "cool" by calling people names without knowing the facts you fat piece of shit :tup:


Just who in the Hell has this game in US? Certainly not your broke punk food stamp leeching ass. Thier might a total of 10 people in ALL of the US that have it dumb-bum ignorant fuck. 99% of the time the people you'll be forced to play against are living aboard. SO YA, youR GONNA GET A HELLA OF ALOTTA LAG :rolleyes:

Best is just to chill out and wait for the Feb Release, rather than paying 2x and even having the possibility of having your xbox banned from xbl for connecting to xbl with an invalid region (And XBL knows your not supposed to have that game in the USA, and according to thier TOS you are violation and could have your xbox banned)


Certainly if you are fucking dumb imbreed mother fucker, go an and import it :rolleyes: pay 2x as much and play with no one or with huge ass lag. your choice. :razz:

[vpt_whatup]

so is it worth importing or just waiting for the US version? and what is this net code stuff about? i thought xbox live 3.0 was just clan and buddy features.

[SNAAAAKE]

therefore no matter if the net code is good, the distance between you and most of thep layers is so great lag will be very much present.
Yes that is comon sense..no need to rub it in anybody's face.The thread maker wanted to know if the netcode was ANY better then how it is for cvs2,ggx,etc and from what I have been hearing..its imporved :karate:
But here we have alkalineX who is clearly a fucking moron and always talks shit and trys to start something with pretty much everyone :lame:

(online gangter at its best:rofl:)

[AlkalineX]

(online gangter at its best:rofl:)

Rather be a gangster then an ass crack licking bitch like yourself. :clap:

[Captain Ryu]

I dont know about being a dumb inbreed fuck for importing it... A lot of my friends from live imported it at the same time as me, so I basically plan on playing all of them.

:rofl: You wont get banned for playing a "w-code" import game on your xbox (or online).....I already asked customer service.

This thread is fucking funny! :rofl:

[SodomSFA3]

Holy crap the hate comming from AlkalineX is amazing dammmmmn...

[Captain Ryu]

That shit isnt hate... It's trying to prove he knows what he is talking about when he doesnt. You are no better then the corn in my shit.

shut up bitch :karate:
Customer service is smoking german sheapered dogshit.
YOu call those fools up and they'll tell you can ps2 games on your xbox :rolleyes:

Fact is, this is the first I've heard of this W-Code shit, and I highly doubt that its legit, its like the the first couple of weeks when xbl came out and people played with modded xboxes. But after a weeks those bitches got banned fosho. :razzy:

[AlkalineX]

I dont know about being a dumb inbreed fuck for importing it... A lot of my friends from live imported it at the same time as me, so I basically plan on playing all of them.


Ohh yah, that makes a lot of fucking sense.
You mean to tell me that you rather have your friends (from where u live) Get on xbox live on a damn import, and play with lag, while the whole time earlier you're dumbass friends (which includes u) could just have a get together and play on ps2/dc for a fraction of the cost?

really fucking smart man, whats next your formula for cold fusion?


bitch ass... :lame:

[doujinshi_2001]

How could u get real bad lag playing people in the same state or country as you... :confused:

I don't get it

[EffOff]

Fact is, this is the first I've heard of this W-Code shit, and I highly doubt that its legit, ....... :razzy:

Scoot was right, you are a DUMB MOTHER FUCKER! :razzy:

Where's DreamTR, he'll set this nigga right. :rolleyes:

[sifu98]

you don't because its peer2peer.
I imported Steel battalion: Line of Contact from US to europe.
that game is also region free and ive never gotten any problem playing that online.( note SB:LOC is a lag sensetive game )
And if i got banned it should have been 3 months ago but still here i am playing LIVE.

[EffOff]

Holy crap the hate comming from AlkalineX is amazing dammmmmn...

LOL! LkalineX is just throwing random shit out. He prolly too broke to import anyway and is just sore.

Hey alkalinex, tell you what. I'll anally violate your Mom and I'll send you a copy of the game after I wipe my dick off on it first (your mom's a bleeder :rofl:). mkay? :smile:

[SNAAAAKE]

Scoot was right, you are a DUMB MOTHER FUCKER! :razzy:

Where's DreamTR, he'll set this nigga right. :rolleyes:

SEE EVERYONE ! alkalineX really is "THAT" dumb with nonsense bullshit that dont make any sense at all.Fucking moron gets owned by EVERYONE left and right all the time and still cant keep his shit filled mouth shut :lame:
(can you guys belive X is fucking 34 year old..I mean geez talk about being THAT dumb at 34)

[Thongboy Bebop]

Personally, I would wait until the US version comes out. I'm hoping that they're delaying the release to optimize the netcode (or hell, fix Twelve. Whatever). But of course if you can afford to get both, rock that shit like it's going out of style. IT'S ONLINE 3S, FOR FUCK'S SAKE!

