This thread is gonna get modded or closed we should probably stop xD

I'm still kinda skeptical that trailer we got wasn't next (current? ) gen. I know they said it was current (past? do PS3/360 count as past gen yet? ) or something like that but the twitter rep's english can be bad like when they said "fighterS"

There were a LOT of particles. Speaking particles, I wonder what changes they might have with Kasumi's petals, Phase 4's smoke, and the stuff Alpha constantly spews out from her body

After being and experience DOA5's art style for a while, I prefer it over the original. But they need to improve on the expressions in DOA5, I feel like the mouth doesn't move enough when they talk to each other? I was looking at Phase 4's stuff and she was like mumbling while big words are coming clear and expressive from her, it was awkward? LOL

@Chapstick I feel like instead of making the explosions bigger, which isn't bad but I feel like they could've been more creative with it, for instance, maybe for certain big push backs that send people flying or into walls they could've added some slight wind/sound effects so you can see and feel the power behind the move you did?

I also wonder, like you, about the improvements of the effects you suggested~

TN tweet posted by @KwonJigglypuff :

I guess I will have to wake up early on that day, hehe.
Or not sleep, choice is mine!

This is what happens to me every, and I mean every, times that there is the streaming of a DoA tournament XD

However to go out with friends is definitely more worthy than remain to attend to a demonstration =)

lol I'm only kidding. :p Besides I can always watch it later (they'll hopefully save the stream?)

Okay so I have a new prediction. I think TN is going to include some arcade features into Last Round. Some things I think they will include:
1) Arcade had visible customization on character select screen which would make life a whole helluva lot easier especially when you can't remember which hair (or mask ;)) button __ makes. I think even TN noted having better customization for LR.
2) The puzzle piece system basically just made unlocking outfits take longer but it was neat and they may possibly consider adding it.
3) The attract mode which has been in every DOA game before 5 (and of course in 5UA). I still enjoy those little aspects and it's a reminder that this game was originally an arcade fighter (and...well is an arcade fighter currently as well XD).

Those are several of mine. Anyone think of any other arcade features you think they'll put in LR?

I believe to remember that they recognized a post of a fan (maybe it was me, I can't remember XD) asking for implementing the HUD of the Arcade in 5U. So I think that there are even chances for getting the icons of the characters close to their names.

I would love to get what you mentioned me too, and I believe definitely that we will see n°1 if the customization of the characters willl be expanded (it's already hard now with 5U to remember correctly the buttons to press for it)

Good point @Kronin I would really like to see the character icons as well! Also while we're at it here are my predictions for new hairstyles as well (everyone feel free to share your own XD):
Leifang: I think she has a decent chance of getting her classic DOA1 ponytail back given the requests
Brad Wong: I think he has a chance of having loose hair as it has been a popular request by fans.
Marie Rose: TN obviously puts a lot of time into the character (compare MR's DLC outfits to the other girls). I doubt they haven't at least sketched out possible new hairstyles. I could see her having loose hair (especially since now with Nyo we know TN is capable of making some long @ss hair! :O)
Rachel: Fans of her had so many requests I feel like TN probably gave her a new hairstyle. Not sure what she would get though.
Jann Lee: Bruce Lee-inspired hair. Okay this one's a stretch but TN has shown to give guys a second hairstyle and let's face it no one would be surprised if he was given this. XD
Phase 4: Short hair. I have a good feeling about Synce's 1st contest design and now that we've seen Hitomi get a new hairstyle based off a fan design this one has just as much of a chance.

I believe that if they don't show off any new characters at TGS that it basically seals the deal that there will be no new characters. I really hope that they show off some new stages as well as the ones revealed in the LR trailer.

Interesting prediction why do you think that?

I'm comparing it to 5U where they unveiled Momiji right away and 5UA with Marie. They did this because when you're trying to sell the same game twice, you need something big to hype it else the casuals won't give a damn. New characters are the most hype thing in fighting games, so that's what they'll show first, else few people are going to care about the game. Unless I'm forgetting an event, TGS is the biggest event before release to show stuff off to the public, so TN will bring out one of their big guns here whether or not that's a character remains to be seen.

Now TN is trying to sell the same game a third time and the first thing that TN shows us is a few stages and some haircuts, that's already a bad sign because there's next to zero hype in that. The game is also only $30, comes out relatively soon and the focus is more on the new consoles rather than where the existing users are, so it looks more like they are trying to port 5U to the new consoles and they throw in a few extras and change the name so they entice buyers of previous versions and justify to them a reason to spend $30 on it.

That was me, Kro.

I just hope they reveal Aerial Gardens.
