Dead or Alive 5

Awesome news I had feared I’d never get to play as Jann Lee again. I’m kinda glad Itagaki has gone, the new gritty look looks great!

Please please for the love of all that is good, don’t turn this into a juggling game, freaking hate DOA4 for that.

Bring back :f:+ :b: counters

This game looks awesome lol

It’s great to see a new DOA being made. I used to run the fighting game division it the PMS clan and DOA4 was the main game. I still have DOA 4 and play it once in a while for fun. The gameplay has to be well done. I used the juggling a lot when I played Helena as my main,so the juggling in the gameplay is no concern to me.

For PS3? Sign me up!

Fighting entertainment indeed. lol

I hated the counter system for DOA3.

It was very a herp derp way to stop from making gorgeous combos. :open_mouth:

A new DoA that’s not a launch title for a newly release console? Color me surprised. Please Tecmo, don’t make this DoA4 again

Wait! I get to use under-aged girl ninjas again! SIGN ME UP!

Hopefully it’s nowhere near as stupid as DOA4,and it uses DOA1-3 mechanics. Those 3 are pretty good games, but I didn’t like DOA4 at all…

One of the stupid things about 4 was that they gave A Ninja better command grabs than a grappler.

surprised no one has said something like “DOA5 for EVO2012!!!”:rofl:

seems like every FG announced is being demanded to be included … good luck!

More like “DOA5 Evo 2014”. The footage is pre-alpha. It should take at least two years for this to drop.

Definitely gonna keep an eye on this, DOA 4 was the first fighter I got to play on a relatively serious level so ill keep my eye on 5. It might not be the most tournament respected fighter, but its fun as hell and thats really all that matters. Plus doa 4 still has some of the best online modes of any fighting game to date and maybe 5 will further push the envelope.

Hohohooo shit Bayman here I come :woot:

Didn’t you know that the DOA community hates offline tourneys? And that DOA4 was one of EVO’s biggest flop of all time?

It’s such a good time to be a fighting game fan!

I always believed DOA5 would be released someday, but I’m still very surprised seeing a gameplay teaser so shortly after DOAD was released.

Hoping for my main Helena to be in it again.

Cos we want Power Stone for EVO2012!! :rock:

From what I’ve seen whenever a developer shows off Pre Alpha, they are usually nearing the end of their alpha stage. So, this time next year I expect the game to be out.

Waits for Yusuke Hayashi to announce that “We don’t think big titties is what gamers want outta of DoA anymore”

I been waiting for this day to come. My hype meter reached 99%

[RIGHT]Boobies![/RIGHT]

I just hope this time the girls look like girls instead of weird alien dolls. It would also be great if they actually had different facial features. The girls in DOA always freaked me out.
But judging by that “I’m a fighter” picture they released, none of this is going to happen.

The game is still played seriously even with the counter system. The amount of people it’s played by seriously is a different story.

DOA was my first fighting game that I took with any level of seriousness competitively (DOA2) and the old Tekken/VF dudes made so many complaints about how the fighting worked even before the counter system. If you want a lot of people to play this game seriously, changing up the counter is the first of many steps they’d have to do. Which if you take all of those steps into account then the game basically plays like Tekken or VF and then people won’t play it cuz it plays too much like other shit. The game engine is already glorified VF as it is.
