Durp...you think?! But anyhow, not everyone has Cyclops lasers from their eyes just for a non-damaging taunt. Hell, even in DOA4 Tina even had a typical punch taunt that hit the opponent if they were close enough, I'd think "Eye Beams" would do something more significant.......
maybe ive never seen a taunt do anything but annoy someone myself

98% of all Taunts do nothing more than just that...Taunt...but you have those 2% in some Fighting games that has certain properties to them. I'm thinking Zack's Eye Laser is apart of that 2%, however, I'll just have to wait and see.
Of course this isn't an important issue at all whatsoever, just addressing this matter is all I'm doing.

Did i miss something? Zack has a laser for a taunt?

I'm just saying that it might be a severe balance issue. We're talking about something like characters with barely any safe moves vs characters that will usually be at a big advantage. I'm hearing that it's being done to every DOA character so far regardless of how they are designed.

Which characters will usually be at a big advantage?

IIRC both you and Rikuto mentioned how much advantage Sarah had, even mentioning how much better it made her than the rest of the cast.

Zack's laser taunt could be similar to Tina's where it does a tiny bit of damage if hit, and can be held.
Rikuto
P-P-P-P-P-P-POWER!
That does not even begin to encompass what is possible in DJ mode.

Also, when Zack starts doing that falling taunt, I thought he was gonna start planking >__>

SF3 has taunts that give people buffs. LIke, if you taunt 3 times with Q, you take less damage for the rest of the round.

Have you played Sarah in VF? I wouldn't say she's always at big advantage, it's just that a skilled player will use the advantage she has to do well in DOA.
I agree that the DOA characters should be safer, but I think you're exaggerating the situation, especially if Sarah is your only example.

I'm only quoting what has been said. All I'm saying is that later down the road it might be considered OP once the game has been developed.

Well, as much as they don't matter, the casuals of DOA will call her OP regardless. Then again, they'll call anyone OP, but still...

Nor do I. As a Kasumi player in DOA4, 60% of my matches were people raging that I had the most OP character in the game. Kasumi. Yes, KASUMI.
