Now that people have pointed it out... I'm kind of disappointed that they're reusing a lot of the same assets and only updating them (or in some cases, downgrading). I wish they would have taken another leap like they did from DOA4 to DOA5.

I feel like it’s gonna be very difficult for TN to top the transition from DOA4 to DOA5! They changed art style from the anime style to a more realistic anime style ! We were surprised to see the new art style and it looked great ! Going from DOA5 to DOA6 is gonna be difficult since it already has a “realistic” anime style qualities to it’s art style .

If I were to say, what they could have improved on, it’s the animation of newer characters, stage transition animations in stages, the size-depth of stages and the new characters aesthetic ! NiCO is a copy and paste of Marie and Honoka and Diego is a boring street rat character . I want more ! More charisma, uniqueness, nerve and way different from what we already have !

Yeah tbh what more can they really do? the look from DOA2 to DOAD was pretty much the same just updated slightly, same thing here. DOA5's designs are basically the new standard for DOA models and I'm fine with that. Any more realistic and it'd just be weird

Don't know how accurate the twitter translation is or if this is the guy's real account but:
"I'll sneak in, but I'm testing the online Beta France now. It should have been a lot of trouble because it was built more than a month ago, thank you for playing even in such. I'm playing DOA6 Online Beta in France now. Thank you!"
It will probably look better upon release? I hope it does.

Asset reuse smh lazy devs. It’s mostly a rehash of 5lr.

I don't get the picture... is you responding to your own ridiculous comment?

All fighters rehash material and have sense the beginning of each start of each franchise. It's going to happen. Calling the devs lazy is an odd choice of words imo. The game should be delayed a few months. When Itagaki was making Ninja Gaiden II he said it took the team up to two weeks to design a single animation.

I don't think so, DOA6 looks way better than DOA5 xD

I put two comparisons in the spoilers and from what I've seen they're definitely overhauling and refining whatever they can. The only thing that seems reused would be the hair but even then it's improved over DOA5. If you want to see a game actually reuse assets, look at Soul Calibur 6 and Tekken 7 xD they reused alot of the same stuff from before and it shows since alot of the old stuff looks almost ported in and T7's models look so primitive and rough when you compare it to DOA6 and SC6

I believe that's his real account, and the game will look better even tho at this point they could release it and I wouldn't be complaining about how it looks now

This. I get wanting the game to look better but DOA fans forget they have the best looking 3D fighter out there. I personally think the game looks great for what it is and what they could afford. But like I can understand since the xbox titles were straight up gorgeous in visuals, kinda has us spoiled

Agree. In pictures, everything looks like it could be better, but playing the beta I noticed that when everything is moving, it actually looks gorgeous and those “flaws” ain’t really that big of a deal (until you do some screencaps where the whole low res textures and shit obviously comes out lol). Idk, I think they’ve done a good job and even if it could be better, I’ll take 6 happily. However, I do hope that the final release gets rid of all the visual annoyances like low res hair textures and ugly sweat.

Every game picture looks better than the actual gameplay, it seems like people forget that those pictures get edited to look better as well.

I really hope rig is a grower instead of a shower....

Every progress TN's artists made in the Valentines DLC in DOA5 seems to be reversed again. Completely flat ken dolls, missing navels, weird overall anatomy. I honestly think TN's artists have either forgotten how to model male character models since DOA5 or they left and were replaced by new ones who have no clue or don't care. At this point I honestly miss the low poly models of DOA5. They weren't perfect either but overall they looked more natural:

A little update on the navel tweet to Team Ninja and Master:
Master actually replied to the tweet and told me he would contact the developer team about it.


At least something, I do really appreciate his high engagement with the community. Though I doubt they will be able to fix it...

Thank you to everyone that supported the tweet. :)

The male anantomy in 6 looks a bit strange, but I do like the fact that the muscles and abs look more defined, too bad the navel is just above the pubic hair, which is really unrealistic and dumb. The tekken males might look like those blow up sex dolls but at least their bodies are anatomically correct.

The musculature in Tekken 7 is very exaggerated, as if the characters were pro bodybuilders instead of fighters, but at least every muscle and navel is where it belongs.
I do prefer the SoulCalibur anatomy for male character, even though they unfortunately ripped the models straight out of SC4/SC5. :/

I actually prefer the anatomy of Injustice/Mortal Kombat for the male characters. So far they look the most natural to me.

The Injustice 2 models and graphics in general are a league above everything that we've seen in T7, SC6 and DOA6 in general. NetherRealm Studios put a lot of time, money and effort into turning the rather ugly IJ1 art style in something really beautiful.

It's already obvious they will even top this in Mortal Kombat 11.
