Bad games to Ranked for never having anyone on... I've played it about 3 times for a rank of E!

These rules are fine including banning EOE. It's a fun stage to WATCH with all the falling, but whatever. 3/5 is the ideal format. I still think on Normal life matches go too long, but in a spectator focused even the emphasis will be on finals matches anyway, so there's ways to present...

Not having all the characters on a pre final build select screen doesn't rule anything out. Remember how the select screen changed through different builds of DOA5 before the final.

How about no. You guys are crazy. No nerfs are needed to either of these characters. Some of the other characters need some improvements and the system itself needs a few tweaks. That's it. On OH's, LF is supposed to have them as she is a hybrid character, strikes and grapple/hold. Jann...

Stick still enhances your game no matter how easy you think it is. Crouch dash is just one of the simple things that is fudgy on any pad. But yeah, personal preference. Work around the limitations as best you can

Learn to play on stick and no need to fret about pads.

"for the games present". Don't choke on that GOW avatar, it's okay.

We run all DOA5 tournaments here on 360 for what its worth. People shouldn't assume PS3 dominance as it changes from event to event and EVO appears to be something of an outlier. Mostly it comes down to "community preference" but usually doesn't matter. A good reason to be able to play on...

I'm undecided on Ends of the Earth. It's annoying, but consistent. Its not like the Dinosaur stage in DOA4 which could totally sideswipe you from off screen. As for match counts, as long as Normal life is how it is, sadly 2/3 is better to just get tournaments done on time. I prefer 3/5 as a...

Guys, noone is saying playing online makes you a bad player. Noone is saying you can't improve your skills and become a better player online. But the matches are meaningless, its just practice. Practice is VALUABLE no doubt. But that's all it is. And lets be clear, "meaningless" in terms of...

Great to see a tournament report I was thinking maybe Mr Wah needs some helpers to keep the front page updated? There should definitely be a news post with the results of big tourneys like this as soon as the event is done You can edit in coverage like this

You guys .. THEY ARE NOT "ONLINE PLAYERS" Did they win these tournaments from their couches at home? NO - They got off their asses and went to an event and probably had a great time with other players hanging out in real life. These guys have done GREAT and do NOT prove your misplaced pride...

Except in tennis outdoor is played in stadiums protected from the wind and when it rains they postpone or close the roof. No squirrels, just ball boys.

You're putting the holier than thou reading into it yourself. You deliberately quoted me out of context where I first said fans that only play online still contribute to the community, and what you quoted is where I said but to the WIDER fighting community, and in terms of representing the game...

Exhibition mode is fantastic - we have rows of xboxes at our community venue and only select machines have any characters unlocked. This will be fantastic, it means any free station has everything available for players to try out and that makes it easier for people to try the game at events...

I'll have to get on PSN more often, give us a shout out now and then Good games today in Melb, hopefully the shadowlogic venue get their schedule sorted so we can give people more notice and build a bigger group. Good job Tones on deadly Lisa. Proving she is opposite of suck. Gotta get more...

That statement is elitist. Who defines themselves as an online player and takes pride in it? Who is creating a separation of the two? I don't define myself as an offline player, I'm a fighting game player. As such I want to enjoy playing other people and improve my skills. I realise that...

Its a good thing. IPL will garner more attention from the whole fighting community and that means more crossover interest for DOA.

I don't really know what you guys are talking about... players are players... and meeting players in real life, playing them offline, is just a much better experience. People are friendly and theres good comaraderie at tournaments. There's no clique or conspiracy. There's the simply fact that...

Is it a community if you don't turn up? Is it a family dinner if people don't sit around the table? Sure, online play and posting on forums DOES mean you're contributing to something in the overall community, depending on the value of the contributions. But when it comes to people paying...
