Why aren't we getting paid to beta test this game? We've done it THREE times by now.

1: Pre launch tournaments- gave impressions.
2: DOA 5- Apparently sucked.
3: Now this patch for DOA 5.5... which apparently sucks too.

Well how I see it, it's rather a free patch or an entirely different game I have to shell out for an extra $40-60 for. I'd much rather beta test a game that gets a free patch with all the fixes later : P

I hate to say it, but I'm with Lopedo on this one. I'm thankful for the entertaining changes in the most recent patch, but this run around is extremely unprofessional and suggests the developers involved are novice.

I assure you there are more glitches they may be unaware of - but not all are important. For example, I dusted off my PS3 and purchased DOA5 for it last night to try the changes early, and while in training, I noticed my life bar was missing a chunk (suggesting training wasn't changed to account for the new life totals). I'm sure there are other subtle issues - some which may affect match outcome. I'm starting to wonder now if Player 1 and 2 have the same health pools even! Then again, as Lopedo suggested, why should we go home this evening and test this? I'm the consumer!

Hmmm.I don't know how I feel about this. It sucks that the Xbox 360 owners have to wait longer to get the patch. As far as the stagger escape being an issue It doesn't seem too big of a deal.If it is forgive my ignorance.

Um... I have a feeling there will be another glitch in 1.04 :confused:

Anyway is it pretty active on the PS3 side of things right now? Not sure if I should take my copy online or not, it's sort of a hassle to set everything up.

They can't AFFORD to make a different game because of the money they dumped into making and patching this one.

This really does piss me off, I was so looking forward to the patch and the changes in Helena, now I have to wait even longer for that and all the other changes, hopefully we get it sooner in Feb then later
Look at the upside, more time for them to give her some real buff's.
 
I don't think the problem is things can't be slow escaped. I feel it's the opposite I think the defending opponent somewhat slow escapes involuntarily. Or recovers too fast automatically I think that's the mistake. Ex. I try to do a sit down stun in practice with stagger recovery off, and I still have to hurry my CB. Idk for sure though just contributing to the conversation. Even so slow escape in its entirety seems funny atm. I think they tried to give auto slow escape by a small margin to the game itself. Ofcourse Im new so plz correct me if Im wrong as I really want to learn about the inner workings of this game.

I've noticed that online. Not sure if that's the actual issue or if it's just online play being online play.

If you're expecting additional buffs you're setting yourself up for disappointment... I don't think it's as simple as "Oh let's make this move X frames faster" or "Let's change this stun..." The smallest thing can impact every combo and create possibly overpowered ones, it requires a lot of testing. Nerfs are much easier to implement :)

Something they consistently fail at given the patch itself... and now the patch to the patch which I'm sure will need to be patched as well.

This is the best glitch ever. If anything the patch should remove fastest stagger escape from training mode as well.
