Its good that they finally have custom matchmaking. But the fact that a fighting game from the year 2023 didn't launch with such a basic feature might be one of the saddest things I've ever seen in gaming.
You know whats really fucked up? They give you the option to turn on or off spectator mode [ I don't know who the hell would turn off spectator mode ] but they don't give you the option to turn the emotes? What the fuck!?
Online has mostly been for me. But I'm on PC. Also it was easiest to find matches via VS Team or Single set to same region and broad settings. Also I think the emote button is pretty funny. A full lobby of people reacting and seeing multiple reeactions durring a fight is entertaining
We should have been waived the game off when they didn’t have this on launch. Just maybe they would take a hint we don’t support it but yet these guys will keep praising bare minimum
God damn just stop complaining they can fix everything and you guys will still be like “it should’ve been like that” oh well it wasn’t who cares either drop it or stop whining.
The mentality you have is exactly why they don’t care enough to release an actual finished product. Adding a feature to invite your own friends to play with you is not fixing lol
It's funny how everyone thought the reason they didn't enable custom matches was because they were patching it. Only for it to release with the SAME ISSUES as the modded version
@wick9368 I do via pirating it but I know cc2 enough to tell you that they'll do bare minimum and don't fix anything until that next dlc comes out even if I didn't own it doesn't mean I can't calculate the date of patches or dlc.
sooooo....am i the only one that noticed that afro's connections was down in the red? maybe that's why the battle wasn't so great and all? also I've had a couple of battles today and my online matches have all gone very smoothly. I've honestly suffered no issues at all which is surprising =) also nice video
Yeah good luck finding anyone else noticing because otherwise it’s gonna be another moment where hardly no one paying attention carefully like you and me.
Exactly, imagine if tekken 8 released with no beta. We’d have Kazuya doing 50 damage off a string and every character doing massive damage with the broken heat meter
Hate that you can’t select random characters when playing custom match, Storm 4 had it and as always, they took a step back. Now you have to choose preset or create one everytime you wanna swap to different characters.
It's great that they got custom lobbies but damn the fact that it didn't come out with custom lobbies kind of shows that like some game developers don't understand that sometimes we just want to fight our homies they're like the only challenge we get is when we fight our friends sorry if this is very incoherent and or sloppy I am using text-to-speech because I have to be drunk off vodka have a good day or night y'all
Storm 4's was way superior, If i wanted ranked or playermatch, I could select from the available rooms in the list, same with Endless. Now it's russian roulette on all modes unless I make a lobby with 'friends', I don't have any that play connections. This is so bad.
both of you use VPN? most of the times it's the router ports, i can play with some people great and other very bad, and it's not the other connection problem
I always expect top notch content. Glad to know globku is just another outside the US-Jackass. Hit key points and talk about them, Jesus Christ go to college
I don't understand the pro-armor argument. Why should a player be rewarded with just pressing a couple of buttons? The KNJ window is a good point, but that's not going to make spammers think twice when they can throw out jutsus without thinking twice.
Playing Devil Advocate for Armored Jutsu ALOT players will mash you to death..prime example of this is Neji+⭕️ ⭕️⭕️⭕️ so it’s fair game if someone decides to use rasengan
@@king_isshiki you should probably play the game first before knocking it. Storm connections was a lazy cash grab and all it has going for it is pretty animations
@@Zee-bx4ns I won't play that trash, you can't even deal damage in combat with normal combos and the combat is floaty asf, the roster size is small, etc. Connections is perfection tho, much better than that cashgrab game.
You probably won’t be able to find any matches if you’re an Xbox player, I’m on series x and have been trying since launch and still not a single online match to be found
Tbh, if they delayed the game to October 2024, we would've launched with customs as well as Hagoromo, Borushiki, Kawashiki, Isshiki, and Kurenai. The DLC roadmap feels like they really needed the extra time to squeeze in those characters. It's most likely Bamco's fault tho due to the rush for Naruto's anniversary. Idk bout y'all, but I'd rather a finished and polished product be released, than having to wait for customs, etc. I really hope we get more DLC characters than just these 5, Maybe Shizune, Chojuro, any of the Boruto era Genin (Shikadai, Inojin, Chocho, Iwabe, etc)
Did anyone else see the red bar during Afro and globku fight??? I know we in different regions but aren’t yall on pc wired???? Stop praising CC2 this is terrible

@dominicc7278 if you think about it... Storm 1 was less than mid, it only got hype becuase of the graphics back then.. what was it? Like 2008?

I guess one good thing is the balance patch still hasn’t come out so by some miracle they fix the online issues maybe it happens when that comes out

Mine freezes as soon as i click on it
Globku keeping anime games alive, all 2024
PLEASE! Devs never stop updating and adding to this game and bring back some old stuff from storm 4 and pervious games and update net code pls😅
Finally now they only need to take out Jutsu armor and balance the game right.
Storm 4's was way superior, If i wanted ranked or playermatch, I could select from the available rooms in the list, same with Endless. Now it's russian roulette on all modes unless I make a lobby with 'friends', I don't have any that play connections. This is so bad.
Does custom lobbies allow for couch co-op? if so i might actually consider getting this game.
Nope splitscreen isn't a thing in this modern day it's really disappointing
Couch co-op was present at launch already, in Free Battles. You need 2 controllers tho.
@@base-vegeta3611 You don't need splitscreen for this game. Two players can share one screen.
So its kinda like a mix of fighterz and mortal kombat 11’s custom lobbies. Thats actually pretty great even if it came late lol
Lol afro's connection the entire time was 2 bars, probably why ya'll were lagging
Guys can you tell me the leak dlc character so i know is in it
I really hope they eventually patch the game so that the adult versions of team Asuma team Kurenai and the sand siblings can do their team ultimates
I dont like that some assist characters have armor when u try to hit them
Still can't back out of Rank if someone has shit connection. Wow what an update.
It wasn't a ranked update...
