DOA5 Ultimate/Last Round Thread

ode to Rachel

Remind me again what Sonia did. I just remember her shooting guns, getting captured, and then surrendering to the paragon of masculinity that is Ryu Hayabusa.

Grabbed a copy. Seems to be hard to find now so I got mine on the cheap, luckily.

Any tips on how to do Hayabusa’s multi throw consistently? The command is T, hcf+T then full(?) 360+T. It’s his second combo challenge. Most likely gonna play the VF characters, but I still want to be able to do this. Thanks in advance.

You can rotate multiple 360’s and sort of mash it. Just make sure you hit Throw when que is up, it’s pretty lenient tbh.

the last DLC pack ever for this game will feature costumes based on Tecmo properties.

I see Monster Hunter, NINja Gaiden NES, and I don’t recognize the other one.

What?

Oh, I meant MONSTER RANCHER.

you remember Android 18 breaking Vegeta’s arm

Nobody posted the last pack trailer?

Also, NEC is finally coming

"There will be an announcement once the prizes are given to the champions on Dec. 17th. "

:o =)

End of support for DOA5 and deconfirmation of DOA6 for now.

Why would they make such an announcement after a tournament, they couldn’t have thought such news would be well recieved. It was the WORST place to do it.

I think it’s better to do it that way then to just let the game die quietly tbh

Supposedly this type of announcement would’ve went over far better in Japan and thought it’d be fine to do here too.

Eh, the announcement was fine. It thanked those in attendance and on stream for helping in showing off the great fighting game that DOA5 is over the past 7 years of competition. The team was thankful for their support. The Dead or Alive team is currently active (read between the lines: They’re working on DOA6 but aren’t ready to show it at this time), and they look forward to meeting everyone again soon.

The NinjaCW memorial was a sad note, should have been done earlier, but glad it was done. He was a great friend to me personally, and I’ll always miss him and what he brought to the FGC.

Well this is an interesting bit of news:

Inviting our fighters to celebrate 22 years of the iconic fighting series, DEAD OR ALIVE (DOA), KOEI TECMO Europe is excited to announce, “DEAD OR ALIVE EVO Showdown 2018” at Evolution Championship Series 2018 (EVO 2018) from the 3rd to the 5th August 2018, featuring DEAD OR ALIVE 5 Last Round! This grand celebration of the DOA fighting franchise will offer fans the opportunity to meet fellow competitors and gain access to some exclusive merchandise which will only be available at EVO 2018.

“To the DOA fans and fighting game fans, thanks to you all we are proudly announcing that DEAD OR ALIVE 5 Last Round will take part in the world’s largest fighting game festival EVO.

5 years have passed since the DOA5 series started and it’s been played by more than 10 million gamers. Meanwhile, the DOA community has expanded to become larger than ever before.

To proceed to the next stage, we announced the end of the DOA5 series in December, but to my surprise the god of fighting games has given us another chance to let players enjoy this franchise at an event once more.

Though it’s a side tournament, the fact that DOA is joining EVO itself is key, and something which we have been longing for over 10 years.

So, I hope you will join and enjoy the show!”

For those who are ready for the challenge and wish to enter this unforgettable showdown will be able to register at a later date; more details will follow in the coming weeks. Fans who wish to join the celebrations are able to register for tickets on the EVO official website in the coming weeks; a further registration will be required for entrance to the special tournament held at the event.
