Virtua Fighter 5 System update feat. Replay Save++

Re: Virtua Fighter 5 System update feat. Replay Sa

im delighted with this update...thanks sega for rewarding your loyal fans, they've clearly listened to feedback.

i hope they continue to patch the game tho...that interview on major nelson's website suggested otherwise.

for a future patch i'd love to see the following:

1. item/cash rewards in ranked online games

2. auto uploading to server of rank-up/down matches....i say this specifically as it would seem possible for sega to implement this easily in a patch. the current system already auo loads arcade runs to the score tables should be fairly simple to link this into the ranked vs tables and display the replay..

3. being able to see your friends match stats as they play on the dashboard - eg. Player 1 - Online - playing Virtua Fighter 5 - Online match Lion vs Vanessa 3-2. or perhaps even win streaks?

again this one would be easy to implement in a patch.

4. Stop player invites into games from timing out too quickly.

5. display connection speed as a ping value as well as the symbol

6. allow regional filtering in the custom match menu when finding games...too many times i get thrown into laggy cross atlantic matches when more local player are available to play.

I second that one - i would love to be able to create Player Matches where, in addition to the normal Stage, Round Count, Time Limit and Private Match Y/N there was an additional option "Best out of" defaulting to 1 and incrementable at will.

I would like to report that, in addition to the repertoried changes brought on with the update, the instant replay fuction at the end of each round has been significantly altered (models dissapear).

 

PS 3 player here, wondering a few things:

1) No chance the PS3 can play online?

2) PS3 version get updated as well?

Many thanks all.

 

Re: Virtua Fighter 5 System update feat. Replay Sa

no to both answers.

What I really like about this update is that it's Xbox 360 only for the moment.

The Dreamcast laughs at PS3 from the grave

Ehrm...

 

Re: Virtua Fighter 5 System update feat. Replay Sa

ok,

thanx to all that posted here..

yes, it turned out i had 2 different accounts,
and one wasn't available on xbox live, so i had
to create another account...and use that..

[rest of the post is general impressions of
xbox live]
-----------------------------------------------
well, i went to a friends house, and used their
internet account, and signed up for 1 month (although
now looking at it, they want to charge a monthly fee..
no thanks)...

anyways, i was expecting a decent time on it..
----------------------------------------------
1 i was able to connect 75% of the time (i'm in
the east coast US)..

2 played in the evening for about 6 hours straight
(probably would have gone longer, if i didn't feel
like passing out)..of course it was all non ranked
matches

3 i don't have a mic, or webcam, so i didn't really
hear/see anything bad

4 EVERY SINGLE AKIRA blew me away....i play sarah/pai,
and was able to win about 50% of the matches, i had a
tough time with all the new characters brad/goh/etc..
so so time with the grapplers, not too bad against
other sarah/pai....never saw aoi, not even once..a lot
of other characters didn't seem to show up either..

5 i noticed that there were a lot of helpful players,
and got messages mentioning VFDC etc...

6 NOT ONCE DID I NOTICE ANY LAG WHATSOVER in any match,
of course, i'm sure there was...but since i'm not that
great of a player (been playing sarah/pai since vf1,
skipped vf3/vf4)...maybe i'm not good enough to notice..

i did get some reversals with pai, and most of the throws
with sarah...but then again, i'm using the terrible xbox
360 pad...will be getting a joystick soon..


OVERALL
-------
i don't think i will get an internet account,
because 1) i will never leave my place again,
since there are always players available, i even
snuck in a few games right before leaving to work
(i was late anyways)...... 2) are there really
that many new GOOD players playing VF, i remember
being the only person i knew that played vf2, how
things have changed.. 3) i will probably have
hand cramps, and bleary eyes that will get worse
4) believe it or not, out of the 50-60 matches i
played, only 2 players actually played cheap (using
the same combo, cheap tactics, or low punches only)..

GREAT job SEGA, and GREAT job Microsoft..yeah they're
not perfect, but for the casual player, its a great
bonus...(now if only there were people playing sega
rally revo, and virtua tennis 3..)

later

Re: Virtua Fighter 5 System update feat. Replay Sa

Sorry if anyone objects to me reviving a pretty much dead topic, but I haven't been able to download the patch yet as my xbox died before I got a chance but I should be getting it back from MS soon.

Anyway, was just wondering if anyone could post a full list of what costumes each character can swap. I did search for a list but found nothing so sorry if one's already been posted. But if one has been posted can someone paste the URL or something?
