Dead or Alive 5 Plus |OT| ( + )( + )

I let him win TWICE with no fighting and he still actively avoids me. Shit is hilarious.

Edit: He's a member of FreeStepDodge as well. So much for the pros wanting easy wins, eh?
So he doesn't want to fight scrubs who don't fight back, and doesn't want to fight opponents who might beat him. How he got that S-rank I have no clue, since I guess he spends more time in menus than in fights.

Don't do that, by the way. Costume whores are supremely annoying.

Maybe he wants to play. :p

I said that as well but even in the menus he won't even go into a round to where I'll just randomly punch to make him think I'm playing so I can get these ranked matches out of the way to where I can focus on simple match.

But no, as soon as he sees who it is he bails.

I want to see if there's any way for us to get matched together.

My connection is a 5, so only search for other 5's in the same region, and set platform to same. Maybe we'll finally run into each other :p

Doing that in ranked match. Watch it take 10 mins and not find either of us.

Just beat an E-rank Tina with Scrubyane's PPP-PPP-PPP-PPP---PPP-PPP--PPP after throwing the first two rounds. *yawn* At least seal the deal before I do it for you.

And just played (Only1RayRay). An S-rank. Yay matchmaking.

I am thinking that the "region" thing is the region your account or your game comes from and not your Vita's or your IP's region. Playing in Japan is miserably laggy.. Usually it's just about perfect.

Well both mine are American. Same for Leona. Can't find either of us. The matchmaking sucks.

Yep, filters suck. Switched back to any any any any and threw at least five matches now but still took forever to find said matches.
Yeah, I keep it on any at all times. Can't choose to be picky with this (seemingly) small of a community.

Haven't had any more freezes though.

All I got for the Vernal Equinox was this stupid tag
The new swimsuits are on PSN now. I only see them in a bundle with the gravure videos for $17 though.

Yup- bought. #partoftheproblem

485 MB content download...those must be some big movies.

I didn't see this DLC on XBL earlier today.

New swimsuits will only be available until May 15th. I'm guessing they'll be PSN exclusive as well?

Proudly debt free. If you need a couple bucks, just ask.
Wtf I don't want to pay for those gravure videos I already watched them on YouTube last month

Oh, hi there Lyte.

:lol Hangs in loading. God this game...
 
I'm kinda confused.

Are the costumes for the 4.16 set new costumes or are they a set from old stuff at a discount price ?

Is there a place where i can view the costumes properly ? ( official site is not that great )

New costumes with videos, the website is the best place to know the DLC costumes as far as I know.
 
I feel like I run into the same four or five people every day. For anyone watching, don't be offended if I decline fighting your Lisa/Ryu/Tina for the 500th time.

You don't actually have to have DOA5+ on Vita to get "cross good" sharing do you? If I wanted to download the costumes that were just uploaded, I could buy i on the Vita store and download on the ps3 right?

Yeah, it puts both versions of the content in your DL list. That's how cross-buy works.

I read that with this particular DLC pack, you do. If you buy the DLC from a Vita, it's cross-buy. If you buy this pack from a PS3, it's cheaper, but not compatible with the Vita version.

And that is incredibly stupid if true.

Oh, hi there Lyte.

:lol Hangs in loading. God this game...

That was you? Yeah, I I LOL'd. Found one person to play after you, then gave up after just sitting there and played SFxTK instead.

Why the hell isn't Team Ninja doing something -ANYTHING- about this problem?

Yeah, that was me. I got in about 10 or so matches (by throwing them) today toward my 250 ranked. Saw you pop up and I'm like "well, damn, I gotta play Lyte now."

... "Fuck this."

*quit and restart*

It seems that pops up rarely. The matchmaking is more the issue since it takes a good 2-5 minutes to find a match when Ranked on PS3 is hopping.

I bought the pack on my vita and tried to re download on my ps3 but it was showing up as vita only content and wouldn't install on my ps3

I read that something weird is going on right now with this content and that nobody has gotten it to work on PS3 yet, outside of Japan.

:lol This "Elgar-1" or whatever dude keeps actively avoiding me despite my negative W/L and him being an A rank.

I'm not going to fight you dude, and you keep running into me, might as well play me win GP and raise my matches played in ranked instead of wasting my time with you continuously searching.

But you can't buy this pack from a PS3 right?

I mean you can buy the vita download from the PS3, but there's no PS3 pack. So if you buy the vita one from the PS3, you can use it on the PS3?

I managed to beat Arcade and Time Trial on Legend w/o continuing by just playing my best. Didn't take too long, just a couple trips to the John.

I keep reading you guys about fights you have online and I'd like to join the party.

However, I'm really subpar at this game. Should I expect to be destroyed if I play against any of you? :)

So long as you stay above... 45%(?) health you'll regain your health back to 100% per win. The problem is the input reading AI and having to combo.

Are you Sengoku lol? Had enough cheap wins lately. Thought you are one of them, but you are alive at least haha.

I wouldn't be able to tell you about anyone else unfortunately (the immaculate matchmaking ensures I get paired with the same 3 people every day), but I'm terrible at defense. Anyone with a modicum of timing would destroy me :p

It looks like the problem is that the pack exists, but only the Vita pack right now. I would like to know if they're going to put the PS3 pack up, since they keep the packs as separate purchase items for the systems (hence there being double of everything else).

I nearly bought it but saw it was only the Vita pack that was up, and I don't have the Vita version of the game (yet, still contemplating it).

Not that name, but close yeah. I was like "WTF dude, why are you avoiding me? I'm negative W/L! You can beat me!"

As it is I'm 205 to 260 matches played. I did some simple matches that threw my ranked count off. So I gotta throw another 45-50 matches to get Lisa's Legendary outfit and then I'm going to actually fight in simple matches where you can rematch people instead of having to deal with the assy matchmaking for one set.

Yea rank matchmaking here is total garbage. But I can't see a reason to play ordinary modes. Game is pretty weak (prefer VF5 final showdown) so at least exp farming is a bit satisfying. You like Lisa swimsuit? Tina's better :p

I honestly don't like any of the non-DLC swimsuits. Too tacky. I'm just getting them this way for the costume trophy.

As it is I just got +560 GP from a B- rank "McBurley" Jann Lee as a Mirror. :lol Dude came back after I won the first two rounds and I just maneuvered around weirdly to hit him for the win.

Hahahaha, one our connections crapped out and Bayman is just circling Putin's Christie for the time to end.

I hope you win these next two rounds otherwise I'mma gonna have to disconnect.

Think I found my secondary: Bayman. Hit hit, they try to parry, THROW. Every time. For big damage. HNNNG.

My PS3 crashed after network error message. Horrible lag before that. Why you gave up in previous matches? Could have easily won with Bass and Kokoro.

I didn't want to take your A- rank. Plus I think lag gave me those wins.

I need to incorporate throws into my Hitomi game. Seems a good damage modifier but her throws seem pretty short reach to where they're impractical in matches. Need to to test them after I get these last 7-8 ranked matches out of the way in simple matches.
