Marvel T\u014dkon: Fighting Souls<\/a> has been highly anticipated for some time and that’s partly because it’s from Arc System Works, the company behind the likes of Guilty Gear, Blazblue, and Persona 4 Arena. Yet Steam users are disappointed in its opening few days. That’s because despite many praising the game itself, it reportedly has a litany of tech issues. <\/p>\n

The game currently sits at a ‘Mixed’ (56% negative) rating on Steam<\/a> with almost 1,600 reviews, and it appears to have around 10,000 concurrent players on SteamDB<\/a> at the time of writing. Considering it’s a $60 game, that’s a pretty sizable number of people. <\/p>\n

One of the top-rated negative reviews right now complains that they’re getting 45 fps on the game, where they get significantly more on Tekken and Street Fighter. This would be the perfect chance to use the fairly new system for adding PC specs into Steam reviews<\/a>, but alas, the user leaves none. Still, good performance is necessary for fighting games that rely heavily on reading moves and responding as fast as possible. Another popular negative review says, “either the netcode or the poor performance makes the online play very bad, with rollback spikes.”<\/p>\n
