Anyone else going to play through the entire story mode before anything else?

[Doug Nguyen]

1. Story mode in Japanese.
2. Training mode so i can beat A players online to rank up faster.
3. Try to unlock Alpha maybe.
4. Play non ranked online to get the hang of things.
5. Ranked online
6. Maybe Story mode in english if it was good the first time.

The first thing I play to do is training mode to text out some of the characters. From there I may do the story.

[Goro Hazuki]

Step 1: Find out how to unlock Akira
Step 2: Unlock Akira
Then story/training/online/etc... basically bask in all the awesome of DOA5.

I'll go into the options first and set everything up how I want it. Burn in Hell English VAs. Then I'll do whatever is necessary to unlock some characters. Lots of training will no doubt be present as well. I'll certainly play some (maybe all) of the story on day one at some point. You probably have to to unlock something anyway.

 

[virtuaPAI]

I will be playing the story mode, than I will be playing every other mode to unlock my costumes.

I'll first go to the sound test and listen to the music. Then I'll play through the story mode and unlock stuff.

 

[TRI Mike]

If my characters are unlocked I'll just go to training and online versus with them first.

I'm willing to bet a lot of titles will be locked away to online only. So good luck with that order.

I'm just going with the DOA5 main site. It's only mentioned titles as being tied to bonus missions in story mode.
