Thanks buds.
You don't need to counter to win.

Do command training for the characters that you have trouble reading and you will get a much better idea if they are using highs or mids. If you didn't already know, look at the P and K icons and you will notice an arrow pointing high, mid or low.
I can not do this stupid "expert hold Mila's mid-kick" of Lei Fangs and some of the later missions as well. Like doing an Inzuna Drop. I've been playing the series since day one and have NEVER been able to pull that off.
I guess it just means I should go home and be a family man.

I want these titles but they have to put them behind stupid hard restrictions. :/
Ah...so you tick throw them. Wow, that's pretty damn smart.
I seem to do well with Ayane online now after doing some command training but when I use Kasumi I get done in unless its tag.

Yes, it was DOA4 that had those lobbies, unfortunately it is not in DOA5. There are online lobbies for 16 players but it's just static when you first enter with a list of names of people in the room. You come in as a spectator and have the option to watch or get in line to fight. You can exit out into the lobby if you have to go afk. There is also a text chat window.
Got it, thanks. Got the rest of Hitomi's/Lei's.

With the Izuna drop you can simply do 360s with the stick whilst mashing the combo button, works everytime on DOA4, I am guessing they probs didn't change it in 5.
I remember reading here before the drop rate is only something like 30% even if you win.
No continues! Doesn't need to be the top time.

Okay I bought it. Should arrive on friday. If anyone wants to fight a beginner....add me
Dear gaf,
I apologize. I was wrong about the netcode in DoA5. I just played a long set with Master Thespian and it was very playable. It wasn't the best, but it was free of the random hiccups we were experiencing all day yesterday.
The netcode is playable. It is not amazing, but it is playable.
It is not like KoF13.
I was wrong.
Happy to be wrong,
Skilletor

So I'm still right that its somewhere between mvc3 and umvc3.
Oh ffs.

You weren't wrong because that shit was terrible yesterday and it improved today. Glad we gave it another shot. Now I must resist the temptation to play with an easier character.
Hmm, yeah. I'd say it's closer to UMvC3, though. Thespian and I have a 3 bar connection and it was decent. Yesterday 3 bars was terrible. It was slow, it would randomly pause, and there was a lot of input delay. 5 bars is pretty great, but you really have to fish for those.
Also, certain stages run better than others for us. Some caused slowdown, others ran smooth. Going to try and figure out which ones so we can create a random list.

How difficult is it to unlock every costume?
It's a pain in the ass. The skimpy ones you unlock through legendary time attack, survival, etc depending on who it is. And the fact that you can only get it when you don't use a continue is just bullshit honestly.

Everything but the on disc "bikinis" (they can barely even be called that) is really easy.
Awwww, Skilletor has a heart!

This is pretty much what I do now. Holds from what I've seen is pretty much lucky guessing due to how fast the attacks in this game are. Coupled with them working only half the time I'd rather not get frustrated and try to focus on other things like not pressing buttons while blocking which I can't help doing right now.
I didn't recognize my Jun bro without the avatar. When we going to play Tekken?
Hey man let's get on it right now! I'm probably off since I haven't touched it in awhile but don't care!

Can't save a simple match replay which sucks and I cant upload my fights to youtube or facebook. That should be mandatory for all fighters this day and age.
Love the rest of the game though

I don't think mashing out the drop works now since they tweaked timing.

Time to pay it forward: turn off Throwdowns. The next time someone brings this up, it will be your responsibility to inform them.

If you got it on PS3, you can hit me up; Shadybiz. I will probably have some time this weekend. I'm about as casual a player as they get.
Turning off throwdowns doesn't completely stop it. I got freezes this morning trying to find lobbies in player matches.

Did a couple of ranked matches.
Think I'm settling on Mila as my main.

So i haven't had a chance to play it much since I got it last night, but I've been messing around with arcade mode trying to familiarize myself with playing the game...I'm noticing a bit of a big nuisance with the game so far.
I'm playing on the PS3 version, and occasionally in the middle of the fight...frames will just stop. The game literally freezes for like maybe 0.5-2 seconds at a time every so often. This is really annoying in a game so timing based. Has anyone else experienced anything like this??
Oh...this sounds like it might be it

I heard you have to turn off the throwdown system while playing offline
