"Professional" and "Casual" modes in Doa5

[TRI Mike]

So the way we're gonna be playing is with classic camera, no hit effects and infinite time¿ I though DOA used 40 seconds.

Infinite time is set for demo purposes. I believe the default is 40 seconds for the full version of the games.

Thats lame. I like casual mode because of the camera and danger zones but i dont want to have to use the 3 point holds.

 

[Matt Ponton]

nothing about 3 point holds. It's 4 point holds regardless of the option.

Oh ok i thought i saw something about that. Why cant they just keep these things like options we can toggle on and off. Instead or putting them into preset categories.

According to the previous post of Rikuto, if you choose "Casual" you can still do it:

all it changes is the camera and hit effects. in fact once you select it that you can change each option manually from options menu.

So apparently Casual/Professional seems just an additional choice to the two options -about camera and hit effects- present in the Alpha demo

right. its a preset currently, nothing more.
