Call me a party pooper, but I'm kinda ticked that TN has been putting so much effort into mother-f'n Kasumi (who was honestly one of the few characters who didn't really need much tweaking) giving her a bunch of new junk but yet they refuse to do anything with Ein and Leon (who are brand-spanking new) beyond a DOA4 copy-paste.

Kasumi can never be perfect. But tbh, they really could have left her untouched. I mean, she's pretty decent and honestly doesn't need any buffs oder nerfs.

I agree, Helena lost some good tools as well. But, time constraints may be the reason why they didn't improve the other characters (like Ein and Leon).

Don't get me wrong, I had no delusions that we would be getting Tengu now. After the E3 trailer, it was pretty much assumed that we weren't getting any of the old boss characters. The only way I can see them being put in now is via DLC, and as much as I don't want to give them ideas for it, a boss pack DLC would be the way it would happen. That said, they're so unlikely to put DLC characters in that it's barely worth beating a dead horse now.

That Kasumi combo was pretty sweet. I wonder if they've added anything else like that to anyone else?

Believe me .. I tried... even privately and directly to the team ..
I want him just as bad as you guys but the bird man just aint gonna fly this time around.. :(

as for combos ... yes .. the characters have been pimped out with combos from what I've been seeing/hearing ..
we got a glimpse of it with the trailer ... was hoping for more .. but I guess they don't wanna spoil the surprises. ;)

As for Leon ...
I wouldn't jump to assumptions just yet ...
I'm sure there's something a little more unique to him ...
I just want my hands on the game already so I can break it down ... XD


On a side note ...
I began with the tag tutorial ..
man .. voice over is a lot more tough than I thought .. LOL

I'd really like to see more Hayabusa and Ein stuff I've bear-ly seen anything of them minus SotF for Busa and his new animation and WR kick...but we've seen practically nothing of Ein :/

I dunno about Ein but we know Leon has some new stuff and changes over his DOA4 incarnation. He now has more launchers out of his attacks that used to cause knock back like 3pk, a new hit throw, a new ground bounce throw launcher, and he no longer has ridiculous height requirements for his air throw and can now combo into it after launch while also being able to aim where he throws them. TN even mentions in his bio that he no longer uses sambo and added a bunch of new moves to his existing ones so who knows what else he has by the time the game releases. its just that there isn't any footage of him other than one video with scrubs using him

They also claim that Rachel uses "Counter Fiend Fighting" and is the only one in the world who uses that style, but we all know that Spartan apparently did as well. Don't get me started on "Hayabusa-style Aikido" and "Muay Thai." The name they give the fighting styles mean little.

The stuff you mentioned should be the tip of the iceberg, but I'm guessing it'll be the root.

Those few changes alone are a vast improvement over his fucked over DOA4 incarnation which all grapplers suffered in . He was already solid and one of the best pressure grapplers with solid high and low crushes and good mixups that force opponents to guess...all while taking full advantage of the environment with damaging throws that have potential for even more damage with dangerzones. If you were expecting a complete overhaul with dozens of new moves then you'll be disappointed.

Either way Ein players are the ones who need to worry. dude played exactly the same since DOA2 and hasn't shown anything new so far in 5U

then thats on you. none of the characters in the game were overhauled to that extent from their 4 counterparts accept maybe busa who according to many players changed for the worse. so like many things related to this game you should keep your expectations at rockbottom like me to avoid further disappointment.

I'm hungry in wanting to know what the hell TN has been doing to the character and his rare appearances in videos isn't helping sate this. Is he gonna be 98% similar to his DoA 4 incarnation or what? I'm being fed scraps which is bad for my healthy development into a better man. At this point I'm gonna starve until an in-depth change log or even some official frame properties are posted. Not gonna get hopes up on any new moves at this point or I'll break out in hives for being too optimistic.

Um, actually quite a few were. Lei Fang and Jan Lee jumped up the tier list, for example. Christie also got a nice overhaul.

Now that I can't argue with.
