When I first startup the game, the PS3 reads the disc very loud.
And during the Team Ninja logo, the video became laggy.
(Same happened to some Team Ninja games in the past.)
This happens most likely the game is reading saves from the last game.
If you have a DOA5 save, it will ask if you would like to transfer the progress.
Answer YES, and all titles and story movie scenes are unlocked.
Winning and loosing movie scenes are all locked though.
Replays from DOA5 cannot transfer to DOA5U.
The PS3 movie interface has been updated to look like the xbox version (gallery mode, you can see all videos snapshots in one place instead of loading everytime.)
Costumes are all listed, if you missed a download/cross save costume, it will be marked as unavailable so you know you don't have that one. But you can preview it.
A new costume RANDOM choose option is at the bottom.
All new costumes for old characters are locked at the start.
Chosen song is by default not selected. You can choose songs for every stage, also the main option menu music. Several DOA4 songs are available right at the start but DOA3, DOA2 ones are not there yet (need to unlock?)
Momiji, Rachel has 4 costumes at the start, Costume 1, 2 are available right away.
Costume 3, 4 are locked.
Leon, Ein has 3 costumes, costume 1, 2 available right away. Costume 3 is locked.
Jacky has 4 costumes.
For other characters, their new costumes in DOA5U are all locked.
Although unlocked titles are transferred, you need to set them up again for your profile.
Control settings need to be setup again, not transferred from DOA5.
You can choose camera / hit effect settings right at the start.
Also, online lag simulation can be set right at the start, you can choose not to have it simulate.
Color stage background are back (well we know that already, but because this option I asked for it when giving feedback.)
(update: What I meant is the stages are in colors when you are browsing the menu, in DOA5, the stage in the background is in black and white while you browse around.)
That's it for now.
Update:
About the Asian/Japanese collector edition:
The playing cards:
They are quite like the ones that were released back then during DOAX.
The are plastic, but with matte surface, so they can be hold better with your hands.
(Compared to DOAX ones where they are too slippery.)
But quality-wise, I think DOAX ones are much better.
I found DOA5U ones thinner than DOAX ones (base solely on my memory)
Kasumi Mousepad:
All the pictures on the web did not show that the surface actually has some ..."lines" around them.
Maybe it is due to the texture of the fabric they used on the mousepad.
I think the result, like most printed material on fabric, the definition of Kasumi picture on the mousepad is lowered.
The quality looks exactly like all other breast mousepad made nowadays...in China.
Soundtrack Vol. 3
Not hearing it yet, will update this part later.
Youtube upload:
I still got the exact same error as DOA5.
I think it has to do with the google plus thing, but I already disable G+
(Or maybe not, someone need to update a solution for this)
The Asian version also comes with a cleaning cloth.
Might be handy for cleaning the Joystick surface for dirty finger prints.
