  • Wow, the competition on PSN is severely lacking tonight... I should not be winning this much.

    You should be so lucky. I was stuck in a lobby with ElectrifiedMann for 3 hours. Got the tar beaten out of me.
    Whats up man? How do you feel about some of the changes on DOA5U?

    I'm not terribly happy about the health increase but it makes sense with the emphasis on more guaranteed damage. I like that they seemed to have taken some inspiration from Virtua Fighter in terms of the different forms of stun and vulnerable states. The changes to Mila make sense and I think make her a stronger character overall.

    Before, she felt really limited in the way that there were only so many options you could go for at any given time and they all felt hugely predictable or just straight-up useless. She plays like a completely different character now, in a good way. Ein was of course changed to fit in 5U's style and I think they made him work really well but the encouraged reliance on rising K seems like a misstep.

    I think for the amount of moves that only stun on counterhit they gave him, they need some extra speed or movement advantage. It feels like his options are a bit too limited but, like I said, I've only had so much time with it. I also think the bar for execution in the game has been raised so I'm really stoked about that. What about you? I'd love to hear what you think!
    Thank God for the F2P PS3 ver. DOA5U is pretty slick and the netcode's much better. Mila's really revamped and Ein is cool. Busa's FAST!

    His animations are just multi-hits, but his iframes are still slow as ever. His new moves are i15, i20 and i21.

    Oh, wow, nvm then. I'll lay the blame on lag in that case. I see Mila as fairly quick but Busa seemed to blaze right past her. Huh.
    If anyone can tell me that the online is markedly better, I'll go out and buy 5U right now. Otherwise, I'll maybe wait on it...

    It handles lag in a different way. You'll have far fewer unplayable matches, that much is for sure.
    Fucking sick of this garbage netplay. 1-5 bars, it's all terribly inaccurate. DOA5U better be quite the improvement.

    The netcode will make you hate DOA5 just because the lag won't allow you to do anything. It rewards you for button mashing and reckless offense.
    Max - Characters having sit-down stuns is broken. Also because some (Hitomi, etc) don't have Useful SD stuns. LMFAO!!!!

    I'm really enjoying the health reduction and balance changes while playing with Mila. I feel like I have a bit more power to work with.

    Funny you say that since everyone's been raising Heck about the patch ruining Mila to the point of top Mila players dropping her. She's still as awesome as always XD

    Seriously, i was surprised. Finally a mila player that isnt crazy pissed by the patch.

    Lol, well, I mean, I'm not stoked about some changes but I'm doing 50% combos for free and a finished tackle does a satisfying bit of damage. *shrug* I don't see anything character-ruining about any of it. Maybe I'm just not on their level. But as someone who solely uses Mila, I don't feel like I'm trying to control the opponent the entire match to win, I can do some damage now.
    "I'm not saying Helena is broken... Gen Fu, Helena, and Akira are all broken." MaxDrago needs his Twitter shut down.

    He's gone on about this shit for so long, I'm sure he's being ignored by TN. I can't see why they would waste so many resources having their translators extract ludicrous ideas from Max's tweets.

    Yes, Hitomi is so low-tier lol. I don't have trouble competing with anyone as her, dude needs to level up.
    I'm not saying Helena is broken. But the amount of guessing that comes with fighting her is way too much. "

    Does Maxdraggo really have any evidence to his tweets or does he just tweet for the sake of tweeting.

    He's just a scrub utilizing his voice. It's too bad scrubs lack sense. I have no idea what's up with the guy.

    Good news is that I doubt Team Ninja or anyone else takes his "suggestions" seriously. So at best, he provides amusement. At worst, spam.
    "Weaken the power of the throw Helena has in her BKO stance. It's too strong for the way it looks. " LMAO!!!
    AegisOrnus
    AegisOrnus
    Lol, no. I will not give Max credit as he continually spams TN with such crazy requests. It's too strong for the way it looks? Mila's TD need more recovery? Brad needs his stances gimped? Hitomi needs defense breaking properties on more attacks? 6-point holds? It's like he doesn't even try to play the actual game.

    Ok, I feel better then, lol.
    WTF IS WRONG WITH DOA TONIGHT! I've lost +10 matches in a row because I literally can't counter and my inputs are all delayed. Unacceptable.
    Lol @ panicking the higher ranks with Mila. All of a sudden, they start freaking out and mash attacks to stuff me. I love you, Mila!
    it absolutly would be. Who is suggesting 6 points? There are not enough high and low moves to warrant this.
    AegisOrnus

    I see it all over twitter, spoken in lobbies, other forums. If I go and watch these people play, they're pretty terrible at the game. They basically have a gameplan they repeat over and over and it gets countered. Then they get mad and start spouting off that we should have 6 point holds so that people can't randomly counter anymore.
    AegisOrnus
    AegisOrnus
    I think it's Max536Drago, he seems to be one of the worst offenders in terms of being having a scrub mentality and constantly whining to TN about this and that.
    What's up with all the requests for 6 point holds? Why would we need this? Seems like a reduction to active frames would be much better.
    So [1] = Best connection ever, [4-5] = Worst connection possible. So are we in post-patch bizarro world? Online seems more broken now...

    4-5 seems great for me. 1 seems great sometimes. 2-3 seems shitty most of the time.
    I'm no longer homeless, still in the bay area, I got my own stable internet, and we got the patch. Looks like I'm set to get my ass on DOA5!
    I don't understand why players are using the largest health setting. The normal setting is so perfect!

    They don't realize that this game's "Normal" health setting is DOA4's "Largest" already by default...
    AegisOrnus
    AegisOrnus
    I had arguments with people saying both normals are exactly the same, therefore so are the largest settings. They have to be blind.
    I cannot seem to get around Kokoro with Mila. Once she's in, she's staying there. Keeping Kokoro out's a chore too. Not sure what to do...
    Rikuto

    I don't have any advice for that specific matchup right now, but I can recommend spending a night or two playing with Kokoro to get her flow down and try to figure out her limitations. That's the best way to understand a rough matchup problem.

    Thanks for the advice.
