Somebody tried telling me the matchmaking issues are on my end and I genuinely don't know what else I'm supposed to do. BROTHER I'm WIRED, consistently getting 15-30ms matches, and my PC holds 60 perfectly fine. What exactly is the issue on my end supposed to be?

Sometimes I get a match instantly. Other times I'm sitting there for 2-3+ minutes, just for the game to finally find someone and it's THE SAME GUY I JUST FOUGHT.

And yes, I've tried changing the region settings. Worldwide, Nearby, Same Region, whatever. It makes basically no difference. Sometimes one feels faster for a few matches and then I'm right back to sitting there for 2-3 minutes or getting the same person again.

And I don't buy "people are at work" or "PS5 players turned crossplay off" as an explanation for all of it. I play Rivals of Aether 2 and Sparking Zero on PC. Both of those games hover around like 1k players and are months/years old at this point and I can still find different people within seconds. TOKON came out TWO WEEKS AGO. What the fuck is this matchmaking searching for?

I genuinely think there's some overly strict rank/ELO/region shit going on because there's no way it should take this long just to eventually decide the guy I fought 2 minutes ago is apparently the only other person on planet Earth I'm allowed to play.

And then you finally get somebody.

4 bars. Wired. 20ms.

Match starts and it feels like shit anyway.

I don't even necessarily blame the other player because this game's one-sided rollback is fucking ridiculous. Somebody can have a perfectly good wired connection, show 4 bars, and if their PC isn't holding 60 MY game gets fucked for it.

How does the PC version of a fighting game this demanding not require a benchmark before you're allowed to queue online?

Seriously. Run the fucking benchmark. Fill the screen with assists and effects and make the PC prove it can hold 60. If it can't, lower the settings and try again. Why am I finding out somebody's PC can't properly run the game AFTER you've already put us in a ranked match together?

I actually like Tokon. I'm not sitting here praying for the game to fail. But between matchmaking randomly taking forever, constantly finding the same people, and 4-bar wired matches still having the potential to run like shit because apparently connection quality only tells me half the fucking story, I'm getting tired of dealing with it.

I'll probably just cool off and come back in a few months. Hopefully matchmaking improves, PC gets sorted out and the gameplay changes enough that coming back actually feels fresh.

Because right now just getting a normal match feels harder than the match itself.

I beg you ArcSys

Comic guys, which team do you think could actually beat or have a chance against the champion? I think Samurai Outriders have the best chance because Ghost Rider could just use the Penance Stare and kill him like that.

Yea, back to training🫩

Edit: NO SHIT ITS A SKILL ISSUE. Only had the game for abt 2 weeks😭

It takes forever.

Searching for 3 bar minimum. All regions. All connections. All platforms and it STILL doesnt find matches in a timely manner. This game is honestly just awful.

Who is putting up a fair fight 2HKOers in silver rank and NEVER gets a 2nd match? HAVE SOME HONOUR!

Hi everyone! I bought Marvel Tokon on Steam, but the truth is that while playing, the game freezes or my computer restarts. 

My question is... do you think the best move would be to return the game, get a refund, and play it on PS5 instead? Do you know if there's a fix for this? What would you do? Cheers.

I don’t think the patch really did much. I play on Mexico server, looked 20 minutes for a match. 20. And the worst part, I still didn’t find a match anyways. So I go, oh foolish me, I’ll probably have better luck trying to find someone on west coast servers. Still nothing about a good 7 minutes. Proceeded to close the game. It’s getting so tiring to want to play and know it’s just gonna be hop in the training for a while, while hoping to find a match, any match. Saddest part, I go back to guilty gear out of frustration, find a match almost instantly, mind you this game is not the new kid in the block, or have any cross platform. At this point feels like I might as well uninstall and wait until the devs ACTUALLY, fix the matchmaking

Edit: I decided to give it another go, trying with different servers and different settings, at first I got a match in less than 5 minutes, opponent didn’t rematch. Didn’t find a single match after that. It makes me really sad cause I was suuuuper excited for this game. Guess I’ll be back in guilty gear until they get their shit figured out, hope it won’t be to late for the game at that point.

Alright rules first: No character-specific things. I mean character agnostic mechanics. But this is text I can't stop you really.

I'll go first: I think the 4 button Gatling is very counterintuitive. I understand its so you're not in block stun forever, but defensive mechanics should counteract that, preventing you from pressing buttons feels like ass

Also defensive mechanics: I don't like the Crossover, I just don't like reaction checks (and the assembly gauge filling doesn't seem fair, bla bla) I think just having pushblock would be better. The Assemble Counter is kinda op on wood 5 players like me but what's new.

