DOA5: Lei Fang vs Zack

I hope Zack has this costume:

Is the clown any worse than the teletubby?

To me, yeah. I understand it was just to fit the motif of the stage but it just doesn't fit Zack. Hopefully the rest of the cast has a circus outfit as well though.

In other news, Lei Fang looks like Kristin Kreuk. I'll leave the rest to everybody else.

Only slightly, made even moreso by the fact it's his default. As such, when he appears in game as picked by the CPU he'll be the sockless Homey the Clown. It's not a dealbreaker, but it does grate on my nerves.

Comparing Zack to Homey is an insult to Homey. Homey don't play dat shit.
 
Both Lei Fang's outfits so far are pretty cool. I actually don't even really mind Zack's clown outfit, though it does look better without the red afro. It's better than Ivy's gold catsuit in SCV, though I don't think it should be his default
 
yeah, what is it about Hitomi's face? I could never quite put my finger on it. Like, it's not right, but sometimes it looks fine, but sometimes it gives me the chills.
 
Is Zack supposed to look like Hard Gay? Between his glasses, his facial hair, and his "yahoooo" I can't help but see Razer Ramone HG in a red fro.

some people just have a keen eye and notice things some people just overlook. I have a knack for seeing things. Its also called being anal.

for example, you say you have the demo so try this. on the Character select screen, pick Ryu and cos1, and then pick Ayane and cos1. dont press anything so it wont start the game, but youll notice a screentear over where her boobs are as the animation plays out. you can press B after she poses and select her again and the same thing will happen.

Its super minor little things but its there. Maybe the final versions will be identical but I doubt it. NG3 has practically the same differences.

Now that you point it out, I totally see it. And some screen tearing in the intro movie between Ayane and Hayabusa. lol

If the game plays anything like DOA2 I'll be in heaven. It already looks good...but I'm questioning Team Ninja after Ninja Gaiden 3. They messed up way too many things in that series.

Different teams. Hayashi's Ninja Gaiden team is an entirely different entity from from Shimbori's DOA team, even if it's all Team Ninja. And thankfully, Hayashi doesn't seem to have nearly as much sway here as he did with NG3.
 
I only now just noticed that Hitomis top white top is see through after getting wet with sweat after a long match.....hell yeah, they took perverted DOA to a whole new level.
Not only do we have revenge of Boob physics 2.0, but we also have sweat and clothes getting wet....what more could a pervert want.

I must admit this game is alot easier to pick up and play than DOA4.
And i like the dynamic movelist feature, im having a ball trying to pull off all the combos without Ryu kicking my ass.

In terms of graphics it is an amazing looking game arguably top tier for fighters, SC5 has it beat only in terms of resolution and AA, models is alittle hard to place, cuz some of SC5s models are pretty damn detailed and we havent seen all the DOA5 characters and costumes yet..
DOA5 seems to go sub-HD or turn the AA off entirely at times, its especially noticeable when you are on the lower section of the demo stage with all the crazy shit going on in the background.
But during win animations the game looks smooth as silk.

I pray by the time this reaches retail level they will have gotten the resolution and/or AA locked down, cuz the aliasing can be a bit distracting.(Ive been PC gaming too long)
Note. Im playing the 360 version.

P.S I have not even bothered trying to play as Ryu or Hayate, in the final built ill probably ignore the men too.

The audience in the background are sprites and look awful! Team Ninja really has slipped since Itagaki left. The level design is kinda interesting though!

She also has the exact same stance as SF4 Chun.

I wouldn't say that. Chun Li is more upright. Lei Fang leans back and her arms are constantly moving. Lei Fang's stance is more defensive than Chun's, which makes sense given the Tai Chi Style. The similarities are because they're both chinese, have a similar outfit and hairstyle.

Itagaki is a hack. His last good contribution to the series was with DOA 2. Him leaving Tecmo was the best thing that could've happened to the series.

Agreed, except I'd say DoA3.1.

And he's not a hack, since he made NG. I just don't think his game design philosophy makes for a competitive fighter.

I guess I was a bit harsh. Ninja Gaiden Black was awesome. I think he gets a bit too much credit though.. mostly stemming from things he says rather than the quality of his games. He's more miss than hit to me.

Probably not. In fact, there's been a lot of signs over the years that would showcase that Itagaki probably had contempt for fighting games and fans of the genre. Part of the reason DOA4 was delayed and then significantly changed so much, was because Itagaki didn't like the way "people were playing his game".

I definitely agree. :)

I believe he is responsible for DoA4 sucking so hard. I couldn't be happier that he is gone for DoA5.

I do, however, believe NG3 would've been a good game were he around.
