While playing yesterday and generally mucking around, I had a thought that maybe the game could use some kind of new game mode. I'm certain not a lot of people who have been playing DOA5 and it's inceptions since the beginning go back and try to beat their best times/score or relive the horrors of Hard or higher Survival mode. So I though why not put some kind of challenge mode into the game. Kind of like MK9 Challenge tower (but not as a tower), where you play as a certain character/s under set rules. Beating each challenge on easy/medium/hard unlocks 1/2/3 stars and these stars could be used to unlock you a new title, piece of music or, and I know I'm clutching at straws with this one, a new colour/hair style for a characters outfit. Some examples of challenges could be as follows:
Sing When Your Winning: Defeat all members of Pop Idol Team A. (Team A members all have separate health bars and can tag freely)
The Pumpkin Queen: Defeat Mila (in her 2014 Halloween pumpkin outfit) on Hunted Lorelei stage whilst avoiding the exploding pumpkins (ones that roll down at the start and stay on the stage).
100 Second Dash: Defeat Bass, Bayman, Leon and Zack (all wearing American Football outfits). Time limit of 100 seconds.
Enter the Orochi Warriors: Defeat Ayane, Kasumi and Momiji (all wearing Warriors Orochi 3 costumes). They can move at double speed.
Ninja This: Defeat Ayane, Kasumi, Hayabusa and Hayate (all in Ninja pack costumes). Ninja's can randomly turn invisible and remain so until hit.
This is Wrestling: Using Tina or Lisa, defeat Bass using only throws. Costumes are wrestling related. Stage is fighting entertainment.
A Practise Round: Using Honoka, inflict 400 points of damage total on Marie Rose in 30 seconds (no health limit)
David vs Goliath: Using Marie Rose, defeat Raidou. Raidou does double damage while Marie Rose has x2 damage reduction.
Hellooooo Nurse: Using any character, defeat 8 nurses (CPU randomly selected from Ayane, Christie, Hitomi, Kasumi, Kokoro, Tina, Mila, Momiji, Lei Fang, Helena, Nyotengu, Phase 4, Marie Rose). Your health restores to max after each character beaten, nurses however can heal small part of their health when using Critical Burst/Power Blow/Power Launcher.
Bed Time: Using Lei Fang, Marie Rose or Hitomi (in bedtime outfits), defeat Elliot (in his bedtime outfit). Your character randomly falls asleep during the match. Stage is Home.
Clipped: As Nyotengu, defeat Hayabusa. Nyotengu has lost her wings and cannot use any moves that utilize them.
I Want Your Skills: As Raidou, defeat 5 random opponents. Raidou starts with a limited moveset, but gains additional moves with each opponent defeated.
Pirates Vs Mummies: Playing as team of Ein, Gen Fu, Brad Wong and Elliot (in Pirate outfits), defeat Hayabusa, Mila and Momiji (in mummy costumes).
Above the Law: Using team of Christie and Bayman, Defeat all 12 police officers (characters from police uniform set). Gun items can be obtained from striking a downed opponent, which can deal double damage for a short period of time.
Virtua Fighter Vs Dead Or Alive: Using team of Jacky, Sarah, Pai and Akira, defeat 4 random DOA characters. VF team cannot use DOA mechanics (power blows/launchers etc)
There are loads of other examples I can think of. Post your own below see what kind of challenges you think would be good.
