I know this isn’t the greatest fighter in the world but the counters won’t be as scrubtacular as DOA3, judging from the movies I’ve seen, and isn’t bad for a fun fighter. To me this game is more VF lite (very lite) but should be fun online as already mentioned by DreamTR. Maybe my curiosity to see for myself how the game handles online has got me intrested…
Yeah, but I think its the best 3D fighter(very, very close but no cigar SC2), but not all-around, thats for sure.
I’ve got my copy preordered. Its a pity it got pushed back again though. shakes his fist in anger October 12th is the new date. I’m beginning to wonder if Team Ninja is getting off on doing that or something.
As long as everybody remember that VF4 is a more technical/deeper/more balanced game(and makes it better because of this, maybe the graphics are not as good but the rest of the game is so MUCH better then DOA U will ever be). :tup:
I wish and hope other companies go to the measures Team Ninja goes to, espicially SNK, to ensure it’s games are as good as it possibly can be on Xbox. While I don’t particularly care too much for their games, I have to give them props for going the distance when it comes to their games on Xbox. Depending on KOF’s and SFAE’s online connectivity this might be the only fighting game I play on a regular basis online. Hopefully other companies, Sega in particualar, look at what Team Ninja does with DOAU and give us an online VF with the connectivity and features on par with DOAU (assuming the hype about the online play is truly what it cracks up to be).
Yeah I’ll pick this up for the hell of it. My Main 3D game for the time being is MK Deception though. I can never play DOA for long periods of time because its so easy to win on that game just by mixing up the timing you press attack buttons and the counter button. Its definitely more fun than VF4 though. You might as well learn a real martial art instead of playing that game. My Fav 3d fighters are MK and Tekken though. I like SC2, but the sidestepping in that game makes most of the moves useless, and Xiangua is a bitch in high level play.
I’l be getting it just not on release day. I already have to beat
Final fantasy Tactics
fianl Fantasy XI
Shadow Hearts
Shadow Hearts 2 (got to love getting 2 gaems for the price of one)
MK:D (just to get MK1 and the puzzle fighter clone)
Mega Man X command mission
Then I will get DOA:U Hopefuly they will include some good downlaod ible content for it by then.
sorry i gotta put tekken on top of doa. sorry but i love its engine alot better than anything else. anyways yeah im pickin up a copy
NEW DATE: online preorder form ebgames : 25th Oct.
btw anyone who thinks this game is scrubbby, it is as you ahve assumed, you ahve not seen 2 experienced players play. I know for a fact my friends on this board DevilJin01 and BB Hood01 are some of the best Doa players out there. especially deviljin. you guys prepared to get owned . 1 on 1, im not sure i stand a chance unless i pick hayabusa and then its like what 1 out of 7 matches i might win. hes got that game down to a science.
Definitely. I’ve already got mine paid off. But now the question is do I get Mortal Kombat: Deception now… it really wasn’t part of the plan, but after my disappointing experiences with GG(and you all know CVS2 lag well enough), I’m dying to get my hands on a Fighter that runs smooth consistently. I just feel like I need some hope(and quick) for AE and Fighting Evolution. But I expect DOAU will be nice. It’s been getting a lot of hype for that, even from Team Ninja. I’m not even a huge fan of the series, but TN’s achievement leaves me excited. I think they have raised the bar.
And as someone else here said, hopefully others will follow in their footsteps in terms of implementing good net-code for Fighters.
Yea I’m getting DOAU just to experience the online mode where you join up with a group of ppl and play with the winner staying and others spectating. Now if only I could use my headset with my ps2->xbox converter
