Either way, it’s awesome to see BBCF with good netcode.
I’m honestly just curious about the history for how it happened. Was Arc Sys already working on it or did they reach out to the fans working on it and support their efforts?

Iirc it was a fan made project and arcsys just funded. Maybe they helped with something else, who knows?
Ah, sounds like a +R situation. Makes sense
There was a fanmade rollback project, but it hadn't evolved past infancy before ArcSys brought the BBCF improvement mod guy on to lead their own rollback development project.
If only Nintendo did something similar…
Pretty sure you're right yeah, same for BBTAG.
There were fans working on BBTAG rollback? Thought it was just BBCF
Yeah BBTAG gets roll back in like a year
I know that. I double checked and didn’t find anything about fans working on it. That’s all Arc Sys
As far as I am concerned just like +R It started fan made but during the development they approached arc sys and they decided to pick up the project
So the fans working on rollback approached Arc for help? For +R it was the other way around
The fan-based group were working on the basis for an open-source rollback implementation to build into the existing BBCF improvement mod, they did not approach arcsys about official implementation. Arcsys approached the developer of the improvement mod itself, KoviDomi, to start development of an official rollback implemenation. The development of official rollback was completely unknown to the fangroup working on their own rollback mod until the beta announcement, as KoviDomi was under NDA with ArcSys, and was unable to release info about the official project.
I see. Thanks for correcting me. Arc sys once again proves they are the goat
Ah, okay. Thanks for the details
Imagine Rev 2 with Rollback...
The fanmade rollback mod never actually saw the light of day. Arcsys did, however, hire the guy who made BBCF improvement mod to work on their own rollback implementation.

Interesting. Thanks for clarifying
