I hate that I can't even punish shit with the crappy online. Everything this Hitomi just did left her at a disadvantage but when I hit f+p, Tina's faster throw at 7 frames, did I get a throw? Nope, I got hit with a move that took even longer to come out despite Hitomi already being at a disadvantage from the previous move I just blocked. What the shit? SFDOUIHR(W#$YR#R
Chorazin said:Ugh, guys I think I hate this game. When the punishment for a strong offense is a 40% or more damage Hold when my long combo maybe does 20% damage, it's just annoying. I just don't enjoying playing defense and that seems to be when this game encourages.
I was so hyped for this as well since I loved DOA4 but I don't remember that being as Hold happy as this is, or have I just not played DOA4 in so long that I've forgot?
Maybe the rooms you played in DoA4 were using different life settings, but this feels pretty much exactly the same to me. Normal damage in DoA games is ridiculous and unbalanced, imo.
It's DoA4 portable. I have a different expectation of a portable fighter than I do on consoles, since I won't ever take a portable fighter seriously for competitions's sake. I don't expect much on a portable, I expect a lot on a console.
DoA4 is a horrible fighting game.

I'm thinking about picking up that large battery pack to see if the change in grip works better for me. If it doesn't feel any better, I'm going to have to sell it. I haven't even played the 3DS since the day I wrote that post. It was genuine pain.
For reference sake, I found the Xbox "Duke" to have been one of the most comfortable controllers I've ever held (size). PS3 and 360 controllers are fine. The PSP nub was uncomfortable over time but the d-pad was mostly fine. I don't really recall the DS d-pad being uncomfortable either. Nothing I've used has been as uncomfortable for me as the 3DS d-pad.
It's really disappointing.

You should probably make a note to everyone watching those videos that they're all set to high counter damage (150%).

And trophies(there's over a 1000 of them). I got one when I ranked up to E+.
Collecting costumes, trophies(which you can take pictures of with a huge variety of customization for picture taking), and ranking up is addictive. Definitely my Goty so far.
I'm compiling a list of FC for DOAD here. Join in on the madness, all skill levels welcome.

That looks nice but can we stick our region zone somewhere?DR2K said:
It'll be nice to use it as an international DOAD GAF matchmaking hub.

Holy shit, the Tag Challenge format is the dumbest decision I have seen in a game this year.

Getting a 3DS today along with Dead or Alive Dimensions, can't wait, I'm upgrading from a launch phat DS. I'll add myself to the DoaD FC list later.

Nope, this is portable DOA4 and just as bad as DOA4, possibly even worse.Wizpig said:

The AI apparently does not know how to fight AI Genra.
It will just stand there while Genra pelts it with projectiles.

Ha, the last few Tag Challenges are hilarious. Counters that take away your whole life bar? C'mon. I understand it's supposed to be difficult, but simply raising the damage instead of actually making the AI better is a cop out. How does this stuff pass for game design these days?

I feel your pain
I guess I can add my name to the FC thread, but really...what's the point? With no way to contact someone in-game or from the 3DS, friend matches never happen.
It's portable DOA4 with three counters instead of four.
It's not him. DOAD's online isn't as good as some of the other games. SSF4 is a lot smoother in comparison.

Basically my friend was uploading some pics while playing, and that was why the game was running at 2 FPS, it was really terrible, but it was not the game's fault at all.
I tried with another friend and sure, it's playable, but it's not still quite like the offline; i guess this is how the game really runs.
Luckily Tatsunoko is far worse than this.
And of course not even MvC 3 on the 360 has a perfect netcode.
Guess SSF IV on the 360 had me spoiled, you get lag-free matches almost all the time.
The odd thing about DoA
is that the lag seems to be in the cutscenes before/after the match the most... there's not much input lag in the game, but there's this "lag feeling" going on anyway.
I'll try some more matches.

Seriously? DOA2U's X-box Live netcode was PERFECT for the time and probably the best netcode in a fighter until Blazblue came out. Sucks if it went backwards.

On top of that you can't even punish like you could in DOA4. In DOA4 and DOAD, most moves leave you at a disadvantage. So if you were smart in DOA4, you would block the whole match and throw your opponent once they hit you with an attack since they would be at a disadvantage. Itagaki saw some players at an event turtling until the last seconds of the match because neither person wanted to be punished and afterwards Itagaki said "This is not how I intended for people to play." If that was the case, then why make every move leave you at a negative? Why? The current Team Ninja saw this and obviously felt the same way. Their method to fix this? Make standard throws seven frames instead of five. Now you can't punish your opponent for just throwing out stupid shit! Now what are you going to do, biatch?! I really, really hate this game. I'm not sure why Team Ninja is intent on spitting in my face with this kind of shit.Lyte Edge said:
