The point isn't to make people happy. You toss everyone together, see who wants to pony up for better seats, just like at concerts, and the rest sorts itself out via assigned seating, preferably by registration date. Not that complicated and it's a lot better than the general chaos that ensues...

Neither does he.

The same way they do at concerts: VIPs up front (judges, people in finals, organizers, et al) and the rest based on a tiered pay structure. Evo has gotten to the point where paying for priority seating should be viable.

What Team NINJA is saying now and what they'll be able to spare equipment and time for that close to release may be different. I'm personally hoping for a release with all characters announced up to that point. That'd be great. But I understand how the industry works and it's not necessarily a...

Factor in two other players, random hazards, and area of effect attacks and you won't see combos like that really ever. Any hit knocks you out of whatever action you're doing. This game looks phenomenal on paper. In practice, not so much.

The layout of the ballroom is such that there's no way, regardless of which venue they choose, to ensure every section can see as well as the rest. Doing it by region would invariably piss people off. Tenren, yeah they could do that, but people are douchebags and would just bring shit in...

You've never been to Evo, have you? People police themselves pretty well and that includes their immediate area. People are incredibly protective of their seats and most people were making pacts right away in the morning. Until the end of the night when I brought a few of my friends up because I...

That's probably true but historically a large amount of DoA costumes were color swaps as well. Kasumi and Lei-Fang in particular.

I want Ryu's shadow clones back in the game. They were robbed in DoA4! ROBBED!

No character-specific announcements regarding the build have been made. It may be a near-final release but they may give us a slightly older build. We'll have to wait and see. Regardless we're looking at a final build a month later so it's all good.

To Scott: character customization isn't as big a draw as you might think. People like to see the bullet point on the box but more often than not you see normal characters online and T6 was a big show of that. SCV had quite a bit more customization online but still I was seeing more normal...

That's more than a little fatalistic. DoA has a relatively dedicated built-in fanbase that will buy it day one just because it's a DoA game. That coupled with the fact that TTT2 will NOT be very noob-friendly at all (I got absolutely bodied by the people playing at Evo and I knew what I was...

The marketing is brilliant from Bamco. You can't deny that they know exactly how to pitch TTT2U as the best fighter launching in September. They're basically firing a shot over the DoA5's bow every single time a marketing angle is taken by TK.Oh, you're giving away bikini DLC in your CE? We're...

What I honestly want to see happen is some sort of assigned seating for finals day. We're paying to register and, at least this year, only registered players got to be in the hall on Sunday. Kill multiple birds with one stone and have people in assigned seating. Then you know who's leaving shit...

You can't afford the flight? If you can make it out there the rest can be taken care of or helped with, at the least. PM me if you don't want to chat about it in the thread.

What I wrote is a little unclear if taken out of context (i.e. my previous post saying I prefer the 360) so I'll say that my primary console will still be 360. There is just a chance some tournaments will run on PS3 and that's what I'd like to be prepared for.

I love my Izuna! I want to be able to Izuna off of canned strings, normal holds, hi-counter holds, and even manually off of a throw! ...oh wait... :cool:

All of the consoles can fail. The 360S models have a red dot of death now it's just not very common. The failure rate is significantly lower than it used to be but it is still a piece of consumer electronics. I've actually purchased a CE for both consoles now so I can play either one should...

I'm all for that stupid ass kick becoming holdable again. It was a bitch to deal with lol. And we were both playing relatively safe, all things considered, though I'm going to re-iterate Rikuto's point that neither of us were really trying all that hard to showcase 'high-level play,' though it...

I've never found them fun, short of the first couple SamSho games. Fatal Fury, Garou, KoF...I've tried them all at various points and just never got into them. Couldn't explain why I don't like them but I just don't. Could be that I'm a pretty sore loser and I'm terrible at them. That's a...
