Does anyone know if we'll be able to give VF characters themes? You weren't able to on the Vita version which is the only reason why I ask. I was stuck listening to the stage bgm when I versed one of them. :(
You Can on the vita. I have akira set to mila's theme right now.

By the way as a die-hard rocky fan I have to say that her theme is Not a rocky-like theme. I don't see what people are hearing to think that. Saying it sounds like a cartoon theme seems closer. Doesn't stop me from enjoying it though.

Too much synthesizer in Mila's theme for me to really enjoy it. More guitar and less synthesizer and I would be okay with it. If the title of the song were changed to something else I would be happier with it ("Roar of the Crowd" in an MMA environment does not equal silly synthesizers). It kinda fits the whole DOA vibe but it is still pretty out of place compared to just about every other song (like Russian Roulette. Seriously, wtf. I never would have imagined that was Bayman's song).

Rig's theme seems to fit him better than Mila's does (oil rig worker to go with the "mechanical" sounds, mysterious dude with the deeper tones). Mila may be a happy-go-lucky hard working extravert but no, she is also an MMA fighter. MMA events are loud, synthesizers are not considered loud enough for loud events except in the song Frankenstein. As a DOA song "Roar of the Crowd" is good, as Mila's theme not so much.

Back on the music track, everybody is going back to DOA2 (even the 3 and up characters, dammit I will make it work) and the desert stage is getting Ultimate Weapon. Now I just get to hope for Zack's and Bass' old shouts.

i'm not sure what to think of rachel's theme. it sounds cool in some areas, but just seems to be a bit all over the place.

i imagine she'll be getting a better "ultimate mix" version of her theme, like momiji.

If they can get that under control that will be one badass theme or/and give us Alma's theme and give all the NG players a heart attack.

would be cool if they gave us the remixed version of Ryu's old NES theme we got in Oroichi

Actually there are three different kind of CE, two semi ones (red Momiji edition and Blue Kasumi edition) and a complete one (the image posted should show the content of the full one).

However I would love to have the cards of DoA5U (also if I would prefer an edition with all the cast in the pictures, not just the female ones + Zack).

I find it odd that DOA1 music is off the table for DOA5U. I distinctly remember Bass' DOA1 theme being used in story mode. Also, Zack's DOA2 remix.

You know what else is awesome? Those remixes from Dimensions. Those were niiiiiice. TN might be looking at those DLC opportunities. lol

But, I'll probably just set everything to DOA4 music and call it a day. I might experiment after a while.

I agree, I would love to have in the game also DoA1 OST and DoAD remixes, also like later paid DLC.

However I'm really glad to see the return of DoA2/3 and 4 themes! :)

Yeah it doesn't feature the poster or the stuff said in their own so I think this is the full one.

Nono. Mila is an MMA PRACTITIONER. She's not like...a regular on UFC or anything. Her fighting style may be officially MMA, but her overall "I wanna be better, and go to the top and fight my idol" attitude is pretty Rocky-ish, so the 80s inspirational music suits her pretty well.

If you don't like the music, that's fine, just pointing out that she's not actually UFC, and her overall theme and fangirlism makes the theme song makes a certain kinda sense.

If it makes you feel any better, I'm sure the other countries' versions of CE won't contain that much stuff.

I want the Dimension themes. I enjoyed the remixes a lot and it would be a shame not to include them. My two favorites were Tina's and Ayane's.

Assuming we get the full soundtracks from DOA2-4, what will you guys be assigning to each character?

I doubt that we are. I'd be really surprised if Tengu's theme and Genra's theme made it in. They absolutely should, but they likely won't.



I'm hoping that we can attach multiple tracks to a character this time and set it to randomly play one of them when when that character is in play. For example, I could set Leon's playlist to include Ultimate Weapon, Red Moon, and Sorrow and whenever I play Leon, one of the those songs will play at random, instead of it always just playing the same one every time.

Even better, I hope we can go classic style and just set it to randomly play any character's theme (from a customized playlist) even if they aren't present.

I'm going to hold out hope that The Fist of Taikyoku Blows Up makes it in. It was originally lei fangs doa1 theme, but was the doa2 theme for L's Castle, so who knows. It's one of my favorite themes.
