    Itagaki talks DOA, thrashes DOA: Dimensions

    Personally? Yeah, DOAD is better than DOA4 in some respects. I think the only thing I'd take from it is the 3 point hold system implemented with the DOA4 stun system just was too much. I don't own it anymore so I can't test it out, but I believe that was the first game that made it so sit-down...

    Itagaki talks DOA, thrashes DOA: Dimensions

    DOA3's stun game was not the same as DOA4's. In DOA3 you didn't want to hold since throws were half the speed of DOA4's slowest throws. Throw damage was high in DOA3 if you were caught holding, at the same time you were put into a lot more forced guess situations in DOA3. It would have been a...

    Itagaki talks DOA, thrashes DOA: Dimensions

    He was referring to the concept of following the feedback from a fanbase he didn't really care to utilize. Specifically, targeting the competitive fanbase cost them a lot of players on the casual side. I don't think Itagaki would have ever reached out to the competitive base for as much input as...

    Itagaki talks DOA, thrashes DOA: Dimensions

    Nah, he's the one who went "Company's in the red? Well 3D fighting games are the hot thing in the arcades right now. Let's make a game that's simple with big boobs to help bring in more casual players." Of course, I'm paraphrasing. He did mention it in an interview from long ago. Just briefly...

    Itagaki talks DOA, thrashes DOA: Dimensions

    Itagaki isn't a fan of "fighting games". It was always a struggle to complete the project. However, that being said, not being a fan of a genre can bring in new interpretations on how to improve the genre. But yeah, he's done making fighting games.

    Thanks, didn't notice the typo in the formula. Thank you, and in response to hajin, I think 7-3 is the furthest this game's engine will go. You won't see any 8-2 or 9-1 matchups, but you will see a 7-3. A 7-3 is still very much a viable match-up but it 's an uphill battle for one character.

    The comment is on Itagaki's official FB account as a comment. So I don't know what's "invalid" about it. Unless I'm misunderstanding your reference towards validity.

    It's interesting reading the responses in the GAF thread. You can tell who's a fighter and who isn't.

    From what I understand, the sell and review rate of DOAD is the reason we even have a DOA5. Otherwise, it was going to be the final DOA game.

    If it's a 7-3 matchup in a game where 2 matches wins the set, be sure to win the first two of the three. lol

    Advantage = 6-4 Greater Advantage = 7-3 That's how it is. That's how DBomb responded when asked what characters Leon had advantage over, and which characters he had a greater advantage over on top of that. A 7-3 match-up is still playable and viable. It's when you reach 8-2 that it becomes a...

    Twitch stream of my scrub play against @VirtuaKazama last night. Sorry I'm bad with little Mac as I'm still trying to understand the throw and dodge system. I also had to readjust back to the GC controller. Late in the stream the video glitches up twice temporarily due to some issue when hot...

    I agree with it. He's at a disadvantage on them. Both require him to guess more so than other characters; he has difficulty interrupting their strings due to his speed; he has difficulty landing his non-high-crushing attacks due to each of their evasive properties. Also, in general, their good...

    I expect it to be completely original character. Not a clone of anything.

    Characters Raidou revealed in latest issue of Famitsu!

    Figured I'd analyze the trailer to see what moves were shown off that Raidou looks like he's stolen. Forgive me if I get inputs wrong as I'm not 100% knowledgeable on all character's move notations: Hayabusa's SS :P: Rachel's :P::P::P: (The one that Guard Breaks at -1) Ein's :6::K::K: Hayate's...