[MrFujisawa]

I played about 60 matches last night, most quite good, very playable. Not perfect though

Ive maanged to parry a shinku hadoken, but my attempts to parry just the last hit of chun li's sa2 are 50/50 (but i had been drinking by that time)

overall, real good, the more i played the more i got used to the tiny lag.

But still YOUR NOT GOING TO HAVE ANYONE TO PLAy.. soo LOL FUcking LOL :P

It is only for new copies.

Why are you so crazy man?

[doujinshi_2001]

Actually, he may have a point, when exactly is the game getting recalled

[AlkalineX]

Man,
how fucking stupid are you guys?
Do you know what a RECALL is? ITs when something is defective and needs to be repalced!

Capcom is placing a recall to give people the right version of the game, and most probably those that have the fucked up will get an ONLINE UPDATE PATCH that will stop this multi-country shit. Obvioulsy if you are in THE USA, your ass is fucking screwed.

JPN games only pay M$ 2.5 dollars (because sales of xbox in jpn suck), where as USA games pay 8.00. So thats why M$ forces you to put an import restriction because they get less money from you.

Man what a bunch of dumbasses you all are! The coppies you have WILL NOT be able to connect to people using the newer version of the game with the lockout. SO know HOW the hell are you planning to play anyone?
You probably won't even be able to get on xbox live in the USA with the copy you have now.

Fucking dumbass clowns. Go ahdead and spend 60 bucks for somethig you wont' be able to do shit with :rolleyes:

[CrotchMonkey]

wait you mean after the recall is over worldwide games will be gone? huh?

[SodomSFA3]

AlkalineX the new versions just will not allow you to play on a US xbox it has nothing to do with the copys that are already out. There are already a huge amount of people who bought this in the USA for the reason of playing online with each other.

[Super Scrub X]

He's importing into the USA you stupid shit sniffing bastard?
Who the fuck is he gonna play against? OHH probably europeans or Japanese. :rolleyes:

Gee fuckhead ever stop to think what kinda of lag he will getting if he is playing people over seas?


Fucking dipshit... :lame:

I can play many of the USA players right here from Engalnd (I have already played many of the USA/Canada people from the SRK CvsSNK2 board) with little to no lag. You just have to have a fast broadband connection, and they have to have a reasonably fast broadband connection. Obvious but true.

[AlkalineX]

you can have as fast as a connection as you want, it won't change ping times becasue regardless of your isp your still going thorugh UUNET or sprints backbone.

SO no, havinga cable or T3 will still get you the same pings, its just that simple if you knew anything about networks.


Quite making bs assumptions on how only new versions will do blah.
The fact of the matter is as soon as capcom released an online update people using even the old one won't be able to play.

How many people have you played in Third Strike form USA? Its only a matter of time before they get kicked off xbl.

Not only is it very unlikely that Microsoft will kick off US people for playing SFAC (remember--it needs to allow US SFAC players so that reviewers and beta testers can try it out, and it would be nearly impossible for them to figure out who is who), but even if they do ban US X-Box's from accessing the game, people who imported the W-Code version can still play it online with a modded X-Box using the tutorial I posted here:

http://www.shoryuken.com/forums/showthread.php?t=73830

So, I don't see why you are hating on the people who imported the game. It was either pay $20 or $30 extra and get the game now, or pay a little less but wait four months. The choice was obvious for all of us who chose to import it. Even if they ban US X-Box's, we can still get online with it and play other US people. You should do your homework before you make such shortsighted assumptions, especially since it's obvious you're just jealous of people who are going to get to play the game four months before you will be able to.

YOU CAN NEVER NEVER get online with a modded xbox because the bios is not a valid MS bios. XBL will detect your modified bios and will ban you're xbox ONSIGHT.

The fact of the matter is Capcom already pulled the game offshelves, to stop the region-lock (or better yet lackoff)

The fact that capcom pulled the games from Japanese Shelves should be proof enough.

Ohh if you think that is the rejoin glitch, then your wrong, capcom could have fixed that with an online update. THe region-code ont he disc can not be fixed so that's why capcom is re-calling the game.

