Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate

Unexpectedly, i'm enjoying playing Lisa more than anyone. I'm not a fan of her luchador costume, but her sophisticated scientist bitch costume has me in love! And she has so many throws! Her and Helena are the ultimate tag team. But has anyone else noticed that her skin is like 6 shades lighter than it was in past games lol?

She suffers from the same type of "video game vertiligo" Vanessa Lewis and Christie Monteiro suffer.

Real black women are too scarce in fighting games. And Zack is the worst stereotype of black people ever.

Well, at least there's Niki, I think.

I understand Christie's case though, since Brazil is pretty varied, but Vanessa Lewis? Yeah, they were wrong for that one.

The only one who didn't get the "video game virtiligo" was Elena from SF.
 
So does anyone who plays Kokoro have a list of moves they think are good to use? I think I've been developing bad habits fighting some rather poorly skilled players (string-spamming) and picking up on some moves that simply aren't that useful and ignoring ones that are.

Can anyone check to see if 6PPP is actually a guaranteed unholdable stun on counter/critical hit? It seems to combo naturally on critical/counter hit.
 
i need some Pai practice big time. no one uses her and she has some good tools against good players that don't spam strings like friggin' Rig or Mila or Hitomi (god i hate Hitomi). all of Pai's counters are setups. i just don't know what to do after those counters.
 
I've been looking at videos that have been coming out, and... I'm not too crazy about the game. A lot of the characters don't move like I expect them to. It seems like they picked the wrong people to do the mocapping... There's no power. You don't see that smooth, full-body movement, the weight shifting, hip-turning explosiveness. It's very "floaty".

(Funny thing, Akira doesn't have that problem. The baji practitioner they got for him does it quite well, but I suppose AM2 can afford to do that.) but they can't afford new voice recordings for this game???

Also, most of the fighters are women, and not particularly violent, malicious ones, so my suspension of disbelief fades in and out.

Seriously, Hitomi saying a cute little "osu!" after a combo... reminds you that it's a game. A game from Japan, at that.

(I believe the technical term is that it "breaks immersion".)


But!big butt!

I am pretty sure I am saying all of this drivel because I have just been watching terrible players! I know it takes masters of the craft to make a game look good!

Youtube is full of garbage! And I can't find a video thread on FSD! And the Media section of the website isn't poppin' right now!

So! If you find some exciting gameplay with strong players, please post it in the thread!

I won't allow Youtube mashers to color my experiences with this game any longer!

I'm gonna go over to PeacefulJay's stream now and see if there's anything good...

You'll probably see me turn up on FSD in the next couple days, not saying I'm good, just saying it seems to be the resource that a lot of people here are using. I've kind of hit a wall with Helena. And when I hit a wall I try to ask an expert's opinion. The game seems great actually, they've turned the complexity up just enough. Helena however has not fared well, she seems to have really intentionally and maliciously been gutted. Seriously, nothing she has is safe at all, her damage is low, her attacks are slow, strings were gutted and I'm having trouble finding anything that takes advantage of ground bounces or sit down stuns. She actually has negative four frames on HIT for her jab. I am getting murdered by people just spamming the punch button after I hit them :/.
 
Hate that you can't buffer holds. I'm like whytf are you not holding and my character is doing a little dance with her arms. Because you can't hold when you're blocking and you have to wait for their arms to go down. -__-"

Unless I'm doing shit wrong.
 
I have to say, I think I'm attracted to Mila







because of her realistic, conventional fighting style.

She has a stop kick! Stop kicks are great.

Which website should I go to? FreeStepDodge or DOACentral? Just thought I begin my Kokoro training before I get DOA5.

FSD... Tecmo Koei Players/DOAC... DOAWorld...

... Is this community splintered???


Ours isn't like this, is it? Say it ain't so!
