That's the plan.

A different motion capture artist did Hitomi's animations. Ein's animations have been carried over from 2:Hardcore on the PS2 with upgrades as they've changed strings and added new stuff.

To everyone here: I'm looking at doing a tournament in Yuba City, possibly in mid-October. Normally I'd look into doing it in Sacramento, but because the venue I have here (the internet & game lounge that I play at) has five 360's, it was a no-brainer to do it here. I'm also going to be doing...

As was said above: No, they don't. Yes, they have a similar style, but their movelist and animations are COMPLETELY different. The development team that worked on NG3 was a different group of people inside Team Ninja from the Dead or Alive development team.

Look for stuff over the weekend. The Team Ninja twitter posted a deal with another tournament against Dengeki staffers, this time with the bikini costumes.

Lei's 236P at HIN was a high and mid sabaki. I was doing it a number of times in free play outside of the tournament.

It's getting a midnight release because FIFA 13 comes out the same day (and is getting a midnight release, along with the new WOW expansion), and by Gamestop policy, they can sell other games that release that day at midnight.

I play pad. It's weird, I grew up playing on stick, and played TONS of Tekken 3 on stick (There was a cabinet at a convenience store on my way to the middle school I went to, and I could swear I played it almost every day), but now it's just so... foreign. I tried to play DOA 5 at HIN on...

Well, that just means all the Lei player has to do is 3P+K and you're getting taken for HCH damage at full launch height. I found a number of people doing that at HIN. I'm a bit surprised I'm not on that list, lol. I've been playing Lei as my main since DOA 2 Hardcore on the PS2. :P

That's the route I'm taking with Helena. I did the same for Leifang when the balance video came out showing that she had a tough time doing 15% damage on high-counter, and was pleasantly rewarded when I played her at HIN. Helena could EASILY be the same way, I mean, outside of the videos that...

No, but that's how this game, and Leifang, for that matter, plays; you have enough options to not have to guess every single time and press the issue and leave your opponent grasping for strings to hold.

No, but the mixup afterwards is good enough. You mis-read or mis-time a hold? I throw you with her 236F+P, 6F+P, 44F+P combo throw, or I launch you with P+K and take you for 4-5 hits and 15%.

Bass is the same way; he's a bit slower than Akira, but he's so guard break heavy that it's frustrating. You get hit with GB and you sidestep right into a throw. I'm assuming Akira's sorta going to be the same way, I dunno, there wasn't really an Akira player at HIN, at least, one that I...

Bingo. We already knew that Akira and Sarah are good coming from VF; CrazySteady using Sarah like a beast at HIN showed that she's going to be a force when the game drops.

Wait, what? I hope that's not a REALLY fucking broad accusation, because I hate that shit.

Lisa was never black to begin with, IIRC, if that's what you're thinking. I was always under the assumption she was just really tan.

I sit with an A- right now, though in DOA2U I had an S rank, and that came with a TON of play time with friends online. I don't have that much time now, and my rank (and play) shows that. :(

You mentioned future tournaments, and I said this to AP, Renarism, and I believe I mentioned it to Majestic Blue - I'm planning on doing an online tournament the weekend the game comes out, mostly to test the online tournament viability, as nothing's been mentioned about the game's netcode thus...
