So it's weird- I restarted the game and started getting better load times in some modes but not in others.  Some as short as 14-15 seconds versus 20-ish on consoles.

I have to run the game borderless windowed to get the right aspect ration (ultra-wide monitor), but this causes some slight performance issues in most games for me and I think this is one of them.  Will try forcing 16:9 before playing next time and try full-screen.  As-is I noticed some frame drops here and there- reminded me of the Switch port.

Got some matches online.  The first was AWFUL and so laggy I could barely do anything.  Others were better.  About the same as the consoles.  I played a guy and beat him the first two matches, then he switched to Shizumaru and kept getting me.  It would be down to no life and he kept winning.   :lol  Not my night for it. 

I think the game looks a bit sharper than the PS4 version.  My monitor isn't 4K so I might install this on my laptop and try seeing how it runs on a 4K TV.

not trying to gripe too much about another free character added, but feels like this and warden should have been free in first place. assuming this is it S2 was way weaker than S1.

Hope it actually works online on the consoles.  :-\

I was happy with S2, with the exception of the Warden.  This new addition may indicate that another round of characters are coming- Warden was supposed to be it for S2 DLC.

Samurai Shodown NeoGeo Collection is up for consoles now- double-dipped on Switch and PS4.  The latter comes with the PS2 port of SSVI as a separate game download, too. 

Hope this is better online than the PC version. :dizzy

Does any fighting game have good online anymore?

I feel like people complain about online is every fighting game there is this gen.

You're not wrong! :lol

But I'm not even talking about matches on PC- I never even got into one!  That's how broken it is or was.  I gave up after a week. Good thing it was free!

I checked out the PS4 version of this and got into a match pretty quick against somebody on the other side of the country and it was pretty good so decent first impression.  I'm not sure if I really see the HD filtering thing they were talking about- it's off by default and I made sure it was on, but it looked like any other older sprite based game running on a PS4 to me.  Dunno, but looks good with the TV filter on.

The next DLC character has been revealed and will be free:



Looks more interesting than the Warden, I guess.

Never heard of Honor for Kings, but moveset looks good.

Are all cameos going to have the word "for" in their name?  :derp

The Neo Geo Collection is so awesome. Bought the digital version, ordered the deluxe physical version from the snk shop, and i'm eye-ing getting a bootleg mvs copy to play on the real hardware..  :doge

I need to stop fucking around and buy Samurai 2019. But I'm 100% overloaded with games right now.

New char is pretty wild, very unorthodox. Feels more blazblue than samsho. moves position the umbrella which creates a warp point, also the SSM depends on where it is.

I don’t see myself playing her much but like that move set is a bit out there.

The next DLC character will be from THE LAST BLADE!  :o

Quote
“I’m proud to announce we’re bringing a character from The Last Blade into the Samurai Shodown Season Pass 3,” Samurai Shodown director Hayato Konya said in a special video message.



SNK producer Yasuyuki Oda added, “Wow! It’s that old fogey, Genbu no Okina, right?”

Konya responded, “Nope! Actually, they’re someone the fans absolutely adore! Of course, we’re also balancing and adjusting the game as well. You guys are really gonna love it!”

I'm all for it, but the two games' settings are a couple hundred years apart. 

Something about The Last Blade that I loved was the small connection to the South Town games- Zantetsu is Eiji Kisaragi's ancestor.  :bow SNK :bow2

I got the new SS last week. I regret not getting this at launch. IT'S AMAZING. I actually went "wow" when I saw the final boss for the first time. Very impressive stuff. The fighting engine is GREAT. I feel stupid for avoiding this game because I felt it would be a disaster like Samurai Shodown 64 or that one atrocity that was on the xbox 360. It feels like the original games yet it looks amazing in 3d.


Is the game kinda dead online? I could only find one lobby.

edit: I just went on gamefaqs to see if there were any secret bosses like in Samurai Shodown 5 / Perfect and  :doge there are no faqs for this game. Signs of the times.

edit2: i wish there was an english physical strategy guide for this.. Yeah youtube is there but it's fun for just open a book and read about combos with step by step screencaps :D

It's amazing! Too bad online and loading kinda sucks, but really solid and probably 2nd fave fighter of the gen after T7.

I'm hoping that the next gen update will lessen the load times on Series X and PS5.

Yeah, I bounced on SS because the load times were too much.

Really like the game otherwise. Give me a no-load version and I'll probably go back to it.