[Projectjustice]

AlkalineX,

MS is not going to ban the use of the JP version of SF3:TS on Xbox. All they can do is recall the ones that were sold to shop and stop the print of W-Coded Disc. Why is MS or Capcom going to create a patch for the 200 people that did import the game when in 4 months its going to be released here anyways for online play? That just doesnt make much sense. Since the BSOD has been a huge problems, Im just going to wait for the domestic version. Im also hoping the US version get added features such as the Virutal Arcade Cabinet that DOA:U current has.

[fubarduck]

YOU CAN NEVER NEVER get online with a modded xbox because the bios is not a valid MS bios. XBL will detect your modified bios and will ban you're xbox ONSIGHT.

See this link: http://www.xbox-scene.com/articles/xlive.php

You're right that you can't get online with a non-valid MS Bios, but you CAN get online with a modded X-Box provided that the mod is "turned off" like I specified in my tutorial (which means you are loading a valid MS Bios). I have played on X-Box Live with a modded X-Box for about 2 years now.

Hundreds of people have already used the tutorial I posted to play the Japanese X-Box game "Phantom Dust" on modded, US version X-Box's with US X-Box Live.

Please do your homework so that you don't accidentally misinform the public in the future. Your rants are getting old. It's amusing that you even tried to doubt my technical knowledge :P

Yeah I mean why would Capcom release patch to make people stop playing when the US version is like 3 months away. I can see if it was like a year away but its 3 fucking months, plus u can't forget that Capcom are lazy mofos

The vitual arcade cab idea would be a really bad idea for this IMO because more players = more lag. What they can do that would be kinda neat is the lobby thing in SvC where its basically a chatroom players go in and challenge other people. U can also talk with mic

Well my desire for the Virual arcade cabinet to be applied to SFAC is under the assumption that it wouldnt affect connections with higher pin rates. Lag free is always a given.

[SodomSFA3]

AlkalineX is just a jealous little bitch. Whatever age he is its obvious he doesnt have the money to buy the game or he doesnt even have an xbox. There are a TON of people on this thread that are in the US who are playing the game http://www.shoryuken.com/forums/showthread.php?t=75357 .

If I ever saw you in real life and you said any of the bs you have been throwing around here I would smack the snot outta you and post a pic of you running back to your cardboard box. You dirty little homeless freak.

[[vince-uk]]

To the peeps who originally played 3s on DC, how does the lag timing compare with say with a 'lag-free' game? There's some significant input lag on the DC version, and I'm wondering if it's similar. Also, are you using ps2->xbox converters?

[bigbadcod]

This Version blows the DC version out of the water connection is nice links and combos come out much smoother the whole game just feels so much better to play

[Ssongro]

[vince-uk] is asking whether the lag on-line is equivalent to the input lag you get on the DC. Better, worse or the same? He's used to the PS lag-free play he wants to know whether on-line play has the equivalent lag as the DC before folking out for an x-box especially for this game.

[The Mullah]

just get it, its good enough to play relatively competitively with people in the uk.

[mthegreatone]

heh mullah, nice avatar :)

i'd also imagine that to answer that question "how is the lag in sf3:ts?", one would have to factor in the type of connection you have from the get-go...chances are pretty high that you'll get a sh*tload of lag if u play on a 56k connection or lower for obvious reasons

[Ssongro]

Thing is though, if everyone is saying how playable this game is on-line, how come we don't see many "good" players here? I only seem to notice loads of newbies posting - and i don't mean to put them down or anything. I suppose this is a question to the peeps from London, how many troc' regulars have you played? The main reason [vince-uk] wants this game is so that he can play the regular Londoners he plays when he goes down, playing on-line would be so much more convenient, but if the lag is crap then the play won't be good. I think he's got 700k connection but i'm not sure what ntl do.

[BillyKane]

Hey Ssongro, Vince sup? I'm wondering the same thing about the lag actually, still undecided about getting a X-Box for this or not. It's a lot of money and with all this talk about droppers and BSODS...

[Ssongro]

Hey BK, it's been a long time, how've you been? Yeah, if the lag aint too bad then Vince will be getting an x-box too :) I hope so, then we could have some cool matches since I haven't played you in a few yrs now. TBH, we're only gonna get droppers if we're against newbies, I can't see any of the more expeienced players doing that :/ Heh, we could even set up a CT community on live :) Hopefully the BSOD will be sorted out.

