DOA5LR (Casual) suggestions for Team Ninja

[Keylay]

IMO, only Eliot and Hayate got better models in DOA5. Bass and Gen Fu are about the same. Other than them, I preferred the DOA4 models for the rest of the male characters. All the Virtua Fighter men look better in DOA5 compared to VF5 though. I was really hoping for better male models but I'm pretty sure that ain't happening. And Ryu is one of the main characters but he looks so... Let's just say I was not rooting for him to get his classic costume. Although he would look cooler in it if he had a mask like his NGB classic costume.

I agree, but I was slightly disappointed with Zack's face (surely you've seen my mini rant on the Photo sharing thread) and skin colour. As much as I love Zack, I wish that they'd make Zack look like this again (props to @Tyaren ) :

If you don't know what Tyaren did, he:

• Removed the Pencil-thin MAC Model Eyebrows
• Made his skin ALOT darker (Like 2-3 shades)
• The GOATEES!
• Ringlets and Straps are Gold instead of White, Red and Black.

Now just yo get rid of the stupid grin and goofy poses....

He's not! o__O I never cared much for Brad, but in DOA4 I thought, I finally got, what TN intended him to be: A really handsome womanizer with the downside, that he's also a hopeless drunkard. Kinda likable actually... In DOA5 he is just a dirty, creepy, old (at least 10 years older) alcoholic.

Well we just ignore doa5 characterizations...

he doesn't look much darker here than in the original art, it looks like the highlights have been muted though which makes his skin look like clay or chocolate lol.
Zack's skin color is pretty dark in game too, but due to the lighting on certain stages the tone fluctuates. the only issue I have with his model is that he looks too much like snoop dogg

Yes, he is! D:

Sorry, my quick edit isn't to your liking... >__>

well, do better next time.

His current skin tone is okay. Now, if they had kept his DOA5 reveal skin tone, then that would have been questionable...

The costume he looks darkest in, is the one with the the blue hoodie. That is where Zack looks like 'Zack'. The skin colour that I didn't like was the Reveal trailer skin colour (which I forgot to mention in my OP). But, I'm content with current Zack. It's just that I want the damn coloured goatee back, and probably the eyebrows gone. It would be a plus if he's was made darker.

LOL he was Caramelized. It's funny.

 

[Rikuto]

It wasn't just Zack's skin tone they messed around with a lot. Kasumi and Ayane both went through a phase in Beta where they looked a lot more Asian with a much darker, smoother tone. Currently they both look downright Caucasian. But whatever. Lighter people keep trying to be darker and darker people keep trying to be lighter. It's a thing.

 

[KasumiLover]

Please don't start with the stupid Lisa nationality topic again >.>

I don't think that's a good idea. Single mode stages aren't in tag for a very good and obvious reason.

Uh, i wasnt really worried about her nationality, All i was focused on was skin but whatever. Anyway, if they could somehow disable danger zones and cliffhangers for the tag mode, it would make the stages fair to play in.

I don't think the system can handle 4 characters AND some of the more detailed stages all at once. But hey I could be wrong.

 

[crapoZK]

Sorry, TN... but why? Y u do dis? Gonna show you guys this because, the 236PPP is actually in DOA5U, just not being able to be used by the player, but COM can do it. PLEASE LR! PLEASE LET ME BE ABLE TO USE 236PPP!

(Excuse my voice, but I did say that I was 14 beforehand...)

 

[Leifang2000]

I wish we could have an onsen stage.

It probably isn't likely to happen. Even tekken tag tournament 2 had to lower the resolution when 3-4 fighters were onscreen. But hey, a guy can dream, right?

4 guy characters? You bet.

4 of their females and their insane poly counts? Eh...

I actually really love Zack's model a lot because he looks like a real black person with black features. Was never a fan of the green hair for him. And Snoop? Snoop's features are a lil too sharp/pointed imo. He looks exactly like Dennis Rodman to me.

It wasn't just Zack's skin tone they messed around with a lot. Kasumi and Ayane both went through a phase in Beta where they looked a lot more Asian with a much darker, smoother tone. Currently they both look downright Caucasian.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed this. I don't expect much to change in terms of character models, but I hope they do some more tweaks.

ahh yes that's a much closer resemblance, I forgot about him.

you....forgot? He VOICED Zack before lol.

That said I still prefer his old look. I don't like how he's really...Urkel in 5.

That's his voice actor making it stand out. I wish TN would have paid for Khary Payton again.

 

[crapoZK]

Zack aside, this is one of my Suggestions for TN.

I need the full package of Beret costumes, as well as that sailor marine one. That was my second favorite Beret Costume, next to the one above.

I do too. His voice was sick. But now we have Shen from LoL, which he did a better job in, than he did with Zack.

Oh, I didn't know he voiced Zack. He's hella Cyborg.
Dennis Rodman voiced Zack too? o wow
