    Team Ninja wants ideas for next patch!

    No ETA. I would like them to improve training mode, esp. recording functionality. I want to be able to make recording start precisely when I start doing something with the dummy. Also, to be able to set recording as training dummy reaction (after guarding, for example). Ability to make dummy...

    [Nov 11, 2012] DOA IN DALLAS 8! (Plano, TX)

    I think people are overreacting and the force tech should remain as it is, for now at least. It looks powerful and good, and I don't like when good things are removed. Players need time to learn how to use it, and what to do against.

    Noob Looking for Advice

    Play the game and don't be afraid to fail. Most importantly, when you are having problems always try to understand what went wrong and how you can improve. If there's a lot of problems, just pick some and think about them, ask here somewhere, etc. Concentrate on those select things during...

    Grand finals were super intense.

    D.I.D. 8: Aftermath

    It also may be extra difficult to win against hard working Helena. It's not one-sided. I didn't put words in their mouths. I said that Helena is not to be considered non-tournament-viable based on imagination alone, that's it. I don't know if anyone actually mean that or not.

    D.I.D. 8: Aftermath

    Even a perfectly balanced game will have low tiers, because of the nature of tier lists. You cannot call Helena non tournament viable if she wins tournaments or ends up on top. Imaginary tournaments, where Helena loses to everyone, are not relevant compared to real tournaments. P.S. In SC5...

    Team Ninja wants ideas for next patch!

    I think it is not always the best option. In some situations it may be useful. For example, if her ground chain will kill you then you better break it and try to deal with offense. You were put in unfavourable situation. Don't expect to always turn the tides with one correct guess. For...

    Team Ninja wants ideas for next patch!

    Don't break the grab if you think it will end up worse. Sounds smarter then breaking grab just for the sake of it. If she grabbed you it is you who screwed up, and she is being rewarded for landing a grab.

    Help on how to defend properly in DOA5

    That's a deep topic, and not even sure where to start. OK, first, you cannot react to everything you may have to deal with. Some things are reactable only when anticipated. Many good low starters are slow enough to be blocked/dodged/countered on reaction when you anticipate them. Usual 2K is not...

    Team Ninja wants ideas for next patch!

    Why shouldn't it? I think that's the point: you either sacrifice health or stand up immediately with disadvantage.

    Dealing with Stun Abuse

    Not sure what you mean here. Anyway, you don't just hold out of nowhere, you should hold on anticipation. And what complains are you talking about? Complains about holds rarely mean much; one can hold as much as they want, it will only make them killed faster. Yes, you need to know...

    Dealing with Stun Abuse

    I meant attacks that stun initially on normal/counter hit. Jabs extend stun a lot and very useful in stun combos with starters that give short stun, e.g. +13. Sometimes it is the only option to extend stun, which is why with anticipation this can be used to avoid combo extension by high/low...

    Dealing with Stun Abuse

    Some tips. Look for ways to avoid getting stunned. Of course that's not that simple. Moves that are easier to land usually do small amount of stun. For example, a fast 13 frame knee does only 13 frames of critical stun. There could be not many things that one can follow up with, and you...

    You all need to make sure you understand what is going on before asking Team Ninja for nerfs/buffs.

    Both games had their competitor passes sold out. MK9 has 96 and TTT2 64 spots allotted at the Dallas event.

    do u think its possible for a guy with no frame advantage to beat a frame head?

    You don't have to study frame data to win. But it helps. Frame data makes things easily measurable/comparable, makes communication with other players easier. "-6 on block" is very simple to understand and communicate.

    Team Ninja wants ideas for next patch!

    With Japanese voices on she says 花は桜木人は武士 ("hana wa sakuragi, hito wa bushi"). Which is a verse of poet Ikkyū (1394–1481). It means "As the cherry blossom is first among flowers, so is the warrior first among men". Moreover she has beautiful voice of a prominent voice actor (see credits)...

    Dead or Alive 5 Ships over 500k in first month

    I too think those are very decent sales for the first month. Considering all the other games released and coming up. Interestingly, DoA5 and TTT2 had comparable first week sales in Japan (on PS3): [PS3] Tekken Tag Tournament 2 (Namco Bandai, 09/13/12) – 62,630 [PS3] Dead or Alive 5 (Tecmo...
