How do I unlock Dural? I haven't been able to beat the bitch yet. Is that what I'll need to do?

even if I dont have the game, i bet it's the SELECT button like VF4 and VF4Evo, but mind you! I don't have the game, so i`m just guessing. Try pressing select or holding it at some point during the VICTORY POSE
I watched 2hours worth of videos today Im that gagging for it and the commentary had already done my head in after one video so thats going right off :lol I dont see the point in them same in Ridge Racer for me they get in the way. Still at least they arent as bad as the drone monkeys on Pro Evo, for that I wish I could use the nutty JPN commentary.....BEE STING

Damn Play-Asia, they had allocation for the stick left when i ordered a few days ago. My order status is preparing order, however there's only a check by the actual game itself and the status of the stick on the main page is 5-15 days wait 
. The order is set to ship on Feb 8th though. I"m sorta confused but thinking i'm in the wait for the stick category.

I'm in the same exact boat, my status has been preparing order for 2 days now. The thing is though, its already Feb 9th in HK.
Same guys, Ive sent them an email today as its jumped to 22nd Feb and it was instock next day when I ordered then jumped to preparing since the 7th then jumped to between 5-15days below it now 22nd Feb. The money is getting taken out as the cc is reserving it so even if I cancel I cannot go elsewhere. I had the option of getting one in the UK for next week at £20 more and I would have done it but PA said they where getting em in early
Has anybody got the Enterbrain black books by any chance for VF5? Just Id like to know if their any good for non JPN language readers, ie if the lists are their on the pages (as I dont care about the names next to them as long as their is command lists) or are they actually guides in boxes of loads of text of what they do. I know about the Brady one but I want something advanced also as I will spend years on this puppy

The VF5 Black Book is very useful even for a non-Japanese reader because it lists frame data for all the moves, which is important and useful info for any fighter. The Brady authors wanted to include this data in the American guide, but the "data" is technically owned by Enterbrain and they wanted too much money for it.
So, grab the Brady guide for a great introduction to the game, and pick up the Black Book if you want the numbers to take your game to the next level!

Wait for Srider to come back and answer that or go to VFDC and check their forums. I know they talk about it there
I opted for the HRAP last night because while the VF stick would suit most games, it isn't Capcom standard; the HRAP makes sense because it is Capcom standard and it also works for every game except Soulcalibur.
One thing I don't like about the game -- and this is my bias because I play the game almost every day in the arcades -- is that the AI on hard in Quest mode and in Arcade mode is still a joke and still seems to cheat a little bit. I'd rather CPU opponents go for optimal combos instead of crappy combos. I see 10th Dan Akiras in Quest mode do b,f+P+G, P, DLC and that's a combo that I've never seen anyone do in any arcades here, especially at the 10th Dan level. Same with combos off SDE... it's just SDE, DLC. WTF? Throw in some maximum damage combos for the CPU and it'll be more challenging. They really should've put those standard combos into the game IMO.

Welcome beautful toddler, Madison Elizabeth, to the horde!
Question for people. Does the Japanese version support 1080i natively? Jim has shown that only 720p is listed on the nA version of VF5. My TV doesn't do 720p, but it does 1080i. If someone knows or could check for me, I'd really appreciate this. Thanks in advance

i like that combo
i guess i need to read vfdc or a faq and find something optimally damaging. though the quest ai does seem much easier than it was in evo. my akira's at warrior with almost 200 wins and just a handful of losses, and i'm winning most fights pretty easily...iirc i was struggling quite a bit by this point in evo.

i think its because it runs on a Geforce 6800 (arcade board)
so even if its looking amazing , its just not meant to use the ps3 at its best.
Well , i have doa4 and this looks 3times better seriously...may i say doa 4 would run on my old geforce 4200? i dont think
This game looks phenomenal

My copy of the game should be here tomorrow....but I don't get my VFHG stick until next week. I don't understand why playasia hasn't shipped it yet. I ordered it in early December but it still says "Preparing".

It is a very pretty game, but I am still kinda disappointed in general to still be seeing some of the polygonal geometry on characters in a 2 player fighting game. Some of the round things on these characters are not so round. Still, the textures and effects are phenomenal.
Dr. Zoidberg said:
I totally understand what you mean. In some of these still shots, you can see limited polygonal stuff. When I look at screens like that Pai one above, I'm actually shocked.
But when the game is in motion, it's impossible to see polys sticking out or anything of the sort. When playing the game, everything looks pretty damn phenomenal. It's not only better looking than DOA, it's better looking than any fighter out there right now.
