SFV Fans/Pros Reacts To Unofficial Fan-Made Patch

Yesterday, a Reddit post that featured what is to be a fan-made patch in the netcode for Street Fighter V spread across social media in a matter of minutes.

The post was shared by a fan, Zero-Kira, that featured a link and instructions for players to download for the PC version of the game. If downloaded correctly, players will notice the difference when playing online.

Ran a set with @Keoma89 before and after the netcode patch (he had his correctly installed from the beginning; mine was incorrectly installed at first, then patched correctly in the next clip)

It got a LOT more playable… for a 3-bar connection lol pic.twitter.com/KSSH6OHz4u

netcode patch closing thoughts:

– it fucking works*

– it's great for long distance up to at least 3K miles*

– we're finally free from the grid*

– if this was implemented fully then it'd be hard to say SFV isn't a total package

While some players are praising the patch, others are looking at Capcom as to why a fix that fans were requesting for years was fixed in a couple of days?

An issue that people have been complaining about for 4 years, and a casual fan was able to fix the net code in 2 days…. I know Capcom Japan calls the shots, but this is embarrassing.

Someone from @CapcomFighters should notify the dev team if they don’t already know about this https://t.co/PR4posT4vs

The netcode patch at the moment is only available for PC users meaning console players will have to stick to the 3-5 bar games when playing online. You can find the directions to install the patch below.

Here's a quick tutorial on how to apply the netcode patch for SFV PC if you don't know what you're doing. Please don't be that guy and use this while playing against PS4 users. RT for awarenesshttps://t.co/GeWs2ELarZ pic.twitter.com/XONUOCK9t7
