Christian Svensson was back on the Unity Boards recently, covering a bunch of topics, from what the HD Remix patch will fix to copying the PS3 save file.Will the new HD Remix patch fix the game statistics?
Sven: The fix of the stats site is tied to the patch fix (which addresses some of the leaderboard issues).
Can you create a patch for SFIV so there's a screen adjustment option?
Sven: [...] This is not an issue that is planned to be addressed as far as I'm aware.
How come HD Remix looks better in a 4:3 screen ratio? Things get clipped in the 16:9 view.
Sven: 4:3 is the standard on HD remix because the original code is based upon that format.
That said, by and large, for titles that were originally 4:3, we will try and make 16:9 the default because that is, "the new hotness." At the same time, we'll try to allow for support to go back to 4:3 for purists/competition players or people still playing on SDTVs.
We try to embrace 'options'.
Why is the PS3 Street Fighter IV save file copy locked? — Jesster
Sven: I'm unsure. If I were to guess though, it would be to ensure that people who use a given character have actually "earned" that ability themselves, rather than just copying a buddy's save file.
I'm going to buy a new hard drive soon because I'm running out of space as I have only 40GB. Please tell me that I'm not going to lose all the hours I put in SF4 for no good reason at all.
I suspect the backup utility for the PS3 will copy everything (locked or no), but I don't know for sure as it tends to mirror the drive contents (right down to downloads that are "in progress").
Can people with different versions of Street Fighter 4 play against each other? Like PS3 vs. XBox 360?
Sven: There's no cross play possible on consoles. (Editor's note: Cross play with the PC and XBox 360/PS3 releases has also been ruled out.)
