I think the way they handle connections is extra jacked up. I put my PS4 on the router's DMZ last night and it was
still showing a moderate NAT. I also know that ranked matchmaking for me on PSN in DoA5U and LR on the PS3 and PS4 has always been completely broken. Lobbies work, games work, throwdowns kind of work (well not in LR D
but if I try to use matchmaking, it just tells me no one's available regardless of my filtering settings. Only game I've played that's anything like this.
I would say it looks like they put no time into the online functionality... but seeing all of the issues with the release, I wonder if they spent more than the absolute minimum on anything other than artists to create DLC outfits. I am legitimately terrified of the PC release now (but at least we can force things like AA and AF there).
The funny thing is... for the most part, the balance adjustments seem good (if minor). Just please stop nerfing Kokoro. ;_;
