I didn't forget VF, I specifically excluded it because it's not played on a global level for other reasons.

Mixups do not raise the skill ceiling. Spacing does. If you look at any decent competitive 3D fighter, the ones that get killed the fastest are the ones where spacing is made irrelevant or butchered. The large health bar makes spacing in DOA ultimately irrelevant, because most of the damage...

No, sportsmanship nearly always prevails offline. Popoffs are rare, but funny. Obviously someone isn't going to just record a bunch of footage of two guys shaking hands at a tournament since thats already what is expected to happen. Popoffs are always more interesting when they happen, so thats...

Very, very few.

Hell, I haven't even unlocked the ones that are available on the disc.

I'm going to keep this short, so this doesn't go on much further. The truth does its job wherever it's offered. If it helps someone, good. If it hurts someone, good. It is neither my fault, nor my problem when it effects somebody negatively. That's between their choices and God, as far as I'm...

When a person loses a team based game, they usually silently mutter to themselves that they only lost because their team sucked and it couldn't be helped. I find this is the primary reason team games/sports are as popular as they are, because it puts gives people a security barrier to guard...

Yeaaaaaa this isn't happening, sorry.

Problem isolated. I prefer the term "blunt" over evil, but I've been interpreted as such by many. Occasionally also been called arrogant, though thats primarily because it is public standard to compromise on a subject you disagree on and find common ground, even if there is none. I choose...

It's much harder for Bass to land a strike. Close to impossible, actually, if someone is actually playing DOA like a real fighting game and reacting to his telegraphed lows while respecting the frame data of his mids. Of course it happens all the time because, as I said, everybody is used to...

Normal allows you to rush down without fear of repercussion. On smallest you can make your opponent too scared to try anything braindead. It sounds to me like you're trying to play the on smallest with the same exact mentality as on normal, and it's pissing you off because its like shoving...

What is the purpose of a competitive game? Again, why do you believe you should stand a chance if I am a better player?

Is this an assumption on your part? Because I don't and I'm pretty sure nobody else does either.

I'm firmly in the same camp, so what else can I say about people who aren't? They call me crazy and say the game plays like shit on smallest, but the game has had that life setting as the standard for every game thus far so that isn't really an argument. And I can call them out on their...

Apparently the HALO 4 competitive community hates its own game more than the DOA 5 community does. That's... interesting.

Jann Lee kills me in 2 guesses on normal. Jann lee kills me in 2 guesses on smallest. I can kill him with fewer guesses on smallest, however. He actually suffers a disadvantage because of that. It just -looks- scary seeing him take all of that lifebar.

I had considered to opt for a change in standard at some point IF the majority of individuals preferred it and there was enough support to do so. The purpose of this thread was simply to test its viability and see what people thought about the setting. From this test, some of us have determined...

My own reasoning would be that it's because people are pussies.

Every time I host a room on normal health no one joins, either. I believe you've said that already.

Ahahaha I just spent all night trying to make Bayman P+K land on normal hit. I actually pulled it off a few times! Oh man...
