I just wanna play Taka, I never got to play VF3 so I know jack about him. All I know is they removed him from vf4 cause he broke the game due to his size.

gently caress YES! I've missed this game ever since I moved back from Japan, I played SO MUCH of this in the arcades in Tokyo (and VF5:R before that). I own a huge number of fighting games on my PS3 and this game is better than all of them.

It's worth noting too that gameplay-wise FS is a huge upgrade over vanilla VF5, so don't skip this if you liked the original. Please please buy the poo poo out of it so VF gets a shot in the arm in the West!

I posted it on the last page but since you're talking VF5 again, here's the VF5FS synopsis from the Japanese website:

quote:

Online Mode: up to 8 players, spectator mode included. Traditional options for room size, region, as well as to allow playable Dural

Customizable costumes: Because VF5FS is close to the maximum size allowed for DLC games, all items other than the defaults are not included in the game and are sold as DLC. Items will be sold separately and in packs.

Training: Options for throw escapes, evades, rising attacks/speed and struggle from guard breaks.

Replays: You can save offline AND online matches. Frame data, etc. will be included

License Mode: Tons of challenges as you fight the CPU. There's stuff like "all moves can be canceled", "half weight gravity" and "opponent health doubled", etc. Clear a challenge and get a special license.

Button configuration: You can set up the controller at the character select screen, and there's also a "button check" option too so you can check to make sure your buttons are properly configured and working!

tl;dr: DLC custom items sucks, everything else is awesome.

This game is going to own.

Licence mode is essentially gonna be similar to vf4evo's arcade mode challenges. Those were fun from some extra gold for buying costumes and wallpapers.

So are any goons going to Final Round? It's going to be my first tournament and I've already got the jitters. If anyone wants to hang out I'm going to be there each day. Mainly I need to borrow a PS3 stick and a shoulder to cry on once I go 0-2.
Yeah, I'm going to be there.

Getting a stick should be trivial, you can usually ask any random person "hey man can I borrow your stick for a match". If nothing else you can use mine when I'm not in a SCV match.

Have to agree. Get rid of Alpha 2 and 3 because they are bad. Replace with Breakers and Karnov because those are at least hilarious and fun.

Also replace Garou with Real Bout 2, because Garou is also bad.

I like alpha 2 and I suggested xvsf. Xvsf is a very fun game that is extremely easy to pick up. Alpha 2 is fun but far more difficult to learn IMO

Concerning the DLC in Virta Fighter 5: if Sega sells costume pieces as separate DLC because there's no space left for costumes, does that mean that we won't see other people's costumes unless we buy everything?

No, you won't be able to see them. It's been officially confirmed. So if you want to dress your guy/gal up in gold glitter and vocaloid hair-do, your opponent will only see your character in their default gear. It would be funny if they end up in their E suit swimwear though.

Alpha 2 is fun...at least until people start doing 50% health CCs and Valle CCs and Rose ACs and...Alpha 2 is fun, I swear! It's not just because my favoritest character is overpowered in that game that I like it!

I wish I could get anihilated by you guys in various games I have no idea how to play, but Brazil. It would probably be a miserable experience for me and whoever ended up playing me.

Alpha 2 would be one of my favorite games if Chun Li didn't exist, and if the "alpha parts" (ACs, CCs) were removed. As it is, it's just pretty fun to play!
