I agree with you about the DS, I would never want to play a fighthing game on it
and on another note, Iam not sure how I feel about the game play.. I want to see Helena, I want to see how she plays in this.

You certainly have a grasp of the obvious.
So why not move on from your case of core player depression you're showing here and demand an on-location beta loketest stateside, preferably on the EC? At this point, it's all you guys really can do, right? Is it not worth a shot to at least try? We're not exactly sure how close they are to that stage, and it's surely a better, less destructive way to handle your frustrations than saying "Oh, this game is done" or "Oh, this game will fail because of such-and-such, so I'm playing something else". Bitching about a dated build don't help anyone. Pushing this idea will, however. Besides, TN does need to get out more.

Cause it's that good of a game! Sorwah, VirtuaPai, Rikuto and Raasu can all vouch for that as can I. We have knowledgeable DOA3.1 players here on FSD. Also the game ain't gotta have online play to be good, you should know that. God your sentence sounds such like a casual player. lol! =P

Quite the contrary. DrDogg is a guy who, if he is to invest time/effort into playing a game, wants said game to facilitate him playing competitively. For that, the game will either need to be tournament-active (meaning it is a game actively played by the FGC) or have solid online play (so he could at least find viable competition in that regard).
So if he sees other games as being more rewarding to the investment of time and effort, then that is entirely his call.

This. You can train yourself to do combos perfectly, to space perfectly, to setup perfectly, to evade perfectly, etc. These things reward time spent on the game, and it is reflected in the number of people who play them.
You cannot train to guess perfectly.
In good games, certain situations have acceptable 50/50's that call for guessing because the situation was created by a mistake on the defenders part. Regardless of the fairness, these situations are highly criticized based on the payoff and give those characters a TON of hate usually.
Unfortunately for DOA, just about every situation is a 50/50. This creates hatred for every character, which in turn creates hatred for the game itself.
-Yes it did!
Rikuto said:
-This is the truth. The way 3.1 handled stuns was as if there were no critical holds. It was basically stun~Launch/throw. The fear of being high counter thrown resulted in a lot of trepidation for the defender. Also, being juggled(knocked back) off the stage was also another major concern. Critical holds were used more for low hold escaping than anything else. Because of this, players had a stronger defense/offense. Trust, if they removed critical holds, it would not be missed.There would be enough holding opportunities out of stun.
-Dead or Alive really need to be what it name suggests. You are either Dead or Alive, not 50,000 chances to escape death(critical holds) so you can be alive. There need to be a significantly-greater emphasis placed on the 1st response of Defense, not the 2nd,3rd-6th or 7th that Doa currently entail(due to critical holds). The player with the weaker Defense should always lose, point blank, period.
- If you get caught with a Blow, it is your fault alone.
- If you get caught with a Throw, it is your fault alone.
- If you get caught with a Hold, it is your fault alone.
- If you get stepped, it is your fault alone.
- If you get blocked, it is your fault alone.
- Etc, etc.
-As for other important defensive measures, Free Step Dodging, Team Ninja(Shimbori-San) should make
/ 0/3/22. When executed, the defender can evade almost instantly(great for FSD'ing while at a disadvantage) and will have 3 'hit frames' to evade(3 frames of invulnerability from blows), with a 22 frame recovery. If done successfully, the evade should place you to your opponents back(or *side), resulting with your opponent attacking the air until he deliberately presses or (whatever guarding scheme they use) to turn front facing. Any successful follow-up blow/throw should have counter revisions. If you fail to evade correctly, a successful blow/throw from your opponent will result in a counter blow/throw.*Team Ninja(Shimbori-San), need to bring back limbo stuns and create other special side hitting blows and throws(setups,traps and situations). All other fighters have been done this, and it is time Doa expand upon this.

I know man. Just his post kinda sounded like something a scrub would say is all. But DrDogg should try and get DOA3.1. I know that nigga has to be rich and have some connections on getting an Xbox, Action Replay, Splinter Cell, Memory Card and DOA3.1. He's missing out on good stuff.

Not if he has nobody to play it with. The CPU isn't exactly intelligent in that game.

This has already been done. It's just not at a point where it needs to be made public.
I don't care how good a fighting game is. If there's no competitive scene, I'm not interested. Playing against the computer or traveling to 5-man tournaments isn't exactly my idea of fun... >_>
Dated or not, holding during critical state is not new to DOA5. I would love to see the reaction to DOA5 from SRK if an article went up entitled "DOA5: No More Counters During Stuns."
You'd make it six! =P

That's one of the reasons why I highly doubt they are going to make that change in the gameplay now. Those powerblows are probably very strong, and even if the damage was toned down (assuming that it is high) the situations they put you are in pretty good and to get it all the time once someone is stunned is crazy. It's too much to change, even though I'd like them to be removed.

I'm watching it right now! I wish I knew where he found it. I actually want to see the video nonstop, the constant pausing and rewinding is a bit tedious. Good shit though.
