People, this cast is based on worldwide preferences, not just Japan's. We all had an opportunity to make our voices heard. I see too many people thinking Marie Rose is a Japanese thing when she was number 1 in pretty much every region.

No, the vote was Japan + asia only. Themes in the west were there but didn't count. Will help them for the next version though.

I still went and bought American themes for Rachel and Tina, even though I knew they didn't count, just so that my voice may be heard. I would be using them, but the constant wave noise kinda drives me insane.

Why though

She looks like a kid and Doa had been know for big busts since Day 1 and she well ...

I can understand Honoka being up there. I really don't understand the popularity of a character who looks like she is still going through puberty. I don't know man it just looks wrong from all sides especially with the kind of game this is

Are you sure? I thought they were very explicit about North American votes not being counted. The game is not even announced for America or Europe.

Really? Last I heard, TN were using worldwide themes. Maybe I had it wrong then. Regardless, Marie Rose was first worldwide anyways.

I think you answered your own question. All other characters have the same body type minus one or two. If you like a little less bust you have no options but Marie Rose. I don't know why it is a surprise. All votes are split, but if you want less bust you only have 1 option. Now you have 8 other girls with huge breasts and 1 without. Not some huge conspiracy.

Bleh. Can't belive a real woman like Milla didn't make it yet Marie Rose did. She is like 3 years old. Pretty much a baby.

Well at least Honoka was number 2.

I can't get over people who love Honoka and shit on Marie Rose. Thanks for giving me a good laugh jrod.

I got pretty much everybody that I wanted except for Lei Fang in place of Helena.
(yes, Marie Rose is great and Hitomi is my fave)

Really interested to see how they'll use the VR in this.

Lmao @ people confused about the poll results.

What, people didn't expect that a game series built around creepy voyeurism would attract a certain demographic of unsavory perverts?

The 'H' stands for hentai.
Helena is in, so Sale +1

Though I do find it funny it is majority Japanese, 2 half white/Half Japanese girls, and 2 white girls.

Also, I can't blame Japan because the USA and European results are THE SAME THING, just in different orders.

Thing that drives me crazy about Marie Rose is that I'd love to see a small chested woman in DoA as that's more my thing, but what we got was a small chested girl. One who really has no business being in a swimsuit game.

I hope now that they've covered the two main Japanese fetish characters with Marie and Honoka we can get something more interesting next time. Rig and Mila were such awesome characters to debut in DoA5 vanilla. I hope DoA6 brings something similar.

I'd really love an older, serious woman like The Boss from MGS3. That would be awesome. Leon is a shit character, give her his moveset like Nyotengu took Tengu's (another shit character redeemed through gender reassignment). Considering how the girls above the age of 21 ('old hags' apparently lol) fared in the vote, I doubt it will ever happen.

So what exactly is a savory pervert? Are there different levels of pervert? Like does it go from E tier to S tier?

How do I get Foxhound code pervert? Maybe I'm forever an Octopus code pervert.

Maybe like Pervert Enthusiast, where you'd appreciate the overall form of the naked body and bring out the best of the nude model through proper lighting and whatnot, or a lazy pervert, where you just slap giant breasts on everything in a cheap attempt for sex appeal, even if the model has average sized breasts.

I wanna thank Momma and Jesus and everyone who believed in me! I'm going to Disneyland...so long as I stay 50 yards from the kids.
 
The even more correct answer since they've stated they won't do character DLC is to release full-price updated retail versions of the game in the future to keep revenue fresh.

And you believe them?. I can't help to think this is going to be the business model for this game:

-Vanilla retailer version for Japan [Spring 2016]
-DLC girls for Japan [Spring 2016 to Q1 2017]
-Complete retail version for Japan and the rest of the world [Spring 2017]
-More DLC until the game dies.

4) WEARABLE WITH GLASSES

The bespectacled among you can breathe easy: the Morpheus’s 1080p head-mounted display and 5-inch LCD panel (offering 960xRGBx1080 resolution per eye and 90-degree field view) can be used while donning your own specs.

well obviously it does. About 50% of people use glasses or contacts so I am certain that the VR isn't in your face enough to prevent you from wearing glasses.

