Your Rating for DOA6

[Napoleon]

DOA6 didn't really floped, i don't call 3 millions downloads for a fighting game a flop.

DOA fans/players still play DOA6 a lot.

Also DOA5U came 1 year after DOA5 vanilla, so we all know it should have been probably the same for DOA6 and because the next gen incoming.

But the real bitch here is the covid.

* Just add 3 classic DOA stages and 4 new stages, bring back the missing characters and add a new one. Then it would be fire and the hype is back.

The game came out last year and barely anybody plays it. I can’t find lobbies on console. I have to create my own in order to be able to play, I often have to wait for 10 minutes before someone joins. Also since you want to bring up the 3 million downloads. Most of these downloads came from core fighters, the free version that came out a week after the game’s release. If you think the game is still alive and thriving you’re delusional. I’m a DOA fan and I barely play it anymore.

Bringing back, Ein and Leon isn’t suddenly gonna make the game more popular. It would just catch people’s attention for a second and then people would leave again. Gameplay, the lack of content, and them clearly prioritising loli’s in bikinis is what is keeping the people away.

What made DOA5 more popular than DOA6 is the fact that back then even though the game wasn’t finished, it was playable and you could play online with your friends. With DOA6 it took more than a month before being able to play with your friends. Also that back then you didn’t have $90 seasonpasses at launch full of shitty content that was in the previous game.

DOA5 got a ultimate update after a year, DOA6 got the discontinue update after a year. See the difference? Also, don’t blame COVID for the game being dead because the game was already dead before COVID was a thing.

Doa6 was dead 5 months after release, canceled after a year. DOA5 got supported for 7 years? How his DOA5 trash?

Stop with DOA5, this game was also a deadzone af on console, and DOA5LR still has no online lobbies on PC.

Stop acting like DOA5 was so godlike or the best... This fighting game is just "OK/GOOD" but no way it was near to be as good or even so great like the DOA-2-3-4 from Itagaki.

DOA5 looked awful and dule. I just hated these graphics and that art style, the game feels cheap and bland.

Music was bad, characters were porn, stages were meh, game menus were sad ugly, ...

In fact it's the least DOA game of the series, and that game kinda already had meter too.

Video games are not just gameplay only, it's an overall feeling, and it's the same for fighting games.

 

[human013]

Dead or Alive 6 is not amazing or godlike, i agree it's not perfect, but it's still a great fighting game to look and play imo. I'm waiting for Dead or Alive 6 Ultimate for sure, some changes and adjustements to the game would improve DOA6 and make it a lot better. It's up to Koei Tecmo and Team Ninja.

And again, people needs to stop bashing DOA6 gameplay or meter. It's still DOA in 2020, and Tekken or SoulCalibur also have meter but that's not a reason for the fanbase to destroy their beloved fighting game for years and they know they have to support it cause we are not in 1998 or 2003 anymore

People bash it constantly because it is a sequel. Sequels have to be better than the game before. If this was not DOA but a totally new fighting game then its faults can be reasonably forgiven. Also, everyone is waiting for the next DOA and praying it is lightyears better than DOA6 but people just do not have much confidence in TN. Like you said, it is up to them to deliver.

DOA6 is in this mess because it decided to copy other fighters while having no experience, so comparing DOA6 to the other successful fighters is a bad idea. Tekken and SC both have solid gameplay mechanics so they have room to experiment and add things like meter. DOA6 does not have that luxury. DOA6 at its core needs more polishing before implementing extra mechanics like meters.

The DOA situation could be a lot worst, just look at the very sad Virtua Fighter...

I don't think looking at it that way helps. We should be fine with whatever is given to us because it is better than getting nothing? That is just a way to slowly kill the series. Every new sequel gets less and less sells until the series dies. It might even be happening right now to DOA. The negative press and reception for DOA5 and 6 might have damaged DOA in irreparable ways.

Stop with DOA5, this game was also a deadzone af on console, and DOA5LR still has no lobbies on PC.

You can believe what you want but look at things objectively every now and then.

 

[Radiance]

Gameplay - No
Graphics - Yes, but stages don't do the game justice. TN didn't even bother to adjust the stages that were unplayable in tournament play.
Sound and Music - Yes
Story - NO NO NO.
Replay Value - just online.

2/5

Gameplay wise, I love that certain characters I liked became stronger (Brad Wong), however, TN took a step back and decided to nerf his tools. The whole point of his evasive moves is to be EVASIVE. They nerfed several characters that were fine as is, removing tournament viability. Now everyone runs around with Kasumi's bald headed ass.

The meter mechanics are just bad. There's nothing else to add to that, PERIODT.

The DLC? A damn shame. They resold us Phase, Nyo, Rachel, Momiji, and Mai. What was the reason???!?

