Virtua Fighter 5: Online in Japan is an impossibility, mainly due to the connection speeds being too fast. It gives the game a wacky Bernie Hill sense speed. Plus Sega has their Japanese Arcade market to think about! Oh noes!
I'm looking forward to the sales figures for the 360 version:
1) Good sales. The Xbox demographic stop pretending to like Dead or Alive now they have a good fighter and buy VF5 in droves.
2) Poor sales. The Xbox demographic actually prefer the Dead or Alive series, a sure sign of poor taste.

Uhh, DOA 4 is a quality fighting game. I dont understand why some people feel the need to crap on it. I mean ive played at least 500 matches online and never felt like the game lacked balance or strategy. And the combat flows better than any other fighter out there. I also find it funny that you look forward to the sales figures more than the actual game.

I don't and will never understand. If DOA is such a crappy, lackluster fighter, why does it typically score admirably well whenever it is reviewed? The same applies to the entire series actually. I am not saying it is the absolute best fighter on the market and admittedly it does have flaws, but it is a quality fighter imo and apparently lots of reviewer's opinions as well.

Defense train? I thought it was a funny move by Sega. Saying the game won't sell has nothing to do with it, they should have brought it out earlier, but now it'll just get lost. It's a shame, because a good Sega developed game is so rare these days and needs all the sales it can get.chespace said:

Hahaha, fucking master ninja is here to throw in a :lol
The DOA series has always been more about graphics over competitive gameplay so my opinion of the franchise is that it's a second-rate fighting series.
My particular beef with DOA4 has more to do with just how crummy the online experience is over Live, while admittedly the gameplay is improved in subtle ways over previous DOAs.
Those of you who have never tried playing it online need not reply.
Oh, and life at MS is just fine, thanks. It's nice to be able to come to TGS and not have to live for 3 days in Makuhari and scramble to write up impressions after an appointment, etc. It was nice to hang out with Jane, Mark, Ryan and the whole crew though!
Playing online is all about the distance and your connection speed.
but then again, it could be DOA4 shitty netcode, we will know soon enough with VF5.
and chespace, sorry if i sounded hostile to you, didn't really mean to offend you or something.
btw man, tell Turn 10 to give their fans some new tracks, the wait is killing them.

chespace said:Ouch, definitely not helping the PS3 cause and that shit needs all the help it can get.
The irony is, PS3 has the only playable online fighting game in the history of fighting games -- right now.
SF3: Third Strike is perfectly playable online on the 360 with backwards compat.

Assuming you are playing people with "Green" connections, the online gameplay is fine. Just like Tekken 5DR, however, both games need to be played differently to compensate for lag. I expect VF5 to be no different in this respect. DOA4 is the only DOA game I will defend as being good because it is actually tournament worthy, DOA3, for example, was pretty busted.chespace said:

you and Luke are lucky bastards
Now, I know you have a strong desire to play online with me, but a REAL FPS comes out in just a few days.
So is Guilty Gear, but the biggest problem plaguing those is the d-pad. That should be a marketing bulletpoint on the box for the arcade stickvag 2.0 said:

I haven't played DOA4 online for well over a year now so I'm not sure if they patched the netcode or what. But I did play it pretty regularly for the first couple months of its release because I was jonesing that hard for an online fighting game.
If the game is virtually lag free now, then I'll pop my copy back in after I get back to Seattle.
Nonetheless, I've been playing Tekken 5 and have been very impressed with how lag free it is -- even over my wifi PS3 connection. :lol

DOA4 has been patched, but honestly I think what helped the most is that people with shit connections stopped trying to play it online a year ago.chespace said:If the game is virtually lag free now, then I'll pop my copy back in after I get back to Seattle.

PS3 sales of VF5 were poor way before anyone knew the 360 version would have online.Grayman said:
News that VF5 360 would be online came out about 4 months after the PS3 version was already out.

LIES! I went back to it tonight and had a blast, its not the best fighting game ever made but it is quite fun and PLAYABLE online if you stick to your region and don't have cable modem speeds from 3 years ago.chespace said:
Too many haters.
The problem was rarely related to cable modem speed or distance from your opponent. I used to play a poster here (Gunstar?) who lives on the east coast, and it was basically lag free. The main issue was some routers caused all kinds of problems with the game and most of the people using them were uanware. I had this problem with DOA 3 and as soon as i replaced my router it ran flawlessly. The other odd thing is every other game ran perfectly fine. Its just something thats in the DOA netcode that fucks up certain routers.
