Marie Rose info thread

[tekkin88]

Thanks tekkin, post edited

When you say she has 8 sabakis, they are all the transitions into Rondo, aren't they?

Yes, it seems like it'll be kinda like Unshu in that regard. What's also interesting is that her 6k is a sabaki, I'm not sure if any other character has a kick as a sabaki. Flower wheel stance seems like a good tool as it's regions are mid punch and mid kick but it also has an OH option for people who try to retaliate while you're mid stance. Rondo seems like it'll be a sidestep with only P+K as an option out of it but has guard break properties.

Do you seriously believe they'll leave the crowd that has kept the series alive since 1999 without the extra update and character¿

Have new details for the update been released? And if so where can I find them

 

[TRI Mike]

There's some info around in the internet. Even some believing we won't get Marie Rose.

 

[Tyaren]

I do think so too. She's obviously a character specifically catering to the Japanese market and she is the only real reason to check out the new arcade version. There's no reason anymore, if anyone can have her on the console versions...

 

[TRI Mike]

I'm pretty sure we will. It'd be an absurd move to leave her arcade exclusive.

Take a look at her move list guys. I love the look of the inputs.

EDIT: Oops somebody already posted it.

Your acting like a lot of westerners don't lose their shit over the Japanese culture. Vocaloid was popular enough to get their game localized overseas there's a market for that stuff over hear as well.

i think they should just add a toddler in the game, make it 18 years old and see if they get away with that

Arcades don't make as much money as consoles do. If they did Tecmo would not have quit making DOA games for them. Since vanilla DOA5, TN has been trying to make DOA more recognized as a competitive game. In Japan, the competitive players are all in arcades, not on consoles, hence why there's a DOA5U:AE in the first place. TN is also granting another concession to the JPN competitive players by holding location tests. In the west, arcades are dead and all competitive players are on consoles. TN is not going to shit all over the work they put into making DOA seem legitimate by having the vast majority of competitve DOA players only have access to an inferior version. Chances are that there will either be a side by side release or a slight delay between arcade and console (to squeeze out a few dollars from impatient people).

That makes a lot of sense. Doing otherwise would be some of those retarded moves TN does from time to time. I'll remain optimistic. I just hope they don't charge us 10 bucks for a single character, tho. I just paid 40 bucks 2 months ago.

Shytzoo from NorCal translated her strings into english so far; http://i.imgur.com/4iMeKMo.jpg

"Impress" is actually "Empress", he made a typo.

Come on people, besides any licensing issues, what character for any recent fighter remained arcade exclusive?

I'm expecting roughly 10 bucks in 3 months after arcade release for this character at the minimum.

$10?! That would be a huge slap in the face for people who play Core Fighters and only have to pay $3.99 per character. If anything, they should just release a patch where they give us her for FREE along with the regular Lorelei stage.

$10 may be a little high compared to the other characters so she could be cheaper.

But in all honesty people need to get paid. TN gave us 2 free stages and a DLC pack, not to mention some previous DLC when people upgraded to 5U.

They could make her free but I'm guessing there will be another balance patch soon too.

So if they gotta recoup cost she's fair game imo.

Looks like Eliot has a new rival for smallest breasts.

Jokes aside, I'm hoping she's better than the latest batch of new characters. Also...

-Fighting Style-
"A fighting art that has no rigid stance and emphasizes fluidity. In addition to these particular strength-reversing movements that leave an opponent's attack powerless, she employs tricky attacks that make the most of her small stature."

I'm hoping your translation is pretty accurate, because if it is, I'm excited to see how she'll play. Fluidity and tricky hits are my favorite :3 I'm really placing all of my hopes on her being awesome, because I'll need someone to replace Pai when DOA6 comes out.

I honestly don't see how it could be translated all that differently if that helps. lol

 

[MrMoon360]

No, seriously. Wtf Team Ninja? Stop doing this. Guard breaks that leads to negative frames make no sense at all. Even less sense if the disadvantage is -21

Maybe there is a typo in there or something.

Guard break with negative frames AND no pushback makes even less sense.

 

[RoboJoe]

Guys, you're all forgetting that tomorrow is the first location test. You can bet that people are going to notice something like -21 on the only move from that stance and say something. TN will probably listen to japs more than western folks. Probably.

Well yeah, they have the arcade release lol. Plus let's not forget that their suggestions and complaints are a reason why the ground game is the way it is in 5U right now. They didn't favor the viable ground game in Vanilla, nor are they a fan of guarantees in DOA.

I believe those were Japanese casuals. I'm thinking the people at the loketest will be a different kind of beast, especially because of people from other games curious about DOA will probably try it.