Yes.
I think all 3 major headsets accommodate for glasses (i assume as long as you don't particularly exotic frames).
The percentage of people with glasses is so massive, that it'd be absurd not to, frankly.
--
Speaking of the game why is it that they don't include all characters? Is it that hard to swap a model for another or what? I only played the first one of these, but i remember the stuff the characters did to be pretty basic, and all DoA characters look alike, more or less, it's not like Tekken where one character is a Kangaroo and another is a giant robot.
Tell that to the movies theaters and their stupid 3D glasses .( End rant )

Yes you can, and headset has good ergonomic solution for making more space for glasses. Check out Tested videos of Project Morpheus, both Will and Norm wear glasses and both of them were very happy with it.

Thanks all of you for the replies. Very helpfull.
 
I think the surest sign that this vote didn't count Western votes is, look at who made it and who didn't -- of the nine characters in the game, all seven Japanese or half-Japanese characters made it into the game, while only two of the non-Japanese characters made the list. I know many of the most popular female DOA characters are Japanese, but still, seeing all seven of them finish above all non-Japanese characters other than Marie Rose shows who was voting, not Westerners. I mean, Momiji is cool, but she'd never finish above Tina or Lisa in a worldwide vote, I think.


But more importantly, will DOA3 have actual decent gameplay this time? I have the first two games, they're pretty bad volleyball games. Beach Spikers for the GC absolutely destroys DOA XBV as a volleyball game, and the second game isn't much better. And as for the other modes, the jetski racing in the second game is too limited to be as fun as it should be (you should at least be allowed to choose your track!), and there's nothing else other than some mediocre minigames and casino games I don't care about one bit.

Oh, and the "give presents to the other girls" thing is too obtuse for me to care about it much; I send them things, they often send them back, there is no feedback as to why. The clues about what to send are uselessly obscure unless you play the games far more than they deserves You can't really interact with the other girls beyond sending them gifts and trying to partner with other girls, it's ridiculously obtuse and awful. But that's DOAX in a nutshell, a collection of bad gameplay modes tossed together that's popular... why? Just the fanservice?

I like the main Dead or Alive fighting game series quite a bit, despite the overdone fanservice -- the DOA series is my favorite 3d fighting game franchise, or at least they're the 3d fighters I have the most fun playing. They have fantastic gameplay. But the DOAX games are kind of terrible, and I don't quite get why people like them -- sure, they have the DOA girls in them in bathing suits, but don't you need actual gameplay to want to play a game much? I've tried to play both games several times, but they are so incredibly boring thanks to the bad gameplay that they aren't much fun at all. DOAXBV and DOAX2 are bad games.

Of course, given that in my opinion DOA5 is a worse fighting game than DOA2 through 4 are, I'm not expecting too much; the new Team Ninja's got nothing on the old one. (To be clear DOA5 is a good game, it's just less good than the previous ones, DOA1 excepted. The graphics and art design aren't as good as DOA4, either.)

Funny you should mention that

According to the wikia
1. Marie Rose - Age 18
2. Honoka - Age 18
3. Kasumi - Age 19
4. Ayane - Age 18
5. Kokoro - Age 19
6. Nyotengu - Age 1018 (???)
7. Hitomi - Age 20
8. Momiji - Age 21
9. Helena - Age 23

Guess Tina, Lisa, and Christie being mid 20's made them a bit too old.

On the note of character ages, one of the few better things about DOA5 compared to the past games was the two-year timeskip -- Ayane being 16 and Kasumi 17, as they are by the ages stated in the games from DOAs 1 through 4, was a bit creepy conceptually even if the actual characters don't look anywhere remotely that young. (The Western versions of those games censor their ages out, but the Japanese versions list their ages.)

Can't wait to buy doa3 extreme and my VR headset, hopefully my game shop has a nice discrete brown paper bag I can carry them home in.

Anyone watching the niconico live stream? It's almost 2am, I don't understand a word but they're doing a countdown of every character in detail I gather. Hayashi looks happy!
