I think this is why you're an ST scrub. IMO.
That's a legitimate complaint. You know how hard it is to do Sakura's combos in AE? Most of the moves are one-frame links.

What have they done wrong? You want ping? It takes so long for the result someone will already be in the room most of the time. What else is wrong? Ultimate and SF4 have fine online play. If you're going to bitch about lobbies blame separate teams because Capcom has said each team develops its own lobby system so they cannot use one from another game. Lag can't be blamed by Capcom if someone else has a shitty connection.
So please, tell me what's the fucking point because it doesn't seem like anything else you can bring up matters for online play.
Show me pings, not bars. If you can show me bars, you can show me ping. This is for every game. The red-yellow-green bar system in every single game has been incredibly inaccurate.
I've played enough Ultimate that I've recognized that the only way to insure that a five bar match is actually a really good connection is to mash on the ready button and gauge the response time myself before the other player loads, because the connection quality at five bars varies so wildly. I also played enough SF4 to recognize that four bars when joining a match myself was usually a reliably good connection, but when I create the match, and someone with four bars joins, there was always a much better chance of it being laggy. It's just terrible, inconsistent bullshit.
But If the bars were accurate, give me SF4's system all day every day. Give me a list, and let me pick the best connection. If I'm a retard that doesn't care about lag, then I'm not mad either and everyone wins.
And if they don't want to do that and feel the need to auto-match me like they have in every single game since even though no one complained, then they sure as hell need to give me a filter option that says "give me five bars or get fucked".
They've addressed that issue for their last three fighters. Again, blame separate dev teams. The ones behind 3SOE are adding ping in a patch.
I'll blame Capcom. Because they're awful.
And the fact that they're patching 3SOE a year later is HILARIOUS.
Is it? They've already patched the game once but now they're going to take a look at cosmetic shit. They were probably trying to see if Capcom would allow them to rebalance the damn thing and they got the boot to the dick.
Still, it seems like you're angry at yourself more than Capcom. You should talk to someone about it.
I think I should just go play more marvel because I like it so much but hate all of the obvious dumb mistakes that capcom has made in regards to its matchmaking.
Both UMVC3 and SFxT have worse online play than SF4. Hard to imagine they can worse over time, but somehow Capcom managed it.
It's also a moronic waste of time and resources for each team to code their own lobby system. Make a library and share the code. It's not hard.
And Blaz has better online than all the Capcom games.
