Dead or Alive 6 |OT| Still a Fighter

Then you turn the damn violence off. Don't make it so that it doesn't work even if you turn it on.
I have no quarter for this given DOA4 had the ninjas chopping people in half in endings and given the entirety of the Ninja Gaiden franchise. Blood is nothing new. And disabling the face punch for just those 3 only feeds into the "they're not really 18" thing.

Was watching him on Twitch when a discussion broke out in chat about the game's exclusion from EVO. He said that SJWs are ruining gaming and a bunch of other shit. Typical bigot talk.
Seriously, we already have an option dedicated to toggling close ups, along with a bunch of other visual elements that can be adjusted for the sake of player preference. This is a half-step that wasn't needed. Hell, make it a toggle for those three specific characters for all those bleeding hearts.
Big yikes.
Just browsing the FSD forums is enough for me not to want to associate with the competitive doa community. This isn't uncommon sentiment or language there.
Any pros at all you can recommend I follow on Twitch? I just want some high-level play to watch sometimes without having to deal with undesirables like this guy.
I got the free version.
I still get only 1 bar online opponents, just like in the beta. I restarted the game too (it was not ever in sleep mode). The 1 bar opponents aren't really even 1 bar matches in quality either, just occasionally sluggish.
...I won 1 match out of I don't know how many. I already forgot everything I learned in the beta. Oh well.
I got 5 or 6 in my short session earlier today

Sonicfox and twiggles. Emeryreigns seems pretty cool, but I just started following him.
It might be kwiggles, actually.
Nah, don't engage in slander like this. Several people had to be bounced out of FSD for going on tirades and unironically linking to One Angry Gamer and the like. It's a much of a mix of people and views as it is on this site.
This game was not rushed for Final Round.
It's not even the wifi players that cause the issue. Yes, playing on wifi sucks, but it's the netcode doing most of the work here. I have a friend on wifi who I play in SC6 all the time. It's not an amazing connection, but it's very playable. On DOA6 it's an unplayable mess.
I'm not trying to be mean in any way, but if you aren't noticing any lag, you're not good enough at the game yet. There's absolutely no connection in this game that is serviceable at a competitive level. Casually? Sure, no problem. But you can't react 90% of the time playing online in this game.
For most people DOA is just one big guessing game, even in competitive play. But I absolutely hate guessing, so I react to things. Something like Hitomi's 2H+K or Hayabusa's 4H+K I wait until I see it, then counter or block accordingly. You can't do that most of the time online. Then you add the input buffering and the dropped inputs and altogether that's why the online in DOA6 is the worst this generation (aside from DOA5).
Fatal Rush is unsafe if you block it, and if it's blocked or misses, you have to stop after the first attack. When it does hit, it scales the combo considerably. If you see someone using more than one hit of the Fatal Rush, chances are they aren't maximizing their damage. Finally, meter builds like crazy in this game, so more often than not you should have meter to use a Break Hold and get out of the Fatal Rush stun.
1st time playing this series since 4. Trying out the free core version to see if I enjoy it. What do you guys think of it compared to something like soul caliber 5 as my main fighting game timesink?
I like Diego a lot, thoughts on him are welcome too.

This game is super fun. I enjoyed the beta but online play isn't usually my cup of tea -- filthy casual here.
Core Fighters release is super nice... Hitomi's been my favorite since her debut in DOA3, so having her included in the free roster kinda rules.
Tbh having access to a few of the single player modes and my favorite character in Core Fighters may have sold me on a full copy. I'm contemplating buying it tomorrow.

If the game was not rushed dor final round, the management got bigger issues than I thought before.
Sometimes I wonder with developers and publishers, they can be strange human beings.
To see bad stuff happen before and repeat it? Nah that is unforgivable.

Core fioghters seems to have brought a lot of people in from other FGs. I played on pc for the first time today and at the low ranks a lot of people had pretty good fg fundamentals (blocking highs and lows) but not good doa fundamentals (wake up kicks game, holds, throw punishes)
Could be, it's just weird that I notice it in Tekken right away. Then again I'm a LOT better in Tekken than in DoA.
Haha, sounds like we had a fight! This hold stuff is totally new to me and I catch myself still very often pushing that throw button like a punch button (I'm not used to have a throw on that button).
As someone very active on FSD I respectfully disagree. That's not common sentiment or language there. People like that are faster gone than Ryu could Izuna drop them. In fact, most of the very active people there seem to be more casual players discussing all day about costumes, hairstyles and their favorite waifus and husbandos. And the game's visuals...that would be me, lol.
Well they're pretty different games so hard to say :p . But I doubt you won't like it.
It has some nice single player modes, so you'll have some content to go through.
Diego is great for beginners. Really accessible moveset and pretty strong. His character design just doesn't feel really DOA.
Wow.........that's a stupid decision. I'm sure a lot of people are willing to buy a few costumes for their mains, but not an entire DLC pack which includes costumes they aren't going to use.No, I doubt that this is the actual reason. Case in point: I just noticed that you can purchase the costumes invidiually on the Japanese PSN. They cost 216 Yen a piece. Why can't we do the same in other regions? I'm sorry Koei Tecmo, but what the hell are you doing? I hope they allow for this in other reagions in the near futur as well. But somehow I doubt it, as I don't see any reason why they wouldn't do this day 1...
Luckily I bought the Deluxe Edition from the HK Store, where the individual costumes are also available for purchase. I only need the Nyotengu wedding dress for now.
FoV settings in photo mode causes a lot of hair dithering :/
Yeah, the transparency of hair and the DoF effect don't mesh well. It ruins a lot of the photos that I am trying to take. :/
Well, I played the shit out of DOA4 and was a Zack/Jann Lee main, so Diego seems up my alley.
Any big changes from DOA4 I should know about? Seems to be some kind of super meter now.
Has anyone unlocked the DOA6 stage music yet? Do you have to unlock all the other tracks first or something?
Two hours into playing DOA6 and I'm already feeling like this IRL every time I see a Marie Rose. At least I'm already good at thrashing them.
Not without Cheat Engine. It looks like there's a bug and you can't unlock Tina's track from DOA1.

Back+special does a Hold that counters high, mids and lows. And you can use it if you get fatal rushed. It uses 50% of your meter.
Fatal rush is a combo that starts high, tracks sidesteps but is slow. Use special button with no other inputs to use it. If you have 100% meter the you do a break blow on the 4th hit.
You can also do break blow if you do forward and special button.
Check the tutorials for more info, they go through everything you need to know :)
Apparently Lobbies were already there from the start but are a bit buggy.

Does it also work if you invite them from your friend list (as opposed to them choosing join)?
I need to try this tonight!Apparently Lobbies were already there from the start but are a bit buggy.

Hey at least lobbies being in a debug state shows that they tried to implement it. Glass half full.
edit:
Other than that, it's 4-way holds and the usual DOA system. It's close to DOA5 in many ways really. It has a lot of tutorials too, so nothing to worry about, especially if you've ever played DOA.
Thanks for the link!
If the other is Kula, probably. I'm sure it'll apply to Mai though.
edit:
The gauge is the big difference yeah (explained in the OP).
