Ultra Street Fighter IV Is Kinda Broken on PS4 [Update]

Bugs, glitches, lag. You name it, and people are reporting that Ultra Street Fighter IV’s PS4 port has it. Update: Capcom issued the following statement to Kotaku: We are aware that some users are experiencing problems huc with the PS4 version of USFIV, huc which is published and developed by SCEA’s Third Party Production group. SCEA and Capcom are currently looking into the issues that some users may be experiencing and are working to resolve them as quickly as possible. We will continue to provide updates on our progress. The integrity of the Capcom Pro Tour is a top priority for us and we will continue to work with tournament organizers worldwide to ensure that the highest quality event will be run. Each region will maintain its current hardware standard for the remainder of the 2015 Capcom Pro Tour until otherwise announced. We will keep you updated as to when the PS4 version of USFIV will be integrated into the Pro Tour. Last year, Ultra Street Fighter IV was released in arcades as well as on the PS3, Xbox 360, and PC. This week, the PS4 port hit, and boy, does it appear to have problems.(new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c&cid=872d12ce-453b-4870-845f-955919887e1b'; cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c" }).render("79703296e5134c75a2db6e1b64762017"); }); [Photo via almakashi] There are smaller issues, such as the main screen saying “Press Start” when, you know, the DualShock 4 doesn’t actually have a Start Button. Then, the game’s interface seems to suffer from lag: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hIqLhcOL-w https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cc1uVVtrEh4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wkm84zBl4ug USF4 Ps4 : decapre's tp nerfed !! Slow and less distance !! @Alioune85 @Jeh0San @NYCPoeM @Hurricane237 https://t.co/VXLNbyQup4 — Anis Kx HUC99 Hmi (@kahikusu) May 26, 2015 HUC99 I am so mad right now. We got ripped off and were forced to buy this as tournament competitors. I don't see myself playing this unless patch — Hamad Akbar (@WTHamad) May n98 26, 2015 This port n98 needs a patch and quick. To make things even worse, Ultra Street Fighter IV will be played at the upcoming Evo 2015 in July. And add in reports that moves feel off and characters are even nerfed: Sound bugs. Ungh. There are visual bugs and glitches: Capcom has not yet responded to requests for comment. To contact the author of this post, write to bashcraftATkotaku.com or find him on Twitter@Brian_Ashcraft

I enjoy the daily missions and rewards system. It gives me extra motivation to play regularly and allows me to earn more coins and bonus items, which enhances the overall gaming experience.

Some games take a while to load on mobile, but once they start, the gameplay is smooth and exciting. I hope future updates improve mobile performance, but I still enjoy playing several hours a day.
