YouTube user SFV Mods Street Fighter V Mods uploaded a side-by-side video that compares the new mod to the standard load times. According to TOOLASSISTED himself, he unlocked and changed the character select user interface frame-rate from 60 FPS to 255 FPS. To tweak the loading times and vanquish mid-game boredom because of it, he altered only a single value.

Compared to Street Fighter 5's previous snail-trail pace that conjured up a less-than-optimal reputation for the game, TOOLASSISTED's mod is unbelievably quick.įollowing the video's release, TOOLASSISTED delved into some specifics regarding the process behind actually cutting down the load time and why they are so drawn-out in the first place. The clip, as seen below, is hilariously titled "SFV U LOAD FAST LOL," and it begins by showing viewers just how fast players can go from character selection to actual battle, which is almost instantaneous, and then quickly exit the game to choose another fighter and start over again. In a video posted on TOOLASSISTED's YouTube channel, the Street Fighter 5-modding vigilante demonstrates the power of the mod. Reddit user TOOLASSISTED created a mod for Street Fighter 5 that tackles head-on the load times many others have stamped as "abysmal" and " atrocious," so much so that they view the waiting period one of the game's largest issues that has affected its overall performance in sales and popularity. Fortunately for Street Fighter 5enthusiasts, one player did some handiwork to develop and unveil a mod that extinguishes that very frustration. In the year since Street Fighter 5first released, Capcom and the entire creative team have been hit with a few rough months (between May and September 2016) of poor sales and allegations that the game was incomplete upon launch, citing lack of content. While Capcom's long-running fighting franchise has found success in many of its installments, packing a literal punch onto consoles across the globe, its most recent re-entry into the gaming world has left many fans underwhelmed and overstimulated by one slight snag in particular: lengthy load times.

Knowing that one of Street Fighter 5's biggest hindrances is its frustratingly slow load times, one Reddit user creates a game mod that nearly eliminates wait time altogether.
