Story Mode was actually really enjoyable. Sexual tension was everywhere too and that was actually refreshing to see. Eliot really wants Christie... and I don't blame him.

Figured that was Helena's, surprised at Ayane's. As excited as I was for this pack I am left disappointed. Not sure if I'll buy any or not.

There's some cool costumes, but I won't buy it. I don't even know anything about this IP :p
At least we can buy costumes per character...
 
I recognise maybe one or two, like Ayane's, because I own AquaPazza: Aquaplus Dream Match, but I have to say that I'm glad Kas' costume is what it is, like a casual outfit, because I doubt I'd get any otherwise. I might just pick up hers.

Some are quite nice tho, like Phase, Momiji and Christie. Honoka is still insane, and I wonder if there are any more like hers to come lol.

All I got for the Vernal Equinox was this stupid tag
The is the first batch of costumes where I think that most of them are just straight-up awful.

Anyone plays this game on xbox one? I want to buy it only for mai, but I'm not feeling like wasting a lot of money just to have her.

Also, core fighters is the same than the disc game?

Core fighters is the same as disc version except it comes with only 4 characters and all the game modes except story mode. You are perfectly fine to buy Mai only.

I am on Xbox One. GT is komakaze
 
Tom Lee at NEC saying we don't wanna miss NEC next year. So I guess a year from now they'll be announcing DOA6. Fricking long wait. Guess that means more DLC in 2017 for LR.

So probably two more SPs? Wow. I bet that money is going right into funding DOA6, too. They should only focus on balancing 5 one more time, if they feel they really need to.

I'm actually hoping that it would be teased at TGS 2017, announced properly at NEC 2017 with a playable build/demo (like how DOA5 had a demo at first) et the event, and then thanks to the feedback, sometime in 2018 on all platforms.
 
lmao Marie and Honoka will be in Musou stars. I was gonna get this anyway, but I need it even more now.

Oh, Rio is also in too. Good to see she's not dead.

we will see some character and costume sale?

Want to buy the KOF pack, but is expensive for me

KOF pack only just came out recently, so I doubt that will go on sale soon.

But there is some sale going on atm. It's not much really. Mainly just Season Pass 3 for full game owners. Rest is aimed towards F2P players. Hopefully they do some more sales in the new year.

Sometimes I launch DOA5 and play some arcade mode, and man, it's a really fun fighting game. Why does it have to be dead on PC? I pretty much never can play against anyone, I'm not motivated to actually become good :( Heck, I should have been hyped by Mai, but I saw no point in buying her since I'd just use her to beat arcade mode now and then. And no, I'm not buying a PS4 just to play this game online :p

If only it was cross platform, it really should be the norm nowadays. But honestly even if that's impossible, pretty much no other Steam fighter I play is so dead, I can find players in MKX and all the KOFs.

Here's hoping they will do this with DOA6 PS4-PC, but highly unlikely.

DoA GAF, it's been a while since I've played this game and I have been itching to get back in with the absence of 3D fighter in my rotation plus the fact that Tekken 7 still doesn't have a release date.

So I'd like your opinions/thoughts on whether playing stick is okay for this game? I used stick beforehand and I think I did okay with my C- Rachel. I know this is mostly a preference thing but does playing on pad host any execution advantages? I mostly play 2D fighters so I've been conditioned to use stick and would like some light shed on this.
 
I think this game is pretty popular as a pad-based fighter, but you do see some pros using stick. I'm not a stick person, but from what I gather, stick doesn't seem to offer any major advantages or disadvantages, so it really is just personal preference. Someone with more experience can probably correct me, but whatever works for you is fine, I think.

Thanks for your input guys, I'll give pad a try for the sake of trying and will revert back to stick if I can't click with it.

Honestly, like VF, I feel that DOA is just as comfortable on stick and on pad, unlike most other games.
Might be due to the movesets and 4-button system.