Story mode - A joke. I did like seeing Raidou, but other than that it was just comical. I miss the serious/dark tone from previous iterations. DOA5 story mode was a downgrade from 2-4 but it still had that dark tone that I loved about the serious. DOA6 they just threw it away all to sell Marie and Honoka.

Very little thought went into this game which is sad because it's so beautiful to look at, but if you pour glitter on shit it's still shit. I still play online from time to time if I happen to see someone playing but I've been putting my time into Soul Calibur.

 

[Napoleon]

DOA6 is still solid and still DOA, at least as much as 5. It could be a lot worse and it's not that bad like some people love claiming it is.

You guys just want it to be more esport and EVO like Tekken. That shit is just marketing and only 1% of the players base is concerned. Also Tekken 7 is one of the most overrated fighting game of all time. And SoulCa6 is just "who care ?" but it's there so that's fine.

All we have now is just to play the game while waiting for it to have an obvious upgrade in the future, or go back to DOA5 if it's so good and if we like it so much apparently.

In before DOA6 Ultimate was so great after the DOA7 release ...

 

[Radiance]

That's my personal rating. You don't have to like it, or need to convince me otherwise. I dislike the game and I wish it could be deleted. If you love/enjoy it more power to you brotha. How are you going to tell people how they should feel about their personal experiences with something? =/

 

[Napoleon]

Yep that's your legit opinions guys and i have mine.

I just hope that we can talk about it again in the future if DOA6 has an Ultimate version.

Sure DOA6 current state is not the best it could be, but it's not terrible and pure garbage either.

But end of story to me i have already shared enough my feeling about the game at the moment.

And whatever, Itagaki said one day he will do something for DOA again, to fix or to save his franchise (lol).

 

[oMASTER LEGENDo]

Doa 6 is solid trash. moving on -1/5

The characters in DOA6 just are updated DOA5 models. The same music of DOA5 is in DOA6. So your music argument is a load of shit. You can dislike DOA5, but it clearly was better than DOA6.

 

[DestructionBomb]

DOA6 didn't really floped, i don't call 3 millions downloads for a fighting game a flop.

It's 2020 and yet people still use this as some sort of leverage or accolade lol.

1) The game is free. Can be bought, but also free.

2) You can download the game and immediately delete it after which unfortunately counts as a download because it bamboozles people into thinking it provides evidence of what a flop is and what isn't.

Basically, this cannot be used as a leverage if it's not consistent and favored to what it actually does. There is a reason why that gets meme'd on. You can have 5 million downloads but yet only find 10-20 people in ranked on that game. Free downloads is a massive contradiction. Obviously what I said sounds negative, but people have to be aware for this type of thing because the mass majority of those downloads were the free version, otherwise it would of been noted as the highest selling game in KT's custody (which is not).

I mean hey, people can thrash DOA5 vanilla if they want (heck even I use to talk shit about DOA5 vanilla), but that game actually had a moderately good outcome which I have to admit, simply because it was released during the time period where DOA4 was the only mothership title active for years. On top of it....Drum rolls...here it comes:

Spoiler

The game had to be bought, wasn't free at the time. No core fighters existed until DOA5U (which DOA5U is also currently one of the biggest hits DOA has ever achieved in it's entirety, and that one was free and generated a good chunk of players that are still around till this day). So it made it's money in a more general fashion that doesn't involve with typical false accolades.

But like someone mentioned, if you like DOA6, by all means continue to play it, I see no harm in that.

 

[Napoleon]

So why you all don't go to play DOA5LR then ?????????????????

All we see is blablabla on the internet.

Where are you DOA5 players ??????????

Nobody played that dead game and still don't play it.

I tought that game was so the best ??????????????

That game was average. Like no way AT ALL it was on the same league of DOA2 DOA3 DOA4.

AND THE MUSIC WAS ABSOLUTELY TRASH IN 5 STOP LYING.

"Characters are just updated" of course it is. What do you want ? Characters from Tekken or Dragon Ball Z ??????? It's DOA, of course you will have updated characters from DOA.

And yet, all those games seem to do better than DOA. You can keep dickriding and try to be all this positive about the game, but it’s not working. If a game gets discontinued within a year of its release it’s not far fetched to think that it might be the game and not the player base.

Also people don’t want the game to be more “E-sport”. TN wanted to make the game more E-sport due to how popular E-sport has become over the years. Have you forgotten the fact that DOA6 had a world championship with $90K worth of prize money at launch??

For you the update is “obvious”, but honestly I am not sure about an update anymore. It was only recently that TN announced at the round table that they are on a break and won’t be working on DOA anytime soon.

You’re acting like DOA6 is the pinnacle of modern day DOA when it’s clearly not. DOA6 has everything a lot of people wanted, but everything is also so poorly executed, that it’s hard not to be disappointed. DOA6 is just too controversial, on many levels.

