Team NINJA does a 33-man Developer Tournament

I think DOA 5 has at least as many characters that are viable in tournament play as MVC2 does.

Probably a few more.

I'm still going to buy DOA5, I'm a big fan of DOA since I played DOA1 on PS. But I'm just so disapointed in those negative info. I just don't know why TN let some players in FSD join DOA5's development, took their opinions at first, but turned to listen those anonymous Japanese testers' opinions at the end. That just make no sense!

Well, yes, you're being sexist. You're also treating me as if I'm the same as every other male you're coming across. You said above, "You're such a guy." Just because you're a woman doesn't mean you can't be sexist. It's exactly what you're doing. I don't know why you need to back down or show bravado in an internet debate, since that's not how I respond to posts. But since you're treating me that way, I won't respond to any of the posts you make.

And no, you haven't hit a nerve. Nothing said on a videogame message board is going to upset me. It's not that serious. :)

I'm not being sexist because you were acting like most guys on the internet in the high level communities I've been apart of. And last time I checked I have never denied a man the right to vote or demanded that he go into the kitchen to make me and sandwich.Unless I was joking with him.

I think you should look up the term sexism. When you pretty much shot down my post with your reply I replied back. And it seems you can't respond back to my opinion so your using this whole sexism BS to cover your ass.

Well that's good news....kinda.

I think it's only the DOA community that does this because of e-sports, because I haven't seen anything like this in other communities. Hell, female Tekken players are mostly treated like casuals (or worse), except for players like Chris and Dani in the UK Tekken scene.


People have to prove themselves, that's all you need. Yeah, maybe people will try to flirt with you or look at you funny, but everyone get this sort of treatment when they first start up.

The Tekken community is brutal towards female players.They just don't care.Your either good or your not. Tekken as a game is so top loaded that many female players who play the game don't try to attempt to play it at a high level unless they meet a great group of players to teach them how to play. I got some help when I started playing Tekken 6 seriously. Even when I was comfortable with the game mechanics I still got owned online and offline.

lol. Maybe you should. :)

But no need to respond to me any further about this. It will won't go anywhere and we're far off topic. But, in the future, you should try treating people like individuals and not stereotyping them based on the preconceived notion of how you think men on the internet act.

I try.

Let me you ask you this... what do you think happens when Akira, Sarah, or Pai fights Helena in a tournament?
It makes me so sad that characters from another franchise will, potentially, destroy the DoA characters. :(

Mailifang. Please don't double post.

Half the roster being tournament viable means the game is only half-done to me. Especially when my main is in the shit part of the tier list.

No one cares about your gender. You're throwing it around like it means something then lumping in everyone else into a group. That's why he called you sexist.

Well that's what Skilletor thinks. But I admit to having battle scars from being in hostile environments. If I didn't stand my ground and defend my opinions half of you would've put me on blast. And a few of you tried already on this site.

lol. Maybe you should. :)

I am treating you as an individual. And because of how you treated me I came out you the way I did. In the future maybe you shouldn't start what you can't finish. I thought that you were not going to to respond to my posts anyway.
Now your just trolling.

Sorry about that.

Sometimes.

It may sound like crazy talk right now but actually I'm fairly certain Bayman shits all over Akira TBH. The risk reward seems to be in favor of Bayman a lot more. But thats mostly because Akira players rely on the whole "high jab low jab high jab low jab" bullshit to keep up frame advantage and it gets really obnoxious with how predictable it becomes.

It's great on paper, right up until Bayman uses a high-counter advanced low punch hold into a wall. Then Akira becomes scared to jab ever.

And since Bayman's advanced holds outside of stun do more than Akira's throws.... fuck do I have to worry about?

LOL. All I know is that your Bayman skills are scary.

With Pai,Sarah, along with my main Lei Fang in the same game.Its gonna be hard choosing who I'm going to use in DOA5. I might just pick up and learn to use Mila as well.

...And I'm already starting to miss Ein. Bayman was so easy to beat with him...

Lol, not all Akira players rely on the jab frame advantage. There's so much punishment that Akira can suffer as a result of the jab game that it's not worth the trouble (plus it ruins the fun/skill & challenge reward if you spam it).

I'll say one thing from what I have seen and tested already in DOA5. Bayman is going to be trouble! Which is great because I've always enjoyed playing with him.