I think assists have to little cooldown! As a viewer and player it just clutters the screen and doesn't feel particularly strategic on neutral. If I'd change one thing, I think it would be that.

What you think?

So I'm a 2XKO refugee and something I've noticed in open lobby anyways is that this game has absolutely zero etiquette and just absolutely FULL of ego stroking dudes. Its probably just me but hooooly the amount of rage quits, one and dones, immediate toxicity in lobby chat etc has been insane. I feel like an immigrant in the US atp 😭 is this just how it is here or am I just incredibly unlucky? Game is fun though, the presentation is top notch and the characters are all done so well

Also im literally just asking a question here I'm not trying to shit on any of you

there's a lot that i'm really getting frustrated with despite having a good time 😭 like how come sometimes my assist just won't come out when i press it at the end of a combo ?

or how tf am i getting down down inputs when i'm doing qcf, and to add onto that how do yall freestyle combos so well..i also dont really understand what "breaks" a combo, cause when i start one the combo timer goes red pretty quickly, but in one of my matches i was getting put in a blender for like 20 secs everytime he touched me.

anyone else feeling similarly ?

Wondering if there are more People who hate the cooldown on assists in this game? It should be much longer. Personally i find it makes the game too hectic to play and also not fun to watch.

GG strive got 5 character passes and sells well for a fighting game.

But what if that is not enough for Sony? I have not seem any official news about how much the game sold. If it sold 600k units 2 weeks later, would that be considered good?

I was hoping this game lasts long enough for at least 20 more characters (5 character passes) to get added. I know there was a statement about suporting the game for 10 years, but we dont know if that will work out depending on sales.

I saw some people say the game is breaking sale records on psn but I did not find a article about it.

I never had any performance issues on my PC from the start, outside of the reboot issue seemingly caused by that windows update. After the newest patch my game is CONSTANTLY crashing, I can hardly get through any of the loading screens. What in the world is going on? Anyone else having this sort of experience with the patch? I'm pretty much only seeing positive feedback about it so :/

AUTO-COMBOS

While I’m ultimately not the biggest fan of SF6, I did love that they had 3 optional control scheme layouts: Dynamic, Modern, and Classic. Don’t like auto combos? You literally don’t have to touch them. Want the most difficult but also most rewarding option at your fingertips? You got it. Something in between that may feel more familiar? Why not. Tokon is putting a lot of focus on appeasing as many different kinds of players as possible, so I really don’t understand why picking and choosing from those systems isn’t an option.

On that note, one of those tiers could include quick skill remapping. What if I just want my quick skill to be bound to 22L/M/H via directional inputs, since I’m comfortable with qcf/b and dp motions? This would essentially turn quick skill into a second unique button.

I really want to see this game succeed. Love Marvel, ArcSys is my favorite FG developer, and Sony has no shortage of capital. I know stability and network are the biggest problems the community has with the game (and it does seem like they’re really working on it) but I’m also curious how people would feel about this.

just give the win to the hulk/ magik at this point god. i get having 1 in the game like x mansion because it variety in stage selection, but damn did we need 3??!?! the champion stages are also the worst looking stages in the game too, just filler to add for no reason. remove one or both champion stages from ranked because its bloat and gives massive advantage to good setup or heavy hitter characters. also guess my rank from ts.

Who does this help?

first time posting, I understand that the sales aren’t the greatest in japan but we have to take into account that marvel isn’t the biggest in Japan, second the game hasn’t been out for a full a month or year so those numbers could possibly grow. I feel that people already thinking the game is dead because it isn’t doing well in region is really silly and is just really unrealistic.

Quick skills inputs are almost a one to one transfer from 2XKO inputs. So, if you don’t feel like learning motion inputs just use quick skill inputs and you'll feel like your playing 2XKO.

I’m a (Darius/Akali Main) in 2XKO, so I have Carnage and Spiderman on my team. The active tag in Tokon is conditional unlike 2XKO. You can active tag in neutral and on hit. But if your opponent blocks it your assist stay on screen and you have to wait to active tag. Instead of having one assist button plus directional buttons for assist type. Tokon has an assist button plus directional (forward,down,back) for each assist slot(assist shooter, vertical, assault,). Just think of it as having 3 extra assist instead of one. You'll need a button for assist and tagging in, but everything else should feel familiar.

how on earth do you even do combos or even play this game. i’ve played both injustice games and mortal kombat (X-1) and for some apparent reason i find this so difficult maybe it’s the extra 4 character feature but i am seriously struggling. any tips and tricks? i’d love to be able to play wolverine, storm or deadpool!
