It's not. Just run through arcade/time trial/survival on different difficulties.

Has anyone found the secret "change number of rounds" option. I haven't and it seems odd for it to just not exist.

I know last page it was called "fine" or whatever but how would you compare the online latency to say SSF4 or Soul Calibur 5? Also depending on how they deal with lag it could make defensive holds harder or easier, how is it done? In other words am I going to hate myself for buying this?

Online is pretty good I've only had 2 bad matches out of 80 something. Can't say I like the changes to multiplayer though. Now no one plays ranked anymore so I'm stuck at an F+.

Attention 360 owners There's a bug in the game where you may lose your save data if you accept an invite from your dashboard.

Way better than SSF4, I would say comparable/slightly better than SC5. I am super super sensitive when it comes to netcode and I would drop this game like nothing if it didn't live up to my expectations, it gets the thumbs up. Now for a random aside: After going through story mode I had no clue Lisa was supposed to have been a badguy the whole time, since like doa4, let alone a scientist/spy. *ed* uncleKitchener posted:Attention 360 owners Eek, good to know.

So, apparently someone has found an infinite in this game. Not sure if this is in fact an Infinite or not since I don't have the game yet. http://youtu.be/SS4Msf-Z05o

I was wondering why I could do two ground hits before anyways, I didn't really think to go for it again. And again. And again. And again.

InformationHigh posted:Actually I think you need to if you want Kasumi's kimono-like thing and kick rear end ninja outfit. Where she, you know, actually looks like a ninja for once. I just assumed those were auto-unlocked when you ran through arcade and got everything else. I hadn't finished story at that point and don't really play Kasumi, so I hadn't tested it. Still, it's not that big a thing to go through story mode and just do the matches since you can skip every cutscene and don't have to do the bonus missions.

The weirdest thing about the storymode is they show who won the tournament in the actual game. Normally you gotta wait for a sequel in any fighter to find out who wins. Anyway many many more games into online, netcode still holding up, so I am really stoked all in all  Mila's f,f,+p is a really dirty move, super fast, big range, and guard breaks. If you do it to someone in a corner and they block, you get a guaranteed stand jab off it(normally st.jab would whiff cause it lacks the range).

I'm really pleased with DOA5 its alot more fun to play than DOA4, the characters seem a bit better this time around. The MMA chick kicks arse and when you form a tag team between her and her idol Bass the win scene always cracks me up. The Story mode was funny it was cool to see the characters interact with each other, however I do miss the cutscenes at the end of Arcade mode though. My only gripe is the loading times they do get annoying I'm hoping they patch the game to make it a bit faster in this sense.

I have it (in fact I bought it digitally so I will never not have it ever again), I want to have some good old time non-stress fighting where I can just focus on kicking people down stairs and not necessarily winning. When are people meeting? edit: On the PS3 I mean...so I guess it won't be like old times after all. drat, I keep forgetting that.

Maybe I'm retarded, but is there a way to set custom controls? When I click on custom in the controller menu, nothing happens and it just asks me to confirm the already selected buttons.

Picked this up and finished the story mode. It's nice that they're actually trying to create a coherent story for anyone that actually cares about that kinda stuff, but shoehorning all the character that really had poo poo all to do with the plot made it feel all over the place and a bit weak. Then again, it's better than what SC5 did when they saddled you with the same two characters for the whole thing. Overall, I'm kinda happy with how story modes in fighting games have been happening since Mortal Kombat did what they did. I know most people don't give a poo poo about them, but they're usually a nice way to break into a game and get more familiar with it.

so apparently people get really pissed from me using brad wong and playing relatively defensively with his lying down stances, and if they don't close in I get up and purposely undershoot a torpedo attack which puts me at the perfect range for a throw/rising kick. Gamertag is RyogaTELB for anyone who doesn't mind having their connection cross the pacific to play.

Yo, StapleFrog, add yourself to the List, dude. Netcode is alright, but it really has nothing on TTT2 and VF5FS online play. Then again, those aren't P2P connections unlike DOA5. Uncle Kitchener fucked around with this message at 20:53 on Sep 29, 2012 |

I can't speak for ttt2 as I have not played it, but I find it fairly comparable to VF5FS myself. Although I hear a lot of strange online issues coming out of the Euro area so who knows???

It's been fairly slow for me I think, living in the middle of the ocean. Countering is so much more difficult than single player, for the same (grade F opponents) chains and stuff.

I can't really compare the netcode of this game to VF5. I had really smooth game with US players, but I'm just not getting the same even against EU players here.

Hoom I don't know if I am in the top percentile for internet speed or something(and I shouldn't be, living in a hick town as I do) but having played hundreds of final showdown matches I don't feel any comparable quality difference in DoA5 as far as netcode goes. If I was having consistently lovely online play on the par of like Marvel or borderline tolerable like sf4 I would be bitching to the high heavens. It saddens me to hear others having some issue though.

Added myself to the list. Gamertag is Melloblack2. Hopefully, school will give me enough time to actually sit down with the game and learn something that isn't just mashing out whatever.

I had a match where none of my inputs except movement worked. I couldn't even press start. All I could do was move around and watch while some guy got two perfect rounds then laughed and yelled some stuff in French. It worked fine after the match ended. On the plus side, I think I'm beginning to gather some nice negative feedback on my profile. A lot of anger all around in this game.

yeah netcode is no soul calibur 5 or tekken tag, but it's certainly not bad at all. As it has been said already, it could just be standard hawaii latency.
