Lee looks like Gan Ning from Dynasty Warriors and the black skirt pants doesn't help, they also change his voice actor and IMO it's worst than the one who did his voice in DOA4. I haven't seen his full combo list for DOA5 yet so I can't comment but if that turn out to be stripped down then it's even worse. So far the negatives outshine the positives on him.

Gan Ning is awesome though i fail to see why your complaining

I hope DOA5 is actually good enough to last a long enough time before we even think of a DOA6 ...
and honestly, the more i try it, the more I fall in love with the stuff they did, both to the characters and overall system. before DOA6, I would rather have a DOA x VF game it just has to happen, especially with how awesome they transitioned Sarah and Akira .. THEN think of a DOA6 and Sega to think of a VF6 ..

Leon Main I presume ? I feel you bro :(

Soooo slight aesthetic changes and some verbal ones ruined the character for you? I would have thought a player would be more concerned about their character's moves than little things like pants and "WATAAAAH!"s.

Yeah that too but I haven't play the game yet so I can't comment on his moves just yet, HOWEVER based on his new designs I think it's complete BS and LAZY on Team Ninjas part to be focusing more attention on crap Virtua Fighters guest characters than our own DOA characters. Like how they left out Leon and Ein, I main those 2 after Lee so you can see my frustration.

The only negative I see is his voice actor. Jann Lee looks awesome.

Right? I got to be honest I can live with the Gan Ning look alike BS but to screw up his beloved "Wataaaah" voice is complete BS. That's like giving Hayabusa a high pitched squeaky voice, I bet more than half of you guys here would complain if that were to happen.

Because Dynasty Warriors and Koei are complete Garbage and shouldn't be allow to touch this game at all. Yet we see a lot of Koei half a** BS in DOA5, obviously most of you haven't played much DW, SW, Oroichi W, DW Gundams, etc to see how bad and piss poor Koei is as a game developer.

What do you expect from them? They couldn't get the VA from 4, that's all there is to it. I don't like the new VA either but there is nothing you can do about it...

Please do not do this again. Make one post, and then edit that post when there is something new you want to add. The "Edit" button is there for a reason, please use it.

oh sorry I'm a new user, so I'm still trying to get the hang of it.

Yeah it sucks but I guess that what we get from a mediocre game developer now (Team Ninja) without Itagaki.

What the hell are you talking about¿ Itagaki leaving was probably the best thing that happened to the company. You have no idea how this game would be with him in command. He literally believed grapplers should not have the ability to defeat ninjas and that's only one of the reasons why they sucked so much in doa4. Bass's top-tierness in DOA3 was a "mistake" on their part.

We'll get used to Jann's new voice. There are more important things to be discussed about the game other than costumes, tits and voice acting.

What the hell does Itagaki have to do with a voice actor not being available? They had to replace Jann Lee's VA...it happens all the damn time. Even Tekken has replaced VA's for a lot of the cast. The VA for Bass passed away, are you going to blame the development team on that one as well?

Also, despite some of my current issues with DoA5, the development team we have now along with Shimbori leading the development is 10x better than Itagaki. Itagaki straight up ruined DoA4. I was cheering when I first found out he was leaving TN. I hated that guy so damn much.

Hello, I'm new here in the forums and to the website. I just found out about FSD like 5 minutes ago lol. So anyways I'm wondering how is everyone liking the games so far, and please give me the details on what you would like to see from now so I can be updated with whatever you are saying. It should be the important changes first, then tits and whatnot XD.

You should introduce yourself in the thread over at General Discussion but well, hello, welcome to the forums.

At the moment, many of us are pleased and happy with how the game is shaping up. It's a HUGE step forwards in comparison with DOA4 but there are still some important issues we want changed before the game releases that would improve the quality of the system even more. We want to be able to achieve CB faster, more frame advantage, more safe moves, less string delay and things like that. You can find the reasons in this thread and others around the site.

Ah, I don't think you're gonna be finding much discussion about the big tits and costumes and that stuff. There are other DOA sites for that. FSD is mostly about gameplay and matchmaking.

Itagaki was brilliant at making action games, Ninja Gaiden 1 and 2 are amazing games. However at fighting games not so much.

We are of one mind then. Do what is necessary yes, but from a design standpoint I think the low hold avoiding highs is quite dumb as well. There is no real balance justification for that.
Well, in order to balance that out, all we need to do is make it so that high holds dodge low attacks. And to make it aesthetically correct, just make the character jump every time you high hold. Of course then middle holds will be unbalanced because they get hit by highs and lows, so we'll have to make it so when you get hit by a high or low attack whilst holding mid, you teleport behind the enemy. That way you'll be sure to have advantage.

I'm watching the IPL tourney now and can't believe what I'm seeing... Background objects are constantly disappearing and reappearing. At least make them transparent, this looks really ugly.

I was just wondering if the voiceovers, japanese ones will stay the same on release. I mean, almost all of the characters voices are the same recordings from DOA4. Does anyone know this will change in final release verison?​

Sabaki's are still pretty useless in DOA... If you guess someone was going to do a high attack it'd be more reasonable to hold and go for more damage. I think it's more preferable to make successful sabaki's deliver a unholdable stun. Maybe a sit down stun.
