Shame. I seem to recall Hayashi saying he wouldn't do this. But here we are....

Yup. Right now, the only way to "opt out" is to do a fast low sweep or some such, and those options really aren't going to do a significant amount of damage in the long run. If you do nothing though, hayate effectively has you under lockdown. He can just pick you apart.

Alright, I did list that as an option so let's explore the cons of it for a moment. Let's assume for a moment that grapplers are actually very viable in DOA 5, and being high-counter thrown is going to result in at least 50% from some of them, maybe closer to death with some of the...

It's a good step tool and I am very much against destroying step tools. They can't cover every situation though, and they cant be monopolized in effectiveness by one person. That said, it needs limitations and currently it has too much utility. I'm not one to stop using a winning tactic, but...

I'm not really a hayate player so I wasn't playing hayate the way anyone intended. I was just mashing buttons to see what stuff did half the time. When I found something with a curious property I would spend the rest of the match trying to use it regardless of whether or not it would get me...

It was pretty bad. But yea, gravity works wierd with hayate now and I got tired of trying to figure out consistent combos. I also really didnt care enough to look up any that other people have discovered since the game is pretty much just lulz right now. The entire session was basically just...

You can't make a tier list for something that isn't being played competitively. It's impossible.

Just shorten the active window, and kill it from stun. That's all that needs to happen. If you added any other kind of meter mechanic into the game it would need a lot more time to be thoroughly developed. Time which, unfortunately, is no longer on our side. Because honestly, if you've got...

So basically, he's saying "yo dawg, it's cool. i've got charts." But no, no it is not... It doesn't matter if a person is at a disadvantage for spamming 3 point holds often. Someone only has to do it once to piss me off. It's too easy and gets you out of too much. The damage is an...

I see what you did there.

First of all Cyber, what exactly are you going for with this? What I mean by that is, If you're getting into this just so you have something to record with, you're doing really good with what you have now. If you're going for ridiculously super-high quality to the point where it's pretty much...

It's nice that he is paying attention at least.

When you walk into a bar, you immediately zone in on a couple people inparticular you'd probably wouldn't mind trying to start a conversation with. Does this mean you're in a bar full of ugly people?

So he's god tier?

That is certainly not the question I asked, and the answer isn't true either. The windows are absolutely massive in the alpha and the frame differences between advanced and normal holds are minuscule at best. My original question was if team ninja would consider getting rid of holds altogether...

One of the downfalls to action/adventure games, and they did in fact rectify that error after the original ninja gaiden's release. If you always go for the P/K cliffhanger though, you're getting less damage than previous DOA games. So either way you are potentially being punished. Well...

Yea I wonder if this means Bayman is going back to grappler status or if he's going to continue being a counter monkey. I suppose they could make him good with both throws and holds, but that would put him on theoretically even footing with busa and that would be sacrilege.

It breaks the pace of the combat, that's the problem with it. In the case of powerblows its kind of irrelevant because you will never get these off in a real match with a decent human. It is incredibly out of place in the case of cliff hangers though, as the animations for the cliffhanger do not...

I've never played it. Heard it was a pretty good game. Are you a pro? Can you show me how to play Bayman?

So basically what you're saying is that you ignore people if they approach you, but you'll happily take up a spot in someones room to chat?
