Next tournament with Mamba playing we will know how dead (or not) she is.

Thank god. Now we only need the patch to come to Xbox (with 1.03 glitch included I hope). How much better? VF5FS/SC5 better? SSF4AE better? I hope the new online will force people to play honest (defend when at disadvantage, stop mashing strings, etc.)

For the people who have the 1.03 patch on the PS3: Has the online improved? I have an Xbox and hadn't played in a while. I played yesterday and Jesus, I remembered why I stopped playing.

I never really paid attention to open/closed stance until I learnt about Gen Fu's senpu reset. It just adds another level of depth for better players to beat worse players (I'm one of the latter...), which is good

I plan on buying 3.2 soon. 3.0 American version 3.1 Japanese version 3.2 European version (not as good as 3.1 but better than 3.0 it seems)

It is already split: Japanese - DOA4 lovers, Westerners - DOA 3.1 lovers

At this point the best they could do is offer a 1.03 or 1.04 option un the same way you can choose to play ssf4 or ssf4ae.

The problem is not with counters/holds. The problem is with holding from stun and the prevalence of the stun game, which did not begin until DOA4.

I have an Xbox so havent tested the patch. I love the idea of a ground game closer to VF. Not sure about throw breaks at this point though. They'd be great but they seem necessary to punish holds in DOA's system.

They should do what they did with 3: one version for América, one for Japan and one for europe

Why should I waste my hard earnt frame advantage waiting to see if my opponent holds or not? The mechanic (holds in stun) is bad. The arguments used to defend it are bad too.

I'm hapy for skulgirls, just as much as I'm sad for DOA...

Well, removing all defensive holds seems just not DOA. But it's pretty clear that there's something wrong with the stun game in DOA4-5.

I don't think anyone suggested removing defensive holds. Probably just holds in stun. I think DOA 1 was like this. (No holds in stun)

I don't have a PS3, I thought this glitch only affected Sit down stuns and Back turned stuns. So there is no slow escaping at all?!?!?!?!

Honestly, Slow escaping is a dumb mechanic. It basically rewards people for mashing fast. I would remove it completely. Mashing is wrong, right? If you get hit and find yourself at a disadvantage, no way out. Just try not to get hit.

With a 270 lifebar it's not even half of it. I don't see why it is too much. Unscapable damage in DOA. Great. Finally.

I have voted YES and twitted TN about this.

WOW. What about the fastest? At first I didn't understand why there were such fast throws in DOA but now I understand they are kind of a requirement of the system. Making all throws 7 frames max. would be a great hold killer in DOA5.

Well, fuck it. I had 2 weeks to play like a motherfucker because my wife is going to be away with my daughter but I guess my play time will go to vf5fs. Im pissed...
