Along with the patch, apparently there`s a temporary $10 price drop on KOF13 and some Atlus EVO support info. If you guys knew people waiting for the patch or a price drop, now's the time to bring up KOF again.

Played a grand total of three people tonight. Looks like a lot of guys are starring at Ivy's tits in Soul Calibur.

Desmond: About the same as it was, maybe slightly better. Hard to tell if it's improved at all.

Jairo-killer: Somehow got worse, almost underwater connection whereas before it was pretty playable.

Some other dude with a Blue connection: Underwater.

I played 4 matches - 2 green, 2 blue, all awful. It's gotten worse for me. I did go back and check to be sure my router was still properly configured and it's fine. Alas, was my internet upgrade for nothing?

When the results are mixed, it's best to assume the ones with the "better" connections are undergoing a placebo effect, trying to see something that isn't really there.

It was a matchmaking patch, nothing more, nor did they really state that it would be anything more.
On 5/26, something that defined a generation shall make its rightful return.  #Toonamisbackbitches.  Prepare yourselves.  Bang.

After I downloaded the patch I played with someone that was a blue bar and it was horrible, lots of stuttering all over the place. Then I made a room and whenever someone would enter, the snyc pop up would come on the character select screen, then disconnect. This happened to almost everyone I tried to connect with in a 20 minute span.

Then I looked at my router settings and found out that my ps3's IP address changed and was off my portforwarding profile. After I fixed it, the matches began to connect. Weird.

I played with a red connection (from Morroco) and that was obviously horrible.

The yellow connections as far as I remember had a lots of input delay.

The green and blue connections I felt were the most playable but I'm trying to figure out if its just because the colors have switched their meanings. It's like green is yellow, and green is blue?

Many of the blue connections, on my side felt good, I played against Nilcam (was our connection really that horrible?), FameDouglas, and Sparkster. Those felt like a big upgrade from the pre-patch green bars to me. I'm trying to figure out why FameDouglas connection from pre-patch was so HORRIBLE and now, it felt damn good, and he was on a mic. We were both busting out combos and the input lag felt very low. I tried playing with Mikel on a blue connection, but he told someone was playing other games on their connection, so it was hella laggy throughout.

Many of the random blue bar connections (4?) felt good to me, and even though once in a while there was a little lag brief lag spike, the input lag I felt was minimal.

I played with Louis on a green bar connection and honestly it felt a little bit of the same as previous times.

I did notice the loading times from character select to the match online was more brief while the team screen had some lag.

So overall, I'm not sure if I'm seeing things because of the patch but it still feels a little inconsistent. I do think there has been a small improvement, but I hope it just wasn't because I was hosting a majority of the time. I think most definitely your connection speed and ping to the player plays a major role on how playable it will be, but I'm still concerned on how the connection between FameDouglas and I pre-patch was so ASS and now we were both like "wow, this is actually good".

Just remember this is day one, I'm interested to continue testing with others and seeing how it is. I will try some matches of me joining other players rooms instead of just hosting to see the difference.

Same experience for Solid and I, we've always had crazed connections until last night. Will try and do another session w him tonight to see if we can replicate that good blue bar experience again.

GGs Bio. I can't remember the last time I played an online game like that so flawlessly, though the only fighters I've played recently are XIII, 3SOE, and a game of AE once. Hope this means a lot more competition will be available now, everywhere.

^The patch doesn't seem to be doing much for most peeps, but seriously I went from not playing online due to horrendous connections time and time again to this. All the other randoms I did online last night were good too - also a first as I've never had a connection that made it worth it to be online till now period. We'll see what the new day brings...

so it seems patch is on just in the usa ? i plaied last nite (around late afternoon time in usa ) and what i noticed is just less ppl available in player match. connection was still the same shit , i didnt noticed any parameters of search or preferences memorized (of course cause i didnt get the patch yet ) so i think im in the box of ppl without patch and i see less players available for this ?

for those who have the patch : when launching the game u received a message saying there was an upgrade for the game or u have to look for the  patch in the marketplace ?

it should ask you if you want to install the patch before you start playing the game it wouldn't be in the marketplace unless it was some type of dlc im guessing if you haven't got it yet it might not be up in your area
