    Using Online Tournaments to push Offline Events?

    Some people will refuse to travel no matter what you do. But some players (particularly newer ones) do benefit from online tournaments as a way to build the confidence to go and transition to offline play. Then, there are some people who maybe have the willingness to travel, but only have the...

    Using Online Tournaments to push Offline Events?

    Serious, or not, online tournaments should still happen with DOA, especially while the community is small and scattered. If, or when, the community is big enough to where offline tournaments around the country can regularly draw like 16-32+ heads, then offline tournaments can be made the main...

    Using Online Tournaments to push Offline Events?

    Having a list of potential commentators for the game able and ready to go DAY ONE (or as early as possible) will only help DOA5 to be taken seriously. We know DOA5 is coming, so there is NO POINT between now and release that is "too soon" to plan for this sort of thing. IMO, there should be...

    Does the amount of cash prize really help the tournament scene?

    Personally, I like the change in the character models as it only helps the game be taken more seriously as a fighting game, and not continue to be seen as the titty fighter.

    New Doa 5 Characters

    Before you are so quick to trash the idea, take BlackDragon's addition into consideration, with the idea of Parkour being effectively mixed with another style in order to provide a character with a viable fighting repertoire. The Parkour elements would be there to really serve as an interesting...

    Dead or Alive competitive commentary

    Rip and QDogg are probably the best Tekken commentators I've heard. Then there's Aris who is HILARIOUS on anything he commentates on (Tekken, MK, SC, etc).

    New Doa 5 Characters

    I support any idea that makes a Parkour specialist viable in the game.

    Dead or Alive competitive commentary

    IMO, if you're going to reference other events when talking about commentary teams, you might as well reference those that relate DIRECTLY to what you are trying to setup (ie. Game Tournament Commentary). While pro sports like Boxing, MMA, Football, Wrestling (might as well add that, too), etc...

    New Doa 5 Characters

    Personally, I'd like to see a Parkour specialist in the game, and think it could work with DOA better than any other 3D fighter! Plus, such a style can allow for new mechanics to be added to the game to accommodate for the character's ability to avoid environmental damage, and perform certain...

    Does it even matter really whether the "starting point" was 3.1, 4, or D? Regardless of the starting point, aren't all points relevant which discuss features that (would) work well in a DOA game? With that said, and because I'm not sure if this post was seen or overlooked by the majority of...

    Does the amount of cash prize really help the tournament scene?

    I like how we now know DOA5 is coming, and back when I made the posts/suggestions I did in this thread, the idea of a DOA5 was a mere pipedream! I'm still in support of having a point system in place for both online and offline tournaments when DOA5 hits.

    As I mentioned in another thread, I think what could work is for all "normal" holds to be parries, and "expert" holds to be actual d.holds. And to add to that, thinking of Jann Lee's Dragon Kick for instance, I think certain moves in the game with strong knockback properties (sending you...

    Limited Edition Ninja Gaiden 3 Will Include DOA5 Demo

    Demos typically are never up to date with the game code outside of some special event builds (E3, TGS, etc). I remember reading somewhere that game code in demos is typically 3 (or more) months outdated.

    Guessing and "Competitive Advantages"

    Personally, I'd like to see more neutral hit launchers, and attacks with stun properties should only stun on critical hit (no neutral stun BS, that's what frame advantage is for) ... short stun initially, that can then be extended to a longer stun with the next hit (that's not a launcher...

    Rumor: DOA5 release set for Winter 2012?

    December. In time for the holidays.

    Guessing and "Competitive Advantages"

    How about instead of completely removing holds during stun, replace them with zero-damage parries that simply return both players to neutral (no frame advantage)? It could be a way to preserve the quick pace feel of a match, while also not giving free damage to someone in a disadvantaged...

    So hold is the more recognized term? I'll make that edit if that's the case.
