The DOA5U "Casual" thread. ^__^

[Rawbietussin]

I just want more casual stuff =P

I'd like an elegant Helena casual costume please =3 and Hayabusa kimono + loose hair! please and thank you~ rofl. (( and for the sake of being repetitive, give my my damn loose hair Rachel >=[ ))

Wake me up when Casual Collection Vol. 3 or Legacy Vol. 2 & 3 arrives.

A schoolboy and professors pack for the guys would be nice too + classroom stage. I'm still holding out a candle for at least Jacky, Leon and Ein's Fighter Packs too.

I'm not sure if this is the best way of gauging interest for a potential product. It's like selling wallpapers in A4 format and asking people "Hey, would you like to have this on your wall? BUY NOW!".

This is probably not the most questionable thing TN have done in the past, but still...

I bought DoAX2, enjoyed it and played it enough to get all the achievements for it (I used to love %100-ing games).
Im sure I'd buy DoAX3 if i came to be, but Im also sure I'd never buy any of the DoA5 picture mode stuff.

For once, I would like Helena to wear someone very casual like a jean and this top (French 'marinière' + lace)
Casual Vol. 2, please!

Think of it this way... We get the fan service to fund the balances and future iterations... Shinbo n hayashi said it themselves .. this stuff sells way better and at the end of the day a company like TK needs numbers in order to greenlight future projects.

They arent shallow.. but the company simply needs the money if its gonna do anything more in the future.

Like Hoya, I had played Paradise and completed everyone's gravures (including imitate -insert character here- ) for a solid 3 months but I wouldn't be caught dead buying something I already seen regardless that is in better graphics.

Helena in jeans would be nice to see for once someday. She (along with Lisa and Christie) has barely worn anything denim unlike most of the other girls who had probably tried it on at least once in their lives.

This my dear Team Ninja. I think every fan of Rachel would pay even 10$ just to have this option.

 

[KwonJigglypuff]

Don't know if people saw this, but.. well...

 

[Rawbietussin]

This is probably not the most questionable thing TN have done in the past, but still...

If anything, I actually find these more questionable than some pre-made 40 seconds video clip DLC of some girls prancing in the water and frolicking in the sand...

And guess how much does one of them cost? A heaping $150. Makes me want to rethink about who is the "real" target audience of this game (unless these comes in men's sizes lol).

God, now i want this to happen. I'll gladly pick up leon if i can throw people into desks constantly

Yeah I imagined the stage would be as cluttered as Home. It didn't made sense how the girls got school uniforms and teacher outfits without a classroom stage. I can imagine him wearing a disheveled professor costume or PE Coach tracksuit similar to Christie's Sue Sylvester cosplay lol.

I literally would pay that money to give her loose hair, and I'm not joking! x___x

 

[Aven Kujo-Gin]

As if TN didn't ruin all that already with the 7 swimsuit DLCs and the recent gravure DLC.

I'd rather have a DOAX3 so that stuff can go where it belongs than have it in my DOA fighting game.

Either way you look at it it gives DOA a bad name.

Couldn't agree more.

 

[Klts3]

I'm not joking too. I want it so much that I can pay a lot. And don't be scared Ivan. Many people would pay for it. Share your opinion with pride. Believe me, Team Ninja won't get to know. They're too lazy to read it (of course we can pretend that they listened to players and now they are busy with bringin back Tengu to DOA).

 

[Project Bokuho]

Are you disagreeing with everything everyone says just because or what? Pink would look fine on the guys if done right and the whole 'pink is 4 girls, blue is 4 boys' thing is incredibly dated.

I wouldn't mind as long as the guys get something in pink to give more color in their costumes (they usually received costumes in the duller end of the spectrum with nothing but earthy tone colors) and as long as Christie (and maybe Mila) gets to wear her butler costume from 3, preferable if Christie got the red version so she can look like King from KOF + short hairstyle.

The English version of this: "Tough guys wear pink"

*coughs*

Your call. Take a pick

 

[Ivan Osorio]

And don't be scared Ivan. Many people would pay for it. Share your opinion with pride.

I would, but I'm honestly torn. I want the loose hair option, but I wouldn't pay more than a buck for it. Despite my burning hatred of DLC, I do support this game and purchase stuff from time to time. The thing is that the content is mostly "new" (or at least severely improved, like the Legacy Pack - I mean, all the power to people wanting old costumes and / or characters back; personally, I would prefer new stuff.), and it is obviously being worked on "post release", and it is nothing that has any impact on gameplay, so I don't see the problem.
On the other hand, I don't want to pay for something that already exists and would require minimal work to implement. It's not like Rachel doesn't have a gazillion of hair options in Ninja Gaiden that they could "import".

The thing is that this business is all about trends and what developers and publishers think they can get away with. If you pay for something you can always expect it to be more expensive the next time around. I severely fear how a DOA6 might turn out because, given how much DLC is likely being bought, that thing will probably come stripped. It has already become stablished that people will pay for costumes. Why give it to them for free?

I wish I had strong enough moral grounds to put my foot down and say I will never buy a hair option, but if they released it for a good price and it looked nice enough, sure. But that just SCREAMS "exploitable behavior" to me.

I admit a healthy degree of paranoia in that line of thought.

If I had to pick, I would choose the first one.
But I'd rather have something new.

I was waiting for the 1.04 patch to hit the 360 before I purchased these, but here's my gameplay preview video of the new costumes:

Believe me, Team Ninja won't get to know. They're too lazy to read it

This is an unfair statement, TN showned more times in more occurences to listen the requests of the players; you have to consider that before they want be sure that there is a big part of people asking for it, and that it's always needed a certain gap between the request and the effective apply of the change (like Mr.Wah stated in his interview about his requests of changes to Bass).

By the way I admit that in the case of Rachel both of these elements seem to me already present, so I don't understand why Team Ninja didn't released until now outfits with this option for her... maybe there are technical problems?

 

[KwonJigglypuff]

I was waiting for the 1.04 patch to hit the 360 before I purchased these, but here's my gameplay preview video of the new costumes:

Thanks, I was looking for this.
Helena's pareo is actually very floaty, not too stiff, I like it. I'm proud of you TN, well done.
Can't wait for DOA6 to have a pallet and change the color, hopefully. It would look glorious in RED.

 

[David Gregg]

So wait I'm confused. When you guys say loose hair do you mean the one Rachel has under her football helmet that looks like Tina's? If so I agree that it shouldn't have been that hard to have just added it to all costumes in the update.
