Lets talk about redesigns

[Leifang12]

Leifang winning the tournament and finally getting some recognition for her power would be so cool.

You’re absolutely right, her chinese dress in 5 was tasteless. What ruined it was the back of it, so plain. I also liked her DOA3 ending dress as well. I still played her Cheongsam dress, I guess I was being forgiven lol. Speaking of stages, I hope each characters gets their, but we’ll see. Another thing, would it be cool if Leifang beats Jann Lee and become the new DOA6 champion? Not only Jann Lee would have to hand her his title, but acknowledge and respect her as a strong independent woman?

I hated the back of her cheongsam dress. And I hated the cuffs, the gold strings going down, her shoes (the height of the heel is terrible) and I hate the gold bands around the dress, the top and around the arms! They are way to thick and clunky looking! I hate that the dress is so stiff and makes her look short and stumpy. I liked the old design way more where the skirt part became slimmer towards the bottom of the dress!! Way more elegant ! I feel like Leifangs torso is way to long and her legs are too short! I want her to have a shorter torso in general and longer legs !

so lei fang cheongsam doa 4 is better than her 5?

They look 99% the same, only the phoenix pattern varies a bit. The only big difference, an that makes me a bit sad to this day, even now in DOA6, are the gone, smooth and beautiful cloth physics of DOA4. Leifang's qipao/cheongsam, Kokoro's kimono and Helena's Greek goddess costumes had superior cloth physics and they aren't even matched by DOA6's. Yeah, they were a bit unrealistic in how light and flowy the cloth felt, realistically cloth should be a bit heavier, but it was so beatiful to look at. Now, in both DOA5 and DOA6, cloth seems way too heavy and inflexible.

Knowing doa there's a good chance we'll get the costumes but my biggest worry about this game going more competitive is it cutting down on them. I like Hitomi's gi and it makes since for the game's direction but I hope she has a lot of her casual stuff too. I know it's still early but just throwing out a concern

I don't think we need too worry really. They confirmed lots of cotumes in the game and they confirmed returning outfits. I'm pretty sure they will have the classics back. It's also less work for them. On top of that some of the default outfits that we have seen might not actually be the default outfits. The same happened in DOA5. Some of the characters were presented to us first in different costumes. Leifang for example in that circus costume. characters might just appear in a different costume in story mode first. Zack's default costume also seems to be unclear. He's shown in-game in his muay thai gear, but his official character render shows him in a blue pinstriped suit.

They said they are working hard to include as many outfits as possible, didn't they? So better be careful XD
I guess we will get 4-5 unique outfits per char with recolors for additional padding… basically like DoA 4 and 5 Vanilla.

I don't agree. The gold border around the gown is way to thick! There is no design on the back and the green on the inside has no print design what so ever. It also needs to be smaller and more elegant like in DOA2U/3 and DOA4. The braces are longer and looks cheap. The shoes are ugly and the heel is waaaay to short . The garment looks ill fitting looks way to big for her. You are 100% correct about the cloth psychics being inferior in DOA5 and DOA6. I don't even like Helena's new DOA6 outfit when it moves. It looks so clunky and weird. I like DOA2Us cloth psychics the best. I found DOA4 a little too flowy and not heavy enough, but I still prefer that over DOA5.

I hope we get many outfits and maybe a recolouring option. That would be awesome !

 

[crapoZK]

I just want Zack's legacy costume to be in the game without being a DLC. That's my shit lmao.

That's a Leifang fanatic for ya! XD Well, I stand corrected then. As a designer, a fussy one, I know that an accummulation of even little flaws can ruin a design as a whole.

Oh, I hope not! XD A majority of people either have terrible taste or they are colorblind.

 

[DestructionBomb]

I mean, there are some outfits that can look better in a completely different color. That Hayabusa green one looked fucking terrible, but I did like Hayate's conversion of his new outfit into red & black color swap that was at EVO. Almost makes me want to use him because of that since it looked cool to me.

Haha I am actually a fashion designer, so I am really nit-picky about a lot of things with clothes and details. I wish I could be a consultant with TN about DOA6 !!! That would be amazing ! But I am a real fanatic when it comes to Leifang and how she is supposed to look ! I have a certain mindset for her I would like to happen and bring her back to her roots in DOA2 !! A girl who is much more about inner strength and calm nature, while still being happy, independant, smart and a bit cocky !! I want her to be more serious and not so happy all the time

Many people have terrible tastes and I don't like customisation where it ruins the aesthetic of a character (I look at YOU Tekken 7), but I do think recolouring would be really cool in DOA. So one outfit and when you have picked the character and are scrolling up and down to see the costumes, you can click right of left to scroll through the different colour combinations you have made

 

[Onryoki]

I’d rather have collaboration DLC returning in DOA6. The samurai warriors DLC was one of the best DLC’s in the game.

Edit: yeah I agree, we need more costumes that are fashionable and fit the character’s personality instead of the random costumes characters get that don’t even fit them.

 

[delSai]

Only do collabs when the license isnt a problem please.

I hated all the collaboration DLC personally xD It just ruins the whole original character design and makes them into something they are not. But thats just my opinion.

and 100% YES to the last part of you post/statement !

I have to disagree with you on the collaboration part.
I mean look at Kasumi as Oichi and Leifang as Lady Hayakawa.

The costumes are on point and fit them very well.

They are not my favourite . I see what you mean they fit the character, but I personally like it more when they create totally new costumes and not a collab. It's like "these characters look alike, so we might as well dress them the same"

It's the same problem people have with Leifang, Pai, Ling and Chun. They always compare those 4 ! And same with the new one Diego! He looks like Brad Burns and Miguel from Tekken combined.

I just wish they would go out on a limb and create more "unique" and exciting stuff and not so generic. But I would say the first pink outfit for Kasumi would look great on Kokoro too.

 

[Cadaveri]

the game still looked good at EVO, but damn did it look good at E3 in comparison

 

[crapoZK]

One was PC and one was Xbox One (?)

It kinda makes sense.

I may be mistaken but the EVO build was being displayed on console right?

EDIT: EVO build was in fact on PC.

Pretty sure it was on PC, just using Xbox controllers.
Talking about the EVO build

 

[Cadaveri]

Nah It was a PC by iBuypower I believe, think I saw a tweet where they(team ninja/doatec) thanked them for providing the PCs or something

 

[Tyaren]

Can we stop spreading misinormation? There was only the PC version available on EVO.

The game got a lighting downgrade unfortunately.

I in return need to stop making jokes about the secret, uncensored Japanese version or people will believe this as well. XD
