    Gripes with the system

    Hey guys, another noob question here. Don't know where to post, maybe it's system-related so I'll ask here. I'm still trying to learn the game and watching videos I often see this, could somebody care to explain the reason behind it? Ok, here goes: When two players are spacing and suddenly one...

    Wait wait wait..! I'm a noob, please agree amongst yourself now before I get more confused! Can you or can't you tech roll and do a wake up kick from side tech? This makes a HUGE difference!

    DOA5U DOA5U 1.03 Patch

    So basically Rachel, Momiji and Alpha got nerfed and the rest of the cast is untouched? Ok I guess. I don't even no if you're serious or just trolling. You are in fact admitting to 'tier whoring' and proudly presenting that on a forum..? As if the tier lists were the truth and the main factor...

    Kokoro's: Beginner Tutorial (DOA5U)

    Wait.! What..? Can you only brake 'neutral throws' aka T in DOA? You can't brake any other throws, like 6T, 4T, 66T and so on..? Does this apply to every character? Sorry for noob question.

    DOA5 Brad(NanhouDrops) vs Ayane(XDest) Northern Battles #6 GFs Battle #7

    Yes, I just picked up DOA5U a week ago or so. Tried or DOA and fell in love with the fighting game system! Long time Tekken-player though, so I know all about punishers, frames, oki etc etc in fightinggames. I play on PS3 in Europe, and main Sarah Bryant, but someone told me that she isn't...

    DOA5 Brad(NanhouDrops) vs Ayane(XDest) Northern Battles #6 GFs Battle #7

    Ok, thanks for response. I have no clue about the community, I'm just a noob. Didn't trash him, just trying to figure out the whole tier-list discussion thing. If it doesn't even matter in 7-3 match ups, when does it ever matter then?

    The Official Dead or Alive 5 Tier List with Discussion thread

    Sorry guys -just had to; irony incoming: A slightly different thing I love about the tier listing is the letters used to describe the different tiers. It's so arbitrary. It was the same thing in Tekken also. I've seen so many weird tier listings it's starting to lose it's meaning. The...

    DOA5 Brad(NanhouDrops) vs Ayane(XDest) Northern Battles #6 GFs Battle #7

    Isn't Ayane vs Brad Wong like 7-3 matchup? Still the Brad Wong player won? Does that mean the Ayane player was a complete retard or that the tier list is total bullshit?

    Helping Players To Get Better

    Little help, guys! I still don't understand the whole 'hold'-thing... is it important? Does high level player ever actually use it? Is it done reliably in matches? What I'm wondering is: Can you hold EVERY move? Can you hold in the middle of the opponent's string? Because I tried to, but I...

    THE DEAD OR ALIVE 5 TUTORIAL

    Yo Emperor! Amazing tutorials! Thanks for all your time and effort. A noob like me learned a lot by watching these. Could you do a write up about movement and/or the gameplan? What is the main fightingstrategy in DOA? Also, when I look at the moveslist in the game, what does SP behind a move...

    Frame Data

    Thanks, man! I didn't even know about the wiki section!

    Helping Players To Get Better

    Yes, the active frames might be ok to know, so you know for how long your opponent can get hit by the move. And if a opponent whiffs then the recovery frames will tell how punishable it is. Usually if a mov whiffs, it is punishabel by almost every move in Tekken, så people don't care about the...

    Frame Data

    I better ask this question here: Could somebody help me understand the framedata in the games. I know what frames are and what it means that a move is, say +2 on block and so on. But when I do a move the game gives me 3 numbers, like 17 (3) 18. What the hell does that number in the...

    The Official Dead or Alive 5 Tier List with Discussion thread

    Thanks again for all the advice, guys! DOA has a great community I must say! You've been really helpful. As for the tier list discussion, in scientific community they always start early with a hypothesis. Then someone disagrees and argues for their opinion and shows the proof and thus changing...

    The Official Dead or Alive 5 Tier List with Discussion thread

    Thanks for all the info guys! Appreciate it! Coming from Tekken, one of the wierdest thing to me is mixing up the stun strings so the opponent doesn't know what's coming next and thus cannot hold me. In Tekken you usually just have a launcher and pretty much do the exact same combo every time...
