I played all afternoon and only had one opponent that didnt lag, out of dozens. A few were bearable.
I guess i dont regret my purchase either, it was only $13.00. Its just frustrating that the online sucks so bad. The majority of players seem to be UK and Japan, so thats most likely a big part of it. But still i could play guilty gear, blaz blue, and street fighter online with little issue. So I dont see why it's so hard.
Here are two things I dont like that are more gripes.
1. The game doesnt have a damn manual. I opened it up and there was nothing related to the game. It is pretty sad they couldnt even scan the damn thing and upload it.
2. 9/10 times the vs online stage is the fire stage. I wish there was a way to randomly select a stage. Maybe there is, but i dont see it.
3. So many people play "mask mode". Life and super bar hidden. So annoying.
