No at all. At first when i saw it i didnt like it but now its always on.

Have people been saying that they are? I haven't heard any feedback on it at all, positive or negative.

most of the high level doa players say that the hit effects are distracting..
it's not distracting for me but maybe it's because my skill in fighting games is average at best..

Speaking of distractions, choco who the hell is the woman in your avatar?

They are distracting, sometimes I'm even too busy looking at the hitsparks to realize what's happening in the match. They look cool and I'd have them on to spectate or watch replays but they are a huge distraction in-game.

not in the least bit.

I turned them off when I got the game, but now I actually play with them. So no their not distracting imo

 

[Fastlane]

Not distracting to me, barely even notice them half the time.

That small zoom when a critical stun is initiated help me concentrate a bit more.

Christie's "effects" are distracting... I'd hit it.

I have it on primarily for cosmetics. Got used to it in DOAD and makes the game look pretty. Sure, it was distracting at first because one is used to no effects for countless previous DOA titles. I predetermine the directional attributes to strikes and strings by whole character movement and not just their fists/feet.

Not to mention getting a CB with effects on makes is oh so gratifying.

Sounds like something hard to pull off with Hayate.

I refuse to use it. I also had it disabled in the alpha demo. I really just don't care for it. It's bad enough that Tekken goes overboard with it. LOL @ Awesmic.

 

[Darrell]

Ohh!! The chick from Lovely Bones and Hanna, right?

 

[The Faceless Master]

i turned them off immediately when i first played the game. i haven't seen the hit effects since the demo.
