I just played a match earlier today on XBL. I'll not mark their name but it was one of those FPS type names... Anyway, My kids were ready for lunch just as the match started. Person was mashing Jacky. Hp combo reversed, knee, low kick, rising low kick, i was just trying to speed it up and they were mashing and easy to read.

Later i check my profile rep and see i got marred on Unsporting. Even though this is for team killing or racing backwards on a track, i was wondering if i should be concerned about this as far as XBL is concerned... am i ruined?

Also is it really all that unsporting? Later i played my son and he said i was spamming reversals. I explained to him that it's difficult to do because of timing and direction, also knowing the opponents moves. Needless to say he stomped me with Eileen.

So i guess i'm just looking for opinions and things like that.

All forms of reverse nikatu are unsporting.

But yea. I say do whatever you want to win. But don't get mad if you can't win and the stuff you do stops working. That's when it's time to do something else.

Lol relax, one bad rep is going to have exactly zero effect on your gaming experience. 100 bad reps would also have no effect. You must not play online much if this is the first time it's happened to you - everyone gets them from time to time for no apparent reason. Don't worry about it.

And no it's not unsporting to use lots of reversals - it's awesome.

ok, thanks. No, i haven't been on XBL very long, since the first week of Feb. I didn't know if it would lessen my ability to play other people or not. I feel better about that now. Also, Reversals are only awesome when they actually work. I got a few notes from a player once about how i'd be really good if i actually blocked. *sigh*

Not reverse nikatu, reversal reversal, like "Catch".

Oh. That's just plain cheating.

If u know what the opponent is going to do, then i don't see whats wrong with using a reversal ^_^

LOL....Don't worry pal, this isn't DOA4 - This is VF5 Online. Nothing wrong with spamming reversals when a guy wants to be THAT predictable (take it from a guy who ALSO reverses a lot). Just remember to use other moves and a little defense :P Damn...I miss VF -_-

Damn you Aoi players and your yin yang dang.

It's funny, I did get DOA4, played very little of it. Just doesn't compare to VF imo. Took it back to get a second controller so my son and i could play together.
