You probably want to skip the Dead or Alive 5 PC port

Dead or Alive 5 launches for the PC today following a month-long delay but it seems that very little effort has been put into it as it is missing several important, standard features. For a start, there is no support for Steam cloud saves or Steam Achievements.

However, what is worse than that is the fact that multiplayer won’t be coming as a standard feature and may not be patched in to the PC version of the game for several months.

There is no support for key rebinding on keyboards. The official product information page also lists that “effects” are equivalent to the ones found on the PS3 version of the game, while shadows will be more akin to those found on the PS4.

The Soft Engine, which is used on the PS4 and Xbox One versions of the game to make character skin look softer, has also been dropped from the PC version of the game. This is all pretty bad news for anyone who might have pre-ordered the game as the massive list of missing features points to a pretty poor PC port.

KitGuru Says: It is clear that only a minimal amount of effort has gone in to the PC version of this game, which is a real shame as it will likely impact sales. For now, the PC version comes at a 10 per cent discount but that doesn’t make up for the poor quality of the port.

  3. Game runs wonderfully on fx 8350,amd hd
    7950,16gb of ram at full maxed out shadows and 4k resolution looks
    wonderful too and yes there tits bounce only lacking soft engine but as i
    can see it does not look that much diffrent from my x1 version that i
    have too it was worth the 20 dollars that i got it for on steam now just
    need multi player to be unlocked via patch or via mod as the file is in
    there already for multi player maybe steam emu lan fix would be able to
    help play the legit or cracked version over tunngle p2p program hoping
    so. You probaly do not want to skip this game it is worth the 20 dollars i know i have been playing doa since it first came out and Doa5LR on pc is worth it do not listen to these tard case writers they do not know shit from there own asshole ask true DOA fans their opnion they most likly will say the same as me.

  4. I honor techmo to bring all future DOA games to pc as this one is great in every way period and i do not give a fuck if any one else even the writers of this article do not thinks so just proves you are all whiny school girls that expect too much when too much is not needed as the game is a 9 out of 10 no matter what is said about it.

  5. shut up you ass.

  6. What a pile of rubbish.

    Did you type this by randomly bashing your face into the keyboard?

    I know DoA is a game for console kiddies, but seriously.. have some self respect.

  7. Have some self respect I like DOA and nothing anyone can say to me to ever make me change my mind I honor them for making there first ever pc game and actually doing very well at optimizing it too so wah no soft shadows/soft engine you know why cause AMD owns that engine and they do not want the filth of blue and green to get there hands on it oh by the way the game looks not very different from x1 and ps4 plus I have a background in mod development so I can easily make the textures of the whole game look even better than the x1 and ps4 version. So stick what I said in a pipe and smoke it you scum fucker hater of techmo.

  8. What could not understand your righting think you were jacking off to many dudes in a bukake anime fest when you were trying to imply something to me.

  9. Well, you’re a moron.

    Hope you find time in your busy schedule of window licking to enjoy your pathetically ported, pathetically feature poor pathetic pixel tits.

  10. Lol is that what you think I play the game for is the tits lol maybe you do on your low as weak hardware console but I play the game for high action fighting oh by the way I do not need virtual tits I can get them any day from any female I want that’s how much ladies love my sexy body they show me there tits lol so have fun jacking off to porn on the net cause you are not loved and never will be. Console peasant

  11. By the way You seem mad and jealous that us PC MASTER RACE can do anything we want

  12. You’re really sad. I feel bad for you.

    You’ve probably forgotten because you’re clearly very stupid, but earlier you claimed to have been playing this on “x1”. You said it didn’t look “diffrent”. This was just after you drooled on about “yes there tits bounce”.

    I don’t want to bully you, as you’re so obviously a weird, lonely loser with no intelligence, no life and no prospects.

    So I’ll just leave you to enjoy your sad, pathetic cut-down version of your forever alone game. That not even Tecmo gave the tiniest shit about.

  13. I just wiped my ass with your words I am done talking to a pethtic man that acts like he is 4 years of age.

  14. hey Brand @disqus_iZSf8Xi39I:disqus is just a mad fag, he doesn’t enjoy the boobies bouncing as much as we do. This game is SICK! lulz

    > says XB1 version is no different than PC version
    > says PC version is different than XB1 version
    > wat

    If you could get Tecmo’s dick out of your mouth, that would be awesome. I don’t even praise my mother that much for Christ sake. You sir, are a certified dick rider and I’m surprised you like the bouncing boobies at all to be honest.

  16. that sounded g@y with the sexy body thing lol
