    The DOA5U "Casual" thread. ^__^

    It's alright, I guess. I think at this point Helena and Zack have earned a high-visibility spot with the ninjas (never mind the inherent contradiction there), along with the newbies/returning fighters. Time will tell if Rig and Mila can earn more publicity.

    Poll: Should DOA feature a guest Tekken character(s)?

    Yes, but DOA and VF play much closer than DOA and Tekken. See any FGC. We all have our extremists.

    Gore in DOA?

    I'm alright with the concept of bruising/minor visible injuries. If you augmented the win poses to reflect your 'damage', it would provide that extra level of realism. Of course, like the dirt and sweat and jiggle, you could toggle it. For example, Hitomi wins easily, you'd get "My fists are...

    Poll: Should DOA feature a guest Tekken character(s)?

    I'm gonna say no, but only because of general mechanical differences. If they somehow decided to do a crossover deal (TKxDOA and DOAxTK), which would force the Tekken characters to play by our rules... then I'm game. Then again, SFxTK became... well, SFxTK.

    What are your favorite throws in DoA5?

    Any 3-stage grab. All of them are appropriately awesome. Mila and Leon's takedowns. Nothing quite as satisfying as just laying in on their grounded asses. Kasumi's Oboro, 4T, and to back 4T. Rig's 66T. That is just brutal. Bass/Tina's hammer throws. Special mention to Kasumi/Ayane tag throws...

    Well... damn. Guess Brad's my man until I get a hold of the new fighters.

    Ninja Gaiden 4 - Where should the story go?

    Agreed. Ryu has been the face of Ninja Gaiden since it's creation. That won't ever change. I do like the notion of a supporting cast, though. I realize people don't like dropping out of Ryu's story to play as Ayane/anyone else mid-story, but I felt bad about Kasumi getting story-shafted in RE...

    Hell, I don't even know if the JoJo's anime can get licensed and localized, dubbed or not. Maybe if Funimation was able to sling around enough cash or Aniplex did their usual...

    Then I suppose you'll have to wait until next week. Just like us.

    Kinda cool to read. Nice to pick the brains of the DOA elite. Here's hoping to more interviews! Also, bold is better.

    Ninja Gaiden 4 - Where should the story go?

    ^^ I assume this was fixed in RE. I never played 3.

    Ninja Gaiden 4 - Where should the story go?

    First off, Ryu IS Ninja Gaiden. Replace him and we'll end up with DMC4's early criticism all over again. I think the best you could ever get is if you had a game exploring Joe's backstory. Secondly, I'm not against metered Ninpo. I am against the meter being locked depending on your chosen...

    I believe this sums up our reaction nicely: I'm especially liking the idea of Tag Survival and Team Battle.

    Hot DOA Guy/Gal Discussion thread.

    Ryu is voiced by the manly Troy Baker and kicks 1200 kinds of ass in his own series AND in DOA. Hayate is voiced by the boyish Yuri Lowenthal and gets captured by RIG. F**king Rig. Yeah, it's not that surprising.

    Which new DOA5U character do you think will fare better than the rest?

    Their frame data mostly gives them an edge. However, within DOA's mechanics, they're quite a bit trickier to use than the DOA characters, which is why so few VF characters are seen in tourneys or Top 8. If Jacky plays anything like Jann Lee, though, we're in for a rough first month or two. VF...

    Which new DOA5U character do you think will fare better than the rest?

    Considering DOA5 is my first step into the franchise, I can't say anything about Spartan. Also, I said she'd be strong, probably in the A-tier range. I also said that she wouldn't be seen a lot in tournaments unless she's extremely good.

    Which new DOA5U character do you think will fare better than the rest?

    Jacky is a VF character. Even if his neutral parry is removed/made a hold, he will be a force to be reckoned with. Rachel... I can see her being a strong option, but unless the system's changed more than people are saying, she won't see as much use in high-level play. Momiji will likely be...

    Look carefully at 20 secs. She actually hits the air behind Julia and shatters her spine. Must be them latent Kazama powers.

    Hot DOA Guy/Gal Discussion thread.

    No clue. The artist just did it to try it out. I prefer her brown eyes. Still, that alt.hair color idea would let people who want brunette Tina play her as a brunette. It's not like she gets hair options, anyways.
