Also saw this on GFs

The top 3 most wanted future characters for DOA5U was

1.New Female
2.Irene
3.New Male

Kinda nice to see so many people want Irene, it would be cool to have a law enforcement figure in DOA

She's also the most picked character for my character and stage prediction contest:

I don't know though...I just don't see her being added to the roster any time soon. Also we can't go off of the "she's been a popular request among fans" b/c that's not how TN has been rolling lately w/ the new characters.

Phase 4 was planned from the get go and Marie was to get japanese players in the arcades

I guess...just would be nice to have a male for once. I kind of want TN to pull what Nintendo did. NOBODY thought the veteran Ike was returning to the SSB cast and then bam his face appears out of the blue. :p

I think it would be cool if DOA added a female agent simular to Decapre. Despite being a Cammy clone, she seems like a totally badass character. Even her sexy russian accent and the way she says "Execute" is badass. DOA needs someone simular to her

It's all about money... All the guys added in 5U were cheap or easy to add

Leon - he was half finished before vanilla even released
Ein - just combined DOA5 Hayate model with DOA4 Ein animations
Jacky - Sega partnership

This is why I don't think they'll add Tengu or another guy unless it's a Virtua. It would be too much effort for little financial gain. Just go to PS Store and see how many ratings each character has on Core Fighters (Spoiler: girls win). Or just go to TN's FB and look at the constant requests for Sonia and Niki, neither of which can even fight.

Yeah I don't understand why people don't think we are getting more males. We are definently getting Tengu (when is the question) and it's possible we can get more guys. I'm sure we may get another female but people should really chill a bit with the "TN only cares about girls" or as Rawbie says "think with their dicks" mentality.

No one wants to end up thinking like this idi.. Person

I would love more males in DOA (especially Ryo from Shenmue or a new male), but can we please not act like the male:female ratio is really far from each other? There are only 3 more females ahead of males

*gasp* you mean to tell me TN plans on treating this like an actual fighter and and not a tit simulator?! you know what would really help with that? a varied cast of characters maybe even a few guys.

We have a loli, a female with a darker skin tone, and a woman with grey hair (even if she's still less than 30), how much more variety do you need? :rolleyes:
In all seriousness though, I'll believe it when I see it. ;)

8k for a publicity move to add more attention to the game in the competitive demographic (hint: marketing expenses) is a drop in the bucket compared to the costs for developing a fighting game character. If they are making a playable DLC (not free) character for a post release game then it sure as hell needs to be marketable enough to deliver satisfactory returns.

A female fighter would be the safest investment on achieving that goal when considering the reputation DoA has and the overall fanbase that buy/support the game. That doesn't rule out the possibility of no new male fighter, but it neither delivers a confident assumption either.

A new male character is more/less in the same boat as requesting more new male costumes. It happens, but not because TN is doing it for maximum $$$ returns otherwise we would get swimsuits/fetish wear 100%. Instead it's more like 85% of the time.

they're going to have add more guys eventually it would be better if they do it now and get payed + sending the message that this is a fighting game, than to do it for DOA6 and get the same payment regardless if they're in the game or not.

Why not just add a male trap?

He'll technically be a male
He'll be just as beautiful as the DOA gals
He'd be a unique addition

Everybody wins!!!! lol

But seriously I am sure we'll get at least one more male, whether he is brand new, returning, or a guest
