I think they are both pretty damn good. I honestly can’t say which is better, but I think the animation of the water and effects dirt and water have are amazing in DoA
Anyway, what’s everyone’s favorite character so far? For me it’s Christie and Mila.
I like how its team ninja’s, the one everyone least expected got the side stepping and movement down proper and not stiff as a brick for 3d…Fucking bravo, finally and its only almost 2013
The side-step system in this game sucks and the movement options are the same as Tekken.
VF is still the only game that gets these right due to it set of rules of what can and can’t evade.Sega has been getting this right since 1996. That being said this game has its influences but at least they toned down the holds. I’ll be sticking with VF but for people who like DOA I think this is the best version of the game that I hope they enjoy for a long time.
Can you elaborate on this please. I’m going to buy the game on Saturday because of the VF characters and its similarities with VF…but if it’s closer to Tekken then it’s a not go. I’ve got nothing against Tekken, It’s just not for me.
The game is nothing like Tekken. I don’t know how someone could even make a statement like this. Don’t be swayed by all the naysayers, this is by no means a bad game. Pretty much everything people hated about DOA4 has been fixed.
Is this the thing that was in San Francisco yesterday? You know, with Master and ChosenOne and whatnot.
The.only similarities to VF are the.offensive-tech like G-Cancel, string delays and button layout. Movement wise it’s closer go Tekken in that the dashes by themselves suck, so Korean Back Dash and wave dashing are your main methods of transportation. The Free Step in this is fast though which is a nice !
Don’t go in expecting VF pokes or side step system since the strings age faster yet the side step isn’t as well defined. the side step.in this and how it works is more string specific than attack type, no?
So yeah they fixed the problems that plagued earlier games but I
Bat’s still DOA just a lot more polished. If that’s cool with you then cool, if it’s not than it’s not.
Sorry field the.typos but.on a mobile device this site is still trash so it’s hard to see thanks to the light blue back ground. Anyways don’t go expecting any real significant similarities to VF or you will be disappointed. Treat it as DOA.
Thanks for your input Femto. I think I’ll get it anyway.
What I’ve heard about this is that instead of linear moves on one hand and circulars/half-circulars on the other, there are moves that track and moves that don’t track. Now, how to tell the difference, I don’t really know right now.
Which means you are doing the testing yourself or pick up the guide which I’m sure goes through. That one dude on the front page saying that they are like VF is wrong.
So far I am really, really enjoying the game. I don’t know how, but I am transferring my skills from SF4 over to this game. It’s totally different, but I am able to somewhat adapt quite well to the new game. I never even played DoA in my life.
So this is pretty cool. I also agree with the above poster who said it is a shame that people mock this game just because it looks good. If they actually play the game, they’d notice that the game is pretty fun. It really feels like “real-time” fighting, which is way more realistic and a bit different from SF4. It’s pretty fun predicting and guessing people’s high, mid, or low attacks for counter.
In any case, WHY does this game not have it’s own sub-forum again?
Also, I’m still getting shitty connection, and this time there was nobody else home but me. I’m from California, yet I keep getting paired up with people from weird states like Conneticut.
Anyways, great game so far.
By the way, has anybody gotten a change to activate the GameStop White Angel Swimsuits? I only have the regular premium ones, do you guys know where the gamestop exclusive ones are? I bought the whole CE full edition at gamestop, so I’m expecting to get the bunny swimsuits.
Incase anyone has a problem with the boss fight, if the final boss for arcade is the same as the story, just finished the story, just mash PPPPP Then LB or for stick pppppp back+p+k and wash repeat
