The messaging system was better on GFWL.
I never thought I'd be typing this, but I wish I had kept the GFWL version installed.
Oh well, I have it on 360 anyway.
Problems with the Steam version? It's been good for me.
I don't like various things about it that didn't come up on the GFWL version. It's all 'nebulous quality shit,' but enough of a difference that I've dropped the PC version for the PS3 rev (which is marginally worse than the 360 version, again for nebulous quality shit reasons).
The PC version of this game looks so damn good but the issues people are talking about... I expected it. The whole point of GFWL was supposed to be that it handles a bunch of stuff super easily alongside a 360 game and the 360 game handled that stuff well.
Even ignoring the 360 factor, I think both GFWL and Xbox Live take a chunk of work and even some hosting out of developer hands, which probably explains the significantly crappier time I had on PS3 Ultra than on 360. Steamworks is supposed to do the same, I think, but there were obviously some transitional issues. Maybe related to GFWL's 360 roots, idk.
Steamworks Ultra has been quite a bit better than PS3 for me, at least. Quick Match never works but Custom gets me into low-lag matches very quickly and reliably. I haven't played much of it yet, though.

The Youtube upload actually works at a decent speed unlike the 360 version so I sent my friend vids of me beating his ass ingame.
I'm still playing it on 360 and have been thirsting for the summer costumes sadly.
Had a few fun matches with Pineapple too (GG's dude!). Anyone want to do a tournament? That way everyone plays and we can play for virtual fight money.
I tried that Youtube uploading once more, replayed the match at regular speed and then looped it back at something like 1/10th speed, the whole process took like 20 minutes and at the end of the super slow replay it decided "Youtube servers cannot be reached, please try again later". No thanks!
GGs Will and yeah let's do a tourney or team battle soon!
