    Bumpy bump to the first page.

    GG, ken. You are so hard to beat (always dominate last round). I think Lion is now worthy to join my main casts lol.

    Hi, Guys..
    Another player from Sydney here.

    GT : Eddie Kage
    Playing Jacky, Kage, Vanessa, Lau

    I played VF4 a lot in Sydney but just started VF5 with XBL.
    Let me add Aus.and NZ players on my friend's list.

    At the moment, Myke, Ken, Strongasdeath on my list.

    It was my first time yesterday to meet a player with full
    antenna bars..that was strongasdeath..lol nice to see you there.

    Hey, Myke and Ken..How come I don't see you guys from Ranking matches?? maybe already went up to high rank?? or maybe you always look for players through the search menu as I do?

    Sorry, Ken.. last night I really had to play ranking matches..
    to bring my ranking up..I was on 1st Dan at 10pm and could get 7th Dan at 1am..lol
    Please let me have another chance to learn about Shun soon again.
    It is very helpful to me..Thanks..

    Eddie, I played you last night but I only had time for a few matches before sleep. I'll probably be online tonight if you or anyone else wants a fight.

    I play a few ranking matches but my chars aren't too suited to play in the lag.

    Shun and Lei Fei hard to use in the lag. I think chars like Lau and Jacky are awesome to use due to good strings.

    I'm 5Dan online play. I can't stand waiting 1-2 mins to get a game going and the have it turn out to be a ppppk and 2p match.

    Anyway learn much more playing vs Myke in perfect game conditions. Online rank mean very little and teaches bad habits.

    Thats probably why I dont online play often.

    so ken, i take it you play offline against other people quite often if you dont play online much?

    unless you meant that you don't play ranking battle much?

    I have met few Aus.players in ranking matches..
    I think 80-90% of players in ranking matches are Japanese..
    In my opinion, ranking matches teach you how other players are playing in the world.(mostly Japan and Korea)
    I always playing rankings with players with one antenna bar and I feel it is ok to play..but definitely can't put best combos..lol
    I will keep playing ranking matches rather than keep playing with one or two players everyday..
    Of course, I will learn a lot, if I play with Myke in the perfect game condition..but I want to use it to other players in the world..lol
    Moreover, it gives me tension when I doing the ranking matches, especially with same Dan players.. and Players have higher than 8-9Dan show quite good skills(not like pppk or 2p moves only).
    I think Ranking matches are worth to play and am happy to go far as much as I can..

    My Jacky is doing fine with players with one antenna bar..lol
    When I play Kage, I feel sometimes he is very heavy to move with combos..I should try other chars like Wolf, Jeffry etc..

    Hi Eddie, nice to see you posting here /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif

    I stay away from ranking matches because 99.99% of the time there's too much lag. I don't have fun playing with a lot of lag, and I don't feel like I'm improving either. Like Ken said, I think it teaches bad habits too. Since I bought the game I've probably only played 30 games total for ranking.

    There have been times when I played ranking matches, and I found that I could only have a playable match against 1 guy. I felt like it was unfair if I would only play him to rank up. It was like I was picking on him. /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif

    If they fix the online player selection to include a region or ping filter, then maybe us Aussies/NZers can have our own little ranking pool going. But until then I'm just going to stick with player matches with my friend's list.

    I'm quite new to VF5 but none the less having a rock around with some fellow Australian's online sounds like it could be fun. I'm just off of Sydney- gamertag is Grimshine.

    Peace, Callum.

    K to da G sent me a message over XBL referring me to this thread, so here I am :D. Despite owning it on the PS3 since early 07 I'm still pretty bad. I'll still be keen for being thrashed though if you guys want to add me, my gamertag is D Flea and I'm from Brisbane. Look forward to seeing you guys online and learning some new things.

    hey wicknoob, i was in a player match with you early tonight. Something happened where the screen just froze green on loading- im not sure if this is a problem with live or on my side. Anyho, its a shame we couldnt start the round. Give me a shout some time and we'll go for a rematch. Peace
