Re: Deals thread

I think the deal is over already but 1600 Microsoft Points were on sale for $10 this past Black Friday at Target. The deal was always questionable so I wasn't able to confirm it in time to post it here, but it ended up being semi-legitimate. I got a bunch of cards for myself and perhaps another pers...

Re: VO: Force- A simple guide to AI (Now with Menu Translati

Shamanic is right, the orders clearly work on the AI. Also, from my testing it does not matter much, if at all, what your Partnership percentage or Friendship level is. However, on the double Jags mission the orders don't work on the AI because it has a bug on this level due to the reverse starting ...

Re: Has anyone completed all the missions for Force?

I was afraid of the survival missions until I noticed that only your own remaining health matters at the end of each match. Just let your AI buddy do all the fighting since he doesn't matter, and stay at 100% yourself. This won't get you an SS rank, though. For the double shadow VRs in 2nd Op, only ...

Re: Question about the fetish code?

Due to difficulties ordering from Japan, as well as having a hard time finding out the complete details about where these codes came from, I accidentally ended up with three of them. So I've got two unused code cards. Aside from that, it's also possible to share the code with a semi-unlimited number...

Re: Sync Ratio?

From my analysis of the system this is how the Sync Ratio works. It is based on the number of matches you have won. Kills don't matter, just each match won. For the Crystal/Disc gathering missions, each level/match "won" also counts as one match, so that's a decently quick way to level up....

Re: VO Marz remake

I've never seen Marz, but now that I've just started playing Force for the first time, what I really wish for is that they remake VOOT with not just HD graphics but improved graphics to today's levels, or at least Force's level. The graphics in Force are so much better than in VOOT. Actually the pol...

Re: Virtual-On OMG and Sticks for PS3 and 360

Hurray! I can't wait to see if the Japanese players can find a way to make Fei-Yen competitive in VOOM. From what I remember Fei-Yen Kn was pretty bad in VOOT in the original years as well, but on Xbox 360 VOOT the Japanese players seem to have made her a top contender, according to what most others...

Re: My quest in getting my VOOM and Twinstick PC to work

The PC VOOM version is still far better than the Saturn VOOM version. It plays at high-res for a game of its time (640x480 haha) and has extra perks like being able to change the color of your robots. Really I only had two complaints for PC VOOM. One being that the game ran at 30 fps, same as on Sat...

Re: Deals thread

I hate Tekken and don't even know the buttons but I play it sometimes as a dress-up game. :) Using a trick I learned with Soul Calibur 5 and Final Fantasy 13-2, I pre-ordered TTT2 from amazon and canceled immediately. By doing this you may get for free the pre-order exclusive DLC and any other gift ...

Re: Share your VO experience or history

Hrm it's been so long I don't remember everyone anymore. I remember Mitch, Naomi, Koichi, Thomas, and Natt. The other ones, I may or may not remember but probably have gotten names/faces/etc mixed up by now. Well, I only met everyone a handful of times anyway. I've played Torin/StarPlatinum87 online...

Re: Share your VO experience or history

I'd been asking about Mitch and company, but no one seemed to be very familiar with them by now. Kind of sad but I guess that is how things go. Who knows though, I feel like they may show up again some day. I encountered "new" players from the USA regularly in the last two months, one or t...

Re: Share your VO experience or history

I recently rediscovered Virtual On after roughly a 10 year hiatus. I didn't own an Xbox 360 and never got the news three years ago regarding VOOT. Thanks to VOOT going on sale though, there was enough general hubbub on various forums that I heard of it. I was shocked to see the popular and hardcore ...

Re: EVO 2012

I don't think players really agree on the tiers for Soul Calibur 5. The guide lists Tira as pretty high tier, and I hear the developers have always thought Tira is overpowered. I think Tira is top tier myself, but the game is pretty balanced so it's not like she is advantaged, she's just the same as...
