another question rikuto. i seen you mention on stream how good eliot is. does it mostly have to do with his 9frame strike attack or does he have other tools that make him good. can he truly get guaranteed launchers from all his parries? does he have guaranteed follow ups that leave the opponents backturned? can he get guaruanteed follow ups on any of his guard breaks? and also most importantly will he quell my anger and make up for the lack of leon in the game?

wtf why doesn't brads subtiles match the english dub in the 3rd video when he wins?i like how eliot angrily screams "i don't care!" in the 2nd vid at :18 after high countering his kick. seems only the males got decent english voices. ..eliot's english voice actually matches his age and redesign and not some girl deepening her voice like with his Japanese actress.

Could anyone who's played him shed some light on Brad Wong? Everyone seems to think he looks about the same (myself included) based on the videos of him.

I'd really like to play him as one of my main characters, but I probably won't if makes bottom tier for the fourth game in a row.

Wow... Finally an outfit from Brad that I actually like! (The casual one)

I haven't liked any outfits from him since DOA3, also it's nice to see his hair is back in a braid, I don't know what they were doing with him in 4, although he still looks the best in 3 visually.

At least he doesn't look like a transient on the streets anymore.

I agree. I haven't liked any of Brad's outfits from previous games, except for the download one from DOAD. I like his new casual outfit though and this other new one is my favorite to date.

He definitely does look way better with the braid too.

I'm not Rikuto but, I can answer some of this for you.

another question rikuto. i seen you mention on stream how good eliot is. does it mostly have to do with his 9frame strike attack or does he have other tools that make him good.

That i9 punch is the thing that's going to make him a problematic character. His others tools support him extremely well for him to excel. His Parries, his launching throw, juggle damage, and guaranteed setups.

can he truly get guaranteed launchers from all his parries?

Is water wet?! Yeah, he gets attacks and launchers. I did try to use his 3P+K after his mid parry and that wasn't guaranteed. It wasn't on HCH (high counter hold) and it may be guaranteed on a HCH? I'll check him out more this weekend.

does he have guaranteed follow ups that leave the opponents backturned? can he get guaruanteed follow ups on any of his guard breaks?

unfortunately I didn't get to pay with his holds or guard breaks. So I will stop here. I did however use one of his guard breaks :236::P: on CH, it's nasty, it also sends people flying for some good distance.

New videos:
Kasumi vs. Kokoro on The Ends of the Earth

I just noticed a minor detail that seems a little off, the PB's cinematic SLOWMO part still shows water goblets on this level. Why isn't it snow or something, even if it's sweat or something, it'd be frozen... People spit and before it hits the ground it solidifies in LESS than that kind of weather lol

So what happened to the Sweat stage¿ It was playable at E3 but I haven't seen it at all ever since. Was it just bad luck that it never appeared at the tourney or was it locked¿ It looks very cool.

Someone should see if Bass, Eliot and Wong's HD renders are available and post them as well. Just like their faces in the wiki character list.

The scary circus appeared thousands of times just like Scramble and no Sweat. That's lame.

I don't ever wanna play in Scramble again. Too many matches in the Alpha Demo, lol

Was anybody able to see how to transition from the tiger area of the circus stage to the clown part? I still have no idea how that works.
