Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate |OT| The ninjas are free; the swimsuits are not.

Baw. I dont want my Facebook friends to know I voted in this. Can I keep it private if I vote?

Isn't there a way to hide your liked things showing up on people's timelines? Have liked stuff only show up for you? I'm sure it's possible...

But I just use an alt account for all my game activity on FB. You could create an alt, too, maybe?

I had like 18ish likes on the original pictures. This is lame : /
 
Surely there must be some sort of free website where you can upload pics, make some rules and vote for your faves? It's long-winded this way, but I guess they can keep track of who is voting more than three times in each part (or for more than one costume per same character), even if it is tedious for them to read every single person's name in the Likes section...but I guess that's TN's problem lol.

Team Ninja sure is lazy cause it wouldnt be hard to make a site for it and automatically lock you with 3 votes.
 
Yeah, hoping this is only for PS4/XBO/PC. Wonder if it's coming before DOA6. Can't wait to see those character models and hair physics.

All I got for the Vernal Equinox was this stupid tag
look what Koei Tecmo trademarked..

...And then look at a response in the gaming thread about it:

Eh, they registered a whole bunch of stuff related to already released games.

Soutenroku (2014-26946) - Nobunaga's Ambition
Tenka Sousei (2014-26947) - Nobunaga's Ambition
Hiryu no Shou (2014-26948) - Nobunaga's Ambition
Moushouden (2014-26949) - Dynasty Warriors Xtreme Legends
Musou Orochi (2014-26950) - Warriors Orochi
Xtreme Beach Volleyball (2014-26951)
Tendou (2014-26952) - Nobunaga's Ambition

Sounds more to me like they're just protecting their stuff.

I'd like to be wrong. Team Ninja are working on a PS4 project, I mean.

After two months of not playing everything seems so foreign; love dropping everything and not remembering timings. Lobby population seemed all right but ranked was dead guess the new character did not keep the population high.

Have the contest entries been uploaded anywhere else? No Facebook crew checkin in.
 
Thought I'd share the winners of the costume contest for those who can't view them on Facebook.

The top 10 list is in order of most votes, followed by the staff picks.

If they don't show up for any of you, let me know. I've just grabbed the direct links from FB, but hopefully they're viewable to all.

1st place: Eliot

Staff Mentions/Prizes:

Producer Prize, Kasumi, Yosuke Hayashi
Beautiful, cool and eye-grabbing. I think this costume embodies her characteristic well. I fully agree that all fans voted for this costume. I wanna fight with Kasumi in this costume!

Director Prize, Ayane, Yohei Shimbori
First, I thought that what are you doing with our Ayane with a tail like a monkey, but I thought I started being deluded and honestly I thought she was cute in this costume. This is something that Team NINJA can't create it by our own.

Chief Designer, Christie, Yutaka Saito
I want to respond your love to Christie with my love to her. If I promise to meet with her at a coffee shop, this is the costume she will put on. Snake and Apple belt design is so adorable! Also, I think normally lady fighter wear half glove to fight, but she is a master of sneak fist, so she has to protect her fingertips.

Team NINJA Designers, LeiFang
It's so funky, original and keep DOA-ish tone in it. We, Team NINJA Designers, must admit that you defeated us! 参りました!!!

Community Manager, Rachel
It was unfortunate that this design was attacked by unknown hackers in Facebook and I have to set this aside from the competition. But I like her Damon Hunter-ish a tight black costume with a cyborg type of left arm. Also, I'm a big fan of Ninja Gaiden and would like to bring this costume to Ninja Gaiden Series someday. Thanks everybody again. Much Love.

I hope they still consider making Rachel's costume for the game, because it's a shame to have to ignore it after it was sabotaged. For those who don't know, it received well in excess of 25,000 likes, as it was either shared at some huge website or done to ruin the contest. The artist was very gracious about it. Hopefully they will still consider it.

No idea how many or which ones they will make into real costumes, though. I know the Eliot, Marie Rose and Kasumi artists have posted different images of their costumes to show what they could look like, so I imagine those top three will be getting made. I hope they try to do them all, but damn, there are still so many that would be awesome to be made, but didn't make the final 10. There were many cool Kassie ones I liked.

GGs to Vade his Pai has a good low game and his throw timing is good I think with a few good days of practice his Pai will be wrecking people. I see too few good Pais one who could come up is great.
 
I'm surprised that a male costume one. Too bad it's for Eliot. (Not a fan.) The outfit itself is pretty cool though. The grunge Rig costume is pretty cool too, but the rest of the top 10 are pretty meh IMO.

I hope that if they do this again in the future, it's a lot more organized. Using Facebook for the voting was a huge mistake. A lot of really awesome costume got lost in the shuffle.

Maybe I can take a match rather than just one game every now and then one of these days. Definitely not on your tier yet ,but just need to work at it and actually play the game.
 
I hope nobody minds that I quote myself from the PSN thread as nobody seemed to be able to help me there and I have a little problem with DoA5: Ultimate and PSN. Maybe someone here can help me? :(

So I have a PSN related problem with DoA5: Ultimate, or rather a little confusion and wondered if someone can help me out here.

First off, DoA5: Ultimate has a free2play version called DoA5: Ultimate Core Fighters and I'm using the German PSN, for whatever reason free2play games aren't allowed to be fully free here so Core Fighters costs 0.49€ which I didn't mind so I purchased Core Fighters for these 49 cents. All fine and well but this is where my confusion starts:

Before I "bought" Core Fighters I could purchase DoA5: Ultimate for 39.99€, though now that I have Core Fighters, the full version of DoA: Ultimate says "Buying Unavailable" same as the Full Version upgrade to Core Fighters. If I click on "More info" it says:

"To be able to buy DoA5: Ultimate or DoA5: Ultimate Core Fighters Full Version Upgrade you need to purchase the following:

DoA5: Ultimate Story Mode
DoA5: Ultimate Core Fighters Story Mode
DoA5: Ultimate Core Character Pack"

Okay so I have to purchase the Story Mode(s) and the Character Pack to be able to buy the full version now? o.o That actually sounds logical in a way since I should have the full version content with these three things but I wonder why there are two Story Modes listed for purchase plus there's another thing that makes me raise my eyebrows.

As said DoA5: Ultimate was 39.99€ when I still could buy it. The Story Mode unlock costs 19.99€ and the Character Pack 14.99€ which combines at 34.98€ so I wonder, where does the 5.01€ difference come from?

I wasn't sure if I should post this in the game's community thread but it seems more like a PSN related issue so I thought this thread is more appropriate. Thanks for any help in advance!

Did you happen to buy anything else, like a character or anything, apart from core fighters? I know in some cases, to avoid duplicate purchasing, they will prevent you from buying other packs of things, even if you want to, if you already bought something within that pack.

It seems odd since I had actually "bought" core fighters then bought the $40 upgrade to ultimate a few days later when I had the funds, but this was on US PSN and not Euro/German/whatever PSN.

So if you get Core Fighters on PSN, and get DLC for it, then get Ultimate disc version, what happens? Can you use the DLC on both, or just uninstall Core and use Ultimate with the DLC?
