Aside from a less than desirable online netcode, DOA5 is fantastic. Much less bullshit than DOA4. Don't let haters (i.e Animefreak...) deter your judgment on the game. Try it out and see if you like it. I'm having a blast myself trying to find different ways to set up critical bursts and powerblows. The nerf on holds is a welcome addition, and yes you can still hold within people's strings (not NC's though).

I did a critical burst combo into a power blow in training last night!
Force have you tried pp6pp, kk, 6p+k for Ayane? It should burst, but the critical strike just sets up a brand new stun. I don't understand.
I'm finally starting to figure out how to play this instead of just mashing p's and k's and random directions. .

Wow, this thread has really imploded on itself.
GGS UnderX btw, my bad if I pissed you off.
I like the game, but....
Being a mainly Tekken/SC player, the fact that I can't hit an opponent on the ground after a combo is dumb. It doesn't matter what I do, I can never really get in and fight like I would want to. So I end up playing cat and mouse with my opponent almost every fucking time I fight online. The ground game is horrible. Imma find a way around it though lol.
And like everyone else, it's EXTREMELY rare to experience a real 5 bar on this game, a 5 bar feels like a SCV 3 bar. And also, my inputs sometimes mess up and I eat 50% of my heath cause I couldn't counter shit cause of the lag. Hopefully the patch fixes this.
It's also kind of messed up how you can throw a person out of a whiffed hold. I understand it cause of the Triangle System and I sometimes use it to my advantage but in a game so stun heavy, a Critical Stun combo ending with an unfinished string that goes into a throw launch into ANOTHER guaranteed combo is unbearable to fucking look at especially when it's done to me. I can't tell you how many times people would do some dumb string, and I expect to hold the last hit and the grab me out of my hold. (can you break grabs in this game?)
Lastly, my take on this is (yeah I might be late on this), if you don't particularly like the game, don't play it. Going as far as criticizing over things that really should be fixed like the netcode, or system flaws, etc. is great in my book. But talking shit about a game that literally JUST CAME OUT is pointless. What qualifies you to even say anything about the game? Your not a high level player and they know this game in and out. If you don't particularly like something, instead of bitching about it, find a way around it. If there is no way, make a petition and try and get it fixed. Nuff said.
A little over two weeks into this expansive ass game and yall fuckers (you know who you are) want to sit and whine like little children.

I know what you mean, I always want to be on top of my opponent all the time but I can't :(
It's like VF5 I just back off then rush in then knock them down repeat.
