Dead or Alive 5

I’m actually excited for this!! Wonder how the environment will interact with the fights

after the video fades out, this is my guess of what happened, hayate kicked ryu off and then he got hit by a car

if they do it right, fighting with the environment could actually be a good way to differentiate DOA from other fighting games

i know there are lots of technical differences in a lot of the 3D fighting games, but if you ask me, tekken and VF are too similar

you want power stone you should take a look at anarchy reigns… that s*** is going insane

It all depends on whether or not the environment starts to heavily favor certain characters over others. Once that happens, then we have a problem.

Really looking forward to this game.DoA4 was my first fighting that I played pretty seriously,that was before vanilla,so I am glad to see another on the way :smiley:

I also hope they redesign some characters. It’s DOA5 now, I don’t want to see the same look over and over again.

For god’s sake I hope they do a better job balancing the game than DOA 4. It was basically Ninja Tier, and Everybody Else Tier. They really need to pay attention to grapplers this time around and improve their throw system in general.

I am so excited for this game. It’ll be, what 7 years in 2012 since DOA 4 came out?

I hope Lisa returns and they buff her sorry ass properly. Such a cool character design, imo, that was hindered by ass slow normals and, for a grappler, a lack of grabs. Lulz!

I wonder how the counter system will be. The one thing I loved about the DOA games were mixup combos were fast as hell. In most 3-d fighters, you can easily see a high to low mixup, or mid to low mixup. In DOA, everything is so damn fast it could be hard to read, not to mention a lot of mids looked like fucking highs, and vice versa.

Agreed, for a person of her race, her ass isn’t bootylicious enough… oh wait, wrong ass.

What race was she anyways? I remember back in the day there was heated debate about her. Some argued puerto rican, others hispanic, others black, others black and hispanic. Or even a dark skinned Japanese girl lol

Interview with Yosuke Hayashi

It would seem they are pulling back on the fun bags :frowning:

From my research (aka, checked the wiki) she’s supposedly African-American.

Tengu is another character that is underrated, such a clever design then Itagaki goes crazy and makes you fight Genra at a stupid angle and then the super lame Alpha152… haven’t played the game in years yet the name Alpha152 fills me with rage.

Blame the recession

WHY!:sad:

They were really thinking out of the box when it came to Lisa. An african american woman who is a former DOATEC scientist and just happens to moonlight as a luchador. That Japan. . . .

Looks like they are pulling a WWE and reducing the T & A budget.

This a travesty

Fuck, first Soul Calibur cuts down on the breasts and now DOA.

sends out the Rumble Roses signal

Edit- Actually just read the article, seems more like he’s implying the girls are going to look “good” as opposed to just tits. Maybe a reference about how they’ve dropped the doll like look to go for this more realistic approach.’’

Hilarious that someone already called it on the 1st page.

The interview sounded like the things Itagaki says.

Yay… I’ve always liked the DOA series and the characters, then my focus shifted more towards SF, Tekken etc after DOA3. Hopefully Lisa/La Mariposa is in it, I love her overall design.
