Normally bum rushers do stupid ass launches which then can get them launched and then they lose, players like that usually lose hard to a good defense and then that begins with footsies which goes back to my statement
"oh, there went a good portion of my life better not do that stupid thing again".
So at this point all I can tell you is work on your defense, when i play games I learn a rhythm and when that doesn't work I adapt to my opponents and fill in the plot holes, you can ask most people who play against me i usually nail them for an error.
I don't have an issue dealing with it, I'm just saying that the over reliance on it hurts the Fgc overall because the low risk high reward nature of it inevitably leads to this.
There were matches in mk9 that would literally be people just jump punching towards me, repeatedly jumping into my anti air grapple. They did this because on the off chance they got lucky and hit me they could then remove half my health off a juggle.
Or sektors who repeatedly rushed in trying to low poke to port uppercut combo. Same deal.
Happens in DOA sometimes though I haven't pinned down what's highs andvmids so it actually works against me sometimes lol.
On that. It works for the boyish Mila, but why the hell was that shirt only put on momiji? She's second only to kasumi for "pretty pink princess".
Off that. Finally found an HD version of the gif I use for showing "how I wish high level fg play really was".
Or more accurately, my ideal fighter would be more focused on straight combat like that, with juggles and the like being periphery.
Some games have that as a mash clash event, but I'm talking that would be the end result of two high level players knowing the ins and outs, not a qte.
It'd be nice to get a trailer, curious what the pajamas have for their feet. If they're animal slippers I'm gonna go out on a limb and say Leifang will get panda slippers, Hitomi bear slippers, and Kokoro... some random ass animal
The original concept of MaxDrago contemplated bear slippers, so there is a chance that Hitomi will get them (and the other girls wearing the pajamas other animals stuffs).
You need to start throw punishing xD you let me get away with so much when I use Phase and try to retaliate with strikes that I can block because they aren't quick enough
Dead or Alive Game
What do you want to say to us? We put our all effort and guts to do this 2nd competition. We prepared official site for the place of voting because many western fans and eastern fans said it's not the place for voting. And now many western fans started saying tjey don't like the costumes selected, even worse, they are saying we (Tam NINJA) are crazy about those costumes. What about 1st time? 100% of costumes were selected from our fans in the west. Official site opens up the reach to more fans (world wide) for their vote and those 10 costumes were selected. Do you guys have any respects to authors of those? We provided fun place and a moth project for our community. But I am very disappointed by the response from our fans in the west to be honest.
In the end, no one really won, but Western Fans pretty much faceplanted into the asphalt from 100,000 off the air while falling at Mach 10 in the eyes of both TN and the Eastern fans and THAT is a far worse blow than what we perceive this contest to ever be.
This would imply that Eastern fans have never said anything stupid or embarrassing in a fit of rage. Nerd rage knows no nationality. lol
I also don't know how you would speak for "Eastern fans'" perception when few people (west or east) probably even see whatever people post on the DOA facebook page to begin with (one of the reason the contest was moved). People will get over it and forget it happened. And if TN decides to be disappointed with "Western" fans generally when it was "Western" fans coming to TN's defense in that very thread, then... Welp, I can't help them.
It's not a matter of East vs West it's a matter that people got sick of ferish DLC a year ago and this contest was hoping alleviate that instead they're using it to create even more fetish crap. were sick of it and anyone who supports it whether English or Japanese.
I think that people should accept the fact that DOA plays to certain fetishes and just roll with it. Doing the SJW thing will just infect more fail into an already failing community(remember no one thinks this game is good). I am frankly sick of people blaming the fetish/fanservice stuff on why no one takes this game seriously when other fighting games have far more egregious examples of slutty/fetishy things(I play Poison in USF4 and I think her win pose is disturbing). I am worried that TN may just close off these competitions to the west in the future if that was their response.
Although I don't really want to express myself further about the outfits, I just wanted to add one more thing. At the end of the day, I believe the winning entries support TN's values - making the women look "as attractive as possible", or more bluntly, showing boobs and ass. I found something Yosuke Hayashi said a while ago about their representation of women:
"With the representation of female characters in the Dead or Alive franchise, we've always wanted to make the girls look as attractive as possible, and that's something that's not going to change for us at all," Hayashi says. "We are a Japanese developer, and we're making the female characters with our common sense and our creative sense. When you take that to countries outside of Japan, it tends to be very misinterpreted in some cases, people considering it sexist or derogatory, etc."
..."For us, within our culture, we're showing women like that, and we're trying to make them look attractive," he says. "We can't help if other cultures in other countries around the globe think that it's a bad representation. Within our nationality and within our national borders, we obviously have morals that we create our female characters from, but within our Japanese sensibilities, we've made those characters the way they are and we're not going to stop doing that."
Following this quote, someone from a different forum posted this gif I thought was very fitting:

Ha haaaaah. I remember this quote. Just speaking generally, and not really just about this game, can you imagine the BS that people would try to justify using that excuse? "Oh, no. You don't understand. You're misinterpreting our cultural notions. This is just how we do things here. We can't help what other people think about it." Eh. As long as it's not human rights violations or something. lol
And he said it like people in Japan aren't getting fed up with how women are being viewed (it's been exacerbated by stupid things government officials have said, but...). Yeah, those "cultural sensibilities" seem to be mostly from that otaku point of view (who are somewhat looked down upon in general society). They may want to hold that. People don't typically consider just "attractive" to be derogatory...
...But, that's none of my business. *sips ginger ale*
So because they have different tastes and values then you means that its okay for people to rage and make us look bad as a whole? Is it okay to force your opinions and tastes onto other people?
I wouldn't be so sure of that. They may not focus on it with so little fucks given but how many fugl...I mean normal looking girls are in fighting games that people care about, besides Leo?(she was created to preemptively subvert rage IMHO)
Would you knock that off? I've seen SJW hell and this isn't it. There was only one remotely SJW-type person that called everyone misogynists and they don't post here anymore.
