    One thing I wanna say is. While I do think a costume ban is a lil much, while watching FR it did make watching the stream a better experience to see them fighting while wearing normal clothes instead of those string bikinis and whatnot. And I can only imagine anyone else seeing the game on stream would take it a lil more serious than to tune in and see damn near topless, g-string wearing girls fighting and going "what the fuck is this shit?".

    Just up to the players on how they want others to perceive their game. But, it is hard to watch and take seriously when the females are damn near naked out there, lol.. I came up with this conclusion after watching the FR tournament on YouTube. And not sayin TN should stop making that kind of DLC.

    I couldn't care less what they do. Just an opinion.

    The soft costume ban is completely sensible for the same reason commentators try not to swear on stream even though they always do when talking to each other casually. I can't believe there was so much uproar about it.

    It's not like anyone is saying you can't use those costumes at home.

    When the news came out of FSD, yes it did caused an uproar. Especially with people who DON'T even play this game competitively.

    The soft-ban is an optional rule if TOs can use it or not. No one cared about it during Final Round, and also not many top players use these type of costumes anyway. It really didn't matter, and like I said earlier: the people who don't play this game competitively made a big deal out of nothing.

    Other than that, the top 16 was good. That one dude (e-mann/mc static) made Kokoro look incredible.

    I hope they do away with that one stage though (as far as tournaments), the new one with all those lit up squares that makes characters bounce high and puts em in power launch height when they get knocked off. It just looks so unfair to watch someone lose like that. Taking a whole life bar because the stage re-floats you so high and you can repeat till they're dead. It's not "hype", it's wack.

    Just an outsider's opinion.

    That stage is too overpowered in competetive play, i mean i feel bad for the guy/gal who gets juggled on that stage.

    The health in DOA is basically 300HP, so it's fine. Danger Zone won't be banned, since it's not that much game-breaking.

    The only time we had stage bans in DOA were DOATEC Germany in DOA2 Ultimate (Death Combos are possible with certain characters since normal health was 240HP), Experimental Playground in DOA4 (Messed up physics), Ends of the Earth in DOA5 Vanilla (because of the constant slip stun caused by mid attacks, but it was fixed around 1.03), and Dojo in ALL DOA games (No danger zones, or positional advantages).

    To anyone in London, we've been having weekly sessions on Fridays for the game. Since there's been growing interest from Tekken players, it would be good if more people could join up and help each other out.

    Edit: forgot to say both Tekken and VF players.

    Anybody know or have an idea when Ninja Pack 3 costume set is set to release? I know it's in april. I'm so looking forward to a new costume for Sarah (and Pai)

    NP3 should be next month. The packs have been releasing once a month and it was set to come out after the SKP.

    Also, DOA PC is fun (and beautiful). I hope they patch in the "Soft Engine" and the 2 stages soon.

    Can someone direct me to some learning resources for this game(Last round)? Getting blown to shreds by established player is going to be a long hard road and I don't want it to be my only learning tool.

    And yes, I'm totally a dick for asking here instead of a DoA forum.

    tbh, i think the available learning material is pretty bad, personally (aside from very specific forum posts on FSD). They arent very helpful at all in figuring out how the system flows. They are mainly good for learning combos, and even then, not really, since DoA combos arent real combos anyway (but are usually demonstrated to new players as "combos").

    Before, when I was learning DoA4 and 5 on several occasions trying to figure out the wierd system mechanics and all, the videos, tutorials, and such only made things more confusing. I literally had to figure it all out myself before things made sense.

    I was thinking, if there was a true DOA vs VF. I think when it comes to gameplay. The animations should be realistic like VF. But the holds should be able to be reversed like the escape throw commands from VF as in put in 2 certain directional buttons. I think it could work like that.
    Thoughts?

    People should be torrenting this pile of shit not buying, I'm very disappointed in those who are supporting this PC release in full price. Vote with your wallet guys, this is NOT OK by them.

    Damn. I hadn't seen much at all and i thought i must just be looking in the wrong places. Think i'm a bit spoiled by VFDC. I've been watching Acho and Kouhastu match vids to pick things up. Not the best way to learn but i'm getting tidbits and it's quite enjoyable.

    I like this vid. (Learning Helena)

    I guess a much nicer way of putting it is that (from my personal perspective, as I can't/don't speak for everyone) the VFDC crowd checking out this thread isn't very interested in theory-crafting a hypothetical version of a DOA x VF game. Not that it's not welcome, but I don't think many people here are interested in that.

    As for why, there's a bunch of reasons, not the least of which is do we (concerning VF fans) even want a DOA x VF game. There's plenty of DOA players that would love to see it (and they kinda already have it with DOA5 series), but there arent many bonafide VF players who'd be excited about it imo
