It's confirmed that Version B Revision 1 does not contain any gameplay/balance changes.

I guess they're concentrating on VF5 Revolution or whatever. Anyone willing to take an educated guess as to when we'll see that hit Japanese arcades?

Hmm, considering that there won't be gameplay changes should put ps3 owners at ease. It is disconcerting however on a progress level with regards to the game's development. Let's see what Sega has in store for us (if anything) in the future.

I don't get why people are sooooo upset to hear there are no gameplay changes? Is there anything broken[1] so bad that it needs fixing? Maybe AM2 are content with the gameplay for the time being? If anything, I'm glad there are no gameplay changes yet! It means my ps3 port, which I've yet to even play, is still a valid version!

I hate how people keep alluding to VF5 Evo (or whatever). What's wrong with sinking your teeth into the game you have right now in front of you? Have you all completely exhausted all it has to offer and crave something new?

I say again: love the one you're with.


[1] apart from everything, haha, j/k

I'm actually relieved like Jerky and Myke have said. If there were gameplay changes I'd be a bit miffed about owning the PS3 version.

I think the current version that we have is already very balanced -- will post more about it tonight.

Just for clarification - I was only asking about a sentence that I quoted (PS3 changes - one in particular - moving your character to other people console - which is IMO impossible due to economical factor) - I do not think that VF5 is broken in term of balance - just from watching movies I can tell that I do not see any character really better then the others - I never played the game though.(considering EUR PS3 price that might not change any time soon )

I would much rather see people complaining or bitching about item update for PS3 version.

Exactly. I have been playing this nonstop since I got it and still feel clueless about it. I play eight or so characters and really am only comfortable with Lau (and to a lesser extent Jeff). I can win some with others, but mostly by doing the exact same things I did in Evo.

And yes, I would also be pissed if the game were changed for the 360 version. Let them add a new rainbow thong for Lion, a new afro or two for Jeff, but don't touch the gameplay for at least a year.

I am honestly shocked by the bitching I read on this site. The way SEGA is going, VF could someday get the Sonic treatment. Then the bitching would be justified. But VF5 is awesome. Stop whining and be happy you can play this game which is, to date, the best fighter ever.

Now ppl can play the PS3 Version and not have to worry about Japan being ahead in the VF scene even though they are but now we can play this at evo and not have to worry about Japan not having any disadvantage because our version is old..

VF5 is very balanced and any character can win it just takes work.
