I'm done with UNIEL for the night. Getting back into the habit of OS throw+3C against Assaults or shield regular jump air attacks.

Always feels weird getting back into the shield mechanic.

DOA5 tournaments are banning a lot of the outfits that are in the game, including innocent ones like this.

Good.

Uhhh

Lewd? I guess?

 

[CPS2]

Aren't all the default costumes over-sexualised? Isn't that the whole point of DOA?

I thought it was because getting all the DLC available on all consoles would be too much of a hassle but apparently it's because some of them are too "sexy"?

i found sako's reaction in both scenarios to be hilarious for some reason.

 

[Beesuit]

You don't need to get all of them. You pick w/e is on the console.

Anyway 20v20 HK vs SG team battle is warming up

Yeah, that will help with the game's perception.
Adjust the boob bounce too next, I am sure everyone who did not play before will take it seriously now.
FFS.

Part of me has no problem with this. Some of the DOA 5 outfits are pretty revealing, even by DOA standards. I imagine this is an "image" thing.

Then again, I remember playing Mortal Kombat 9 at EVO 2011, and being told to not perform fatalities when I was asked to perform a match on stream. A couple of days later, REO's playing Mileena in her flesh pits costume doing fatalities to Perfect Legend during grand finals. 'Guess it's all dependant on if those tournament directors want to enforce the rules.

 

[Beesuit]

If you can't even accept your game for what it is, good luck trying to grow and expand it.

 

[Rentahamster]

Gootecks came out to our local SF4 bar. Neat.

 

[KidA Seven]

This hugo giving Sako problems

 

[Rainy]

Yep that was kinda close.

 

[KidA Seven]

Kayane's footsies slightly improved

 

[Anne]

I'm probably in the minority but I'm down for TOs asking players to keep the sling bikinis off stream. What's wrong with the ninja girl though? ;w;

Edit: And no I don't really have a problem with the outfits, but it does help out in image some I think.

 

[Beesuit]

Ninja Girl Costume has her cleavage covered. Obviously it'd get banned in a DoA game.

 

[KidA Seven]

Ultra pools are going to be on stream 1 now.

I was at work when I saw it was posted on Facebook he was passing by.

 

[Beesuit]

Considering the amount of support Team Ninja has provided to the DoA community (pot bonuses, in game shoutouts to the scene and what not) and how much monetisation is based around costumes, I can imagine the devs not being too happy when the bans start effecting the game's bottom line. I don't care what anyone says, less exposure definitely won't be helping them in that regards.

Talk about biting the hand that feeds you and shooting yourself in the foot. If they didn't want DLC costumes they could just not have it on the consoles in the first place instead of drawing all this extra attention with the ban. Now they've got censorship opponents and moral guardians being drawn into the mix, shitting things up even further.

Online Elena is S+ tier.

Offline Elena I think is hovering around high tier somewhere.

Mallet Smash is love.

"Haha tricked you into buying DoA by making you think it was wholesome! Enjoy the tits!"

PS2 3S different meter building or damage amounts than arcade. And ran at a different speed.

wow louffy is out of the tournament

 

[Scrub Mcgrubb]

Yeah some of the DOA commentators were mentioning it during Winter Brawl. Apparently since Tecmo is putting money into this Battle Royal 2015 tour thing, the community came to Tom Lee with an agreement not to use any of the racy costumes (on stream at least).

They want DOA to be more legit... but just pretending like the pervy stuff doesn't exist won't make the problem go away. Good luck to them though!

 

[AAK]

The reasoning was the same as Blanka's alt in ssf4. They say it's too distracting. They are somewhat correct.

 

[gutabo]

Get rrrrrrekt

Kebab dropped

 

[Immortal Technique]

Damn, this tournament, very impressive field. Luffy out, Dieminion in losers, Valmaster in losers, Top 16 winners is still looking loaded. Sako vs. Ryan Hart is the big one in top 16

 

[BadWolf]

Great match, painful commentary.

 

[Thomasorus]

Well it's also the same as "don't do fatalitys" on stream at EVO. There's some kids watching and when you know how USA can't deal with sexuality it's better to stay safe.

 

[pixelish]

Great match, painful commentary.

really? i thought damascus is doing pretty well as a commentator.

 

[Immortal Technique]

Poongko is ridiculous!!

I really like Damascus on commentary, he has a fresh touch about it.
