Capcom’s finally beginning to detail a system that penalises players who quit out of online play after losing. Oh, and Guile will be April’s DLC character.
The latest update on Capcom Unity details the first steps that the publisher will be using to punish rage-quitters:
We’re also happy to announce that we will be implementing a system to punish players who frequently disconnect during matches (aka rage quitters).
The way this will work is the system will identify players who have high disconnect rates during matches and will lock them out of matchmaking for a period of time. Players who have been identified as abusing the system will receive an in-game message notifying them they have been locked out of matchmaking. More additions and enhancements to this system will be implemented in the future.
You can find more details about the April update and Guile DLC here.

I bought SFV to play with my son and he enjoyed it a bit. But without a decent single player mode there’s not much value in it.
Then last weekend we got Pokken Tournament. Holy mackerel! It’s an awesome game. Even easier for the kids to get into and do all the moves. Tons of strategy and a good best 2 out of 3 single player mode.
I hope SFV eventually gets a good single player mode, but otherwise we’ll be playing Pokken.
I’m the same, I like the game but no real single player mode its going to gather dust on my shelf, I don’t bother much with online cause I always get ‘caned’ 90% of the time cause I’m a very casual player
Still not an adequate solution, should really be docking like 250 points (like they did with USF4) and awarding maybe 50 points to the person that was quitted on. People who rage quit will probably rage quit out of playing online entirely for a while
Guile “DLC”
assholes. make Charlie/Nash DLC. Fucking Guile? Guile?! DLC sucks!
Free for now, and can buy with the fight money. I have tons of fight money just from playing a bit of survival mode, and don’t really feel like “buying” costumes with it, so “buying” Guile will be fine. For free.
That’s exactly what I was thinking. Guile as DLC? Is Capcom broke or something?
Ummm, why shouldn’t guile be DLC?
Harsher penalties needed. Dock points from these losers. The kind of petty child who rage quits with regularity should be treated like one.
