Hate Speech: When Worlds Collide (Revisited)

Last night was online-day two for me. Overall, its been a pretty damn good experience. I must say it was a lot easier to blast SC online back when the netcode was ass. I'm still taking it with a grain of salt though, so i dont think win/loss records are going to effect me so much (legendary souls is more frustrating than ranked). I never really shed the scrub level of play before dropping SC4, maybe i'll actually be decent this time around.
 
Most of the people having connectivity issues should check to see if their PS3's are getting a NAT 3 connection (limited connectivity), when they should have a NAT 2 (router) or NAT 1 (direct to modem).

My router got reset some time in the last few weeks and it took me a minute to realize that was the issue and NAT type 3 was why I was showing zero bars on everything and disconnecting all the time. Once I set everything up the way it needed to be I got my NAT 2 back and can play fine.

That link has information on the necessary steps to achieve NAT 2.
 
Overall I am really liking this game, the more I play the more I realize how tightly it is playtested.

Astaroth, Mitsu, Sieg, and Nightmare are still OP, but only somewhat though.
 
Online play is a double edged sword. (yeah)

With so much cannon fodder out there I'm afraid I'm not learning anything useful. Worse yet, you can develop really bad habits while playing against punching bags.

Though if someone I face is far greater skilled than I am, I'm not learning anything other than how to take a 17 hit combo and get ripped 3 times in a row.

It's hard to find a middle ground. When you do find someone equally matched however, this is when the game really shines. It's then I can feel proud about my exhilarating win or loss.
