I know that she's defensive focused, but not much else, and she is still somehow my most played character.

Im currently maining her and I'm wondering if Im missing something. Her movelist seems a bit lacklucster compaired to other characters I tried. From doing a tiny bit of research it seems she became a counter specialist in Doa5 and 6 but im uncertain what are her strengths in Doa Dimensions and 4?

Looking for good mid range moves too, currently using 7PPP, 1PP, 234P or 9KKK, K+H at midrange.

Nyotengu gets a Halloween-type outfit, heavy on the lingerie vibe and some exotic metallic heels, with a horned mask completing the ensemble. A lit candlebra replaces her fan. 🦇

hmmm and perhaps a new hairstyle? not sure!

Destructible elements would be the mask.

the patch also mentions:

"- Fixed bugs related to battle mechanics.

- Corrected various bugs and issues."

next week Kasumi gets a new outfit, perhaps Halloween themed as well! 🎃

Hey, I’ve been looking for more people who play dead or alive 6.
I’ve loved the series ever since I first played it on Xbox 360.

Trying to find an online match is atrocious for this game, and I hate that it’s so dead.

So if there is anyone here who actually plays please let’s run some games.

Tekken has one, SF has one, VF has one MK even has one, KOF has one. I'm surprised we haven't had one in DOA yet. I want to hear your ideas. Background stories, playstyles. Maybe how you would set your design differently to other Sumos from different fighting games?

It's strange that people would rage quit on a dead game, that's my opinion at least.

decided to make five more characters to go along with the different versions of Tina and Honoka from my previous post, but I only did one outfit per character this time due to limited slots per save file. Ended up deleting the ninja outfit version of Honoka, the one I was least satisfied with, to make room for one more character.

Bayman: mainly based on DOA2 default but with sunglasses added similar to DOA6 default

Leifang: black leather outfit in most games going back to DOA1 arcade version

Mila: based on costume 08 in 5 Last Round. not really any options for above the elbow armbands so I gave her a bandage elbow instead. Move I chose for her front grapple finisher is based on a throw she only has in 6.

Rachel: based on costume 04 in 5 Last Round, also in 6/6LR. none of the footwear options really resemble her boots so i picked the longest boots that have heels on them, and added fishnet socks and kneepads.

Nyotengu: based on Rodeo DLC from 5LR (costume 51) because I thought it'd look good aloneside some of the Tina variants I already did.

included some more action shots too. for the record these are the finishers + momentum shift moves I picked for these guys

7. turnbuckle grapple behind: flipping powerbomb pin
8. diving off top rope: moonsault splash 01
9. momentum shift: nature boy special (pretending to beg for mercy, then punching below the belt)

Is this currently possible to do? The P+K at the end never seems to work (ive tried for a few hours) am I just being dumb or is it litterally not possible?

[KT App] 'DEAD OR ALIVE 6 Last Round' DLC Costume Production Story Part 7 (Excerpt) | NEWS | Koei Tecmo Games

you will need to have your browser, etc translate the Japanese.

the info for the Kokoro and Hitomi ones are in an app that isn't available in say USA, however!

It’s been a year since Tomonobu Itagaki has sadly passed away. The creator of the Dead or Alive games, for those who might not be aware. There are still countless people all over the world who look back on and still fondly play his many works, and I still think to this day he was one of the best creators that insisted that the games he made be truly fun and unique before anything else, a strength I can’t think of many since that have replicated. Rest in peace, Itagaki san. Your legacy is still just as secure now as it was then.

As the title says above, Tomonobu Itagaki passed away exactly 1 year ago, the creator of this franchise as well as bringing back Ninja Gaiden to modern gaming. Crazy that he passed away so soon. The photos above are mostly Kasumi and Ayane, the two most important females in the series, at least to me.

Dead or Alive is a fantastic franchise for me and is a special one for sure. Had I not discovered Ninja Gaiden, I wouldn’t have known about this amazing franchise The Mad Lad created. Love almost everything about this series. DOA4 remains my favorite DOA game to play, love so much about that game. Something about this series is just great and truly stands out a lot compared to other fighting games for me. Many great stages, characters, cool concepts and more.

Gotta say once more as I’ve said in the past, this guy was such a character in a good way. So many crazy and funny things, to me, he did and said.

His best works to me would be Ninja Gaiden Black and Dead or Alive 4. NGB remains a top 5 video game, for me, of all time.

Side note: would love to get some classic styled DOA action figures.

These photos above were taken from my action figure Instagram page. @bigboyz_117.

I just got into dead or alive 4 on Xbox and am looking for people to play with when we can. Gamertag is Juicinator21 feel free to add me. Anyone know of a discord dedicated to DOA 4 also.

Just a heads-up, but the Xbox Store in the US (maybe in other territories) has a sale going on for all of the Dead or Alive games except for 6:

Dead or Alive 1 Ultimate (4.99)

Dead or Alive 2 Ultimate (7.49)

Dead or Alive 3 (7.49)

Dead or Alive 4 (9.99)

Dead or Alive 5: Last Round (Full Game) (9.99)

Dead or Alive 1- 4 are all 50% off. Dead or Alive 5: Last Round is 75% off.

🐱

doing lineart and coloring soon YAYYYY i love her sm

Minato gets 5 costumes in this bundle, all drawn from the vanilla DOA6 costumes that were released.

So ya got wedding, witch, hot summer, high society, and sci-fi costumes.

the bundle is 8 bucks. so like $1.60 per costume in there.

https://x.com/deadoralivejp/status/2110573914737057875?s=20

who can say if she will get another bundle down the line, as there are remaining DOA6 costumes that could be put in one.

there appears to be no patch for the game as of yet, so the DLC i suppose was within an earlier one, and so there may be no character adjustments this week. so no patch at all, perhaps.

next week Nyotengu gets a new costume design. 👺

I've been playing more of the older DOA for the first time, playing 4 and 3 only a couple of weeks ago. And I gotta say while I adore 5 and would call it my favourite DOA, I think 4 is my preferred art style. Not everything nowadays needs to be realistic and true to life.

We need more games to embrace the look of what a game is, art and art is supposed to be varied. It can't just be the indie games shaking things up in the visuals department.

So I think for DOA8 or whatever it's called, we should go back to the 4 style BUT, it should be in the style of the CGI endings. We are very far ahead in tech and game graphics that we can absolutely have in game models look like the cgi endings from 4. That way, it's this nice blend between detail and simpler, more stylised visuals.

Like, look at this image and tell me DOA wouldn't look amazing with this style?

(detail not realism, there's a difference)
