Senran Kagura: Shinovi Versus |OT| Life Returns to Vita

Oh noes, I just got hit by Rainbow Panties bug.

Darn....

I don't really want to redownload 20 hairstyle DLCs...

Will there be an automated fix?

Edit: Bit the bullet and did it. I hate the Vita's download list.
In these cases, isn't it possible to press download on the collection's storepage and download everything in one go?

Wish there was a demo for this game. Interested but I would like to try it first.

If you've played 3D brawlers and enjoy them there's really not too much to be worried about. Gameplay is solid, performance is great, hopefully you're okay with the fanservice or you shouldn't be asking, but the game is plenty enjoyable beyond that. Lots of content, around 20 hours.

On Vita it automatically does it I think. It just grosses up the download list at all.

It should be mentioned you CAN skip the fanservice for the most part, since people were glad to know this when it came to Burst. Just press Start or X during transformations or "damage" cutscenes. Heck, I started doing this in both SV & Burst because after seeing it once for each girl, I just want to get back to fighting and keep the flow of the battle going.

Speaking of content, I really wish the unlockable stuff in the store was spread out better. I guess the logic was to unlock it all early on so you can have all the outfits available to use on all the girls early on instead of having to wait after you've beaten, say, 3/4 of the games to get a new outfit, but it helps give motivation to continue the game and see what else is there.

True, though at the very least there's still the potential of characters running around in whatever the most modest undergarments you can put on them, since you can skip the "strip" cutscenes but clothing damage will still take place.

You can also totally skip the story if you want, but it's probably about 90% different from what you'd expect. Of 20 playable characters there are like 5 who either focus on their boobs or sexuality in actual dialog/personality and it's surprisingly irrelevant to the overarching plot.

Surprised that this in still in stock on Amazon. I hope it's selling well.

I recall we got a sales statement on Burst (they said it met expectations, I think? "really well" was the statement), so maybe we'll get one on SV (& Bon Appetit, though I'm guessing sales will be lower than Burst & SV).

The PSN Asia Store that I'm using doesn't have the hairstyle collection as one option for EN. It does for Japanese though.

Also the retail version that I have has no physical extras, but Rin & Daidoji are more important that physical extras. (I feel left out though)

Last time someone asked Tom for one, he said it was still too soon to say anything.
 
Just got my copy a few days ago and the difference between this and Burst is no small thing. Really having a good time with it and was even happier when I realized you could lock on by tapping on an enemy. Can't wait to play more!

Does anyone know what's the use of the Ying and Yang stats¿

EDIT: Also, what's the corrupt DLC especifically¿ Or is it all of them¿ I wanna download everything that's free and won't destroy my file.

Yeah did they fix the bug? I still haven't downloaded the new dlc.

The DLC bug has been fixed, and we've checked all future DLC for the game as well to ensure it doesn't happen again. You guys should be safe now!

Is the one on the Asia store fixed too?

Edit: Yes, it is fixed. I now have Rainbow Panties!

Wow, just started the game today. There isn't any comparison to be made with the 3DS game, the Vita one is just way better on the eyes! So crisp, so defined. That qHD graphics.

I honestly hope that Deep Crimson is the last SK game on the 3DS, it looks and runs so much better on Sony consoles

I think this game might have the shortest start-up time for the intro to come up again after idling on the main menu. It's like four seconds, lol.

I was just wondering about this. It's too bad this happened in the first place, but it's good to know that all has been resolved. Thanks for the update, Tom!

Ugh trying to beat 5-5 on Hanzo Hard is getting really annoying to me.
So dumb to have you fight her all over again with no checkpoints and they refill all her life while they leave you at practically nothing.
It takes me like 15 minutes even to beat her the first time, and now I'm having trouble even doing that on hard cause they never give you a chance to attack. How can I attack constantly like they do? It's starting to feel unfair, but I want to play Hard mode as the regular mode feels like a joke difficulty wise, but this is starting to get really bad in terms of how fair these fights are. I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or what, but this fight is starting to seem impossible. Plus this damn freezing, this shit is the worst :(

EDIT: Just got super lucky and got a Level Up right before I died, finally won.

Time for some Gessen. Hopefully now I can freeze the shit out of everyone with Yumi

To quote Xseed:

"THE PANTYPOCALYPSE IS OVER! We finally got a fix for the SHINOVI VERSUS issue. Just re-download the affected DLC (rainbow panties/confused & censored face add-ons), re-install them and it should fix them! Go forth and Senran!"

How is it? You still can't get all the trophies if you are playing on a PSTV?

I think only the dressing room one should be a problem on PS TV, and it should be doable with a compatible mic and some rather awkward Touch Pointer stuff. I haven't dared try though. I had enough trouble with that trophy on a real Vita

Shinovi Versus has been very successful compared to the 3DS games in Japan, so this is very likely.

Dat Vita otaku demographics.

Good news honestly. Getting Estival Versus for PS4.
Hopefully they improve the ass graphics though, I've seen better

edit: Christ, I shouldn't have picked small registered packet to order that SK2 nyuu nyuu pack, it is somehow still in transit

Is anyone up for a few multiplayer matches tonight¿ (it's midday where I live)

Or is that forbidden in this thread¿

Why on Earth would it be forbidden?

I wish I could, but I won't have a consistent connection tonight.

You get what you pay for, man. 2-3 weeks on average. Sometimes much more. If you don't need an item quickly, it's perfectly fine and way cheaper than EMS.

Oh right multiplayer, I should try that. Uh...I dunno if I'll be able to play tonight due to LBP3 though, if it comes.

Anything to keep in mind when playing multi instead of single player? I only played 3 matches with bots. I noticed mutliplayer bots are like 10x fiercer than singleplayer bosses.

Never had it take more than 3 weeks, been at customs for over a week now. I don't need it urgent, just in one piece, surprised it's been so slow though.

So if I redownload the corrected DLC will it replace the old one or is going through all this crazy trouble the only way to get the game working correctly again?

Ah, allright. Anyone with a PSTV who would dare to try? Mostly because I would really like to know if its possible.

I could try for shits and giggles, but as mentioned above I'm terrible at getting it to work.

Does just any USB mic work on PS TV or what? I never tried.

Any chance of a big ol' "all the DLC" bundle? did the JP version have one? I barely bother to dress up anymore and I'm almost done with plat, but if I did buy, a big pack would be more appealing. That censor bar seems like it would have...applications, though

It'd be cool if they pulled a Little Big Planet and made DLC cross-buy for all their (playstation) games, continuing what they started with bon appetit. That'd make me actually buy for sure. Do we have any details on Estival yet actually?

Sorry to double post but does anyone know if re-dling the messed up DLC will fix the problem with the game booting up or do you HAVE to uninstall and all that mess?
