Not true at all. I've had some great matches in LR, of course it depends on each players connection. Could LR be better? Yeah. Is it dogshit? Not in my experience.

Slightly off-topic, but seeing R. Mika pulling off wrestling moves made me fall in love with Tina again.
Man, I wish the PC version of this game was given more love from KT. I'd be all over it like Rocket League.

At all? Come on, man.
It's bad. How about that? It's bad and it's fucking garbage compared to the competition. But I guess congrats to you for having some OK matches???
Well I went back to the early impressions from the OT to make sure I wasn't crazy. Seems like I am not the only person who thinks it is better than it was before. Maybe I am too used to vanilla DOA5, but LR feels a lot better than me. No need be an ass in your posts though, not sure if it is intentional or not.
I've had plenty of smooth matches playing online. I've had laggy ones too, but I wouldn't call the online bad. Like Hubb said it really depends on who you're playing with.

i'll get out of the woods and say that the online of LR is far from being dogshit.
Still some problem but smooth most of the time. never had to drop combos or feel like the game doesn't perform as expected. it's much better than before ..no doubt about that
*get back in the woods in hiding*

Strangely, I'd say so for 360/PS3, but DOA5 was the same for me on PS4 with both methods.
Yep, always go wired!!!wired is objectively better regardless of the application though

This is IT
DOA5 then DOA5 ultimate then DOA5 Last round
^^^you can't get a more definitive version than that.They have already released the same game with plenty of tweaks twice..if you're waiting at this point , then there , like no point to get the game at all.
The only exception is USF4 , but the circumstances are way different for this franchise.

The shitstorm that would ensue by the fans isn't worth it. It would really damage the relation with the fans if TN/Tecmo released a "definitive edition" now, especially after 4 retail versions of the same game and 2 very expensive season passes.
And if you want to get into DOA then just do it. Learn a few characters and THEN decide if you want to spend money on DLC. There is a free version which include 4 good characters, i suggest you start there

This.
I keep telling as many people I know to download DOA5. There's no harm in trying it, since it's FREE.

This time it's over, even with the new character next year.
To be fair, there's a lot of content in the base game already (on sale on EU PSN right now for pretty cheap or elsewhere).

LOL, nobody gives a shit about fans. TN is already taking advantage of them with every piece of cheap-looking DLC they release.
They're not gonna do it because of all the money they'd be giving away. Bundling huhdreds of dollars of content into a $60 package makes zero sense. They could sell it for $100 and it wouldn't make sense. The game is on the same level as Rock Band in that way. Just waaaaaay too much content to try and sell it all in a single package.

End of Summer Jam 9 for those interested http://www.twitch.tv/teamsp00ky Some really good matches

Damn, that's a real shame. Plans for purchasing a PS4 got pushed back due to bigger financial issues, and I didn't want to get stuck with the lousy unoptimized PC version (unless a "definitive" version finally gave us all its missing features). It's starting to sound like I'll just have to sit this one out.
Well I don't consider all the missing DLC features, but you could just play the F2P version on the PS3 if you are in need of something to do. I'm playing the F2P version on PS4 and I've only bought 1 character for it so far.

By missing features, I'm referring to the omission of select stages, Soft Engine, tearaway clothing, and of course online play. A "definitive" version with those added back in for PC would be what I'm looking for (I would gladly spend money for costumes if each one didn't cost more than the game itself). But if it's too much for Koei Tecmo to handle, then I guess I'll just stick with giving the F2P version a shot.
Didn't realize you were talking about the PC version, thought you meant the PS4 for the definite version. I still don't think they are going to do anything much more than they have to the PC version. They'll take whatever money they can get from it, and we can only hope DOA6 has a better PC showing.

New update out for the PC version. Sounds like bare minimum to get it to version 1.04.

It's something at least.

I don't even know why I put up with the online. 33 fights and only 4 wins and each of those 4 was blind stinking luck or some poor sap in similar shoes feeling my hateful vengeance >.>
Been trying to learn Mila and the only thing I've been learning is that she's slow and terrible. Everyone can easily get a free punch in whenever they want but the moment I try I get immediately punished, comboed and totally destroyed -_-

I haven't played DOA5 in a long time so I am really rusty. I wouldn't mind having a regular sparring partner, what time do you normally play? And don't worry, I was never good at the game.
Nyotengu is, without a doubt, my worst match up. I kinda have a vague idea of the other characters when I play against them but even when the player isn't that great, or doing much, I just can't do a thing against Nyotengu lol It's just total randomness and that ranged move that I can't block or dodge
I kinda play at random times but generally in the evening (PST time zone if that's important)

Yeah, I'm on the East coast. I play around 7-10 ET during the week and the weekends are pretty much any time I'm not doing anything. Not sure if 7-10 falls around the time you play, it really depends how tired I am. Sometimes I stay up till 11-11:30, sometimes I get home from work a little early.
I think that should line up pretty well. I play on PS4, id is MrUnfortunate
I'll be on a little later and I'll add you

We will rematch some time and I will make sure to pull it off
I'm elusive so we'll see.We will rematch some time and I will make sure to pull it off
Got caught up doing somethings, but I just sent the friend request.
no prob, wasn't able to play or anything anyway lol
All good, I figured that is what happened, hopefully you got my message about me going to bed. I think a lot of it was the lag (not way to know how bad it was on your end), but you'll get it sooner than later. There was a lot you can punish me for, it is just hard to tell you when/how when I have to type it over a PSN message >< .
The biggest thing is catching my low punch attack that ducks under your punches. Once you see the combos I do over and over you'll have a better idea how to shut me down. I'm down to play again, specially if you can move it a little closer to the router.
Was the lag better for you when I hosted or when you did? It was still pretty bad when I did, but it felt a little better for me. Not sure if that translated over to you or not, or if it just helped me combo better.
the first round was definitely better but after that it kinda just went back to how it was when I hosted. That aside, I have trouble against every character in this game because they all do low/mid attacks and they do them quickly and without any real breaks in between. Managed to get back up and running a while after our matches last night and jumped into practice and found one of mila's kicks is kind of safe to use, as well as a couple things that can kind of throw Marie off but they aren't safe, seem fairly predictable and just leads straight into her usual high attacks.

Legend, add me. It might be badly laggy, and if it is, we can pack it up, but I'd be interesting in giving you some games. (PSN: Azuardo)
