The online 6 player lobbies and netcode is great!!

Just tried online with a couple of people. The matches are great online!! The lobby uses nice timer (that host can pause) and the top two players choose 1p side or 2p side cycling with X. after the 30 sec lobby counter, it counts down 5 secs for both players to get ready. the loading is FAST!!!! Players CAN spectate while waiting for their turn. The controls are responsive and everything looks and plays great. It is shocking this has quality online play (connection speeds may vary from person to person). There is quick match, custom searches and create your own lobby. Player matches and Ranked matches. You can set up to 5 rounds and up to 90 sec timer . And you can set private slots if you want, and set amount of player slots 2-6. Secret Character can be turned on/off. Really perfect port.

well that may vary, people could meet people online that play in their time, and have good connection and just add them to friends list. People can form their own little league for Fighting Vipers, but most are too lazy to do it and think just playing with randoms is going to keep online active. how do you think local arcades in the world that have dedicated players always have players there? Because there is social interaction between players so they know when to meet and play something together instead of solo. The same works for online. People that keep in touch can continue playing a game online, and this has room for up to 6 people per lobby, so if people just play online and meet people that are also looking for players, they can get more matches started if they are on friends list. But yea if people don't do nothing, they won't have other players and a party session to play something online. Online doesn't need to depend on just randoms to come across. players keep contact.
