[quote name='AksysGames']so far as it stands, the only true comparison BB actual netcode, after playing it couple times, it feels like HDR and the only reason I use hyper fighting as a starting point is for that fact, I don't want everyone to have this awesome expectation for something that no game's netcode can really matchup. So I rather set a precedence of low expectations and I figured it might as well start by saying Hyper Fighting since that netcode was garbbage compare to just about any online game I've played, maybe even worst than GG #R, who knows. But if that's what you guys really wanted to hear, its very similar to HDR.
Netcode testing is done US vs Japan for almost a full month. There were times, lag was a bit rough but there times lag was almost not there. There is no input lag if you guys were wondering...[/quote]
[quote name='AksysGames']the match making system is awesome. I can honestly say, BB online model is far superior compare to SF4. Though might be a bold statement, But here's a quick breakdown:
Here's one scenario that should give you an idea.
I log onto XB Live, Play BB, go on network mode. I look for a rank match, but before that I wanna see among my friends who's in the top. From there, I can see some replays of my friends matches that they uploaded and see how they are doing. It'll even show you who they last played based on the icon next to their name. Next, I get bored watching my friends bullshit replays so I wanna see the top of the top, so I browse on the monthly leaderboard, I can now see who's at the top and check out his best replays and realize how sucky or how much better I am...So I get pumped up and I noticed some of my friends are online as well. So I start a lobby and start dictating the amount of slots I want for players and spectators. From there, I invite all my friends and we all say wassup and proceed to kick each others ass. We can save replays, spectate, and talk as much trash as we want. But wait, I got a homie that just signed on, sends me a msg, talking shit about my match!
But when I look at my lobby he ain't there!
How that works is my boy is searching for rooms to join but before joining, a player can see what's going on in each room, including icons that display who's currently fighting in the current match, who's winning the match, connection speed of the room, and who's in the lobby.
And there is still various other options and setups.. but that's just one example from player match...I hope that gave you an idea on what is to come.
And yes, this is for PS3 as well. So no haters please....
Now, hook up some rep points![/quote]
