Petition to get Soul Calibur V on GGPO

isn't GGPO impossible for 3D fighters? too taxing? or something?

or they have to design the game with GGPO in mind? or something? plz clarify.
 
Signia, it is possible to do. I can't give details because I am not technically inclined, but it can be done. I do know there isn't much data being sent back and forth with SC4, something like 150kbps.

Oblivion, Online will be a great experience in itself. Trust me, you want to sign this petition so you can enjoy it to the fullest.
 
The resources being taxed when people talk about ggpo and 3d fighters are not online resources, they are cpu resources. Simply put, current gen systems may not be powerful enough to run ggpo alongside a game like Soulcalibur 5. If that were true then things would have to be changed for online play (this already happens in some console games, mostly fps), lower res textures, less animations, less effects. At the very least. It has nothing to do with network resources.

Even ggpo users will have encountered this, specifically with 3rd Strike. If your computer can run 3rd Strike at full fps, at whatever res, offline, no stutters, no slowdown at all, it still may not be powerful enough to run 3rd Strike over ggpo, and as your frame rate drops you will start to chop and lag both yourself and the person you're playing against. In order to play 3rd Strike over ggpo you need a system far and above what is needed to play 3rd Strike offline.
 
Offline is what matters.
They should put their complete focus on offline.
Online doesn't matter it is just an ad on.
Considering 90% of our fanbase (AKA those who are actually responsible for our loving game being a success or not) are not competitive and will most likely only play Online, the producers should really focus on making that aspect of the game pristine. This is a solid petition. Will sign.
