My previous post may have suggested that I thought that there is no luck involved. But yes, there is a portion luck there (as in many other games), just as there are portions of mind games and educated guesses that shouldn't be neglected. The combination of those 3 elements makes it a fun game...

There's a difference between luck Vs. Mind games + educated guesses "Complexifying" may be a strong word, how do you like "subsidizing"? lol But I agree that no other fighting game gives the defender as many options to reverse a mistake as DOA because defensive options is one of DOA's...

U funny...

I'm not gonna boast on how many DOA games I've played, nor how many hours. It's completely irrelevant as to how I enjoy the game. If you did play all of them, then good for you. By coming to this forum I was looking for constructive opinions about the 4pt system, and I did find a few...

Great point Phoenix! I think you guys are really gonna hate me after this lol Sorry I feel like I've been fighting an army lol I'll answer with a question: If Hold damage were significantly decreased, would it make a difference? Therefore, the defender would have 50% chance to do small...

lol Rikuto, you know what? I really love & respect your insight because it is always rational and constructive! (for real, no sarcasm) But am I crazy for believing that a 12.5% chance (in mathematical theory) does not brake the game? If the game were so broken by these odds, how was I able to...

For what it's worth, allow me to clarify: I think the system was broken in the sense that Hold Damage was too high, Hold recovery was too fast, and Hold Active Frames were to long. All those issues seem to have been fixed, or in the process of being fixed by Team Ninja. Now, on the other hand...

Do you mind specifying "as it is"? Do you mean like the DOA5 Alpha demo?

Come on... You know what i mean, Skilletor... How can altering or enriching move sets NOT address the issue you brought up about too many MIDs?

I'd have to disagree. IP Man and Bruce Lee are very distinct. But thanks for using wrestlers to illustrate my point :)

We're talking about increasing damage reasonably. Enough for it to be significant, not to promote 90-100% damage. If the fact that characters have too many MIDs in their move sets is a problem, wouldn't adding more move and combo variations solve the issue? Thanks for the clarification :)...

I'm not sure what you mean, but I'd say increase hit damage, and decrease hold damage. Voila!

Why not just increase damage of hits then? That would largely solve your problem, wouldn't it?

One may come from the other, but I find both styles, signature moves, and characters completely different. Plus, how many versions of Ninjutsu are in DOA? More VF character would definitively be nice! I somehow feel that there might be more than meets the eye :) We might be in for a few...

I've already been through the number game with Rikuto, and I am fully aware of the new odds presented by the 4pt system. However, I feel that most 4pt advocates can't handle the greater challenge within the 3pt system. Am i wrong? Don't get it twisted, all I'm asking is to be convinced by the...

Raasu, there are beautiful things called "Free Cancelling", "Mid-Grabs", "High-Launchers" and "Low-Attacks" (at LEAST 4 options!) that allow you to go around a basic Mid-Holds. If your concern is having too many Mid attacks in move sets, Team Ninja could add extra variations to moves and combos...

Most comments I heard from unhappy NG3 fans had to do with attacking being too easy and not challenging enough. Doesn't that remind you of a similar step taken in the DOA series? Hummmm?

For the time being, Team Ninja's position seems final. But I think there is still room and time for change, or compromise. My order of preference would be: 1) 3pt Basic Holds (with lower damage, decreased active frames, slower recovery on a miss) + 4pt Expet Hold (with greater damage) 2) 3pt...

Yes, TKD & Boxing would be new by DOA standards, but in terms of fighting games, it's kind of a been there-done that thing... Whereas Wing Chun hasn't officially been used in a fighting game yet. (Unless someone in this forum can prove me wrong)

Jann Lee doesn't know what he's got 'til its gone! Donnie Yen scoops Lei Fang and there goes our love triangle lol
