When you start playing offline you'll get it, this game is so reactionary under lag it's stupid

Good connections and good people make an online experience awesome. I always have fun in lobbies and with friends.

*shakes head*

I think they're mainly complaining about the Playstation version. I mainly get good matches on xbox live but the PSN was just horrible.

Online is horrible. Holds never come out on time.

my favorite thing is dropping bnbs

Doesn't matter how good/bad your connection is. You're never really playing the way that you want to play online. You'll see what people mean once that you start playing offline somewhere if that's your motive one day.

Online is terrible. Can't even do half the shit i can do with Jacky because of the terrible netcode.

If you have played regular extended sets offline, you'll immediately see why alot of people chastise online. It's basically impossible to play an online match like an offline match. Nothing ever works like it should and many elements of the gameplay *coughspunishmentcoughs* get majorly fucked up.

yeah I can definitely see your points on the lag ruining things. I've occasionally played with my brother offline and it's definitely a lot smoother. but still, I mean it's online it won't be perfect obviously. Any game is more fun offline when you're with people. but I honestly still have enjoyed DOA regardless of the lag. It's not on par with offline but it doesn't suck either.

That's the thing though, you can only play DOA online "Just for fun", because that's all it's good for. You can't legitimately practice anything because the input timings become wonky. Trust me, on a 5ms or less monitor, there's a major difference between online & offline play.

^yup

If you play Tekken or SC online, DOA's lag is unaccaptible. It's like going from a Ferarri to a broke down Honda