So why you all don't go to play DOA5LR then ?????????????????

You smoke crack?
1. I do play DOA5LR as well, thank you.
2. Funny how you call the game dead when the tournament scene for that game was thriving and had more downloads than DOA6.
3. Music taste differs per person so how can anybody lie about that??
4. if you’re gonna use a quote of mine use the full sentence, not just the half of it.
Today’s the first day I’ve seen you and I can already say you’re a very obnoxious person.

Do you really think they made a new 3D engine, characters, animations ... just to give up all that hard work and money investment ? That's really not how fighting games work, and even more today.

And DOA6 being average, is also a VERY good reason to sell a differrent and better version of the game with DOA6U.

Remember DOA5 vanilla was ass, and it also had an Ultimate version only after 1 year.

Of course we will see DOA again with next gen, but will they call it DOA6U or DOA7 ?

But no DOA anymore for a long time ? LOL fake.

They are already working on it, and when the next version is ready (1-2 years), we will see DOA again.

 

[DestructionBomb]

So why you all don't go to play DOA5LR then ?????????????????

Ah, another one of these posts. The classic old nitbits.

Don't see how DOA5LR has any relevance with the situation. 6 is the current game. Was merely putting it out there on why 5 million downloads isn't exactly a badge of honor as you make it out to be as a flex since it's never consistent. If core fighters never existed and the downloads justified to the amount of copies sold entirely, then I don't think anyone would even go against that debate. It's not Fortnite levels where you can get away with free downloads and get playerbase growing every single time at a huge alarming rate.

I like and enjoy DOA, but let's not get carried away here.

All we see is blablabla on the internet.

The good ol "we" trick right? into the man child moment.

K.

Where are you DOA5 players ??????????

The game isn't being supported anymore. DOA has one of the smaller fanbases out there, not enough players to shift between the two probably. Doesn't take rocket science to figure that one out.

I tought that game was so the best ??????????????

Maybe, but I mean you like DOA6 so not sure how that matters to the discussion if you are so intact to glorify the latest version.

Nobody played that dead game and still don't play it.

Evidence that doesn't exist, but go on.

But if you mean -now-? maybe? on the fair note, when that game was at it's prime up until the announcement of 6, best believe it was heavily fluxed with players. Not as big as the other main fighting game titles out there obviously, but it was enough to stand on it's own toes.

That game was average. Like no way AT ALL it was on the same league of DOA2 DOA3 DOA4.

If DOA5 was average then that must mean 6 is below average yes? kek. Anyways, all you had to say is that you like 6 and that you was never around to experience the good stuff from the previous ones, it's not that hard. If you like 6, kudos to develop the tolerance to like it for whatever reason you had in mind.

As for other DOAs, that's debatable. They are definitely good. Especially DOA2 and 3. Not sure about DOA4 though, but hey who knows lel. Play what you like.

AND THE MUSIC WAS ABSOLUTELY TRASH IN 5 STOP LYING.

Music is one's taste and opinionated, though I also think some of the music tracks there was weak yeah (imo on that one of course). Maybe that's why they gave the option to introduce some of the older DOA tracks to compensate for it. Definitely one of DOA5 vanilla's flaw, which was later fixed in DOA5U and made it a natural thing for future DOAs to come.

"Characters are just updated" of course it is. What do you want ? Characters from Tekken or Dragon Ball Z ???????

Going from your previous posts before this one in how you respond to other people, and this very current post including every bit of sentence right here, I already have bits of what to expect from you so this conversation is over.

 

[Napoleon]

I'm not here to clash with you. I have no time for that, and i don't care if you want to be epop on a dead forum.

But stop overracting with DOA6 being in a terrible state, just like it was unplayable or full of glitches.

Triangle system is still here. It's still smooth, it's still fun.

And stop praising DOA5. Vanilla was ass, Ultimate was less ass, and LR was just OK.

 

[DestructionBomb]

Shows over folks, let that user enjoy DOA6 in peace. He has every right to live in the barbaric :bigbrain: wetlands of DOA6.

Back on topic, because of how gapped the 1-5 system is, I just want to broad it out as a 4/10. Music and base characters is generally good, newcomers of characters is eh. Replay value can vary depending on the type of player for DOA. If you play online looking to play a DOA game against others, I'd say the replay value is there. If you mean for story elements and whatnot, no.

Gameplay on the other hand, it's pretty bad but not entirely awful, they could do better. The gist of problems still exist and gave many players the perception that it's good for a fighting game as a sort of :bigbrain: into looking on testing their mindset and skill portion, if I have to give DOA props is that they'll find someway to make you get addicted no matter how low tier a game is, not many fighting games can do that. At the same time, it's only the vanilla version of that game so there's room for improvement.

 

[Napoleon]

Thank you !

That's a lot better
