that's even worse.

every doa4 costume except the three waitress costumes would have been fine. my favorite was the black top with with the phoenix design. don't understand why they dropped the phoenix thing. her clothes now look completely generic. the explorer and circus costumes are just horrible.

Pach now out on PS3. Still waiting 360 since MS are slow.

http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2012/oct/15/dead-or-alive-5-online-function-improvement-patch-now-available-playstation-3-xbox-360-patch-still-undergoing-certification/

1. Fixed bug where skipping a command then clearing would halt progress during La Mariposa’s and Tina’s command training.
2. Adjusted the AI’s excessively fast reactions to player attacks on hard difficulty.
3. Power Blow settings carry over when resetting position in training mode.
4. Position reset can now be performed by pressing SELECT + R2 at the same time.
5. Titles can now removed at the Mission title set screen with the △ button.
6. Ayane’s Tenryukyaku~back turn (→→KK←), Kikkaryukyaku~back turn (Back stance PP→KK←) are changed from +7 on guard to +1.
7. Tina’s down throw (face up & towards legs, face down & towards head) at completion is changed from +5 to ±0.


8. Changed the hit reaction to certain attacks when hitting a downed opponent.
9. Voice language settings now save.
10. Fixed bug where the game would not advance when searching for an online opponent then canceling.
11. Improved the game screen freezing after the start of a match when playing Versus, Arcade or Training mode with challenges on. (May still occur depending on the connection environment)
12. Fixed bug where the wrong lobby may be joined when selecting a lobby from the lobby match search.
13. Fixed bug where sidestep and button settings would reset during online versus.
14. When accepting a challenge during the final stage of arcade mode, then returning to offline play after the match, the final stage no longer repeats without a mode clear, nor does the game freeze.
15. When canceling a search for an opponent, the cancel will go through, unless an error occurs.
16. Your opponent’s cursor is no longer displayed in the menu after a rank match, simple match, or challenge match.

19. Opponent’s account name and connection speed are now displayed next to the challenge icon.
20 Lobby match search results now are sorted in order of connection speed.
21. During an online match, input delay and laggy character movement due your connection with the opponent is less likely to occur. (Still may occur depending on the connection status between players)
22. Because displaying skill info and move lists during online versus can cause a drop in connection quality, they are now set to always off.
23. Ranked matches can no longer be set to 1 round.

It's good to see that a patch for the game is released.

I really hope that the netcode will be better than it was before from all I've heard about it. I'll still get a chance to pick this game up one of these days, but more likely for my birthday alongside of NG3: Razor's Edge, New SMBU, and my Wii U.

Loving Mila, Lei Fang, and Ryu DLC costumes. Still nothing sexy for Rig

[Mai~Crimsonheart]

Omg xD, the opera singer in a cat suit ... LMFAO !

[TheDuskwalker]

Good lord Team Ninja are over pricing the fuck out of there costumes. 5$ for 4 or 13$ for 12.....

http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2012/oct/16/dead-or-alive-5-round-2-costume-pack-officially-released-xbox-360-and-playstation-3-today/

Also got to love how they put Lisa in all packs when she's the least popular female and Team Ninja themself don't even like her. I see what you're doing there TN....

Lame they didn't give a free DLC costume for every character, but this is what I figured they were doing. Give away a free set that conviently doesn't include costumes for the most popular characters to look good, then sell the rest.

[Running Wild]

I just tested out the netcode today, it's actually pretty good now.



Hnnng... too bad it's fake.

I use Lisa quite a lot right now since I can't stand Hitomi in doa5. I think they did a great job around the character thanks to the more realistc graphics and her new lisa costumes. Not really a fan of her Mariposa version, which still feels out of place in my opinion.

her 3 new costumes are bad in any possible way, the golden dress sucks, one is recycled from lei fang and catsuit is even worse than the one she had in doa4.

Exactly my thoughts about the Julia/Jaycee stuff they did. I can't stand the luchadora thingie on her.

Wasn't knocking Lisa or anything, just saying she's the least popular of the females and TN themself doesn't even like her (there "From Staff" comment about her in CE artbook was kind of funny because of it, and of course what happens to her in story mode, which wasn't so funny....). So it's funny they're giving her a costume in all packs since it's so blatant in what they're doing.

They know most people wouldn't pay for her costumes, so they're using her as a spot filler to add additional costumes to packs to raise price, while keeping characters people want costumes for (like Ayane and Hayate) held back, and to keep from releasing multiple costumes for more popular at once (like Kasumi, Hitomi, and Ryu) in a set. This way they can stretch things out and release overall more overpriced packs while forcing people to buy costumes they made for a character they don't want (and so TN can actually make money off of unpopular characters) to get the ones they actually wanted. Also this keeps fan demand high because people will want a new costume for Ayane since she didn't get one or a free one, or more costumes for Kasumi since she only got 1 and no free one, which goes back to why none of the most popular characters got a free one. You'll notice there is 1 or 2 popular characters in each pack, 1 or 2 middle ground characters, and then a unpopular one. A dick move, but very smart.

come to think of it they are both scientists, too. it's quite common to have a thing about lucha libre after years of researches.

yeah, you are probably right and looking at people buying collector's and preorder dlc on ebay for insane prices, they probably did the smartest move.

I think the first dlc too was not supposed to be free, but considering the buggish release of the game they tried to keep quiet the fans. now that the game have been patch, it's already time to pay

Pretty much. Well that and the complaints about lack of costumes for the VF characters. Give first 2 four character costume packs for free to keep fans happy and around for another week until patch fix is out, then sell that paid DLC  + VF5 C3 pack for free to make disappointed VF fans happy. Now they can overprice costumes and justify it with "well we also gave away free DLC, plus it's not liked we disk locked the DLC this time...." and it's working. Smart.

Also I'm one of them douches that over charges for DLC on ebay. I am deliberatly going overboard on my DOA5 code prices just to see how ridiculous some people are after TTT2. I got 15$ for my damn TTT2 code and that was confirmed free. Also got 20$ for a Lollipop Chainsaw Ash costume.....my biding price for that was freaking 5$. Oh well, if they got that much money to throw around, no skin off my back.

[V-Slasher]

yeah probably old model with ayane's head from doa5.

dlc to be sold 400mp each... that's like 100 mp each since every pack has 4 costumes...meh