Im far from a newbie, Ive been playing SF3:TS since it was released in 99. I joined this forum a year ago, Ive just been pretty busy with life to be as active as I am now. Ive always lurked these forums and read what other posters had to say. Since TS is online and it happens to be my favorite fighter of all time Ive decided to take a more active role around here.

...chances are pretty high that you'll get a sh*tload of lag if u play on a 56k connection or lower for obvious reasons.

How is this possible when Xbox live is a Broadband only service. No one with a 56k or lower can get on XBL. :xeye:

Dude, you don't need to defend yourself, I wasn't making an attack on anyone, I was just saying that I only seem to notice the newbies posting about their experiences of 3S on-line.

I was gonna say something about the xbox being broadband only too, but since I don't own an xbox I kept my mouth shut :/

You're right that you can't get online with a non-valid MS Bios, but you CAN get online with a modded X-Box provided that the mod is "turned off" like I specified in my tutorial (which means you are loading a valid MS Bios). I have played on X-Box Live with a modded X-Box for about 2 years now.

Hundreds of people have already used the tutorial I posted to play the Japanese X-Box game "Phantom Dust" on modded, US version X-Box's with US X-Box Live.

Please do your homework so that you don't accidentally misinform the public in the future. Your rants are getting old. It's amusing that you even tried to doubt my technical knowledge :P

stop quoting my out of context and read my whole post
I'm well aware of the on/off modchip bios. I clearly said a modified bios, no where does it contest whether the xbox is on or off you on the other hand said Modded xbox, without any mention of the chip being on or off.

ohh please, don't throw xbox-scene links at me, look at the forums, I'm member no.62 out of the 185,000 + members they have. I have modded 114 xboxs to date, I know all about xbox and xbox live. :rolleyes:

OHHH, so THATs how you pay for rent living in your MOM's basement...by modding XBOXes. I always thought you made cash by sucking old guy's cocks....silly me. :rolleyes:

I read through this thread only to find minimal info about the lag.

Is it like CvS2?
Or is it smooth like MK and DOA?

I am asking from a US player vs US player stand point.

[Captain Ryu]

The game runs better then cvs as long as the connection is good in 3S. Same goes for AE Shit almost feels like offline when the connection is good. thought the slightest delay can fuck you up. Other then that it's really good shit.

[Hol Horse]

Is hit confirming in 3s doable with good connections (and not too far geographical distance)?
Like, confirming consistently Chun's low MK?
Elena's low MP?

thanks

[Honky Tonk]

Yep, it's possible - though obviously you could do with a good connection. In domestic matches, with a good connection, you're right there, right on the moment.

The thing with input is that it happens your side - the problem is not in detecting exactly when you press the button, but making sure the other side knows this and reacts properly. If you see the first hit connect, and you press for the super, it's registered - if your connection is lagging, this impacts mainly on the person on the other side of it. But, mostly, the bad connection you'll experience is not consistent lag, but infrequent choppiness, which of course will screw up whatever it is you're trying for :)

I have to say that it's actually really very very impressive, altogether. I had thought that you could never really get 3rd strike going online properly - even without all the high-end stuff, I thought that just getting parrying working properly would be too much. I mean, it runs at 60fps, which is one frame every 16 milliseconds.

Main thing for me right now is finding matches!!! I think this may more recently be blamed on Halo2, but it seems that there are less and less people playing atm :(

just in case - I'm 'o0 MoonCat 0o' and I like Makoto.

I'm looking into improving my internet connection for online play and I'd like some advice -I'm pretty new to online play. Right now my upload is only around 14Kb/s -would upgrading it to 25Kb/s have an influence on the lag and freezes I get with my current connection? What exactly should I be trying to upgrade for peer to peer play; download, upload or ping rates? Thanks in advance.

[MaybeMemories]

not liking this "lag" scenario, im on a 2mbit downstream and i think either 128 or 256 upstream, lag on a 2d game is ridiculous really [unless its over continents] , im about to buy an xbox just for annivarsary edition, i hope there no local lag.

[KrsJin]

Local lag shouldn't be an issue. Even playing within the UK region. Jumpting the 'lantic may cause some slowdown for 3S with the states though. I've played matches with a few in the UK where it felt sluggish but very playable. Funny thing though is in other games, like Halo and Splintercell I didn't notice international lag like I do 3S :/

But yeah you should be ok if you stick to Ireland and the UK.
