Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate

[AKNova7]

Oh... shit...

Genuine apocalypse happening... under the radar...

Gotta pay attention to these things. It wouldn't be super-bad, but, just, good series without online passes are helpful. Like I said, just hit Team Ninja's and Tecmo's twitter hard, ask for no passes on DoA5. I want this game to be great, and finally possibly competitive. Spread the word! lol. (My, first real fighting game was DoA3. Gotta support childhood games.)

Throws are escapable, right? But if your opponent does a hold and you throw them, they can't escape?

Only neutral throws are escapable (5F+P), any directional input throw (even 6F+P or 2F+P) is inescapable. The neutral throws seem useless but are the fastest throws in the game. Some more powerful command grabs come out much slower, and have a much worse (longer) recovery animation on whiff.

SFII was mine, but DOA3 was the game that got me back into all this stuff. V excited about 5. Not excited about online passes.

EA have paved the way for the future of 100% subscription gaming. Competition needs to stay strong or it will quickly become the norm

I agree. This online pass thing needs to be fought. The last people I want to go to the dark side, is Team Ninja.

can some attack moves be stepped or do they all track?

Huh. Thanks.

English dubbing is horribad... but, the feel I'm getting right now is 90s Hong Kong action movie, so I suppose it fits.

(Hitomi says "I'm on fire!" when she wins.

... welp)

And I don't quite understand... I'm still salivating at the thought of full frame data, online, for free, for everyone's use, and yet apparently DOA gets a bad rap for not being competitive?
