personausermike Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 yesterday, Saturday Jan.14th, the online details were finally released. Here's a summary of the article (courtesy of shoryuken) -Preview event at Tokyo Namco Bandai Studios -Demo Station with Mad Catz Sticks an hour of play -Dampierre and Algol playable characters -The online mode of Soul Calibur V is divided essentially into two sections:Player Match and the Global Coliseum. -Player Match: players can create special rooms, access to challenge friends in single match or in small tournaments. -Viewers can leave comments in a chat room. -Global Colosseum is an Extended Lobby, which can access up to 50 Player -Each player is represented by a card (which can be customized with a number of options) -UI very “visual” and easily readable. -Selecting a player card, you can check stats and challenge a Player -In the MIddle of Colosseo there are two section -Random Match is always available -Players can place their card for random matches -The other area is dedicated to the Ranked Match. It will not always active: will light up about 2 times a month, for a few days. -Another major introduction is the Soul Link. You can choose up to three players to be monitored constantly to keep an eye on their stats and activities. (A sort of Autolog) -Soul Calibur V servers are located in the Tokyo office, -Netcode is very stable personally, your guess is as good as mine with this 'ranked will not activate/2 times a month thing' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

personausermike Posted January 16, 2012 Author Share Posted January 16, 2012 WOW! I can tell by your PSN userID...guess I know who your favourate characters are! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robotronfiend Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Lights up twice a month means that they will be holding battles for ranking only twice per month. That will cut down on the "point grinders" who do nothing but play ranked matches all day every day. This also means that during non-ranking days, there will be a larger player base for matches. I can also see getting excited for the tournament/ranking weekends for this. I lost interest in SF4 ranking matches pretty fast. Keep up the hype, don't split the player base every day between regular and ranked, and I think that it will remain fun for a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kagerasimaru Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Don't talk about Talim, make us sad I'm sorry man, but she was what got me into the series and a no return is a big shame on NAMCO. She's IMO the best character in the game. I even went far enough to sign a petition but no luck. Ill buy the game if she's released as dlc but that's also not very fair considering she was supposed to b in the game in the first place. This game takes place 17 years in the future and talim being 1 of the youngest characters should have returned which honestly should have been a no brainer.

Im totally with you on that, but no one character alone missing from any roster would ever drive me to not play the fighting series i enjoy personally.

Kagerasimaru Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 My brother always kicked my ass with Talim in Soulcalibur II... I've never really been good with her move set. Really? I find her to be one of the easier characters to learn once u understand her stances. I'm one of those who fights with faster characters and thats y i felt right at home.

personausermike Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 I think it comes to this: Say your fave character...now say that they took them away in this game. If you play with Ivy, imagine they took her out. If you play with Voldo, imagine they took him out, etc. That is what it comes down to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
