    The DOA5U "Casual" thread. ^__^

    I'm looking at all the games listed for the UFGT10 event this weekend, and it doesn't look like DoA5U is even there despite it being a rather huge amount of games present. Team Ninja really needs to work on the franchise's reputation so it can get some more people playing at actual tournaments.

    Fine by me, I can't do anything with it. It was just something I wanted to see. It originally came from when I was brainstorming about how Leon could be brought back into the story. I'd already came up with the Anastasia stuff (and was going to use it as the excuse to bring back Tengu and...

    I don't particularly think Nicole has a chance (her ownership status is very murky, to the point where they'd be better off skirting the issue by creating a similar character instead of trying to use the original...which they technically already have done in terms of her moveset), but I don't...

    Really? Why is Marie Rose fighting? Nicole is doing it in order to keep Nassau Station and the technology aboard it a secret. How did Marie Rose learn to fight? Nicole was abducted at six-years-old by a government program and put through rigorous training and genetic modification. What was...

    Technically this is not true (also, just as bad as the close-mindedness that David Gregg was calling out Argentus for in post #19527). We know Nicole is a 6'8 Filipino woman who likes anime and competitive shooting, and that her favorite food is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halo-halo (a...

    I'm still mostly against Brand New Characters as DLC for DoA5U (though they're a better choice than more Guest Characters). Save them for DoA6 where they can actually be fleshed out. Use the DLC to bring back the missing characters (ie. Tengu, Raidou), or promote DoA/NG NPCs to playable...

    ...it really was just a stupid trailer announcing tournament dates that were already announced (for reference: http://tfctournament.com/road-to-tfc2/ ) Bad form, Team Ninja.

    Hopefully it wasn't that silly trailer announcing tournament dates that were already announced two weeks ago.

    East Coast Throwdown has the Announcements scheduled in ten minutes on http://www.twitch.tv/teamsp00ky (though if Killer Instinct runs late, it may start later) Announcements are scheduled to last for 30 minutes, and Team Ninja is probably not the only people announcing stuff, so who knows...

    I still think Isabella would be the best pick if we had to get one of the Mistresses, since she has a unique visual style and isn't another Asian or American woman. Of course, we know nothing about her, and DLC characters apparently have very little story released about them, so that would kind...

    I think my top three characters for bringing to DoA from NG are: 1. Irene 2. Theodore 3. Elizabet (Human form, maybe briefly transform into demon form for Power Blow or something) Though I also wouldn't mind Murai, Jo Hayabusa (maybe have him play more like DoA2U/3 Hayabusa with the handstand...

    Solution: Rio gets the spot, but Niki and Shiden are hidden on the two Random Icons, accessible by holding two triggers when you pick that spot. But unlike Dimensions, it pulls up a costume selection for them when you do this, instead of limiting them to 3 costumes with alternate button presses...

    Win/lose/intro quotes in Japanese?

    Marie Rose confirmed to be Tengu's daughter. ;)

    I'd rather not have any more guest characters in this iteration of the game, and I definitely don't want to pay $6 for one. Especially when the slot could instead be used for someone that could be a permanent part of the DoA/NG universe.

    News Is this fake?

    If you fiddle with your brightness/contrast, it's actually some object that is sitting in front of the screen, and light from the screen is reflecting off of it. It actually extends down well below the screen. I'm not completely sure what the object is, but I think it's a plastic water bottle...

    Finishing the game off perfectly means having the entire cast back. Especially since Omega was the final boss of DoA3 (which was a lot of people's first DoA game due to the giant advertising push Microsoft gave it to promote the XBox) but he has only gotten to be playable on a handheld. I'd...

    On the grand scheme of things, as long as a character plays differently (even if there moveset is a variant of someone else's like with Bayman/Leon) they added roughly the same amount of new gameplay to the game so it doesn't matter if you call their fighting style Hapkido or Krav Maga or what...

    DoA5 has already added Mila, Rig, and Marie Rose as brand new characters (not counting Phase-4 since she's basically Kasumi-Alpha with some added flair). Then they also brought over Momiji and Rachel from NG. Plus technically the four VF characters, but they're guests. That's plenty of new...

    I hope there are no entirely brand new characters. Just bring back the missing characters and take some of the NPCs (from both DoA and NG, basically people who are part of the universe and who's story we already know) and promote them to playable. Save the entirely new characters for DoA6 where...

    Wasn't Code Chronos supposed to be an action game like the 3D Ninja Gaidens but starring other DoA characters instead of Ryu? Granted, it was probably just going to star Kasumi or Hayate instead. For branching out to other genres, they could try a Hitman/Splinter Cell style game starring...
