    Fair enough. lol I suppose in tournaments, though, I just feel like the player capable of playing multiple characters at a competitive level will have an advantage over a single-character specialist, as he/she is able to approach the match with different looks. I agree that finding a...

    The way DOA5 is shaping up, counter picks could come to play some role. Granted, it will still not be as pronounced as in other fighters. But elements should be there to distinguish variety between characters in the style of play they excel at. EX. Some characters would excel at applying...

    IGN Pro League DOA5 Pro Gaming Tournament

    ^ What CW said!! Plus, you seem to be forgetting that attacks that either lift, knock, or sweep the opponent off his/her feet cause stuns that CAN'T be held out of. So, in the situations you are talking about where the opponent is whiffing holds, you either THROW them, or you use an attack...

    What if?? They have more characters?

    Wild speculations and dream scenarios are natural and common following an epic reveal. There's nothing wrong with that, as that is just a part of the kind of excitement the reveal is intended to generate. It gets people interested, and talking about the possibilities. Just like people are now...

    What if?? They have more characters?

    Another instance that reiterates the point I'm making about leaks vs HYPE.

    What if?? They have more characters?

    Then you, too, did not catch what is being referred to. I'm not saying there isn't excitement in the air in anticipation of seeing the leaked characters in action, I'm saying the leak killed the RUSH that should've been there for the reveal. Take the Sarah reveal ... ... instead of...

    What if?? They have more characters?

    It seems you misunderstood what's being referred to. I'm not saying leaks kill all hype altogether, I'm saying leaks kill the hype that official reveals are intended to generate. This isn't about losing anticipation of the hands-on experience, this is more like knowing Thanos gets revealed...

    DOA5 E3 Version Q&A

    This just occurred to me, and is actually a question regarding the IPL events, themselves, moreso than the E3 build of the game. As these events progress, will they feature more updated builds of the game month-to-month, or will they all just feature the E3 build?

    What if?? They have more characters?

    Such is the problem with significant leaks/spoilers. It essentially kills people's potential excitement about mere POSSIBILITIES of things, and also kills potential hype that could/SHOULD be generated by official trailer reveals. EX: The Sarah reveal in the E3 DOA5 trailer should been a...

    IGN Pro League DOA5 Pro Gaming Tournament

    I've only watched a small portion of the Day 1 stream so far, but I think it was said these rounds of pool play are single-elim (with the Top 2 of each of the 4 pools advancing) ... whereas the Top 8 section is double-elim. In that case, Kayane would need to go undefeated through pools in order...

    The E3 General Thread (2012)

    E3, partically, E3 press conferences, is all about generating press. Mainly, generating more press (positive press) than direct competitors. This, in turn, typically leads to generating more profits down the road, which puts nicer looking numbers on the quarterly/yearly earnings sheets that...

    Sony ran clips of DOA5, Microsoft didn't (unless I blinked and missed). I guess Microsoft is too busy pushing COD, Halo, Gears, and Kinect stuff to care about the "little fighting game people".

    The E3 General Thread (2012)

    You guys have to realize, too, that these press conferences are also done for stockholders, who like to see the companies showing off a wide portfolio of stuff (including the kids stuff) that will generate press that will (in their hopeful minds) drive up stock worth. This is not just for the...
