Unable to play SAMURAI SHODOWN

Vallo — Mon, 13 Apr 2020 12:23:56 GMT

Hi everyone, I recently purchased SAMURAI SHODOWN (60,99€ !!) with some dlc, since it is the only fighting game on Stadia (I wanted a game of the genre to be able to play with my friends). Unfortunately, however, I realized that this game has serious problems with regards to online. By experimenting I discovered that some functions do not work, and that multiplayer games are impossible to play!
I tried to contact the developers of SAMURAI SHODOWN (the SNK), but I never received a reply. I would therefore like to report this serious problem to the Google Stadia team. I don't know if it's a good idea to keep games with these serious problems in the Stadia store .... If a new user decides to buy SAMURAI SHODOWN, and finds himself playing a game with serious online problems, he would end up thinking that Stadia is a poor gaming platform, and would be bad publicity (and that's not the best for a new platform that has just been released for free!).
I hope the SNK team can listen to the Google Stadia team (which actually matters more than a single player), and can solve these serious problems as soon as possible which make their game really poor and unplayable (obviously with regards to all the options multiplayer and leaderboards).

I apologize very much for this complaint post, but I love Stadia very much, and I thought that reporting something like this could help make it a better gaming platform! @GraceFromGoogle

Hi @Vallo,

that sounds awful. Did you use already the feedback feature of the Stadia app to inform the team?

Just to be clear. Stadia it self works as you expected, but the game is lacking some features?

Do you play it on an Android device, a Chrome browser or via a Chromecast on a TV?

Hi,
the app's Feedback option is used to send feedback or ideas about the app. I don't think it's useful for reporting bugs within games.
That's right, the problem is inherent in the game, not in Stadia. Forgive me if I haven't been very clear in my post, but my English isn't very good.

I play both on PC and on TV, but I don't think this is important, since as I have already written the problem is internal to the game, and not to the operation of Stadia (most likely the porting on Stadia was not done properly).
