Cheers.
Not on there site at the moment, but is mentioned on twitter. As Team A has Christie in it I will be pre-ordering there.
Amazon UK has the Team D DLC pack as a pre-oreder bonus.
Checked other UK sites and didn't find any other pre-order bonuses.
And will the US get the idols costumes as pre order bonuses as well?
Speaking for myself, my emotional attachment to playing the character I like is always refreshing with each new costume, especially when the ones I really like are available or announced to become available. That may sound weird to some people, but screw them. New, exciting costume keeps me goin'.
Speaking hitboxes, I do hope they fix a few wonky ones 5 has. There are times there's a good foot or two between the attacking fist/knee/foot/head/shoulder/etc and any part of the other character model yet the strike still hits. I notice it a lot with Gen Fu and occasionally Mila and plenty of other characters but idk maybe I'm the only one that's having trouble with it.
The game not being at EVO should be an indicative that something went wrong gameplay-wise.
Alternate costumes always add to replay value.
I have this issue constantly. But the exact opposite, where my characters limbs will be flat sticking out the other side of my opponent's body, but completely whiffing. No contact, not connecting, just my limbs passing through them as if they were a ghost.
That's why I hate the "learn hitboxes" argument. Why can't I just learn to hit the OPPONENT and have that actually work?
While i'm actually in agreement with the rest of your post, I do feel the need to point out that Evo includes things like Smash Bros and Marvel vs Capcom, which are nothing BUT wrong gameplay wise due to being party fighters. So choices for evo seem to be based almost entirely on popularity, not so much on actual gameplay.
There is no reason not to include them in the US pre order. Besides practically every game has some sort of pre order bonus so I'm sure we will get them in the DOA5U pre order as well.
If not, this will be my reaction
That is true
EVO 2013 had a vote on facebook asking people what games they wanted to see there and whatever the top (I think 10) games with the most votes would make it to EVO which got games like Super Street Fighter 4 Arcade Edition, Tekken Tag Tournament 2, Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3, Persona 4 Arena and more in due to fans support. And that's why it is important that people get interested in DOA5U and show more support for it. That's what got the games I mentioned at EVO and that's what got games like Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo and Skullgirls as runner ups. So hopefully when they do it again for EVO 2014 there will be enough DOA5U supporters so that it will actually have a chance in being in.
Lol thanks I hope your right
I totally forgot about Skullgirls. Downloaded the demo once, never bothered to buy it because the demo included the only character I cared about, then totally forgot about it.
Your welcome, I hope so to
I'm guessing it was Cerebella?
You should get the full game, the story is great and although I thought the demo was bleh I liked the full game, it actually plays differently. Also there will be free dlc characters, stages, ect.
I'd be more impressed with your guess if it wasn't a 50/50 chance lol.
Yup... this either means a delayed release fr the Xbox fans or Xbox gets fucked once again (likely the latter) it really seems M$ are being stupid or Hayashi really doesn't like Xbox too much, good job after 5U I'll be getting future DoA and NG games on the PS4
Not really surprising since the costumes were a playstation vita exclusive from the beginning, but Tecmo promised they would be available for DOA5U on all consoles, whether it's DLC or unlockable isn't made clear. anyways, I don't think anyone has a problem with xbox in this situation.
Oh it was Filia? Lol the reason why I thought it was Cerebella was because she and Peacock were the most liked
nono, it was Cerebella. I couldn't care less about the rest of the characters. The nurse was kinda hot, but not my style.
The game not being at evo doesn't really have to do with this. Evo is pretty much all 2d fighters besides tekken. Soul calibur won't be there this year, neither will VF.
Are the pre-orders gonna be available from american sites as well? Don't wanna order overseas.
