The official Dead Or Alive 5 thread

welll,

good player in my eyes overturn these match-ups,

a good player makes little mistakes and give little chance for the opposite number to do something useful,



what i meant was that the character stats are important, however the player using him/her is more important, people control the character, the stats....are nothing but a number to me

Honestly, it really depends on the game. In MK, a good Kitana player doesn't really have much of a hope against an equally skilled Kenshi. Unless you really outplay your opponent, you're going to lose. DOA4 felt like every fight was even because you essentially just guess/counter out of any bad situation. If that's gone in DOA5, you might notice that certain match ups feel significantly worse than others.

The person in control of the character is important as well though, I do agree with you on that.

I haven't played DOA5 in 2 weeks...they should've picked a different stage for the demo, I hate the current one xD. Sh** is literally everywhere lol.

This custom cover looks REALLLY cool....

Basically what AW said.
In the vast majority of fighting games, matchups are very important. They're more than a number. What it basically shows is that, for example, if I were to play My Zelda against your Falco, and as players, we were of completely on par, equal skill. Your Falco would win. Like I've said before, I constantly lose to ninjas. I am 100% better than them. They can't even do a single juggle, but because of my matchup, I lose.
I think it's important that TN sees these things as well, as it's a good opportunity for them to tweak things, to try and make matchups as fair as possible.

omg that cover looks amazing

we all like the cover,



I wanna seeeee new stage =P

Did anyone else notice that Hitomi seems to get 'more damaged' then any of the other characters? I beat the heck out of Ayane and was up 4 rounds to 0, and all Ayane had was a bruise on her arm while Hitomi looked like she'd been through hell. I'll post a picture of what I mean later on since I'm doing some video editing on a new combo video I'm working on - maybe it's just that she's in a white tank top while the others are all more dressed?

Yeah, she does tend to get more messy then the other characters. Maybe because she is wearing a white shirt/green jumper and the rest are wearing slightly darker costumes.

I wouldn't be surprised, if you get what I'm saying :/

Just wrote to Chin on twitter, if TN will appear at this years London Expo and showcase DOA5 news he gave me a yes, sort off

@Leifang12: @inspchin Hey Chin. Will TN/TK be at this years London Expo and showcasing DOA5?
@inspchin: @Leifang12 Working on it. I think it's a yes. It's the only opportunity we have here in UK

^^ I feel more happy after reading this. London expo is only a month away and it would be cool to get some DOA5 news.

I'm glad to hear that they might be going to London Expo. I need to get everything sorted out for this event.

True, but then why is it in Ayane's second costumes where her arms are exposed, they always look clean while Hitomi's get scrapped/cut/bruised?

This. Another reason I dislike the Ninja's and TN

over a month, nothing new

bored now pretty much like this

Their is a chance that TN might be at the London expo so we can look forward to that

whens that ??

I'm still waiting for a video of Hitomi beating the hell out of someone.

Doesn't even have to be Ayane at this point, I'll take anyone.

lol,

you have the demo ???

why wait for a vid when you can do it yourself =P

It's not the same

I wonder if they'll show all the characters before the game comes out...or maybe a roster leak like MK9

well,

they should do, not all the list,

like say if hidden characters like example Momiji ( PRAYING, would be awesome)

where added, i dont think they will show her, or however
