Would you believe I completely forgot this was coming out today?
I haven't played it yet, but I knew from the beginning that it didn't really deserve all that hate, which is why I simply kept my pre-order. The two missing stages are a disappointment, but it doesn't break the game in the slightest. Neither does the lack of the Soft Engine or the PS4 particle effects. It's really in between the X360/PS3 and XBO/PS4 versions in terms of features, but visually probably above all of them (despite the missing PS4 effects & soft engine). The online was announced to be implemented later, which I have no problem with at all. I'm happy they ported it to PC at all, and as long as it doesn't have random crashes, freezes, weird framerate drops and so on, I consider it a good port.I had to make excuses on Twitter. The game look really awesome, AA is wonderfully working and I have no problems running it. The difference between Xbox360 and PC is enormous. Still it's shame we have no online :/
Even so, I think it's time for some serious re-evaluation, the portage is far from being abyssal, and did not deserved so much hate.
(well now, brace yourself, MODs are coming... haha)
I did not canceled my pre-order, a DOA on PC, even if it was shit, would still be worth buying for the effort.I haven't played it yet, but I knew from the beginning that it didn't really deserve all that hate, which is why I simply kept my pre-order.

The announcement on TN's facebook page is a bit sad.
So much enthusiasm.
No issues on my 360 Gamepad, 360 Controller, Modded arcade stick, keyboard, or qanba stick here.
What were you expecting? I think that any different outcome was possible. The fact that they didn't answer to the critics to the game doesn't mean that they are blind. Be sure that under this announcement people will be already commenting with rage posts (I didn't check but I'm sure), so to show more enthusiasm would have only made worse the thing..
This is what I was worried about. I have an i5 that is pretty old with a GTX 770. I guess I will just have to test it out when I get home today and see how it plays.
A few screenshots from in game. No edits. Keep in mind that these are pulled from a 4k resolution that's downsampled in realtime to 1080 while playing. Hence, any blurriness you see on text or icons isn't visible when playing. Third shot shows the effects. I plan to start

In its defense the PS4 backgrounds don't look any better. DOA5 has never excelled at environmental textures.Yikes, that first Hitomi shot. Background looks like a PS2 game running in PCSX2
Wow, really?lol my game crashed and I lost all my dataaaaaaaaaaa D:
