Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate

[Force_of_Nature]

Hi Again DOAers! I have another questioon. :( Then I'm gonna get this game. Lol.

People say the netcode is bad/was, is there still problems with lag or did they fix it? (PS3)

Also, isnt there supposed to be a patch today?

My final question(s) then I shall be getting it. :)
Thank you!

In all honesty, the netcode is perfectly fine if you play people in 4 or 5 bars. Obviously 1 or 2 bars should be avoided, and it's only the 3 bar matches that can be a little iffy. I can still play in 3 bars, but it won't exactly be representative of offline play at all. In other words, if you're mostly going to be playing people that are 4+, and aren't online douchebags, you'll be perfectly fine. Patch 1.03A just became available on PS3 (patches usually appear on Monday's or Tuesdays).

I can tell you as of now that your reservations on this game can be put to rest. No matter how you look at it, DOA5 is solid and is well worth the price of admission all things considered.

What I do find ironic is people asking for long combos and guaranteed damage, now that it has been implemented in what honestly has been a viable competitive version of the game for over a decade, people are like "WTF?! That's too much damage off one guess!".

:(

People forget that for tag, those combos are only doing about 40-50% damage of the total life.

And that life regenerates if you tag them out.

Liking the changes to wake-up kicks making them lost out to attacks with more active frames. Gives the game more bit of a vortex game outside of force techs.
