DOA5U Villains pack including Tengu & Raidou

[Berzerk!]

Would rather focus on game balance with the current roster
And there's certainly enough characters to improve before adding new ones
We don't have any info on the 1.05 patch do we?

Only if you can buy each character individually. Some people might not want to buy Raidou.

 

[KwonJigglypuff]

I really only care about Tengu's moveset.
I'm 100% sure I will never pay for the rest (Raidou included). Donovan should be given their "movesets" instead.

 

[EMPEROR_COW]

I fully endorse this idea.

I love it. It would be kinda interesting to see the DOA1-3 bosses. I would love projectiles in this game! And I bet it could bring in more players

 

[Number 13]

Only boss character I was remotely interested in playing was Genra and even then it would have to be separate purchase from Tengu/Raidou. I might buy a bundle of them, but that would mean a reasonable price and me wanting to help out TN.

 

[Sly Bass]

I could do without Genra. His weapon/push properties don't belong in this game.

 

[Grimace]

I'd buy Raidou in a heartbeat >:3

I'd get the bundle, but I don't really care for Genra unless he gets a huge overhaul like the others have suggested.

 

[gnooz]

Good idea but 9.99$ for each character, oh boy nooooo...

 

[Kronin]

Good idea but 9.99$ for each character, oh boy nooooo...

The basic pack of Marie Rose (so the character with 4 outfits) should cost 5,99$, not 9,99$

 

[deathofaninja]

I fully endorse this idea.

If those three were announced. I would just burst into flames.

I think they could make Genra work in DOA5, but they would be required to take away his projectiles, and weapons. However they could fit in fine as long as they are only use during holds, throws, OH and Power Blow.

 

[Jyakotu]

Eh, I probably would just buy Raidou, but the completionist in me would buy them all. Not that I would use Tengu or Genra. They don't belong in this game.

 

[ItasumiJinsei]

I've wanted Raidou and Genra this whole time. I don't understand why they aren't in the game.

 

[ItasumiJinsei]

I want greater fiends too

 

[Jyakotu]

I've wanted Raidou and Genra this whole time. I don't understand why they aren't in the game.

Because they're dead.

 

[Dacthunder]

Tengu and Raidou are by far good enough for a villains pack. Raidou makes me think he's DOA's version of Akuma. The awesome news is, we are getting an announcement for more characters after Phase 4. Don't know if people saw this but here's the link:

Oh, because that matters in a fighting game.

Regarding Genra, if you played him as a projectile spammer in dimensions you deserved to lose, two of his projectiles are complete crap, the lightning is his only good one and is mainly used as a spacing tool because genras up close game is really bad. Even so, it's just too unsafe and slow to be used closer than half screen distance, small stages are really bad for genra cause of this.

If genra was to return, his close range game really needs to be changed, projectiles or no, once you get in on genra, he has an extremely hard time getting out of it, his only options are a slow high crush, 13f mid, or throw punishes, but if the other dude is delaying and mixing up, it's a nightmare. Just to show how slow he is, genra is 15/13/17

I'd say his jab would need to be changed to 12f at the very least, 15f is just ridiculous for a jab, even Tengu and Bass have a 12f high. And his guard breaks need to be changed to give him some real advantage, 66p gives him +1 which is nothing for genra, his only decent frame advantage move is 8k which is +2, which is a high, even then most chars can just jab him out of whatever.

Genra is a char that just needs an overhaul to almost his whole movelist, he can keep his throw loops, but he really needs his strikes to not be so overwhelmingly slow, especially if he won't have his force lightning.

he just doesn't fit.. never did, never will.
why add a character that is useless from the start..
I understand the fan service in dimensions but this game is far more competitive..and the balance is actually great. so thanks but no thanks.

 

[SilverForte]

I disagree, Genra was a lot of fun to play, he would fit well if they just reworked his moveset like I said.

 

[Jyakotu]

Oh, because that matters in a fighting game.

It doesn't matter, but that's why Raidou didn't return in DOA2. And let's not forget that Tengu didn't canonically appear in DOA4, but was a bonus character for the sake of having some type of playable boss. And Genra wasn't even playable in the main series at all. And you can bet your ass that Alpha-152 won't be in DOA6. So in a way, it MATTERS.
