Street Fighter 5 server stabilty is key priority for Capcom, says Ono - CNET

Capcom has apologised for server issues affecting the online multiplayer in Street Fighter 5, and has said it is working on resolving the problems. Producer Yoshinori Ono has added that improving the stability of online play is a key conce at the moment.

Posting using the SFVServer account on Twitter, Capcom said it has "identified the issue that caused the servers to go back down." Since then, it has restored online play functionality but waed that some players "may experience intermittent disconnects."

"My sincerest apologies again about [the] SFV server situation," said Ono. "I think that we need to improve on this problem the most."

In an interview with GameSpot conducted in November 2015, Ono said the team would "do [its] absolute best" to ensure Street Fighter 5 wouldn't launch with severe connection problems like those encountered during the various betas.
