He did one song and it is the worse. I don't want them to use him for DOA6 and hopefully no Rap. While the stage music fits the stage it could have been way more since some are just too calmed to actually pump you up. I did like the credits song even if it had rap on it.

Beat story mode last night and have been playing arcade trying to unlock outfits. Loving the game so far, but the AI just seems cheap, or is it just me? I'm mixing up my moves well enough, or so I think, but I'm still getting countered left and right.
Also I'm hoping they eventually allow us to just pay to unlock the outfits. I don't really care to play arcade or time trial on the hardest difficulty levels to unlock everything.
Also yeah the music is pretty bad, and unless I'm mistaken some are just recycled from DoA4. Thank god for custom soundtracks.
Yeah, I'm really disappointed Ein isn't in the game.

FTFY. You're welcome.

I will miss the old bastard if that's true.
Eliot is not a suitable replacement since they both play fundamentally different even if they have the same style of Kung-Fu. I mean just look at their stances and pokes. Completely different, or maybe I'm just going insane.LifeIsLife

This actually always bothered me that Eliot is considered the apprentice of genfu since their fighting styles in game are completely different.

Tech roll after wall bounce gets them out of it.

Played a good amount last night, and the online only had 1 laggy game really. When it is laggy it does suck major balls, but the rest were just fine.
A lot of the game gives me the impression of a rushed product. This game needed another 6 months to a year in the oven to polish itself off. Even simple things like menus in this game are atrocious. They serve their purpose, but the game lacks stylizing for interface to make it pop.
The actual fighting is top notch, although I am flustered when I play against people who just mash mid punch reversals since that's how I try to set up pokes/pressure. Throws seem hard to implement at the scrub level due to mashers.
Game overall feels worth the 60 bucks to me so far, but I am having trouble finding a character that "clicks" with me.

I tried to replicate it, it's impossible. I turned coms recovery off as well, lol. It gets up after one hit.
Yeah. I do feel that it's rushed, or at least not up to standards I'd place on a game today. It's a fun and gorgeous game but a dated package.Played a good amount last night, and the online only had 1 laggy game really. When it is laggy it does suck major balls, but the rest were just fine.

My girlfriend decided to pick up Brad Wong last night. We had a great time watching Drunken Master 2 and finding some moves in there, especially the one where he forced Andy Lau into a handstand and kicks him in the gut.
She does strike quickly and her stance stuff at first glance seemed good, but you get bopped out of it quickly attempting to use it lol.
I did enjoy Hitomi and Mila though. Tried Rig a lot too, but he feels too slow or maybe it's his recovery on moves. Brad is cool, but too complex for me lol.
Going to unlock Akira tonight to mess with him, and also give some time to the rest of the cast to find who fits me. Right now I enjoy Mila.
Yes it works. Set the CPU to P2 and 9p wall splat to 2p infinitely if they don't tech.
Don't know about tag, but regarding the costumes, yes.
Chosen1
Right, if they don't tech. What's the issue here?
Haha touche'. But yeah its easily escapable so it's not the end of the world.

OK thanks
Do you mean the ones actually on the buttons that look like carats? Those indicate which hit level the attack is blocked/countered.
The directional arrows mean press (white) or hold (black).

Dammit I didn't know Amazon had the devils one, I hope I can purchase those later. I would have traded you tho if I hadn't used my code. :/
Yeah the little tiny ones on the actual P or K. So they just tell you if the attack is done high, mid, or low? Cool. Thanks for the heads up.
Also, when it comes to counter holds, are most of you guys just mashing back and hold so if the opponent is mashing standard P attacks they will get countered?

Yeah, you can mash. Eventually though, you will start to catch on and be able to counter without having to mash. It's just a matter of playing more and learning what types of attacks the opponent is constantly using against you.Yeah the little tiny ones on the actual P or K.

If it was rushed, that would be beyond moronic, as they could have delayed, and released away from TTT2.
That may rank up there with DLC gems as the boneheaded FG decision of 2012.

Nope. Mash hold against me and you'll eat a 40% grab.
I typically don't counter until I notice my opponent has certain tendencies. You can usually tell pretty early in a match how your opponent will play the stun game.
That comes from experience, usually. Is there anything specific you're having trouble with?
Anyone else notice how similar the lobby menu music is to Twisted Metal, the guitar riffs.

Damn, I really need to stay out of this thread until my copy shows up.
Pro tip: Never buy anything from GameStop online. I should of just did in-store pick-up, but work schedule doesn't allow such frivolities. I should get my game Friday, but am obviously way behind the curve.

How much have you played? It's easy for me to tell because I'm familiar with the game. If you aren't, then it's probably difficult.

I preordered mine on amazon and they didn't ship it till yesterday.

I think I should play with you sometime since you seem to know what you're talking about. 99% of the people I've played online are terrible and provide 0 challenge.

Sent you a PM.
Damn... now I'm afraid to play against you lol. Who do you main? We need to get a 360 GAF lobby going, if not tonight then this weekend.
Holy shit.!? That ending, DOA6 needs to happen now.Kasumi (or is Ayane, the colors are a little off but I think it's Kasumi) is the one behind Bayman's scar
It really is difficult to tell if that's Kasumi, Ayane or a clone. It doesn't make sense for Ayane's character to shed a tear in that situation, but I've heard the artbook has concept art of Ayane wearing a similar cloak outfit. Maybe it was just a piece of concept art left over from NG3 though.
I've wanted a co-op action RPG starring Ayane, Kasumi, Hayate and Hayabusa since vanilla Ninja Gaiden came out. It would pretty much be top-down Ninja Gaiden combat with stats.
DoA5's ending would be a good place to start for a game like that.
Yea the music is pretty bad. Also there is NO INTRO. WTF. Those Aerosmith intros or even the one from DoA2 with that exciter song were always amazing.
Right now Brad Wong but I'm thinking of switching to Rigg. I'll be playing some tonight after I get home from work.
No. That would be really useful.
I've never actually thought about how difficult it must be for new players to tell the height of attacks. :/
Feel free to add me. Skillzilla81 on PSN/XBL. I won't be on much in the next week or two. Lots of homework.
But if I'm on, just send an invite.
