Community Team NINJA Halloween Costume Contest

[Crext]

Well, in all fairness the contest in regards to votes is pretty much decided at this point, where I'd believe most people have either voted or made up their mind at this point.

 

[DestructionBomb]

I love this Halloween Thread. Loves of posts for me to laugh & enjoy reading . I definitely want to quote some of them and start trolling but I fear their poor souls can't handle it

 

[Brute]

Ok, wait, where is Princess Kasumi now? I was bashed for doing what all of these people are now doing when in fact, mine was a reminder and not me asking for votes?

Remember when I ended this discussion a while back?

That would be why no one is having it anymore.

Comment was deleted. Thank you, Team Ninja.
@Princess Kasumi, how about you keep your salt for the case my design really wins a top spot? Which is not going to happen, rest assured! I somehow just don't feel it.

Are they talking about you? Because I have never seen you fish for votes. Unlike other Marie Rose designs. Don't worry your design is one of the few that actually fits her personality and style.

Yep, they are talking about me... :/ And I am pretty sure this is the not so princess-like "Princess Kasumi". XD There are not too many Danes, that have a personal problem with me...

 

[Lady Tengu]

Here's my votes!

Warning! Its A lot but I believe everyone deserves A chance. (Character Wise) Even though i don't play some.

I loved this comment and definetly agree, people are always complaining that they want more "casual" costumes for Marie Rose but they keep forgetting that her style is pretty much supposed to be gothic lolita, if you want casual girl next door stick to hitomi (who ironically had lolita outfits on doa4).
Can someone tell me what was being said on that fb comment ?

Can someone tell me what was being said on that fb comment ?

A "Michell Haugaard" addressed Team Ninja, that all of the DOA community would obviously hate that design and that I begged to get to the top. (What top exactly? The vote isn't even over yet!) That person also posted a screen of her having a Facebook conversation with someone else, where they discussed exactly that, also stating, I was so desperately begging for votes.

 

[Brute]

Nope. We're not starting this again.

This thread is for the contest, not gossip.

 

[chako33]

Alright, I guess votes are closed now right? Oh wait I don't know about US-time if it's still (sorry for my confusion).

 

[Kronin]

Mafia Hitomi wasn't that popular, before it was spotlighted on Dead or Alive Game's Facebook page for days. When all costumes were uploaded in a row on Facebook, I checked their popularity regularly and when it was posted here, most said, they didn't really see it for Hitomi. But indeed, the design is great and so is the artwork.
Let's see, how influential Facebook is over the separate voting in the end...
I am really thrilled to see the top 10! XD (I don't think, my design has any chances to get in the top ten this time.)

I understand what you say, but personally I never based the popoularity of the outfits on the likes of Facebook, because appear evident like really few people are not putting there the preference for their outfits. It's possible that they could end to give a proper proportional picture of the contests, but I'm not so sure about. However we will see.

Btw, people keep talking about last contest, but I realized I kinda missed that one. Is there somewhere to view and look up the results of that one?

A lot of the most popular costumes aren't really Halloween related. Do you think TN will still put the popular but none Halloween related entries in game, or instead pick a less popular but more relevant design?
Outfits like enchantress Helena, phoenix Leifang, cabaret Lisa and black butterfly Phase 4, although they're great designs, are not strictly related to Halloween.

 

[Tyaren]

Thanks so much for the overview, Shiranui!

I can imagine, your design being in top ten this time! I really hope so!

Outfits like enchantress Helena, phoenix Leifang, cabaret Lisa and black butterfly Phase 4, although they're great designs, are not strictly related to Halloween.

Phase 4 looks dark and Halloween-ish to me.

I think the real problem is, that not every outfit will be possible in game. Queen of Hearts Nyotengu would be an absolute clipping nightmare and Peacock Lisa is hardly possible to make in this console generation with the hundreds of feathers.

 

[Shiranui]

I don't know what's going to happen, but yes, I agree. Many outfits not related at all to Halloween. Strange Halloween pack if these ones were the ones in the pack.

I can imagine, your design being in top ten this time! I really hope so!

Thanks but I don't see this happen. I think real results will be different from this FB rank.
And it's pretty obvious my design was surpassed by Queen of Hearts. I took too seriously Halloween theme, I was too conservative with Nyotengu concept and I think it was too evil looking for DoA.
Well, I tried and i did what i like. No regrets

Well, TN already made it in the previous Halloween pack with the Dragon outfit for Jann Lee, the Princess shinobi (I love it) for Kasumi, the Viking one for Bass, the Gladiator one for Leon, so I don't find the problem XD

By the way everything depends from what you mean for Halloweenish: in my definition all the outfits related to dark figures, characters from fairy tales, mithycal creatures or historical kind of characters, are all pretty good for a such pack even if some of them are far from the standard idea of Halloween

But then I believe that some outfits not completely Halloweenish are well accepted if appear good on the characters.
