DOA5LR "Relax Ayane-chan!" - Ayane Casual Discussion

[Jyakotu]

The Aloha outfit is love, the Aloha outfit is life. If it distracts my opponents, then I've already won the game.

^Too bad for you, I don't pay attention to that sort of detail as I play.

Just a heads up for anyone asking to play online with me. I'm not going to be playing DOA online for a little while. Offline pacing is where I need to be right now to increase reactions and muscle memory. I've had long sets with NykNyks today, took me a bit to readjust, but once I did I had a lot of firepower packing in my play, footsies, spacing, defense and offense.

Playing online lately has been making feel very sluggish and subpar. I went like 38-8 my favor today, and 5-0 in a FT5. That felt simply amazing for offline play (I mean I normally go 10-20+ something online anyway but it's not always satisfying because online forces me to play a certain way due to lag, and I cannot stand that kind of feeling).

Once I get a thicker read on your play, I can pretty much dominate with minimal mistakes. If I am to be a stronger player, I need to continue furthering those results as one. It's really easy for me to say "it's just online and it doesn't matter", because it honestly doesn't. But it's bothersome at times when certain things happen that shouldn't or you're seriously not allowed to react on retaliation.

I will be playing online again at some point, just not right now. This does not include online dojo, however.

Ayane must be precise as possible, not sloppy. That never gets the job done for me.

 

[Jyakotu]

It's too bad you asked to play me online while I was at home with my slow Internet connection. I usually play online when I'm back on campus, where the connection is faster and more consistent, since I used a wired connection on my PS3. Whenever you come back online to play DOA5, I'll be waiting.

 

[iHajinShinobi]

Alrighty Mr.Aloha.

P.S. I am totally calling you that from now on. It shall forever be your nickname from me, lol.

I think that's why I hate trying to play the game properly online and why any wins I get rarely feel satisfying. Because I feel like I'm being forced to play the game in a different way, making execution sacrifices, and as result hesitate a lot more. I don't mind Online Dojos, though I can still feel my timings being off . The worst feeling is when you either beat someone online that you know would body you, or you lose to someone you know you'd body offline *coughsyurlungurcoughs*. As a result, if I play online, it's pretty much "just for fun" at this point (which it can be at times if you don't take it seriously).

I think the point when I gave up on taking online seriously for training is when I noticed that it was screwing up my offline timings forcing me to have to go into the lab after the online session to "fix" my timings. People on Ranked are also huge cunts lol, especially to Ayane players. Also, I'm guessing we're all getting names now. I'll be Forcey, and I suppose you can be Hajie.

YES, exactly this! And I hate it when my i10 jab loses to a i12-i15 frame high or mid in neutral at R1F. That's when I give up on all things life.

I just played a match with 1 bar lag with Ayane and it was terrible. Especially after playing such a long night of offline sets with a friend who is just getting into DOA. You just can't compare the two experiences.

Pretty much. What I wouldn't give for every online warrior to fully understand why offline warriors shit on DOA Online so much. It's one of those things where you have to play in both environments to truly appreciate the differences. I will straight up say that Ayane is just plain stupid in 1 bar. Both to use and play against.

 

[Jyakotu]

Even my friend agreed that offline is superior to online in every way. He's just now starting to play DOA Online, but he's smart and reserves judgement until playing offline with people who know what the fuck they're doing (i.e., me). Really wish Team Ninja could fix the net code or at least make it stable. This is why I usually try to set the connection criteria to 5 and the region the SAME. In that rare moment I get a 5 bar match, it's like playing offline.

 

[iHajinShinobi]

Naw, even 5-bar matches are laggy, there is no resemblance to offline and 5-bar at all. I can still get hit for trying to punish someone in 5-bar.

5-bar is the best as it can get online, but it is definitely not the same feel as an offline set at all.

 

[Jyakotu]

Are you sure? I've ran into a 5 bar match once and it felt as close to offline as possible. No dips in connection and no lag whatsoever. It was a unicorn match, which I won. Lol

 

[iHajinShinobi]

I am 100% certain that 5-bar is not the same as offline at all. There is always lag in DOA online. I play other Cali players online sometimes in 5-bar and it is not the same feel as an offline set. Kasumi doing 6PK into a delayed 2K low is easy to block on reaction offline. I have to buffer my crouch for the same thing online in 5-bar, should never have to buffer ahead of time.

And I should never get hi counter hit for throwing Kasumi's 4PK on block or whiff at all because I'm one of the few players that has it's punishment window down to a tee. And I get hit for trying to punish it online lol.

Out of curiosity, what is the latency of the monitor that you play DOA5U on? (E.g. 5ms, 8ms, etc.) I find that people that are accustomed to playing on large HDTV's tend to have no problem playing in lag, and hence think a good connection match is "not laggy" (when it actually is but they can't tell the bloody difference!)

But yeah, Hajin's right. No online match has ever felt like offline, no matter how good the connection may seem. You need to play consistent matches offline to truly appreciate the intricacies that can't be experienced online, ever. Every frame counts offline.

 

[Jyakotu]

I'm used to playing on a 22" HDTV, so maybe that's the difference?

 

[DestructionBomb]

The difference is, is that I am here. That is all.


Joking. Oh don't mind me...just uh...passing by.

 

[ShinMaruku]

The day Ayane gets nude is the day I declare victory. :E

 

[Aerospark]

Ayane was nude was in Razor's Edge, but she got pissed because terrorists ruined her vacation, so she committed mass murder on all of them + some fiends.

 

[ShinMaruku]

They went "Yeah" And when she chopped one's hand off he was like "Fuck you!" She then blew him up.

lol.

 

[ShinMaruku]

Yeah those guys are a riot in ng3:re

They are like "Come on mate" then when Ayane removes a hand, "FUCK YOU!"
The Ninjas just her , "Die alone."
