lol. I love how everyone else is smiling or posing for their picture. Then there's Leon's "I don't give a FUCK, just take a picture and get out of my face"

Also, who are the ones on bottom left and bottom right?

Well, my riff with this game is that if you're going to implement a SS mechanic then can it at least be effective? I'm pretty new, but I practice with the move details on and there are so many moves that don't track... but when you're fighting they do? It would make for a more competitive game, like VF or Tekken. People would have to learn to use tracking moves when they think they're opponent will SS. I think the only time SS is effective is when someone is running at you with an unblockable or something, I don't know.

Not a Wesley Snipes fan, I take it? Being based off an existing person doesn't preclude a character from being "respectable". There are plenty of them of many different ethnicities.


Currently, the Brazilian census has 5 different racial categories. One of them being "black". Another one being "brown" but that seems to be for all intents and purposes, "black" based on colloquial grouping (from what I'm reading. I don't live in Brazil). So, to say someone is "Brazilian" is as helpful in a race conversation as saying someone is "American".


True. Though in Zeo's first post, he had "male" in parentheses. So, before anyone gets started on this can of worms, I'm just gonna shut it down.

Based on the American usage of the term "Black"...



...Lisa is black. She is. There's no getting around it. Just accept it. Somebody can try to say "But, Hispanic and Lucha Libre and Spanish names and..." Doesn't matter. Being Hispanic doesn't stop you from being black. Lisa's black. Even if she was made slightly lighter (though I would say just less cartoonish looking) than in DOA4. And you know why? Because racial classification was BS from its inception. Completely. It's all just based upon how youkind of look compared to other people. Same with Halle Berry. Same with Beyoncé Knowles. Same with Barack Obama. The list goes on. No one really cares about your actual ethnic makeup when they're referring to your "race". Which is sad, but like I said, it's all BS.

1) Not that I'm not a fan of wesley snipes, its that I'm not a fan of just plain copypasting wesley snipes. At least usually with characters based on celebrities, its just an obvious homage, not a direct copy.
2) At least to me, when someone says "Black", I think african. Not brazilian, not arabic, not hispanic, not just well tanned. African.
For people like halle berry, DOA5 Lisa, etc, etc, They might as well just be a white person with tan. I prefer to call them "Creamy".

More fake accounts? I would probably approve if it helped make the gameplay really solid (like in Dead or Alive 3.1), which would be majorly beneficial for the game itself. But Jesus Christ, how far will things go? lol

At this point I don't care about stages and costumes. There are enough of those already IMO. Right now what I want is force techs back and more solid core mechanics. If I have to choose one or the other it will be core mechanics.

We don't necessarily have enough stages (or at least fun ones), but yeah I'd like for them to fix that and do something about online as well, so annoying trying to play there

1. 2 vs 2 Online Tag Mode
2. Online Tag Survival Mode against KI
3. Offline Tag Survival Mode + collectabels Items

7. Lose Animations for Offline Tag
8. Great & Greatest Win Pose
9. Full Tag Animations for Ryu/Hayate , Ryu/Ayane , Brad Wong/Gen Fu , Helena/Lisa ,
10. Edit Tag Throws for Ryu with his Partner Kasumi.

I get what you mean but I heard they were returning alot of old DOA stages for 5U. I have always thought past DOA had better stages than DOA5 even though I only seen and barely played them.

Agreed I hope they return at least three more. I mean these stages are great and all especially with danger zones and such but I think the old games stages were more fun. And as much as I like the NG stages (especially Sky City Tokyo) I think I may get bored with them afterwords. So really hoping they bring some good stages from the old games back

2. That's kind of dubious. You keep throwing out Brazilian as if it's own thing. The African diaspora came to South America as well. Especially Brazil. Many people are descended from slaves and other immigrants from "Sub-Saharan" Africa. The same as in America. Many "Black" people in America have never thought twice about Africa and African culture. So, why are they "Black" but suddenly nobody in Brazil is because...they're from Brazil...? And how the hell is Halle Berry (etc.) "a white person with a tan"? What type of rules are you following? What stops them from being black? Is this the one-drop rule in reverse? Is it because they're not dark enough? Are you saying there's no difference between Halle Berry and the cast of Jersey Shore...? lol
