Longer DOA5 Pre-Alpha Trailer Soon!
- Thread starter grap3fruitman
- Start date
This pre alpha stuff looks great. I don't particularly like how the game speed seems slowed down from 4, but I'm also optimistic about 5. Cautiously optimistic.
You've lost me sir. All I've seen is DOA4/D in this trailer. Care to elaborate?

The very first time I watched the trailer I felt that way as well. But the more I watch it, the more it feels about the same pace as doa3.

In DOA 4 what are my options to kill people? strategically, I mean, and when im not just humping the triangle system?
This game clearly has some environmental strategies to play off of that are not just random bullshit. juggles off of exploding surfaces, character/stage specific (finisher? or just special?) moves... all of which seems pre-determined and triggerable in a controlled manner.
most importantly, once you're into that shit, it seems to me you're into it. Aint no countering outa that...

Agreed. Being fast isn't always the best.
Would someone care to mention that the full trailer is up now? Available here: http://www.gametrailers.com/video/exclusive-tgs-dead-or/721700
I had no idea what Rikuto was talking about when I wrote that response. The environmental stuff looks nice and interesting but... I still see all of DOA4s flaws when I watch the trailer. I want to be excited but I can't be.
I watch that trailer and I think about what Perfect Legend was talking on the podcast about he thinks about with Team Ninja and DOA4; they "want you to string-trade. You do a string, okay, now I do mine," etc. I see that same exact thing here and I see all other flaws and I can't get excited.
Ryu got knocked into the wall and stuck to it DOA2 style but was that because of the distance or what? I'm at work and I can't really watch the thing over and over to get a good look into it.

It's still just a pre-alpha build. This video is just to show its looks and environmental use. The core gameplay will be dramatically changed alot. It's too early to call Team NINJA a failure as the game it still in development and we still have chances to get the gameplay how it needs to be via connections with them.

You can't not be optimistic.
Even with the string trade bullshit. Why?
Because there is a way to KILL PEOPLE that doesn't rely 100% on that retarded triangle system. You have no idea how huge that is to people like me who actually played that god awful game 20,000 matches online trying to find something... anything in the game...
And this is it. This is that THING.
This alone changes everything. If they fix the rest of the game at the same time, great.
