Street Fighter x Tekken Freezing Glitch to be Fixed in June

Street Fighter x Tekken has a pretty serious bug. Thanks to a recent update, the game crashes whenever Rolento’s knife comes into contact with a projectile. Capcom producer Tomoaki Ayano apologized for the game breaking glitch and announced that a fix is on the way.

A release date was not provided, but the patch is expected to hit PSN and XBL sometime in the middle of June. Hopefully that one doesn’t introduce something far worse.

  1. Yeah, sure Capcom, it’s cool. Just leave that bug in there for a month, really! No need to rush yourselves!

    • I don’t know if they can be faulted for that one. They still have to find what causes the bug. Make a fix. Test it. Then send it to Sony and Microsoft for approval. I bet that takes around a month if everything goes according to plan.

      • …& then SCEE will have to QA test it – Expect it in 2013. ;P

      • Hm, maybe. Although I’d imagine that you’d just have to repeat the error whilst observing the debug code to find the fault. The point is though, that this shouldn’t have happened in the first place…

      • Yeah, a bug like this is in no way acceptable. Hopefully it’ll get fixed soon. It’s even worse for the tournament scene since there’s no way to revert back to a previous update. There are tournaments coming up. One next week. Another in mid-June. It would be nice to play a game that doesn’t freeze.

  2. why don’t they delete the last patch, and start from scratch.

    • I dunno. I figured they would pull version 1.04 and revert back to 1.03. That hasn’t happened to my knowledge.

  3. Surely anyone who has this game has got past caring now? With the numerous problems the game has had since launch combined with the DLC incident, if I personally owned a copy it would have been traded in a long time ago.

    • This game is played at a competitively level, so there’s definitely some people that still care about it. It’s at every major tournament and will be at EVO this year (which is the biggest tourney of them all). At the very least, those people still care about the game in some capacity.

      • Fair enough. I just thought they would have gone back to something like SF4, which is in a state worthy of playing at tournament level.

    • Most Capcom players tend to play both. But yeah, Super Street Fighter IV and Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 are definitely the most popular right now. MK9 and Soul Calibur have very strong showings for MLG too.

  4. and when they break something in that patch, they’ll have to patch the patch to patch the patch patch.
    if if that patch adds another bug they’l havt to patch the patch patch that patched the patch patch, and so on.

    jiminy jillikers, i’ve typed the word patch so many time it’s lost all meaning. ^_^
